Beans were holding at SITS to
$500 per hamper to the newer, and

level several weeks Notwithstanding
the heavy movement which is 100
per cent in excess of any former
year.

movement Of squash in mixed cars
has reached heavy volume, though
no straight cars of that commodity
have moved. The growers are re-
ceiving approximately so cents per
buShel, with the principal loadings
Ill the Rio Hondo section.
Shippers and growers predict that
the present loadings will be main
tanned for at least two or three
weeks notwithstanding the slump in
the cabbage market. Carolina cab
bage Is now moving onto the eastern
markets in heavy volume, indicat-
ing no recovery to a profitable level
Many Of the Valley shippers are
refusing cabbage, loadings Tuesday
going to a low level as compared
with the daily records of the past
three weeks.
The movement Of beans, pota-
toes and onions will continue heavy
at least two weeks. with the peak

ZAPATA, Tex, April 3.-When
visitors come here April 6 to cele-
brate the opening of the new in
ternational bridge, many thousands
of them will possibly not be aware
Of the fact that they are to stand
on ground that was the home or
the last tribe of Indians to occupy
lands on the Texas side of the
Mexican border. These were a
remnant of the Garlic Indians, a
Mexican tribe who remained here
until the early 80's, under a grant
issued them by the Mexican gov
eminent. 1t comprised several
thousand acres on both sides of
the Rio Grande.
When Texas joined the American
union, the majority of the Indians
crossed the Rio Grande and settled
on lands given them on the Mexi-
can side, but a few of them re-
manned in Garlic, as zapata was
known for many years after annex
alton, and in 1881 the last of these
went over to Mexico. Of the tribe
that at n time numbered sew
eral thousands, but one remains
today near the scenes of their
birth rights. She is Dona Pan
chita.
Dona Panchita was born in the
old Carrie Indian village on the
American side which afterwards
became Zapata, but which long
since has passed into oblivion. The
meandering Rio Grande swallowed
it. and the only remaining vestige
Of the town now is an island in
the middle of the river which can
be zen from the international
bridge.
Panchita claims to be the last of
her people. She claims also to be
a princess of her race; a daughter
of the last chief of her tribe. AS
proof of this claim, she holds in
fee simple 400 hectares of lands
on the Mexican side which were
the properties of her father and
the title of which were protected
by a decree of Porfiro Diaz grant,
ing to her the lands for life. She
never married but adopted a num-
Der Of Mexican children Of mixed
blood, offsprings of Carrizos and
MeXicanS, and to these children
she has willed the lands.
Dona Panchita lives in a jacal
near the end Of the bridge and
has for years been the dispenser

AT THE CAPITOL

Produced by film experts in their
respective fields, Cecil B. De Miles
latest contribution to the American
screen, THE Goddess Girl" the
story of which was written by jeanne
Macpherson, is in every sense Of the
word a masterpiece. Personally di-
rected by Mr.. De Mile for Pathe
the picture ranks as n of his fin
est efforts. 1t is dramatic, its in
vestiture massive, the theme excep-
tionally impressive. The cast is
one of the strongest ever chosen
for any photoplay. The theme is
lofty and in it's development Mr..
De Mile was at his best. THE God
less Girl is a powerful arraign-
ment of the effect of irreverence
upon present day youth and Of more
or less reprehensible practices in
modern reformatories. Although
the picture presents in graphic style
truths Of which society is amply
aware. it is no preachment, but from
start to finish, virile screen enter
tainment that will delight and
amaze film fans the world over.

Only a few Of the thousands who

farewell words of Premier Raymond
Poincare, who will speak in the
name of the French government,
General Pershing who will speak
for the American people, and
