Humor aue Philosophy
HARD ON THE FACE.
By DUNCAN N. SMITH


Do you suppose that any folks
Conversed from day 10 day
In language such as Shakespeare USED
In working out a playR
II they essayed the style he slung
When he was at his best
They'd have TO stop from time to time
And give their jaws a rest
A steady stream Of sentences
In hifalutin style
His characters rolled from their
tongues
And talked Il all the while.
They never stopped TO chew WORD
Nor for a breathing space.
Nor into slang did they descend
Just to relieve their face.
The varlet. knight or roustabout
who couldn't read line
Rolled gnsried and jagged language
out
In manner superfine.
They simply scattered gems OF
thought
As colts In spring shed hair
And. were they learned or untaught,
Right with the goods were thcre.
In battles fierce and awful stress
Or In the heat OF crime
They had their feelings to express
In stilted prose or rhyme.
They may have tossed words in the
breeze
AS pictured in the play.
But how I'd hate TO have to ease
Myself of thought that wayi

NARROWING STORY
TOLD IN LETTERS
Cremation Of Bodies of Ameri-
cans Detailed By Friend
ZELAYA VERY SECRETIVE
Nicaragua's Ruler Kept the Knowledge
of His Treatment of Groce and
Cannon From the Public
and Had Bodies Burned.
ZELAYA VERY SECRETIVE

New Orleans, December A-(speciai.)-
Full confirmation Of the cremation Of
the bodies Of the two Americans, Leon
ard w. Groce and Leroy Cannon, after
their brutal execution by Zelaya's orders
at Ell Castillo, was received here yes
terday in letters from Bluefelds. These
contained all facts first brought to New
Orleans by Theodore w. Bouchelle of
Baltimore, a cyanide chemist in the Lone
Star mines, who was friend Of qroce,
but gave most narrowing details of the
despicable crime. According to Bou-
chelle's statements, Zelaya did his best
to prevent the knowledge of the execu-
ton of the two officers from being made
public. In order to prevent Identification
OF the captives, he ordered that their
bodies be burned to ashes and the ashes
be thrown into the San Juan river. De-
serters from the army of General Toledo,
Zelayas commander In the San Juan
del Norte campaign, told of the butchery
and Of the awful indignities to which the
Americans were subjected, both before
and after death.
The letters received here today gave
further details of tho crime. They said
that Bluehelds people were shocked be-
yond expression and 1t was freely said
that the barbarities perpetrated upon
the Americans was the worst known in
the long list of Zelaya's atrocities.
First the writer's said the tyrant made
the Americans walk a great distance
yoked together with a heavy yoke around
their necks. In addition to this heavy
weights were tied to their heads so that
they could hardly stand under the strain.
As they were led to the execution ground
they were jeered, spat upon and beaten
and before the execution during the days
In which they were begging for Glenn
ency they were beaten daily.
After the revolving scenes Of the exc
cution when the two Americans were
whirling in their death agonies it 10
charged that the half savage soldiers
seized them and threw their bodies upon
a pile of wood which was to be their
funeral pyre. OIL was thrown on the
flames and the soldiers were forced to
stand while the cremation took place. Az
ter the cremation the ashes were spat
upon by the barbarians. Every indignity
was heaped upon them and American
traitors was placed on q placard over
tho place of execution. The desecrated
ashes were then swept into the San Juan
river where they mingled with the cur
rent.
