In the rocky but pleasant little valley of the Rio Florido, in the state of Chi huahua, not far from the station of Cor ralitos m the Mexican Central railwaj-, there may be seen the ruins of what 50 years ago was the magnificent manor honse or hacienda of a Urge rancho. There, too, were raised the strong, black bulls for the arenas of Chi huahua and the lower provinces of Mexico. The gateway to this once fa mous place, although dilapidated and thrown down, has not yet crumbled into dust, but still shows the m irks cf its former 6plendor.. On the left rida of the entrance, about 300 feet distant from the broad road which led to tho stately mansion, side by side, are two wooden crosses roughly fashioned out of oak logs, on both of which with care may still be traced a rudely carved inscrip tion. The words are in that crude Mexico-CastUian language common to the country. That on the right as yen face the line of what was once the fence l surrounding the grounds of the haci enda invites tho passerby to offer: "One ave maria and a pater noster for the repose of the soul of Ysabel Mora. who fell by the hands of the Indians on the 11th day of October in the year 1S4.1. in the Bower of her youth and beauty." On the other: "Here lies Juan Maria Orteza. native of , killed by the Indians on the 11th of October, 1S45. Christian, for thessie of God, pray for him. The 6tory of the young girl and young man who lie under these rudelv hewn crosses is a sail one and absolutely true. The rancho de Cadena is about half way between tho cities of Durango and Chi huahua. It nourished 50 years ago under the careful management of its owner, an aged Mexican known all over tho region as "El Coxo" (the game leg). He was a widower, with a family of eight sons, each of whom was an expert in the ex citing games of the country "Colea de tores," or the more cruel and barbarous pastime of "El g&llo." "Colea de toros" in plain English is bull tailing that is, seizing the boil in Before the return of Escamilla to Ca dena Juan Maria was always the first at "El gallo" and "Colea de toros," and had ever laid his trophies of the sport nt the feet of tho bewitching Ysabel. At a "gallo" in December, four mouths before the arrival of Escamilla, Ysabel was wooed and in a measure won by the presentation of the remains of a guliaut rooster at tho hands of Juan Maria, who, his offering being well received, from that moment looked npon the beautiful girl as his sweetheart. When, however, Escamilla took up his abode at the hacienda again, h. too much of an exquisite to work with his brothers and father in the great pas tures, finding plenty of time on his hands for courting, supplauted Juan in tho af fections of the young girl. Aa Juuu's nature was superior in frankness and open heartednesa. he refrained from forcing his suit, and the affair was con cluded by a day being set for the mar riage of Ysabel and Escamilla. In honor of the occasion it was deter mined to have a grand bull fight, at which all the neighbors within a radius of 100 miles were to be present. Tho morning before tho ceremony was to be performed "El Coso," with all his sons, excepting Escamilla, who remained be hind to attend upon his affianced Ysabel, started out into the great pastures for the purpose of driving in tho immenro black bulls required for tho sport, while other neighboring raucheros basted them selves in building stout corrals in which to secure them until the time arrived to lead them into the arena. Toward evening, while the mesquite grass lay cold and gray under the shad ows of the mountains, Escamilla and the happy Ysabel left their hammocks on the wide gallery of the bonss, where they had been resting during the sultry hours, j snial dimensions to take a walk ulong the main trail lead ing toward the rocky hills. When they reached a point half a ruilo from the gate of the hacienda, where a thicket of chapparal bounded each side of the road, suddenly there arose a clond of dust in front of them. "Here come the bull fighters." ex claimed Ysabel, as she withdrew her waist from the encircling arm of her lover; "let us go back to the house." "Oh, no," replied Escamilla, "perhaps they are my father and brothers. Yes, there are eight; lookT But what the poor girl really saw, with hnr frw almost starting from their sock- eta and motionless with fear, as she rec- i month ojrnized them now only a few hundred Hill at ! yards awav, was a band of Comanches. j naked to the waist, painted horribly and brandishing their lances. In a moment, heedless of the helpless maid at his side, the coward Escamilla turned and fled down the trail toward the rancho, shout ing as he ran: "Los barbsros! Los bar barosr In a few rods a horseman met him. It was his brother Juan Maria. Ue had : caught a young antelope with bis lasso ' and was riding ahead of his party to pre ' sent it to Ysabel.

The game is played on horse back, all, starting together, strive to reach the bird first, and seizing it by the peck try to break the strings that hold it and ride off with the prize. The well greased neck generally slips through the fingers of the first who grasps it, but as soon as one finds himself in possession he rides off pursued by the rest, whose object is to rescue the fowL Of conrse in the exciting contest which ensues the bird is torn to pieces. Then the fortu nate possessor of the bleeding morsels presents them to his lady love as a gage d'amonr. The eight sons of "El Coio" were con ceded to be the bravest, the handsomest and the best in handling the lasso of any young men in the state of Chihuahua. Their experience from boyhood as va qneros or herdsmen on their father's vast pastures oad made them as used to sit ting on a horse as in a chair, and the character of the fierce bulls which were raised on the ranch expressly for the are nas of the City of Mexico inspired them with the brave nature of the famous ani- i mals themselves. Residing with the family was a yonng girl, a ward of "El Coxo," an orphan ' and the daughter of a friend and class mate at school. Ysabel Mora was in : 1845 but 16 years old a very pretty, black eyed, black haired girl, the "toast of both the valley of Rio Florido and of the valley of Kazos. Her extreme love liness oven hud been the talk of the great fair held in San Bartolomo. Escamilla, the third son of "El Coxo," .was just 20, stood 5 feet 10 in his shoes, was as straight as an arrow and as lithe some as the reeds that grew on the mar gin of the lagoons on the ranch. He was better educated than the rest of his broth ers, both in a practical sense and in the usages of the best society the republic afforded, as he had attended two or three terms at school in the City of Mexico, the great capital of the 'great nation to which he belonged, and which ho be lieved to be tho best on earth. In his first bull fight after his return from the metropolis, ho made his appearanco in the arena in a most elaborate suit, fash ioned from the reigning style at the cap ital, creatitnj a surprise among his own sex that bordered upon jealousy and a furore among those of the opposite. He distinguished himself further by throw ing three bulls successively. Escamilla's rival in good looks and ex pertness in the bnll ring was his brother Juan Maria. in fact, there were many of the people of tho Rio Florido, both old vaqneros ' and young maidens, who thought Juan far surpassed Escamilla in manliness at least if not in personal beauty. He certainly equaled him in horsemanship, simply lacking perhaps some of that' "brilliancy of execution" which Escamilla ad acquired in the City of Mexico. The subscription for tiie purpose of sending the little Her girls to the orphan's home, is progressing. Ten dollars was yet wanting when your correspondent saw the paper.

The others, terrified at tho fierce look of the brave Mexican, keeping at a re spectful distance from him, assailed him with a shower of arrows, and in an instant he was bleeding from a score of terriblo wounds. Still the gallant Juan fought bravely, hoping against hope, and was soon encouraged by the shouts of his father and six brothers, whose homes were on the dead run to the rescue. The old man and his sons rode up in time to see Juan fall from his horse, pierced by a feathered shaft just above his breast. "El Coxo" and his boys fought with desperate courage to avenge the murder of Ysabel and Juan. Half a dozen of the Comanches were soon made to ''bite the dust," but two of the Mexicans also lay dead npon the now reddened sod. The rancheros came up in a short time from the hacienda in force, compelling the Indians to retreat, but as night was now npon them tho Mexicans wero obliged to abandon pursuit. On the ground lay the still quivering body of the unfortunate Ysabel and near her the two Indians killed by the gallant Juan Maria. Juan was quite dead, SO arrows having pierced him. Two of his brave brothers were seriously wounded, and six of the savages were killed, be sides those who fell by the avenging arm of Juan. Sadly the bodies of Ysabel and Juan Maria were borne in tho darkness to tho hacienda by the rancheros, whence both were buried next day, side by sido, at the very hour when the marriage ceremony was to have been performed. Escamilla, ashamed of his cowardice, disappeared. It was supposed ho went to the City of Moxico, married thore and purposely kept -the knowledge of his whereabouts a secret. New York Recorder.
