MEXl N BANDIT VILLA
INVADES BORDER TOWN
BURNS, PILLAGES, KILLS
Pursued by U. S. Troopers---Orders
Issued From Washington to
take Villa Dead or Alive

, Mexico and with scrupulous respects
for the sovereignty of that Repub-
lie"
Army Orders Issued for Pursuit
| Army orders were at once issued
from the War Department for the
pursuit of Villa and his forces, and
the whole project is given into the
hands of Major General Frederick
Funston, who has been in command
of the patrolling troops on the bor-
der. He has been given the widest
latitude and is not to be embarrassed
by orders from Washington. His in
structions are to "Get Villa" Pres
ident Wilson looks to this seasoned
commander to run down the gueril-
las and has left to the Generals own
initiative the carrying out of the or
ders Of the administration in the most
effective way.
Gen. Funston is not unfamiliar with
the nature of the warfare on which
he is embarked. He was hero of the
Philippine campaign which resulted in
the capture of the rebel Aguinaldo,
and who commanded the second di-
vision of the army in the recent &C.
cupation of Vera Cruz. He will have
under him Brig. Gen. John L. Per-
shing, who also had extensive expert
ence in the Philippine campaigns,
and who personally leads the pursu-
ing army.
All the Men He Needs.
eve have informed Gen. Funston"
says Secretary of War Baker, chat
we stand ready to supply him with all
the re-inforcements necessary to re-
place troops taken from the border for
his expedition, and these will be sent
whenever they are required. Gen.
Funston has been informed that he
will be given all the men he needs.
We have told Gen. Funston to feel
free to use the forces at his own dis
erection and we do not intend to do any
thing to embarrass him."
Country Backs Up President
This invasion of American terri
tory and murder of peaceable citizens
by Mexican bandits and outlaws UNI
der Villa has created a crisis in the
Mexican situation that may lead to
armed intervention by the United
States and possibly war with that
Republic. Much depends upon the
way our governments determination
to capture Villa is taken by the Car
rama de facto government. If he has
the good judgment to see that it would
be in furtherance of the settlement of
the disturbed condition of his unfor-
tunate country, and can influence and
persuade his followers to see it, ac-
tual armed intervention may be avert
ed. But the feeling aroused at Wash
ington and all over the country is in
tense, and the prompt action of Pres
ident Wilson meets with the patriot
ic and enthusiastic approval of the
people everywhere. This country is
growing impatient with conditions on
our Southern border, and will no long
er be satisfied with temporizing

Swat the Fly Early

But why "swat the fly in the win
ter when you fail to see any? Lis
ten?
II am big fat mother fly and l
live in a large house, tucked away in
crack behind a door casing. The
housekeeper has overlooked me. She
thinks we are all dead. l have
friend or two in the basement and
cousin in the attic. We have seen
each other few times since winter
set in, though we hide away most of
the time. Several of my friends and
near relatives selected the barn for
their winter quarters and hope they
are comfortable. Some live out doors
in sheltered places and some in other
houses. A few of my younger bro
Tiers and sisters were still feeding in
a filthy stable on the other side of the
road last fall when developed wings
and flew away with filth sticking to
me. This filth have since wiped off
on cake, bread, and other exposed
foods in the pantry. Some of these
brothers and sisters will no doubt es-
cape the cold, as stable manure stays
warm if it is permitted to accumu-
late in stable all winter. These are
now enclosed in small, hard brown
cases and as soon as warm weather
comes shall go to the stable and sec
if can find any of them.
"My city cousin says: I'VE had
few warm days but it is still too cool
to venture out. In few days / ex-
pect to move. l am hungry and need
more air. l long for the day when l
can leave the house for a warm sun
bath. Then will find some filth on
which to lay few eggs. There was
plenty of filth around last fall and of
course none of it has been removed
during the winter. My first crop of
eggs will be laid about the middle of
March if all goes well. By the mid
die of April will have grandchildren
in abundance. By June my offspring
will have scattered all over town and
by August we will be in full possess
sion of the place, holding council in
the city hall, placing sick and wounded
in the hospitals by the dozens, and
handling the city government about as
we please. This city does not fear
us and is not prepared so by the time
