 The lad scurried away and soon de iiyered one of MT. Jessep's best shirts to the colored man, who was as good as his word and took the lad through every tented attraction on the grounds. Later on the young American had ft forcibly impressed on him that he could have gone to the show several times for what the shirt cost.

ALBERT GRANT
VICE ADMIRAL
ALI Three in Atlantic Fleet
Coffman and Sims hold
Same Rank.

Washington, July 20. -Reorganiza-
ton of the Atlantic fleet has been Or
dered by Secretary Daniels to meet
problems resulting from expansion Of
the force to almost twice its normal
size for war service.
Details of the steps taken are with
held for military reasons, but the sec
rotary announced that the reorganiza.
ton plan involves the addition of an
other vice admiral to the feet and
that Rear Admiral Albert w. Grant,
now commanding the submarine
force, has been named for the place.
Admiral Mayo, the secretary said,
will remain in general command with
the immediate authority under him
divided between Vice Admiral Coff-
man, at present second in command,
and Vice Admiral Grant. The former
is to have direct command of divis-
ion containing most of the superdread-
noughts and designated as 'force No.
l." while Admiral Grant will com
mand the remainder of the fleet, I'M
der the designation of ''force No. 2. "
1t is understood that the reorgani-
zation will not affect the division OF
the fleet now in European waters I'M
der Vice Admiral Sims. At the navy
department it was indicated that pos.
BILE operations overseas are not con-
templated by the changes and that
there is little probability that either
Vice Admiral Coffman or Vice Admi-
raj Grant will be sent abroad in the
near future.

diers were ambushed by Mexican
bandits during border raids about two
years ago at which time several Amer
leans were killed.
The Americans were under COM
manu OF corporal hent ana the hght-
ing started when several shots were
fired from the Mexican side. The out
posts at Oio De Aqua, hearing the
Americans returning the shots, imme-
diately sent reinforcements under
Sergeant j. c. Henderson. The fight
ing continued six hours. Later
Col. B. F. Delmater reached the scene
with 100 men from camps of the sec
ond Texas infantry from nearby posts.
A strong patrol has been thrown out
along the Rio Grande in the affected
section as a precaution against a pos
sible attempt at border raiding.
