"I don't know whether I'm going to accomplish anything by working In these restaurants, but if I can ac complish what I'm after I’ll stir up a lot of trouble for the men who own these restaurant buildings.

Border, Believed on Way to Recapture Juarez. EL PASO, TEXAS, Dec. 6.—“The Federals are coming!’' This cry was raised in Juarez to day when word was received that General Villa was returning to the Mexican city at the head of troops with which he set out to occupy Chi huahua. Activity at the Constitu tionalist headquarters gave rise to the belief that a battle was expected and that the Federal troops who are reported marching from Chihuahua to Ojinaga with a great band of refu gees had deflected their course and were coming to recapture Juarez. The rumors were received with credence on this sida of the Rio Grande, as was evidenced by ac tion taken by the United States mili tary authorities. The headquarters of the Second Cavalry Brigade was moved here from Fort Bliss to-day, so that Gen eral Scott, the brigade commander, and Major Robert E. Michie, brigade adjutant, can keep in closer touch with affairs on the border. Troops were shifted, and now prac tically all the soldiers in this vicinity are camped within the city limits of El Paso, within easy distance of the international bridge spavining the Rio Grande in Juarez. A battalion of the Twelfth Cavalry, which has been stationed at the Ship Rock Indian agency to quell any out break among the Navajo Indians, has been ordered to El Paso, and probably will arrive to-morrow. u / ' %-* ■ sr # m />.

Further developments are expected by Monday, Police Force Probe Fails to Find 'Leak' Experts Praise Work of Atlanta Institutions as Nearly Ideal. Most everybody likes to watch little children at work or play. And maybe that's the reason why the fifteen little boys and girls from the Home for the Friendless are al ways the center of a curious throng at the Child Welfare and Public Health Exhibit. They are of most importance in the Dependent Child Section of the show, which has a room to the left as you enter the building. And every one of the fifteen young sters—what time they are not chat tering and giggling with the exuber ance of childhood—are working, al though it. doesn’t appear to be work. The average child, if it likes the task given it, can make almost any work seem like play—and the people who train the children at the Home for the Friendless have the knack of teaching them to love their work— and therefore it is play. Panels Show Achievements. Probably no section of the show has attracted more attention than the Dependent Child Section. While, of course, the children are the center of attraction, there are other things in the exhibit which make it worth while. There are panels illustrating the wo/k of five of the well-known At lanta orphan asylums, two of them negro institutions. Photographs of children from the Home for the Friendless are shown on one panel, with statements of the work being done. On another panel the work of the Decatur Orphan Home, which makes a specialty of the cottage plan of caring for its children, is shown, and on still another the Georgia Children's Home traces the progress of a child from lowly surroundings through the various stages of admission to the home and adoption into a childless home. And there are also panels showing what the Carrie Steele Home and the Leonard Street Home are doing for the negro children cast out into the world. Atlanta Institutions Praised. And on the other side of the room are panels showing conditions in an ideal orphan home, and a panel show ing scenes in a girls’ training school. Then there is a “How to Help” panel, vividly telling the best ways to make up to the child for the loss of Its home. And It is much to the credit of the Atlanta institutions to say that the experts declare they compare very favorably with the ideal institu tions told of on some of the panels. There is no orphan home that is per fect. the experts say, but the Atlanta institutions appear to be doing a grea t deal of the work that Is recommended for the ideal home.

Turner took Aldine Chambers’ bitter attack on him Saturday in a spirit of levity. He did not seem to be worried In the least because he had been called a liar, blackguard and grafter, but smilingly found solace in a quotation from Wil liam Jennings Bryan. “I seem to have drawn Chambers’ fire at last,” ne said. “I am very well satisfied with the situation. “William Jennings Bryan says that every iwin in public life must stand a certain amount of criticism. I am willing to stand my •share. “Mr. Chambers is unwilling, or un able to stand his, as he retired from public life at the last election.” Since Electrician Turner’s personal attack on him, Mr. Chambers, ex- Councllman and attorney for the Cot ton States Electric Company, has dropped all mere intimations of wrongdoing on the part of the City Electrican and boldly accused him of being a "blackguard, deliberate liar, slanderer and a grafter.” “I charge that he got $180 from the association* of electrical contractors In November, 1912,” said Mr. Cham bers. “That was after his election, and could not have been a campaign contribution. “What did he get It for? “He admits having received a gold watch from the contractors. “What did he get that for? ”A8 to Mr. Turner’s charge that I received campaign contributions from the Georgia Railway and Power Company, I answered that during an investigation by the General Council last year, which tody denounced Tur ner as a deliberate*liar and slanderer. “As to his intimation that a repre sentative of the Barber Asphalt Com pany paid to me and two officials of Atlanta a sum of money in New York in the summer of 1912, he knows that It is utterly false, and that he is a common blackguard and liar as well as a grafter.” Denver Paralyzed by 4 Feet of Snow; Many Missing; Food Scarce DENVER, Dec. 6.—Paralyzed com pletely by the snow that covers the State to a depth of from three to eight feet, all of Colorado to-day awaited warmer weather.
