I dad Rogeriguez, one of the best
of Villa's brigade commanders,
was shot through the throat
and has since died. The consti-
tutionalists, in . many cases
had to advance on hands and
knees as those below on the
steep inclines passed the rifles
from hand to hand. These feats
were accomplished under heavy
machine-gun fire.
Nothing seemed to lessen the
determinaton of Villa's troops,
though the federals had thrown
up trenches and redoubts on all
sides. Hillsides afforded no
cover for the attacking troops.
The cordon of defenders grad-
ually narrowed until the last
hills on the outskirts of the city
^ell into the hands of Villa's men.

The Transcript is pleased to
learn that Tom. F. Carey has
filed for the Democratic nomina-
tion for State Senator from this
district, the 19th, comprising
Cleveland, Garvin and McClain
counties, for it knows that if he
gets the nomination the district
will be represented by a truly
representative man; a man who
knows how to go'about it to get
things, is thoroughly posted on
all matters of moment to Ok-

she charges with conspiring
against her, humiliating her,
and endeavoring to keep her out
of the University. The action is
based on a happening at the Um-
