When is a Chihuahua dog not a .
Chihuahua dog? When it grows up.
This is Harry Carr's question and
answer all in one line as given in the j
I.os Angeles Times in a story Harry j
his written about El Paso's famous
byproduct In the "purp" line.
Carr was here covering the troop !
mobilization and the Mexican muddl;
on the border and being a canine ex
pert he had occasion 10 uti t- " .
Chihuahua dog marr.et and make a ;
few observations regarding the la-
mous little dogs which are no bigger
than a frankfurter if thev are genuine
and who grow to be hounds if they
IlogM Spnninh Style.
Harry has written a feature story
which he has dedicated to these pups
served Spanish style in which he
"kids" the militiamen who have been
buying the little dogs for souvenirs to
send home to their near "war brides.
Carr's story about the "perros C ni-
huahuenos" listens as follows:
Down on the Mexican border
there are several regiments com-
posed of boys from Ha'vard and
other blooded young men with
much coin. They have become ter-
rifically excited over Chihuahua
dogs. . .
A Chihuahua dog is the canine
explanation of a vacuum. It's so
small a good sized rat could
shove it off the sidewalk. It's so
small that the only way you can
see it is to shut one eye. It has
eare like a jackrabbit and a little
round head like a billiard ball that
has been treated with hair restor-
er. It has ridiculous little pop
eyes and it never does anything
except shiver. There is nothing
else of importance about a Chi-
huahua dog except the cost.
llotonlnn IJnr Them.
These Boston militiamen arriv-
ed on the border looking for ad-
venture and achievement Most of
them expected to find El Pso a
little adobe town with Spanish ee-
noritas singing love songs in all
the hammocks. They thought every
night after sundown the wolves
came up and bit you and the paint-
ed Indians whooped. They found s.
city of 70.0VO equipped with ad-
ding machines and cash registers.
All the senoritas they could find
were sitting in the dirt among the
fleas. Thev were quite discourag-
ed about romance until they heard
about Chihuahua dogs.
Half an hour after the first Chi-
huahua dog was discovered the
epidemic was In progress. When I
left the border there were only
two classes of military society
those possessing Chihuahua dogs
and those not possessing Chihua-
hua dogs.
The news oon spread to Jua-
rez the little Mexican town on the
other side of the llio Grande. The
peons over there are half starved.
Mexican women work for a week
doing drawn work which they sell
for enough money for a square
meal. Into this condition of des-
pair some one brought the glad
tidings that the gringo soldier had
been seized with a consuming pas-
sion for Chihuahua dogs.
Every Spick who could dig up
a lop-eared pup with a head like
a toy balloon dashed over to the
American side. You see Mexicans
standing in bunches in the street
in front of the hotels each with a
pup under his arm.
Itnre "lllrd."
As a matter of fact a real Chi-
huahua dog Is an exceedingly rare
critter. The town's whole supply-
gave out the first morning. The
other peons who couldn't find any
Chihuahua dogs hopefully grabbed
up the first pups they could find
and joined the rush.
Happily all jouthful Mexican
dogs looked alike to the tender-
foot milish. Since then the cholos
have been selling bull dog pups
coyote pups and New Toundland
pups and St. Bernard pups and
everything that could boast of four
feet ana a coupie ui ran
In their infant state they all
looked like Chihuahua dogs to the
gilded lad? from Hosting. Chihua-
hua dogs real and imitation be-
gan selling all the way from $10
to $19 each
One Kr Mr. I.anlnir.
One of the pups was purchased
by a youth well known to orttcial
circles. He sent it to Mrs. Lans-
ing the wife of the secretary of
state the Lansings being old fam-
ily friends of said militia youth.
The purchased pup was about the
size of a roll of butter. The guile
ful Mexican wno soia mm 10m mr
militia bov that the hound would
never grow larger but would go
through life able to crawl through
a knothole without touching either
side except with his ears.
As the trustful cannoneer from
Harvard hurried away to the ex-
press office the clerk of the hotel
remarked. "If that thing is a real
Chihuahua dog. it won't grow no
bigger than a tamale: but my opin-
ion is he'd better finish the job and
send his lady friend a p"ny cart
and a harness to go with him."
CARRANZA GOVERNMENT IS
AIDING MEXICAN FARMERS
Lands are being tilled extensively In
the federal district a message to Car-
ranza. consul Andres Garcia states.
Gen Lopes Lara has issued ordera to
all superintendents of haciendas in the

The Irish are no more numerous in

any other regiment on the border But
it happened that CoL Frank A- Graves
detailed an Irish painter to decorate
the regimental adjutant's "hut" Friday.
The result was a brilliant green of
the "auld sod" tone. To tone it down a
little the painter added a few stripes
of white which only served to empha-
size the greenness of the green.
Now the boys of the Eighth sing
"The Wearin' of the Grane" as they
