HORSES Still IN FINE FETTLE

At the Front in Mexico, General
Pershing's Camp, April 5.-By Aero
plane and Motor Courier to Columbus,
N. NJ, April "a cavalry officer
coming in from an eighty mile ride
last night said:
81 never saw a country where men
could ride without sleep and still keep
well as in the mountains"
The officer has ridden on scout
with the $50 picked men of the cav
airy.
1T seems to be the air at the alti-
tude of $500 to 10000 feet that keeps
the men up" he added.
The troopers in the course of their
so miles ride in two days made a 55-
mile ride literally up land down the
tops of a ridge of mountains.
Horses Mountain Climbers.
After taking their mounts safely
through this ride the caValrymen
made 25-mile dash across the couD-
try to head off the possibility of a Viii
lista rally at place which has been
under suspicion for several days. In
the mountain work the horses have
shown that they can climb almost any
mountain that a man can ascend.
Pride in their horses has become a
passion with the cavalrymen in their
mountain riding. Our horses" one
officer asserted, ARE just as good to-
They are fit for a charge right now.
Just let us get on Villas trail and we
will get him sure"
An officer here tells how he re-
treated from a house where he be-
lieved he was about to discover Villa
bandit. 1t was during the search of
mountain district where there was q
suspicion that Villa might be con-
cealed until his wounds healed.
Beats Hasty Retreat.
Many houses were under search
when this officer saw what he took to
be a wounded man lying in bed in
room. He swung open the door, pistol
in hand and hurried across the room.
The man in bed in the very poor light
looked more than ever like a wounded
bandit. The officer started to turn
down the blanket covering the Next
can but after one look, he fled-he
had discovered a case of smallpox.
The wonder of the cavalrymen now
searching the mountains is an Ameri-
can cowboy scout, who rides with the
troopers in these cold attitudes clad in
what the soldiers say is only a thin
cotton shirt.
You can read a newspaper through
it, is the soldiers description of the
shirt. The cowboy rides barehanded,
never appearing to mind the cold.

man troops against French positions
north of Caillette Woods but they were
without result.
The text of the communication fol-
lows:
I'm the Argonne district a surprise
attack delivered by us on one of the
enemy's trenches. near the highway
of st. Hubert. resulted in our inflict-
ing perceptible losses on our adVer-
saries and in bringing back to our lines
some twenty prisoners. During this
attack our artillery in the next sector
violently bombarded that portion of
the Ayocourt wood occupied by the
. Germans.
Attack Haucourt Village.
"During this same time the enemy
delivered a furious attack on the CEN
ter against the village of Haucourt. In
spite of repeated checks and of bloody
sacrifices they were successful in get
ting a foot during the night in this
village. We now hold the village I'M
der the fire of our dominating posi-
tions.
ION our side after a short prepara-
tory artillery fire we delivered a spirit
ed attack, our men coming out from
the redOubt of Avocourt, their pur-
pose being to connect this redoubt
with one of our works situated on the
boundary line of the wood to the
north of AvocOurt. During this oper-
alton, which was in a respect success
full, we occupied large portion of the
territory known as lie Bots Care and
took fifty prisoners.
''To the east of the River Meuse two
attacks on the part of the enemy di-
rected against our position to the
north of the Caillette wood resulted
only in serious losses to the Germans.
Renew Haucourt Attack.
Berlin. April 6.-German troops

northwest of Verdun, the war office
announced today.
In addition to very considerable
losses in killed and wounded the en-
envy lost eleven officers and 531 I'M

HOW ABOUT ROOSEVELT?
Salient Question to Be Hurled Before
&c. o. p. Committee Tomorrow.

Chicago, April 6.-"How About
Roosevelt?" is the flatfooted question
to be hurled into the meeting of the
subcommittee of the Republican ma
tional committee here tomorrow, G. o.
P, chieftains admitted today.
The colonePs announcement from
Oyster Bay has upset plans of the Re
publicans, who hope to name a tenn
porary chairman to the national con-
vention here tomorrow.
Despite the coloners statement,
Fred w. Upham, national committee
man from Illinois, declared today he
did not believe Roosevelt really is a
candidate.
II do think" said Upham, that
someone satisfactory to the colonel
may be selected, and l do think Roose-
welt will be consulted
Chairman Hil1es, another member
of the subcommittee, was expected in
Chicago late this afternoon.

for strong national defense and q pro-
tective tariff to be framed by a nom
partisan commission
Speculate OH Roosevelt.
Hartford, Conn, April 6.-Repub
lican leaders were concerned today
over Colonel Theodore Roosevelts
plans to visit this city next Tuesday
on his way to Pennington to see his
sister, the wife of Admiral William s.
Cowles. They see more than a coin
cidence in the fact that Tuesday is
the date of the Republican state con-
vention to elect Connectieut's l 4 Chi
cago delegates. To catch Connecticuts
delegation would admittedly be a bril-
liant coup.
Thirty-five senatorial district con-
ventions were held by the Republicans
throughout the state last Monday, ard
ever since there have been growing re-
ports of Roosevelt being favored as
the Chicago nominee. Just why he
should stop on his way back from
Boston to visit Mrs. Cowles, the Re-
publican leaders cannot fathom and
they admit it. Pennington is only
short trolley ride from Hartford.

Washington, April "a mammoth
Insurance fund, to draw from which
the only requirements are that one is

get a job, is under consideration by
the house labor committee today.
Representative Meyer London, New

He wants 1t to guarantee workingmen

Mr.. London's proposal, the first of
Its kind that has been considered by a
congressional committee. instructs the
president to appoint commission of
two organized labor representatives,
with the secretary of labor as chair
man.
The commission is to draft a gen
eral social insurance act along the
lines indicated and report within a
year to the president q plan to reduce
unemployment by furnishing work on
public improvements and developing
natural resources on public lands.

COUNTY BUYS A TRUCK
1t VIII Be Used in Working the
County Roads.

The county commissioners have pur-
chased a big five ton truck to be used
in working the roads in Shawnee
count. The truck cost $500
and is one of the most powerful in this
section of the country. The wheels
are steel shod and the rear tires are
flat and about eighteen inches in
width.
The old iron fence that has stood
in front of the court house for years
was in bad condition and the COM
missioners decided to have it removed.
1t was suggested that the new truck
might be used to advantage. The iron
posts were buried in the ground to d
great depth but when a chain was
thrown around them and attached to
the truck the truck snalled them out
of the ground as though hey were
straws.

T0DAY'S MARKET REPORT

Chicago, April 6.-WHEAT-Wheat
prices developed strength today as a result
of anxiety to the lateness of seeding in
the Northwest Some weakness at times,
however, was shown on account of predic-
lions of increased Argentine shipments to
Europe. Domestic crop reports were of a
mixed character. Opening prices, which
ranged from 1ac decline to A@ssc advance
with May at $1.1Sk to 1.1s12, and July at
S1.16a4 to S1.172s, were followed by mod
crate gains all around, interrupted tenn
porarily by a rather sharp setback.
The market later headed downward
again, influenced by welcome rains in the
southwest. The Ohio state report and bull
ish guesses regarding the government re
port to be issued tomorrow failed to act as
much of offset closing quotations were
unsettled. Il a sc to sd &c net lower, with
May at $1.17A and July at $1.16A.
CORN-Corn reflected the changes in the
wheat market. For the most part trading
was confined to pit spectators. After
opening unchanged to Ac higher, prices
scored further upturns, though not with
out undergoing transient dips.
Gossip of export sales tended to sustain
the market ia the late dealings. The close
steady at Ac to sc net advance.
OATS-Oats hardened with other grain.
Business. however. lacked volume. Stedi-
ness was the rule in provisions. There was
but little pressure to SELL.

PEACE PREVAILS


tContinued from Page One.l
mitteeman question according to lead
erS inSureS an entirely harmonious
convention. Mr.. E. E. e. McJimsey,
the temporarily chairman called the
convention to order at 11:15 o'clock
and delivered the keynote speech.
Attacks State and National.
Severe criticism of the Democratic
party's tariff policies and President
Wilson's handling of Mexican affairs
was made by McJimsey. Mr. McJim-
sey also severely arraigned the pres
ent Democratic administration in Mis-
souri,.
IF the Republicans of Missouri
said he, shall this year fail to res
cue this mighty empire from the
ruinous rule of the lilliputian layout
who have played such fantastic tricks
at legislation these last three years.
they should then confess themselves
not only incapable but unworthy of a
great and glorious opportunity"
Mr.. McJfmsey said regarding the
present administration:
''WatchfuI Woodrow"
1.-THE tariff is by no means the only
mistake of the Democratic party.
There's Waiting Woodrow's monstrous
muddling in Mexico, for example.
Were it not for the. tensity of inter-
est in the tremendous issues that hang
upon that appalling tragedy now be-
ing enacted over the seas, our pitiful,
not to say criminal, policies with refer
ence to the now three years revolution
with their attendant ruin in Mexico
long since had shamed US into the
doing of a duty there as clear as light
and more damning in its non-perfor-
nance than any duty of an internal
tional character in all the years from
Washington to WILSON,
HadIey for Vice President
While the August primaries i'll
which the candidates will be selected
still are four months away, it is be-
lieved the aspirants for the office will
be able during the convention to get
a true line on their real strength
Party leaders, therefore. predicted the
days following the meeting would see
the elimination of many of those
whose chances OF success in the pri-
mary are found not promising.
A "Hadley for vice president" boom
also was started. 1t was thought an
effort would be made before the con-
vention adjourned to rush through an
endorsement for Walter S. Dickey of
Kansas City, who has senatorial aspir-
ations. All delegates will go to Chi
cago uniustructed but the majority IA
vor Senator Weeks ard Charles w.
Fairbanks.
The usual committees were ap-
pointed after the conclusion of Mr.
McJimsey's speech and the conven-
ton adjourned until p. m.
