WRECKING a PASO'S
msT “smstm"
EL PASO. Texas, May 3— Sky
scrapers of yesterday are the squat
buildings of today in this rapidly
growing border city.
In 1883 J. J. Mundy, who traded
three goats for Sunset Heights, now
the most valuable residential section
of the city, erected the first three
story building in the city. It was
considered a skyscraper at that time
and was the show' building of the
little frontier town. Work has begun
on the wrecking of this building to
make room, for a big theater building,
as it wras considered an eyesore
among the ten and twelve-story build
ings which front the central plaza
and El Paso street.
When the Mundy building was
erected it was decided to lay th<
first cement floor in the city on thi
J first floor of the building. To tarn]
j the earthen floor forty burros were
turned onto the floor and drivei
around it all night. A cement sur
face was then laid over this hard
ened earth.
At the time the building wa:
' erected Pioneer plaza was the cente
of business for El Paso and Pas
del Norte (now Juarez), and El Pasc
street was the single business street
The Mundy building is one of the fe\
remaining buildings of that day aloni
this street.

CAMP LEWIS, Tacoma, May 3.—It’s
just like a big family at the auxiliary
remount depot at Camp Lewis, where
186 men from the ranges of the West
have their ranch house. Of course
they have their officers, who com
mand all the formalities necessary for
military discipline, but there is a com
radeship about the men here that is
s different from any other unit in camp.
; It is the spirit of the West, the cat
> tie country, from which every man
: out here came and of which he is a
i part.
Captain J. W. Jackson, commander,
• is a Montanan and rancher through
and through, and many of the men in
' his command are some of the cap
r tain’s old friends in the West, whom
> he has seen grow through boyhood
1 into manhood on the plains and then
• voluntarily come into the army serv
7 ice. “Give the boys credit for every
' thing and leave me out,” the captain
told the Associated Press correspon
dent as he showed him around the
“ranch.”
The remount depot has its foreman,
just as every well-regulated ranch
does, and he is not a commissioned
officer. He is Sergeant W. A. Rich
ardson, formerly stock inspector for
Montana, who sold all his belongings
to come to Camp Lewis, bringing his
wife and family to Tacoma.
There are scores of men just like
Richardson, many college men and
owners of big ranches, who have left
behind everything and undertaken all
the work that goes with the remount
depot as a private without complaint
and joyously, because it is for their
country.
Captain Jackson has been equally
fortunate with his officers. Captain
Edward Raeder, adjutant and quar
termaster, has been in the army serv
ice for seventeen years, and has risen
from the ranks io his present posi
tion.
First Lieutenant Kenneth Hinckley,
chief veterinarian, has been in the
x
army service for more than six years
and has risen from the ranks to a
commission.
Captain Andrew E. Donovan, divi
sion veterinarian, who is quartered at
the remount depot, has had fifteen
years’ experience in the regular army
and is one of the best men in the
army in his line of work.
