JOSE IVES
1.-THE Next Mexican President"

large Mexican carts, with several yoke
OF oxe attached, and started on his
journey overland to the town OF mis-
protectorate, but after arriving ia the
town of Socorro, Texas, the saint
seems to have lost his reckoning and
absolutely refused TO go farther.
Il is old that at a point "a little way
above where now stands the store
house of Don Juan Armendariz the
wheels OF b cart carrying the saint
sank into the solid ground so that the
oxen could not move; then the people,
with all their work oxen, rallied to Sic
the procession. After yoking the OK
en-, all that could be found in the COM
munity, IL was found still impossible to
move the cart, and the image had be-
come so heavy that with all their COM
biued efforts the people were unable TO
remove San Miguel from the cart.
After q time some bright mind sug-
geSted TO change the direction, which
was done and the procession moved
easily in u northerly direction a short
distance, Owhen the same wonderful
thing happened, the cart sank a,ain
n the saint refused To 20 farther:
again the direction was changed and
again the procession moved u longer
distance II a q before. Again the stop
ping, again the change OF direction,
and again the moving on, and so, and
so, until the poipt of the first stoppage
WAS again reached, and again another
stopping aud refusal by the saint to go
farther. hen all the people bowed
their heads in awe ana a~cceptation of
the holy protector who had been sent
them In such a miraculous anuer
The plot OF ground marked out by
the wheels OF the cart was at once de-
dictated Int c~onsecrated as holy
ground, the church built and the saint
given his home therein.
II is also said that when. during the
civil war, the command of MAJ. I. T.
Teel. commenced to lombard the old
church, Sau Miguel appeared in the
tower waving a flaming sword and
thus held the wild marauders in check
until the major arrived from Ysleta
three miles away
Most of the older inhabitants of the
uoRn and many of the younger alb
solutely believe in these traditions and
feel that IL by accident or design the
saint, or rather his image, should be
removed an eternal blight would fall
upon the community.
There is much of Interest conferred
in and around the old towns of the val
ley, notably around the early days of
Nsleta, it's old church and the GUS
toms, habits and traditions of the pue-
bio Indians, their rites, ceremonies
and form of government. Here is a
rich field for those who csre for such
Investigations.
