Francisco villa was a patriot" a few
months ago. when he took up arms against Por-
frio Diaz BY his daring he rose to leadership,
and II was his army that opened the way for the
rebels to the City OF Mexico. and led TO Diaz's
abdicaton and flight. He became our friend"
when he rebelled against Huerta, and was
thanked for his services to humanity" Then
he served with Venustiano Carranza, and was
high in the council that named the first chief"
as leader. Unspeakabe crimes we're then be-
ing committed throughout Mexico by the army

army who is guilty? Did his final refusal to
follow Carranza make him responsible for all

villa is not TO be admired in any sense but
Il is not at all certain he will be generally &C

A lively convention just adjourned at Craw-

urban property In Nebraska is protected from
destruction by volunteer firemen. These men

INSTRUMENTATION Of Europe.

OMAHA. Jan. ALTO the Editor of The
Bee; As the question OF repopulaung
Europe by stimulating marriages is very
vital one at the present time, would
like YOU to print the following IN the
letter box:
Many people seem TO think that
woman Is very immodest and unnatural
II she loves a man without him MAKING
all the advances at first. The most neces-
sary and the best thing for the world Is
that a woman love her husband II Is
not nearly so necessary that the husband
love the wife. Take the case OF the
woman loving her husband, but the hus-
hand not loving the wife. The woman
will be glad TO bear children like her hus-
hand. Her children will be good, pure
and beautiful, for she will be good, pure
and beautiful in order to win her hus-
band; and her children will be forgetful
OF themselves and thoughtful of others,
for the wife will think more of her hus-
band than OF herself. Now take the other
case. No matter how much money and
attention the husband gives the wife. she
will not love him. for love cannot be
bought The wife viii not want children
and will do all she can not to have any.
II Is OF such a marriage that the ma
jority of immoral men and women and
murderers are born Either the husband
and wife should each love the other. or
the wife should love the husband. II the
husband does not love the wife. he should
at least be honorable and support and
protect her well. for the children she
bears will be a Joy and benefit TO him
self and the word. So II the men want
the world to be repopulated ard improved
they should marry women that love them
and not lodk for one they think would
please them better. God did not make
several women for Adam and let him
take his ehoices God gave him one woman.

THE DISTRICT COURT

4 A jury was in attendance at the dis
trict court this week, but found little
to do, only two cases being brought to
their attention. The first was that of
Alex J. Thompson against the Sweet
Jessup Canal company for $677.35 for
damages caused the plaintiff by the
breaking of the defendants canal.
At the close of the plaintiff g. testi-
mony the case was nonsuited except as
to the amount of $42 and the jury
brought in verdict against the defend
ants for this amount and costs.
In the case of Elias v. Smith against
the town of New Castle, being q SUIT
for $500 for damages said to have
been sustained by plaintiff by reason
of defective sidewalk maintained
through the negligence of the
defendant town, q directed verdict
was obtained, favorable to the defend
ant corporation. At the close of the
testimony of the plaintiff, Kingsbury
& Mayes, as attorneys for the town,
moved for directed verdict in favor
Of the town, on the ground that the
plaintiff had failed to show that the
town had been given proper notice.
Judge 6humate sustained this conten-
tion and directed the jury to find for
the defendant. The jury was dis
charged Thursday evening.
