Texas a piece of land far larger than the tract originally lost. The Mex ican owners claimed possession, and a new convention, dealing with the questions under dispute, became necessary.
 ''To the fine discrimination, patience and tact of Brigadier General Anson Mills. U. s. A, appointed to represent the United States. we owe the final solution to the problem. He recom- mended that the 'cut-offs' be forever eliminated from the boundary line, all those occurring on the right of the river to pass to the jurisdiction of Mexico. those on the left to that of Texas. The inhabitants. if any, should retain their citizenship in the country from which they had been so suddenly end violently detached, or they might ac- quire the nationality of the country to which they were now attached. Any cutoff exceeding $50 acres in area and having a population of over 200 souls was not to be considered a banco, and the old bed of the river should remain the boundary. A con- vention embodyirg his recommenda- tiOns was finally ratified by both coun- tries. Thus the great turbid. silt bearing river is left to pursue its way untrammeled; but the terrors so long synonymous with it's name have through the operation of this equable arrangement become a part of the storied. romantic past

WANDERING ISLES OF THE RIO GRANOE
\Chansins of The Course The Cause of
 Much international Correspondence.

Washington, b. C. June 26-Mrs. Albert $. BuIleson, wife of the Post master General, in a communication to the National Geographic SocIety at Washington. D. C.. describes the wandering islands of the Rio GraEde, whose migrations from side to side of the water course have caused years of diplomatic correspondence and dis cussion between the United States and Mexico.
 The refusal of certain small bodies of land to remain permanently at tached to one or the other of the rivers banks deprived them of a fixed legal status as either Mexican or American territory and brought about their participation in many illegal and uprighteous adventures, which in turn led to misunderstandings oe- tween the two countries,' writes Mrs. Burleson.

Along it's sinuous route below Rio Grande City it pushes it's way through miles of level sand in it's final reach for the Gulf, twisting and doubling upon It. self like sea serpent In 1S4S 1t was fixed upon as the boundary line oe- tween the United States and Mexico. The boundary was to be the middle of the river. following the deepest channel But the river possessed characteristics that had not impressed themselves upon the framers Of the convention as possible causes of friction between the people living along it's banks. In addition to it's eroding power, exercised through long months of low and mean water. it could during flood periods leap with torrential force across a narrow neck of land at the base of one of its long loops and cut for itself a new channel. Through such avulsive action of the river, Texas soil would sometimes become Mexican, and on occasions d plantation occupied bp jacals and Mex ican citizens would over night find it. self a. part of Texas.
 An example will serve to show both the extraordinary actions of the river and the difficulties In the way Of any satisfactory adjustment of con fiicting interests.

Eight years later he was surprised when :: 1 acres of Mexican land came across the river and attachsd itself to his ranch An arrangement was effected by which he became the owner of this land Six years later the river ut off piece of Mir.
