Realitos Fob 2 It was early in the
morning last Saturday when the last of tho
rangers at Camp Mabry noar Alice threw
themselves on their horses and started out
on what they firmly believed to be a final
and successful assault on the stronghold of
Garzas forces in the midst of the wilder-
ness of mesquite and prickly pear which
fill the country all south of the Mexican
National railroad
A heavy fog clung liko a veil over the faco
ol tho earth and like phantoms the little
cavalcado flitted off over the undulating
prairie accompanied by no sound but tho
jingle of spurs and the rattlo of bridles and
bits The whito tents of the camp faded
into the fog behind The fleecy folds were
flung softly back to let them through as
tney advanced then fell as softly back
again and they were gone
On to Palito Blanco where they were
joined by a small detachment of United
States soldiers and then they proceeded
south for a few miles the soldiers taking a
road to the right while the rangers rode on
into tho wilderness
Night found tnem a short distance from
IySlerialis ranch whero a camp was made
ar an old sheep corraL The scouts had
0 incnes j reportcclo suspicious tracks and suspicious
sounds had been heard All fully antici-
pated some excitement before morning yet
all gathered about the camp firo and ate
heartily of the excellent supper which Old
Pete hustled about and prepared by the
time the horses were cared for After
supper the laugh and joke went round with
a lighthearted abandon vfondcrful to be
hold under the circumstances and it was
fully ten oclock when tho guards were
posted and after repeated caution from the
careful captain that thero should bo no ac
JdDntal shooting each other in the event of
an attack tho boys retired to their well
earned rest
It was tho fortune of Tnn Gazette cor-
respondent to share blankets with a broad
jStouUlered gentlemanly young fellow
jj hnm tho others called Will but who is
known to evildoers of this section as
Sheeley that deputy He is not
young
s member of the rangers but hearing that
therowas fun on hand ho camo along to
ojrioy it
sjUnder the leo of his comrades broad
back with tho stars twinkling above the
writer soon sank to sleep
It was the crack of a gun several sharp
reports
Lookinj around1 saw most of tho
MEX WERE GONE
and in a moment a rattling far among tho
brush a couplo of miles away convinced mo
thifca light was on
Two or three of tho company had re
mained behind and I agreed with them
when they answered my inquiries as to the
shooting by saying it was better to attack
than be attacked
F One by one the absentees returned and
all retired to thoir beds
In the morning wo were all on hand to
breakfast all and one more Tho naw
conlcr was a gentleman clad In a pair of
blue overalls a cotton shirt and a brown
coat Ou his head was the crown of a hat
on with a red handkerchief while his
were incased in a pair of sandals held
place by leather thongs tied about his
et and nikles He didnt havo much to
Jhjs substauce of his remarks when I
rsed with him being chiefly confined
aa elevation of the eyebrows a shrug of
shoulders
and the words no con-
e He evinced a great respect for the
bo vs who were detailed to see that tho hos-
pitalities of the camp were at his service
and ho promptly obeyed their every sngv f
jrestion especially when tho motions wereL
made with a Winchester

THE GAZETTE ET WOBTH TEXAS THURSDAY EEBEU4EY L
me into this city from San
ex yesterday Ho has been
ild countries which Garzas
hjfve been devastating and tells of a
j escape from a band of Greasers
e thinks were under Garza
t a week befafChristmas Mr Bcn
says he w3riding along an uufrc
ted cojwiry path in Duval county It
minutes before sunset when
round a bend in the path ho came
suddenly upon a half dozen Mexicans The
crowd was evidently drunk and no sooner
saw Mr Baker than they began firing at
him Turning his hors > e Mr Baker stuck
the spurs into him and rode for his life
The Mexicans came after him shouting
like mad and firing at every jump Qne
bullet took off Mr Bakers hat and another
plowed a furrow in his cheek The chase
lasted for probably half an hour The
Mexicans stopped firing and settled down
in hard earnest to capture him Finally
Mr Baker heard a rope whistle throuch
the air and knew it was a lasso He
warded off a few blow3 but one settled
over him and in a twinkle he was Jerked
off his horse and was sprawling on the
ground The fall knocked the wind out of
him but broke no bones
As soon as the other greasers came up
they gathered about Mr Baker and began
going through his pockets TheyJ took
what little money ho had and his gold
watch treating him very brutally during
the time hittng and kicking him There
was a consultation then held about what to
do with him Mr Baker says he could not
tell what they were talking about but
hpard Garzas name mentioned frequently
At last a decision was arrived at He was
motioned to go over and stand by a tree
and then the Mexicans grabbing him began
to tie him to the tree with a leather thong
After binding him so hs could hardly move
tho Mexicans mounted and rode away
After struggling until struggling seemed
useless MrBaker says ho settled down to
the belief that his only chance for escape
lay in tho hope of some traveler passing by
As he was out of the Ijeaten path this
seemed like a forlorn hope Ho spent tho
night in perfect terror When morning
came it only served to force upon him tho
hopelessness of his situation After shout-
ing until his throat was so parched and
sore that he could not articulate ho gave
up in despair and weak from lack of food
and water with every Done aching with
pain feeling tho leather thong cut into his
llesh in a dozen different places made up
his mind just to wait for tho end hoping
that it would come soon
About midnight of tho second night Mr
Baker says he dozed off for a few minutes
and when he waked up he felt the thong
slipping from him He did not believe it
at first and thought that he must be dream-
ing but it slipped further and further
down and then he attempted to raise bis
arm It was so stiff that ho could hardly
move it but when he felt that there was
nothing binding him ho staggered away
from the tree and fell fiat a few feet from
it The ropo had in some way como untied
He lay there until morning and then find-
ing his horse close by managed to mount
him and make his way to tho path He
discovered a house after riding a couple of
hours Ho spent twentyfour hours there
and then made his way to San Antonio
Mr Baker says he recovered entirely ex-
cept the use of his left arm which seems
paralyzed Ho is here to consult with
some specialist in regard to it It seems
that this arm was bound so tightly to the
tree that the thongs cut into it deeply Mr
Baker says that it feels absolutely dead
but physicians hero think it enn be cured
probably remain until the war is over
unless he attempts to escaps If he at-
tempts to escape however any man who
knows the Texas rangers can tell you where-
to look for him Robert J Bbowx
