evening at sunset an old man with X;
silver-white hair and a snowy heard ;X
j may he seen walking around the plaza X;
taking his dally exercise with his two :X
j bodyguards.
He Is General I.ills Terrazas, the ;X
octogenarian exile from Mexico, who X:
i lost virtually all his great fortune in g
| the revolution of Madero and Villa ' -X
j and now Is forced by political condi- : X:
| tions in the country to live on the :X
border. When the Madero revolution ::
started, in 1911. "Don Guis" was :X
known as the cattle king of Mexico. ;X
His herds numbered more than 200,-1 X;
umi head, and grazed on a thousand x:
hills and plains of Northern Mexico.
His estates stretched from the Rio :x
I Grand to Chihuahua City, and he X:
i could ride for twenty-four hours by I :X
train over his own acres, which then x:
' numbered more than a million.
From his offices in the state cap C:
ital General Terrazas governed this1 &
1 vast cattle empire, conducted a hank :X
and many other industries connected X:
with his cattle business. He and his
large family lived in luxury in the X;
marble palace on the Alamada or at 1
Quinta Carolina, his summer home on x:
the plains Irani alter train oi cai
tie arrived at the border from the 1 £
Terrazas ranches. His annual export £
i averaged 25.000 head, and the "T- j £
Itunnlng-S" brand was as well known j £
at the Chicago, Kansas City and Fort £
I Worth stockyards as It was in Me- £
1 ioo The Terrazas holdings were es £
j timated to lie worth $5,OlW),Onn igoldi.j-a:
hut were not for sale at any price. £
Now General Terrazas and his fam- £
\ ily live in a rented house nri Golden £
hill, he rides to his office in an old j £
automobile, and buys his groceries j £
from a cash-and-carry store j£
The revolutionists under Mitdero. £
Orozco and other leaders killed the £
Terrazas cattle for food, burned his j £
ranch buildings and looted hi stores £
and warehouses. Then Francisco Villa, £
acting as commander in the N rth for; £
C.eneral Carranza. Issued a decree con- £
fiscating all of the Terrazas holdings, ! £
Including the herds, lands and per j £,
| senai property. General Terfa^as"V-as!
: forced to tlee from Mexico before i _
Villa's advance on Chihuahua City
1 from Juarez. He made the long trek
to the border at Ojlnaga with the free
ing federal column and has never re
turned to Mexico.
On July 22 Iasi General Terrazas
celebrated his S'.uli birfhdav anniver
sary, surrounded by his ten sons. 7-.
, grandchildren and many more rela
lives. He maintains an office down
town, where he attends to his pri
vate business affairs daffy and keeps
ill close touch with cattle and market
conditions.
It is his dream to he permitted to ; _
return to his native land with suffi-j “
dent guarantees to allow him to be
gin over again to re-establish the Ter-1

CHINESE MUSI ABANDON
THEIH ATTRACTIVE LIVERY
!
PKKIN'G. Aug. 24 Some of fhi I**-:
gallons in Peking have been re
quested by the Chinese foreign oft-re
to atiandon the custom of using the
eld Manchu hat as a feature of gerv- j
ants' livery. It is usual throughout i
the foreign colony in Peking to see j
all the servants who wait upon guests,
decked out in the silken robes of a \
Chinese gentleman and wearing the
Manchu hat, which is shaped like the
rain-shields one sees on top of smoke
stacks, with a bushy red silk or horse ]
hair tassel banging from the apex.
it was the recognized livery of the
Manchus. and in the opinion of the
foreign office officials should have
passed out with the Manchu house.
It is a very effective livery, and for
eigners dislike to abandon it.

He was captured in the full of 1915 j
and since then has bitterly regretted
the fart that he had not previously !
acquired a stripe or two—the only j
ticket which admits to the briny.

| Why be satisfied with the wear you |
get from ordinary boots
when you get so much more from “Hi-Press?”
This is no idle claim, hut a fact proven by miners,
farmers and construction workers from Alaska to
Mexico. “Hi-Press” is made by a new and better
method—thegreatest advance in footwear in fifty years.
We use the toughest rubber ever evolved—actually the
same kind that goes into Goodrich Auto Tires. 1 here
seems to be no wear-out to it.^And t^e b^iot isnudded
