 When the American newspaper au- ldience read at the breakfast table the other morning that a corps of Apache scouts had been rushed south ward into Mexico on motor trucks, the item, to the average casual reader, perhaps suggested little. Pos sibly, at most. the word Apache called to mind something of the exploits of the storied Geronimo. most famous of renegade chieftains. But to every man who has a first hand or even a secondhand acquaintance with the Apache that brief dispatch called up visions of the hounds of the desert-- Indians not of imposing height, but of restless eye, Indians that do not conform in stature to the ideals of |the story books. yet who, as Charles F. Lummis has said. have "the eye of the kite. the ear of the cat. the cunning of the fox and the tireless- ness of the gray wolf"

of Gibraltar being captured, declare the British war experts, it would first be blown into small bits.
 And (so says the inner, gossip of those who ought to know) there are two electric keys to this volcano manufactured from gun cotton and other high explosives. One electric switchboard is hidden deep down un- der the living rock below the ocean bed. That other (and second key) is far above the smiling waters of the Mediterranean, secreted in an in ner shell of stone and guarded night and day by a gray bearded non-com- missioned officer and a stern faced young lieutenant.
 Natives a Cheerful Lot
 Yet nothing of all this can be read in the cheerful faces of the scantily clad, Gibraltar natives, that curious mixture of Spanish and Moorish blood, which makes up the native in habitants of the rock. The bronzed faces of the British garrison show a certain gravity; but it Is not from any thought of Gibraltar being blown up to keep from capture. These men

ment whence sprang this superman of the trail. The average citizen knowing that the remnant of the Apaches now occupy three reserva- tions in the Southwest has it in mind that the original realm of the tribe was embraced within the confines of the present States of Arizona and New Mexico. As matter of fact, how ever, the great open-air school where in the Apaches learned the. science of scouting was of far vaster aimen- sion. It extended. indeed, from a point midway in Texas to Southern California, and from Colorado on the north far into Old Mexico on the south. It is the familiarity with Mex ico's mountain fastnesses. acquired during the period when the Apaches were on the warpath that renders the older tribesmen so valuable as scouts to any American force operating in the turbulent land to the south of us.

bine to make the average .tribesman a natural born scout. Secretiveness is not the least essential of the at tributes of the successful scout, and secretiveness has become instinctive with the Apache. The ability to melt into the brown earth and to merge with the gray rocks is his to baf- fling degree. In the old days when the ,Apaches on the warpath gave our troops so much trouble it was the first principle of the Indian fighter to fight in what we have come to know as true Indian fashion, skulking from one shelter to another and never ex- posing the smallest portion of the body. Indeed, these Indian warriors had the present-day trench fighters beaten. to a standstill in this branch of military science. This knack of capitalizing the shelter of every rock and tree has been translated into terms of modern trailing with rare efficiency.
 On top of the secretiveness of the Apache Is that marvellous perception of detail which makes for genius in trailing. On this score no white man,
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-05-21

not a mere matter of Indian legend U. s. Army officers had eloquent proof of it long years before the name of Villa was ever heard. The explana- ton is to be found, of course, in the physical training of the Apache. Born out of doors, this nomad of the South west literally spends his entire life in the open.
 No small part of the credit for the Apache's almost unbelievable powers belong unquestionably to the land which is "home' to these children of mountain and desert. NO mans land" would seem, in the estimation of the white man, phrase peculiarly appropriate to the ancestral strong hold of these "Bedouins of the New World" as they have been nicknamed. A more repellant region than it was in the heydey of the Apache tribes it would be difficult to imagine, but it was the worlds rough hand as ad- ministered by nature in her severest mood that made for many of the traits that caused the Apache to be feared and dreaded for long fearsome years in domain larger than all Europe, excepting Russia.
 The Wilderness Whence Sprang the Apache
 In order to have ability to appre- ciate what the twentieth century Apache scout is doing for the present. day American army it may be we'll to look for moment at the environ

the famous campaign against the lpr dian bandit who made more history than any other one man of his race. Furthermore, it is a safe guess that none of the various U. S. Army cam paigns against the Apaches would have proven successful and the rene gades of the tribe would never have been brought to respect Uncle Sam's authority, had it not been for the aid rendered the U. s. troopers by friendly Apache scouts.
 It has been these friendly scouts, working side by side with the whites. in many campaign against their own people who have attested the posses sion of those rare talents which have caused our army officers to have such wholesome respect for Apache trail- CTS and to confidently. proclaim them "the best trailers in the world"
 As will be noted from the accom- panying pictures, the Apache scout in the service of the U. s. Army boasts costume that may in some cases con- form to conventional military stand ards, but is more often strange mix ture of regulation army raiment with remnants of the habiliments of the savage. A modern rife is an invari5- ble accompaniment of the scouts sar- torial outfit. Long ago the Apache manifested weakness for firearms of the finest quality. It was said in the days when the renegades were on the warpath in Arizona that the Apaches were better armed than their official pursuers. and that the redmen carried the best field glasses in the South west That policy persists with the average Apache who in the role of a U. s. scout must stand ever ready to play the game single-handed with | fate

A wonderful system of vast caverns in the heart of the rock has been con- structed, whereby the rainwater runs off parts of the upper rocks, which have been cemented smooth.
 This water is conducted far down below the surface of the ground into immense rock caverns. where the water Is cooled and preserved. Food and powder there is in plenty. but the water must come from rain, which is none too plentiful. It is said that suf- ffcient water for the Gibraltar garri- son is hidden inside the heart of the rocks to last the soldiers a whole year. Food for three years is likewise stored in the rockhewn Repositories of the military authorities.
 Aerial Railway on Cables
 So much for Gibraltar, the key to the Mediterranean, under war condi- tions. The Gibraltar of more pleas ant days is delightful place to stop. Over It's mighty rocks, there is climb ing sufficient to test the nerves of any Alpine or Rocky Mountain enthusiast
 From the very center of the public park there runs a double steel cable reaching a thousand feet into the air, where the cable ties into enormous cement anchors. This is the aerial railway by which food is sent up to the artillery men, the signal watches and those other more secret guards that hover night and day around the most vital military features.
 The cars swing dizzily from side to side and make the soldiers sea-sick. when the guards are changed. Only picked men are allowed up there at all: only the choicest of the chosen go in certain places. In one place, the watch is never changed, and there is no such thing as leave to be had. Curiously enough men are jealous of the honor of serving there; and, if he succeeds his comrades speak of him as of a superior order of human be- ing, watching over the safety of ordf- nary humanity.
 Prices Fixed By Authorities Men never speak of g. full dinner pair' in Gibraltar; yet every soul lives on the full "tin-can;" for canned good.

Cor "tinned" as the Brttisher calls it) forms the important part of every dinner table. Prices are fixedJby the military authorities, so that there are no 'bargains'' to be had In food-stuffs. But on the other hand neither do prices go way up out of sight. as would otherwise be the case.
 Famous Prison Camp
 The most vitally interesting spot on Gibraltar rock is of course the pris- oners' camping ground. It's the one place most thought of and least talked about by wise people. The prisoners camp Is high up on top the great rock in & natural gully. In 1t are all sorts of manners of men. Some are known enemies, some are only suspected and 8 few, very few, are prisoners cap tured in open fighting.
 There has never been known but one successful attempt to escape from this extraordinary place. Two prisoners with outside help obtained long rope and climbed down sixty feet of the hundred feet reaching to a sloping bank, from whence escape to a boat would have been possible The rope
  ing fatally injured. They rolled down the cliff to the waiting boat, which rowed away with the two dying forms. Nothing would have been known. but for the rope found later and which the escaping men had intended to let down after them. An investigation showed the whole story.
 The photographs show the princi- pal features of the fortress, so far as military necessity will permit of. Roaming around with a smuggled camera might easily mean a sudden and violent death.
 The clear cut features of the big rock, the Military Governors palace. the peaceful and beautiful park. the triple harbor of Gibraltar are featured in the photographs. The real mean ing of Gibraltar can only be glimpsed from the beetling, grim cliffs. tower ing over the tiny town and throwing a commanding shadow over the nar- row waters of the furthest west of the Mediterranean sea.

may any day be sent to the war front, where their chances for life are al- most zero as compared to any danger on The Rock. s
 No thought of danger can be seen in the jolly faces of the sturdy British sailors, enjoying brief stay ashore. They throng the crooked narrow main street of Gibraltar-all uphill until it starts going straight up in the air. The little staurants-mostly in the open air-shut up at ten o'clock and the average sailor roams the streets until midnight singing.
 The sturdy little rock policemen, with handy looking revolvers, swing ing under their right hands, seldom do more than speak a quieting word. The revo1vers are caught by service strap to their right wrists. At mid- night the rock-police shoo the sailor men into their lodging houses with no real trouble and little noise.

Gibraltar, the tourist Is an eyesore, and an affront. He comes ashore in
 a small boat and passes under the
 watchful eyes of many guards.
 He must show his baggage and if
 he has the smallest known camera he must give it up to the military
 official, whose tiny wooden shed stands
 on the right of the stone gateway leading into the main street of Gi-
 braltar. Also he must show his pass
 port every time he is asked, which is often, in many cases
 So that touring Gibraltar Is not
 what it used to be and If you think to spend over 24 hours, you must get

 individual, the Governor of The Rock, and it takes a mighty good reason for spending two nights in Gibraltar nowadays.

even though fortified by the experi- ence of lifetime in scouting. has ever proven the peer of the best Apache trailers. The latter are alike at home in following a scent over rocky hillsidss and through mazes of Apaches demonstrated an ability to detect footprints so faint that none of the white men of the average scout ing party had been able to discover their presence, but they have piled miracle upon miracle by figuring how long time had elapsed since such a faint print was made.
 The Apache is emphatically an in- dividualist which makes, of course, for the ideal scout. He needs no leader, he worries not over lack of counsel and advice, he suffers not from loss of companionship. Self-sufficient and self-reliant, keeping his own counsel, he plays a lone hand in a masterly manner. To surmise how in- advisable is the solitary Apache bent on sleuthing, it is but necessary to recall how invisible in. the old days were the banded Apaches on the war path. For instance, during the raid of Ulzana and his band in the autumn of 1885, the Apache warriors were on the rampage for seven weeks, during which time they killed thirty eight persons. Yet during that entire time the troops and civilians that were con- stantly in pursuit never caught sight of so much as a single member of the raiding band.
 I'railcrs, Tried and True
 When the man on the street read a after an unbroken ride of sixty miles from Fort Apache to Holbrook, Ari- zona, had executed war dance and joined in the pursuit of Villa. he may have wondered whether this was not a new idea-this employment of the bloodthirsty Apaches as scouts for the U. S. Army. As a matter of fact. however, the practice constitutes no novelty at all. The Apache has long since won his spurs as U. s. Army scout even though the present-day Ecitizen has forgotten or overlooked the fact.
 Truth to tell. every one of the twen ty Apaches who were hurried to Mex ico when the advance of the U. S. Regulars was hampered by false in- formation given by Mexicans. fought either with or against Geronimo in
