missing rug at The headquarters
Of Villa IN Juarez may add clue to
the evidence as to how William Ben
ton met his death. Visitors to Villas
office in the OchOa home remember a
heavy expensive rug on the floor Of the
office which was very thick and very
fine. Since the disappearance of Ben
ton this rug has been missing from its
accustomed place near Villas desk.
Friends of Benton say that this may
indicate that Benton was shot in Villas
office and his blood saturated the rug,
causing it to be burned.

Has 1t ever occurred to landholders
in some of our own towns that good
roads to their lands would not only
bring those lands nearer the markets
they raise produce for, but would also
bring those lands nearer the city

them more available for residence and
increase their value! No man wants
to travel two or more miles every day

to drive their buggy or auto ave or

offered them were such that the drive
was daily pleasure and did not put
them at an unreasonable distance from
