MEXICAN JOAN OF ARC

For a Few Hours Sunday She Kept
Things Alive.
Juarez.-For a few hours Sunday a
Mexican Joan of Arc was the dictator
of this town. With 10 rebel soldiers
marching at the heels of her horse,
she rode up to the police station and
disarmed the provisional chief of po-
lice and six of his men. The rebels
rode away mounted on the police
horses.
The woman ~fearlessly entered stores
and demanded and received provi-
sions. And then shortly before day
light she rode out of town with her
admiring followers. The woman,
young and beautiful, is said to be the
wife of Colonel Lazro Alanis, the rebel
commander, who is operating around
Palomas along the border to the west.
1t is believed that this militant
spouse goes to join her husband after
her raid on this town, which is unpro-
tected except by a few police installed
at the departure last week of Orozco's
rebels.

BY The Chinese GOVERNMENT
OFFICIALS WAS Of The
NAPOLEON WAY.
Claim Is Made That 1t Is TURNING
Point of the Chinese Republic
Some Fear for Lives of High-up Of
ficials-Several Southern Generals
Put to Death.

London.-The execution of Chang
Chen WI by Chinese government Off
Gals is compared by the Picking cor
respondent of the Daily Telegraph to
Napoleon's shooting of the due d'En-
ghien at Vincennes in 1904 and what
followed. 1t is the turning point, the
writer asserts, in the life of the Chi
nese republic. The correspondent
continues:
President Yuan Shi Kai, alarmed at
the cutlery, is publishing Vice Presi-
dent Ii Yuan lungs kilograms in or
der to fasten the blame on that Off
cial and, fearing assassination, sur
rounds himself by troops.
According to Chinese
the execution was carried out in a
fiendish n The Zimmerman
general, Yuan Chi Keul, who was en-
trusted with the execution, actually
dined with his victim in a European
hotel and toasted him repeatedly.
When the dinner was over he followed
his victim in another carriage to his
lodging.
On %alighting from the vehicle Gen
eral Yuan Chi Keui blew a whistle as
a signal, whereupon a forest of sabers
and bayonets sprang up like magic
about Chang Chen WI, who was
seized, bound, flung into a mule cart
and carried to the military court. ..
NO evidence was given at the trial
and the accused officer was con-
demned to immediate execution.
The first volley not killing the pris-
oner, repeated volleys were fired until
the general body was completely dis
emboweled. A message was sent to
the victims wife for more clothes, as
her husband felt cold in the night air."
Sun Vat Sen Goes to Peking.
Shanghai.-Dr. Sun Vat Sen, former
provisional president of China, disre-
garding the warning of friends who
fear for his safety since the execution
OF several Hankow generals, left
Shanghai Sunday for Picking. General
Huang Sing, who commanded the
southern republican army in the revo-
luton that overthrow the imperial
government, was to have accompanied
DIR. Sun, but abandoned the journey.
The southern generals recently put
to death were members of DR.. Sun Vat
Sens party, the Tung Men Hui, and
were seized at the capital by direc-
ton OF President Yuan Shi Kai on the
charge of being implicated in an al
legged conspiracy against the Picking
government. Two of the officers were
tried by drumhead courtmartial and
shot. The others were returned in
chains to Hankow and there executed.
