Glenn Springs Raiders Are Reported
Badly Punished by Major Lang
horne's Men.
San Antonio, Tex, May 1S.-MaJor
General Funston received a report
from Colonel Frederick w. Sibley thai
Jesse Deemer and his colored cook,
Payne, who were carried off by MeX-
can bandits during the raid upon
Glenn Springs and Boquillas, Texas,
on the night Of May 5, have been res
cued, unframed, by the troopers under
Major G. T. Langhorne, who crossed
the border after them a week ago.
At the same time an unconrrmed
report was received from Mara hon,
Texas, that Langhorne's force OF 200
cavalrymen, pressing their pu suit,
had overtaken the bandits near La
gunda del Franco, 105 miles south OF
the border, and attacked them, Men
day, killing six Mexicans and captur-
ing seventy-fve.
The rescue of Deemer and Payne
alive, Colonel Sibley said in his re-
port, was due to the refusal OF resi-
dents of FL Paso a village where they
had been left, some ninety miles south
of the border, to carry out orders of
the bandits who had captured them,
to kill the Americans if the United
States troops should attempt their
rescue.
The bandits had left Ell Paso some
hours before the American troops ar
rived and only unarmed natives were
found in the place. Deemer and Payne,
it is understood, are being sent back
to the border.
Report of the engagement with the
bandits was taken to Marathon by a
motor truck driver connected with the
Sibley expedition. Military officers
have as yet received no word of tie
action, but in view of Major Lang,
horne's announced intention to pursue
the outlaws, they are inclined to give
it credence.
According to the truck driver, Ma
jor Langhorne received word Of the
bandits location from Mexicans at
mer and Payne, on Sunday. Guided
by friendly Mexican, forced march
was then begun. All night the horses
were urged forward.
The following afternoon, the Ameri-
cans sighted the bandits in a small
canyon near Fresno lake. They were
resting, sprawlei at full length on the
ground, their horses tethered nearly.
Major Langhorne distributed his
forces so quietly that not until the
Mexicans were surrounded did they
become aware of the American troop.

ed. A dozen made a dash for their
horses. There was a rattle of fire
from American rifles and six fell. The
rest were cowed and threw down their
arms without further resistance. The
prisoners, 1t was stated, would be
brought to Texas for trial.
Colonel Sibley, in his report, said he
was preparing to send forward as
rapidly as possible hay and grain for
the horses and mules. Colonel Sibley
sent his report from point about
forty miles south of the border.
A posse is pursuing two Mexicans
who, on Tuesday, killed Jarvis d.

horses taken from his ranch were
found some distance from his home.
It is said Harp quarreled with the
Mexicans when they stopped at his
ranch and that they then shot him,

A GREAT WORKER
IN THE VINEYARD
Rev. William A. Mckeefrey, Former
Pastor There, Is An Admirer
of Winchester.
Winchester Starr

A representative of The Star last

on a train, with the Rev. William A.

Catholic church, in Martinsburg, and
for number of years pastor Of the
Church of the Sacred Heart, in Win.
chester.
Father MsKeefrey has been a de-
lightful man ever since he reached
maturity, and he was never more de-
lightful than he Is at present lie
has a fine. Thoughtful face. and the
appearance that at once stamps the
gentleman. lie is man OF high
mentality, and so sane and refresh
ing that 1t is real pleasure to
talk with him. Religion is the big
gest thing in Father McKeefrey's life
but his religion is not of the obtru-
sive kind rather it is appealing. for
it is great thing to know so splen-
did man who is so vitality bent on
devoting his life to the service OF
the Master.
Father McKeefrey has been de
ter as he would son. He wanted
to know about everyone in the com.
munity and he paid warm tribute
to Rev. John McVerry, who succeeded
him in the pastorate OF the Church
OF the Sacred Heart, in Winchester.
He is immensely proud OF the pro-
gress that Winchester has made in
the past few years, showing especial
interest in the Handley Library and
the Handley bequest for the educa.
ton of the poor.
There are many who love this lit
tie town, but there are none whose
affection for it is deeper or more
sincere than that OF Father Mckee
frey. He is doing a great work in
Martinsburg, and the people there
love and admire him.
