The actual conqueror of the Yaquis fien Francisco Manzo, one of the lean f the present rebellion who recently crossed the United States border a t Nogales to escape falling into federal hands. The Manzo campaign against the Yaqnis undertaken three vears ago was organized with 13,000 troops and equipment which included nine airplanes. Controlled River Valley At that time the Yaquis contrlled a region extending a hundred miles north of Buaymas in Sonora and which included some of the best lands in the republic. The stretch under Yaqui ownership extended along the Yaqui river valley in a district larger than the Imperial Valley of California and with water resources three times as great as those of the Imperial Valley. Today Ihe only Yaqui country left in Yaqui poer is in the Bacatete moun tains. But the power is small. All the warriors are gone or killed. Women and children and old men predominate in the last citadel. As in the present revolution, the rebl Indians in Yaquiland lost their fight partly through the government's use of the most modem arm of war — the airplane. The nine planes that Manzo had on his front flew again and again over Yaqui territory, bombing and spreading terror. The federal planes drove the inhabitants of Bacatete, the capital, into the mountains and finally destroyed it. Wanted Own Chief Ammunition ran low after the war had raged incessantly for many months) the plane raids continued unceasingly and finally, cut off from the world, and beleaguered from the air and all points of the compass, the Yaqnis surrendered.

WITCH BOOK GOOD SELLER • Harrisburg, Pa., May 11 —(UP) — Only the Bible and lie dictionary have had as consistent end lasting a sale as the modern reprint of a hook on “powwow" practices. “The Long Larst Friend,” declares a Monroe Aurand, of Harrisburg in "Tlie Pow-Wow Bool;" j a new volume written and published by Aurand. First printed in 1820 in Germany, and translated into English about 25 years later, tlie book still finds immense popularity all over the United States, Aurand declares. “The Long I>ost Friend” is the mystic book which three youthful slayers of a York County, Pa., farmer, wanted to get from the farmer, who, they thought, hail “hexed” them. The word “pow wow," Aurand explains, is of Indian derivation. Early settlers of America, bringing their own superstititions with them, found the Indians hail their own brand of superstition, passed down from the ages. The Indians used the word “powan," meaning conjuror, or prophet. In time, Aurand states, “powan" was corrupted by tlie settlers into "pow wow." The “pow-wower,” Aurand declares, ordinarily is not a mercenary charlatan, practising his or Iter mystic rites for profit, but a devout Christian who believes his art is based on Scripture. Most of the mystic formulae contain Bibical quotations or references to the Deity, whose aid is invoked in performing healing arts. For instance, to stop bleeding, the formula is; “Breathe three times upon the patient and say the Lord’s prayer three times until the words upon the earth" and the bleeding will stop.” Hardly Lives there a man with soul so something or other that he gets a kick out of newspaper photographs of officials being S' : ’>rn In?—Boston Globe.
