The idea is to bring about the same

apparent intention OF attacking the

Villa was defeated by General Murguia
at Jiminez Friday. but say the Villa
force there was comparatively a small
one. Villa. they say, was in the noun

divorce upon the grounds of cruelty.
Trial Of the case was continued today

TO his wife as the plaintiff lie spoke
of her as an ideal housek eeper and
when asked TO reply to the charge in
the complaint that he nagged and
found fault with her housekeeping said
such would be impossible for there was
nothing 10 find fault with about the
way she kept house, as it was ideally
done. Concerning his earning capac-

had at times been limited and that his
father had contributed to them a total
OF some $4,000 He had kept an ac-
count, he testified, for the reason that
