There are but few of the old soldiers living in Plainville and practically all of them have arranged to participate in the exercises. Automobiles will be pro- vided to transport them over the route of the parade, old age having made most of them so feeble that they are unable to stand the rigons of the march to the cemeteries. This year the exercises will be held in Plainville in the morning, the mem- bers of the post, its auxiliaries and the school children meeting at the Town hall at 8:30 to begin the day’s activi- ties. The following order has been is- sued by Commander Douglass and Mrs, Agnes Sheldon Potter, president of the “Comrades: Another year passed, a year nearer, fewer survivors, but there is afforded a few of us who re- main for a little time on this side, of honoring the memory of our Comrades who have passed over, by the observ- ance of Memorial Day. “Let us with willing hearts and ready hands, join with the people of Forestville and Plainville in this hal- lowed and sacred service. “Let all the people be welcome, and especially let the hearts of the young be enlisted, for our last work as com- rades of the Grand Army of the Re- public is to transmit the spirit of high Christian citizenship to the school children of our land Who are the priceless legacy to the coming genera- tion. “In compliance with general orders from national, department, and post Theadquarters, the comrades of this post, the W.

His letter follows: i “Las Clenegas, May 17, 1916. | “We left Hachita at 1 a. m. by an | order from the war department and | marched all night to Las Cienegas | | fit | where we took L. and M. troop’s camp which had been left unprotected. “At Lang’'s ranch two thousand head of cattle were selzed by the U. S, customs officers, which Mexicans had .muggled over the border, and the partment must have got word of an attempt to come across and get them. L. and M. troops are there now and we are at Las Cienegas awaiting orders. Two detachments were sent out last night one to Alamo Huaco and a place on the border known as Hatchet ranch. I was to go but got detailed as assistant to the wireless which duty consists in listening for messages. “The militia has been order out in the border states and we had quite a little sport with the Arizona militia before we left Hachita. They pitched camp near us and were going to do all kinds of things to the Mexicans. “A detachment was sent out from Hachita about a week ago to a place called Antelope Wells. Gen, Salazer, one of the generals we had in con- finement at Fort Wingate for crossing over the line with his army after a defeat by Villa, and who was acquit- ted of breaking neutrality laws, was reported in that vicinity, but the de- tachment returned with no trace of him. ‘““We are getting the best of food here that can be obtained. The gov- ernment has a contract with the Dia- mond A ranch which furnished us live beef at 7 cents a pound. For dinner we will have roast beef and gravy, mashed potatoes, creamed peas, Yorkshire pudding, bread and butter, iced tea and apple pie. For breakfast we had hot cakes, butter and syrup, corned beef hash, bread and coffee. We also have all kinds of vegetables in season. “I've got a bunch of photo’'s of Villa’s troops on their return from the raid at Columbus. They were taken by a soldier and are rather a select bunch. I will forward them later.” Young Dimes is a member of the twelfth cavalry and is a son of Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Dimes of Crown street. Lower Insurance Rates, First Selectman W. J. Johnson has made a new contract with the Aetna Insurance company for insuring the town building. The new agreement will cover a period of three years, the town to pay $150 as a premium. Under the old arrangement the town signed up for but one year at a time, paying $50 for protection dur- ing that period. Although the new plan will throw the insurance pre- mium for three years onto the ex- pense account for his administration, making it possible for his successor to make a better financlal showing, the selestman has decided that the saving Is worth while even should it impair his report.
