Foster Are .On Way From Torreon.to Portland, f LOST ALL POSSESSIONS Say Preslaast Wilsom Is KandHnr Bit. nation la Satisfactory Way Blxme Themselves for Staylftff Over. Albany, Or., Aug. 9. With the re sults of six years' hard work taken at a single swoop by Pancho Villa arid 1500 of hJa bandit followers. Mr. and Mm. T. P. Foster are in Albany on their way from Torreon. Mexico, to Portland. Foster Is 73 years oid and his wife Is 68. Six years ago, according to their story', alone in the World, they went to Mexico to rent cheap land and lay up an accumulation for their last years. They rented 40 aereir of rich, black soil five miles northeast of Tor reon, paying the Mexican government 69 cents an acre a year for the land and water rights. The soli was rich and yielded In pro fusion. FTon! a start) of an Old wagon and $7.o0 in cash, they soon had a nice little nest egg, which they constantly reinvested In land. cattle and fowls. They raised five acres of truck, which was' eagerly purchased by the MLBI tMtak m RSECUTI MEXICAN BANDIT V men at th mines and oil fields near by. Ttm "Trouble Started. Thlnes went well until ..the Villa trouble. Oft tha afternoon of February 13, 116, according to the couple's story, Mr. and Mrs. Foster were at their house, when Villa and his men rods up to th arm ana shot the 20 head of cattle, 125 fat hogs, 200 turkeyj and 400 chickens. All Were loaded into the Wagons. What vegetables Villa wanted were taken and the rest were uprooted and left to dry in the sun. It was to spite the "gringoes." Badly frightened, they got their two remaining horses, which happened to be four miles away at the time, and that evening they started for Califor nia, arriving at the border seven days later, after forced night rides. TUnki Villa Allre. Foster says he is sure Villa is alive. He believes President Wilson is han dling the situation correctly, the only possible mistake being to send sol diers into Mexico at all. He thinks a heavy patrol should be kept at the border to prevent aids, but Americans have no business in Mexico. "President Wilson warned us to leave Metico," fie said, "and ve did not do It. He offered to pay transportation tj the United States. We should have come then and not wait to be wiped out by the heathens. It was our own fault. This country should not mix up in the Mexican affair at all. They shpuld be left to settle the trouble themselves." Rifles on Hand. Albany, Or., Aug. 9.
