for praise by the president in one of his messages to congress. There, his senior officer being incapacitated, the command of battalion devolved upon him. Captain Pershing was away from civilization and almost cut off from communication with the outside world. For seven months he kept open his base of operations, supplied his own subsistence and, with his men, fought eevry day and part of the night. He started at the lower end of the lake and fought clear around its crcum- ference, exterminating hostile na- tives or making peace with their chiefs.
 General MacArthur, then in com- mand of the Philippines, recommended him for promotion to brigadier-gen- eral as the only recognition commensu- rate with his actual services. Under the law President Roosevelt could not have bestowed the rank of colonel upon Captain Pershing, so the presi- dent gave him the record promotion. 1 When the army forces were station ed on the Mexican border by President Taft, General Pershing was immedi- ately ordered from San Francisco to the front, and when, following the at tack on Columbus, N. M., by Villa President Wilson mobilized the state militia along the Rio Grande and ord. cred pursuit of Villa, General Persh- ing was assigned to the task.
 In 1905 General Pershing was mar ried to the daughter of United States Senator Frances B. Warren of Wyom ing. On August 27, 1915, Mrs. Per shing and three of their little children were burned to death in the fire at thu Presidio in San Francisco.

WAR REVENUE BILL | BEING AMENDED TO

Incomes, Excess Profits, Liquors and Tobacco
 Being Heavily Taxed.

Washington, May 18.-A stormy session of the house ways and means committee today resulted in final de- oision not to attempt to raise, through the pending war revenue bill, total of $2,245, ,000.o00, Secretary McAdoo's estimate of half of the cost of the first year of the war.
 The advisability of raising approx imatelv 00,O00,000 by bond issue for the purchase of ships was discussed, and tentative decision was reached to modify the second class mail rates and the automobile and musical in strument tax sections of the meas ure.
 Republicans declared at the outset of the meeting that they would com ,, bat any attempt to ride into the bill I the s445, 5,O0O,00O difference between the original total of the measure and the secretary's latest war cost estl- mates.
 Convinced of the inequality Of the zone rate system of second class mall matter, now contained in the bill, the committee virtually decided to sup stitute the Moon proposal. once in clud ed in the postoffice bill, which would fix flat rate of one cent a pound on reading matter and parcels nost zone rates on advertising mater; Under this plan, publishers would make returns to the posto1Ilce ue- rartment and be charged accordingly

 A list of officers that Colonel Roosevelt intended to take with him has been the cause of much comment. Because of the association in Spanish war days between General Wood and Colonel Roosevelt, it has been re- garded General Wood was Colonel Roosevelts sele ;tiOn as head of the force. Under the war department plans General Wood, by reason of his ability. has been assigned to the hard est task of any general officer.
