Villa has succeeded in making his way
into the Sierra de la Silla with his

General Jacinto Trevino, from Gen.
Matias Ramos, commanding the gov
ernment cavalry in pursuit. The dis
patches said the bandit chieftain was
last seen in the vicinity of Pablon,
west of here. Other reports brought
here by ranchmen say that Jose Inez
Salazar is accompanying the band on
it's retreat and that Villa has an
nounced that, owing to continued i'll
health, he intends turning over his
command to SalaZar temporarily.
Following the discovery that resi-
dents of the city had assisted the Villa
forces in their attack upon the town
by sniping from windows, General
Trevino issued orders that all civil
ians must surrender their arms within
twenty-four hours or face a firing
squad.
AS result hundreds of arms, rang
ing from old muzzle-loaders to mod
ern high-powered rifles, were received
at the Quartet today.

W.. F. Tullar, one Of the leading
farmers residing south of Warren,
made an excellent showing at the

being the means of giving to the
Red River Valley some very valuable
publicity. At, the recent farm Crops
show held at Crookston Mr.. Tullar

RED LAKE COUNTY ~.
WILL REMAIN WET.

Red Lake county will remain an
oasis in the Red River Valley dry
district, as result Of the county
option election held in that county
Monday. It is reported that the IL
quor men won out by 219 votes.
There were 1885 votes cast at the
election. In spite of the cold wea-
ther, which prevailed on that day,
nearly every voter in the county
turned out to cast his vote.
There are seven saloons in the
county, five at Red Lake Falls and
two at Plummer. The population of
Red Lake county is composed very
largely of the French nationality and
in that respect marks a great con-
trast to that of the other counties,
which have gone dry in this state.
Few Irish, German or Scandinavians
reside in the county, it is alleged.

among their guests several famous
characters, among which were "Fat

Chef, Lafayette, VIM. Penn, Hobson,
Baron Munchausen, Ichabod Grain
and two College Chums from u. Of
M. A program of fun which savored
much of leaping vas rendered. ut
would need more than a press report
er to give it in detail. The music
deserves special mention. A trio of
Nharps rendered selections which ap-
pealed to all listeners. The organ
solo was good, the Baron responding
to several encores most cheerfully.
Dancing, singing, games, when sever
al leaped into matrimony and the
grand march followed by the serving
of dainty refreshments brought to a
close another one Of the clubs social
meetings.

Good Roads and Auto Tours.

At the organization meeting of the
auto owners of this city held at the
commercial club rooms Friday even
ing, DR.. G. S. Wattam was elected

to act as the secretary of the club.
The following committees were
named: Committee to draft a consti-
tuition, w. O. Braggans, O. H. Taral-
seth and Oswald Lind. Committee on
membership, G. A. Nelson and A. A.
Harris.
Considering that this is the initial
step towards the organization of an
auto club in this city, a fair repre-
sentation of car owners was present.
The sentiment Of the meeting was in
favor of good roads and club tours.
During the coming summer the club
intends to make several official tours
which will be the means of securing
for this city some valuable publicity
The committee on membership will
soon be at work to secure members
for the club and all public spirited
car owners in the city should give the
new club their best support. The
membership fee is nominal and il
everybody will unite in this cause, the
club will be able to secure some
very noticeable improvements on the
roads leading to the city.
The next meeting Of the club will
be held as soon as the committee or

MARSHALL COUNTY HAS
+s-. SMALL FIRE LOSS.

Marshall county ranks among those
in Minnesota whose fire loss during
the year ended December 81, 1915,
was considerably reduced as compar-
ed with the previous year.
This is shown by report issued by
Rober w. Hargadine, State Fire Mar
shall. During the twelve-month per-
iod covered by the report there were
II fires with an aggregate loss of
$7035. In the corresponding period
in 1914 there were II fires and the
loss aggregated $28,200. .....
This is an agreeable situation and
shows beyond a doubt that the peo-
pie of Marshall county are awake tc
the necessity of fire prevention
There is no doubt that the loss woulc
have been considerably greater if the
Individual householder had not taker
proper precautions for safeguarding
his property, by eliminating the rub
bish heap, keeping gasoline ano
other infammable materials in taei1
proper places and being watcsful o.

CONSOLIDATION IN BRISLET.

A consolidated school in town Of
Brislet would improve school condi-
tions greatly in said township. AS
the situation now stands the taxpay-
ers are supporting three schools end
two teachers. # they should build a
better typed school, as the one at
Boxville, or a: four roomed building,
the state would pay one fourth, not
to exceed two thousand dollars, the
district paying the rest. The school
could be so located that two drivers
could easily handle the transporta-
tion Of pupils to and from school, the
drivers receiving six cents per mile
per pupil. Two or four teachers can
teach better or cope more success
fully with little difficulties, that al
ways arise in schools, than one teach
er can working alone. They will
have more time also to spend on
each Individual than when his or her
work is crowded into little five or ten
minute periods The work could be
better divided, more time given to
each recitation and teachers could
supervise work and play with a great
deal more of satisfaction to them
selves and to their patrons than
when working alone.
Patrons seldom visit our one room
school and inspect the work Of their
children, unless there is a program
to hear. The one room school is not
so well lighted or ventilated but if
we had we'll lighted, ventilated and
comfortable school of two to -four
teachers, the patrons would all be
glad to come and visit at least once
year and discuss work with the
teacher and see how their children
are progressing in their work.
Let us all boost for Consolidated
school to be constructed in Brislet II
the summer of 1916.
