Newark Youth Writes
From Mexican Border
Following are extracts from
three letters written by Rudd
Alexander who is now in the
U. S. Army on the Mexican
border. The letters were writ
ten to his parents, Attorney
and Mrs. J. R. Alexander, and
the extracts are published in
The Journal with their permis
sion.
The letters contain splendid
pen pictures of silent loneli
ness, pathetic despair, childish
love of home, sublime patriot
ism, and reckless hilarity, but
gives us some idea of border
life in the war zone.
PREPARING TO HIKE
Deming, N. M.,Sunday night,
Nov. 5, 1916. Dear Mamma,
papa, sister and brother:-In
my tent, on my cot, with paper
on my knee, writing by candle
light.
Things are beginning to
look serious down here now.
We are ordered on a 12-day
hike, to begin Wednesday. I
don't believe we will ever re
turn to Deming,because we are
ordered to Columbus, the place
Cheap and big canBakingPowders do not
save you money. Calumet does—it’s Pu re
and far superior to sour milk and soda.
in the U. S. on which Villa
made a raid last April. From
Columbus, I think we will go
down into Old Mexico and get
old Villa, or else spill every
drop of our American blood
across the Rio Grande. If
Hughes is elected we will have
to dive into Mexico; if not, we
may get to come home in a few
weeks. But it makes little dif
ference which way it goes, we
have got to get him sooner or
later, any way, so better get
him now, for now is our best
chance. If we go into war, two
years is as soon as we can ex
pect to whip Mexico, for it
surely will be a task. But the
best blood on earth is on the
Border today and ready to
fight, and not afraid to die for
our country.
How are all at home? I hope
you are well. Did you get the
Jack Rabbits ears I sent? I
killed the rabbit while it was
running. Shot it twice with a
j 32 pistol. Show the ears to the
boys and tell them hello for me
and tell them I may bring Vil
la’s ears back with me when I
return. I am sending you the
Razor Back, a little paper pub
lished by the Arkansas troops.
Note the little poems; it surely
makes a boy in brown see home
awfully plain. I also send a
Wilson pin. we are for him be
cause he is a man and he is for
all who are in khaki. There is
such an uproar in the adjoining
tent I can’t write any more
now. Answer soon. Address
me at Deming and from there
the mail will be delivered to us
every night while we are on
,the hike. Love to all.
ON THE HIKE
We have been on the hike
| since the 9th of November.
Over 300 soldiers have desert
ed. Some of them have been
brought back. You can see
poor boys trudging along with
about 30 pounds of bed roll and
!a big 15 pound gun on their
| shoulder, barely able to go.
I You can see some boys falling
out al along the road. But you
know a boy gets awfully tired
after he has walked 18 or 20
j miles in a day with a weigth
j of 45 pounds on his back. But
1 have none of this to contend
with because I drive a Ford
truck, and the hike is only
sport for me. But only five
boys of the 2,500 on the hike
get to drive. The three boys,
| Hunt, Terrel and Hopewell,
who were at Batesville last
•■•vimmer enlisting recruits for
the Army had not been here
more than a week when Hunt
was attacked with spinal men
ingitis and died on the . 14th,
while on the hike. Hunt’s com
pany was quarantined and iso
lated. Several others have tak
en the disease but were im
mediately rushed to the Hos
pital.
We are now 21 miles from
| camp tonight, but intend to
reach there tomorrow. I sure
will be glad to see camp once
more. I believe we will be sent
home in three weeks after v*
get to camp. I saw young Sam
mons, a cousin of Dolph Sam
mons. He left Newark four
years ago for the Army. He is
in the hospital at Fort Bayard
taking treatment for tubercul
osis.
RETURNED FROM HIKE
Doming, N. M., Nov. 21.
I can’ tell when I will come
home. The Gazette said we
would be coming home soon,
j but that is mere speculation of
| some writer who is 140b miles
| from the scene. Col. James,who
is in command here, don’t
know' any thing about w'hen we
will come home. In fact, I don’t
care when they go. But if they
don’t leave here by January 1,
I think I will join the Navy
where I can learn something.
I like the life and country but
I want to go into Old Mexico
and get old Villa and settle af
fairs while we are down her;,
because the moment we leave
here Villa will prise up more
h—, then we will have to come
right back and guard the bor
der again.
We tested the speed of the
five Fords in our regiment to
day. My car mdde 43 miles an
hour and I won the test. The
next car made 41 miles and the
other three made 39 mileseach
an hour. Yesterday I drove
Capt. Grant, of the regular
army, to Silver City, a distance
of 48 miles, in one hour and 18
minutes. The captain said,
“Boy you do believe in push
ing the lines.” I have been
made head driver. I resigned
as company clerk. I like the
car much better.
When I come home you
won’t recognize me because
when I enlisted I weighed 144
pounds, and now I w'eigh 170
and am as hard as a rock. A
boy has to do some fist fight
ing down here. I have had sev
eral since I came and I also
have carried black eyes and
skinned head and loose teeth
several times, but guess I will
learn to fight after while.
I am sleepy and must go to
bed for I have to drive thefcap
tain to Columbus tomorrow.
I send love to all.

THE CRICKET TUNNEL
Cricket, Nov. 28.—Work of
changing 500 feet at the east
end of the big tunnel here into
an open cut will be completed
by December 15. This tunnel
has always given the Iron
Mountain railroad a great deal
of trouble, but it is fixed per
manently now. Nearly all is
brick arched. The 500 feet
changed into an open cut was
loose ground and had to be
supported by timbers.

Children’s Bumps,' Sprains and
Minor Hurts Quickly Relieved
by Sloan’s Liniment
It is the very nature' of children to
hurt themselves—to come crying to
mother with little fingers bruised, with
heads bumped, with sprained ankjes
and wrists.
They are painful hurts, too. But
their pain and sting can't survive the
gentle use of this liniment. A single
application of Sloan's Liniment and—
the little fellow’s bravely kept back
tears give way to smiles. His hurt is
relieved.
In every home where there are chil
dren a bottle of Sloan’s Liniment is a
necessity.
Aching muscles, rheumatism, lum
bago, stiff neck, backache, chilblains,
etc., can be effectively relieved with
Sloan’s Liniment. Cleaner than mussy
ointments or plasters.
Sloan’s Liniment cim be obtained at
all drug stores, 25c., 60c. and $1,00.

sequel to a crap game here,Bob
Miller, negro, has a load of

erson says he went to his home,
got a shotgun, and returning,

1 TESTED AND PROVEN
There is a Heap of Solace in
Being Able to Depend Up
on a Well-Earned Re
; For months Newark readers
have seen the constant expres
jsion of praise for Doan's Kid
Iney Pills, and read about the
good work they have done in
this locality. What other reme
dy ever produced such convinc
ing proof of merit?
John Edwards, Hoxie, Ark.,
says: “I had a dull, heavy ache
in my back and any exertion
or a cold made it worse. My
kidneys acted too frequently
and the kidney secretions pain
ed when passing. Then Doan’s
Kidney Pills were brought to
my notice, I got some and one
box made me feel much better.
After I had taken three boxes,
not a sign of kidney, trouble
remained. The cure they gave
me has lasted.”
Price 50c, at all dealers.
Don’t simply ask for a kidney
remedy*—get Down’s Kidney
Pills—the same that Mr. Ed
wards had. Foster-Milburn Co.,
