both president Diaz and war minister
Cosio regarding the battle on the bor-
der and no great concern is evidenced
in the incident as relates to the pro-
gress of the war but it has great
interest however in view of the in-
ternational complications which may
grow out of it.
Military men regard the taltng of
Agua Prieta as a rebel mistake. By
them it Is pointed out that "Red"
.Lopez and his men have placed the in-
surrectos in a predicament. To hold
the town it will be necessary for htm
to receive the support of a large army
and it Is not believed that the chief
of the revolution deems It advisable to
tie up any considerable number of his
men.
On the other hand it is pointed out
that the government will not passively
permit the occupation of the town by
the rebels. Already one force is ap-
proaching Agua Prieta.
It is believed here the taking of Agua
Prieta will have the effect of stimu-
lating the energies of the rebels and
that it will gain for Madero hundreds
and perhaps thousands of recruits even
should he be forced to abandon the
place.
A Cannibal Feast.

In the Kew Hebrides in 1858. The na-

five or six men bad been killed. His

care water for tea came back without

One or many mysteries connected
with the elephant Is that his huge body

A Weather Stone.
There exi3ts a stone which it Is said
unfailingly foretells the changes in the
weather. The stone was found in Fin-
land many years ago by an explorer
and has since been watched by scien-
tists with great interest It presents a
white mottled appearance in sunshine
gradually turning from gray to black
as a rainstorm approaches. The stone
is composed of clay niter and rock
salt In dry weather the salt in the
stone is prominent but when the air is
filled with moisture the salt absorbs
the moisture and turns black thus
forming the barometer.

hour of fighting at Agua Prieta Thurs-

An Exciting Day.
Twice during Friday afternoon the
rebels were ordered to the trencher and
preparations made to repel an attack i
when clouds nf flni- tn tho crtntvi-rr-ai I
marked the approach of what was sup-
posed to be federal forces Intent upon
I recaptui-ing Agua Prieta. But the ap
proaching columns turned out to be
rebel reinforcements to the number
of 400 men 'under Balazaria and An-
tonio Garcia.
Hardly had the excitement died down
when scouts reported another long I
cloud of dust indicating the approach
ot a large force certain to be federals
but It was another scare.
Americans 3Iust Be Protected.
Capt. Gaujot has very emphatically
impressed upon the rebel commanders
that American lives on American ter
ritory must not again be imperiled by
fighting in A;rua Prieta. He declared
that should any further shots whether
from rebel or federal rifles enter Doug-
las United States troops would have
to take active steps to stop the fight-
ing for the protection of those on th&
American side of the line. He asked
the rebels to move up far enough to
make such a step unnecessary.
The rebels explained that they were
willing to obey this Injunction but that
if the federals attacked from the south
shots which they could not contr.ol
would certainly enter Douglas.
"If the federals use machine guns"
explained the rebels "we may be driv-
en back Into thd shelter of Agua
Prieta."
Capt. Gaujot further declared that
the rebels would be considered soldiers
and could not cross the line from Agua
Prieta into Douglas without danger of
Immediate arrest and detention as pris-
oners of war crossing into a neutral

The rebel chief permitted the Naco-
zari railroad to run an automobile car
over the road yesterday afternoon to
repair the telegraph lines. The rail-
road is not damaged.

vising him of the capture of Agua
