CATTLE KING IS
 EXILED BY MEXICO
Gen. TcrraZa'S, Worth S5,OO0, 900. Living at Fl Paso at Ago Of
 80 Years.

El PasO Tex, Aug. 30 Each rVo- ming at sunset, an old man with silver white hair and a snowy beard may he seen walking around and around the plaza taking his daily exercise With his two body guards
 He is General Luis Terrazas. the oc- tOgenarian exile from Mexico who lost virtually all his great fortune in the revolution of MadcrO and Villa and is now forced by political >Ondi- tiOns in the country to live on the border. When the MaderO reVoIu- ton started in 1911 Don Luis" was known as the cattle king of Mexico. His herds numbered more than 200,- 900 head and graZed on a thousand hills and plains of Northern MeX- co. His estates stretched from the Rio Grande to Chihuahua City and he could ride for A hours by train over his own acreage, which then numbered more than million.
 trOm his offices in the state capital General Terrazas governed this vast cattle empire. conducted a bank and many other industries connected with his cattle business He and his large IamllN lived in luxury in the marhie palace on the Alamada or at Ouinta Carolina, his summer homo on the plalnS> Train after train of cattle ar- rived at the border from the Terrazas ranches. His annual export averaged 25,OOO head and the ''T Running s. brand was as we'll known at the Chi CagO, Kansas City and Forth Worth stockyardS as it was in Mexico. The Terrazas holdings were estimated as worth $5,00O,000 (gold) but were rot for sale at any price.
 Now General Terrazas and his fam ily live in d rented house on Golden Hill. he rides to his office in an old automobile and buys his groceries from a cash-and-carry store.
 The reVONltiOnists under Mddero, OrOzcO and other leaders killed the TcrrazaS cattle for food, burned his ranch buildings and footed his stores and warehouses. Then Francisco Villa, acting as commander of the north for General Carranza issued q decree confscating all of the Terrazas holdings including the heds, lands and personal property. General TerrazaS was forced to flee from Mexico before Villas advance on Chihuahua City from JuareZ. He made the long trip to the border at Oiihaga with the fec

 'The liGhtShips being necessarily near the channel ways, are freouently colided with. In January, 1912, a schooner ran into Diamond Shoal light vessel. The master. in his re- port, describes the damage done and states that the scamcn and also the cook worked manfully all night in
 trying to save the mainmast, and that repairs having been made, the
 light having been kept burning as
 usual and the ship kept in right
 position unless very severe weather sets in the vessel will stay here until relieVvd.'
 "Thc directions of the Superinten-
 dent Of Lights in 1929 to tEe master of a light vessel instruct him not to slip or cut the cable, or suffer it to
 be done in any event and if the vessel should be likely to founder to abandon
 her with his crew.
 'LightShips are placed in locations off the coast, where it would be i'm practicable or nCedleSsly expensive to
 build a lighthouse, and they usually
 mark the approach to a port or bay
 or the outer limit of an of-lying danger. They arc also sometimes used in inside waters. They may be mOOred in the channel or close to it, and they have the advantage over most light houses. that d vessel may steer direct ly for them without danger so long as collision with the light vessel is avoided, and also that they may be moved and mOored in another posi- ton when change of conditions or necessity requires On the other hand, l a light vessel is more expensive to i maintain, and there is the possibility 1 of it's being driven from it's station, l though this is reduced in recent years 1 by improved vessels and moorings.

I can explain the scarcity Of coal IN this

would not now be at war, il our coun-
