We All Can Do on Our
Little Sojourn Here

Do you ever stop to think, My Friend,
When you see another's need
That 1T MIGHT BE YOU or those you love?
Do you ever give that heed?
Do you ever wonder how it would seem
To suffer as others do?
Or how it would feel were YOU the one?
And yeti might be true
When you see another who's fighting odds
That you have never known -
Do you put yourself in that others place
To struggle along alone?

Myth Of Bandera Hills May

win the Great Spirit of the red men

Will the Great Spirit of the red men
speak again this summer?
1t has been many long, eventfut
years since the Manitou of the Co
manches sent messenger to a lonely
campfire of Texas Rangers, in the
war-torn hills of Bandera Pass
And for the first time in all those
many years campfires will again be
lighted as beacons Of an army, when
the Second Division fights sham
battle on Bandera Pass this May.
And so, among the ranks of old
time Rangers-who once patroled the
Indian hunting grounds west of San
Antonio-there are fearless old men
who are secretly wondering whether
THE Woman Of the Western Star
will not come back with another mes
sage.
MYSTERY OF PAST.
The Woman Of the Western STAR
is more than q myth to the Rangers
she is the greatest mystery, to this
day, Of all their colorful, evcntfuI
lives.
According to the version credited to
the late Judge Hugh C. Duffy of Ban
dera, it was in the summer of 1874
that 8 company of Rangers camped
at Polly's Peak, near the Pass, after
they had won s'fierce battle from the
Indians. The smoke of their campfire
climbed up past the blooming yucca
trees, like incense to the round full
moon that turned the rocks and leaves
and peaks to silver.
1t was the story hour. But sudden
ly there came a silence, and the weird
beauty of a hooking birds song
trailed across the lonely canyons.
When it died away, like an echo, no
one spoke. Uneasily they glanced at
each other, sensing something that
they could not understand
And then, quite without warning, e.
beautiful Indian woman suddenly
stood in their midst-her proud head
crowned with crystal beads, her blue
robe heavy with shining beads, her
shoulders burdened with a bow OF
bois dare.
TIRED OF WAR.
MY people are tired of fighting,
she said to the silent, astounded group.
"Too many of our braves have fallen.
1 came to ask that the path between
my people and your people be again
made white! ] came alone because 1
know no fear. The Great Spirit is
my father, and the Western Star is
my home!"
She laid three polished arrows at
her feet. And then, while lightning
flashed, she vanished in a great cloud
that had enveloped Polly's Peak. The
Rangers sprang to their feet, incredu-
lous-yet all had seen. all had heard.
Next day they looked for the arrows,
but they were gone.
The Indians quit the war-path after
that for peace. No more have the
campfires Of soldiers burned in Ban
dera Pass. When they d., viii the
Woman Of the Western Star come
back?

RAILROAD BONDS
MARKET LEADERS
Vigorous Demand Makes To-
days Session of Special
interest.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
iaI Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The star.
NEW YORK. January 23.-In to-
days active and strong bond market
there were more interesting features
than is usually the case in Il short
Saturday session.
Most important among these was
the action of the Rock Island and st.
Louis-San Francisco bonds. The fixed
rate interest paying obligations Of
both these roads advanced. In the
Rock Island it was the refunding IS
which benefited the most, crossing
SO: they were higher than at any time
last year. This bond is Il short-term
issue maturing in 1884, and 50 the
yield at a price of 50 is Approximately
81 per cent, which was evidently at
traCtiVely high.
In the St Louis san Francisco list
the income 6S were the most actively
bought running up a half point. Buying
went on also in the prior lien bonds,
particularly the 5i2s.
The feature of the foreign group was
the runup in French S., which sold
above 1913 for the first time this year
and which compares with the extreme
high of 1925 Of 1906. There was no
news to account for this sudden de
velopment of interest. as other obli-
cations of the same country partici-
pated in the Improvement to only a
moderate degree.
The third characteristic of tOday's
trading was the continued vigorous
demand for the gh-grade domestic
rails and induSlrials. Baltimore and
Ohio first As at 90, made 4 new high
and there were further advances III
