Largest Outdoor
Show In World
At Las Cruces
a local cast of 500 people who
will play all the parts in the big
outdoor pageant. Local citizens
today scratched their heads and
indicated they “had something”
and no one doubted they had die
biggest thing on their hands they
have had since the city was
founded back in 1850.
“The City of Crosses,” as Las
Cruces in known, was founded in
18510 toy a group of Mexican co1-
onlists from the Northern put
of what is now Now Mexico. They
sent a petition to the American
soldiers stationed at Dona Ana
to survey them a townsite. Lots
were drawn for location of home
steads and they soon settled down
admidst several groups of cros-
ses that marked the graves of
victims of Apache raids.
A caravan of ox carts loaded
with freight from Santa Fe to
Mexico was attacked there by
Apaches and entirely destroyed
A party from Dona Ana buried
the bodies and placed crosses ovei
each grave. Other groups ol
iwosses were erected over tbs
early dead, and the locality be-
""me familiarly known as "Las
Cruces”—the Crosses.
Today Las Cruces is a modern
city and stands at the cross roads
