Dayton. Ohio. Aug. ia neu-
ralgic headache which has been de-
veloping since Sunday night caused
Gov. James NJ. Cox. Democratic
nominee for President. to retire to
his room at Trails End this after
noon.
The governor was only slightly
indisposed. In view Of the fact that
he leaves Dayton on his FIRST cam
paiGn tour tomorrow. he thought
it would be a wise thing to rest.
The candidate denied himself to
callers, but received representa-
tive of a group Of newspaper cor
respondents here. Through him he
sent out word that he would be all
right again tomorrow morning and
without doubt would make the trip
to Camp Perry. via Columbus, for
the opening OF his stumping tour
Thursday.
Coy. Cox attributes the headache
to the peculiar position in which he
had to hold, his head while can

With Rare Cognac
Upon Surrender
tBy United Seryice.)

San Pedro, Coahuila. Mexico, Aug
S.-Frsncisco Villa surrendered to-
day. After years of banditry and
defiance OF the Mexican and the
United States governments, the ia
nous outlaw delivered himself into
the power of the federals this
afternoon and drowned his sorrows
in a bottle of cognaC.
Villa was attired in riding
breeches, leather leggings reaching
above the knee. a cotton jacket
and a huge straw sombrero. Short
ly after his arrival he discarded
the straw for a handsome felt hat
of American make which was pre-
sented to him by his admirers.
Despite the fact that he is now
4s years old and that he and his
men had ridd en- on the last leg OF
their journey for twenty-four hours
across the desert without water,
Villa appeared to be in the best
of condition. He looked rugged,
healthy and stalwart and apparently
has thrived during the last two
months while eluding government
soldiers.

at Canutillo, Durango. where I'll
raise cattle and crops" Villa said
today.

Il have received no consideration
from the government, and do not ex-
pect or desire favor or privilege. I
do not feel bound by any of their or

go to Ireland unless the republican
government there signifies that my

Il have never been forgiven by
Premier Hughes Of Australia for
helping to lefeat conscriptio1f in
Australia and thereby saving her
from a military despotism.
He is also hostile because while l

That feeling has bseu instilled BY
