MORE TROOPS TO MEXICO.
Renewed Raids by Bandits Call
for Additional Soldiers.

Washington, June 12:-Coincident
with continued reports from consuls
all over Northern Mexico telling of
the rapid spread of Anti-American
feeling, the war department today
ordered 1900 additional troops to
the boarder. Tonight Administra-
ton officials made no attempt TO
disguise their uneasiness and it was
officially admitted that their is
growing alarm over what the agita-
ton may produce and the possibility
of an attack on Gen Pershing's eX-
pedition.
No case of attack on the persons
of American residents in Mexico has
been reported, although there have
been one or two attacks on vacant
consulates and other American prop
erty.
Part of the increasing apprehen-
sion here is due to the renewed raids
in the Laredo region. Several re-
ports dealing with the situation
there have been received. Officials
declined to reveal details, but SEEM
ed to believe serious purpose was
behind the bandit raid on the Cole
man ranch. Three raiders were
killed and three captured. one re-
port said, adding that they attempt
ed to burn a railroad bridge near
Laredo but failed.

No woman should consider herself

INFANT IS BURIED ALIVE
Later 1t Is Discovered by -Young Men
Who Agree to Educate
the Wait.

Atlanta, Ga.-The Decatur orphans
home, located neal here, is harboring
a pink-faced baby girl that lies on it's
pillow and stares at the ceiling as or
binary babies do, unconscious of her
peculiar distinction. For this baby was
born beside a new-made grave, was
buried by her mother under six inches
OF soft earth for II hours, and then
was rescued by young men who heard
its faint cries coming from the ceme-
terry. Rev. T. j. holland, who carried
the baby from Adairsville, where it
was found, to the orphans home, de-
clared the mother is known, but that
the men of the community have de-
cided that they will are for and edu-
cate the wait.
According to the story related by
Rev. Mr.. holland, the baby was born in
a cemetery in the night, and the moth
er, who was alone, dug up the soft
earth at the head Of a new grave and
laid the child in the hole. Then she
covered it with earth and crept away.
When the young men heard the in
fant's cries they searched all around.
But there was no child in sight.
Finally the rescuers began feeling in
the earth and dug the baby out. She
was warm and vigorous and protested
loudly against being disturbed. The
naked child was carried to a drug store
and cared for. Later Rev. Mr.. holland
and his wife took charge of the infant,
whose name, they declare, shall be
Dixie.

PAID DEARLY FOR VANITY
How Diplomats Precious Stones
Were Levied on to FIJI Out the
Lean Privy Purse.

The p%rinceling of the comic opera
country had sent to his minister in a
far rich country the decoration of the
National Order of the Golden Goat. 1t
was a cheap trinket, plentifully
adorned with imitation jewels. But
the minister, being a vain man and
prosperous, had the false stones re-
placed by real ones, and wor his
order thereafter with proper pride.
Then after some years the princeling
came a-yisiting to the far country.
Naturally the minister came to pay
his respects. Almost at once the
eyes Of the princeling fell upon the
order with the real stones, and he sat
as n fascinated, prolonging the in
terview with idle questions and pay
ing no attention to the answers. He
was resolving a p~roblem-for the
privy purse was leaner than usual
Just then. At last he saw his way
clear to make a coup.

ter, that your valuable services to
your country should receive add
tional recognition from your country's

A large coal mining company has
arranged to provide warm, substantial
meals to the men working from 200
to 400 feet underground. An electric
range has been installed in one of the
lowest chambers of the mine. In this
are prepared hot lunches which are
served in an underground restaurant
at prices barely covering the cost Of
the food, 1t has been found that this
not only adds to the comfort of the
men who had hitherto been compelled
to eat cold food, but 1t also adds to
their productive capacity. A marked
increase in the amount of coal taken
out was noted the first month after the
electric range was Installed.
