ALARM IS GIVEN

 Shortly before midnight outpost ran in breathless exclaiming: The Americans are coming int
 Scores of dark forms leaped through the firelight, bugles blew and in 10 minutes the whole bandit command had galloped out of towh When the cav alrymen came in they found two American mining men. a Mir Seyferth and another who had paid S2000 ran som to the bandits and whose lives probably had been saved by the Seventh's arrival.
 These Americans said the bandits were led by Candelero Cervantes, Jesus Del Rios, Cruz Dominguez and Manuel Baca, who was killed by Mexican the following Sunday after the fight. Among them were followers of Julio Acosta and General Beltran They were remnants of all the best known Villa commanders veterans, and at that time at least the last known band of Villa s men whose nerve had not been shaken by defeats at Columbus, Guerrero and Aguas Calientes.
 OVERLOOK REAR GUARD Saturday afternoon at 4:30 Dodd's men arriving at the southern rim of the hills forming the cup in which the town of Temochic lies, saw the rear guard at bandits riding out of town. Ahead or them they saw the main body waiting
  gun was placed to sweep this ridge while the Americans rode down into the cup in pursuit They dismounted in town advancing on foot With rifles ready, led by Troop l., and accompanied by the guides
 While still in town a trooper was hit and mortally wounded. It came from the flank from a cave in the mountain over looking Temochc. Out of the big adobe chimney the troops pulled sniper, the only one caught in the place. Beyond the town Troop l. advanced to within range of the crests above. They crossed the range in short rusnes, lying down and firing, then advancing a few yards.
 DODD UNDER FIRE Colonel Dodd, with his staff, rode through this zone of fire while bullets fell within a yard or two of every man until they reached a small knoll beyond the town. From here Dodd directed the | fight. Another machine gun was brought up close to play on the force at the crest in front of the knoll. Out along the American line trooper was lying on his stomach firing. His comrades saw a bullet strike 40 feet in front of him. then another popped 20 feet ahead of him. Tn a moment more third ball struck him in the head, killing him. A 1 lieutenant lying among his men directing the fire was wounded.
 | Meantime the Americans had gotten lthe range of the MeXicans on the crest | and checked their fire. Several freshly made graves on ths crest, found the next day testified to the Americans aim. One | Mexican leader on grey horse rode into | sight on the sky line half dozen times, | but seemed to be proof against bullets. | His grey mount was the last living ob- l feet the Americans distinguished before
 darkness ended the fighting. This horse was found wounded next day at Santo l Tomas where Manuel Baca, the Villa | leader, was killed by Leondro Alvarez, a Mexican pacifist for the price of 20 silver pesos (about $7 American money). | The Mexicans said the horse was Baca's.

MUNICIPAL SALOON
TEST CASE COMES TO CIRCUIT
COURT FROM TOWN OF
LENNON.

Sioux Falls, July 5.-Arguments
were presented before Judge j. w.
Jones, of the circuit court yesterday
in a mandamus proceeding in which
the LennoX Liquor company, a mu-
nicipal saloon corporation of the
town Of Lennox, is seeking to com
pei the commissioners of Turner
county to grant the corporation III
cense to sell intoxicating liquors at
retail, the county board having re
fused to do so after the town had
voted wet
The defense argued that the coun-
ty commissioners were justified in
not granting the license asked for on
several grounds.
First, because the commission
which had been conducting the mu-
nicipal saloon at LennoX. and which
had asked for a new license was un-
fit to conduct business under the
laws of the state of South Dakota.
Second. that the commissioners
who were asking for a license We're
not the real parties who were seek
ing to engage in the business of sell
ing liquor at retail, but that they are
asking for a license for the benefit
of the city of LennoX and the citi-
zens in general.
Third. that no corporation can be
lawfully authorized to sell liquor at
retail. In other words where an in
dividual may be legally authorized to
engage in the sale of liquor at retail
no corporation can SO engage. This
is the first time in South Dakota,
and it is believed anywhere else. that
this point has been raised
Fourth. that the Lennox Liquor
company is an unlawful combination
in restraint of traffic in the liquor
business.
Fifth, that the place conducted by
the Lennox Liquor company was a
public nuisance and had been con
Quoted contrary to the laws of the
state of South Dakota.
The entire day was taken up in
arguments of the different points
and finally a continuance was taken
until next week
