BORDER PARLEYS HELD BY CHIEFS
 IF EDITH ARMIES

HARRIS SPUR, Tex, May H. Parleys which are held between Mex jean and American troop comman- ders patrolling opposite banks of the Rio Grande in this sector of the Big Bend district are picturesque affairs and attended by much of the color of the southwest and Mexico.
 A recent one was held at the Santo Nino Ford, four miles below here on the river where Colonel George T. Langnorne, commanding the Big Bend military district, and Colo nel Martinez Ruiz, commander of the Ojinaga district opposite the Big Bend, met and discussed ways of stopping sniping across the border which came near causing trouble in this district recently.
 Drawn up on the American bank of the Rio Grande was a squadron of United States cavalry with a full field pack on each of the saddles and the men carrying their rifles and wearing side arms. Young cavalry officers in command of these troops were clean shaven, their boots were polished and they wore the broad brimmed, low crowned sombrero of the southwes instead of the more narrow brimmed regulation army hat. Civilion scouts regulation army hat. Civilian scouts with the characteristic garb of the plainsmen: high hat, high heeled cowboy boots, leather chaps or high leggings and leather coats elaborate ly trimmed. They point the trails, read the marks in the roads and trails for the officers and guide the troops through the passes and along the trails of the uncharted Big Bend.
 Coming out of a cloud of desert dust the Mexican command appear ed and dismounted opposite the American troops. The commander and his staff crossed the river on flat bottomed ferry boat to be receiv- ed with the deference due his rank by the American commander and his staff. On the next trip the Mexican

YOUNG SOLDIER KILLED
 WHILE HELPING BEGGAR

PARIS, May 11.-Radiating strength, vigor and health, filled with exuber- ance through the sheer joy of living, young soldier was walking in the beautiful bright spring sunshine yes terday afternoon.
 On a street corner was an old man with shaggy hair, few rags covering his emaciated body, holding out a greasy hat in an unwashed hand, the picture of uselessness. The youth dropped copper into the old beg gar's hat.
 Then, suddenly, without warning, one of those abominable German shells burst with an ear-piercing shriek and the young soldier was in- stanrly killed
 The beggar escaped untouched He is holding out his hat to passers by on the same spot today.

coloners wife crossed to the Ameri- can side, accompanied by two of her friends from the Mexican camp. This rosy checked Indian girl in her mid dy" blouse, riding skirt, and cham pagne colored high shoes, was an in terested witness to the barley which was held under a cottonwood tree.
 While this was in progress Ameri- can and Mexican officers fraternized, discussed the good points of their rifles and pistols, rode the troop horses and exchanged "reminiscences of the camp and trail in broken Span ish and English. When the barley broke up everyone shook hands with everyone else, the men from Mexico piled into the flat boat and recrossed the river shouting "adios" to the Americans as they disappeared among the foothills to their camp in can yon.

men in Italy. Too short a time in

successful generals. his own reticence
and modesty have kept him some

Yet his personal characteristics are
clearly illustrated in the battle which
has just been fought. More than
anything else it seemed to be the al
most instant reaction of the Italians.

This certain suddenness'' is Gen.

she had won in the war and much of
her own territory. it was said to have
been central Italian troops and large

Spanish origin and the italian branch
doubtless dates from one of the fire.

ago when Italy was the battlefield

was graduated as second lieutenant

a captain But there is In Italy a
still higher education for army off,

which sixty pupils are selected every
year from the entire army. Gen. Diaz
was one of these sixty and year after

serve on the general staff.
He remained with the general staff
