VILLISTAS
RECRUITING
Poems
Promise Villa Will Lead Them and
They Will Get Rich Loot From
Fleeing Americans.

(By United Press Association.)
Columbus, New Mexico, MAY "a
Villa bandits are recruiting in the
wake of the Withdrawing American
forces according to information re-
ceived here today from Pershing's
front.
The remnants of the bandits dis
persed by United States troops are
conscripting poems at the gun point,
telling them Villa is coming to lead
them and promising rich loot to be left
by the Americans on their flight
north.
General Pershing sent several scout
ing parties south of the advanced base
to gather information regarding these
rumors.
Headquarters received today what
is said to be information relative to
the elusive bandit which is that he is
in the region west of Parral. Little
Importance is attached to this report.

1 ing than the American side of the 1 town. The abode huts seem well con l structcd and the public buildings arc
 not to be laughed at This was the view that greeted Sergeant Pickup and his detail when the sun arose l over the eastern hills the following morning. The men at this post had little chance to slumbcr as a most 1 harmonious chorus of jackasses that ! ever prayed worked hard all night During the night Cook Dyson handed out some sandwiches to the boys. They were also supplied with soup, thanks to Musician Anderson who carried the heavy pail all the way from Camp Little.
 Nogales, Arizona, has a district known as Little Mexico" and it is a typical Mexican town itself. AL
 though the "Americanized-Grea may be little improvement over the natives, they are nevertheless lazy shiftless lot For the most of them a mattrass and battered piano box are the necessary fitting for house. As I haven't got real chummy with any of these "Greasers' I cannot state what else their home equippage con-
 sists of Corporal Eddie Ogren and
  section of the town. Generally Eddie is the best little sleeper in camp, but last night he didn't feel like snooze at all.
 Corporals Hubbard and Orcut eX- perienced no trouble at their respec- tive posts. Private Roberts carried 1 out his orders to the letter in regard to fat Mexican Watchman built la Pickup. The waterman refused to stop when Roberts told him to and knowing of no other way to bring nlm to a halt. he dug the muzzle of his rifle into the mans stomach about foot. The fellow stopped. Corporal
 Hibbard insists that he did not go
 to sleep once during the night, but fails to explain how it was that Ser geant Duffy and Musician Anderson took his sandwiches and gun away from him without hearing 9 protest. All of Hibbard's detail was on active duty except Private Henry Briere who was otherwise occupied.
 During the evening the regulars were called out to do a little police work at one of the movie theaters. A gang of soldiers took possession of the roof and then began to cheat the ticket taker by dropping in via the aerlal route. T lAed piNOh0ttS III tile hands of the regulars restored peace in short order.
 Corporal Emsinger had to use his guard only once last night and that was when two fair CD senoritas lost their way and had to appeal to the lucky sentinel for aid.
 Necessity is truly mother of inven- tion and when a bunch of mon even though they be naught but clerks in time of peace. are put to the test they can accomplish things. The afternoon some of the boys turned stone mason with Sergeant Chamber lain as chief hod carrier constructed a useful wash stand at the end of the street.

here. The Fr&t Connecticut Regiment is to have a field day and on the pro- gram will be baseball games, dashes. 100 and 220 yard hurdle races, equip : ment races, obstacle races, jumping signalling and relay races. This will break the mOnotony of camp life and drilling.
 Indications are nov that number of the boys have fallen below in their physical examinations.
 Today a couple of flies arrived in camp, so our orchestra will be further augmented.
 Today tho official change took place whereby we lost Musician Bigge who is now first cOrnetist with the First Regiment band. He has proved himself q good bunlzie and the boys hate to see him go. II is probable that he will be made assistant leader of the band when it reorganizes.
 Nogales, Arizona, July 26.-The arm of Uncle sam is surely long. and heavy one, working with ma- chine-lille precision upon even the sleeDy-eyed who do not heed the harsh sounds of reVeille. As a reprimand for nOn-appearance in response to the buglc's silVery notes, caused by lack of speed with the lcggin laCings, Ser geants Pickup and Chamberlain have had a day at fatigue. Last night the formers cot broke under his weight ana now he is seeking other quarters.

The boys are wondering if the paymaetcr and his burden suffered Q like fate. It was rumOred that our pay would be 1 forthcoming tomorrow, but the men ! can't be convinced that the paymastor l did not start from Hartford on a l burro and won't be here for year or two yet.
 Mexican Souvenirs Arrive.
 Captain Ladbury displayed some real Mexican curios today He was able to secure them through the me dtum of the first train that has crossed the border from Mexico in four months that pulled into the sta tiOn today. The more astutc of tho NcNicans are taking adva1t0go of tho craze and are bringing in quantities of such thin&s. Keep an eye open, girls, for inc boys will soon be shOWcTng the friends back home With relics Of Mexico. They have ear rings like the s2noritas wear as well 2s bracelets and other feminine trim lcts.

 Nogales Arizona, July 24.-This has been a day of days. Lots doing. This morning plans were laid for a drill under the direction of the ser geant from the twelfth regular infan- try but they fell through. A hike with the regulars was the order of the morning instead. AS I have re- marked before, life at Nogales seems to be just one examination after an- other Today we have spent several hours suffering the pounding and questioning of a small army of phy- sicians. At least no one can say he has been slighted. When the re- turns come in 1t is feared that the roster of Company l will be somewhat depleted so don't be surprised if in the meantime you are advised that a number of the boys are rejected and en route back to New Britain.
