U. }. SOLDIERS AND
 MEXiCANS IN CLASH
According to Meagre Reports to General Funston Several Hun dred Shots Were Exchanged With Band of Mexicans.

San Antonio, Texas, Oct. 20.-A battle lasting for forty-fve minutes with no casualties reported, was fought yesterday between United States soldiers and band of uniden- tifed Mexicans near San Jose, Texas, between Presidio and Puidosa, accord ing to report tonight to Major Gen. eral Frederick Funston from Col. James Gaston, commanding the Sixth cavalry in the Big Bend.
 The Mexicans, thirty in number, fired on a detachment of twenty-three men of the Sixth Cavalry and the Texas squadron, commanded by Lieut.. Cudington of the Texans, the Ameri- cans returning the fire and several hundred shots were exchanged. No Americans were hurt, and Colonel Gaston was unable to state what loss es the Mexicans suffered, if any.
 From the meagre report submitted by Colonel Gaston. General Funston said it was not clear exactly where the fight took place, but he assumed as no mention was make of the fact, that neither detachment crossed the Rio Grande, the Mexicans and Ameri- cans firing across the river from their respective sides.
 It also was not clear, the general said, to what faction the attacking Mexicans belonged, whether they were Carranzistas, Villistas or just bandits
 Major Anderson of the Sixth cav airy was dispatched to San Jose to investigate the affair, and General Rojas, commander of the Carranza garrison at Ojinaga, also ordered an inquiry.

MISSISSIPPI WEEVlLS
 ARE HAPPENING FAST
Parasites Thriving on Second
 Growth Cotton FOliage-H. M. Cottren and C. J. Haase
 Return From MathistOn, Miss.

Millions of boil weexils are finding the pastures tender and juicy in Northern Mississippi, according to H. M. Cottreh, agricuhuraist of the Business Mems Club Chamber of Commerce.
 MT. Cottrell returned to Memphis yesterday after visits to Winona, Ma thiston and New Albany, Miss.
 More than month ago Dr. E. E. Lloyd, of the Mississippi Agricultural and Mechanical College, MT. Cottrell and other agricultural experts plead ed with Mississippians to harvest the cotton stalks and cure them for win ter forage for their stock.
 Instead of doing that, however, the bulk of the farmers placidly have al lowed the stalks to remain standing, Mir. Cottrell says, and the mild wea- ther which has prevailed has resulted in tender growth of top foliage.
 This has proved veritable wind fall for the late crop of weevils, ac- cording to government experts, who informed Mir. Cottrell that through out much of the territory he traversed on the trip from one to six fine heal thy weevils are to be found on almost every cotton square of the top growth
 The tender buds and juicy leaves are furnishing the pests with just 5he sort of nutriment needed to enable them to stand their long winter hi bernation in splendid fashion. Unless Ia winter of exceptional rigor should materialize, the insects will emerge in the spring in good condition for q busy summer.
 Apathy of the landowners which has permitted this condition to de velop in the face of all the earnest ex- hortation of agricultural experts, is disappointing to them, for they be- lieve that it means another and worse scourge of the weevil again next sum mer
 The tri-county fair at Mathiston. in which Webster, Choctaw and Oktib- beha counties participated, was very creditable, in the opinion of the Mem phians. Mir. Cottrell spoke to farm CTS during the fair on measures which they may adopt to provide feed for their stock and food for themselves, despite weevil conditions.
 Mir. Haase spoke to business men on the part they should play in the struggle to recover from the blows dealt by the cotton destroyer.

KILLING FR0STS
 SENDS COTTON UP
Advance Not Fully Sustained, But Close is Higher Than Thursday-Market Was Un- settled in Late Trading.

New York, Oct. 2O.-Reports of killing temperatures in the Western belt caused rallies in the cotton mar ket today, with January contracts selling up from 1S.27c to 18.54c, or 28 points net higher. Advances were not maintained, however, with January closing at 18.35c, under renewed real izing, while the general list closed barely steady, net & to 12 points higher
 The market opened steady, at a de- cline of 1 point on October, but gen. erally r to p points net higher on the unfavorable showing of the wea- ther map and relatively firm cables. This bulge of about 25 to 27 points from yesterdays low level seemed to meet a good deal of cotton, owing to further realizing and scattered South ern selling. Prices soon turned easier in consequence, with December selling off to 1S.32c and March to 18.36c be- fore the end of the morning, or back to practically last nights closing fig ures. There was evidently a feeling around the ring that the killing tenn peratures reported in the West hard ly justified any material reduction in previous estimates of the crop, and there was scattered local selling on reports that hedging was more active At the decline, however, there was q renewal of aggressive support from some of the recent prominent buyers, as we'll as an improved demand from Wall street sources, and there may have been covering by early sellers on the detailed weather reports, which showed freezing temperatures at all stations in Oklahoma.
 The market was unsettled in the late trading with last prices showing reactions of from Is to 19 points from the best.
 The market closed barely steady,

He arrived Aug. 10, and ,tsved four weeks. Writing of his srrerences, he says: "The physical, moral and mental benefits of the four weeks training are so marked that l would like to see all who are able to arrange it, attend one of the training camps for at least one month during he summer of 1917. The attendance at these camps does not increase eith- CT the legal or the moral obligation of those who attend. The intention is merely to equip those taking the course of training so that should the time ever arise, those who attend will be better prepared to bear arms in the defense of their country. Those who come away with an increased sense of responsibility to the nation for service and his moral obligation to fit himself to render it effectively and efficiently"

Care Of Blankets.

Here is "a satisfactory way of wash
ing the blankets before putting them
away for the summer: Slice half a
cake of washing soap into two quarts
of water; set in the stove and stir
until dissolved. When dissolved, add
cold water in a large tub. To this
sOapy water add four tablespoOnfuls of
powdered bOraX. Soak the blankets In
this overnight. Then wash them in
this water rinse them twice in cold
water, wiring and Lang on the line.
This recipe viii wash four blankets.
BE sure and use only cold water, and
they will come out as soft and beauti-
full MS new. A teaspoonful of glycerin,
added to the rinsing water, will i'm
prove them. Very heavy blankets may
sometimes be cleaned by hanging them
on the line, soaping and securing them,
and then turning the hose on them.

Flour Is Explosive.

During the last ten years, about
twenty explosions have occurred in
cereal, -four and feed mills, vita the
loss of two million dollars worth OF
property. as well as the killing or in
Turing of over 200 employees. Inves-
LEGATIONS regarding the causes of these
explosions and subsequent fires have
not proved conclusively what are the
difficulties to be avoided. In eight
cases the explosions are believed to
have originated from the sparks pro
duced in the mac hines during the
grinding process. Tiny particles OF
gravel or metallic substances coming
into contact with the plates of the
machine may produce enough sparks
to ignite the dust within the machine.
Another possible cause for cereal
dust explosions suggested is the use

CHERRY PIE AT ITS BEST
Time and Attention Given to This De
Iicious Dessert Will Be Found
Well Worth While.

It's all very well for nursery land
Billy to say "She can make a cherry
pie quick's a cat can wink her eye" but
making cherry pies isn't quick, and
even the pitting of the cherries is a
tedious chore. Pitting cherries is one
of those things best done by hand;
there never was a pie made from ma
chine-pitted cherries to compare in
flavor with the ones squeezed out with
ker own fair fingers. It's like the meat
chopper for chicken salad or jagged
hare; the machine Just spOils the taste
and makes it like anybody's instead Of
"hers."
But she has got several wrinkles not
possessed by grandma. For one thing,
she brushes the very rich and paper
thin pie crust with which she lines
the deep earthcn pie dish, with white
of egg. Then she slips it into a hot
oven, after pricking it to keep it from
clustering. Then come the cherries
piled in by TIE fistfull and the juice
well mixed with sugar, so it is almost
solid. And then atop the crust is also
brushed over the under side with white
of egg and pricked well to allow the
steam 60 escape. The oven should be
hot, but not scOrching, and when the
pie is rich brown it's dish for 8

KNEW ALL ABOUT TunNeLINe
Aneients Built Some important Works
Many Of Them Being MarveIousiy
Conceived and Executed.

While tunneling Is among the most
ancient Of enterprises, yet more prog
ress has been made in II the last CEN
fury than in the twenty centuries
which preceded II. IL is now known
that back in the semimythical days OF
the Theban kings the long tunnel into
the mountain rock, expanding at n dis
lance of 400 feet or so into some lofty
chamber, was a common work Of
princes. The rock temples OF Nubia,
too and of India show that in certain
matters, at any rate, moderns may still
learn from ancients. Then again in
Algeria, Switzerland, wherever the
Romans went, are to be found tunnels
Of all kinds and designed for ali pur-
poses, for roads and drains and water
supplies. Pliny makes mention Of one
notable achievement, the greatest Of
its kind in his day. the great tunnel
constructed for the drainage of Lake
Fucino. II was by far the longest arti-
fetal tunnel in the world at that time.
More than three and half miles long,
It was driven under Monte Salviano
and required for its construction shafts
of no less than 400 feet. Some 10000
men were employed upon II for IL
years. From the time of the Romans
until the latter end Of the eighteenth
century 10 great advance was made
in tunneling methods. Old engravings
Of mining work in the early years Of
the seventeenth century show the pick
ak or hammer and chisel as still the
chief tools employed. With the ad-
vent of the railway. however, tunnel
ing became one of the grand neces-
stiles Of construction, and progress
was more rapid.

LAUNDRY HINTS OF VALUE
Easy Method Of Getting Rid Of Fruit
stsIns-To Set coIors In WASH
able Goods.

A fruit stain on the best linen is
problem which many housewives find
difficult to solve. There is very good
remedy In paste made Of soda and
water, which when rubbed on the spot
will restore the garment to its original
color II the spot is particularly stub
born hold 1t over a steaming kettle or
allow the boiling water to run through
II and II will quite disappear.
Often careless maid will insist up
on washing white and colored clothes
together, much to the peril Of the white
garments. II the latter are injured by
their contact with color, by boiling in
soapy water to which a cupful Of vine
gar has been ADDED, they should be-
come white again.
; A simple way to set colors in wash
able goods is by soaking them previous
to washing in water, to which little
oxgall has been added. Almost tea
spoonful of oxgall to a gallon Of water
should be used.
Delicately colored socks and stock
ings are apt to fade in washing. II
they are soaked for a night In a pail
containing turpentine, then wrung out
and dried, the colors will be set and
they can afterward be washed without
fading.
To remove troublesome spots from a
garment try the yolk of an egg before
washing. This is effective and not at
all injurious to perishable colors.
Do not dry a silk garment after
washing; instead, roll It up in clean
white cloth for about half an hour and
iron II while damp.
