What Villa Said

There is some though a really vital coI.- flct of testimony what General Villa said It first reported that he told the American gov ornment go hell. Later witnesses have changed this language slightly without modifying it. Accord ing them Villa told American government to come instead 'go;" he did not tell thia government in so many words to hell, to presumably, Mexico where he was The careful reader cognzant of the situation Mexico will perceive that this distinction and not q real difference
 There many excellent people who believe that hell is here earth, and if in Mexico at the present time would not know where to look for We that Villa knew what he meant by his invitation the American government and that he the irate citizen usually means when he extends an invitation to his neghbor to go perditon
 We construe the diplomatic language of Villa to be an invitation to the great American govern quit foong engage in armed inter- ,ention
 Whether MT. Wilson will :he request of General Villa is doubtful. Though the language in which it couched was have shown not profane, yet it will probably be regarded by the president disrespectful unworthy of at tention.
 Snch language passing between individuals in private life produces of com mon one is blow. In other the person so addressed considers invitation and usually de- cides not accept u for the that to go to hell would involve complete change plans it would bring him a destination widely separated from the place where he had cached his treasures
 For part doubt that what Villa said invitation "go o the mat with him. to put up or shut up. It IS to be said of the an- guage of General Villa is more direct than that used in either of the numerous British and German notes

DAMAGE DONE
 BY LATE FIRE

Fire last night partially destroyed the contents of the combined restau- rant and candy store. owned and managed by Mrs. Roth and Mrs. Sul- livan, in the Creighton block on North First avenue
 The fire was first discovered at about 11:30 in the rear of the build ing by Merchant Patrolman William Bradley. The alarm was responded to by all three fire companies, but by the time they had arrived, the flames had eaten their way into the store room. and practically destroyed the contents of the room in the rear used as a kitchen.
 Mrs. Sullivan and her niece left the place about 11:00 o'clock Prior to that time they thought something sus- plclous was going on and an inVesti- gation was made. though nothing that looked like fire was discovered
 The fire was one of the hottest that has visited the down town section for some time. When the company from Central Station arrived and broke into the front door, the heat was so intense that for a moment or so it looked as if the firemen would have to back up But they persevered and soon had the blaze under control from that point In the meantime. another company had been throwing water from the rear, extinguishing the blaze that was threatening the rest of the building
 The stock of candies. tobacco and most of the cooking utensils were de- stroyed. It was stated last night that very little insurance was carried.

 In addition to this amount. of course the student must pay his share of the expenses-board clothes, and' incidentals, which might easily average more than $500 If another $500 be added for los sof time, when the boy who is in school might be earning money. would have $500 per year -or $3200 for a four-y term.
 Well, that's good lot of money. but it ought to be good investment. At 6 per cent it would be less than s2O0 and from purely commercial standpoint it would probably Do that college graduates average more than s200 a year in earning power above the young men who have never been to college.
