 Firing Squad.

Houston, Texas, Nov 20.--The last of the famous Villa family, notor- ious Mexican bandits, has met death before q federal firing squad, ac- cording to reports here.

Villa agreed 10 lay down his arms if given the Hacienda Canupillo," where Pancho Villa set up a model ranch for his followers after making peace with Obregon. Gomez assented.

 The Hudson river connecting rail. road links the tracks of the New York Central. Boston and Albany and West Shore railroad. By its use it will be possible 10 swing west bound freight across the Hudson river over the Castleton bridge, 1855 feet above the water and nearly mile in length, Freight then will go into the Selkirk classification yards and thence west through South Schenectady, obviating the necessity of passing through the yards at AL bany long "bottIe-neck" and auSe of delay in handling freight. The connecting road consists of 47.4 miles of tracks. The yards contain a trackage with a capacity Of lo,- 76O cars and evtend more than six miles west from the Hudson river.
 The project represents the frui- tition of 12 years of planning.

CALVIN COOLIDGE

Some few criticize President Cool
idge for his veto of the Veterans Pen
sion increase bill and also Of the Sol
dier Bonus.
Now, the fact is, that whatever obli-
cations are assumed by our govern
ment, the taxpayer is the one who
foots the bill. No one would want to
withhold from any deserving soldier
whatever he needed in the way Of com
forts, but one must not forget that an
obligation of this kind would only be
taking the money from one pocket and
putting it into another. 1t looks fine
on the outside, but that is the real
truth in a NUTSHELL.
When one attacks the record of such
a man as Calvin Coolidge, whose fair.
ness, uprightness and simplicity are
unquestioned by any thinking person
regardless of political belief, one has
to get down TO splitting hairs in or
der to raise an issue against him.

DENVER'S ELECTION.

In one of the most bitter fights of
Denver politics Ben F. Stapleton,
mayor of Denver, was reelected Tues
day by majority of over $4,000 over
Dewey C. Bailey, who was the only
real rival, tho two other men were in
the race. Over 10000 votes were poll
ed during the day, the previous record
vote being $4,000.
With this overwhelming victory for
Stapleton, the Denver Post is again
defeated for they have been actively
denouncing Stapleton and even have
refused to mention his name save in
connection with disparagement. Staple
ton was supported by the Ku Klux
Klan and the fight attracted statewide
attention as this was the first contest
between Klan and anti-Klan forces in
the state. Judging from the results,
politicians have met organized opposi-
tion in the Klan, which may prove to
be a large factor in the coming cleo
tion.

WOMEN AND THE BARBER SHOP

Now that the women patronaize the
barber shops as much as the men, it
looks as if the loafers who used to
make the barber shop a rendezvous
where they could release their latest
supply of questionable stories, would
have to seek other quarters, or cease
telling such stories at all.
Time was within the memory of
even the younger generation, when a
lady passed a barber shop with the
same feeling as she did a saloon, and
later when she was compelled to take
Johnny to the barber for hair cut,
she shrank back into the corner and
fervently prayed that none of her
friends would spy her through the win
dow. -
That day is past and now my lady
enters the barber shop with the same
freedom as hubby waits her turn if
necessary and receives the same cour-
tesy and protection as if she were in a
cafe. And instead of the Police Ga
zette" or "Saucy Stories" or "True
Confessions" or "Whiz Bang" she

SHoElNG BULLS

There are several things new under

thoroughbred bulls on breeders

their hoOfs against wearing off in
climbing the hills which form part of
large hacienda. If not shod, the
bulls are inclined to favor their feet
by remaining on soft ground in prox-
unity to the watering places. Once
shod they are expected to roam far
afield and gradually acquire hardness
that will tougher their muscles and
their feet alike. Unshod, these newly
arrived bulls from the east are what
might be called tenderfeet.
