ONE FAMILY HAS
ENOUGH OF MEXICO

Miles "A. Romney says he has had
enough of Mexico so long as present
conditions prevail He thinks the only
safe way to inhabit the colonies at
the present time is to go in sufficient
numbers to defend themselves.
A number of colonists were intend
ing to go into Mexico this morning,
but the train failed them.
1t is said the Mexican who was shot
for disturbing Mrs. Romney, rode to
the house on a horse stolen a few
minutes before from Archie Clayson.
A new and expensive saddle had just
been placed on the horse and they
were leading it to shelter when the
Mexican appeared and asked for both
horse and saddle, but he was refused
until he drew his six shooter. Then
he promised to go with Mr.. Clayson
to see his captain, who, he said, was
two or three blocks away, in town
As soon as Mr.. Clayson loosened his
grip on the reins the thief started in
the direction indicated, but he only
took few steps when he turned sur
denly and rode away in an opposite
direction, straight to Romney's.
The young people among the refu-
gees in FL Paso gathered at the home
Of Mrs Merrill last evening and en-
joyed themselves in games, songs, etc.

STUFF in It was, Hervo Lit match and
