THE KIND OF MAN 0.
S. IS PROTECTING
CARRANZA IS SAID TO BE
ABSOLUTELY AGAINST
AMERICANS
A few Jays ago congress asked
| that all papers pertaining to the
Mexican trouble be brought forth
that an investigation be made. Ail
data called for amounted to vir
I tually the records since the inoejv
;tion of the revolutionary period in
Mexico, six years ago.
Besides the department records.
1 a report vras made by a special
agent of the secretserviee. that
; shows the kind t?f a man the Unit
ed States is protecting. The re
port says:
1. Carrania himself is the chief
instigator of anti-American senti
meat in Mexico at the present time.
2. Carrania himself has instruc
ted his generals to carry out sys- j
tentatic persecution of Amen cans
: in Mexico.
3. Carranzista generals have
promulgated anti-American senti- j
: ment throughout all the districts
. in which they are in cnotrol.
4. Carranzista generals have or
ganized and carried out raids on
! American properties in various
parts o? northern Mexico.
5. Carranzista generals have or
dered the killing of Americans.
The information reached Wash
ington from a trustworthy source,
and was partially confirmed by a
representat • ve of the American
Red Cross, recently returned from j
northern Mexico, where he has
been identified with the Red Cross •
mission, which was recently order
ed out of the country at Carranza’s !
j orders.
According to the statement of
* this agent, whose name is withheld,
the Red Cross train, which was car
rying Red Cross officials out of
Mexico into E] Paso, was stopped
by a detachment of Carranzistas.
under two Carranzista generals,
and all the passengers forced to
■ slight and line up alongside of one
j of the cars.
Then followed, he says, all the
preliminaries of an execution by a
i, firing scruac. It was not until
the Mexican soldiers had a:med
their guns that one the of generals
gave the order to stop.
Then he tore the Red Cro^ flag
off the side of the car. spat on it
and flug it into the face of one
of the Americans. At the same
time fee said:
“Goodly, Gringo, we will meet
in Sas Antonio.’’
This reference is sa d to mean
that Caraaazistas believe ait inva
sion in force into the United States
is near a; hand, and that Sas An
tonio i« to be one of the first ci^es
to be attacked.
The special agent, it is said to
rigfct. is related to a member of
the Cabinet, and was sent into
Mexico to settle rumors that Car
ranza was himself not friendly dis
posed to the administration.

GREAT PREHISTORIC LAKE
The large prehistoric lake which
flooded a number of the valleys or
northwestern Nevada at a very re
cent geologic date but has now
passed away wa named Lake La
hontan. in honor of Baron La Hon
tan. one of the early explorers of
the headwaters of the Mississipi.
The lake covered approximately 8,
400 square miles at its greatest ex
pansion. and in its deepest part,
the present site of Pyramid Lake,
it was at least 880 feet deep—that
is. its surface stood approximately
500 feet above the present water
surface of Pyramid Lake. The an
cient lake had no outlet except the
one that led straight up, its waters
being dissipated entirely by evapo
ration.
A large aerea a few miles north
of Winnemucca is covered with
sand dunes formed since the dis
appearance of Lake Lahontan. The
dunes are fuly 75 feet thick, and
their steeper slopes are on the east
side, thus indicating that the whole
vast field of sand is slowly travel
ing eastward. This progress has
necessitated a number of changes
in the roads in the southern pan
of Little Humboldt Valley during
recent years. In some places in
.his region the telegraph poles have
been buried so deeply that they
have had to be spliced in order to
keep the wires above the crests of
the dunes. The sand is of a light
creamy-yellow color and forms
. beautifully curved ridges and waves
that are covered with a fretwork
of wind ripples, and many of these
ridges are marked in the most cur
ious manner by footprints of ani
mals, which form strange hiero
giyphices that are sometimes dif
ficult to translate. (Overland Guide

INDESTRUCTO trunks are not by any means ijj;
for rich people alone. Don’t think that because
people of means so generally use them that they £;
are not well within the resources of the average family. £;
Why, we believe that if the people of this city really knew how £i
much comfort and satisfaction there is in an Indestructo trunk, |
and at what really moderate prices, hardly anybody would be Si
willing to go even through this summer without an Indestructo
Indestructo trunks have been around the world thousands of times. £[
They have been on the most strenuous exploring expeditions, and g
have come cut unscathed. Every trunk is guaranteed for at least Si
five years’ perfect service. &[
Of course they are smart appearing trunks, too. Not only are m
good, but look good. There’s some satisfaction in that.
