DEAD ARE BURNED IN
' CHIHUAHUA STREETS
, City Illuminated by "Human
Torches" Following Its Cap
ture by Villa's Forces.
WOUNDED FILL HOSPITALS
' . Juarez, Mexico, Dec. I. Ancient
Juarez was in the back wash of bat
tle today. Tonig'it the campfires
of another remnant army burn on the
plains to the south. Grim cannon are
parked in the customs house yard
with garlands of "jerked beef hang
ing from'thcir muzzles.
In box cars women camp follow-
ers of the Carranza soldiers cooked
their meagre meals tonight over char
coal braziers, while barefooted chil
dren many born on battle fields-
shivered from the cold as they
hovered in the lee of the big guns. .
Wounded Fill Hospitals.
Since early morning this old bor
der town has been the scene of mili
tary actitivities. Soon after 7 today
thj first troop train brought the rag
ced survivors of the de facto force,
which had fought at Chihuahua City
against Villa, and had escaped to the
north. Accompanying this train was
a sanitary section consisting of three
second class coaches ana one wmte
cross" hospital car. In these cars
came more than 100 wounded sol
diers of the Carranza command, who
were rescued from the heaps of dying
and brought to the border by their
comrades. The hospitals are filled
with wounded, and volunteer nurses
are working to care for the officers
and men who fell before the rain of
bandit bullets. ,
The troop train which brought
this surviving force to the border, left
Chihuahua City, at 10:30 Monday
morning, proceeding to a point near
Terrazas station were a burned bridge
-forced them to transfer to another
train Wednesday.
The officers of the Carranza com
mand, which for some reason was sent
here, and foreign refugees who came
on ai. earlier train gavo accounts of
the four days and nights of fighting
which preceded the evacuation of the
capital city, which are practically the
same and which 'pieced together
give a fairly connected account of the
siege of Chihuahua City.
Burn Bodies In Streets.
' According to these officers and refu
gees, tie dead had been piled in the
streets and oil poured over them, and
the early dawn was illuminated by
these human torches. Between the
cemetery and Santa Rosa hill the
dead covered the streets, many having
died days before. Along the streets
pear the railroad station, and sur
rounding the station one refugee said
he saw many cavalry horses with car
bines and sabres attached to the sad
dles, the Carranza cavalrymen having
abandoned them in order to leave the
city on the troop train. Along Zarco
avenue, according to the refugees, the
fighting had been fiercest, and many
civilians had been killed there and
in other parts of the city by shell fire
and rifle balls. The houses lining this
street' were pitted with the bullet
marks of the battle, a Syrian refugee
said, and many shell holes were to
be seen in the houses in the heart of
the city.
De Facto War at First.
A.I of the refusees aerced that Car-
ranza's troops were winning during
the first four days of the fighting, but
either because of a shortage of ammu
nition or tack ot morale, they aban
doned the city early on the fifth
morning of the battle, seeking safety
in flight in all directions. The taking
of Santa Rosa hill, wnich has always
been known as the "Key to Chihua
hua," was said by one foreign refugee
to have started the retirement of the
Carranza torces. which, thev aav. re
sembled a rout before the last train

Prefers Death to
Service Upon Border
Joplin, Mo., Dec. 1. After de
claring to friends that he pre
ferred death to further service on
the border, Earl F. Raymond, mess
sergeant of Company C, second
Missouri infantry, committed sui
cide today by drinking poison. He
was granted a month's furlough
Oct. 26, when stationed at Laredo,
Tex., and sent several telegrams
to his regiment commander, seek
ing an extension of his furlough.
He is said to have received no re
ply. Raymond enlisted in Joplin
when the troops were called out
last June.

CIVIC BODY IN THE LEAD
left The cavalry, artillery and infant
try poured down the streets leading
to the station, which is north of the
city proper, they said, and climbed
aboard the train in a wild scramble
to get away.
One civilian refugee claimed Gen
eral Gonzales Cuellar
ble for the taking of Santa Rosa hill,
where he was in command, as he al
lowed the infantry lines to be weak
ened. When the artillery was turned
on the city, this refugee says, the
moral effect was almost immediately
noticeable and the Carranza soldiers,
who had been eager for battle Sunday
night, dropped their rifles and fled
One refugee claimed to have seen
officers leave their men fighting to

dared today he had seen Francisco
Villa in the city Monday morning be-
iore me iram icit. ne said Villa was
walking without the aid of crutches,
as if to inspire his men with his nr.
' titude. His mustache was shaved off
ana ne looitea much thinner than of
old.
1 To obtain medicine for his wound,
Villa is said by this refugee to have
broken into two drug stores in the
city after he had penetrated the busi
ness section. Thinking this action
meant the beginning of looting, Villa
bandits broke into stores and private
homes, the refugee said. Villa, to stop
this looting, is said to have shot two
of his followers and succeeded in
topping the pillaging.
George Brittingham, an American,
was seen at the station in Chihuahua
City, one foreign refuge said, but he
did not get away on the last train. AH
of the refugees agree that there had
been no killing of foreigners up to the
time they left, although there were
rumors that several Chinese had been
killed.
Villa followers are said to have
captured five field pieces on Santa
Rosa hill, shouting "Viva Villa" and
linging as they charged.

of Turkey Gobbler.
BUT ALL ARE GENTLEMEN
The banquet hall of the Rome hotel
echoed and reverberated with iha
thunderous cheers of 350 newsbovs
inursday. They were there to cat
their annual Thanksgiving dinner,
They had their appetites and their
voices with them, and they used both
to splendid advantage.

boisterous crowd. Not a bit of it.
Mogy" Bernstein, formerly emperor
ot the newsboys and now a prosperous
business man, was master of ceremonies.
He it was who led rh
from Sixteenth street to the door of
the banqoet hall. He it wan uihn

When they were all seated. Moirv'a
voice rang out: "Boys, boys, Rome
Miller, who owns this hotel, was nnrc
a newsboy, and it is largely through
him that this dinner is given. Three
cheers for Rome Miller." And they
were given in a manner that made the
chandeliers tremble.
When I 'was a newsboy I never
thought that I would Oct tn riivn .a
big hotel, boys," said Rome. "You
boys have jobs now. But some day
you won't be newsboys, and you'll
have situations, positions. Do you
know what I mean?" (Cries of "yes,"
"sure.") "And when you get into
something that is to be your life work
try to be the biggest men in that
business. I thank you."
Mr. Miller retired with his het aft.

A big "drive" on the city council
and the street railway and other pub
he service corporations is now ir
planning by different improvement
clubs of the city. The Civic associa
tion is taking the lead and will soon
begin a concentrated campaign for
Improvements.
The boulevard system as planned
by the city engineer from Riverview
to bpringlake and Mandan park will
ne me nrst on the "drive - schedule.
The city council already has the prop
osition in mind, and it Is most likely
that an appropriation for the purpose
will be passed before spring. Thir
teenth street,, south, to Fort Crook,
is a government highway, and con
gress has already voted a large sum
for the pavinsr of this road. The nrin.
cipal complaint of property owners in
this district is that there is no street
car service. The street railway com
pany, at the request of several hun
dred taxpayers who petitioned grant
ed plans for the building of a street
car line, south, within two hlnrks r(
Thirteenth street at Y. The city
councij it is requested, must grant a
franchise, which up to the present
time has been refused.
Freight Track Wanted.
A branch freight track from the
Missouri Pacific railroad yards to the
base of Twenty-fifth street in the al
ley at N street is another obpective
The Civic association also will urge
the building of. two new Burlington
depots, one at Thirty-ninth and L

Missouri avenue. This arrangement
will aid visitors to central portions
of the city.
West Side boosters want a street

Engineer Dead, But
His Train Runs On
Phillipsburg, N. J., Dec. 1
While its engineer lay dead beside
the tracks near Black Tom Island,
a milk train on the Lehigh Valley
railroad, early today ran., thirty
miles beyond that point before the
fireman, Allen Miller, discovered
Shaffer was mining.
Miller's attention first was at
tracted, he said, when the train
passed an important crossing with
out heeding a signal warning.
Seeing that Shaffer was not at
his post, Miller brought the train
to a halt.
Shaffer apparently had climbed
out on the running board of his
engine and had fallen off, sustain
ing fatal injuries.

Poisoned by Thousands
(By L. H. Smith, M. D.) '
The victims of auto-intoxication are
many thousand every day. By reason
of the toxins, or poisons, bred in the
intestines, these poisonous bacteria
are sent all thru the blood channels
and the, victim feels tired, sleepy and
headachy, or the brain doesn't work
as usual. The best treatment for this
is to drink hot water before- break
fastplenty of water all day and pro
cure a supply of Dr, Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets, made of Mayapple, leaves of
aloes, etc., with 410 calomel, entirely
vegetable, which can be obtained at
drug stores for 25 cents.
Equally important is it to pleanse
kidneys and bladder, and rlrlnkino-
plentifully of pure water will cleanse
them to a certain extent. Then ob
tain at a drug store a little Anuric,
which was first discovereTiy Dr.
Pierce of Sureical Institute in Rnf.
falo. Anuric should be taken before
meals. It is many times more potent
uian iitnia in mrowing ott tile poison
ous accumulations of uric acid.
Dr. Weir Mitchell once said": "What
we call diseases are only symptoms of
cunuiuons. Aiiow tne man s vitality
to be reduced to a certain point, and
he is ripe for any of these weak
nesses, or certain conditions which we
call disease."
Through failure of ltirln eva tn art
through congestion, inflammation, any
person's condition is ripe for disease
to fasten its hold upon the system.
Anuric has been tested for the past
few years for kidney, hladder. nrir
acid troubles, rheumatism, gout, and
such ailments as follow, and so many
cases, both acute and stubborn, have
yielded to this wonderful remedy that
I do not hesitate to recommend it.
