Women and Children Leave Et Paso.
Many women and children have left
the city for the north, fearing the
possibility of an invasion into El Pa
so by the Mexicans before the Anter-.
ican army can reach here in num
bers sufficient to protect the town.
Many women, however, refused to
leave and will remain with their hus
bands and families. Many women
have offered to join the red cross and
care for the wounded.
Tijuana Expects Capture.
TIJUANA, Mexico, April 24.—The
Mexican federal commander at Tiju
ana has issued orders to all non
combatants in this city to leave at
once, as he intends to place the city
in condition to withstand an attack J
fro mthe American forces now in
San Diego just across the border from
this city.
The Mexicans are throwing up en
trenchments and are placing the city
in readiness for an attack which is
from the American forces now in
San Diego number several thousand
and are expected to try to capture

Alaska Boats For Transports.
SEATTLE. April 24.—The officials
of the Admiral Line here have tel
egraphed to the War department of
fering them the two steamers, Admir
al Dewey and Admiral Schley, which
are now on the Atlantic coast and
ready for service. The boats are of
fered as transports and may be used
by the War department to take
troops to Mexico.
Waiting for Canal to Open.
The Admiral Line have had the
steamers ready for several months,
but because of the delay in' opening
the canal they have been forced to
keep the boats in the Erie basin in
New fork harbor, hoping every day
that a permit for the passage of the
boats would be granted.
Want Pacific Coast Vessels.
A number of shipping brokers have
approached the owners of large
steamers operating on the Pacific
coast for charters on the boats, as
the government will need transports
on this coast to take troops from
Califonra to Mexican ports at Guy
mas, Mazatlan. and possibly other
coast towns.
Maryland Goes South.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 24.—The
cruiser Maryland sailed from here at
noon today for Mazatlan oh the Pa
cific coast of Mexico, which city she
will bombard and reduce and land
marines at as early a date as possi
ble. The ship held 300 extra marines
for shore service.
Band Playing A* Ship Sail*.
As the big cruiser passed down the
bay the Maryland’s band was playing
the “Stars and Stripes Forever," and
later changed to the “Girl I Left Be
hind Md.” The ships yards were
black with the sailors and marines
who wa(ved good-bya to .those |on
shore and on the passing boats which,
gave them a parting salute, blowing
their whistles until the cruiser was
out of the harbor.
Prevalence of Constipation.
While by no means confined to
either sex or to any time of life, con
stipation is one of our most com
mon complaints. Constipation is on
ly a symptom. To ignore the cause
and tinker with the system is fool
ish and dangerous. No other fea
ture is productive of bo much evil
as the habit of taking cathartics
without knowing the cause of the
constipation. Osteopaths are special
ists in constipation. A single treat
ment seldom acts like a dose of salts,
blit with the cause removed relief is
assured. adv.
