Peggy nudged Jo Ann and pointed to the sign ahead: "Speed limit, 80 miles." Jo Ann's dark brown eyes twinkled. "It's plain to see we're out in the Texas open now--the wide open." "Too bad poor old Jitters can't accept the invitation to do eighty. She's doing well when she makes forty or fifty. But even if she could go faster, Florence wouldn't let her." Peggy gestured toward the small, trim, fair-haired girl at the wheel. [more]

The earliest knowledge of the existence of the sedentary Indians in New Mexico and Arizona reached Europe by way of Mexico proper; but it is very doubtful whether or not the aborigines of Mexico had any positive information to impart about countries lying north of the present State of Querétaro. The tribes to the north were, in the language of the valley-confederates, "Chichimecas,"--a word yet undefined, but apparently synonymous, in the conceptions of the "Nahuatl"-speaking natives, with fierce savagery, and ultimately adopted by them as a warlike title.

While We Stood In The Puebla Station, Waiting For The Train To Be Made Ready, We Noticed A Priest, Who Was Buying His Ticket At The Office. On Boarding The Train, We Saw Nothing Of Him, As He Had Entered Another Car. Soon After We Started, Herman Made His Usual Trip Of Inspection Through The Train, And On His Return Told Me That A Learned Priest Was In The Second-Class Coach, And That I Ought To Know Him. As I Paid No Great Attention To His Suggestion, He Soon Deserted Me For His Priestly Friend, But Presently Returned And Renewed His Advice. He Told Me This Priest Was No Common Man; That He Was An Ardent Archaeologist; That He Not Only Collected Relics, But Made Full Notes And Diagrams Of All His Investigations; That He Cared For Live Indians Also, And Had Made A Great Collection Of Dress, Weapons, And Tools, Among Guatemalan Tribes.
