- SIX 1 ROSEBL'RG NEWS REVIEW. TUESDAY! OCTOBER 18, 1927. Firing Squad Pictures From Mexico GENERAL QUIJANO'S FAREWELLAND DEATH! yk&frje.---ipr : : - The bleak passing of a Mexican general who participated in the Gomez-Serrano revolt is shown In these extraordinary photographs. The victim was General Alfredo Rueda Quijano, commander of a cavalry regiment of the v1exico City garrison. . In the close-up picture at the left, Quliano is Wavlna aoodbve to American newsnaner correspondents he reeoanlzed In the crowd which witnessed his execution. Thns nhnti , i ' , was taken only a moment before j ., tary prison In Mexico City, the firing squad with rifles leveled, and the - later quijano crumpled to the ground. Only Picture Ever Taken of Here Is one of the most unusual pictures ever snapped by a newspaper photographer. When Rueda Quijano, Mexican general, faced a firing squad near Mexico City for revolutionary activity against the Calles government, the first volley failed to kill. The picture shows a soldier from the squad administering the ooup de grace, by firing a bullet through QuIJano's heart. As far as known, this Is the only picture of such an incident ever taken, .... t( Ki -if Valiantly .stoically, without visible emotion, General Rueda Quijano heard the sentence that was to , bring his death. The rebel Mexican leads Is shown above, hands In pockets as he faces the Judges at his court-martial in Mexico City. The fatal words have Just been spoken.

Stadlp-r. ninnlrliml JuiIko In Port land, has authority to ait as a jus tice of peace-, according to an opin ion of Ihe supreme court todav in the application of Fred I., lioalt for a writ of habeas corpus. The opinion reverses four circuit juilKe! who heard the case. Judges Walter H. Evans, Hobert Tucker. Louis P. Hewitt nnd Cleorco F. Skipworth. To test the question Iloalt con- rived to get himself arrested for having; defective license plates on his automobile. The municipal Jtldire sentenced him to pay a fine of $10 or no to Jail for five days. Ho refused to pay Ihe fine and was remanded to the custody of Chief of Police Jenkins. Ills ar- gument was that Inasmuch as the municipal judge Is appointed by the city council, and nut elected for six years as are justices of the peace he is without authority to act as a justfee of the peace. The reversing opinion today was writ ten by Justice Bean. Other opinions today were: A. G.
