It is highly probable that the Score
tary of War will be forced into deal

Teresa Urea, is at the head OF 90"
Asoui Indians and can muster out an
,raednite number more. She is new
loan Of Arc; and, worthy or unworthy
her cause she is making the Mexican
Government more trouble than II mas
had since tho Mexican War.
Teresa Urrea's avowed purpose IS TO
overthrow Mexico and Dust President
Diaz She would establish another and
better form of Government with new
rules. but Of her further plans she VIII
saw nothing. The extent 10 which she
has thus far succeeded is shown by the
preparations which tho Mexicans are
making 20 resist her and the uneasy
feeling Of uprising that pervades the
country.

attacks. she Is as clever a diplomat as
any that ever upset a nation. II saint
led, as her followers believe she IS at
least a good. sincere woman.
The Asqui hope to take Mexico. or 4
portion OF it. for themselves. The object
OF their raid was 10 seize tho ammunl-
ton in the Nogaes Custom-House. With
this they could advance further into
Mexico. Santa Teresa IS their watch

their hearts and printed upon their ban

For a long time tho Indians sought
her hand In marriage. hoping to cement
her 10 them. They offered her the hand
OF Asquos. the noblest young brave OF

Of Asquos. the richest Of all warriors.
next sought her with the same result.
Now they would think IT sacrilcge TO ask
for the hand Of Santa Teresa.
The hut in the mountains whore the
modern Joan OF Arc lives is bare one

The history OF this modern Joan u
Arc-"Santa Sonora" as she IS called
Is interesting because II begins so very
much like that OF the Joan OF 400 years
ago. Teresa was born little Mexican
girl. on the Palo Parade ranch. north OF
Gonzales. in the State OF Sonora, where
her father and mother still live. Teresa
was a big-eyed. slender girl of dreamy
disposition. and possessed Of strange
