New York Experiences Real
War Thrill Today.
Women Throw Kisses, Flowers
Along Fifth Avenue.

New York, June 27.-The east
caught its first war thrill since the
days of 'ss today as the national
guardsmen from several states depart
ed for the Mexican border amid wom-
ems sobs and shouts of God speed.
Wives and sweethearts embraced
khaki clad youths in final farewells at
regimental armories in New York be-
fore the order fall in carried them
marching down bunting bedecked
streets to their trains. The same
scenes were enacted in several cities
where mflitiamen were leaving to face
possible conflict in Mexico.
A great crowd was packed around
the doors of the Seventh regiment
armory when the first of the soldiers
came trampirg into the street. They
were greeted by noisy cheers HANDS
stretched out to shake farewell TO the
guardSmen nearest in line and girls
pressed forward with flowers.
The Seventh swung down Lexing-
ton avenue. Heads popped from Win
dows swung with flags.
God bless you, boys" shouted a
gray haired woman waving stream
er bunting.
Goodbye, Billy"
Goodbye, Billy-goodbye." cried a
red-eyed girl from the sidewalk.
Guests at hotels turned out to cheer
as the Seventh streamed across Fifth
avenue. Women in negligee flung
down flowers and kisses from the up
per windows.
A crowd of two thousand was gath
cred about the ferry when the Seventh
came tramping down to the blare of
the bugle and the rattle of the drum
Mostly mothers, wives, swsethearts
brothers or fathers, were grouped
about the ferry house.
There was no chance for farewells
The Seventh tramped straight ahead
The women stood in little knots, Sob
bling softly the ferry drew away fol
the Jersey side. The brothers and
fathers puffcd vigorously at cigars and
stared straight out toward the river al
a few uniforms grouped upon the real
deck of the departing ferry. There
was no cheering.
Something like the same scene was
enacted when the Seventy-first moved
from its armory to the Grand Contra
yards, through lines of husky youne
men who cheered themselves hoarst
and silent women. The Fourteenth
from Brooklyn got away from Peek
| skill without the farewells of friend:
and relatives.
About $500 New York guardsmer
will hit the trail' to the Mexican
! border today.

leo Also Consideration.

Washington, June FIT is certain
that no aggressive military operations
can be undertaken until a substantial
number of state troops is ava lila BILE to

President Wilson's first step, should he
decide to force the issue, probably
would be to lay the whole situation

believed he SO informed members of
the foreign relations committee of
both houses in his conference with
them Sunday night.
Specific authority under which the
national guard can be empIoyed be-
yond the border and also authorization
Tor calling out volunteers would be
needed. Mexican officials here have
expressed the opinion that General
Carranza would surrender the Ameri-
can prisoners, whatever reply he
might make to the demand for a for
NAL diplomatic expression of his pur-
poses.
Every days delay in what seems the
inevitable break in relations with the
Mexican government sees the army in
better position for the swift action that
may follow. This has Influenced
against pressing matters to an imme-
date issue.

Had the border forces been suffi-
cient to release the regulars for ae-

probable time limit would have been
included in Secretary Lansine's note

Advices from General Funston's head

Pershing Camp.

Ell Paso, June 27.-Eviderce that
he possibility of war with rhe United
States has healed the breach between
the Carranza and Villa factions in
Mexican politics continued to pile up
here today. More than 100 wealthy
Mexicans who prior to the surrender
of the Villista garrison of Juarez last

sorting that Villa himself had been
pledged to support the Carranza gov
ernment in the event of a break with
the United States, were circulated in

lean quarter of Ell Paso. All reports

of southern Chihuahua awaiting de-
velopment in the crisis
General Medinavietia, formerly Villa
chief of staff, and Gen. Jose Ysabel
Robes, minister of war of the Cutter
rez cabinet, were guests today of Gen.
francisco Gonzales, commandant in
Juarez. 1t was reported here that
both are to be assigned to important
commands in General Trevino's army
of the north.
Private advices today said several
hundred men of the force of 10000
Mexican troops which have been con-
centrated at BuestilIos, seventy miles
west of Chihuahua City, for the osten-
sible purpose of blocking any attempt
ed American advance down the Mexi-

thick, beautiful, glossy, silky hair,
do by all means get rid of dan

and ruin 1t IL you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try
to brush or wash 1t out. The only
sure way to get rid of dandruff
is to dissolve it. then you destroy
1t entirely. To do this. get about
four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon; apply it at night when re-
firing; use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub 1t in gently with the
finger tips.
BY morning. most II not all, of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four mora applications
will completely dissolve and en-
tirely destroy every single sign
and trace OF 1t.
You will find, too, that all Itch
ing and digging of the scalp will
stop, and your hair will look and
feel q hundred times better. You
can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. 1t is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need, no
matter how much dandruff you
have. This simple remedy never
fails adv.
