 Has Been Killed

Douglas, Ariz., Aug. BOA letter purporting to have been written by Jesus Renteria, bandit captor of Lieutenants Harold G. Peterson and Paul H. Davis of the United States army, who held them for ransom, has been received by the Douglas Daily Dispatch, claiming to have evaded the expeditionary force sent to effect their capture. The letter was turned over to civil and military authorities who are Investigating, though they said they believed it fake.
 The letter which was mailed in Douglas August 28, told of how the writer and his friends had crossed the border to seek work and of find ing three travellers in the Ojinaga district two, of whom were officers of the United States government. It was decided, the epistle continued, to hold the officers for ransom Iand they were taken to house in the hills where one was compellel to write note to his government ask ing for $15,00O ransom for their re- lease. The letter continued by stat ing that Renteria and his colleagues re-crossed the border after getting the money and evading the punitive expedition. The letter was signed by Jesus Renteria.

Az and industry IN Oman.

An Omaha woman has rather pointedly re-
piled to the complaint Of the president of the
art=promoting society, who scoIded his fellow
villagers for not showing more enthusiasm in
the sacred cause. Educate the public" says
the lady, do not criticize it," And therein
she has told the whole secret
Public taste in art is neither fixed, nor
spontaneous. Standards vary and expression
takes on such aeeting and vagarious form as TO
elude classification, even among those who may
deserve to be listed among the cognoscenti,
while the virtuosi have been known to disagree.
II is not wherefore, especially mark Of public
discredit that plain people, who mostly are oc-
cupied with sordid things, such as the high cost
Of living, have misgivings as to art Of any kind
when presented to them simply as such. But
if it be proffered as an accompaniment to some
thing they can understand, not merely as the
embodiment Of souls desire, but in form APP
pealing TO minds attuned to the music Of the
marts or the whFr Of factory wheels, acceptance
will be eagerly certain.
Art and industry are companions though not
always found together Let them Be properly
associated, and the union will be lasting and
probably in time even the close observer will
be unable to distinguish one from the other,
Omaha is yet too new. maybe, for this happy
coalescence to be perfect, but just as some Of
our substantial citizens have seen the Indian
tepee give way to the palatiaI structures that
adorn the broad avenues which have succeeded
the red mans trails, so may others who now are
here may see developed such devotion to art as
will please even a critic.
