GENERAL REYNA EXECUTED.
Noted Mexican General Faces Fir
 ing Squad in Nogales, Sonora.

General Francisco Reyna, who had figured prominently in revo lutions in Mexico in tine last ten years, was executed by a firing squad cf Federal soldiers in No gales, Sonora. across the inter national line from here, late last Monday afternoon. He was al legged to have been caught dig ging up rifles, saddles and am intuition from the ground in So nora, fifteen miles west of No gales, by Federal soldiers. '@ General Reyna. who lad been living in Santa Cruz county, Ari zona, about twelve miles north west of here, was captured last Monday morning, and was i'm mediately taken to the Nogales, Sonora, jail, where he was tried by military cOprt, and Sentenc- ed to be shot.
 Mexican officials said that after Reyna was captured, soldiers unearthed 30 rifles, 30 saddles and 10000 rounds of ammunition at the spot where he was dig ging. Reyna and his chauffeur, Cayetano Garcia, of NoGaleS, Sonora, were arrested by fifteen Mexican soldiers under com mand of Captain Francisco Con gales. Garcia is still in the No gales, Sonora. jail.
 Before the rebel general died he exonorated Garcia from all charges of having been implicat ed in the proposed uprising, stat ing that the chauffeur was simp ly hired by him to haul him to the place where he had the rifles saddles and ammunition buried and that he knew nothing of any of Reyna's plans.
 General Reyna and about POO followers, it is alleged, planned to launch new revolution on January 1. He also was charg ed with having had connections with leaders of another propos ed revolution. The alleged lead CTS of that affair were arrested in Nogales, Sonora, about two months ago, and were executed afterward in Hermosillo.
 Reyna was arrested by United States officials here at'that time but later was released.

sequently, film companies are eager to achieve
as large representation in the news columns
as in the advertising section.
To attain this end the P A. sends out
mass of publicity relating the progress of his
organization, the newest pictures released,
news Of older features (if he can get it print
ed, and any other matter that in any way
at all will help sell the pictures
Most of this contains some real news; other

ton. Yet it is likely TO be we'll loaded with
what is known as "hokunl"; in other words,
neutrality-suspicious. press agent boosting. A
good bit of this is chapped out, but in cases
where the company sending the stuff is a gem
erous advertiser the blue pencil may prove
more reluctant.
It's hard enough to put over good pictures
and popular stars, but when the P. A. is
called to support poor star in poorer pic
ture he feels quite like giving up the ghost
And as few companies are without their Ozark
horses and practically none of them without
an occasional weak picture, his usual state Of
mind is far from tranquil.

IN this case it seemed advisable to come right

When the plan was preached the p A. was
adamant and his idea was put over The fac:
was that the stars contract had been I'M

been widely published. Consequently little
surprise was left to work with

was prepared and m Ned out to exhibitors.

much more unsaid, adding finally that they
were invited to participate in celebration

way open for the hroadside that immediately
followed. When the last luscious word of
praise coined and collected in behalf of the
star had been read by the exhibitor, the latte,

presses it, right off the smack and the lots

But no one, notwithstanding this was thrown

structively destructive of the Five Points was
done util in 1850 the New York Ladies' Home
Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal
Church organized the Five Points Mission,
which was to have decisive influence in the dis
trict. The Five Points Industrial House. found
ed also in 1850 and incorporated in 1854. to
take care of destitute children, also did much
to relieve the situation.
The original Five Points Mission-it is still
in existence, at 50 Madison Street, as is the
Industrial House, at 155 Worth Street-was

Yet, even when everything is propitious the
Z. A. finds his work sufficiently difficult. He
has to deal with the temperament of his stars.

In trade papers particularly he is confront
