ordered by Villa when he heard that
the Federals We're heading up the rib
Grande toward Juarez, with the idea
of surprising the rebel garrison there
and capturing the town.
While his cavalry were hunting
down the remnant Of the troops that
for two weeks had resisted the at
tacks of his soldiers and yielded ony

the plans for his next campaign. This
will be against Torreon, which Villa

his base of operations against Mex

Troops Sent South.
From his adobe headquarters the
rebel commander issued orders for

declared that 800 prisoners had been
captured and that all of them had
been or will be executed.
"All traitors to the republic will be
executed as traitors" said Gener Il
Villa to a Hearst correspondent, who
succeeded in reaching his headquar-

Among them are scores of children
and women. The food supply here is
inadequate to feed all the hungry, hd.

COMES
WITH VOW
T()HA()NT
WOMAN
Remarkable Two-Year Battle for
Life Closes in the Arms of
Aged Mother.

With his last words curious
mingling of love for his mother
and accusation of his wife, Eu-
gene II. Grace, a paralytic since
he was found in his room on
West Eleventh street with bull
let in his spine, died at his home
in Newman, Ga, at IL 80 o clock
Monday morning, on the bed
where he had lain for two years
helpless.
To the last moment of life Grace
persisted in his accusations against
his wife. Until he became uncon-
scious he talked calmly, accusing his
wife time and again of shooting him
as he lay sleeping.
For more than an hour before the
end came Grace lay silently, with his
eyes closed, only the faint beating of
the pulse showing that life yet re-
manned in the pain-racked cody.
Then the eyes opened. glazed and
wondering. and the lips moved. His
mother bent closed, her ears laid
against the lips Of the dying man to
catch his last words.
Dies in Mothers Arms.
And then. with his mothers hand
clasped in his and her arm about his
shoulders, the end came.
Oh > ~ Ja,
noon Grace, though racked with pain,
was rational and spoke calmly with
the relatives who were gathered
about his bedside. Late Sunday he
began lapslng into Inconsistencies
still fighting death with the grim de-
termination that made his case so re-
markable.

shortly before the end, IN win yet

Then the dying man lapsed into

lirium he talked Of playing the game

Graces fight for life was one of the
most remarkable in modern medical
records. Since March 5, 1912, when
he was mysteriously shot, he had
been a hopeless cripple.

HOT REP[ !
Of MAYOR
WIDE Ms
BREACH
Cummings Declares He Will Ig-
more Answer to His Bitter At
tack on Woodward.

Politicians were awaiting with
interest Monday the outcome OF
threat to have the Grand Jury
investigate graft charges against
Fire Chief Cummings made in
a yitriolic letter signed by Mayor
Woodward. The letter was Mon
days contribution to the Wood
ward Cummings feud which has
ragged at intervals for months.
II was in reply to the Cummings
attack of Sunday in which the fire
chief had applied character assas-
sin" and other warm terms to the
Mayor. In language and temper both
letters bear a marked resemblance to
the interviews given out by the two
men at the time of the Council probe
some months ago. except that both
are much hotter.
The Mayors attack. except for
yelled threat of a Grand Jury inves-
tigation of alleged graft in the fire
department, has little in it that the
public has not already heard or read
Not Afraid Of Probe, Says Chief.
Il certainly am not afraid Of &
Grand Jury investigation or anything
else that Mayor Woodward insti
gates" said Chief Cummings Mon
day after he had read t! Mayors
denunciation.
There isn't any reason that !
should fear him or his continued
abuse of everyone for whom he forms
dislike. There wasn't anything new
in his letter of Monday morning. Elk
cept for a change of a name here
and there, it almost might have
passed for any one of his other TRADES
that have become familiar to the
public.
1T was so much what ! anticipated
that hardly believe there will be an
occasion for me to make a formal re-
ply. 1t was not my intention to start
a long newspaper controversy that
would disgust everyone in town BY
his abusiveness. l merely wanted to
make public my opinion and let the
matter rest there. l hardly think
there is anything more for me to say
or that there is anything in the May
or's letter demanding a reply"
Mayor Woodward retorts to Cum
mings' observation that it is only the
Mayor grazing hair and years that
saves MIN from the calamity OF a
physical chastisement by saying that
he never has dealt with Cummings
personally and does not intend to do
SO at this time, his quarrel with the
fire chief being only against his OF
fetal conduct as the head Of the fire
department..
Calls Chief "Biaekeuard.'
The fact that the feud is entirely
'mpersonal does not prevent the
Mayor from describing the fire CHIEF
thinking apparatus as a degenerate
brain" and asserting that the CHIEF
mas assumed the plane of black
guard, where he properly belongs
Mayor Woodward pays his compli-
ments to the chiefs veracity by de-
caring that he wouldn't believe him
On oath and that, in fact, he would
much rather believe an informal
statement by Mr. Davidson, Cum
mings' accuser, than believe the chief

PLEADING
By Beau Esprita

Themis. Queen of Law and Order,
Teacher Of the abstract right,
Hidest thou beyond the border
Swallowed by our pickering light?
We were weak and weary pilgrims,
Toiling on with none toguide.
Stumbling, falling, till the chill. grim
Hand of sin swept us aside.
All the way was rough and broken,
Barren of a warning sign.
And we had no single token
That would bind us to the line,
True, we know that God is gracious,
Heard that might must needs be just;
And. acrost gulf so spacious,
Saw our children-in the dust!
Themis! Queen of Law and Order!
Punish us for what we did;
But for these un-sinning, quarter,
Let their pure young forms be hid.
What we did we did minimizing
Few of us are willful-wild-
But we'll take our pain unblinking
If you will but spare the child.
We will give our lives-how gladly
But to shield them from thy wrath
Reused when. carelessly, or madly.
We essayed the downward path.
Suffer then, these our dependents
To be free from blame and blight;
We have paid with our repentance.
Needest thou more. oh Abstract Right?
Themis. Queen of Law and Order,
Teacher of the abstract right,
Hidest thou beyond the border
