(From a Staff Correspondent.)
MADERO'S MOUNTAIN CAMP, Near
Cludad, Jaures. April 22. (Special Corre
spondence. ) It's the afterglow of day and
Inside a rock gorge cut out of the solid
hills, hundreds of men loaded down with
cartridge belts are moving about, building
fires, each man -for himsflf. Ian flanked
horses are tethered everywhere over the
still hot, cactled sands There is little
noise, though, much confusion. To one
side seated on a gunny sack with his back
against a rough rock, alts a diminutive
man with black whiskers. He looks much
as though one were looking at General U.
S. Grant, through a reversed field glass.
It Is Francisco I. Madero, Jr., provisional
president of Mexico In his camp in the
hills five miles outside of Juarez.
The shadows lengthen suddenly and be
fore It 1 realised it Is night. Utile brush I
wood fires flicker all about, while men
huddle ovr them and cook frljoles. Only
a smalt portion of the lnsurrecto strength
Is here, for far out over the foothills one
sees other spark ot light. Bright stars
shine down and baptise the scene In the
chasm, and to the north the belching
flame of the El Paso smelter lend a glow
to the now vague skyline of the mountains.
No war setting could be more romantic
or melodramatic. Of course, the other
leader were there, Raoul Madero and
Oulseppl Garibaldi. All are as democratic
as could be imagined and the conversation
touched on many subjects, as we sat on
rocks higher In the gorge and smoked Mex
ican cigarette.
Garibaldi a Good Fellow.
Garibaldi Is the really likeable fellow of
all. He Is a hail fellow, well met and
seems to have more Influence everywhere
than any one else. Men Jump when he
speaks, though I fancied htm severe at
time. As the hour grew later and the
mountains emphasized the darkness, I
spoke of returning to tawn. Garibaldi ad
vised against It and kicked around among
the men until he found a blanket. Then
he pointed to the surrounding country and
said, "Take your choice of the beds." I
Insisted upon trying the trip and Mike
Brennan, the fighting Irishman who was
In the fight at Agua Prleta a few days ago,
also longed for a good bed.
All of this was on my first visit to the
camp. Yesterday I guided Frederick Cook,
the arctlo explorer, out through the in
surrecto line and Introduced him to Fran
, J mwA u..,n (h. man
who discovered the north pole. The men
passed compliment back and forth with
machine gun rapidity, but the little gen
eral of Spanish desoent with his suave
politeness won the day. Garibaldi had
asked to meet Dr. Cook, but when we
arrived he was with his men In the hills.
Vlsltlaar with Insnrrectoe.
For the last three day Insurrectos have
been seen along the Rio Grande, coming
out of the mountains to water their horses.
Down to the bank they came, carrying
rifle and loaded down with belts of
Mauser cartridges strung about their bod
ies and over their shoulders. All carried
canteens and bottle and waded Into the
stream and filled them with the heavily
siltod water that courses down from the
mountains but to the men who drink this
water the silvery Rio Grande must be a
sandy Joke. The smelter cars from Ed
Paso, which run along the river for four
miles, have been loaded every day with ex
cursion crowds, with lunches and binocu
lars, anxious to see the rebel. Thousands
ot them line the river on the American side
and shout 'Viva Madero" until they are
hoarse. Once in a while an American ap
pears amongst the lnsurrecto and shouts
across for some one to throw htm some
ham and eggs. The presence of the Ma
dero army in the hill has been made a
continual holiday and pop wagon men and
all kind of vender have taken advantage
of the trade opportunity. Sportive young
men, rebelling at the thought ot men
drinking the muddy water of the river,
buy a doren bottles of pop and throw It
across the now narrow stream. And how
the rebels do fight for them. All the world
like boys tn the street fighting for pennies.
But if they fight for ordinary, plebeian
pop, you should see them scramble for a
plug ot chewing tobacoo.
"Doc" Wilson's Aid.
I had been trying to locate Madero'
camp for a couple of day without suc
cess, and Brennan, the lnsurrecto, and
myself were on our way to the foot bridge
across the river below the smelter on the
American side, determined to cross over
and find what we could find. Accidentally
w fell In with Dr. J. L. Wilson, head of
the lnsurrecto Red Cross, with five Red
Cross reerult, all wearing the Insignia upon
their arms and carrying great bundles.
Dr. Wilson has been with the Insurrectos
all through the war and has given first
aid and performed operations on many
battlefields. "Doc" 1 a happy, good
natured big fellow, and gladly agreed to
act as guide and inquired If we had our
walking shoe on, as there was consider
able pedal work before we would reach
the camp. Than I began to ask "Doc"
about himself. He was born In Meadvllle,
Pa., and after his college days, played
first base with the Pittsburg, New York,
Philadelphia and Baltimore teams In the
National league between 18S8 and 1891. He
was called "Spike" Wilson and "Doo" ad
mits hs was a pretty fair ball tosser.
Lately h has been located at Tulsa, Okl.,
and joined the lnsurrecto army at the first
rumor of war. With him as recruits were
Dr. O. V. Nelson of San Diego, Ca.; C. L.
Grass of Madison, Wis.; Z. C. Bryant of
6t Louis, who much to "Doc's" disgust
bragged that he was a nephew ot Andrew
Carnegie; F. T. McGee of St. Louts and
Jose Martlnes of Mexico City.
Satisfying Unrle Sam
We cut In through a duster of squatty
adobe houses where the pigs and naked
chidren ran loose together and came to the
river's edge, where a brown conical tent
told the khaki boys were on the Job. The
soldiers looked through all the bundles and
after feeling all over us for concealed
weapons or ammunition allowed us to climb
up on the suspension bridge that cradles
the river with wobbly strength and we
crossed Into Mexico. Straight ahead was
another group of adobe houses at the foot
of a great rocky cliff scarred by the
erosion of many year and a short distance
off a skeleton white monument that marks
the boundary between New Mexico and
Mexico. We struck off through ths
blistering sand, that mushed at each step
1 almost to the shoe tops, down along the
river until we reached a rocky ledge above
the river that compelled us to proceed In
single tils. All the way, as we stumbled
over boulder and brushed aside the thorny
' mesquite, Doo talked of life In camp and
i expatiated particularly upon Garibaldi
I saying "There ia one prince of a fellow.'
As though in ths nature of an afterthought
Doc said: "I forgot to tell you, but when
' once you get In camp you can never tell
i when you will get away. It may be
l Madero will you keep you a week or two.
j Than again be might let you go ia on
! day." 'That didn't sound much b-tter than '
1 some soprano polos I have heard, but
determined to fee It through Hlty how
From t ine to time we met fugitive- groups
; of Insiinci to heavily armed and Doc
gil.bered to all of them.
I first lew of I snip,
I When we had proceeded alMiut tw-o miles
! and the packs were getting heavier and !
I heavier. Doc sent an lnsurrecto hack to,
I camp cn hot-e hack to tell Garibaldi to i
end out a couple ni ntiSKirs 10 carry inc.
pack the rest of the way to ramp- After
a time they arrived and the rest, of the
trip was less laborious. Emerging from
the rocky ledge we went onto the open j
sand and climbed up and down and finally ,
dropped Into a valley and walked In a deep
arroyo and then suddenly burst upon the j
camp. j
But before we reached the camp a parly j
of troopers, well conditioned on sleek
horses, about thirty of them, with a trim
young man riding at their head overtook
us. This was Madero's body Kuard and
the young man at their head was Raoul
Maritru. Doc hulled him and he drew up
and I was Introduced. He spoke excellent t
English and gnve me every assurance of I
his great pleasure. He wore a red, while 1
and green band around his w ide hat. Ills j
heavy rifle rested In a scabbard on his '
saddle and a beautiful pearl-handled Colt's I
revolver peeked boldly out of his holster. 1
Then he and his party, all of whom wore
big, straw charro hats, with high peaks
and turned up all around, galloped off to
the camp In the gorge.
Picturesque Is the only word that ap-
proches the description of the camp. It was
sight never to be forgotten. In every di
rection men swarmed on the hills and far
across the sage brush hills in a pass a file
of men could be seen passing In single file.
In the camp proper the varl-colored xarapes
of the soldiers, spread out on mesquite
bushes, gave the one touch of color to the
drab scene. There was no stacking of arms
and the lack of any semblance of organi
zation struck me as most significant.
Madero Rosy at Work.
As we came up to the camp I recognized
Francisco Madero seated on a rock looking
over some blue prints with several men. I
was given to understand these were draw
ings of the fortifications of Juarez. I also
at once recognized Gulseppi Garibaldi, who
looked Jaunty, with his black velvet hat,
turned down all around, as he gave direc
tions to a group of soldiers. He hailed Doc
Wilson as we approached and when we
came up I met the Italian soldier of for
tune. I found him all that Doc had de
scribed him. After stopping and chatting
with Raoul for a moment he took me over
and Introduced me to Francisco. The little
man rose quickly and extended hi left
hand. His right Is still sore as a result
of the wound received at the battle of
Casaa Grandes. He removed his broad hat
with Its band of red, white and green and
I snatched my own cap from my head as
with a difficult Spanish dialect he as
sured me of his very great pleasure. I
chatted with him . for a time, but could
understand only a little of what he said. I
then withdrew and Garibaldi and Raoiil
Madero entertained Mike and I with ac
counts of various battles and the death of
Captain Crelghton.
On the Way Back.
It was after 10 o'clock at night when
Mike and I started back to civilization.
Many of the fires had died down to glow
Ins embers. The moon had risen and
threw a soft light over all. Looking back-,
ward as we walked along the arroyo the
camp looked like a gypsy camp. It might
have been the bivouac of a band of roy
sterlng knights of four centuries ago. As
we approached Hhe river In the still night
from the top of tlie hill I looked down.
and then knew why the meandering stream
below was called the silvery Rio Grande.
Only once did we encounter a picket suf-
flcently .curious to stop us; That was
when we were climbing along the ledge in
the dark, and a voice nearby shouted.
Alto." We stopped, saluted and gave
the password; "Madero and Gonzales" and
were aiowed to proceed without further
trouble. The adobe house along the bank
seemed more than usually grotesque as the
candle light streamed out of the few
windows. Dogs of every degree BDrana-
from unknown beds and ran yelping at
our heels.
Madero's Chief Lieutenant.
With early morning yesterday I was
again In the camp, making the trip this
time alone. Dr. Cook had delivered a
lecture In El Paso the night before and the
Insurrectos hoped he would pay them a
visit. Garibaldi declared If Cook ever
started north again that he was xolnir
With him. Garibaldi Is not quick to talk
about himself, but off to one side he admit
ted that this was his fourth ramnaian.
He was through the Engllsh-Boer war, the
Turkey-Graco war, through the trouble In
Venezuela and now mixed In the Mexican
imbrolio. I guessed his age as 36. His
face was covered with several days' beard,
but he coyly admitted only 30 years.
Raoul Madero told me he was one of a
family of thirteen. He said he graduated
from the Michigan college of Mine at
Houghton, Mich., on the fifth of last No
vember. He has never been In the Mis
souri river stages, but said his brother.
Evarlsto, attended the agricultural school
at Ames, Ia.
Just' a Drink of Water.
A few days before, when I saw the ragged !
soldier of the rebellion filling canteens
with river water, I vowed to myself I would
have to be pretty thirsty to drink It. But
as the day progressed I grew thirstier and
thirstier. It came noon and Francisco in
sisted that I take a sandwich. We all sat
on the rocks, munching a twentieth cen
tury sandwich even to the pickle and
Raoul Madero asked me to come down and
have a3rlnk. I could almost hear a chunk
of ice bumping around In the water and
then came the reality of war. Raoul took
the lid from a box and dipped a tin cup
Into a chocolate colored fluid, which I
knew to be river water. With true Span
ish politeness he offered me the cup. For
about two minutes we gastoned about, I
all the time trying to frame a plausible
excuse why my thirst had left me and I
had to take the cup. I shut my eyes and
gulped and kept on gulping, but oh, It
was filled to the brim. I knew this 'water
had to be carried laboriously a long dis
tance from the river and I could not
empty half of the liquid on the ground.
Finally I handed the empty cup back to
the chivalrous rebel, vowing I would
never be trapped again.
Old Doc Cook's Visit.
In ths afternoon I returned to Y.l Paso
and was Introduced to Dr. Frederick A.
Cook at a local hotel. I told him of the
desire of the Insurrectos and he a.sked me
to guide him through the lines. He said
he could stilt hit the trail.
We started out and the heat of the semi-
tropical sun must have contrasted Strang. Iy
with Dr. Cook's memories of days on the
Arctic floes. At length after a weary
march we arrived about 6 o'clock in the
evening at the camp and found that pick
ets had been put out keeping every one
Lack from the camp. I got a note through
to Madero and ha gave permission fur us
te enter. At this time Mrs. Francisco
Madero was with her husband, having
arrived during the afternoon. I Introduced
Dr. Cook to both of them and then began
a very unique congratulation contest. Both
men seemed concerned only In telling the
other of the other's greatness. I Introduced
Dr. Coi.k as the man who discovered the
North pole. Of course I might have quali
fied It by saying the man who ssvs he dis
covered it, but that would have been cruel,
and. anyway, I found Frederick A. to

Some Incidents In t'liurrhtv 1,11c I -vested

Fred A. Emery of Washington looks like
a divine, but most distinctly lie Is not. IT"
was on a visit to a little town in New
Hampshire when a friend of his at tin;
hotel Introduced him to a frroup of business
men as the Rev, lr. Mcfnbc. Ki.iery fell
In with the Joke, and his pious looking
face helped the thine ntoni;. In a short
while he w as lament ins the tendency
among men to disregard the, duty of koihk
to church.
"Golf," he snld sadly, "nml nutomol.iies
and other amuFcmonts have supplanted
worship In the church. This generation i.
deteriorating, and It is the greatest tiling
we have to fiuht. this lack of interest in
the church." "
With that he heaved a windy slh nn.l
looked like Nlolie nt her worst.
The business men looked uncomfortable
and agreed with Dr. McCnhv. ';'!,;. moved
him to make an appeal.
'Why can't you start the reform?" he
asked, and added enthusiastically: "How
many of you w ill promise to come to hear
my sermon tomorrow morning?"
Of course they all promised. This per
formance was repeated with another group,
and when the thing was all over Emery
had the promise of twenty tii"ti that they
would hear tills sermon the next niornin;;
at the church he named.
At church time he stationed himself with
his friend In the vestibule of the building,
and, as each of the faithful twenty filed in.
Emery laughed up hla sleeve. They haw
him and realized how they had been sold,
but they were too far in to back out, and
they heard the sermon preached by a real
minister. After church they looked for
Emery.
But he had been wise. He had taken
a train which ran through the town at a
convenient hour while services were In
progress. Popular Magazine.

The Rev. Henry R. Rose tells the story
of a young minister who had only recently
taken charge of a small pariah in Vermont.
He aspired to K'reater things and a larger
field, and In ti e hope that hi reputation
would travel bsyond the limits of the vil
lage to which lie had been sent, he threw
Into his sermo.ia all the force and elo

He was, however, totally unprepared for
what was intended for a compliment, but
which was put to him In such a way that
it left him in doubt an to the real im
pression he had made.
One Sunday morning, after an especially
brilliant effort, he was greeted by an old
lady, who was one of the most faithful
attendants at all Hervl. es Approaching the
young minister, ajie said:
