Grade Clean Town Papers.

DR.. Willis Valley, chief sanitary in
spector for the Mississippi state board
Of health. has announced that the
grading of the report papers from
the cities, towns and villages that en-
tered into the cleanest town contest
for 1916, is progressing, but is not yet
completed. Dr.. Valley reports that
there were forty-odd communities in
the contest this year,
Following the cleanup town contest
it is proposed to put in a system OF
inspection and grading of all restau-
rants and public eating places, wheth-
err regular bona fide cafes or lunch
counters, railroad eating houses, and
hope-skipand.jump stands. The result
Of these inspections is to be placarded
and the placards will be posted con
spicuously at each establishment, just
as soon as completed. The details for
this new departure are being worked
out, and as soon as completed, the
plan will be put in operation. The
theory is that it is just as much a
duty to the public to require that the
resorts at which they take their meals
are as much above reproach as the
hotel rooms and other tavern arrange
ments maintained for public service.

the largest surviving band Of Villa
followers in chihuahua at daylight
June 8 by 20 men of the Thirteenth
cavalry under Capt Otto W. Rethers'
in a dashlng canyon fight 90 miles
north OF Santa Clara, near here. The
Americans were unhurt
The Americans routed rs bandits,
killing three, wounding several ana
capturing all their horses and saddles,
some rifles and several thousand
rounds Of ammunition The band
was completely crippled.
A night ride brought the Americans
into the canyon at daybreak. Rid
they followed fresh horse tracks Rid
ing at a gallop, they rounded a can
yon turn within 200 yards of the ban
dts, who were encamped in grove
Of vines 1t was a complete surprise.
There was a haadlong rush among the
Villa followers, who, half clad, grasp
ed rifles and fought from behind trees.
The Americans dismounted and
within three minutes had routed the
bandits, who abandoned everything
and sougth refuge in the rugged
mountains. For four hours the Amer
leans continued the pursuit, climbing
over the mountains afoot and fighting
from the shelter Of rocks Several
Mexicans were shot, but neither their
bodies nor the wounded were recoy-

This band is said to have been the
largest surviving remnant Of the
forces Of Candalaria Ceryantes, who

RETREAT GOES UNCHECKED
Retirement Of Austrians Through Ga.
licia Is Now Almost Rout -
Russians Threaten Czernowitz.

PetrOgrad-A war office announce.
ment says that the retreat Of the Aus
tro-Hungarian and German troops
along the Galician and Volhynian
fronts is proceeding so rapidly that
only a small number Of prisoners has
been captured, in addition to those
previously reported The total is now
given as about 1890.
Reports of the occupation Of Ger
nowitz, capital Of Bukowtna, by the
Russians, are still without confirma
ton, but after the recent defeat of the
Austrian General Planners army and
the successful Russian operations in
the immediate vicinity OF Czernowitz,
official news Of the fall Of the city is
momentarily expected here
The Yale Szczyky point Of support
and one of the most important posi-
tons on the Dniester line Of fortified
tions also comes within the zone now
threatened by the extreme southern
flank of the Russian forces and, sur
rounded as it now is by the advancing
Russians, it is in an equally critical
situation.
The two other most important sec
tors of the front extending from the
Pripet river to Roumania are the re-
gions south Of Lutsk and north Of
Tarnopol. From 4he reports Of the
precipitate Austrian retreat from the
former region it is inferred here that
the Austrians were compelled to re-
lnquish their most important position
on the Ikwa front-the Torgovitsa for
ufication, at the junction of the Ikwa
and Styr rivers The occupied posi-
ton is of the greatest strategic value.

rians as at Mlynoff, on the Ikwa,
east of Torgoyitsa Finding them
selves the target for an intense artil-
lery bombardment from three sides,

To prevent widespread outbreaks Of
anthrax, known also as Charlton,
which has appeared again in three
counties of the state, DR., E. NJ. Ranck,
state veterinarian, is warning stock
men in all localities where this disease
was prevalent last year to vaccinate
their stock Immediately. Vaccine
for this purpose can be bought from
any wholesale druggist, it is said, at
a cost of 10 cents a dose A dose

While the II outbreaks OF last year
were all stamped out, says Mr.. Rack
it was not without considerable losses
of stock, and as the disease is not
durable, he urges that every possible
precaution be taken. "All carcasses
of deceased animals must be burned,
he says. ut is not safe to bury them
as earthworms have been known to
bring up spores of the disease as long
as fifteen years after burial,

Reports from over the state are to
the effect that the fish and game laws
are being ignored, and that there
is a great deal of opposition to en-
forcement, especially in interior coun-
ties were personal liberty cuts a
considerable figure in all but prohi-

1t is said that the initiative and

proposition is being circulated in Cal

more than one thousand signers.
These petitioners need 5000 names,
at least, but it is not believed they
will have any trouble getting them
That will be sufficient to order an
election all over the state-but such
elections cost money, and the late
Legislature never thought about that
when it inserted the initiative and

the consensus of opinion.
