cans. was the superiority Of the horses
his men ride over the other mounts
available in northern Mexico.
Villa horses were described as race
horses" The fugitive has made a prac-
tice of seizing or buying outright the
finest horses available. Another prob
lem. the Americans said, lay in the fact
that through fear or ignorance the
Mexicans residing in country regions OF
Chihuahua give considerable allegiance
to Villa. In the cities they considered
the Carranza sentiment dominant. but
said that Villa was free to travel with
out danger in rural regions unless he
came into actual contact with Carranza
troops.
Missionaries Quit Mexico.
Among the arrivals were the follow
ing missionaries:
Rev and Mrs. A. c. Wright. Mr.. and
Mrs. L. B. Fritz, Miss Mary Blachly and
Miss Mary F. Long.
John NJ. Murray. director of the Chi
huahua Y. NJ. c. A, was in the party.
a story from Douglas. Ariz, that United
States soldiers had seized 100000 car
tridges consigned to Gen. Gales. None
of the American military officials here
would confirm or discuss the story.
Another development today was the
Tightening of the censorship over the
sending of American kilograms into
Mexico by the Carranza authorities. All
messages were closely scrutinizd by the
officials on the Mexican side of the bor-
der and none that were couched in code
or the meaning of which was dubious
was permitted to pass. Hitherto rail-
road officials have been allowed to send
code kilograms. but this privilege has
been withdrawn.
Sarranza Soldiers Curse Americans.
American refugees who have arrived
at Douglas. Ariz., from Nacozari de-
clared that they had run a gantlet of
curses hurled at their train by Car
ranza soldiers, who lined the tracks at
Cabullona.
Refugees from Cananea reported that
Gen. z. Elias Gales, military governor
of Sonora, has placed that town under
martial law. A decree had been posted
in all public places, they said, stating
that no person would be allowed to
remain who is not engaged in business
there, or can give a satisfactory rea-
son for his presence in town.
Police patrols armed with rifles and
revolvers parade the streets night and
day, and have orders to disperse
crowds and prohibit lettering. The
refugees asserted that several men have
been shot on the streets for not NOV
ing as quickly as the patrols thought
desirable. They also maintained that
the majority of the people in the town
are sympathetic with Villa. The mines
and smelters, they said, were still
working their full forces.

Ell PASO, Tex, March 15.-The bor-
der awoke today with the conviction
that before another twenty-four hours
had passed United States troops would
be sent across the Mexican frontier at
Columbus to bring Pancho Villa to ac-
count for his crimes.
According to dispatches from San
Diego, a proclamation over Gen. Car
ranza's signature has been published at
Guaymas, stating that Carranza had in
formed the American government he
would not permit armed forces to invade
Mexican territory. The proclamation
urged the greatest moderation and that
perfect security be given Americans.
The one question that is on every
ones lips was as to what part would be
played in the approaching chase by the
large bodies OF troops under Carranza
commanders who are gathered in the
region through which the expeditionary
force Is expected to make its way.
Carranzistas Friendly to Villa.
For the last few days reports have
accumulated of serious disaffection
among the Carranza soldiers in the
neighborhood Of the Arizona border who
uuucT tHe VI IcH AdheS.
Many of these reports have been ex-
tremely circumstantial, and they culmi-
mated early today in story from
Presidio, Tex. that the CarranZa garri-
son at Ojinaga had revolted and mur-
dered its commander, Gen. Rojas.
The stories brought from the interior
of Mexico by American refugees served
to confirm the impression that at least
. section of the Carranza soldiery were
far from unfriendly to Villa and were
decidedly hostile to the American ex-
pedition. Refugees told of being in
suited and cursed by soldiers they en-
countered in their flight, but no act of
physical violence had been reported.
At the same time other Americans,
especially those who came from Sonora
and the western part of Mexico. de-
clared that conditions in those parts
were quiet and that they had expert
enced no display of animosity toward
either the United States or themselves
personally.
Only Few Americans in Chihuahua.
Fifty Americans from Chihuahua City
who arrived here last night by train
reported that there were forty or fifty
Americans left in the city. Most of the
others probably would follow soon. it
was said. An escort of fifty-six Car
rama soldiers rode on the train.

movie censors, backed by Attorney
General Edward G.. Turner today were
in Federal court here to defend their
stand in barring the exhibition in
Ohio of the film play, '"The Birth OF

Producers of the picture, which
depicts the South in Civil War and
reconstruction days, have sued for a
restraining order preventing censors
from interfering with the exhibition
of the film in Ohio movie theaters.
The picture has been shown in
every state in the union except Ohio.
Attorney General Turner reviewed
the film with the censors and fol-
lowed their second rejection of the

of the picture is as follows:
Beatrice Barlow has recently been
appointed to a place on the health
commission of her city. She is ad-
vised by Joel Stevens, an old political
war-horse drawing salary as
"health Inspector" to loaf on the
job. But Beatrice takes her duties
seriously. She turns in report on
a tenement house where the law has
continuously been violated, recon-
mending drastic and expensive chan
ges. Stevens gets a glimpse of the
report and urges the girl to tear it
up. 1.-THE owner of the block is
Mayor Glynn," he warns her. "Do
you want to get f1red?" Beatrice
submits her statement and is prompt
ly discharged.
The young doctor finds herself
powerless to make the facts public
as the mayor owns the only news

Caring For tho Colt In Winter.

VarIn9 for the Colt IN winter.
The important question of how to
care for the growing colt through the
winter confronts the farmer. Many
colts will be taken from pasture with
a goodly store of fat only to be turned
out to straw pile for feed and shell
ter and will come out next spring light
er in weight than they are now. On
the other hand, not few colts may
be ruined by heavy feeding in stalls,
where they cannot take exercise.
The ideal shelter for colts is a tight
~ built shed, open to the south, where
the animals may go in and out at their
own pleasure and where they may
have the run of good big field for ex-
ercise Idle farm horses can best be
sheltered in the same way. A dry bed
and protection from cold winds and
rain are all that is needed.
Two parts of oats preferably crush
ed) and one part of bran make very
suitable feed for growing colts. In
cold weather little corn may be add
ed, not to exceed % per cent of the
half of the roughage ration no oilmeal
will be needed, but if the roughage
consists of wild hay or corn stover
about per cent of oilmeal should be
added to the grain ration. Where oats
are high in price and barley is plenti-
full ration of crushed barley. 60 per
cent; bran, 80 per cent. and oilmeal, 10
per cent, should give good results.

move incompetent mayors, she sends
her statement to him. A few days
later DR.. Barlow finds a case of small
spox in the same tenement. The head
of the health department, fearing
the wrath of the mayor, refuses to
quarantine the building. Beatrice
attempts to put up an official quaran-
tine sign. The health officer inter-
teres, and a strange young man ap-
pears and thrashes the officer.
A few days later the tenement be-
longing to Glynn catches fire. Beat
rice, attending a sick woman on the
third floor, is rescued with difficulty
by the enterprising stranger. While
he dashes back into the flaming
building to save child, hirelings of
Glynn's seize the fainting girl, bum
die her into limousine and drive
off. The only witness to the abduc-
ton is a small boy. All that night
and the next day the strange young
man hunts for the girl. At last,
stumbling upon little Patsy Burns,
his worst fears are confirmed. By
clever detective work he locates Beat
rlce's prison, liberates the girl and
handouts her captors,
The following day, G1ynn, with
Beatrice and her ally both appearing
against him, is convicted in the pres
ence of the governor. The stranger,
the head of the state admits, is his
own private secretary. The grating
mayor and his accomplices go to the
penitentiary.

WINTER CARE OF CELLARS.
Uniform Temperature and Good Ven.
tiIation Are Positive Requirements.

Uniform Temperature and Good Ven-
tiIation Are Positive Requirements.
A uniform temperature of As de-
grees, perfect ventilation and good or
der are the three essentials for sue
cess with the cellar in winter. Uni
form temperature and ventilation. of
course, are positive requirements. for
without either the real value of the
cellar will be lost. Cellars are used
primarily for storage purposes, and
when the temperature rises above so
degrees the root crops and fruit will
shrivel and even start growth. Since
potatoes are stored in the cellar and
losses Of potatoes are due to moisture
and high temperature, it is necessary
to maintain a temperature of 40 de-
grees or under.
The storage part of the cellar should
be separated from the section contain
ing the heating plant, so that little if
any heat will pass through. This re-
quires strong, substantial wall, and
the tighter it is built the better will be
the insulation. Then there should be
q ventilator which will admit air from
the outside and which can be opened
or closed at the will of the owner. As
every cellar should have a good stand
ard thermometer, the temperature can
be watched and regulated. If the
opening is on an unprotected place it
can be covered with several thick
nesses of burlap. This will prevent
direct drafts Of wind blowing into the
cellar and prevent 1uctuating tempera-
lures. The farm home derives much
good from first rate cellar.

The Tigers piled up 330 miscues, but at the same time hold the seasons record for the great est number of consecutive games played withou: misplay. They played a string of seven errorless games, something which no other team in the circuit achieved.
 Second to Vernon for total errors during the season came Oakland and Portland, each with BPS; San Fran cisco was next with 327; Los Angeles 312, and Salt Lake 300
 San Francisco showed the largest number of errOrless games played during the season, going the route 58 times without a pebble. The tail ends Oakland club was next in line with 52 errorless games, being one of those baseball paradoxes that is fur ther emphasized by the fact that the champion Los Angeles club played fewer errorless games than any other club. Salt Lake played 51 errorless games, Vernon 47, Portland 45 and Los Angeles A.
 Four assists to a game was the smallest club total made in any one game of the 1916 coast league sea son. Los Angeles and Vernon each had games to their credit in which they made only a total of four as- sists, but in each case their opponents were only at bat for eight innings Five assists was the lowest total for the season, where a club played nine innings of a fielding game.
 Twenty-four assists was the biggest single team total for nine inning game, San Francisco and Oakland sharing the honors. Twenty-three as- sists in eight innings of fielding were credited to Vernon in one game.

It has become the custom to imagine that every ceremony connected with the Christmas holidays in old England was observed on the holiday itself Nothing could be further from the real facts. It should be remembered that in England of old, and to some extent even in industrial England of today, Christmas does not refer only to the holiday itself, but to the twelve days and nights immediately following the feast of the Nativity. It would easily be discovered by anybody who took the trouble to give a few moments thought to the subject that it would be nigh physically impossible to fol. low all the ceremonials and customs connected with the Christmas season on one day.
