ed by Federal Officers For
Evidence

El Paso, Tex. March 15.-Sergeant
Alexander Fruchter, of Company X,
Seventeenth United States Cavalry. is
being detained at the Fort Bliss guard
house on n charge of desertion, it was
stated by, military officers last night.
Fruchter is of German birth and an
investigation following his arrest Is
said to have resulted in the finding CT
q number of German letters and other
papers in his effects.
One army officer said some of the
letters appeared to be only friendly
they were being closely examined by
experts.
A German civilian friend of
Fruchter has been under surveillance
here by government agents for more
than a week, and an effort is being
made to connect him with the alleged
German plot on the border and in
Mexico.
Additional confirmation was re-
ceived by army officers of the offer
made to the CarranZa officials in
Chihuahua City to raise a regiment of
Serman reservists and other German
residents in event of war on Germany,
and Mexico became involved.
This offer, according to later infor-
nation which was brought from
Chihuahua City to-day. was made less
than ten days ago to high' Carranza
officials. The offer was made after a
banquet at which Americans were
said to have been abused and toasts
drunk to the future friendship of
Mexico and Germany.
Four German officers are known to
be with Francisco Villa at the present
time, according to confidential infor-
nation received here. The whereabouts
of Villa himself remains a mystery al

How Boil Weevil
Came To Tennessee

While Tennessee has not been
considered in the boil weevil terri
tory, some Tennessee counties are
on the danger line because OF the
fact that the weevil has shown
that it can adapt it self to colder
climates than that Of Mexico from
which it came, according to G. M.
Bentley, state entomologist, writing
| in the y. T. Farmer, a student
publication OF the University OF
Tennessee. Prof. Bentley explains
how the weevil has developed and
spread.
I'm the past twenty-four years"
he continues, the Mexican cotton
boil weevil has developed from a
rather obscure species Of one Of
supreme importance with respect
to the production of the worlds
supply of cotton. From sOuthen
Texas the weeviI has advanced
/ northward and eastward, at and
average rate of fifty miles year,
until it has crossed over into
Tennessee, and at present occurs
in some eight or ten counties IN
the southwestern part Of the state
THE advance of the weevll IN
1918 covered more new area than
in any season since it entered
Texas in 1892. The 1915 migration
of the weevil covered some 14O
miles in all 1aStwardly and nOlvn
eastwardly direction. An expla
nation for this unusual spread Is
found in the occurrence of strong
wind coincident to the annual flight
of the boil weevil during the latter
! part of August, following the sew
ere storm of Galveston, Tex. Thi
heavy west and southwest wind i
supposed to have carried the fyini
weevils long distances heyon'
where they would have normal,

in limited numbers in Shelby

Postoffice Does Big
Christmas Business

The Enterprise had planned to
give a resume Of the Dresden post
office business for the holidays IN
its last issue, but a things
lack Of help forced us to omit
this item.
Postmaster Brasfeld informs
the Enterprise that the amount OF
matter handled during the 1916
holidays was far and away ahead
Of any previous year. For IN
stance, during the holidays from
twelve to eighteen mail sacks OF
mail left this office daily. On
some of the days a number OF
sacks of mail was received con-
tanning bundles and boxes and
packages and letters. All this
was handled and distributed with
out a complaint. There remains
one undelivered package here now
addressed to some person who
does not and never did live here
1t took long hours, often Until
near midnight, hard work an(
good management to handle al
this mail, but that is what Mr.
Brasfeld and his assistants, Jerr!
Jeter, Miss Nell and Tom Jete
Brasfeld did, without a complaint
so far as we know. This is
pretty good record for the Dresden
postofice, its postmaster and eacI
of his assistants and the Enterprls

some even cursed him. He tells also OF an English o1cer
who stated the Germans ran both ways when the British
attacked though they were picked men. Some ran
awav from and others toward them holding up their
hands They were hungry, tired and nerve-shattered
Some showed us their black bread saying 1T was all they
had to eat It hardly seems probable the latter part OF
be story about the soldiers being hungry is true for II
that were the case then the population at home would be
on the verge of starvation 1t is Of the bad features
about the war that neither side will tell the exact truth
