weeks ago, shipped from New Orleans as a mule

His weekly letters from the war countries, with

El Paso, Texas.—Mexico now has
three varieties of flat paper currency
as well as three opposing Rovernmerits.
The new revolutionary movement
headed by Gen, Jose Ynes Salazar,
which recently was launched In Cen

currency In circulation. The money
was printed In the United Slates, hears
the slßiialure of the former Huerta
commander and the? motto “peace and
Justice."
Salazar's troops at Sablnal on the
Mexican northwestern railroad this
week held up n train bearlnß a Villa
paymaster and confiscated 200,000 pe
sos In Villa paper money. The money
was helnß sent to pay the Villa gar

“Made in U. 3.”
Salazar's troops recently received a
ihi'kc shipment of ammunition pur
chased by 'heir agents In the United
States. Villa troops have made no

Traffic has been restored between
Juarez a nd Torreon on the Mexican

Cotton Consumption to Be Diseussed
By Manufacturers and Railroad Men
Joint Meeting Saturday Night
of American Cotton Manu
facturers’ Association and
Representatives of Railroads
PLAN KHAKI UNIFORMS
INSTEAD OF THE SERGE
Many Advantages of the Khaki
Over the Serge Uniform, Says
Mr. T. I. Hickman, President
American Cotton Manufactur
ers.
i Very great importance Is attached to
tho Joint meeting at the Hon Air Hotel
Saturday night of the American Cotton
j Manufacturers and representatives of the
National Association of Cotton Manufac
turers with the representatives of the
hading railroads (steam and electric)
I South of the Ohio and east of the Mis
*l* Kipp! rivers. Upon the results of this
meeting In Augusta depends the matter
| of consuming a part of this year’s enor
rm us cotton crop (practically 18,000,00(1
, hah s. )
Public Invited Saturday Night.
The consumption of cotton goods, the
value of the cotton mills to the rail
roads and the use of khahl uniforms in
plu?'* of blur serge, will be the principal
! topics of discussion. The meeting will be
open to the public. The address of wel
, coin*, in behalf of the citizens of Au
gur la will bo made by Mr. T. W. Loy
loss, and will open the session.
Representatives from all lines, lnclud
, Ing tlik* II Inois Central, the Atlantic
Coast Dine, the Seaboard, the Southern,
t!i< Western and Atlantic, the Georgia,
( the Central of Georgia, the Nashville.
Chattanooga and St. Louis, the Pennsyl
vania, the Georgia and Florida, the
! Charleston and Western Carolina, and
: many other railways of the Southeast,
I also city and interurban electric lines,
: ha 1 e been Invited.
I esident T. I Hickman, of the Am
ei ;< an Cotton Manufacturers Associa
tion, has in his office here a number of
khaki uniforms of all shades and styles,
which he will have exhibited on living
models at the Saturday night joint ses
sion. Mr. Hickman Is one of the chief
boosters of the khaki uniform plan for
cot tor consumption.
What Mr. Hickman Say*.
Mr. Hickman says:
“The cotton manufacturers of the
United Stales consumed hist yea** a lit
tle over five million bales of cotton. If
they could be kept busy, that is every
spindle running, the present year, they
would probably consume two million
balls more. Kvery user of cotton goods
can help, whether they are bought for
wearing apparel or foV cotton bags, or
for household use. In helping the cot
ton manufacturer you help the farmer
k il his cotton and help the manufac
! Hirer keep Ills help employed, and there
j aVo over three hundred and fifty thou
sand people engaged in the cotton mills,
|t » say nothing of the thousands of
! othf people that are employed directly
and Indirectly In aiding the manufactur
| ets. Ten million people are also direct
ly and indirectly dependent upon the
I cotton mills for support. The Ameri
can Cotton Manufacturers make every
thing that Is suitable feft- wearing ap
pare' for men and women, and every
character of cloth for household use.”
An Auguatan’s Idea.
Tlic idea of replacing the blue serge
uniform with khaki cloth( cotton goods)
sprung from the mind of an Augustan,
Mr. <’. It. Hudson, a railway passenger
conductor. If favored by the represen
tatives* of the railways of the Southeast
lit the meeting tomorrow night, Mr.
lliioenn's Idea will soon have every cot
ton mill In this part of the country
working night and day If possible, for
the next six months, filling orders for
khaki uniforms.
The advantages of the kahkt uniform
over the srtxu are many, states Mr.
Hickman. He says they east but 84.75
as against $.”’.50 for the serge. are
cooler In the summer time, morn com
fortable. can he easily, quickly nnd
ohe ply laundered and are the most
servo ruble kind of goods.
If there is any Idea existing that they
are unpopular It is a mlsiake. They are
w*a - p li) the United States Army from
General Leonard Wood down, the very
highest officers wearing klmki In prefer
ence to any other uniform.
Official Attendance.
Present at the meeting Saturday night
will lie Messrs. Albery Greene Duncan,
president of Cotton Manufacturers; C.
j 11 Woodbury secretary. and It. M.
Miller, of the National Annotation ot

BLASmIARBEO
WIRE DEFENSES
Number of Ingenious Devices
Have Been Made For Purpose
of Destroying this Hindrance.
The obstruction to the advance of an
attacking body of soldiers, both foot
and horse caused by well placed barbed
wire entanglements, is most effective
and although many plans hate been
tried by different military experts to
overcome the difficulty an entirely
satisfactory has not yet been discover
ed. The most modern method and the
one that is being used most extensively
in the European campaign is to blast
out the obstruction with high explos
ives and numerous ingenious devices
have been constructed for the purpose
for the belt of obstruction is usually
quite broad and to be successful the
opening must he made entirely across
by a single explosion. The method
adopted by the French army and which
is typical. Is described, along with sev
eral others, in the fourth war issue of
the Scientific American as follows:
The French instructions for the re
moval of barbed wire obstacles defi
nitely call for the use of explosives.
For this purpose long rods of melinite
are fastened In bundles of three to a
pole sixteen and one half feet long,
three inches wide, and one and three
quarter inches thick. At the end of
the phle is a collar which projects for
ward eight inches, and into which the
end of a second pole Is fitted, if the
extent of the explosion is to he more
than the length of a single pole. Each
pole has a wooden head of almost con
ical form, with a steel cap and two
tittle wooden wheels five Inches In
diameter. The pole is pushed straight
into the mass of barbed wire or along
the ground beneath it. Thanks to its
form and to the little wheels with
which it Is provided, it glides in easily
enough. If necessary, another pole is
fitted Into the collar of that already
tn the network of wire. The charge is
ignited by means of a fuse connected
with tho last bundle of melinite in tho
pole Each pole supports 99 bundles
or packages of explosive, equivalent
to about six pounds of melinite per
meter (3.2 S feet), and ts carried by
two men. A single pole will blow open
a passage about thirteen feet wide.
WHAT CAUSES COLDS /
This question and "How to Prevent
Colds” is asked a thousand times
ever)* day. A cold is really a fever,
not always caused by the weather but
due to a disordered condition of the
blood or lack of important food
elements. In changing seasons fat
foods are essential because they dis
tribute heat by enriching the blood
and so render the body better able
to withstand the varying elements.
This is the underlying reason why
the medicinal fats in Scott's Emulsion
quickly overcome colds and build
strength to prevent more serious sick
ness. It contains nature's medicinal
fats, so skillfully prepared that the
blood profits from every drop, and it is
free from harmful drugs or alcohol.
