to spring from a pile of wicker baskets
and at the same moment an officer seized
a man who was STOPPING over the baskets

It was in September, 1877. that was travelling on the overland stage southward, down the Rio Grande, from Albu- querque to Mesilla, and was crossing the Jornada by day. The Jornada-or to give it it's full name, Jornada del Munto-means journey of death. so you can judge from the title the at fractions of that piece of country. It is a1 open plain, stretching from the Rio Grande eastward 10 the San An dreas mountains, and the stage trail crossed it in order to cut off a great bend of the river. Tn the 70 miles of desert trail there was but one place where water was to be found-at Mar tins We'll, a stage station midway in the desert. At the other stage sta tions the water had to be hauled The overland company at that time had put in three-seated buckboards in place of their covered coaches. There were six passengers on the buck board this day-four men and a woman with her child, going 10 her husband at Sil- yer City-and 1 sat in the seat with Hank Barstow, who was driving. Four fine road mules made the blackboard spin, and the weather being fine, We were all feeling well.
 We had taken dinner at Martins Well, and now. at about half-past two in the afternoon. had passed Point of Roads, and were now about six miles or our way 10 the next station. Not man or beast had we seen on all the wide plain since we left Martins Well, Off to the east the plain rose in a long swell 10 a summit about two miles away, In the crystal air of New Mex ieo one could see everything as clearly at that distance as he would at a quar- ter of mile away from the sea level.

In a railway car. any where between the Missouri river and the Pacific, let an "old-timer' be drawn nto talking of experiences with hostile Indians and quickly he would be the center of a listening group, all eager to hear and to question him con cerning the red Ishmaelites of the western plains and mountains.
 How does it seem to be in fight with Indians? How do they make their attacks?' would be questions often asked he narrator; and 10 the second question the answer would be:
 Thar is what any hunter, or ranch man. or wagon master on the plains, when Indians were roaming at large. would have gwen his boots to know. Any man that outlives an Indian fight can tell how they did attack; but no man living can tell how they will come another time.
