Strike Big Flow
ArteSian Water

The men boring wells on the prop
erty of the Nevada Stock farm south
OF Reno have struck flow of hot
water at a depth Of 400 feet. The
flow is about sixty gallons minute.
The water has temperature OF no
degrees, and is clear and apparently
free from minerals. Samples have
been sent to the pure food laborator-
les for analysis. and if it is found to
be free from injurious minerals, pipes
will be run from the we'll to all parts
of the farm and the water used for
stock.
The well is near Moana Springs
and it is thought that the same STRAIT
um of hot water existing at the
springs has been encountered which
assures continuous supply of water.

there are not pleasant reading for the friends of
Mexico.
II there is one man Of whom the Americans
interested in Mexico have hope it is Antonio
Villareal. He enlisted early in the cause of Car
ranza's constitutionasts and fighting steadily
up to the date of the taking Of Monterey, in the
capture OF which he assisted. Then he was ap-
pointed governor Of Nuevo Leon. He was men,
toned many times for his part in the conference
at Torreon. which followed the first open break
between Carranza and Villa and later Carranza
offered him the post Of war minister.
He acted as president Of the second or Aguas-
calientes convention. it will be remembered. Car
rama, when he began his short period of glory"
In Mexico City, made Villareal minister of finance.
but Villareal became disgusted with the inepti-
tude of the Carranza crowd and resigned.
villareal is quiet and unassumng in manner,
and this means more in Mexico than 1t would in
the United States. He is thirty-eight years old,
well educated, and speaks good English. having
been a school teacher.
When q youth he became involved in a dispute
with rival to a certain woman's affections and
killed him.
He served four years in the penitentiary. But
with this he has the cleanest record of any man
in Mexico who is in a position Of power
Villareal once was editor Of a Spanish paper
published in ST. Louis. He is daring and at the
same time tactful He is not antagonistic toward
way to accommodate them. In his bold frankness
and hatred of shams he is much more like an
American than any of the other Mexican leaders
Carranza and Villa both like Villareal and he
Is the only man they both like While he has
always protected foreigners and even forbade the
publication Of antiAmerican articles in Monterey
he was much hurt by the presence of American
troops in Vera Cruz. This was the one thing
which stood in the way of his approval of things
American. -

in ability and character, to Americans. He is
great military genius, but no civil executive and
he knows It. His game now Is to be the power
behind the throne-to rule through the de facto
Mexico City president, Eulalio Gutierrez If Villa
ever attempts to occupy the presidential chair he
will probably travel the rest Of the road of Diaz
Huerta and Carranza in short order.
Before the present troubles started Gutierrez
was q watchman employed by the big Mazipul
Copper company at Zacatecas. This concern owns
