VILLAS
FIRING SQUAD BY
NARROW MARGIN
Michigan Man, Sentenced to
Death, Given an Eleventh
Hour Release.

KALAMAZOO, Mich, Feb. 19.-Cap-
tured by Villista soldiers in the state
of Sonora, Mexico, sentenced to die at
the hands Of the firing squad" only
to escape to the American border
with the aid Of friendly Mexican,
was the thrilling experience OF Ben
Butler, Of this city, son Of DR.. and Mrs.
Paul T. Butler.
Buffers escape is considered re-
markable in view Of the fact that
more than twenty Americans have
been executed by Villas soldiers in
the last few weeks.
Young Butler has been at Naco,
Ariz., for the last three years operat-
ing an automobile garage. He had es-
tablished a motor stage line from Naco
to Cananea, Mexico, distance OF
about fifty miles. Butler has been
operating through Sonora, which has
been largely controlled by Villa
troops.
Had Carranza Passport.
When Carranza was officially rec
ornized as provisional president, 1t
was necessary for Butler to operate
under Carranza passport in order
tn get back and forth across the Dor
Ger line with his bus.
According to letter received here,
Butler was captured by band of VIII
listas near Cananea and when
searched the Carranza passport was
found. Two American automobile
drivers had been assassinated near
where Butler was captured and for
time it appeared that his fate was
sealed.
After some deliberation it was de-
ctded to hold Butler over night, but IT
.ppeared that his execution would oc-
cur early in the morning, as the band
was being hard pressed by Carranza
troops, and they were travelling rapid
ly toward the mountains.
Arranged lie Should Escape.
Rutler for some time had been
sympathizer Of General Villa, believ-
ing that he was better fitted than
Carranza to restore order In the
troubled republic. He told this to
one of the Mexicans who had appeared
friendly to him and it was arranged
that he should escape across the Dor
der instead of facing the firing squad
in tho morning.
On reaching Naco. Butler sent a
teleeram to his father, telling him
that he was safe. His letter describ-
ing his narrow escape followed.

In Search for Cure Some En-
counter Philantmopists with
Fake Treatment.

y NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-The Sun pre-
sents statements by four men who by
their own admissions were addicted to
the use of narcotic drugs for years.
Three OF these men sought cure
either at Bellevue hospital or at the
Z Metropolitan hospital and all tried
private treatment. What they may
have to say as to the treatment in pub
lie institutions is best told in their
own words without comment. They
describe 1t as agonizing and danger
Gus, differing In each institution.
They have something to say also
about the drug situation in the city
from the viewpoint OF an addict. since
the passage Of the Boylan and .Harri-
son laws. Drugs, they say are for
those who have the money TO procure
them, and the traffic continues still
with a roundabout journey 10 protect
the manufacturer or wholesaler. They
speak OF the Italians as having a mo-
nopoly Of the sale OF morphine and
the Greeks as controlling the sale OF
an inferior grade OF heroin to tho
drug user. Their statements are TAX
enas strong support for the argument
Of public officials and private persons
that the city should see to It that It's
treatment of those afflicted should be
standardized and centralized.
