The Garden of the Gods T HE Garden of the Gods lies between quaint and colorful Terlingua, and busy, modern Alpine. Massive rocks, colored by the brush of a master-painter, tower toward the sky and hide with their far-flung shadows the caves where Indians lived and died. Beyond these columned spires, upon the dis¬ tant southern horizon, rise the ghostly outlines of the Chisos range, where Alsate, chief of the Apache tribe, made his last stand within its many hidden caves. The great peak of Santiago looms high against the sky-line, guarding its tale of sudden death and bloody battle. For here, at the foot of Santiago, in 1880, a marauding, horse-stealing band of Indians were slain by a pursuing posse of Mexicans, from the Hacienda de Orientales. When evening descends upon this garden of the deities, and shadows begin to creep among the gaunt, great rocks, then can man believe in the pagan gods and demons. And looking far below, he is cheered to see the goat-herds amble across the road, or to watch the freighters, on their tedious overland trip from Terlingua to Alpine, following the white ribbon of the road, as it winds through the Garden of the Gods.
