Villa Wont Stay Dead.

Not so very long ago Villa, the
Mexican bandit, was declared by
the newspaper correspondents, as
being shot through both legs and
his death was only a question of
hours. Next a horse fell on him,
breaking a leg, which, from lack
of care caused his death. Then
he was abandoned by his army
and left to starve in the noun
tains but he positively declines to
stay dead and a report from Gen.
eral Bell, at Ell Paso, says that last
Saturday the bandit chief cap
tured some of Carranza artillery
and sixteen automobile loads of
arms and ammunition in a raid
on Chihuahua. He then liberated
200 prisoners from the peniten-
tiary and made off after being
joined by from 1000 I'd 1,5OO SOL
diers of the Carranza garrison.
: According to General Bells in
formation, Villa himself went to
the governors palace and made .
speech from the balcony after his
forces had captured tho palace,

SORT OF AMERICANISM,

1t is an anomalous situation which
presents the spectacle of 1000 Mexi
cans, of all classes, fleeing across the
line-nOt from this country to Mex
leo, but from Mexico to this country
at the threat of war.
But in their act is a mute yet strik
ing tribute to the United Saees, as
we'll as a refuatino of Carranza's
charge that the masses OF Mexico are
fearful of Americas purpose They
are SO fearful, it seems, that they
flock here to be secure from peril in
case of war.
And on par with this country s
oft evidenced desire to maintain only
happy, friendly and humanitarian re,
lations with the Mexican people is the
manner in which these poor refugees
are being received. In Ell Paso, the
most precariously situated, perhaps
Of all the border cities, and where the
seven thousand crossed, not one all-
thOritative voice has been raised in
protest The refugees have been ad-
mitted wit hout question, even well
coined, fed and clothed and guaran-
teed full protection as long as they
obey the laws Of the city, state and
government. 1t does he heart of Ell
Paso credit: it does the nation credE,
it is splendidly American.

unearthed at tina Chas. Hollinger farm
in Morris township. The mound
stands right by the house where the
family lived for many years, but as it
appears as a natulsQ hill, it never ex.
cited any curiosity, %Recently, in dig,
ging, skeletons wereA discovered, and
further investigation proved that. it
was a regular native cemetery. The
bodies were evidently deposited be-
tween tiers of stone, several some
times being placed in the same trough,
a slab of artificial stone resembling a
lime mixture, was placed above to
seal the grave and five or six feet of
dirt sh0veled over that. The skulls,
especially. are in a state of remark
able preservation. In one alhof the
teeth except one in the upper Jaw in
the front, are intact.
