absolute dictator over more than half

few hours distant this was the rise
and fall of FYancisco Villa, illiterate

quired brother-in-law to sign his own
death certirtcate, dig his owa grave
ni lie beside it. Villa shot the bride
croom and rolled him into the grave.
President Diaz, hearing of his officer-
death, set a price on Villa's head.
Villa escaped to the mountains and
became a bandit. His real name had
l.een Doreteo Orango, but as a bandit
he became known as Francisco and
"Pancho" Villa. He gathered together
a number of desperate men of the
Northern mountain country, and' with
in a few months his name was the
terror of the region.
According to the more generous esti
mates of Villa's life, his outlawry was
rather in the form of guerrilla war
fare than actual brigandage, for the
purpose of satisfying his revenge on
the dictator. Dial.
At the outbreak of the Madero re

Villa became dictator of the north

the nation, and became a Presidential

of military chiefs for the selection of
a President. Thia was accepted by
t'arranza. who later ordered the con

JLosses Are Reported by Sheep
Owners Near Sutlierlin.
HTHERUX, Or.. Jan. 10. (Special.)
Unless the weather moderates within
the next few days stockmen near Suth
erlin will suffer heavy losses of cattle
ond sheep. The heaviest snowfall in
years has covered the mountains and
lower hills. Grass Is scarce.
Three of the largest ranchers, own
ing more than 2000- sheep each, are
losing from 1 to 40 head each day the
frcenng weather lasts. Deer are being
driven by the deep snow in the moun
tains to take refuge in the lower and
settled country. Bands of from three
to irvrn have been seen near Suth-
. rlin.
Canyon City Slall Run Is Resumed.
CANTON CITY. Or.. Jan. 10. (Spe
cial.) The auto truck which carried
the mail last Summer between this city
and Prairie City has been making its
dally trips again this week on schedule.
For a couple of months it has been idle
on account of bad roads, but the six
inches of snow which fell last week
lias packed down and the roads are In
excellent condition.
Portland's Jitney ordinance now Is
enforceable. The mandate of the Su
preme Court in which the Jitney ordi
nance was held valid was filed in the
Circuit Court yesterday and the Judg
ment of the upper court was made the
Judgment of the lower court. City At
torney LaRoche then sent a letter to
Commissioner Daly notifying him that
the provisions of the ordinance now
are enforceable.
Enforcement will be started at once.
The police will be instructed by Mayor
Albee to notify the Jitney anvers 10
report at the City Hall at once for
their licenses and permits to operate.
Jitney Inspector Gill, who has an
koffice at the City Hall, will conduct the
inspection of machines and the ex
amination of drivers as fast as he is
able.
Opportunity to Comply Given.
Mayor Albee said last night that he
will instruct the police bureau to be
reasonable with the drivers.. No ar
rests will bo made until all drivers
have had an opportunity to get their
examinations and have permits issued.
Inasmuch as the inspection of each car
and the examination of each driver
takes considerable time, it is said to
be impossible to put all the Jitneys
through the test in less than possibly
two or three weeks.
It is probable a time will be set
when all drivers must have permits.
This will be set later, when it is seen
how rapidly the machines and drivers
can be put through the tests.
As to the safety features of the ordi
nance, these will be put into effect at
once. The machines will be prohibited
from overloading and will have to have
interior lights and other safeguards.
Sealing Capacity Limit Kept.
The Jitney, under the provisions of
the ordinance, may not carry more
than the registered seating capacity.
No more than one passenger may ride
in the seat with the driver, and no
passengers are permitted to ride on the
running-board or steps. A five-passenger
car may carry five passengers,
including the driver, according to the
terms of the ordinance.
Stops to take on or let off passen
gers may be made only on the near side
of street intersections. This is a safe
ty provision, the near side being the
opposite to that on which the street
cars stop. Commissioner Daly has pre
sented proposed amendments to this
part of the ordinance, but they have
not been adopted by the Council as
yet.
So far 96 Jitney drivers have ap
peared before the Jitney inspector fo'
permits. Of this number 40 of the
machines have been found safe and the
drivers capable. The others have been
rejected for various reasons. They will
be re-examined as soon as certain de
fects are corrected.

Portland Engineers and City Officials
Believe Junction With Boll Run
Line Woald Be Benefit.
OREGON CITT. Or, Jan. 20. (Spe
cial.) If Oregon City and West Linn,
acting jointly, build the proposed water
main to Mllwaukie, Gladstone will ap
ply for a connection, and . the present
pumping- plant on the banks of the
Clackamas River will be abandoned.
This was the assertion of an official
of Gladstone today. Some dissatisfac
tion has been expressed in Gladstone
this Winter concerning the present
water supply.
The Oregon City Water Board, which
has been carefully studying the pro
posal of building a line to Milwaukie,
which would be connected with the
Bull Run mains there and give Oregon
City and West Linn a reserve supply
in case of a breakdown on the South
Fork line, already has received a num
ber of ' applications. Meldrum, Oak
Grove, Lakewood. Jennings Lodge and
other towns could be supplied by the
main.
Harold ' A. Rands, the engineer in
charge of the South Fork project and
chairman of the Oregon City Water
Board, has discussed the matter with
engineers in the Portland water de
partment, and they confirm Mr. Rands'
declaration that the project is prac
tical. Commissioner Daly has been in
formed of the project and approves it.

BEAUTIFUL HAIR
Every Particle of Dandruff Dis
appears and Hair Stops
Coming Out.
Draw a Moist Cloth Through
Hair and Double Its
Beauty at Once.
Tour hair becomes light, wavy,
fluffy, abundant and appears as soft,
lustrous and beautiful as a young girl's
after a "Danderine hair cleanse." Just
try this moisten a cloth with a little
Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair, taking one small
strand at a time. This will cleanse the
hair of dust, dirt and excessive oil and
in Just a few moments you have dou
bled the beauty of your hair.
Besides beautifying: the hair at once.
Danderine dissolves every particle of
dandruff; cleanses, purifies and invig
orates the scalp, forever stopping itch
ing and falling hair.
But what will please you most will
be after a few weeks' use when you
will actually see new hair fine and
downy at first yea but really new
hair trowing all over the scalp. If
you care for pretty, soft hair and lots
of it surely get a 25-cent bottle of
Knowlton's Danderine from any drug
gist or toilet counter, and just try it.
Save your hair! Beautify it! You
will say this was the best 25 cents you
ever spent. Adv.
DRINK HOT WATER
BEFORE BREAKFAST
Says you really feel clean, sweet
and fresh inside, and
are seldom ill.
If you are accustomed t wake up
with a coated tongue, foul breath or
a dull, dizzy headache, or, if your meals
sour and turn into gas and acids, you
have a real surprise awaiting you.
Tomorrow morning, immediately upon
arising, drink i. glass of hot water with
a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate
in It. This is Intended to first neutral
ize and then wash out of your stom
ach, liver, kidneys and thirty feet of
intestines all the indigestible waste,
poisons, sour bile and toxins, thus
cleansing, sweetening and purifying
the entire alimentary canal.
Those subject, to sick headaches,
backache, bilious attacks, constipation
or anv form of stomach trouble, are
urged to get a quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate from tne arug swro
and begin enjoyinc: this morning in
side-bath. It is said that men ana
women who try this become enthusi
astic and keep it up daily. It is a
splendid health measure, for it is more
Important to keep clean ana pure on
the ineirte than mi the outside, because
the skin pores do not absorb impuri
ties into the blood, causing oiaease,
while the bowel pores do.
The principle of bathing inside Is
not new, as millions of people practice
it. Just as hot water and soap cleanse,
purify and freshen the skin, so hot
water and a teaspoonful of limestone
phosphate act on the stomach, liver,
kidneys and bowels. Limestone phos
phate is an inexpensive white powder,
and almost tasteless. Adv.
