Exploration trains were being operated out of Chihuahua City to the north, he said. ViJIa Is Frightened Villa partisans here were frankly frightened today by the Washington statement and insisted that Villa would do nothing to give the American gov ernment an excuse for sending troops to Mexico a second time. They called attention to the order issued bv Villa. that his men should make no attacks on border towns and settlements along the Mexican border as evidence of his desire to avoid trouble with the United states. He said reprisals would not be exacted and Villa would keep his men away from the American border. ltie Villa representative said the Washington dispatch contained the same information the Villa junta here had obtained, adding that President Carranza's family had been sent to the United States, and reports brought from the interior by Villa agents indi cated a general feeling of unrest throughout the republic. A committee of Mexicans called upon Mayor Davis this afternoon and asked permission to send a courier to General Felipe Angeles and Francisco Villa, to request the rebel leaders not to harm Americans or their properties in-Mex-ico. The mayor informed the Mexicans tnc cny had no objection to such action.

Federals Plan Campaign JUAREZ. Mexico, June 21. For the first time in several weeks, telegraph lines to Casas Grandes, near several Mormon colonies, were working late yesterday. No reports of Villa activi ties' were received over this' wire. It was out of order again today, but whether it had been damaged by Villa followers was not known. It was expected when the repair crew working on the . railroad to Casas Grandes got back' to Juarez tonight, tl,at the line would be sufficiently re paired to permit at least a portion of the federal troops, ordered to Casas Grandes ,to guard the Mormons from Villa attacks, to begin their journey to morrow. It was expected they would continue the trip overland, should the road be found out of repair beyond where the repair crew baa been working. The expectation in official quarters also was that by next Monday, at the le.test, the whole force of troops would have departed for Casa Grandes. Re pcrts to this effect were sent to Wash It gLon today by American Consul Dow here. The saddle and other equipment, ex cept rifle and pistol, of an American cavalryman, was found south of Juarez ioday and turned over to American of ficers. It had not been identified earlv tcnight. , but military men ssid no American soldiers who went into Mex ico last Sunday night were unac counted for. They assumed, pending an investigation, that it belonged to one of the Americans killed or wounded. Red Cross Warned Red Cross nurses who went to Juarez to aid the White Cross organization there in caring for federal and Villa wounded, were recalled at the request of Mayor Romero of Juarez, who said today hir feared some of the Villa men in the hospital here might be discour teous to them. He explained his action was born of a desire to save the Red Cross nurses from embarrassment: Everyone who had no more pressing business, and who had the energy to pursue a labor of doubtful returns tin der a broiling gun, was busy here today searching lor souvenirs of the Amerl (Dit attack on the Villa forces the early 1 .irt of the weei:.

Elias Calles, governor of Sonora, sent a telegram early this week to the inhabitants of the . towns of Bavispe and Baverac, on the Bavispe river, near Pulpito pass, the principal road ti rough the Sierra Madre mountains, urging them to be on their guard to prevent entry of Villistas from Chi huahua into Sonoia. His message stated, it was learned today in .Agua Iiieta, that he had been informed the Viilistas would attempt to enter the state in some force in the near future. He gave no further details. The peo ple of the Bavispe river town organ ized a volunteer force several weeks ago and have been guarding the pass night and day. This telegram, coupled with the ccming of troops to Agua frieta ior the first time in more than three years, has caused considerable excitement among the border towns. This has been added to by apparently reliable reports reaching Agua Prieta that, while in the vicinity of Juarez, Villa n-.ade the boast that he intended first to "clean up Chihuahua," then go across the mountains into Sonora and "get jevenge upon its people for the reverses inflicted on him in 1915-1916."

' Gentlemen: In justice to Fred Richards recently charged with pass ing a $3 check, payment of which was refused by the bank, I make the fol lowing statement of facts in the case. Heretofore there had been an ar rangement with the bank by which that institution would honor checks upo the accout of Fred Richards' father whether the checks were signed by the father or by Fred Richards. Recently (he bank was notified by the father not to pay any more checks drawn by the young man, and that is the reason the $;t check was not paid. This with drawal of the right to sign checks i gainst the father's account was not Cully understood by young Richards, and so he. continued drawing small ch-cks as he had done in the past. Upon ascertaining these facts, I have moved the court for an order dismissing the case. Upon full investigation we find that young Richards stands well with his employers and bears a good reputation and will immediately re turn to his former position. I am not at all criticising the mer chant who brought the check to my of fice and I do invite all merchants who receive checks that are not paid to bring them to my attention. When ever a man knowingly issues a bad d eck my office stand3 ready to prose cute him with the utmost vigor. Yours very truly, L. M. LANEV. County Attorney. o ALA8KA USES "SUB" JUNEAU, Alaska.

You Can Listen, March or Dance to this Month's Columbia Music "Turkestan," a tenor solo sung by Billy Murray and the American Quar tette for Columbia Records this month, takes you on a flying trip to foreign parts.

Marches are after all the most char acteristic American expressions of en thusiasm. With the parades that are coming, in addition to those that have been held already, there's no such thing as too much enthusiasm. The "King Cotton March" and "High School Cadet March," those two old favorites, have been played by the Columbia Band this month, and placed on either side of a dauble record.
