GENERAL VILLA
SHOT TO DEATH
[Continued From First Page ]
feared to cross the international
bridge. A crowd of persons gathered
at the river late last night, but little
information filtered through.
By Asjoctatrd Press
El Paso. Oct. 16. The death of
'General Rodolfo Fierro, reported last
*« ht from Casas Grandes, Mexico, re
tnoves from the Villa campaign one
of It* most notable leaders.
Fierro sprang into prominence a!
the time of the death of William Ben
ton. a British subject at Juarez, two
years ago. Benton's death which has
never been satisfactorily explained,
has been laid to Fierro, then Villa's
body guard.
During one of Villa's critical bat
tles Fierro in the face of a deadly fire
uncoupled a troop train, preventing
the arrival of Huerta reinforcements
This deed of valor is said to have won
him his generalship. i
Later Fierro became notorious is
an executioner. One of his exploits,
as reported from the battlefield, was
the shooting of more than three hun
dred prisoners taken in battle. He is
reported to have killed the men us
they .stood in a row ond as rapidly as
his aid could feed his gun.
The report that Fierro met his
death by drowning is discredited here.
In well-informed circles, it was hinted
that Fierro was the victim of a con
spiracy.
General P. Ellas Calles. Carranza
commander at Agua Prleta said to
day he had been notified that General
Villa was enroute from Casas Grandes
to Sonora. He believes his informa
tion is correct.
Carranza Government
to Be Recognized Soon
By Associated Press
Washington. D. C., Oct. 16.—Rec
ognition of the Carranza government
in Mexico probably will be extended
next week. The Pan-American Peace
Conference will meet then to arrange
the form which recognition shall take.
Secretary Lansing will call the con
ference together following the receipt
of formal assurances from the govern
ments of Brazil and Chile that they
rre in accord with the decision to rec
ognize Carranza. Such assurances
bave been given by other Latin-Ameri
can nations. It is expected that all of
them will

Four-Cylinder Cars Are
Popular Throughout West
"Four-cylinder cars are by far the
most popular in the West and South
west.' writes Lee Anderson, sales and
advertising manager of the Hupp Motor
Car Company, who is just completing
n month's business trip throughout the
western territory
"In every section which I visited the
four-cvlinder car was the most popu
lar. The auto owner Is demanding
ample power on account of the heavy
grades and are strong for good 'fours.'
The model N' Hupmobile is constantly
showing up the most complex tvpes in
hill work and everywhere the Hup
mobile is counted one of the best of
American cars.
■ IXhe whole West as well as the
SHBWiwejt is suffering this ear from
t shortage of oars On account of the
general prosperitv the demand is far
ahead of expectations and this coupled
with the production shortage is dis
tressing the dealers in standard lines."

'CASCARETS'' FOR
YOUR BOWELS IF
HEADACHY, SICK
For biliousness, bad breath,
colds, indigestion and
constipation.
Enjoy life! Liven your liver
and bowels to-night
and feel fine.
Tour tongue is coated: Look inside
your watch cover and see! That's bad
business. What have you been eating?
What were you drinking? What kind
of a lazy chair did you take exercise
in? Now don't think it doesn't mat
ter. because, it's your bowels that talk
now every time you open your mouth.
That doesn't help wour popularity, nor
your earning capacity. Besides, a per
son with bad bowels is in a had way
and a coated tongue or a bad breath
are sure .signs of bad bowels and poor
digestion.
Why don't you get a 10-cent box of
Cascarets at any drug store and give
your liver and thirty feet of bowels the
nicest, gentlest cleansing they ever ex
perienced. Take one or two Cascarets
to-night and wake up feeling line and
fit. All Headache. Dullness. Bilious
ness, Bad Breath, Stomach Sourness.
Told and Constipation gone—wake up
with your head clear, tongue clean,
(toniach sweet, liver and bowels ac
tive. step elastic and complexion rosy.
Cascarets work while you .sleep—
never gripe or sicken. Cascarets act
so gently that you hardly realize you
have taken a thorough cathartic.
They don't bother you all next day like
«alts. pills, oil or calomel, —Cascarets
being perfectly harmless Is best chil
dren's laxative.—Advertisement.

Great Auk, Dodo and
Passenger Pigeon Extinct
Within modern times there are three;
especially interesting instances of the
complete extinction of a bird species.
They are those of the Dodo, the Great
Auk and the Passenger Pigeon. Nel- ■
son R. Wood, the taxidermist of tlie I
Smithsonian Institution in Washington,!
has mounted two of the birds that have I
become extinct—the Great Auk and the I
Passenger Pigeon.
The passenger piegons. which form
erly were numbered by the millions in
tile Fnited States, have totally disap
peared. the last one, which was for]
many years in the Cincinnati Zoological j
Gardens, itavlng died last year. Its;
skin was mounted by Mr. Wood and >
will be kept in the Smithsonian Insti-1
tution, along with the Great Auk. The I
Great Auk was once very abundant on!
both <liores of the North Atlantic, andj
a century ago was numbered by the I
hundreds of thousands. .
No live speciment has been seen or I
heard of since 1844. when two were ob
tained in Iceland. The bird had very
short wings, was capable of but little
flight, and therefore fell an easy prey
to the wanton destructiveness of ad
vancing settlement.
Hut few specimens are now preserv
ed in public museums. There are only
three in the United States: one of these
is at Vassar College, another is at the
Academy of Natural Science in Phila
delphia. and the other Is the one own
ed by the Smlthonian, whicn is in the
National Museum in Washington. A

UNCLE SAM PERMITS MOTORCYCLES
Postmaster General Burleson's order authorizing the use of motorcycles on
R. F. D. routes is received with satisfaction by millions of people in the United
States who have become accustomed to receiving their newspapers and other
mail matter jui schedule. Last July the Postal Department was inclined to
believe that the motorcycle did not permit expansion of the parcel post. Mr.
Burleson assumed personal charge of the investigation and the reports made
by post offices throughout the country showed that the motorcycle and sidevan
is meeting the need of the department satisfactorily.
In the suburban districts of the large cities as well as in the rural dis
tricts the'* regular mail established with the aid of automobiles and motorcycles
has accomplished wonders in the daily life of nil who are enjoying the R. F. D.
service. To have that service curtailed in any way would affect not only the
people on the rural routes but all with whom they have social or business'
relations.
The usefulness of Uncle Sam's rural routes has been Increased greatly by
the parcel post, benefitting not only the patrons on the routes in receiving
shipments from the cities but city residents who receive farm produce by parcel
post. Consequently the decision of the Postmaster General approving motor
deliveries and collections on the It. F. D. routes is meeting with approval In
tie cities as well as in the country, the subject being a.matter of nation-wide
interest. The abo\e shows one of the Harley-Davidson s with delivery van

j hearing this morning before Alderman

nesses.
Attorney W. J. Carter who repre
j sented the four defendants and Dis
trict Attorney Stroup had a few words
j during the hearing as to whether or
| not the quartet should be held. Mr.
.Carter raised the question of the suffi
ciency of the evidence to warrant
! holding the men. He said that the
i question of a recount for other offices
J had been questioned and that even for
| the vote on the district attorneyship
! when Mr. Stroup and Paul A. Kunkel.
I his present opponent had contested for
the office, three years ago, the ballots
• had been recounted. At that time
there was no breath of suspicion as
' to fraud he saio.
Flection Fraud Prosecutions Rare
Both Alderman and Mr.
Stroup pointed out that the recount
made at that time differed in that the
| question at issue was as to the kind
' and not the number of ballots cast.
"This is the first time," pointedly
• declared Mr. Stroup, "that a district
attorney has prosecuted an aleged
; election fraud in this county."
"No." laughed Mr. Carter. "I've
never keard of its happening—espe
t cially before election."
Up until a late hour to-day the po
