and Ample Rifles.
(By C. A. Brann)
There is at least one prohibition town
in Mexico. It is -Guadalupe about 36
miles southeast -of - El Paso alonj? the
bank of the Kao Grande. It was not al-
ways a temperance town but ten days
ago the insurrectos under the leadership
of Gapt. Preciliano Silva marched into
the town 150 strong and took it from tihe
Kmall force of 30 fiscal guards in control
at that time.
In taking the town-not a shot was
aired- Jose A. Rey the jefe politico
departed for some safer place leaving
behind 5iis goods and chattels in a house
which was later converted into quarters
for Capt. L. Gutierrez de Lara and his
men.
Three days ago De Lara arrived from
El Paso. There was a saloon with a
pool table and a polished bar. De Lara
himself a total abstainer recognized the
need of temperance in such times. He
destroyed the bottles containing the
liquor opened the spigots of the barrels
containing the mescal and thus was
destroyed all the liquor.
No drinking is allowed in the town.
Some cognac was saved for medicinal
purposes but this is under a special
guard and none of the men may touch
it. In this thev are obedient to the
! orders of their socialistic superior
though there is no salute and no par
ticular mark of respect shown to the
authorities. They are always addressed
as comrades but their orders are obeyed
to the letter.
The little adobe saloon wihicih in the
days when the federals were in control
was a cnost attractive meeting place
resembled an American saloon after
Carrie Nation had paid it a vfsit with
lier iiatchet.
Good Order Prevails. j
Order prevails everywhere. Guards
are on duty with Mauser and Winchester
rifles the former taken from federals
killed in battle; the latter secured by
purchase principally in ;the United
States.

Francisco T. 3Iadero provisional president of Mexico has been In Zar
goza since his hasty departure from El Paso but Tuesday book departed for
Guadalupe also In the hands of his followers. His departure to Mexican soil
Hhows fear of the United States authorities and at least a faith in Orozco
and his Insurrecto troops.
Gen Navarro Is today planning: to s end 500 cavalry and his two field gum
to Guadalupe. It was expected that the expedition will leave some time before
dark "Wednesday.
The reason for Madero's departure to Guadalupe probably Is that there
were only 100 men at Zaragoza not a sufficient number to protect their lead-
er. There are said to be more than 300 insurrectos in and about Guadalupe.
They are commanded by L. Gutierrez De Lara a Mexican socialist. Madero was
accompanied by Abraham Gonzales provisional governor of Chihuahua the
members of the recently appointed board of strtegy and the body guard of
100 men.
Wednesday mornlnpr a troop of the Fourth United States cavalry was
sent "from El Paso to Fabens which Is opposite Guadalupe on the Texas side
of the river. This Is bell eveti to be for the purpose of closely guarding the
American side of the river and prevent the escape of Madero and Gon-
zales in case the Mexican feedrals attack from the Mexican side of the river.
The United States troops came In from Pelea X. M.
The municipal chief of the towns of Guadalupe and San Ignaclo now in
insurrecto hands arrived Tuesday In Ciudad Juarez having- escaped with a
few followers. The escaped officials are Cruz Rey municipal chief of Guada-
lupe and X. Padillo chief executive of San Ignaclo.
