the fire occurred. He declared he
had not hacked the body TO pieces,

MEXICO WILL HAVE
NEW RURAL SCHOOLS

-Four thousand new rural schools
will be established by the Mexican
government between now and January
10, according to telegraphic dispatches
received at the Mexican Consulate at
San Antonio from the City Of Mexico.
The new schools will be inaugurated
throughout the Mexican Republic, es-
pecially in those districts where the
Indian population is extensive, and
which are far away from centers of
culture, the dispatches said.
The main purpose of the educational
program OF the Mexican goernment is
to educate more than 10000 Indians,
''Tarahumaras" scattered in the
Sierras, who lead a semi-savage life.
This was the promise made to the
governor of the state of Chihuahua by
President Gales in his recent visit
to that state.
