Gladness Comes

With a better understanding Of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, But simply to constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
ly removes. That is why il is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which IL acts. II is therefore
ali important, in order to get it's bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase. that you have the genuine arti-
Gle. which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment Of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. IL
afflicted with any actual disease, one
NAV be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
osed and gives most general satisfaction.

thought she was going % die. In other
countries 1t would have been said that
the sufferers heart had been broken by
her faithless sweetheart.
Teresa lay in a comatose condition for
days and weeks. Food was forced into
her mouth. Her eyes were wide open,
but they saw nothing. People heard Of
the strange malady which afflicted the
girl and came many miles to see her
deathlike form stretched out on the
couch. Teresa evidently had brain fever
and when the sickness had worn itself
out, leaving her like a skeleton, she re-
gained consciousness. Whether her
mind was fully restored is question.
HER FIRST VISION.
When she first began to talk she said
wonderful things. She claimed that her
soul had been to heaven and had con-
versed with angels clad in raiment of
bewildering magnificence. These angels
had told her what she must do when she
returned to earth, and she declared her
intention Of obeying the heavenly in
structions.
Few doubted her story. When 1t be-
came widely known the ignorant and
the superstitious fiocked to her. They
said they would do anything she bade
them. Her father was quick to appre-
ciate the new power of the girl. He as
sumed entire control of the actions OF
Teresa, directing her when to make
public heavenly communications, wher
to foment trouble and when to lead hel
hosts into battle.
While Teresa is virtually the tool oi
the father, he in turn is controlled by al
educated Mexican named Lauro Aguirre

fearful uproar We're she ever put to

he same way that Schlatter did in Colo
fado last year. Many miscellaneous
cures have been attributed to her, and
these have added largely to her power.
There was a constant stream of pill

the neighboring Mexican states her
fame has spread.

scene Of the recent raid. The two were

munioations order her to work the over
throw of the Mexican government and
drive the Mexicans out of the land. The
santa believes her mission in life to be
the destruction of the Mexican govern
ment. and on several occasions this be-
lief has almost caused the destruction
of her own life.
ROMANCE OF TERESA.
The deluded followers made her a saint
seven years ago. The way it came
about was this: Teresa had a sweet
heart. young Spaniard, who made love
to her, and, as she presumed, intended
to marry her. Teresa was a nice, quiet,
inoffensive girl then. She was shy and
coy, like other young girls in love, and
was immensely happy.
One day she learned that her sweet
heart had married another girl The
news was broken to her in very rough
manner by the young man himself. He
calmly introduced his new bride to her
and laughed at her distress. Teresa then

The Strange Career of the Girl
Yaqui Saint
SHE SEEKS A REVOLUTION
Teresa Urrea's Romantic Story and Her
Weird Visions
She Has Led q Dozen Armed Forces Into
1exico "A Horde Of Fanatics
Her Followers

Ell PASO, Sept. 2.-The next time
that Teresa Urea sets foot on Mexican
soil it will probably be step directly into
her grave. The Mexican government
has grown tired of her at last, and now
small mercy will be shown her. For
seven years, ever since she was 16 years
old, she has been veritable firebrand,
melting her fanatic followers to crazy
deeds Of violence, causing the death of
at least 1900 persons, and forcing both
the Mexican and United States govern
ments to spend large sums of money to
restore the peace she has disturbed.
It is not likely that Terest Uurrea
ever read the life story of Jeanne dare,
but her wild doings are something akin
to the deeds Of that heroic girl. AS ev-
cry one knows, Jeanne believed hersef
to be the agent of heaven to right the
wrongs of France, and she went forth in
battle to accomplish that end. She had
visions and conversations with celestial
beings, and there is little doubt that
many of her victories were due to the
faith reposed in her and her visions by
her followers.
Teresa Urea has visions and asserts
that every once in awhile she holds COM
munion with heavenly bodies. Her fol-
lowers, the Yaqui Indians, are as super
stitious as were the French people OF
four centuries ago. The Yaquis are not
really Indians. They are the descendants
of the Aztecs Of Mexico, but they have
inherited few of the meritorious quail
tiles which characterized that ancient
people.
NOT A PRETTY SAINT.
Teresa Urea is better known as the
Saint of the Yaquis. She is called San
ia Teresa by her followers. The peace
loving people living along the line be-
tween Mexico and the United States
call her the Sonora Witch. In Arizona
she is known as Teresa de Cabora, but
her real name is Urea. She is % years
old, and cannot be called pretty. She is
not ugly by any means, neither is she a
beauty. She has a squatty figure and
round fat face, just as hundreds OF or
binary Mexican women have. She can
ride a horse like an Indian buck, and
appears more graceful in the saddle than
afoot Generally she rides astride, and
at a distance would be taken for man.
Three weeks ago Santa Teresa again
forced herself into notice by fomenting
the trouble at Nogalez, Ariz., which cul-
minated in the Yaqui raid on that place.
Now the bulk of the Yaqui tribe is out,
ready to commit any crime. Companies
of Mexican and United States regulars
are out hunting the Yaquis, and it will
be more than a month before things
have quieted down again. In the mean
time there will be good deal of killing
done on all sides, simpy because Santa
Teresa Gained that she had communi-
The herald., 1896-09-13

Later came the news of an Indian
massacre in the mountains of Chihua-
hua by MEXICAN soldiers. Teresa had
secretly returned to Mexico and had
stirred up trouble. 1t seems that she
had led the Indians to battle in person,
mounted on a white horse. Hundreds
of her followers were killed, and al
though she was in the thickest of the
fight from start to finish she escaped
without a scratch. 1t was said that she
had charmed life and this added to her
fame. Teresa was captured, imprisoned
and again exiled. Since then she has
led more than six armed forces into
Mexico, and each time she escaped in
jury or capture.
Now the Mexicans say, they Will kill
Now the Mexicans say they will kill

The Political Pharisees

The meeting of the Pharisees in In
dianapolis has not electrified the coun-
try. 1t has simply intensified the feeling
that this is contest between the mass

to believe that this is SO in fact, but we
all know that they We're all generals,
and generals without following, at the
gold convention; that the labor element

ing in representation, and that it was a

struggling masses. And this fact would
