General Villa Delights to Kill Men Who Are Helpless Before Him. General Villa, the successful leader of the revolutionist forces in Mexico, is a murderer and thief, according to a wealthy mine ownei who has just, returned from that troublous country. "Villa," said he, "is half devil and half cur. He is the most unspeakable unspeakable wretch that ever straddled straddled a. horse, but he doesn't expose .himself to danger if he can keep out of it. I suppose he lias killed as many men with his own hands as any other, man in Mexico. I doubt if half a dozen were given the chance to shoot back." He told of one occasion in the early days of, the. present insurrection insurrection in Mexico when Villa captured twenty men of a band that had been badgering him. He condemned them to death In hia usual way, never never bothering with court-martials or other flub-dubbery. Then he designated himeelf as the executioner executioner of hia own decree. He had the men bound, hands behind backs, - but with eyea unbandaged. "This will séem. impossible to you,"' said the mine owner, "but Villa walked down that line of men, revolver in hand. 'From time to time he shot 'a man through the heart, and stood by him until the victim had kicked his last kick. He taunted the bound men. Prolonged Torture. "I want you to enjoy this, as I do," he told them. "Those who gave way to terror he put aside, to ie shot last of all. In that way they savored to the last twinge the full agony of their position: Some of ;hem he half "encouraged to believe hat he might spare t-hem. Then he killed them, fairly licking his lips as he did so." There was another story, of v ilia's garroting half a dozen men one day. For some reason he did not want to shoot. He slipped a short loop over the. head of each jnan, thrust a stick through it, and twisted. As the victim gasped for breath he let up on the pressure, so that-the death agonies might be as sweetly prolonged as possible. time a- price was on his head, fee knowts thé desert and mountain country better than you do the lines in your hand, and he has a certain quality of loyalty not common common among Mexican leaders. His men knew that if they were^ captured captured by the police or soldiers Villa would rescue them if he could. If he could not he would have revenge revenge for them. His revenges were so bloody and cruel that towards .the last 'he was little interfered with by the regular forces. One of Madero's mistakes was in recognizing recognizing this man. And yet he remained true to Madero as better men did not. He is a fairly good general, and has not imposed too onerous restrictions upon his men, who are for the most- part mere land pirates. It is not likely that Chihuahua Chihuahua or any other large town will be looted by him, because of the effect upon his standing with the United States. But later you will hear that he has carried fire and sword to the lonely country- aide . Every ma-n who had money before the war began • has been made to give it up--if Villa found him." the Privilege of Marrying Whom She Pleases. Although woman in Africa is regarded regarded as property she has certain rights which are seldom infringed upon, and of these the most important important is her right to ma.rry whom she pleases, or rather to refuse to marry one who does not please her. There are two reasons for this. First, women-married against their wills have been known to commit- suicide. Second, women married against their wills have murdered their unloved husbands, usually strangling them when asleep. So, in forcing one's self upon one of these women there is liability to a great loss--the loss of valuable property property or of no less highly prized life. The young girls are well cared for, partly that they may be comely and draw many suitors. Every girl will tell you frankly that she wishes to marry and have a good husband and children. Every father is anxious anxious to have his daughters marry well." To obtain a wife one must- pay a dowry in cattle to the father, oi\ should the father be dead, to the nearest male relative. If a girl is much sought after, her father naturally asks a larger dowry. When the man has paid part of the dowry the father may give consent to a provisional marriage and permit permit the couple to live together. Should the husband be too slow in paying the remainder of the dowry the wife is taken from him. Trial marriages are common and can be set- aside by either party: Their principal objects in marriage are mutual helpfulness and the perpetuation perpetuation of the race."
