Tompkins formed line of dismounted
men. well spread out. across the ROAD
and on adjoining eminences, who re-
tarded the attackers until the pack

toward the American rear.
Repeatedly during the afternoon this
defense line continued to form. to hre

ground and bitches, and then fell back
to its horses for further retreat. The
Americans had no machine guns. only
their pistols and rifles, and every man
was instructed to save his cartridges
until he could NAL Ike them count. Dur

continued to fight. Late in the after

and he wished to save ammunition.
Shortly before dark the Americans
rea ched the adobe Mexican village or
Santa Cruz. where they loopholed

thick. making very effective defensive
positions The MeXicans did not press
them in this village. but continued mr.

most of his command was credited with
being former Villa soldiers. The city
of Tarral was known as a hotbed of
Villa syfnrathizers.
The direct effect of the Carranza at
tack on the Americans was to inter-
rupt the fast pursuit of Villa, which
the American columns were making
with a handful of men. While they
were unable to verify the stories that
Villa, wounded and on stretcher. was
being carried by his men southwark
past Parral. the:- know that an impor
taat unit of his forces was fleeing
southwark toward Durango and they
We're daily nearing this force of
bandits.
In order to proceed past Parral the
Americans were forced to buy provi-
sions for men and horses at that town.
1t was this necessity which led Maj.
Tompkins to open negotiations with
the Parral civil and military officials
The concentration of American com
mands was rapid after the Parral
fight that at present there is no worry
for their safety among officers here.
The day after the fight President Her
rera of Parral sent messengers to Col
Brown saying he regretted that there
had been a fight. He said that he
thought the Americans should not have
gone into Parral unannounced. Col.
Brown replied by pointing out that the
Americans mad gone in on what seemed
a most reliable invitation from Carran-
"a officers and had certainly sent the
message to announce their coming.
The president repeated that iParral
civilians outnumhered the soldiers. so
that the people could not be controlled.
SO far as the actual fighting was con-
cerned. the Americans assert they OBJ
tanned positive evidence that the Car
rama troops We're not outnumbered by
civilians and that few civilians par
ticipated.
The body of Sergt. Ridgeley was sent
into the American camp. 1t apparently
had not been molested.

WORK ON STATE HOUSE
IN ADVANCE OF SCHEDULE

Oklahoma City, Okla, June %
Progress on construction of the Okla
homa state capitol has been so rapid
that the building is now far in ad-
vance of schedule that will complete
it on time under the contract. This is
in spite of the delay of six weeks, oc-
casioned by strikes. The contractors,
James Stewart & Co. are making rapid
progress with interior finishing now,
while the stonework on the exterior
is gaining lost ground.
Under the terms of the contract the
building must be completed by next
summer. The legislature must be ac-
commodated the coming January. 1t is
hardly possible that there can be fail
ure to meet these requirements.
s. A. Douglas, a member of the cap
itol commission, is experimenting the
work. His employment is in addition
to the regular superintendent borrow
ed from the federal government, and
the supervisory work of the architects.

Victor Doq Melts Mans Heart.

A kind hearted though near sighted
gentleman of this city aroused the
police department to activity Sunday
when he reported to pound officer
Mack Pettitt that pretty little white
dog was locked up In the music store
of Miss West on west Main street and
wanted to know what could be done
about it, He stated that he had passed
the window number of times and the
dog was looking wistfully out of the
window and was evidently in need of
food and drink. Pettitt hotfooted it up
the street with the avowed intention
of forcing the door If necessary to lib
crate the dog. but when he arrived he
found the animal to be the paste board
advertising dog of the Victor company
that is the best known trade mark in
the world. listening to His Masters
Voice Mack returned to the police
station to look for the kind hearted
man who sent him off on the chase,
but he had vanished.

ing in favor of permanent roads. The
question of bonding the county for
this purpose will be taken up with
the county commissioners today and
the issue made as large as the county
can stand.
In constructing the proposed roads
it is not the purpose to build in one
direction to the exclusion of others,
but with Ardmore as the hub, per-
manent highway will extend in four
directions, east and south to the
county line, north and west for at
least ten miles or as far as the money
will construct them. The automobile
tax and the gross production tax on
oil or that part of it which is one
sixth available for roads will furnish
funds enough to build all lateral
roads into the main highways, and
keep them maintained. 1t was the
distinct sense of the meeting last
night that no discrimination would

be made but the beginning of system
attic permanent road construction that
within a very short time would eX-
tend over the entire county. 1t was
generally expressed that last nights
meeting accomplished more real good
than any road meeting ever held in
the city, the business men and large
property owners present who hereto
fore have paid little attention to roads
have realized what good roads mean
and last night they were unit in
favoring bonding to the limit to Sc
cure them. The committee will be
able to report progress at Friday
nights meeting which they propose to
make the largest ever held in this
city as they have already started a
systematic advertising campaign in
viting farmers from the country and
business men from towns to be pres
ent and express themselves.
