IN MN BATTLE
Ambushed in Deep Defile, Only
500 of Orozco’s Army of
2,000 Escape.
TORREON. MEXICO. May 14.—That
the defeat of General Orozco’s insur
recto army was far more severe than
first reported is the intelligence con
veyed in a dispatch from the federal
front received here today. More titan
1.500 rebels, principally from the col
umn under General Salazar, were kill
ed. wounded or captured.
In an engagement in the canon of
Carmen, where the insurgents were
taken by surprise. General Salazar's
command was virtually cut to pieces,
only about 500 of his original detach
ment of 2,000 men escaping from the
trap into which they inarched.
The Fight in the Canon,
General Salazar's trdops had started
from Sierra Mojada to flank the fed
erate under General Huerta. The in
surgents found little difficulty in tak
ing the town of Cuatro Ciencgas. and
pushed on. General Trune-y Aubert's
government army was known to be in
the vicinity, but the exact whereabouts
"as not reported. Aubert wa's nearer
than the rebels dreamed. While tra
versing the narrow defile of (.’anon Car
men. the federal column under General
Aubert suddenly appeared, supported
by several batteries of rapid-fire guns.
The rebels huddled together during the
fire, and were mowed down in heaps.
The remnant, of the rebel band fled in
panic, throwing away their arms in or
der to make better speed. Pursued by
the federal - they set out for Orozco's
main column. Their path lay over a
hurtling desert that furnished neither
food nor water fo> man or beast.
General Orozco reports that General
Salazar's column reached Vermo last
night, after having burned all the
bridges behind them Ho makes no
mention of the defeat of the detach
ment by the government forces. The
insurgent commander-in-chief denies
that he suffered a decisive defeat, and
says ho f p ll back tn order to lure
the government force* under General
Huerta into the open.
General Orozco adds that ho has a
battery of seventeen heavy guns en
route t<> join his command, and that
there are plenty of provisions and mu
nitions at his tfew base at Rellauo
"Wo have just begun to tight in ear
nest." i one sentence of a proclama
tion issued to cheer his dispirited
troops. “Food and water crippled out
forces, but we will triumph in the end.'

Sunday swimming. Councilman C. W.
Smith declared:
"Gentlemen, such a tolerance by city
officials means Sunday baseball, Sun
day motion pictures and even worse
desecrations of'the Sabbath.”
John S. Candler, mayor pro tern,
called Councilman Wardlaw to the pre
siding chair and took the floor of coun
cil to speak.
“It is against the state law as well as
the law of God," he shouted.
"The precept was handed down to uS
from Sinai, along with the laws that
we should not steal and that we should

“Let Them Wash on

“We should do all in our power to
keep the Sabbath day holy."
He tlmn introduced a substitute for
Councilman Smith's resolution, pledg

IHE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS: TI ESHAY. MAY 11. 1912
BRITONS ROW NF
BROIIGHTONWIT
Atlanta Minister in English
Pastorate Cheered When He
Jests His Eulogists.
LONDON, May 14.—Rev. Dr. Len G.
Broughton, formerly of Atlanta. Ga.,
now pastor of Christ church, West
minster Bridge road, is achieving the
unprecedented. He is an American hu
morist appreciated abroad. Convulsing
with laughter an audience of 2.000
British people is his latest feat. They
roared at his jokes and actually stood
up to cheer him at the end of his ad
dress.
When the American clergyman, tall
and gaunt, with the student's stoop of
shoulders, appeared before the great
audience his British hearers expected
one of the orthodox talks that would
naturally accompany such a mein.
But they raised their conventional
eyebrows in astonishment when Dr.
Broughton began:
"I don't want you people to imagine
that all the things these eight previous
talkers have been saying about me are
true. I've got to preach here next Sun
day and they haven't."
His Job World's Biggest.
The congregation smiled the same
moment that the clergyman cracked the
joke, and Dr. Broughton, in increasing
good humor, followed up the initial suc
cess. "I really guess.” he continued
dryly, "that I'll have to' get before a
looking glass before I can identify my
self as the fellow they've been saying
all these nice things about, if all the
talk they've made is so. then I guess
I've taken on the biggest job any man
ever had in the world. But if sorn“
one of them will give me a chance io
welcome him some time I'll strain my
conscience as much as I can in his be
half."
The British audience was now really
bubbling with reflected mirth, and at
the end of the address the entire con
gregation so far forgot itself as to
stand up and cheer musingly the Amer
ican whose wit had captivated it.
An Appendix Removed.
Dr. W B Riley, of Minneapolis, told
the big audience w hat it had to expect
of the American preacher it had "taken
In."
“This fellow." said Dr. Riley, pointing
to Dr. Lon G. Broughton, “has a great
fund of stories, and I know lie'll be
working them off on you from time to
time. Ho performed the first opera
tion for removing the human appendix
in South Carolina. He has faced and
conquered all the,-v oblems of church
work over there, and he'll do it here,
too. You keep 'open house’ under the
ministry of Hit: man. A church that
closes its doors six days « week is not
doing all it might."

The Best Treatment
for I tching Scalps, Dan
druff and Falling Hair
To allar itchine and irritation of the scalp,
prevent dry, thin and falling hair, remove
crusts, scales and dandruff, and promote'the
growth and beauty of the hair, the following
special treatment is most effective, agreeable
and economical. On retiring, comb the hair
but straight al! around, then begin at th- side
and make a. parting, gently rubbing Cuticura
ointment into the parting with a hit of soft
flannel held over the end of the finger. Anoint
additional parting* about half an inch apart
until the whole scalp has beentreated.thepur
pose being to get the Cuticura ointment on the
scalp skin rather than on the hair The
next morning, shampoo with Cuticura soap
and hot water. Shampoo* alone may be
used as often as agreeable, but once or
twice a month is generally sufficient fnr
this special treatment for women’s hair. Cuti
cura soap and ointment sold everywhere.

To Be Locked Out by

Telegraphers of the Western and At

Order of Railway Telegraphers must quit
the union or lose their jobs, according to >
rumors among the men today. They say |
that President J. W. Thomas, of the I
Nashville. Chattanooga and St. Louis rail- i
way. which leases the Western and At
lantic, has issued an order to that effect.
It is expected that the telegraphers will
stick by the union.
Conferences have been held lor two
weeks between telegraphers and road of- I
ficials. looking to a recognition of the
union and an adjustment of hours and I
wages. A strike among the operators
was threatened in case their demands
were refused Now it appears that in
stead of a strike a lock-out may result.
Officials of the road have several times
stated that they could fill the places of
