Drive Villa Back.
Reports were that the Carranzistas
had driven back the Villistas for a
distance of five miles, using machine
guns, and artillery, and that the 'Vh'
listas are now fleeing in automobiles
from the battlefield.
United States government reports,
however, were very much to the con.
trary., Reports here were that Car
ranzistas were not winning the bat

the other hand:Vilhstas were steadily
heading northward. J."
Details of crushing defeat to the

the dispatch is that the killing of 600
men, wounding of 300 more. and the
capture of 300 men, is claimed by

Miss H, the matron Of a girls

one Of the Carolines, relates this
story: ~. -
She had often told her island
charges about the customs of her own
native land, and was highly pleased
upon receiving in invitation to q
Thanksgiving dinner; to be held on q
neiehborins island and given by one
OF her graduates, who had proudly
specified, that rbast turkey would be
on the bill Of fare. ~" .>
! Miss H. was delighted, and told
het pupils .. Wherein on one of them
arose and said: :
1T gives me great pleasure to think
Of yonrf !, coming Joy, Miss H,
though It gives me pain, Also, to
think, Of losing Mr.. Turkey from our

seeing that turkey on our island for
mapy years, he being the only resident
turkey we have there. But If In his
ripe old age he is to be eaten, I'm
sure, Miss H., Mr.. Turkey would
rather be eaten by you than by any
other person"
Convinced that his death would be
an undesirable sacrifice, Miss H
sent her hostess word that she pre-
ferred seeing Mr.. Turkey to eating
