ODDS IN FAVOR OF
 VILLAS BEING ALIVE
Consul Letcher Knows Nothing of Discovery of Bandits Body Mexican Officials on Border Offer Usual Explanation.

Fl Paso, April 17.-General Gavira, Carranza commander at Juarez, an- nounced tonight that the Mexican telegraph wires between JuareZ and Chihuahua were blown down near Pearson about noon today and for that reason he was unable to learn any further details of the reported discovery of the body of Francisco Villa. About the time the announce ment was made a telegram filed at Chihuahua City was received by the Associated Press from Consul Let cher saying that nothing was known there regarding the finding of the bandits remains.
 These two circumstances combined to reinforce the growing skepticism here as to the truth of the story that death has ended the career of the fugitive brigand. The story that the dead man is Pablo Lopez, the notor- ious leader in the Santa Ysabel mas sacre, and that Villa has deliberately used his death as the basis of false report of his own decease, has been revived. This story was retold by ar American owner of ranch in the Guerrero district, who said he had received it from his ranch forema , and believed it to be true.
 Mexicans Still Confident. | However, the confidence of Mexi- can officials that Villa is dead has not outwardly diminished. It was said that if the body had been brought to Cushiruirachie it might take the better part of day to transport it from there to Chihuahua City. The roadbed between these two points Is in a deplorable condition like that of all other railroads in northern Mex ico.
 An average of four or five miles an hour is normal on the railroad and Cushihuirachie is 60 miles from ChiA huahua. With hopes of Villas death dwindling, attention here was direct ed today to a far steadier and more insidious foe with which reports say both Americans and MeXicans ae confronted. The reports state that typhus fever is raging in northern Mexico and is assuming the propor- tions of a great epidemic
 ! These reports said that the Mexi- can people, ill nourished and living under the most unsanitary conditions, are almost helpless to resist the ray ages of the disease. There are few doctors in the country and almost all of the American physicians who for merly lived there have fled across the border.

ACTOR TALKS TO SELF
 BY TRICK PHOTOGRAPH

A good example of what trick pho tography can accomplish is shown in the double exposure scene that forms part of the climax in "The Crown Princes Double" the latest Vita graph Blue Ribbon Feature. Maurice Costello, who plays the two charac- ters, is shown on the screen confront ing himself, with no break or mark on the celluloid to show how the illu- sion was made.
 "The Crown Princes Double" pro duced by Van Dyke Brooke, tells of the efforts of a Prince to avoid re- turning to his native land after his exile. He is happily married in this country and employs his double to foil the efforts of conspirators who try to lure him from his wife.
 Maurice Costello plays both roles in his usual accomplished manner Others among the east are finders Randolf, Thomas Mills, Howard Hall, Anna Laughln and Norma Talmadge

It is probable tina. four out Of FIVE

infected from the meat or milk OF
tuberculosis animals.
The drift OF opinion OF medical in.
Investigators is towards the belief that
tuberculosis is essentially a disease
OF childhood. That all who are in.
fected with the disease In childhood
do not suffer from 1t in later life
is due to the fact that their general
