ASPER INDIANA Tbe honeymoon is about over when the son begins to go out at nights. Some people' ida of generosity 1s to give away things thai they don't ant. Iso't It wonderful how women wtll kiss each other when they really want to bite? As a rule, a woman's theory for managing a husband is one Fhe had never tried out. It won't do much good to bridle your tongue unless you also put a check rein on your temper. The man v;ho aiways growls about giving is the mar who ne t gives as much as he ought to. Onions, says a I-os Angeies dietetVcian. promote spirituality and he urgea all preachers to eat them. Fvery once in a while a day passe when no one discovers a hidden romance in the life of a grand opera singer. Judging from the forecasts of coming masculine at lire, it will take a gatling gun to shoot folly as be t'ies tnis winter. The man with a $500 automobile looks just as arrogant to a pedestrian as a man in a $5,000 one. And there you are. Denmark Is to ship us cabbages and fears lest the aroma of sauerkraut be lost from this land are thus proved unfounded. A professor says people are losing their power to think. We know people who, if they have that power, seldom use it. An exchange speaks of a phonograph as feminine, but we don't knowwhy, for you can make a phonograph stop tailing. All sorts of tips are awaiting the barber who can leave our head in a comfortable position while he is cutting our hair. Still the chap who is run in for joy riding can console himself with the thought that he's helping to pay some one S5 a day. A cable report says the Parlsiennes have now discarded stockings. The leaving off process continues. Where is it going to stop? "It is truly possible to catch a cold by kissing," declares a famous physician. Please pass the quinine and mustard plasters. With the new picture complexion fad under headway at St. Petersburg, J ou'll have to scratch a wholo flower garden tc find a Russian. Now there I a revolt in Hayti. But Hayti without a revolt now and then would be too abnormal for comfortable native habitation. A Russian physician savs that exr ssive talking is dangerous.

BANDITS CAPTÜRE0!

MAXIMO CASTILLO AND BAND. WHO KILLED AMERICANS. ARE CAUGHT AT GAFALIN RANCH. EMELtO GARCIA TELLS STORY Nine Citizens of United States Die When Train Plunges Into Tunnel Set Afire by Bandits Forty Mexicans Periah. Pearson, Chihuahua. Mex.. Feb. 12. Maximo Castillo and his band were captured at Gabalin ranch by a detachment of soldiers under command of Major Samaniogo. who came up from El Valley, sesofdltg to a report brought by a courier here on Tuesday. The whole band will be brought to Casas Grandes, it is stated. General Castillo was previously reported to be hiding in tbe vicinity of the ranch, and constitutionalist soldiers from Madera. Pearson. Casas Grandes and El Valley have been pursuing him. Emilio Garcia, chief lieutenant of Maximo Castillo, was captured near Hachito on Tuesday and turned over to the United States army authorities on the border there. Garcia, it is alleged, confessed his part in the plot to burn the train. ( umbre, Chihuahua, Feb. 10. Many charred bones and several metal buttons and buckles from clothing were the only traces discovered of the bodies of the 40 passengers and crew of the train wrecked in the Cumbre tunnel of the Mexico & Northwestern railway Wednesday night. A rescue party equipped with oxygen helmets to guard them against the effects of the smoke and fumes of the still smoldering wreckage made their way from the south portal of the tunnel, over the wreckage of the burned freight train to the locomotive and forward cars of the passenger train on Sunday. Nothing remained of the cars but the metal frames and trucks, and it is believed that the bodies of the imprisoned passengers must have been completely destroyed by the intense heat. The crew of the freight train escaped and placed the blame on Castillo's bandits. .luarez, Feb. 10. Nine Americans and 40 or more Mexicans, whose fate lias been a mystery since the burning of the Cumbre tunnel by bandits, were suffocated. The tragedy is ascribed to Maximo Castillo, bandit leader. A special train carrying 20 Americans, led by W. J. Farragut, f0 coffins and a i rescue outfit left Juarez for the scene. The rescue train was prepared early in the evening, but was delayed a short time by a telegram from Secretary of State Bryan, who instructed Consul Edwards to see that a soldier guard preceded it so that the Americans aboard might be protected from possible attack by Castillo. General Benavides provided :m0 rebel troops and these were sent ahead of the rescue party on another train. The exact number of persons aboard the passenger train is not known. First reports put the number at 35. but a request for 75 'offyis was made by a searching party led by Dr. F. C. Herr of Madera. Railroad men are furious at Cas tillo's act. Tuesday 22 of his men were captured and executed by rebels. The next day. apparently in revenge, he captured a freight train, ran it into the south end of the tunnel about 200 feet and set It on fire, but gave railway men no warning, übe passenger train, whose crew araj ignorant of danger, entered the death trap from the north while the tunnel was burning. When the engineer discovered the trap It was too late to save his train or passengers. Tin missing Americana, all employes of the railroad, were: M. J. Qilmartin, superintendent of the Chi QUahtta division; B. Schofleld. superintendent of terminals at Juarez; Lee Williams, assistant manager of commissary; H. F afardere, express agent; K. .1 ateCntcheoii, engineer: I. K Webster, conductor; Kdwnrd Morris, roadmaster: Thomas Kellv. con doctor, and James Hurgess.
