THE TEXAN RANGERS.
First Fight With Indians In Whic"
ReyoIvers Were Used.

John Coffee Hays was reared Oh
farm in Wilson county, Tenn, being
horn there in 1917. At the age OF
eighteen he migrated to Texas, where,
during the struggle of that Mexican
nrovince for independence, he served
with distinction in the military cam
paign conducted by General Sam Hous-
ton. being noted for his bravery ana
strategy. After the termination OF that
conflict Hays was placed in command
of the small regular force that was
shortly afterward organized and be-
came known to fame as the Texan
rangers. Many were the desperate
fights in which he was engaged with
the fierce Comanches and border In
dams. and innumerable were the perils
which he encountered. He was tine
first to supply an armed force Witl
Colts revolvers for use in battle.
The Indian mode Of warfare in those
early days was to draw their enemys
fire and then sweep down upon then
like whirlwInd, plying their bows anc
using their long spears with deadly Ell
feet. So cautious were they in this re
spect that they soon distinguished tn
double barreled gun when It wal
brought into use and only approached
when they were sure that such weap
ons had been emptied. On the first oc
casion when Hays and his rangers
armed with the revolvers, met pam
on the warpath they allowed their mr.
to be literally drawn, and then the Ii
dams charged with exultant cries, Du
when the revolver was brought INT
play at close quarters the panic tina
ensued was absolute and the destru'
ton of the Indians complete. hay
was colonel Of the First Texan reg
ment the nucleus Of which was forme
of veteran rangers.

xyond Saints In Palestine.

"Wood saints" are peculiaritles OK
modern Palestine. They are described
in book Of travel and exploration
mThe Jordan Valley and Petra" by Dr.
Iibbey and DR.. Hoskins. At FL Apa-
diveh. below the sea of Galilee, where
the Jordan is fordable. they found their
first good specimens Of a wood saint.
A couple Of struggling trees marx the
resting place Of some holy Moslem.
The grave has made the trees sacred.
has given them q new name, faKlren
moor. and has rendered them sate
from outrage for ages to come. Inc
grave OF the holy man and the sacreu
trees convert the spot into SORT vi
sanctuary or safety deposit, apu
here the superstitious people bring nre-
wood. roof timbers, old doors ana VIII
dows, agricultural implements, WOODEN
measures and household vessels TOT
safe keeping. They are safer here than
they could possibly be under lock ano
kew in their wretched homes. so II
comes to pass that these Mosien

tremely useful fraternity.

Less Than the Actors.

Less Than the Actors.
Up to the year 1746 there seems 70
have been no regular and permanent
theater in Scotland. In that year the
foundation stone Of the Canongate the-
alter was laid by Lacy Ryan OF the Co
vent Garden thcater, London. AT the
prices then customary-viz, rs. od', ID
Cd. and 1s.-a full house was worm
from EGO to f65. On special OCCASIONS
such as the benefit Of popular actor'
as much as f7O was taken, but only by
admitting spectators to the wings ana
even to the stage itself. Sometimes
the stage was so crowded III tnls way
that the actors had not sufficient room
to carry out their business properly
and. If engaged in a duel, had to snort
on their lunges for fear of pinKlng
netron. It is to the credit Of Garrlck
that he was the first to set MS race
a. ainst this abuse and to close the
stage door even to prince OF the Diooo.
Those were days in which every the
ater led a precarious existence. Actors
were barely tolerated. They were le-
eally "vagabonds." Their profession
was considered immoral not only Dy
the great bulk Of the public, but, In q

for the actors.
