TEST OUT SEAPLANES IN NAVAL MANEUVERS
Officials to Experimei- With Air and Water Craft As Scouts for American Fleets.
WASHINGTON, June 20.—For the first time in the history of the American navy experiments to determine i the availability of hydroaeroplanes for scout duty at sea are to be undertaken during the summer maneuvers of the Atlantic fleet. Six of the sea planes are no v.- being put aboard the cruiser North Carolina, station ship at Pensacola naval station, which has been ordered to take part in the maneuvers.
The North Carolina is fitted with a catapulting device by means of which hydro-aeroplanes can be shot out in the air in any weather, no matter how I rough the sea. The device was recently perfected and is an advance over anything In foreign navies. Heretofore it has been possible to use the air craft only in calm weather when they could be dropped over side and rise from the surface of the water. The North Carolina would be fitted also with a hydrogen generating plant and carry a kite balloon for observation. It is to operate as a scout in advance of the* fleet and tthe hydroaeroplanes will be employed to extend her radius action. It is planned to allow the balloon to rise above the ship to a considerable distance during the maneuvers and officers in the basket connected with the ship by telephone will direct the fire of the guns from this altitude. If the plap works out successfully every fighting ship in the r.avy will be similarly equipped.

HOW TO GET RID OF A COLO. Summer colds are serious. Read how C. E. Summers, Holdredge, Neb., got rid of his: '1 contracted a severe cough and cold and could hardly sleep. I got a bottle of Foley's Honey and Tar and the very first dose relieved me. I took a second dose before going to bed and can truthfully say I did not cough all night. By using as directed the next two days my cough was entirely cured and 1 give Foley's Honey and Tar full credit for my speedy recovery." Foley's always soothes and heals. Children love it.

"The Mexicans are desperate," a refugee from the El Valle district said. "Even though their attitude otherwise might be friendly, hunger is apt to force them to attack an American supply train."
Both' El Paso and Juarez remained outwardly calm today but in both towns soldiers were kept close to their camps. The number of Americans orossing into Juarez today was smaller than usual but none of them reported any manifestations of hostility. Educated Mexicans, some of whom have been living in El Paso and others who have arrived here recently from interior points in the United States, have been crossing the frontier in large numbers recently, asserting that their place in the crisis is with their people.
T. F. Edwards, consul in Juarez, established a desk in the American customs house for the transaction of diplomatic business. He denied that the consulate is to be closed but said it is to remain in charge of a clerk, open at specified hours for the transaction of commercial business.
Detachments detailed by General Francisco Gonzales, on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande, and Gen. George Bell, Jr., on the American side, to Investigate reports that the body of an American, killed in Texas had been found on the Chihuahua side, reported they were unable to find any trace of such a body.
