Ernest Zea will go to Fair Oaks tomorrow to sell cigars. Mr. and Mrs. Orlen Grant, of Lafayette, came Sunday afternoon for a visit with Mrs. Mattie Grant ant Van Grant and family. Orlen is steadily improving from his attack of paralysis about a year ago and his complete recovery is probably only a matter of a few more weeks. The organization meeting of Rensselaer volunteers which was to have taken place Saturady night, was postponed until Wednesday night of this week, owing to the fact that there wa3 not enough of a crowd on hand to make the meeting a success. The meeting will be held during the banc concert and several patriotic speeches will be made. Word was received here Sunday afternoon that Co. M was among those ordered to entrain for the 'border at 4 p. m. Sunday, but it was only one of the many groundless rumors, of which there have been so many the past few days. Will Orpet, University of Wisconsin student, on trial at Waukegan, 111., for the murder of his sweetheart, Marion Lambert, is plainly worried as his trial nears its end. His own testimony seemed to make an unfavorable impression on the jury, which has not wholly been removed by the subsequent introduction of evidence which has been very favoraible to the defense.

MEXICAN PLOTS THROUGHOUT U. S.
Planned to Blow Up Troop Trains and Destroy Property In Many States. Brownsville, Tex., July 2.—A general plot of Mexican agents in the United States to cause the destruction of American property and probably loss of life in all parts of the union has been discovered here by secret agents of the department of justice. The plot is said to have had its inception in Brownsville, a local Mexican lawyer who recently moved across the border at the request of the committee of citizens, being alleged to have been the chief conspirator. Ramifications of the plot extended to the plains of Kansas and lowa, where are employed thousands of Mexicans as section and harvest hands, shipped up north by employment agencies on the border. Among other things, troop trains were to be blown up wherever feasible and arrangements for the wrecking of sixteen regular mail trains on the International & Great Northern, the Southern Pacific, Frisco, Missouri Pacific, Kansas City, Mexico & Southern, and the Kansas branch of the Union Pacific railroads had been completed. Twenty-five hundred Mexicans in the middle west and north Texas are now under surveillance and the moment one of them makes a doubtful move he will be arrested and immediately deported. It is even stated that the plot extended to New York City, against public officials.
