RIO GRANDE IS TREACHEROUS
Floods Frequently Overwhelm Trav-

“No one who has seen the Rio
Grande river 'in flood is likely to for-
get the positive ferocity It seems to
display as'the waters sweep all be-
fore them” said E H Taylor of El
Paso “The flood arrives without
warning The sky may be clear
above when the traveler leisurely
jogging j acr6ss the wide channel
hears his wagon wheels grate upon
the snds beneath him and then if
he knows the river he lashes his
horse making all syeed for theoppo-
site bank He is lucky if he reaches
it in safety The chances are that
before he gets there ha hears the
roaring of waters up the channel and
sees them coming down toward him
with a front like a wall rolling for-
ward and downward as if over a fall
with a rising flood behind Many a
man and whole wagon trains have
been overwhelmed in this way and

were in such condition that after pre-
