MISS JENNIE HOWELL TALKS
 ON HER WORK IN BRAZIL

A large crowd had the pleasure of listening to the former Prescott young lady, Miss Jennie Howell, who is now missionary to Brazil, talk last night at the Methodist church on her work in that country, which was very in- teresting and instructive.
 Miss Howell is a true Christian character, devoting her life to the splendid work of carrying the gospel to the heather, and her sweet life should be an incentive to us to try and live at home as she is living in the heather country. She will gradu- ate at Peabody Institute, Nashville, Tenn, this winter, which will enable her to teach the Braziians in a more efficient manner.
 Her talk was mainly along the line of the customs and habits of the in- teresting people with whom she is working, their manner of living, eat ing and worshipping God. Their splendid manners are unsurpassed in any country, even our own. When one of those people receive the gospel they make the best workers in the world, contributing to every good cause and aiding in sending mission aries to other heather countries.
 Miss Howell made a strong and pathetic plea to the people of Pres colt to send more of their Christian people to assist her in htis great work.

JAPANESE PRESSING
 IMMIGRATION MATTER
President Promises AmbaSs dOi Siinda to Use Efforts to Ellfml.
 nate Objectionable Clause.

Washington, April 21.-PresidenI Wilson assured Viscount Shinda, the Japanese ambassador. today, that he would use his efforts to have stricken from the Burnett immigration bill certain provisions against which Japan has complained.
 The president is said to have in formed the ambassador, who had called at the white house to repeat to the president representations he had made. formally in the two meme- randas presented to the state depart ment, that he would confer with sena- tors and representatives in an effort to satisfy Japan.
 The two provisions of the bill especially objectionable to Japan, it was said, were one chasing Japanese with Hindus in the excluded class and another putting into law the gentle mems agreement on immigration entered into by Japan and the United States.

 Some of them are Mexicans who held high office in the Villa, Huerta Madero or one of the half dozen con. vulsions that have shaken Mexico ir the last six years. l A Mexican passes a street gronn.
 See there!" whispers one; "Vills told him to go to the bank one day with $5O,000 in gold. He came to the American side. He is a smart man and invested his money wisely" Maybe you are curious about the Mexican generals whose names have appeared in public prints for years. You can find enough of them doing porter work in El Paso cafes to form a general staff.
 You can organize a formidable rev. olution-on paper-for a dozen pack ages of cigarettes and a dollar in- vested in beer.
 Up in Detroit or Milwaukee Gen eral Blank may sound like ton of gold braid.
 Take crowded Fl Paso Saturday night street and yell General" and you can get dozen with totally good titles to the name.
 Probably all these are part of the reasons why the country at large doesn't understand Villa and the cult that made him.
 Charles Powers, who was a pay master on the Mexican Northwestern road, with headquarters at Madeira Chihuahua, does.
 Powers was in Madera when Villa declared war on Americans last De- cember He got out alive, with his American refugees, Powers and his wife spent five long days and nights covering the 125 miles from Madeira to Chihuahua.
 Villa stopped at every town and showed his captives. They expected death at every stop. Powers had his "45" in his pocket. His wife carried a small revolver in her dress. Both were ready for the end.
 "Why don't you go back and get Villa?" I asked Powers.
 q don't want him. I've had all of him want. I'll stay on this side until he's gOne."
 Powers is not a coward. either They pick brave men to be American paymasters on the Mexican lines.
 During the famous trip from Ma dera to Chihuahua, Powers was pointed out as an American railroad man. The engine had stalled on a grade and the Mexican engineer couldn't budge it.
 Villa called on Powers and sent him into the engine cab. In few minutes Powers found the difficulty AS Powers climbed down, Villa paid his compliments to the nation now hunting him down. You damned Americans know how to do every thing" was his remark.

VILLA VALUES
 HIGHLY ABILITY ] OF AMERICANS i
Damned Americans Gan Do Anyting, He Once
 Told John Powers.

Fl Paso, Tex, April 22.-No man for q month than Rancho Villa. He was born Francisco Villa. Rancho is to Francisco what Jack is to John. The border knows him only as Pan che
 In day you can collect as many views of Rancho as the number of men you can talk to.
 All agree that Villa is a murderer; q killer. they call it here. where near ly every second man carries ''gat,' CT small cannon. You get whole sale impression that Villa is a throw back to some chief of the barbarians who swept from Asia into Europe and brought with them the dark ages.
 When in power he stood his best friends against the 'dobe wall and riddled them. His. sensualty made victim of every woman who caught his eye and over whom he had power.
 His love of splendor showed in strutting and gold lace. On his cam paigns he fed the war correspondents with champagne and gave them pri- vate car. He didn't love thcn1, but he loved notoriety. He could sign his own name in a mere ScraWl. That was bis educational limit.
 But the men who fought with him and against him agree that he had marvellous organizing skill. personal bravery. rude animal magnetism that bound his soldiers to him and made many hero out of peon.
 Yet Villa for nearly all of his oS years of life has been bandit. few weeks over four years embraces his career in the worlds eve.
 Crossing the border with four men in March. 1912. he at one time com mnnded SO,00O armed men. and around his tent was camped lS.00O cavalry always his most prized arm cf servic,. Probably that was because Villa was superb horseman.
 It takes a Latin nation to develop the combination of hero and murder CT and to give it stage sDare. In colder climates the vision died
 The border understands it. for in the days of Villas prosperity he made man" an American rich. Most of them are on this side of tho bor- der otday. They don't want to cross the river.
