VILLAS WIFE
SHE REFUSES TO BELIEVE THE
MASSACRE STORY-TKUE TO
BRAVE GENERAL"

Los Angeles, Cal, March 10
The papers lie. | do not believe my
Francisco would harm an American.
1t Is a trick Of his enemies TO make
him leave Mexico and give up his
fight"
Her dark eyes flashing, but show
ing the effects of a sleepless night,
Juanita Torres Villa, the slim Is
year-old wife of the Mexican bandit,
sobbed out her unfaltering belief in
her husband.
Mothering her G-m|onth-old daugh-
ter, Juanita Marie, the child wife has
steadfastly remained firm in her
opinion that some day the troubled
waters" would be smoothed over and
she again would be at the side of the
brave general she loves.
Even when three months ago an
other woman crossed the border into
the United States under passports,
saying she was Villas legal wife the
little woman in Los Angeles did not
waver.
She has not doubted for one min
ute, her friends say. that some time
her brave general" would be presi
dent Of Mexico, and that she woulc
reign as first lady of the land"

SPRING FLOWING BEGUN
Weather i'm Hills Favorable for Work
i'm Fields.

Spearfish, March Is. - Spring
weather, which has existed here al
most without exception for several
weeks, has induced most of the farm
ers in the valleys around here to COM
mence their spring blowing, and all
natural indications point to an early
and permanent spring and a plenti-
full rainfall during the year. A few
farmers have even started discing ana
narrowing, and ii is expected that
considerable more ground VIII be
planted this year than for many years
past. Stock in all the district around
the Black Hills is reported in excel
lent condition, with plenty of hay
stacks still left. Rains of this week,
unusual at this time of the year here,
have started the young grass to grow
ing and the spring feed will shortly
be available.

Are you good looking? Are your
gowns in good style? Never before
in the history of home decoration
were the answers to these questions
so bound up with your walls as they
are today.
OF course you are going to have a
wall change this season. This year
will be a leader year in plain back
grounds. Not only win this be no
ticeable in a single room, but har-
monious tints will be carried through
out an entire floor. so that rooms
opening into one another will not
present a great contrast to the eye.
The beauty of soft tinted walls is that
in their softness and plainness they
set off to advantage any gown and
any room accessory. Your good
looks, the good style of your clothes
both depend to an extraordinary de-
gree on the kind of walls you have.
Let us assist you in selecting your
wall decorations.

FROM THE BALKANS
BACK IN SOUTH DAKOTA AFTER
SERVING IN TRENCHES OF
SERBIA.

Lead, March 13.-The first actual
participant in the European war to
reach South Dakota is John Trklor,
who has just arrived i'm Lead direct
from the Balkans, where he served
valiantly in the army of Serbia.
After departing from DuraZzo, one of
the chief ports Of Albania, he sailed
across the Adriatic to Italy, went
overland to Naples and thence
through the Mediterranean and
across the Atlantic to Boston. He
served more than the required time
in the Serbian army, and was grant
cd a six months leave of absence, his
passport, written in French, having
been signed by the Serbian minister,
Lazar Lazaravich. When he left Al
bania in January, ten miles back or
Durazzo the Italians and French ana
the remnants of the Montenegrin ar
mics were hammering away at the
Austrian forces. A three hours bonn
bardment Of the seaport town was
witnessed by TrlIlor, in which stA
dreadnaughts. six destroyers and slA
submarines of the Austrian fleet par.
ticipated. The fleet approached e
within five miles of DuraZzo and EN-.
gagged in an encounter with the lant
guns of the Serbians. Prior to the
commencement of the war Trklor fol-
several years was a resident of Lead
and his countrymen here are greatly
interested i'm his stories Of persona
experiences in the great war. III
speaks in glowing terms of the faith
fulness and cast iron nerve Of his fel
low countrymen, who made up th'
Serbian army. and is confident tina
they eventually will win back mucl
or all of the territory taken from
them by the Germans, Austrians ant
%Bulgarians and have their country re
Established much as ii was before tn
war.

AVIATOR FALLS
FAMOUS IOWA FLYER DROPS 49,
600 FEET TO HIS DEATH.

Grinnell, Ia, March 13.-W. c.
Billy) Robinson, n of the fore
most of American aviators and head
of the Grinnell aero school, was in
stantly killed at 4:20 Saturday after
noon when his biplane, in which he
was trying for an altitude record,
plunged to the ground from a height
of 10000 feet. AS the machine
struck the ground, the petrol tank
exploded and the resultant fire de-
stroyed the plane and burned the ayi-
ator's body almost beyond recogni-
ton. The accident occurred near
Ewart, Ia, ten miles from this city.
Robinson was 80 years old and is
survived by his wife and four chill
dren. He had lived at Grinnell near
ly all his life and was very popular
here. He had been in the flying
game about six years and was holder
of a record for sustained flight,
which he won a year ago, flying with
out a stop from Des Moines to Chi
cago. over the latter city he became
confused. owing to a heavy fog he
encountered, and finally landed sew
eral miles to the south, near Ham
mond, Ind.
The a~viator's body was brought
back TO Grinnell by relatives.
witnesses estimated the height at
which Robinson was flying at $4,000
feet. While flying at that height the
machine appeared to wayer and start
ed to fall. Evidently realizing his
danger, Robinson e~ndeavored to vol
plane gradually TO the earth and for
more than 500 feet succeeded in hold
ing the machine in its spiral, gliding
course. The next 500 feet. according
10 witnesses, was marked by a series
of f%luttering drops. at the end OF
which Robinson would succeed In
righting the machine for a moment
When 500 feet from the ground
however, he lost control completely
and the machine darted to the earth
The aviator was known as a eau
tious flyer and avoided the spectac
ular feats that characterized the per
formances Of his contemporary, Lin
coin Beachey.
