Occasionally a criticism ir received

Why don't yeu print big paper

There arc several reasons why In

In order to read a blanket news
paper through one must take from
three 70 four hours.
A paper like the star. which can
be read quickly. contains all Of the
current news Of ths day. both tela-
graphic and local This fact can be

People Who take papers like
the star are always well informed.
They read what Is pus before them.
A second reason why the star II
kept down Ia small size Is because
II IL enabled 20 give better returns

Business men advertise simply to

-YAQUIS ON WARPATH
BETWEEN 5000 AND 1000 IN
dams UNDER ARMS.
Several Americans and MeKieans Have
Been Killed, and Inhabitants OF
the Yaquin Valley Are In
State of Terror.

Ortiz, Mexico, Aug. 3.-Any doubt
that the Yaquis are on the warpath in
earnest was dispelled when news
reached here that several Americans
and Mexicans had been killed in
pueblos, or towns, in the Yaqui river
valley, east and southeast of this sta
ton. The courier who came in with
the news of the slaughter declares that
he saw desperate 6ght at point
forty miles southeast of Ortiz, and that
he has positive evidence that }. +.
Remly, a merchant of Hermosillo and
E. Miller, photographer, in his en-
ploy were among the killed. Remly
was one of the best known Americans
in Sonora. The inhabitants of the
towns in and near the Yaqui valley
are in a state of terror.
General Torres, commander of the
first military zone, which includes So
nora, Sinaloa and Lower California,
who was in the field with the Twelfth
regiment, is reported among the slain
No information is obtainable as yet
of the number of fighting Indians un'
der arms, but if the outbreak is of the
proportions of the war ended in 1897
the number may be placed at between
1900 and 1000.
