A Ranger Recollects

The year is 1859- We are now visiting a man
who has had many adventures and experiences
in the Young West of a growing America.
Please take the small chair on the veranda.
You will notice the mayor and the editor of
the local newspaper. They are here among the
many guests to listen to our hero as he spins
his true story.

"At the time of my arrival in Texas, the
country was in an unsettled state. For a long
period of time a system of border warfare had
existed between the citizens of Texas and Mexi-
co — growing out of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence on the part of the young Republic.
Marauding parties from beyond rhe Rio Grande
kept the settlers of western Texas in a state of
constant agitation and excitement.

Besides these annoyances, the. inhabitants of
others sections were perpetually on the alert to
defend themselves against the Indians. This
condition of affairs necessarily resulted into a
desire to have strong protection. So the Texas
Rangers were created, a military order as pecu-
liar as it has become famous.

The qualifications necessary in a genuine.
Ranger was pot, in many respects, such as are
required in the ordinary soldier. Discipline, in
the common acceptance of the term, was not
regarded as absolutely necessary. A fleet horse,
an eye that could detect the trail, a power of
endurance that defied fatigue, and the faculty
of "looking through the double sights of his
rifle with a steady" arm" — these distinguished
the Ranger, rather than any special knowledge
of tactics. He was subjected to no "regulation
uniform." However, his usual clothing were
buckskin moccasins and overhauls, a round-
about and red shirt, and a cap manufactured by
his own hands from the skins of the coon or
wildcat; also two or three revolvers and a
bowie knife in his belt and a short rifle on
his arm.

In this guise, and well mounted, he could
cover eighty miles between the rising and set-
ting sun. And then gathering his blanket
around him, He down upon the prairie grass
with his saddle for a pillow. The compensation
received from the government at that time was
one dollar a day. Finding no other employment
which seemed to me more remunerative or at-
tractive I joined Captain Cameron at San
Patricio.

Captain Cameron was a Scotchman, a noble
and brave man, who very early in bis life had

left his native country and established himself
on the banks of the Nueces. During the distur-
bances which distracted the country, his intelli-
gence, chivalry and force of character drew
the attention of his fellow citizens towards him.
They felt he was one upon whom they might
lean for protection.

His company consisted of forty-five men. My
first experience in Indian warfare was an
engagement with a roving band of Comanches
whom we suddenly encountered near Casa
Blanca, during one of our excursions beyond
the Nueces. They were put to flight after a
sharp exchange of bullets on one side and
arrows on the other. Not however, until I had
become most emphatically impressed with a
due sense of their brave" and warlike character.
They are a numerous and powerful tribe whose
range extends from the headwaters of - the
Guadaloupe to the base of -the Rocky Mount-
ains. »

A short time subsequent to this adventure
we obtained information that a considerable
body of Mexicans had crossed the border and
were somewhere in our vicinity. While on the
lookout for them, we met the forces under
General Davis at Panta Clan one day. His com-
pany having listened to extravagant rumors re-
lative to the great numbers of Mexicans on the
march, had become alarmed. During the night,
most of them flocked to our encampment near
by. We were all discussing the probable where-
abouts of the enemy.

And where were they? At this very time,
that we were trying to figure out their location,
they were crawling into the camp. They seized
every description of property they could lay
their hands on, and retired without loss or
molestation. The next morning they presented
themselves and offered battle. Though far out-
numbering our united forces, we compelled
them to retreat after a battle of two hours. And
we took from them, in addition to the spoils
of the previous night, more than forty mules.

It was not long after the Panta Clan en-
gagement, while we were in the vicinity of
Seguin, that Ben McCuIlough, with sixteen
others, including myself, were detached from
the main body of Rangers, and sent out as
spies. McCuIlough was a brave fellow — a tall
straight man, over six feet high, rawboned,
light sandy hair, extremely reserved in manner,
with keen black eyes that shone like diamonds.

We presently struck a wide trail leading to

the south, and following it soon came in sight
of some seven hundred Comanches near the
Lavaca River. Unable to cope with so formid-
able a body, we hovered in their vicinity, keep-
ing them constantly under observation. They
continued their march in the direction of the
coast until they reached at length the settlement
of Lindville on Matagorda Bay. This they at-
tacked and burned. They killed some persons
and took others away as prisoners.

From a distant height we witnessed this af-
fair, entirely unable to render any effectual
resistance. Runners, however, were dispatched
in hot haste to General Burleson on the Colo-
rado, conveying information of what had hap-
pened, and requesting reinforcements at once.
True to his chivalrous nature, General Burle-
son, who never waited a second call when
danger was to be met, sent forward as many
men as he could So that by the time he had
tracked the marauders on their retreat as far
as Plum Creek, our numbers 'had increased to
three hundred.

In concluding upon the plan of attack, our
great object was to rescue the prisoners. It was
ascertained as we anticipated, that they were
with the old warriors in the rear of the en-
campment. A portion of our force, accordingly,
made a wide circuit, and then quickly made the
attack. They managed to rescue alive two of the
prisoners.

As I approached with another detachment
of my comrades from a different direction, a
buckshot struck me near the elbow passing up
the arm to the shoulder blade where it yet re-
mains. It was my bridle arm, causing me to
drop the rein and consequently my horse start-
ed to carry me into the midst of the enemy!
Seeing my perilous situation, the Rangers rush-
ed alter me without awaiting the word of
command. There was a terrible confusion but
it ended in victory for our side. We also re-
covered all the property stolen from- Lindville.

My six months' term of service under Cam-
eron now expired. And bidding him farewell, 1
journeyed to San Antonio, and from there to

Seguin on the Guadeloupe wfc*r* I had taken
up my residence. The business I adopted for
a livelihood was then a common one in that
region, the capturing of wild horses. And after
breaking them to the saddle or harness, we
disposed of them to the planters. Sometimes I
purchased from the Mexicans those horses
which had already been subdued. And collect-
ing a drove I would set out on a sort of horse-
peddling speculation.

Frequently those trips extended into Louisi-
ana where profitable customers were generally
to be found among the cotton and sugar grow-
ers on the bayous. They usually cost me when
purchased, four or five dollars a head and
were sold for a price ranging from fifteen to
thirty. So that with industry and good Iwek. it
was capable of being made a profitable occu-
pation.

I had arranged with Ben McCuHoogh to go
on the famous Santa Fe Expedition. In fact,
I accompanied it a long distance above Aqetm,
but there I became prostrated with a violent
attack of chills and fever. I was induced most
relunctantly to turn heck. So retracing my steps
to Austin, I lingered idly in the neighborhood
of the Colorado until health returned. Perhaps
it was fortunate for me that all this happened.
For the Santa Fe Expedition had an uofertunate
end.

Then came another call to arms. Thw I en*
tered on my second campaign as a Texas
Ranger by joining feck Hays at San Antonio.
When we meet again I shall tell you more of
my adventures as a member or the Texas
Rangers. It is not praise 1 give to myself when
I say to you, that man for man, the finest
mounted fighters or soldier in die entire world
is a Texas Ranger.

1 regret having to stop now, be* yon can
understand that rest is necessary lor me. For
1 have not completely recovered from my
wounds which I suffered fighting the Jodaam
and the Mexicans."

My name is Charles Atlas. Of course, I can't promise that you'll
win the title of "World's Most Perfectly Developed Man," as I
did. But I do say that I believe I can make a mighty powerful
He-Man out of you - in a very short time.
In fact, you can prove it to yourself in 7
days. At my risk, of course. And I have
good reason for believing I can do it. Be-
cause during the last 30 years I have turned
many thousands of weaklings — fellows^
who were ashamed of their bodies — ,
into beautifully-proportioned human
dynamos of strength, energy, and
tireless endurance . . . with the
kind of muscular development
that needn't take "back talk"
from any one. My big freej
book will tell you how my se-
cret of Dynamic Tension may
be able to do such a job for
you. Where shall I send your
copy? There's not a bit of cost
