CHIHUAHUA CITY IS
INHANDS OF REBELS
Gales Announces Capture OF
One Of Largest Cities in
North Mexico.

Aqua Prieta, Sonora. - chihuahua
City, capital Of the state of the same
name, is definitely in the hands OF
the revolutionfsts, it was announced
by General P Elias Gales Saturday
Chihuahua City is one of the largest
cities in Northern Mexico. 1t has
population of approximately 10000.
General Ignacio Enrique, candidate
for governor of Chihuahua, according
to General Gales, was at Santa Ysabel
with $500 state militia, marching
toward chihuahua to reinforce Cen
eral Eugenio Martinez and Colonel
Francisco Arco, former federal com
mander. who deserted with their
troops.
Telegraphic communication was es-
tablished between Chihuahua City,
Santa Ysabel, Hermosillo, capital OF
Sonora, and military headquarters Sat
urday. General Gales said he was
in direct communication with General
Enrique.
The revolutionists control virtually
all Northern Chihuahua, it was said,
with the exception of Juarez, opposite
Ell Paso, Tex, and Casas Grandes'
near the Sonora boundary.
At Casas Grandes Carranza troops
have been concentrating for three
weeks for an attempt to invade So
nora and wrest the state from the
revolutionary leaders.
The revolutionists claim they have
between 5000 and 5000 troops under
their command in Chihuahua. These
include infantry, cavalry and defense
societies" or home guards"
General Gales issued a statement
which said in part:
"The revolution is sweeping for
ward beyond all expectations. In less
than ninety days Carranza viii be
deposed. Justice once more will pre-
vail then in Mexico. The Carranza
forces are revolving so rapidly there
is no failure"

HIRAM EVIDENTLY A SNORER
Faithful Wife Thought She Rec
ognized Porcine Lamentations as
Made by Her Lord and Master.

An amazingly fat couple boarded
sleeping car just before the train
pulled out of the Pennsylvania station
in New York. and soon retired, the
woman taking the lower berth and the
man the upper of a section. 1t was
necessary to enlist the aid of the por-
ter and couple of friendly passen-
gers to enable the man to attain to
his lofty couch, but it was accom-
plished and the car presently became
quiet.
Some time during the night the
train was held up on a siding and, as
it happened, the sleeping car was
stopped right alongside car loaded
with uncomfortable and loudly protest
ing hogs, the noise of whose lamenta-
tons assembled to the stars.
ooh, Lord !" the occupant of the low
err berth was heard to moan. "Just
listen to that Hiram has started to
snorin' and / can't get up there to
make him turn overt"

few women lawyers actively engaged
In the practice of law and says she
hopes the women of the state who are
preparing to make fight before the
Legislature when it meets in May will
be successful in obtaining ratification
of the federal amendment. She says:

for doing so are greater than at any

for the so-called states rights question,
I have heard no lawyer of any conse-
uuence argue that the question OF
states rights is involved. or course,
there are people who, seeking pre-
text to justify themselves IN their op-
nosition. clamor about states rights.
These people are against us and while
we hope to see the amendment ratinea

Idea Born of SeIf-DeIusion.

It's a common thing for canned"
folks to get deluded idea of the
esteem in which they are held. They
would have you class them among the
them restored to their homage. What
bosh it all is. You may find some
tiny minds that get enamored OF your
bluff and count it real. There are, too,
some who seem not to have the power
to give folks just rating. They dis
count worth on the one hand and
toady to weakness on the other. But
that's only occasional. In most in
stances it's only the would-bes that are
deceived.
