L Pastor First Baptist Chur | THE TERROR OF THE BORDER Reoollections of Captain Bourke aud His Campaign Against Garsa. UNFOUNDED REPORT OF ASSASSINATION Premature Troq Obituaries tant Indian the n ¥ Varle Wars—Interesting of ous, r—G Services Reminiscences, During the past two weeks the friends of Captain John G. Bourke were amazed to read in a number of papers flattering obituaries of the gallant trooper. The cause of these premature tributes was an uufounded report to tho effect that the captain was assassinated at San An- tonio, Tex., while testifying at the trial of one of Garza’s border ruffians. The teport was promptly denied, neverthe- less the incident created much excite- mentin Omaha, where Captain Bourke spent many years and where he led to the altar one of Omaha’s fair daughtors, A writer inthe Press of Philadelphia, where Captain Bourka.was born, gives an interesting sketeh of his career on the Texas vorder. *‘Early in the 60, he writes, “Bourke graduated from West Point, He was a member of tho Fifteenth Pennsylvania, or, as it was better known, the Anderson cavalry, ranking as n sccond lieutenant. In 1887 he joined the Third cavalry, then skir- mishing in Arizona under direction of General Crook. It there that I met Caplain urke. Crook made hime his aide and placed much confidence in his ability and courage, “The bloody war with the Apaches was soon in progress and for four years we fought the red men until they were subdued. Bourke wasa splendid lin- guist and frequently acted as an offiecial terpreter between the Spanish-speuk- ing Indians and General Howard, who united General Crook’s command with his own. “I have many recollectionsof Bourke’s usefulness in such a capacity. He was a witty man and a clever story teller. Some of his spare time was also passed in writing articles on military topics. I believe soveral years ago he wrote a book giving his experiences in the arm He was very popular with his associntes and comrades in arms. When at Omaha with General Crook he was married to the daughter of Hon. John A. Harbach. “When the Indian troubles in the Yellowstone country broke out, Captain Bourke was again with General Crook and participated gn tho fight on Rose- bud river, when ting Bull held our forces back and then drew away only to annihilate General Custer’s band of brave men. “About two yenrs nzo when Captain Bourke was dct4lAd to join General Stanley’s command, then regulating af- fairs along the Mexican border, and the chase after Garza, the outlaw, gave him ample opportunity service. “Captain Bourke’s chiel prominence as a United States army ofticer dates from the Gurza guerriila warfaro,which grew from a spasmodic uprising into a con- certed revolution against the Mexican government. The self-styled *‘revolu- tionists” were, in Captuin Bourke’s own language, “bandits * * * who have a porfect organization, a good system of signals, know the country thoroughly and, being without uniform, can turn themselves into innocent ranchmen and goat herders in live minutes.> “It was on December 29, 1891, that ptain Hardie of the Third cavalry, struck a camp of about 200 Garza fol- lowers in dense chaparral pe: the ranch of Gareia, Garza’s father-in-law. Captain Brooks’ Texas raungers and troop A, Third cavalry, and a force of deputy marshals were the American vanguard. These attacked the bandits. who retived. Captain Bourke, as Cap- tain Hardie in his report, was along as a volunie g ‘heso bandits,” says Captain Bourke’s report, ‘scattered in the chap- 1 at sundown, and I do not think v will fight mich unless they get in the toils.” “Garza, meanwhile, realizing that his was looked upon with suspicion, tried to rehabilitato himself with the natives on the Mexican sid. This re- sulied in a tempol weeretion of his force. The people made a scaat living herding and working as agricultural labove nd were sily induced for a time to join the revolutionary standard vz, wrza’s scheme, backed by a large amount of money, contemplated the declaration of a republic under the con- stitution of 1877 as soon as the northern streteh of Mexico had been cut off by military cordong. This design was pleaded by Garza in enuation of many plundering expeditions. The base of operations was on the United States side of the Rio Grande, in Texus, and a concerted movement upon Mexico was what it became necessary Uncle Sam’s troops should prev There is nodoubt that the anti-Dinz element in Mexico gave the constituted authorities of that republic much concern for a time. “Meanwhile Captain Bourke commard at Fort Ringgold, along the line of hostilities, Captain Bourkesent to Assistant Adjutant General Martin, at military headquarters in San Ane tonio, Tex., for good guides and scouts, “This request was complied with, and an active mpaign of strategy w opened by Captain Bourke, in co-opera tion with other detachments, moving soparately, under command of Hardio and others.
