HORSES AND MEN SUFFER (CorrMDOndpttp nl Th. Aha..iu. TP. . Field Headquarters. American Pun tive bxpedition in Mexico, Oct. 7. negunentai narratives of the five cav airy regiments that participated in thi hunt for Villa, which have just been brought up to date and submitted to headquarters, show in detail how near tne American troopers came to accom plishing the full purpose, of their expedition. They show that just after the Parral fight, on April 12, less than a mouth after the expedition had entered Mexico, and immediately prior to th order to withdraw northward from th Parral district, the Americans had ru: V ilia, sorely wounded, to earth, and had cut off every avenue of Jiis escape to tne soutn into uurango. 1 That Withdrawal Order. When Major Frank Tompkins' MO men were attacked at Parral, Villa, disabled, Had hidden t Santa Cruz Major R. Howze, with his hard riding squadron of the Eleventh cav airy, close on the bandit's trail, had run by his quarry. Genera Persh was at Satevo. directing operation Colonel W. C. Brown, with five troops of the Tenth cavalrv: Cnlnnpl H T Allen, with two picked troops of the tieventli cavalry; Major Tompkim and Major Howze, four cavalry col umns in all, were between Villa an the haven of safatv he was seeking i the Sierra Madres. ready to beat th brush for him. Wounded, virtually alone, he apparently had little chance to evade capture or death. Orders for withdrawal came, however, after Par ral, and the highwater mark of the expedition passed. v From the beginning of the border irouoie it was to the cavalry that fell the responsibility of disoersine the Columbus raiders. That this task was accomplished is evidenced by figures showing that, of the 485 men who raided Lolumbus, 400 have been killed. wbwided or captured. Full credit is given in the narratives for" the ip operation of. other branches .of th service, notably in establishing ad - vanced oases and maintaining the lm or communication, but the fact mams that it was- the cavalry that drove Villa in headlong, panic-stricken flight into Durango, 500 miles from the American border, scattered hfs band to the four winds and set new records tor marches under terrific Handicaps. It also fought the four en gagements that had an . important peanng on tins campaign: Dodd Guerrero. March 28: Tnmnkins at Par. ral, April 12; Dodd at Tomoche, April 21, and Howze at Ojo Azules, May 4. It was the victim, too, in the tragedy oi npru a at Larnzal. Across the Line. Two of the five cavalry regiments now in Mexico, the Seventh and the Tenth, crossed the line at Culberson's ranch early in the morning of March 16. Their dash to Colonia Dublan has ueen 1010 ana retold, the Thirteenth, which already had spent three and a half years on the border, , crossed March 15 at Columbus, whrre it had been attacked March 9 by Villa.Two ovfuauiuus ji uic Mill ICll A.01UIUDUS on March 29 and were joined by the third squadron April 10 at the Mor mon Lakes, near Dublan. The first dotachment of the Eleventh entered Mexico March 17 via Columbus. The marches of the Fifth may be summarized briefly as follows: Nami- quipa, April 16; ban Gerommo, April 23; Lake Itascate, April 24; San An tonio, May 3. About the time of the Scott-ubregon conference the regi ment was given a district, with Satevo as neadquarters, whKh it was ordered v to search intensively for bandits. Each cavalry regiment was alloted a similar sector of southern Chihuahua. The beating of the brush for Villistas, however, was never fully carried out. The Fifth, on May 10, was made part of a provisional cavalry brigade to cover tne withdrawal ot the expedition northward at a- time when 4,500 Car- ranzistas were-reported to be within thirty miles of the Americans. Since Carrizal it has been encamped at El vane. ! Delav Does It. - The Seventh, after completing its dash to Colonia Dublan withjieneral Pershing's column, prdceeded post haste to San Miguel, where Villa was reported. Poor guides caused He av and the bandit escaped. It then start ed toward uuerrero. J. his town was reached by forced 1 marches twelve days out from the border, with a daily average of thirty-two and a half miles. I he longest day s march was on March 17, when fifty-eight miles were .tovcreu. ine route cnart snows tnat xne regiment ana detachments on reconnaissances covered 5,500 miles. Mention is made that during Dodd's historic ride his men many times had only parched corn to eat. Nearly 300 miles was made in a single file, the troopers leading their mounts and a number of them leaving bloody foot prints on the rocky trail, for their snocs had worn out. Officers and men lent their own, money to buy food, and forage, bdf it was not until the end of April that clothing could be secured. By that time the men were in a pitiable state. I wo fights stand to the record of the Seventh Guer rero and lomache. - The Thirteenth, which arrived at Colonia Dublan on (March 17, fur nished the two picked troops which Major Tompkins commanded in his dash after Villa and which were halt ed ?t Guerrero. , The itinerary of the remainder of the regiment embraced El Valle, Las Cruces, Namiquipa, San Oeronimo, Lake Itascate and El Ru bio. where it made its headquarters May 1 to hunt-bandits in the district to which it had been assigned, It was concentrated at San Antonio on May 10 and later went into permanent camp at Colonia Dublatty Hard Marching. Thi history of the Tenth cavalry-is a record otjiard marching and hard luck. Short Iwo troops when it was made part of the column that entered Mexico from Culberson's ranch, it was divided oil reaching Colonia Dublin. The first squadron, sent south on the Mexico Northwestern, lost a number of men bv injuries when their ram shackle train was wrecked. The third squadron participated in the vain march to San Miguel. It was joined March 24 by the first and both reached - Namiquipa March 25. With the first squadron at San Diego del Monte, the second engaged in its first clash with the enemy at Agua Caliente on April 1. Three of the fifty Villistas routed were killed. On April 3 this squadron reached San Antonio and on April 6 it was at Cusi. Ordered on April 10 toward Parral as a flanking force, it arrived at a point twenty miles from that city just in time to reinforce Major Tompkins' squadron, which had retreated Irom that city. 1 he regi ment was concentrated during the re tirement and camped at Colonia Dub lan on May 19. - Commiasary Faulty. The regiment, on May 5, lost its commander, when Colonel Brown, ill, reft for home. Brief mention only is made of the hardships the only negro cavalry in the expedition endured. It received no clothes until May 13. The horses began to suffer early in the campaign from lack of forage and on March 25 they were further disabled when their shoes began to wear out. The first supply of toffee, hard bread and bacon received since March 18 was 'furnished the men on April 20. During that time the command sub sisted almost entirely on beef killed on the range and corn ground in small hand mills. No details are given con cerning the scouting expedition in which Troop C from Ojo Fcdcrico and Troop K from Dublan were en gaged in when cut up at Carrizal. The narrative of the Eleventh, the most detailed of the five submitted, contains extracts from the war diaries of the commanding officers and fur nishes valuable sidelights on the cam paign as viewed during its critical period. Arriving at Colonia Dublan on March 22, the regiment was split, four 'picked troops under Major Howze moving south on Villa's trail, reaching Namiquipa on March 27. Four others, under Lieutenant Colonel H. T. Allen, who later become colonel of the Thirteenth, left March 30 for Namiquipa with verbal instructions in regard to the pursuit of the outlaw leader. Colonel Allen, at San Antonio on April 8, was ordered to follow l'ablo Lopez trail. Men Are Ragged. Major Howze, unable to pick up Villa's trail in the Sierra Puras, into which range he had fled, skirted the mountains, honing to capture the ban dit when he emerged. On April 10, according to his diary, his "horses were thin and footsore, his men rag ged and no food or grain was to be had in the country. . Colonel Allen, meanwhile, had been making marching history. Or dered on April 12 toward Parral, he led his men, alter sixteen consecutive days of traveling, on a march that lasted to the dayof April 14, and the night of the J4tfi and 15th. the situation that obtained during the days following the Parral fight, while the cavalry was near the Du rango line, between Villa and safety, is summarized by General Allen in his war diary as follows: I he story of Parral, theronference between the American and Mexican authorities, the search for supplies during our encampment at this little ranch constitute one of the most in teresting, characteristic and peculiarly delicate situations within my . knowl edge of the punitive expedition. The attitude of the people of Parral, the instructions from General Gutierrez not to go a step farther South, the dic tatorial manner of General Iiuis Her rera at the conference on April 21 and his reply to the request for disavowal of the unprovoked attack, ending with there is no reason tor an apology on my part,( all these go to show the character of the co-operation this ex pedition wis receiving from the au thorities and the people. The night our column passed through Zaragassa (immediately after the Parral attain the situation was very tense, and I was expecting an attack as we passed." Nothing unusual marked the retire ment northward of the lfth, save the fight at Ojo Azules. Here on lay 4 Major- Howze, after v an all-night marchi surprised 140 Villistas, killed forty-two, saved aCarranza lieutenant and four men from execution and scattered the band broadcast. Among the more noted victims were Julio Acosta, CruzDominguez and Antonio Angel. All this without a single cas ualty, i Among .recommendations regarding cavalry equipment resulting from ob servations made during the campaign are: A lighter saber, if it is decided to kept -the saber at all; a light pack out- tit ot. necessary cooking utensils tol themen; light hunting boots, hob nailed, instead of the present leather leggings; a Truit complement (dried or otherwise), to make room for which the hard bread supply could be reduced to the field ration; horses about fifteen hands high, short coupled and big-barreled. The Busy Bees Their Own Page W 1TH Hallowe'en pranks just over and visions of pumpkin pie, cranberry sauce and turkey hovering (h the distance, now is a good time for Busy Bees to devote in learning how children of other lands live. Don't you think it would be interesting to know something about the manners and customs of the little Esquimo hoy or girl, or the Indian, Dutch, Swiss, Norse, Ital ian, French, Japanese in fact any of the little boys and girls who inhabit other parts of the globe? While our little boys and girls have their days made up by study and play to a great extent, think of the grave responsibilities that weigh even upon children in the war-stricken countries, for instance. There is no doubt but what the war is weighing heavily upon their little hearts and minds. sVhich is all the more reason for American boys and girls to be thankful we are not in their boots..' Stories told in your own words of children in other lands would be most interesting for the other Busy Bees to read, I am sure. Lizzie Rath of the Blue Side won the prize book this week. Lucile Tuma of the Red Side and Barbara Paul of the Blue Side, won honorable mention. Little Stories by Little Folk (Prize Slory.) Sees Aviator's Fall. By Lizzie L. Rath. Aged 14 Years, Route 3, Box 11, St. Francis, Kan. Blue. Side. There was a base ball tournament at St. Francis not long ago and we all went to see Captain McMillen's flight. Everybody rushed to the ball grounds, where Captain McMillen was to make his first flight. He was to go upl after the ball game, about noon, nut something -was wrong and he didn't go up until after the game in the after noon. He made two flights Friday and one Saturday, which was his last flight. Ihe captain was interviewed prior to his start.He stated the conditions not the mos"t favorable for the flight, but expressed determination to make the attempt. Upon leaving the ground the machine seemed to be swaying from side to side more than it should, but took the air better than either of Captain McMillen's two previous flights the day before. After reaching an altitude of perhaps 1,200 feet the plane righted itself and seemed to be traveling smoothly. Veering a little to the southeast on turning north with the wind, the captain evidently de veloped engine trouble. His exhaust could be heard and was spitting until it finally stopped, after which the ma chine dropped rapidly until it struck a vacuum. It came down so fast, in all firobability, it caused the captain -to ose consciousness and the machine was without a guiding hand. The ma chine came down head first. The cap tain was removed from under the RI I.K8 rOR YOI'NO WRITERS. 1. Writ plainly on one aid f th papr only and number th pam, 2. I'm pen and Ink, not pencil. I.

(Honorable Mention.) ( Skunk Farm. ByxBarbara L. Paul, Aged 12 Years, Cedar Bluffs, Neb., Blue Side. This will be the first time I have written to the Busy Bee's Owii Page. I like to read the little stories or tales in The Omaha Sunday Bee. - I am 12 years old and in the sixth grade at school. My story will be about our skuirk farm.- Year before last my father received a letter from a man who wanted to sell some scentless skunks. And so we decided to buy some and have a skunk farm. Ve have twenty-three scentless ones.' Some, are broad stripe, some are narrow stripe, some pin stripe, some black with a white round spot on their heads and the best with a V shape on their heads. They eat anything a cat will and they like raw eggs very well. Thjs will be the end of my skunk story for this, time. I hope MrWaste basket is on an errand and will not receive my letter or story. I would like to join the Blue side1, for it is one of my favorite colors. t , (Honorable Mention.) - Life as a Crow. By Lucile Tuma, Aged HxYears, Elba, Neb., Box 74. Red Side. All I remember was that I was beside my mother in the nest up high in a tree. When I was a few weeks old a bad boy climbed the tree; first he took my brother and dropped him down, for there were some big boys down on the ground trying to catch us. S But they couldn't catch my brother for he fell on the other ; matter. I told them. When I stepped How Pansy Came. By Hazel Wickeuberg, Aged 12 Years, , Omaha.

When he came to Odin's chair he sat down and looked over the earth, but found nothing that inter ested mm, until lie happened to look into the garden of a rich man. He saw a beautiful maiden -looking up toward the sky watching the clouds sail by. Cupid instantly fell in love with her. She wore a lovely velvet robe of rich purple trimmed in red velvet. Her coat was of yellow velvet piped in little, braids of dotted velvet. Cupid crept down from the chair and went to his castle. When he ar rived there he ordered his servant to get a few of his belongings ready, as he was going down to the earth. When Cupid was ready he got in his chariot and drove down to the earth. He went to the rich man's garden and saw the maiden still looking up at the sky. He went up to her and said, "Beautiful maiden. I have looked nnnn you from the heaven and have loved you. Won't you come back with me and be my bride?" But the maiden shrank away and whispered, "Marry you? Oh, no; I Could never marry ,m " T'l,:.

And so to this day you can see the beautiful face of the maiden and see her robes, the velvet petals in the pansy. Steps On Bull Snake. By Stella Rogert, Aged 11 Years, Herman, Neb. Blue Side. - Once upon a time some of my folks went fishing. We went after dinner and we were down there a long time, but we did not catch any fish. ' So we were going to a different place. I was walking along the edge of the creek and all at once I stepped on a large bull snake. I was also barefooted, and, of course, I was very scared. I screamed very loud. The folks asked me what was the ! i I ' 3 FIXJMS BRUJNfe KVTS ev fust Stlvc on theMull snake you could "hear it splash in the river. I was careful where I stepped after that. We then went home and we didn't eat any fish. This is a true story. I hope the Busy Bees won't have any such frights.

"Surely I will," said Rollo, and he ran off to make a house. One day as Rollo was playing he saw the door of the pigeon house was opened, but none had gone out.

Wonderful Discovery Which Promises to Mark a New Era in Medical Science. NEW YORK. N. Y. Since the reHTark able discovery of organic iron. Nuxated Iron of "Per Nuxate," as the French call ft, has taken the country by storm, it is conserva tive estimated that over five million per sons daily are taking it in this country alone. Most astonishing results are reported from use by both physicians and laymen. So much so that well-known doctors predict that we shall soon have a new age of far more beautiful, rosy-cheeked women and vigor ous men. , s Dr. King a New York physician and author, when interviewed on the subject, said : 'There ean be no vigorous iron men without iron. Pallor means anemia. Anemia means iron deficiency. The skin of anemic men and women is pale. The flesh flabby. The muscles lack, tone; the brain fags and the memory fails and often they become weak, rervous, irritable, despondent and melan choly. When the iron goes from the blood of women, the roses go from their check!. . "In the most common foods of America, the starches, sugars, table syrups, candies, polished rice, white tread, seda crackers, biscuits, macaroni, spaghetti, tapioca, sago, 'farina, degermlnated corn meal, no longer is iron to be found. Refining proc esses have removed the iron of Mother Earth from these impoverished foods, and silly methods of home cookery, by throwing down the waste pipe the water in which our vege tables are cooked, are responsible for an other grave iron loss. s 'Therefore. If you wish to o reserve your youthful vim and vigor to a ripe old age, you must supply the Iron deficiency in your food by using some form of organic iron, just as yon would use salt when your food has not enough salt." Dr. Bauer, who has studied abroad in rreat European medical Institutions, said: "As I have said a hundred tm nu organic iron it the greatest of all strength minders, it people would only throw away patent medicines and nauseous concoctions no tana simple nuxated iron, I am con vinced that the lives of thousands of tier. sons might be saved who now (H every year from pneumonia, grippe, consumption, kid ney, liver, heart trouble, etc. The real and true cause which started their disease was notnmg more nor Jess than a weakened con dition brought on by a lack of iron in the blood. "Not long agt a man came to me who was nearly half a century old and asked me to give him a preliminary examination for life insurance, i was astonished to find him with a blood ores sure of a hov rf twentv and as full of vigor, vim and vitality as a young man; n fact, a young man he really was, notwithstanding his age. The secret, he said, was taking iron Nuxated Iron had filled him with renewed life. At thirty he was in bad health, at forty-six be was care worn and nearly all in. Now at fifty ai miracle or vitality and his face beaming with the buoyancy of youth. Iron is absolutely necessary to enable your blood to change food Into living tissue. Without it, no mat ter how much or what you eat, your food merely passes through you without doing you any good."Y,ou don't get the strength out of it, and as a consequence you become weak, pale and sickly looking, just like a plant trying to grow in a soil deficient in iron. If you are not strong or well, you owe t to yourself to make the following test: aee now Jong you can work or how far you can walk without becoming tired. .Next take two five-grain tablets of ordinary nuxated iron three times per day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see how much you hav gained, I have seen dozens of nervous, run-down neoole who we're ailing all the while double their strength ant. endurance and entirely rid themselves of all symptoms of dyspepsia, liver and other troubles in from ten to fourteen days' time simply by taking Iron in the proper form. And this, after they had in some casps been doctoring for monjsn without obtaining any benefit. But 46n't take the old forms of I Advrtlsmtnl reduced iron, Iron acetate, or tincture of iron simply to save a few cents. The iron de manded by Mother Nature for the red color ing matter in the blood of her children is aiaal not that kind of iron. You must take Iron in a form that can be easily absorbed and assimilated to do you any good, other wise it may prove worse than useless. Many an athlete and prize fighter has won the day simply because he knew the secret of great strength and endurance and filled his blood with iron before he went Into the affray while many another has gone down in in glorious defeat simply for the lack of Iron-" Dr. Schuyler C. Jaaues, another New York physician, said. "I have never before given out any medical information or advice for publication, as I ordinarily do not believe in it. But in the case of Nuxated Iron I feel I would be remiss in my duty not to men tion it. I have taken it mvs.lf and v.n it to my patients with most surprising and tmiaciary results.

' ''Second Under the present high license system, where public sentiment will sustain prohibition, you can have pro hibition. This is true of every county in Nebraska, under exist ing law. Where the sentiment of the people in any city or county does not sustain prohibition, this attempt to enforce it will be a dismal failure.
