WITHDRAWAL OF
’ TROOPS CAUSES
MUCH TROUBLE
LAREDO, Texas, July 17 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Withdrawal of troops
from bandit-infested regions in central
and southern Mexico to campaign
against Villa in the North has led to
way destruction in that republic, ac
cording to stories printed by Mexico
City papers received in this city.
The most striking feat of the rebels
was the capture of a train from Mex
ico City to Puebla at a point only a
feiv miles from the latter city, by the
forces of the former rebel general.
Cirilo Arenas, who revolted about a
year ago. One hundred of the several
hundred passengers were seized as
hostages, among them an American,
Charles Chapman. They were driven
for hours on foot over rocky trails to
the headquarters of the rebel chief
\ tain. Later they were released with
' out being held for ransom, and made
their way safely to Puebla. The ban
dits’ loot is estimated at 100,000 pesos.
This followed closely on the heels
of the capture of six well-known resi
dents of Mexico City at a picnic resort
known as the Desert of the Lions, not
more than a dozen miles from the cap
ital. The captors, former followers of
Zapata, sent the women of the party
back to Mexico City for a ransom of
2,400 pesos, and released their captives
when the money was delivered.
More than one hundred followers of
Pedro Gabay are reported to have been
killed when federal forces recaptured
the tow’ll of Chocoman, state of Vera
Cruz.
The Excelsior tells of the murder by
bandits of the millionaire, Enrique
Langenschein. son of the German con
sul at Guanajuato. Langenschein met
death at the hands of rebels fleeing
from Michoacan into Jalisco, w’ho
caught him on his ranch near Lake
Chapala.
‘ AVIATOR GIVES ALARM
AND SAVES BUILDINGS
FROM FOREST FIRES
ONTARIO, Cal., July 17 (by Asso
ciated Press).—An army aviator who
discovered a big brush fire as he was
flying over the ranch of J. C. Smyth,
near here, recently, turned his plane
back to the city and by signals in
formed the Ontario fire department of
the blaze. Mr. Smyth, whose home
was in danger, had tried to summon
the fire department several times by
telephone, but owing to a strike of op
erators he was unable to do so. A
chemical engine responded to the avi
ator’s appeal, and the ranch house and
other buildings were saved.
GREAT SCARCITY OF
CIGARETTES IN BERLIN
BERLIN, June 15 (by mail).—The
illicit trade in cigarettes has grown
to such proportions in Berlin that the
authorities are considering a campaign
against profiteers who sell them for
double and treble their value. Cigar
ettes now have become so scarce that
one of ordinary quality readily com
mands 15 cents, and while the price
is plainly marked on each cigarette,
they are daily sold in the streets by
peddlers for much higher prices.

FINDS MEAL IN JAIL CELL
Meandering Willie Is Surprised at
Sheriff's Generosity, but He
Cleans Up.
Jackson, Mich.—If you were a
“Wandering Willie,” how would you
like to be arrested and locked up in
the county jail, and when you en
tered your cell find a nice baked chick
en, oysters, cranberries and other deli
cacies awaiting you?
That is the feast that greeted a
weary hobo in the Jackson county jail,
and, surprised at the generosity of the
Jackson county sheriff—but hungry—
he turned to and cleaned up on the
bones ere the rightful occupant of the
cell returned—and thereby hangs the
tale.
The owner of the “feed,” Earl Keith,
colored, is in durance vile on the charge
of holding up the cashier of the Mich
igan Iron & Metal company in broad
daylight and getting away with $105.
Just as he was taken from his cell to
stand Investigation his faithful wife
appeared with the feast above enumer
ated, and. not knowing how long he
would be absent, she left the basket
in the empty cell and went away.
Apprised of the bounteous repast
awaiting him, the negro sped back to
his cell—and found tie “vug” calmly
rolling an after-dinner cigaret. Worst
of all. complains Keith, the fellow took
him for a waiter and ordered him to re
move the dishes and bring him a tooth
pick.
