nea Believed in Peril.
Cheyenne, Wyo.— One detachment
o f the Ninth cavalry, under orders for
the Mexican border, left here at 6 :30
Sunday night.
Other detachments
will leave shortly.
Junction City, Kan.— Final orders
directing the Thirteenth cavalry to
proceed to the Mexican border were
received Sunflay by Colonel Charles
Hatfield, commander o f the regiment.
The regiment, neaily 1000 men, and
a machine gun platoon, will leave
Fort Riley in a few days for El Faso.
Naco, A r il.— Mexican rebels have
cut all traffic and communication be
tween here and Cananea, Sonora,
Mexico, where about BOO Americans
reside. Shortly afterward a passen
ger train arrived here carrying 500
rifles and 150,000 rounds o f ammuni
tion, sent by the United States gov
ernment from the arsenal at Fort Sam
Houston, San Antonio, Tex., to arm
the American residents in Cananea.
The rebels cut the railway in an at
tempt to prevent the shipment of arms
from reacning the Americana at Ca-
nsprea. The passenger train for Ca
nanea was captured by rebels a few
miles south of the international line,
the engine was derailed and the pas
sengers allowed to coast back into the
United States on a passenger coach
down the grade.
Six bridges were
burned.
Care had been taken to conceal Ihe
identity o f the shipment ¡of arms, but
news that the Americans o f Cananea
had requested Washington authorities
to send them arms for self-protection,
and that the request had been granted
is believed to have become known
among the rebel chiefs operating in
this vicinity.
Not only are American lives be
lieved to be in danger as a result of
recent operations by the rebels, but
the mines must close for lack of fuel
within a few days, mining engineers
state.
Cananea is one o f the most exten
sive copper mining centers in the
world, and the Cananea Copper com
pany is the richest corporation o f its
kind in Mexico. The railway destroy
ed by rebels runs from a point on the
American border to Cananea, and is a
part of the Southern Pacific o f Mexico
system.
In Cananea are about 500 American
men and about 50 American women.
About 100 o f these are American cow
boys from surrounding ranches.
Re
cent threats of rebel leaders to attack
Cananea now are now taken seriously
here, in view o f the late develop
ments.
Initiative and Referendum and Liquor
Amendments Are Carritd.
I
Columbus, Ohio — The women of
Ohio failed in their effort to gain the
j ballot, according to early returns.
W hile the earliest figures on which
this result is based come almost from
Cleveland, Cincinnati, Columbus, To
ledo and Dayton, it was in those
places where the suffragists waged
their most determined fights snd poli
ticians said the result would not be
changed by the final returns.
The women, it is said, will not give
up their fight for the ballot, but plan
to use the initiative and referendum
to gain another vote.
The cities of the state uniformly
voted in favor o f ail amendments but
suffrage. The farming communities
voted against the amendments as a
whole, but there was little likelihood
that they could offset the big urban
majorities.
About half the state vote was cast.
The initiative and referendum has
been adopted, according to the first
950 precincts out o f 5197 in the state.
It received 63,093 votes for and 33,085
against. The liquor license had car
ried by 55,341 to 20,942.
The suffrage vote from 950 pre
cincts showed 36,063 for to 55,139
against. The country districts were
expected to change this result, how
ever.
The liquor license proposal provides
that licenses to traffic in liquor shall
be granted, subject to laws that may
be enacted by the legislature. It does
not affect the present liquor laws.
R O O SE VE LT THIRD.
Regular Republicans Maintain Lead in
Vermont Election.
Montpelier, V t.— The Roosevelt Pro
gressive ticket ran a poor third in the
state elections in Vermont, with the
T a ft Republicans winning by a vote of
almost double that o f the Progressive
candidate and the Democrats far out
numbering the Bull Moose party’s
vote.
In fact the Roosevelt ticket
obtained less than one-quarter o f the
total vote o f the state, according to
almost complete returns.
The Republican plurality, while
large, will lack some votes of being a
majority, and as a result the election
for governor is certain to be thrown
into the legislature.
Returns for governor from 217 out
o f 246 cities and towns gave: Fletch
er, Republican, 23,602; Howe, Demo
crat, 18,250; Metzger, Progressive,
14,220; Smith, Prohibition, 1425;
Suiter, Socialist, 1006.
The same places in 1910 gave:
Mead, Republican, 31,816; Watson,
Democrat, 15,803; Towle, Prohibi
tionist, 1052; Ordway, Socialist, 890.
Indications from these figures at
midnight are roughly that the present
vote w ill total: Republicans, 26,236;
Democrats, 19,838; Roosevelt Pro
gressives, 16,429.

Washington, D. C.— In diplematic
circles here it is believed that the de
lay by Great Britain in asking for ar
bitration o f the free tolls section of
the Panama Canal act is an indication
that the London foreign office event
ually will abandon that plan.
It has been said that the foreign
office was withholding formal action
pending a careful study of the act. It
is believed that when the British gov
ernment comes to understand that the
free toll provision o f the act applies AUNT JENNY’S JOHNNY CAKE

appeal for arbitration will disappear.
“ Diplomacy Likely to Fail.
London — Regret at the spirit in
which the Panama question is being
discussed on this side o f the Atlantic
is expressed by the Westminster Ga
zette, the government organ, whose
editor, J. Alfred Spencer, is consider
ed as possibly the next British ambas
sador at Washington.
The charges o f “ Yankee perfidy,”
it says in an editorial, have had the
effect that might have been expected
in the American retort that Europe is
strewn with examples o f this perfidy.
This only serves to “ generate heat
where light is wanted.”
It is likely, continues the Gazette,
that diplomacy will fail to arrive at a
settlement, in which case the govern
ment’s course clearly is to ask for ar
bitration.
In conclusion, it says,
President T a ft is so deeply committed
to the principle o f arbitration that his
refusal to submit the question cannot
be conceived.
ARM Y PO LICE FOR ALASK A.
System Like That o f Canada Being
Considered by War Department.
San Francisco— The problem o f g iv
ing Alaska a thorough military police
system may be solved in the near fu
ture, not by the stationing o f a regi
ment or more o f soldiers there, scat
tering the troops through the territor
ies by companies, but by establishing
a constabulary system modeled some
what along the lines o f the Northwest
mounted police, which has accom
plished wonderful results in Canada.
Officers at the Presidio say that
such a system o f mounted police is
being considered and may go through.
I f so, it would he unJer the jurisdic
tion of the War department, the
mounted officers being recruited from
the ranks of the army.
Major George H. McManus, o f the
inspector general’s department, who
has just returned from an inspection
tour of Alaska army posts, acknowl
edged that such a constabulary was
being contemplated.
“ Personally,”
he said, “ I believe that a system of
this kind would work out well.
Cer
tainly i f a corps as efficient as that of
the Northwest mounted police could
be developed, it would do much to pre
serve law and order in Alaska, possi
bly far more than a large number of
soldiers.”
A cupful of sweet milk, a cupful and
* half of buttermilk; a teaspoonful
each of salt and of soda— the latter
sifted three times In a cupful of
meal; one tablespoonful of melted
butter. Enough meal to enable you to
roll the dough Into a sheet half an
Inch thick. Begin with two cupfuls
and add at discretion.
Knead the dough briskly before
rolling It out. Have ready a clean,
sweet board of oak, hickory, or hem

ed and heated. Set before tho red
coals under the grate at an angle that
will not let the cake slip down, and

It Is hard enough to keep Its place, set
tho board upright. Begin then to baste
It with butter, lightly going all over
the sheet. Do this three times. The
cake should be nicely browned and
crisped.
