tsrtciAL TO the rELHeRAhi
WASH1NGTON,May 19.-The recent
raid Of Mexican bandits in the Big
Bend district. as the territory in the
vicinity OF Glenn Springs. Tex, Is CALI
ed, has resulted in the dispatch of pur-
suing troops across the border at a
point opposite the village Of BoQuillas,
a settlement OF thirty.five people, ac-
cording to the census of 1910, $50 miles
southeast Of FL Paso. Heretofore the
American punitive expedition has been
confined to Chihuahua. but now Coahu-
lila also is to be searched for marau-
ders. The state on the Mexican border
is described in the following war geo
graphy bulletin issued today by the
National Geographic Society from It's
headquarters In Washington.
"lf extent Of territory were the only
consideration the American troopers
now In pursuit OF the bandits guilty of
the Glenn Springs outrage would have
an easier Task searching Coahuila than
those who are hunting for Villa and his
men. for, although in size 1t is the
third state in the Mexican republic,
1t is only three-fourths as large as
Chihuahua. It's area Is equal to that
Of New York, Delaware and Maryland
combined. but ranks only sixteenth in
population emong the states Of the
nation. with about as many people as

the following Interesting legend Ia
told: AT the close OF the century
marked the conquest Of Mexico by the
Spaniards the Virgin Mary appeared
miraculously before an Indian on the
hill Of Guadalupe and babe him tell
his bishop to build shrine on that
spot. The Indians message was disre-
garded on two occasions. but when the
Virgin appeared a third time before
her messenger she gave him symbol,
telling him to gather some flowers
growing on the hillside, and take them
to the bishop. These flowers the In
dian wrapped in his "tilma'. When he
reached the churchman the blossoms
had disappeared and in their stead, on
the inner folds OF the ixile fibre blan-
ket there was revealed the face OF the
Virgin in glowing colors. Just as the
imprint of the Savior's face remained
indelt5ly on the kerchief of st. veron-
lea. The blanket hangs today under
a tabernacle, OF silver and, gold, in the
shrine built by the bishop, and the COL
ors have remained comparatively fresh
for three centuries.

Eouinoctial Storms.

The widespread belief in the eX-

stitions If the equinoctial storm Is
defined as rainstorm. lasting at least
three DAYS and occurring within two
or three days Of the 21st Of September
then there is very seldom year wher
several euuinoctial storms do not occur.
The reason for the belief in an equi-
noctial storm is probobly the fact that
about this time of the year the hrst
storms of the winter type, with stead
lily falling precipitation, make their APP
pearance. They stand in sharp con :
trast to the summer type with the
sultry weather and thunder showers

The Creek Path.

The nath came out of the woods to
meet us and led us cleverly along It's
whimsical way to the banks of the
creek. 1t was raining. and although
there are times when the rain is unde-
sired, and seems to be useless. it is al
ways pleasant to go with the path I'M
der the trees along the creek in the
rain. Except for a bit of a complain
ing corn field, which came in sight now
and then, nobody out there cared about
the rain at all. The trees surely en-
joyed it. and the birds fused about
their nests as costly as though hoUe
were a pleasant place to be on such a
day. Up and down the banks the path
went, through clinging masses of shin
ing wild shrubs. through silent dark
places beneath great high -limbed trees.
Now and then it ran under a fallen log
and we slid over the top and met it on
the other side. 1t passed at least a
million interesting things, and stopped
to show us a few of them. One of it's
curiosities was an old sycamore tree
that leaned far out over the water. The
trunk was hollow, and at the foot of
the tree was a hole. Inside the hole
we could see an old boiler pipe, twice
as large as the hole ir diameter, and
we could not guess how the pipe got
into the tree. The path showed us
logs that were turning into the soil

1t showed us strange flowers and
stranger insects. and led us close to a
bush where three fUssy baby Wrens
