REBELS RAN SHORT
OF AMMUNITION
And Were Moved Down by
the Mexican Govern
ment Troops

Juarez, March 2l.-Colonel J. Agustin
Mora, in command of the federal garri-
son here, has received a report from Gen.
Zuazua of the battle with the Villa reb-
els, which occurred Wednesday IS miles
south of New Mexico border. Fifty-three
Villa followers were killed. Three bod
les taken to Ascension, chihuahua, were
identified by residents there as those of
Martin Lopez, Villas second in com
mand; Ramon Vega, a Villa general, and
Epiafance Holquin, bandit leader.
The battle, which occurred at a place
called del Marquee, commenced early on
Wednesday. General Zuazua's force
numbered 500 men and the rebels approx
imately the same.
According to Zuazua, the rebels ran
short of ammunition and were forced to
charge when they were moved down by
the single machine gun with which the
federals were armed. The rebels fed,
leaving their dead on the field.
The federal losses were reported to be
10 killed, including former Zapata
general. who received amnesty and was
commanding a troop of federal cavalry,
including a number of his former Zapata
followers.
Martin Lopez had been with Villa since
boyhood, and for the last two years had
been his personal lieutenant. 1t was
Lopez who first instituted the practice of
dynamiting trains and robbing the pas
sengers. Lopez with his brother, Pablo,
participated in the raid on Columbus,
n. NJ, in March, 1915. Pablo was
wounded and was later captured and
taken to Chihuahua City, where he was
executed

rs PER CENT VOLUNTEERS.
Out of the Total Number of vermonters
in the War.


Adft. Gen. Herbert T. johnson has Just
completed the first authentic report Of
Vermont's part in the great war, relative
to the number of men called from the
state under the collective service act.
This report is compiled from sworn
statements coming from each local board
in the state and is the most exact state
ment that can be secured.
From this statement, it is discovered
that 307l out of 1881 men who actually
went into the service from Vermont I'M
der the selective service act, or better
than AZ per cent volunteered and were
taken into the service before their or.
der number was reached This does not
take into account any of the large mum
Der of men who volunteered and went
into the service before the selective serv-
ice act went into effect, which brings
Vermont's volunteer army up to IS per
cent of those from the state Setually
in the service.
Another interesting fact which these
figures disclose is that exactly 4,l08
men will be affected by the proposed
law to give drafted men state pay. The
bill providing for this has passed the
House and is being held up in the Sen
ate.
The total number of registrants was
70,305. There were $500 sent to camps
and of these $40 were rejected, The
number who volunteered before their or
der number was reached in the draft
was 3,07l.

WHY?

Mrs. F. L. Higginson, director of saw
ings for New England, gives four special
reasons why savings should be put into
war savings stamps:
War savings stamps give higher in.
terest than that obtainable in any other
small form of investment.
They are an absolutely safe invest.
ment.
They aid your government as we'll as
you.
They are the most convenient way of
saving. Thrift stamps and war savings
stamps are on sale at all postofices and
banks, and at many offices, stores and
factories. A thrift stamp costs a quar-
ter. Sixteen of them, with a few cents
in addition, can be exchanged for a war
savings stamp.

things he predicts for the next
month.
lowing to strange grouping OF
six mighty planets, such as has not
been~seen in g.. q score. Of centuries
the United States, next December
will be swept by the most terrific
weather cataclysm experienced since
human history began.
ut will be caused by the hugest
sun spot on record-a sun spot that
will be visible to the naked eye.
"The sun spot that will appear
December IT., 1919, will be vast
wound in the side of the sun. There
will be hurricanes, lightning, col
osal rains.
ut will be weeks before the earth
will regain it's normal conditions
There will be also gigantic lava
eruptions, great earth quakes, to say
nothing of floods and fearful cold.
II make this startling prophecy
with no desire to be merely sensa-
tional or alarming. 1t is simply be-
cause my study of the planets has
revealed certnin results with math-
ematical certainty.
"On December II, 1919, no less
than seven planets. will pull jointly
on the sun. These will include all
the mightiest plonets, those with
the most powerful pull.
six of them-Mercury, Mars

It fires" its men that the government
nay do them special honor.
Sergt. Edgar Hayes, a red-hlooded
ratriot of the marine corps, overheard
IN aspersion upon the uniform OF MS

the speaker in the nose. The marine
corps sat. upon his case in solemn
.court-martial. and after much deliber-
alton dismissed Sergeant Hayes from

tiles. The case later was reviewed by
he president. who pardoned Hayes and
restored him to citizenship. Hayes
has now been restored to the service
and created first lieutenant, an act
If congress having empowered the pres
dent to make the appointment.
