TESTIMONY 1 OF SOLDIERS
Slain Men Met Their Fate With
Extreme Bravery, Both Re
ports Declare.
WASHINGTON, April 3.—From two
widely different sources come the first
apparently authentic details of the
tragedy and treachery which marked
the overthrow of the Madero Govern
ment by Huerta and Felix Diaz in
Mexico City. One of these reports
was received in Washington to-day
by a close personal friend of the man
who submitted it. The writer is a
Mexican who has held a high of
ficial position in Mexico for years.
He was not identified with the Made
ro faction; in fact, he took no part
In politics. He is at present a refu
gee in the United States because
he took no pains while in Mexico
City to conceal his opinion of the
killing of President Madero.
The other informant is a warm
personal friend of many of the Ma
dero family, and was on most inti
mate terms with President Madero,
although lie held no official position.
He has spent several days in Wash
ington under an assumed name.
Both he and the ex-official hac.
exceptional opportunities for discov
ering the facts. Each gained his In
formation concerning the death of
Gustavo Madero from soldiers who
witnessed it.
The report submitted by the refu
gee official is laconically headed
"Facts." While diction of the trans
lation is imperfect, the meaning is
clear.
“Facte” Submitted.
Concerning the death of Gustavo
Madero the refugee said:
"Gustavo and I were not on par-
ticlularly friendly terms. I might say
that we disliked each other. But
he certainly died like a Caballero.
One of the soldiers who was in the
court vard when the murder took
place told me all about it., They
brought Gustavo out. He was blink
ing as the light struck his one eye
His glass eye had been jerked out
bv Huerta himself when he was ar
rested in the Gambrino restaurant.
"Gustavo demanded by what right
thev were treating him so roughly,
and told the officer in charge that, if
he would give him a gun or a sword
he would send one or two of his cap-
tors to hell before he died. For an
swer one of the soldiers struck him in
the eye with a bayonet and then
gouged it out. Others of the soldigrs
thrust him in the groin with their
bayonets and one man used a keen
knife. And all the time Gustavo was
shouting “Cowards!" and “Traitors!"
and imploring some one to hand a
sword, or even a machete.
“ITS wasn't tortured long. He was
dragged over to the heavy wall, where
he stood, still cursing his tormentors,
weak from loss of blood, but still up
right. Then they turned a machine
gun on him and it was all over. His
body was absolutely unrecognizable.”
Francisco Madero Brave.
Of Francisco Madero the speaker
saiil:
"The President had shown on many
occasions absolute ignorance of the
meaning of physical fear. He showed
strong during his last days. The story
of his riding at the head of his troops
to the National Palace has already
been published, hut one incident. I
think, has never been printed. Dur
ing his approach to the palace his big
gray horse was shot from under him.
Madero drew bis feet from the stir
rups and slipped to the ground un
hurt. He calmly walked over to a
soldier who was riding near him and
dragged the man from his horse and
mounted again and rode on.
“Francisco l#new that he was fight-
ing against odds, but be wotildn t ad
mit It by Ills manner. Of course he
was suspicious of 'Huerta by that
time. But he 'bluffed' his way
through to his office in the palace. As
he walked through the guard room,
just inside the entrance of the pal
ace. he noticed the expression on the
fares of the soldiers on guard. He
didn't hesitate. He faced them and
said; ,,
'Here I am, Francisco Madero,
lawful President of the Republic. If
you are going to shoot me you have
a chance to do it now.'
"Then, after a silence, the little man
walked unconsciously out into the
corridor and proceeded to his desk.

‘•MY THEORY ALL WRONG” LAFFERTY HOLDS RECORD
As Miss Gates She Trav
Miles of Snow—Met
eled Over Thousands of
Husband in Dawson.
WASHINGTON, May 3.—Mrs. Key
Pittman, wife of the new Senator
from Nevada, will soon join her hus
band here.
The riding clubs are anticipating
Mrs. Pittman as a member, as sho
was celebrated as a fine horsewom
an. She will, no doubt, also join the
Daughters of the American Revolu
tion, being eligible as a direct de
scendant of General Horatio Gates,
of Revolutionary fame. She is a na
tive of California, her father. Edgar
R. Gates ; having been an extensive
dealer in redwood timber of that
State. The family is well known in
social and financial circles. She at
tended a girls’ seminary in Eureka,
Cal., and later studied music in San
Francisco.
Traveled in Klondike.
Mr. Pittman bears the distinc
tion of being the only woman to
enter Washington official life who
has traveled through many thousand
miles of Klondike snows.
A few years ago she went to Alas
ka with her brother, Edgar Gates,
who was interested in mines near
Dawson. They built boats at Linder-
man, wnich were placed on sleds and
tarried down to where the waters
were open on the Yukon, and through
floating ice they arrived at Dawson.
It was here she first met Mr. Pitt
man and was soon after engaged to
him.
Later she made the return trip to
meet her fiance at Nome, since he
was actively engaged in leglil battles
pending at Nome and it was impos
sible fer him to leave. This mo
mentous trip was made with two-
dog-team driver- over the icy Yukon
in midwinter. Mrs. Pittman is of
vigorous physique and withstood the
hardships of the cold and country
with ease.
Senator Pittman in speaking of
this said: “I think women, and espe
cially the women of the Klondike,
have greater powers of endurance
than the men. TJp there in the cold
countries many times' when the men
were ‘played out’ the women had con
siderably the best of them as to en
ergy.
Out-of-Door Health.
“We both have ^een many deeds
of daring there, and perhaps the
health and vigor Which Mrs. Pittman
enjoys are due to the fact that she
spends a great deal of her time out
of doors. She is a fine companion
and has taken a Keen interest in rill
ing, driving, fishing, hunting and
motoring with me, though she has
also had a literary training.
“While not a militant suffragette
she believes with me that women
should have the ballot. In truth, I
included suffrage in all my speeches
during the campaign in my State. I
think the one fundamental reason of
my efforts in behalf of suffrage in
our State was our particular political
field
“The suffrage women of our State
have been particularly active, and
my wife is heartily in accord with
them. She believes in the untiring
energy and stability of women when
they are healthy."

CHICAGO, May 3.—If you ary in

“Baby” Dragged From Under Engine
Meets Fireman Who Saved It
for First Time.
BLOOMINGTON, ILL.. Ma$r 3.—A
tall young man walked into the office
of J. J. Butler, trainmaster of the
Chicago & Alton, and introduced him
self as John Bott, of Godfrey.
“You saved my life seventeen years
ago and I want to thank you.” Bott
said. “This is the first opportunity
I have had.”
In 1896 Butler was a fireman on
the same road. running between
Bloomington and St. Louis. One
morning he and his engineer were
horrified to see a baby standing be
tween the rails. The engineer ap
plied the air brakes, but it was plain
that he could not stop in time.
Fireman Butler, like a flash, went

along the running board, dropping to
the pilot. Standing upon the lower
step of the pilot and holding cn with

Aged Theorist Finally Decides
That the Good Old Way Is
All Right.
LOS ANGELES. May 3.—George
W. DaCunha, formerly of Montclair,
N. J., who a few years ago came into
national prominence through advo
cating a plan of compulsory marriage
for all men over thirty and women
over twenty-five, the soul-mating to
be done by lot at the instance of the
municipal or State Government, but
completely repudiated his own pet
scheme and retracted every statement
he had made in exploiting it.
Now he admits and insists that the
old-fashioned plan where romance is
left untrammelled and little Cupid
does the pairing is the best plan
after all, everything being considered.
Why?
He’s married now.
Theorist Breaks Rule.
Unknown to his friends, this the
orist stole away like a modern Romeo
and married the woman of his
own individual choice on the 31st of
December.
The now Mrs. DaGunha was for
merly Miss Ellen I. Swain, of Santa
Monica.
In two glaring respects DaCunha’s
marriage was contrary to his care
fully worked out plan to put an end
to the fear of race suicide and build
up an American race. Lacking in the
mechanical, arbitrary method of
bringing husband and wife together,
as he advocated, his marriage had the
element of romance and it was a de
liberate selection, on the part of both
—for the two had been friends for
over fifty years. He is seventy-six.
and says it would be impertinent for
any one to ask his wife’s age.
And to cap the climax, the mar
riage was solemnized at the very
place where the atmosphere is per
meated with romance, where young,
romantic couples flock from far and
near—Santa Ana
DaCunha, who made a good-sized
fortune out of his profession as ar.
architect, having erected some of
New York’s first skyscrapers, and
having doubled this amount several
times through investments in New
York real estate, thought he would
wander about aimlessly over the
world for a while. So he started for
Panama, but when he reached New
Orleans he had a cold, and therefore,
thereupon, made up his mind that
California was the place.
Here he came, and met his old
friend, Miss Swain. That was on De
cember 1. A short time afterwards
he decided he would not depend on
the God of Fortune in the matter of
matrimony, that he would not take
his chance at shaking up a numbe
of names in a box and marrying ac
cording to the draw—he popped the
question.
Secretly Married.
They Mere to be married in June
but on the last day of the year, on a
little visit to Santa Ana, they wer*
walking along the street. “She pitied
me.” said DaCunha, laughingly, yes
terday, in relating his story. “I am
old and she pitied me, and pity is
sometimes the ki'i of love.”
“Do you still adhere to your scheme
regarding compulsory marriages in
the light of your own actions?” he
was asked.
“No, the plan is all wrong. It never
could have worked. It was imprac
tical. and besides, happiness in mar
ried life cannot be secured that way.’
DaCunha’s systematic plan, which
he discussed at great length a few
years ago, was based on two premises.
First thar marriage, at best, was a
lotterq. Second that there would
never be an American race, as such,
unless immigration was stopped, and
marriage was forced.
His theory was at once taken up
and widely discussed by women’s
clubs and ministers in all sections of
the country, and he received hundreds
and hundreds of letters from all sec-
tions relative to his proposed plan
He even at one time stated that he
was contemplating drafting a bill, to
be introduced in the New Jersey Leg
islature, which absolutely prohibited
single blessedness after a man had
passed 'he age of thirty or the wom
an had arrived ac the age of twenty-
five.

Legless Man Proves
Wonderful Farmer
Missouri Man Overcomes Physical
Handicap and Makes Suc
cess of Life.
PARIS, MO.. May 3.—A young man
with no legs, yet who can traverse a
county at pleasure, getting about al
most as well as those who do have
legs, and who manages and does his
part of the actual work on a farm
of 240 acres, is one of the prodigies
Monroe county has given the world.
His name is Earl Craft.
He is a son of Charles E. Craft, liv
ing near Paris, and he was born on
a Monroe County farm 25 years ag >.
In good looks, manners and general
demeanor he might pass for Sir
Richard Calmady, the legless hero of
Lucas Malet’s novel of that name. \t
the age of twelve years Earl was
taken with necrosis of the bone, for
which there is no specific, and both
his legs were amputated at the hips.
He can hook or unhook a tear;,
ride a horse, drive a gang plow, cui-
tivator <>r binder, and do almost any
thing else to be done on a farm, save
gather corn, at which he is not very
handy. Last week in* built anil roofed

WASHINGTON, May 3.—Modesty
does not predominate in the biogra
phies of new mertibers of Congress,
as shown in the Congressional Direc
tory just iswued.
The new members have gone into
great detail as to how they happened
to come to Congress, and some of
them predict considerable success for
themselves. The biographical materi
al for the directory is furnished by
the Congressmen themselver.
Senator William' Thompson, of
Kansas, says, “his political success
is almost without parallel in the his
tory of the State.” He further writes:
"It is acknowledged by all who know
him that as* Senator he will not only
bring credit and honor to himself,
but to the State and nation as well.”
The longest biography is yiat of
Representative Rafferty, of Oregon,
He tells where all his brothers and
sisters were born aijd where he was
born; where all the folks are living
now; where his various forbears were
born and what they did to distin
guish themselves.
Lafferty’s Record.
To show that success has not turned
his head, Mr. Lafferty remarks that
his full name is Abraham Walter
Rafferty, that his friends call him
Walter and that his signature is
"simply” A. W. Lafferty.
Representative Kavanaugh, of Ark
ansas, says he has held every position
on the Arkansas Gazette from re
porter to editor and manager. Rep
resentative Keating was an active
reporter and editor for twenty years
in Colorado, before he decided to rep
resent a district from that State.
E’Engle, of Florida, says he has had
considerable trouble running his
papers.
Representative Hughes, of Idaho,
says he served four years ns presi
dent of the Georgia State Agricultural
Society “with great ability.”
Representative Fred Britten, of
■Chicago, makes mention of a unique
event in the politics* of the day. He
isi the only man in the Sixty-third
Congress who defeated a sitting Rep
resentative. He is a Republican and
beat Representative Evans, a Demo
crat. Representative William Henry
Wilder, of Massachusetts, has taken
out over fifty patents*. Samuel W.
Beaker, of Michigan, spent only ten
days campaigning.
“Spoiler” Attorney.
Senator Key Pittman, of Nevada,
was Attorney in a lawsuit in Alaska
which laid the foundation for Rex
Beach's novel “The Spoilers.” Repre
sentative Foss, of Ohio, tells in the
directory where all his children are
and what they are doing. The biog
raphy of Representative James San
ford, of Oklahoma, hays he was once
speaker of the Cherokee Legislature,
the only intermarried white man who
ever hold that position.
Representative Allan B. Walsh, of
Trenton, N. J., “has the distinction
of representing the home district of
President Wilson and also of being
the first. Democratic Congressman
from Mercer County in fifty-seven
years.”
Representative Bremmer, of Passa
ic, N. J.. says he was nominated
against his will and Representative
Clancy, of Syracuse. N. Y., savs he
was terribly surprised when elected
because he thought his candidacy a
Joke and that he is looked on “as
a political curiosity.”
Representative Charles Manly Stod-
man, of North Carolina, is one of the
twelve soldiers who were engaged in
the first battle of Bethel, and who
surrendered with Lee at Appomattox.
Representative Difenderfer, of Penn
sylvania, says he built and operated
.the first woolen mill in the Chinese
Empire.
Murray’s Nickname.
Representaive Murray, of Okla
homa. has his nickname—“Alfalfa
Bill”—beside his regular name in the
book.
Lawyers, as usual, form the bulk
of the legislators. Sixty-nine are in
the Senate and 270 in the House. In
the Senate there are eight editors, Fix
farmers, five business men. five bank
ers, two doctors and one soldier. The
House contains seventy-nine business
men, thirty-three editors, ten teach
ers. eighteen farmers, nine mechanic*-
and workmen, six bankers, six doc
tors, one author, one soldier, one
preachei and one lecturer.
The directory lists in the Senate
fifty-one Democrats, forty-four Re
publicans and one Progressive. In the
House there are 290 Democrats, 127
Republicans, seven Progressive Re
publicans, nine Progressives and one
Independent, with a vacant seat
caused by the death of Representa
tive Lagare, of South Carolina. The
House roll call, which for several
Congresses has been led by Represen
tative Adair, of Indiana, will be led
in this Congress by a new Representa
tive, John W. Abercrombie, of Ala
bama.

CLEVER TRICK WORKED
BY FRENCH DESERTERS
PARIS, May 3. Four soldiers de
serted from the barracks of Riom re
cently by an amusing trick.
They had evening leave, and went
to a public dance in a hall in the
town. During an intervals they pro
posed to four civilians that it would
be good fun to change clothes and
puzzle their partners.
The civilians put on the uniforms,
and the soldiers put on the civilians’
cloi.ies. Later the fotir civilians went
to the barracks to give up their uni
forms and report what had happened.
The soldiers are still missing.

TO SAVE GIRLS
Los Angeles Puts Two Female
Detectives at Work to Guard
Delinquents.
I,DS ANGELES, May 3.—Aiming
to protect young women and avoid
delinquency among them as far as
possible, two women plainclothes offi
cers have been appointed to com
mence work in this city May 1. Mrs.
Alice Stebbins Wells, the first police
woman ever appointed, and Mrs. Ra
chel Shat to, who has been a police
matron, will be the new team of wom
en plainclothes patrolwomen.
The two women officers are to op
erate in the same manner as do de
tectives and plainclothes officers. They
are to be on duty from 4 o'clock in
the afternoon until nearly midnight.
They are to patrol the downtown
Btreets Just as policemen do, only
they will wear street clothes, and will
visit dance halls, skating rinks, mo
tion picture theaters, cafes, penny ar
cades and amusement places in gen
eral where juveniles are in need of
protection. While they are expected
in a general way to see that all laws
and ordinances regulating these
amusement places are obeyed and
prosecute the offenders, their partic
ular work will be to act as protec
tive officers to young girls who are
roaming about the streets or who are
conducting themselves in an improp
er manner.
Wherever they see the conduct of
young people to be such that it should
be reported to their parents, they are
to escort them home and inform their
parents of what they have learned,
and then make a report to the juve
nile department.

this morning to rock his new-born
twin boys to sleep. When he went
out to the barn to do his early

of six pigs. Not to be outdone, a
