OLD BORDER TOWN HAS
 A SAVORY HISTORY

JUAREZ, Mexico, Oct. ,. This old border town has been known as 'The Port of Missing Men. for years. Americans, Englishmen, and many other nationalities have crossed the fiimsy wooden bridge from Fl Paso never to return.
 Their relatives have written to Mexican and American officials for news of them and the files of the American consulate here are filled with these pathetic appeals from aged mothers, deserted wives and destitute children.
 Many of the Missing men have been killed in the revolutions. Others have been murdered by the "rateros" or thieves who infest the border town while others have bur jed themselves in the wild moun- tain country south of the border for various reasons.

Charlie Chaplin Will Appear at the Coliseum Tomorrow Night
 in "The Immigrant

tion It is conceded that Beban is an artist without peer in his line and he has had the advantage of excellent ve- hicles, splendid support and produc- tions to which the most careful atten- tion and sumptuous investiture has been given.
 Lost in Transit is an example of this and in fact is probably the best of all his pictures. In it appears the re- markabe child actor, Bob White, and strong supporting cast, so that the star is afforded every opportunity. The love that springs up in the breast of a junkman for a little waif forms the theme of the story of Lost in Trans it' which was written by Paramount star, kathlyn Williams in the form of T story from which the scenario was made by Gardner Hunting. Donald Crisp directed the production and dis played exceptional skill in handling the situations and getting the most out of them. Despite that pathos which is frequent throughout the story, partic- ularly in those scenes when the simple hearted Italian thinks he is to lose the child forever. There is happy end- ing and a reunion that is affecting in the extreme.

AME ER|CANS GOING
ABROAD To HAVE
TWO RIFLES EACH
Enfield Is Better Than British.
Weapon and Superior to
Springfield Now Used by
United States Army.

Washington, Aug. 21.-The Ameri.
can forces sent abroad will carry an
average of at least two rifles per man
as an adequate protection against loss
and wear and tear. 1t may be neces-
sary only for a short time at the army
training camps for one company to
use the available training rifles in the
morning and another company to do its
training ano tarset practice in the
afternoon with the same weapons.
This situation will be of short dura-
ton. however, as an enormous supply
of Enfield rifles already ordered to
supplement the supply of American
Springfields will be delivered, begin
ming soon after the national army
forces are mobilized.
The Enfield rifles have been re-
chambered for American ammunition.
which In the opinion of army ord
nance experts makes them far better
guns than those used by the British
The American Enfields will be harder
hitting and of longer range than the
British and the ammunition more
stable under any weather conditions.
