AMERICAN YOUTH
|. SAW MURDER IN
MEXICO, CLAIMS
Arthur Hughes Says He Was
Compelled to Witness the
Brutal Staying of a Cow
boy on a Ranch
(By The Associated Pressl

Douglas, Ariz.. Jan. PA story
of intimidation, amounting to viru-
al kidnapping, was unfolded here
Saturday, according to officers, by
Arthur Hughes, an American youth,
who, according to the statement,
witnessed the brutal murder of
Viviano Cordova, Mexican cowboy,
about ten days ago on the ranch of
3. A. Packard near here in Mexico.
Hughes made a statement to coun-
ty officers here. According TO this
statement, the armed Mexican
slayer of Cordova, forced Hughes
TO remain with the murderer until
Cordova's body was disposed Of,
and then to accompany the slayer
to the United States.
Believing that Hughes told a true
story and has given evidence which
will prove valuable when the muir
derer is apprehended, officers gave
the young American his freedom.
The latter, with his father, said TO
be an employe on the Greene Cana
nea cattle ranch in Mexico, VoIun-
tarily came to Douglas from Lords
burg, N. M, where he had been ar
rested and two horses and a mule
from the Packard ranch were re-
covered. Meanwhile the Mexican
alleged murderer, learning that Of
ficers were trailing him, is be-
lieved to have fled into Chihuahua,

EVERY YEAR is LEAP
YEAR IN ASSAM, SAYS
BAPTIST MISSIONARY

New York, Jan. 22.-Every year
is a 4 leap year among the Caro-
women in Assam, writes a mission
airy to the American Baptist For
eign Mission society.
Among those who have not been
Christanized the bride takes the
initiative in marriage" he says
"She goes to fetch the bridegroom.
and it is etiquette for him to hide
and resist until VIGOROUSLY carried
off. Occasionally, a man may get
his wife by capture, but usually Il
is the woman who kidnaps him;
that is to say. her male friends do
1t for her. One may still see such
press-gangs bringing home their
spoil.
an the early days, the mission
aries were inclined to rush to the
rescue, thinking that violence was
being committed such is the noise
made by the struggling youth. The
reluctance and resistance, though,
are seldom as real as they sound.
If the youth dislikes the match,
there is rarely any redress.
Women of means are allowed to
choose n temporary husband and
when tired of him, pay him off, and
take another.

DOMESTICS IN SPAIN
BANDING TOGETHER TO
SECURE HIGHER WAGES

Madrid Jan. 22.-Americans &C
customed to paying their ordinary
"hired girls $50 or more month
for general housework will be in
terested to learn that Spanish do
mestics are forming labor organ
iZation to enforce a demand for an
Increase that will bring their
wages up to the equivalent OF 80
or even $40 a month.
Cooks, parlor maids, Kitchen
maids, wet nurses and general help
have united in Il movement not
only for higher wages but an eight
hour day. This may look rldlcu-
lous in America but it is serious
business for the Spaniards. They
are accustomed to paying their
hired girls the equivalent normally
of about 50 q month and requiring
them to be on duty from early IN
the morning to late at night, or
even until l o'clock the following
morning.
The servant girls Of Spain usu-
ally are allowed a half day off
each month.
The eight-hour day proposal hits
the householder hardest. One
newspaper satirically asks: How
will baby get on if the wet nurse
declines to perform her duties Tor
more than eight hours day.!

A director, who has direct super

sent to the farm. Both men and
women are confined on the reser-

HUMAN WRECKS

GOOD CITIZENS
Farm Owned BY the City of
Dallas Is Being Used to
Reclaim Down and Cutters
of Both Sexes.
CBy The Associated PressN

Dallas, TEX, Jan. 22.-The re-
manufacture of broken stamina
and the building up of both physi-
cal and moral power in men and
women comprising all the types of
persons in the down-and- out cate
CORY is the nature of work being
accomplished daily at the munich
pal farm, owned and operated by
the city of Dallas, according to
Commissioned L. L. McGee, under
whose indirect supervision the
rescue work is carried on.
Started as an experiment, the
city farm institution has proven
such an effective aid to those in
| charge of all classes of rescue
work in Dallas, as well as to Off
Gals in the city and county law
enforcement departments, that it
has become perhaps the greatest
means for starting erring or un-
fortunate persons again on the road
to success and happiness. Commits
soner MCGEE declared.
Former VagahOnd Reclaimed.
The city commission told Of a
man who was recently sent to the
city farm to work out a fine i'm
posed by local authorities. This
man." Mr.. Niece said, was an
avowed communist, and had be-
come hardened to the belief that
; the world owed him a living, with
out display of his own energies and
! talents. He was never known to
even attempt to obtain employment,
| but went from house to house de-
manding food. He was nuisance
wherever he went. Finally appre-
hended for crime with which he
was charged by city police, he was
fined and sent to the municipal
| farm to work out the money. When
he arrived at the reservation, he
was still a vagabond, early proving
va problem to those in charge of aC-
| tiVitieS there.
Shortly after he arrived at the
citys man building plant. he be-
came the instigator of an attempt
ed delivery of prisoners at the in
stitution. More eXacting duties
were imposed on him, although
there was no attempt on the part
OF the farm authorities to harrass
the prisoner with any unkind treat

pied with the pleasant farm life
and took on increased vigor in the
open air, the troubles and sordid
life he had been wont to lead in
congested cities were soon forgot
ten. We were surprised to observe
in this former criminal, at the end
of a few weeks the qualities of a
regenerated man, and such he has
proven to be since his release. The
Iprisoner was released from the
city reservation as soon as his obi
cation to the municipality had beer
worked out. The authorities aideC
him in securing a position, and hi!
present employer reports that thu
former vagabond is working will
will and has new ideas of life"
Mr.. MCGEE said this was onl!
one instance out of many, whert
both men and women had beer
lifted from the depths in which
they had lost themselves. into
sphere of regeneration. through
1 aid of the city farm.
The farm is located on the slope
of White Rock lake, which serve
as a reservoir for the city waite
, supply. The lake and the farm
land surrounding it are the proper
ty of the city of Dallas. The lake en-
+ virons are conducive to healthfu
