Eleut John Creed, on a leave nf ab sence intervening between service along the .Mexican border and -with the United States troops at Tien Twin, China, is vis iting his parents, Mr. and Mrs. James E Creed, of Rutland. He has been for a year attached to the 17th infantry at Eagle Pass, Tex., Just across the river from Pledias Negras, In the State of Coahulla. He gave an Interview to the Itutland Hoi aid, In which he talked in terestingly of the Mexican Imbroglio, lieutenant Creed was stationed at a point where very little shooting aero-.s the border had occurred, and consequently there has been little danger of interna tional complications at that particular point. There are two International bridges across the river, both guarded d.iy and night by the soldiers of both nations. He has had an opportunity, however, to mark war's ravages, because Eagln Pass Is the point at which nt least half of the Mexican refugees come Into the Cnited States, and as high as 1,000 per sons have crossed the bridges. In one day. Many of the.se are Americans, irlt ous and (lerninns, but more are natives of the country. Eagle Pass Is crowded with men who own mines or ranches across the border, but do not care lu live there. An Instance of the lack of faith In their governments on the part of the Mexicans Is shown by the fact that Colonel Car ranza, commander of the garrison at Pledrns Negra.s keeps his family under the shelter of tho Stars and Stripes al though his own duties keep him on the other side. Colonel Carranga Is a nephew of General Carranza, anil Plulrns No gras Is a Carranza town. The greater pait of the Stnte of Coahulla Is controlled by Villa's men, but the town garrisoned by Cananza across from Etigle Pass has never been serlouslv threatened. One battle did take place about tW miles from the frontier and the beaten Carr.mza men who came across the border In mad flight were ludicrously garbed, and well Illustrated the fact that Mexicans do not consider that clothes make the military man. There was ab solutely no pretense of a uniformed body. A major wore overalls, a straw hat In a dilapidated condition and a coarso cotton shirt, anil his followers were burdened even less with habili ments. The artillery Is weak among all fac tions, says Lieutenant Creed, while the cavalry, contrary to popular opinion, Is miserably mounted, the men taking any hoise thnt cifferw The armies forage, for food, and the commissary departments are parodies. There are fieiiient clashes between the Mexicans In the colony In Eagle Pass, usually culminating In a tragedy. Tho enlisted men In the American regiments nnd the men from across tho Interna tional boundnry, however, rarely have trouble. Tho enlisted men live In tents, and nt this season of the year the climate Is ideal. Eater, the intense beat scorches the vegetation nnd tries the souls of the Kildler boys.

BASKETFUL OF PETITIONS ON BIBLE BILL Montpcller, March 10. Senate B4, tho bill requiring1 tho reading of ten verses of the Hlble In the public schools enme up for discussion at tho hearing beforo State schools commit tee to-njg-ht. The bill has provoked some opposition from the Jewish citi zens. This morning, however, the House received n whole basketful of petitions favorinp the bill, About 300 towns hnd sent In these favorablo pe titions. The opponents of the hill character ized it as a dangerous attempt to in troduce worship In public schools. Tho advocates helloved that the Hlble contained moral precepts needed by the youth of the State and thought that a properly edited text or syllabus could be prepared which would remove all sectarian contro versy. The bill provides for nt least ten verses dally without comment, for the historical, literary and moral benefits to be derived from such a custom. The school directors are to edit the Hlble and to eliminate all portions that might give rise to sectarian con troversy. Any patent or guardian, may by written request have his child excused fiom such morning reading, Fnther D. J. O'Snlllvnn of St. Albnns noted the great differences of Inter pretation even In the Ten Command ments and the Sermon on the Mount. He doubted If the Hlble In the schools would tie them up to their moral moorings. So many differences of opinion will discredit the Hlble, and will make the children skeptics. He look ed upon the reading as a brand of dis cord. Secular knowledge only should be tai)ght In the public schools. Mr. Phelps of Fair Haven ,a Protes tant called the bill an Injustice nnd characterized It as n dangerous step. Ho quoted the Constitution to show that the fathers put up every barrier against sectarianism. John H. Senter appeared for the Jew ish citizens of Montpell'er and for him self. "Must we nil kneel to the mn Jnrlty of conscience," he asked. He called the bill unconstitutional In no uncertain terms and advised that the Constitution be studied in all the schools. The Hev. F. L. Abbott and the liev J. H. Reunion, both Protestant minis ters of Harre, appeared against the bill. Mr. Abbott said that the bill was unconstitutional in one respect, that no person enn be compelled to support any form of religious worship and quoted tho National Religious Liberty association to tho effect that this bill wns only an entering wedge for more intolerant legislation. Mr. Reardon stated that a similar bill was before .10 Legislatures. Ho asked Vermont to wait for the verdict of other States. He asked the members to appreciate what enforcement of the bill would mean. It might force tho building of a paiochial school in Harre he de clared. Senator Powell said that he had fear ed that It would breed sectarianism. but it passed the Senate, because no opposition appeared. If there is any opposition on such a question, he said give them the benefit of the doubt. Mr. lilack of Iturllngton regretted that the discussion hail come up, since It would probably inflame smoldorlng prejudice in the hearts of many. It may breed discoid. In the eyes of the law all creeds are equal. The advocates of the bill also put up a strong plea. W. II. Jeffrey believed that the spirit of fairness shown by tho opposition augured well for the possi bility of a syllabus on which all could ngree. Hlble reading Is not a religious service. Do you violate the constitu tion with a chaplain In your house. In your State's prison and a $15,ono chapel for your Industrial school? Ho spoke of the Vermont boys and girls, he snlil. He quoted Cardinal Gibbons, "education without religion leaves out the proper moral training." The Rev. W. A Shaw of Montpellef said, "whatever you will have appear In your national life you must put In the public schools. No system of education is adequate until we provide for moral training. The Hlble gives us the funda mental moral precepts." He thought that a syllabus could be. agreed upon. J. N. llarss of Vergennes, believing himself to be a limn without a creed, having been affiliated with Catholic and several different Protestant Churches, said that the bill contained something which was vital to the future of Amer ica. Our national morals must some how be raised. We send our money to missions 111 India and have M murders to one In India. The bill Is not an effort nt coercion. He denounced the narrowness of creed nnd einphuslzed the importance of moral education' on the receptive mind of the child. We are now forgetting to turn our children loose on the eternal verities of God. Yon can't force the Hlble In the home A census of homes with dally players would keep you nwake nights He believed thnt the Governor should bn empowered to call the heads of all the churches to agree on a syllabus. The Rev. W. H. Dukeshlre said that he would not advocate the hill If It provided for worship. Only In the Hlble he said was It possible to get universal moral trutliF. The Rev II H. Rnnkln nnd tha Rev. L. . Edwards of Newport, F. C Archibald nf Manchester and Mr. Rlnnch ard of Veishlre also favored tho bill. The committee will act upon the hill to-morrow afternoon BURLINGTON MARKETS.

A'bout a week ago the llurllngton police wore notified that a bale of high priced dress goods, the property of the American Woolen company, had been stolen from a freight car In Wl nooskl and since then have kept a strict lookout for any suspicious character. The car had been opened after the seal wns broken by the burglar nnd a bale of !u yards taken from the car This wns about nil that one man could handle ho It wns thought that nut one man wns en gaged In the deal.
