Look Out.
Is Villa Dead or Alive?
Washington, September 11:?Officials
of the war department who for
months have maintained that Francisco
Villa is dead had their opinions
bolstered today by the following telegram
received by the department
from Gen Pershing:
"Reports regarding Villa's movement
north continuously received
through El Paso authorities. So far
these reports cannot be confirmed
here,though every possible source of
inform:; ion is being used.
"Patrols at San Lorenzo from El
Valle reached Santa Clara canyon
and about 30 miles on Chihuahua
road,!but could hear nothing of Villa
or of any movement of Villistas.
People had heard rumors of Villistas
at Satevo, but nothing of any action
north of there.
A consular dispatch received by the
state department from Mexico bore
out the message from Gen Pershing.
It stated that no evidence had been;
obtained of rumored movements by
ViMa.

complete control over these banks.

"Hell In Texas."
A post card containing the following
verses and bearing the above
heading was received in Kingstree a
few days ago by a mother from one
of her sons on the Texas border as a
: member of the National Guard:
| The Devil in hell we're told was chained.
' And a thousand years he there remained.
He neither complained nor did he groan,
But determined to Start a hell of his own.
i Where he could torment the souls of men
Without being chained in a prison pen.
So he asked the Lord if he had on hand
Anything left when he made this land.
The Lord said, "Yes. I had plenty on hand.
But I left it down on the Rio Grande;
The fact is, "old boy," the stuff is so poor,
I Hnn't think von can use it in hell anv more."
| But the Devil went down to look at the truck.
And said if he took it as a rift he was stuck.
For after examining it carefully and well.
He concluded the place was too dry for a heli.
So in order to get it off His hand
The Lord promised the Dpvil to water the land.
For he had some water, of rather some dregs,
A regular cathartic and smelled like bad eggs.
Hence the trade was closed, the deed was given.
And the Lord went back to his home in Heaven'
The Devil said to himself, "1 ha\ e all that is
needed
To make a good hell," and hence he succeeded.
He began by putting thorns all over the trees.
And mixed up the sand with millions of tleas;
He scattered tarantulas along the roads,
Fut thorns on cactus, and horns on the toads.
He lengthened the horns of the Tejtas stee: s,
And put an addition to the rabbits' ears;
He put a little devil in the broncho steed,
And poisoned the feet of the centipede.
The rattlesnake bites you. the scorpion stings.
The mosquito delights you with his buzzing
wings;
The sand burs prevail, and so do the ants.
And those who sit down need half-soles on their
pants.
The Devil then said that throughout the land
He'd arrange to keep up the Devil's own brand,
And all should be Mavericks unless they bore
Marks or scratches of bites and thorns by the
score.
The heat in the summer is one hundred and ten.
Too hot for the Devil and too hot for men;
The wild boar roams through the black chaparral;
Tie a hell of a place he has for a hell.

DRIVING OUT CATARRH
If people knew how the presence
of catarrh Is a constant menace,
they would have none of it
infests some part of the delicately
adjusted body and makes it useless,
thus throwing on the other organs
more than their share of work. It
affords a carefully prepared seedbed
for the germs of colds, grip,
tuberculosis and pneumonia. It so
disarranges Nature's delicate plans
as to make possible asthma, hay
fever and other respiratory dlsordera
It spreads until it becomes
systemic, thus involving many organs
and debilitating the entire
system with serious results.
Catarrh is easily neglected, and
it rarely gets well of itself. It
needs proper medicinal correction.
For almost half a century many
thousands havo found help in Pernnn
a vnliiAhlo tonic with SDeclal
efficacy In catarrhal conditions.
The aim Is to clean out waits matter.
to dispel the catarrhal inflammation,
and tone up the whole system.
Its users willingly testify
that It has done all this and even
more for catarrhal sufferers. What
It has done is the best proof of
what It will do. You may rely on
Peruna.
In tablet form it la pleasant to
ter. ^
The Charleston Chamber of Commerce
will visit Beaufort Tuesday to
