SAN ANTONIO, June I5.-Luis de la Rosa today made good his threat to raid the border when one hundred of his men attacked a small detach- ment of the Fourteenth American Cavalry, numbering about 80 men, at San Ignacio. 40 miles southeast of Laredo. His action cost him eight men killed, several wounded and many horses and some equipment The American loss was three killed and six wounded.
 Major Alonzo Gray late today was using every man of his little command in sweeping search of the country around San Ignacio for hot trail. from which, if it is discovered, a punitive expedition" will enter Mex ico.
 By daylight this morning the at tacking force had scattered like quail The larger part re-entered Mexico. but some of them, at least. scattered along the brush covered country on the American side.
 The Americans fought from trenches into which they were ordered inn mediately after the attack began. When they moved out and began the offensive the Mexicans were gone.
 The American dead are:
 Private Minaden, Troop NJ; Private Chas. F. Flowers, Troop M: Private Edward Katanch, Troop NJ.
 The American wounded are
 Privates Thomas H. Ewing and James E. Rouch, Troop l; Corporal Wm. Oberlies, Privates Wm. Minnette, Tony Havlin and Henry Matasoff of Troop M

 MaJor Gray reported that he had been in communication with a detach- ment of Carranza troops on the Mex ican side of the river and that it's of ficer commanding had informed him that his men already had run down and sflot four of the bandits Major Gray made no comment on the of fcers statement.
 The identity of the raiding party was established by the story of Vicente Lara. who entered the Ameri- can camp several hours after the fight and announced that he had been a prisoner of the Mexicans.
 The name of the raiders leader has not been reported.
 Major of De Factos.
 From the body of one of the Mex jeans papers were taken that indicat- ed that he was Cruz Ruis, a major in the Carranza army. Undue import ance was not attached to this dis covery by army officers. however, who halinpn was carrying the papers more as souvenirs of the days when he. was an officer in the government army than to show his authority now
 General Funston has not ordered more troops to reinforce Major Gray's but if he succeeds in find ing trail justifying him in crossing the international line in pursuit of the bandits, supporting party will be sent forward immediately.

ent. If by SO doing you preserve your
grandfather's fortune, instead Of being
a beggar you will be rich when he
dies
Young Brummager proved an easy
convert to the plan. Mr.. keenege
showed him the letter purporting to
have been written by Mrs. Thistleton
and told him to show it to his GRANDPA
Their, confessing that he had made the
proposal in the old mans behalf with
out his knowledge. If Mr.. Brumma-
ger, ST.. was agreeable the young man
was to return for further instructions.
He came back to report that his grand
father had been so delighted at the let
ter he had received that, notwithstand-
ing his equity foot, he had jumped from
his chair and danced about the room.
The old man had then commissioned
his grandson to carry on in his name
any further needed correspondence and
make it as loving as he could"
Mr. Keenege then placed Edwin at
a desk, stood the photograph of a very
pretty girl before him and told him to
write q PROPOSAL of marriage, carrying
out his grandsire's direction to make 1t
loving. The youngster made success
of it at the first trial, and the lawyer
dismissed him till he might have fur
Their use for him. Before closing the
door behind him Ned asked:
"By the bye, Mr.. Keenege, who is the
girl whose photograph you showed
me?'
"Why do you ask?"
Il would like to meet her"
"She is a client Of mine who must
be married or lose an estate she ex-
poets to inherit
That's interesting"
"She has no one in view, and am
looking for a husband for her."
THAT'S more interesting still"
would you like the position?'
of she is as lovely as she looks"
"Well, you are good boy. I'll think
about it"
think hard, please"
Mr.. Keenege turned to other matters,
and Ned departed with a matrimonial
bee buzzing about him. Within few
days he received a call from the law
yer to come to his Office. There he was
introduced under a false name to a
young girl who had heard the counter
part of the story told him-a young
man must have wife or lose for
tune The girl was Adele Hathaway,
and the photograph shown her was
that of Ned Brummager. After much
persuasion Adele consented to a pre-
liminary meeting with the young man
in Mr.. Keenege's office Each recog-
nized in the other the original Of a
photograph seen before. Having In
troduced them. the lawyer left them
together for an hour. When he re-
turned and saw that they had at least
not been displeased with each other he
said:

two are the heirs expectant, the one
of the Brummager. the other of the
Thistleton estate l formed plan of
saving both properties by a marriage
