GOVERNMENT READY FOR EMERGENCIES

Infantry to Move Toward Rio Grande Next Monday, According to Reports Issued By Department. "WASHINGTON, March 12. The orders sending the seventeenth and ninth regiments of infantry to the Mexican border provide that they get under way Monday, it was learned today at the war department.

"These are all the troops," said Secretary Garrison, "that the department

contemplates moving at present;

there is no necessity which requires a

larger patrol along the Mexican bor

der than these additional troops added

to the force there at present."

With the arrival of the ninth and

seventeent regiments in Texas, the United States will have nearly 18,000

troops within striking distance of

Mexico.

Protection Needed. The administration's explanation that these additional troops are being ewnt to the Mexican border because of requests made by members of the Texas congressional delegation that the international line be more efficiently patrolled, was regarded today as a correct statement of facts, but the belief developed here that the Mexican situation was approaching a crisis which also strengthened the orders for movement of troops. Recent dispatches of a confidential nature have stated that machine guns were being sent to Mexico City for the protection of the American legation there. Democratic members of congress made no secret today of their belief that the despatch of more troops to the border indicates that the government is preparing for an emergency.

William llogan, of Winchester, who taken in charge by the police Tuesday an a charg? of begging, was released on the promise to leave the city immediately.

OPPOSES CENTER STREET SEWER A verbal remonstrance against the opening up of Center street and a

sewer system was made today by At-1 torney Kelley, who appeared before j the board of public works for one non j resident property owner. He said! this improvement was desired only by a manufacturing concern which) had purchased property on the street! because it was cheap, and that the I

proposed improvement would be a real hardship on most of the property owners because they were poor peo- ' pie. He also said if this street was im- : proved it probably would divert traffic to and from the north into the ctty and prevent the railroad company from constructing an overhead structure across the dangerous "Rich's" crossing. West. Fifth street, which street it is now proposed to improve under the three mile gravel road law. Decision on the resolution was postponed until March 19. A resolution for cement walks, curbs and gutters on South G street from Eighth to Thirteenth and a graveled roadway from Ninth street to Thirteenth, was adopted.

TO BE

DISCUSSED III CITY

Meeting of Friends Board Will Be Held Here Sometime in April.

Consideration of a plan to reorgan

ize charity work in Mexico on a united basis, will be taken up at the

meeting of the executive committee of

the American Friends Board of For

eign Missions to be held in Richmond

In April, the secretary, Charles Teb-

betts, announced today.

"Charity work in Mexico has proved uneffective and is almost disorganized

by the strife there," Mr. Tebbetta said. "When the nation is restored to a more quiet condition, .the charity

work done by organizations of this

country probably will have been or

ganized along entirely different plans

from the present system.

"Except that the twelve or fourteen organizations working in that field may united, nothing definite has been

sent out by the promotors of the plan

The various executive boards will have the matter up for consideration

within the next two months. Developments can be expected soon." The entire charity board of the national organization will hold its annual meeting here in October.

Soda Relieves Indigestion or Acid Stomach

EXPELS TW0 PUPILS Prin. Pickell Tells Culprits to Leave School.

i

Few Stomach sufferers know that

Indigestion, Sourness and Gases are not caused by a lack of digestive juices, but result always from acidity, meaning there is an excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach, which retards digestion and promotes food fermentation. Everything eaten sours in the stomach like garbage sours in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases which inflate the stomach like a toy balloon. Then we get a heavy, lumpy feeling in the chest, we belch gas and eructate food or have heartburn, water brash, bloating and nausea.

A well-known authority states that a 10 grain Sodagen tablet taken any time, followed by a tumbler of water instantly neutralizes these stomach acids; stops fermentation, absorbs the gases and sweetens the entire digestime tract. He says any pharmacist can supply a package o 10 grain Sodagen tablets, as they are constantly prescribed for stomach acidity because of their harmlessness to the digestive organs, being composed of Soda, Calcium Carbonate and Magnesia.

Expulsion from school was the penalty given two high school boys. Warren Meranda and Eugene Quigg, who confessed to painting the numbers "14' on the walls of a corridor in the high school building. The painting was done about two weeks ago. Both are members of the high school basketball team, and as a result of their expulsion were not allowed to make the trip to Bloomington today, where

the local school is to participate in the state meet. A meeting of the seniors was called yesterday and Principal Pickell said that if the guilty parties would make a clean breast of the outrage he would treat them squarely. He said today he had not, decided on any further action.

Two Additional Carriers Put on Richmond Mail Force

TO MEET TONIGHT

Members of the First Presbyterian church will hold their annual meeting tonight at a supper to be given in the church basement. Officers of all

church organizations including the church, Sunday school, men's club and various women's societies will make their annual reports. Officers of the church appointed recently will be submitted for the approval of the congregation. The past year has been prosperous for the church, officers say. A railroad man found a snail walking along a rail, and measuring its spread for a certain distance found it traveled one foot in four minutes, or at a rate of one mile la 142.3 days.

After going through six months of corresponding, presentation of statistics, rigid examinations by inspectors and other means of proof that Richmond's growth requires additional men in the postoffice, the postal department late yesterday notified Postmaster Haas that two more carriers would be allowed in the city, making eight new employes Mr. Haas has obtained during his term as head of the local postoffice. With only three days to district the city, the postoffce employes have a big job on hands, as the present districts have not been changed for three years. The order is effective Monday. Superintendent of Mails Handley has prepared a new postoffice map of the city with the new districts. In

stead of seventeen city routes there j

will be nineteen and the parcel post

delivery. The postoffice department has also allowed extension, and Benton Heights, Bungalow Hill, Peacock and Commons road from West Fifth street to Easthaven avenue, Main street street from Twenty-third to the end of the cement sidewalks, and a short strip on North Nineteenth streets, heretofore not included in city delivery, will receive mail by city carriers. Claude Smelser and Lee Ramsey, both of whom have been substitutes for about a year and a half, have received appointments as new city carriers. Fred Stauber will have the parcel post route, while Henry Knauber and Charles K. Thomas are the new substitutes. The number of mounted carriers in the city was reduced from three to two, Route No. 8 in Wert

Richmond being changed to a "walk" route. Application for new carriers was first made in September by the postmaster. Inspection was made by fed

eral inspectors to whom the local office was required to furnish proof of

the necessity of the increased force Average 111 Pounds.

The average weight of mail passed by each of the city carriers, including the parcel post man. is 111 pounds a

day. Some of the heavy business av erages about 150 pounds a day.

New racks and counters must be obtained and all cases must be relabeled. The clerks must learn the location of every route in the city under

the new system. Superintendent Handley announced that before an application for mail de

livery could be recognized proper receptacles for mail must be provided. Slots in doors or boxes are permissable. The renumbering of the houses must also be done before the new service is inauguratd. City Engineer Charles has the plats and maps of the city in his office in the city building, showing the correct number of the houses on the streets.
