A former A'illista officer told the story hero today, asserting the de tails came from the girl's family and neighbors. The boy was beaten to death by Villa's men at the bandit leaders com mand to "kill him." Villa had long maintained his re spect for women. Many stories are told in.

When his headquar ters were settled, Villa rode through the eitv. appraising the women he saw. As ho passed the homo of Arrietas family he espied Carmita, aged . 15, standing near the door. Villa slid from his horse and grasped the girl around the waist, smothering her shrieks with kisses. The girl's brother, a youth of 18, rushed at the bandit. Villa re leased the girl, but too late; the boy shot from the hip, hitting Villa in the right leg, just above the ankle and in the right thigh. Two more bullets whizzed harmlessly past the bandit's nead. Then, as the girl fled to her mother, the youth threw the smoking weapon in Villa's face and fled. Villa crumpled, but pulled himself together and mounted his horse. The boy ran into tho arm of a Villista guard and was promptly brought back to the bandit chief.

The incomparable Jack Barrymore mis pmyeu many roles on the screen including princes, dictators, gentlemen of extremely elegant leisure and other interesting types but he has never be fore played a crook. This remarkable characterization he has reserved for his latest Famous Players-Paramount picture "The Lost Bridegroom" which is the attraction at the Ye Liberty, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, dur ing the coming week. Of course Bar rymore is not a bona fide crook in the picture. He has been hit on the head b" two thugs while returning from his bachelor dinner on tiie eve of his wed ding to Dorothy Hardin, and has com pletely lost his memory as a result of the blow. After. falling off a dock upon which he elects to take nn impromptu nap, Bertie for that is the alias under which Barrvmore travels in thin fil stmnhles into i saloon which is the Headquarters for nn assorted gang of thieves, holdup experts and card sharps.
