tributed his plumber to the poor of his
district
Villa is uneducated, but not ignorant,
unless the record he has made is all
dream.
When Madero camped his rebel army
before Juarez he was Immediately
joined by Villa, who had hastily
gathered more than 500 men and
marched them overland. His military
ability was in evidence even then.
as on his march he had made it a
point to acquire a number of 1910
rifles, and he had the only squad in
the entire army capable of fighting his
enemies on equal terms with the
Mauser rifles.
Villa gave Madero some trouble be-
cause Of his desire to go right into
Juarez and fight it out, and he finally
did that very thing against the wishes
Of his more timid chief When Madero
saved the life Of General Navarro from
Villa and Orozco by a shrewd trick
the latter became deeply offended, but
Villa looked upon the move as legiti-
mate and liked Madero all the more
for it.
Madero pardoned Villa for all past
offenses and put him in his army when
he assumed the presidency. Huerta
was Villas commander. and that officer
ordered Villa shot for some alleged
offense. Madero ordered Villa to the
penitentiary near Mexico City and
gave the opportunity of escaping. While
confined Villa learned to read and
write little. Here are some of his
achievements as his friends look at
them:
He has drilled his army and provided
for it through his own efforts until it is
admitted that he has the best drilled and
equipped force in Mexico.
He has captured more than one-half
the total artillery in Mexico and has
formed an efficient artillery division.
He buys hay and grain and ships it to
his cavalry and keeps that arm Of serv-
ice in a more efficient condition than do
the federals.
He has the best hospital corps in Mex
fco and gives better care to his wounded
than does the regular army.
He has a working commissary depart
ment which has managed to keep his
troops we'll supplied and furnished them
with the necessary ammunition even
when it had to be struggled across from
the American side ....a r.. r.
He has established order in every town
captured, always closing the saloons and
keeping them closed as long as his army
occupies the place. He does not use
liquor and says the saloons cause all the
trouble commanders have with their men

He was outlawed and shortly was con-

Will Cook Eggs, In Three Minutes and
Beans While You Wait. s
Portland, Ore. Springs hot enough
to cook beans and boil eggs in three
minutes have been found within a
short distance, Of Portland. They are
on the Clackamas river, thirty miles
south. Of Estacada and seventy miles
from this city.
These springs are fifty in number,
and one throws out a stream seven
inches in diameter. The springs have
been known to the Indians for many
years. A French half breed named
Michel Arquette, a trapper, hearing an
old Indian of the Molalla tribe speak
Of hot springs this side Of the range,
made an investigation and found them.
The springs are supposed to be the
hottest in the world-22O degrees.
Beans have been cooked in the larger
spring with the same dispatch as on a
stove. Eggs encased in mesh Of
any kind have been cooked in three
minutes. Even fish have been caught
in the Clackamas river and without
being taken off the line have been
dropped into the spring and in a very
brief time cooked to turn.
The waters come from solid rock
and are strongly impregnated with
salts, but not Of sufficient strength to
make the taste Objectionable. ~.
Many stories are told by the Indians
with regard to the wonderful proper
ties of these springs, and they have
been known to cross the mountains
from the reservation on the other side
to battle in the water of the big hole
as they call it.

congenial and profitable occupation,
entering the employ of the Austin Ma
tional bank as general utility clerk.
Through her business ability and by
close study of banking methods, she
rapidly worked her way up until she
now holds one Of the most responsible

state. In addition to her official duties.
Miss Corbitt acts as the adviser and
business representative of a number
Of wealthy women of this city, who
