VILLA'S HEAD
STOLEN FOR SCIENTIFIC PURPOSES. CHICAGO, February 12. The head of Francisco Villa, the once famous Mexican bandit, was stolen from the grave on February 5, and is now on its way to Chicago to be examined by scientists with regard to its pathological interest. An eccentric millionaire, who is interested in criminology, paid a band of robbers, who broke open Villa’s tomb and decapitated the remains. Dr Orlande Scott, the brain specialist, announces that the head will arrive in a few days.
"Give me a sentence containing the word ‘ devise.’ " “ It's devise bircl that gets up early to get do yorm.”
