States army aviator, who was lost iii the desert of Lower California for four days as the result of an attempt to make a long-distance flight from the North Island aviation station to Calexico, Mexico, is friend of Willis Adams of Pine Bluff. Last summer Lieut.. Robertson was stationed at Fort Oglethorpe, where he was in the cav- airy service. MT. Adams was attend ing school at Chattanooga at the time. and became acquainted with the army officer, close friendship springing up between the young Pine Bluffian and the calvaryman. They enjoyed together several fox hunts at which Adams was MT. Robertson's guest.
 ''He is the best built man I ever saW,' said MT. Adams fast night, "ana I'm not surprised that he was able to endure thirst and hunger for four days, and still travel"
 The fact that both men are alive S interpreted as indicating the good physical condition in which Unde Sam insists that his fighting men keep themselves.

San iDego, Cal. Jan. 19.-Col. w, A. Glossford, commander of the North Island aviation school, late today re ceived a personal message from Lieut. w. A. Robertson, stating that both he and Lieut.-Col. Bishop, the other miss ing army aviator, are alive and well. The message was sent from Wellton, Ariz
 Since the morning of January 1O, when the two aviators began a flight from here with CaleXiolo, Mex, as their objective, they had not been >heard from. Searching parties con- 'sisting of army aviators. civilians in automobiles, and Mexican troopers. have been securing the desert of Lower California and the state of Sonora for trace of their whereabouts.
 Friends of the two officers specu- lated tonight regarding the attitude the war department would take to- ward Bishop and Robertson. Neither officer, it was officially announced last Sunday, had been given authority to make the flight, and t was said that it is considered inevitable both men will be called upon to face a Col.

CARRIES TWO GUNS
Question of International Law In.
 yOlved in Action of Raider.

Washington, Jan. 19.-Dispatches
 to the state department late today
 from Rio Janeiro said it was stated there that the steamer St, Theodore,
 captured by the German commerce raider in the South Atlantic, and armed by the Germans with two guns, and manned by German crew, was cruising as an auxiliary to the raider. Earlier in the day cablegram from Consul Seward at Pernambuco an- nounced the landing of the St. 1heo- dore's crew, including nine Ameri- cans by the Japanese steamer Hud- son Maru, another of the raiders prizes. The consul said the other ships captured by the raider were believed to have no Americans on board.
 The report of the arming of the St. Theodore. British vessel, was given out with the explanation that kthe department has no means of as- Ecertaining the facts.
 Despite the intense interest with which the raiders work is being fol- lowed, official dispatches do nut as Eyet indicate that American rights have 6been violated in any way, or that fthe cruiser has exceeded her privi-
 leges under international law. Moot fquestions of International law are
 involved, however, if the conversion
 of merchantmen into commerce
 destroyer on the high seas. The Unit led States, as we'll as Great Britain,
 has refused to recognize the legality
 pf such conversion, which is 1nain-
 tained by Germany and other con-
 tinental powers of Europe. An at
 tempt was made at the second Hague
 conference to reach agreement on
 this subject, but it failed.

German Official Renort.

Berlin, Jan. 19, via Amsterdam to London, Jan. 20.-The British steam er Yarrowdale was brought into har- Dor on December 31 as a prize by a prize crew of 16 men, says an official etatement issued tonight, having on board 469 prisoners, crews of steam ers captured in the Atlantic ocean, The prisoners on the Yarorwdale were [rom one Norwegian and seven Brit |sh vessels.
 The cargoes of the captured ves- Pels, the state adds, consisted prin- flpally of war material for the en- fente allies and foodstuffs. Three of ne vessels sunk were armed British nerchantmen.
 The bringing in of the Yarrowdale nad been kept secret for military reasons, but in view of the state hent of the British admiralty of Jan lary IF it was decided to make the Jews public.
 A dispatch from Rio Janeiro Thurs ay said a report had been received here that the Yarrowdale had ar ived at the Cape Verde islands. off ne west African coast.
 While the Berlin dispatch does not nention the port into which the Yar- owdale was taken, it seems possible nly that it was German port, as ne official statement refers to the pen aboard as having been taken as prisoners of war;" and such action neutral port would be impos- ible.

GHOSTLY SHADOW SHIPS SLIPPED
 FROM PORT IN EARLY DAWN WITH
 FIRST US. ARMY FOR F3lA4MMCcEt:

| of her stealthy role, suddenly raised her voice in a great hoarse roar. The brazen note died away-a last fare we'll to the sleeping city left behind.
 AS the Sonorous blast died away the ships were lost to view. The sound reached back to the forsaken piers, where vast army of stevedores and commiSSary troops were seeking the nearest corners and were soon in deep sleep after thirty-hour fatigue of final preparation.
 Drowsy officers, bedraggled and GOV cred with sweat from their toll, stag gered into waiting automobiles and were whirled away.
 It was the first days of June that troop trains began to discharge at this port great swarms of men in khaki. Who they were or where they were bound no one was permitted to learn. Tents Sprang up over night and small camps spread into great tent cities. Less fortunate regiments spent more than a week in cars in the railroad yards.
 The men were still on travel rations, hard bread, canned beef, salmon, jam and coffee, for little cooking could be done aboard trains.
 Relief came soon from the Red Cross which sent refreshments, but for the most part the men were uncomplain- ing, too excited with the prospect of active service to be depressed, no mat ter how great the hardship.
 But finally to each cars occupants would come the word for which they waited-one event generally welcomed by a cheer which could be heard for many miles. The order to move gen orally came at night on less than 20 minutes notice. Men were hustled aboard the cars, the roll called, the doors sealed, there as the bump Of the engine and the slow roll of wheels, a short run and the doors were opened for the men to file down the length of the dock and on board ship.
 AS the troops found themselves ac- tually quartered aboard ship their spirits rose perceptibly. The course of setting up" exercises was begun im- mediately to take the kinks out of the mems joints.
 While the ships lay at the dock the sides of the vessels swarmed with painters and mechanics, while night and day the quartemasters' army ot stevedores slung aboard ship the mu- nitions and materials of war that were part of the expedition.
 Outside the harbor naval vessels ot every description were sweeping the waters for possible mines and building cordon against submarine attack
