the general, smiling blandly.

"At any time" was the nonchalant
reply.
Some people might have thought
such a solemn ceremony necessitated
pomp and full dress-they might even
have been Mortified at the sight of the
new president standing in his shirt
sleeves within the doorway of his
adobe domicile, with his pipe between
his teeth. holding up his right hand
and repeating in Spanish the oath of
office, which Barrajo uttered for per-
haps the thirteenth time in his long
held capacity as dictator.
Thus it was done.
The general called for a farewell
round of cheers, and they were given
with as much good will as the husky
and parched throats that had been in
positive evidence all night could mus
ter.
Then the rabble betook itself off,
much to Jacks relief, the general not
forgetting to give the highly enter
tanning military salute due to the ex-
allied Office his friend and protege now
occupied.
Having once embarked upon the sea
of adventure. Jack had become quite
reckless as to what port he brought
up at.
There was at least chance that this
astonishing change in his fortunes
might mean a material advance in the
line of his dream, for he had never
yet heard of a president of a Central

Book Two.
The Modern Argonauts.


Two years had flown since Senior
Jack was duly installed in office as
president of the republic-such a pc
riod Gautarica had never seen before,
and would hardly witness again in the
next decade. 1t would be impossible
to narrate the many successes and
failures Jack made during those two
years, nor shall | attempt it, since
more important events await our at
tention.
About the only cloud in Jacks sky
was Dona Juanita, who had become
passionately enamored of him. Bar
lajo, who dearly desired to see him
settled down, advised him to marry
her, and cast his fortunes for all time
with the people of his adoption.
Whereupon Jack felt compelled to
narrate the whole story of his past,
and Barrajo was so affected by it that
he fell upon his neck and wept tears
of sympathy, generous old soul that he
was.
But Barrajo was fearful of the re-
venge Dona Juanita might take if her
love were openly repulsed, and finally
eonfided to Jack the plan he had for
the advancement of their fortunes.
Briefly it was this:
When Cortez, with fire and sword.
scourged the fair land of the Monte
zumas to the north, and his savage
soldiers dealt out death with a lavish
hand whenever the people failed to re-
spond to their stern orders for more
af
over the whole of Mexico.
Then it was that thousands fled to
the unknown southland, led by their
priests. seeking new homes amid the
forest-clad wilderness of Central Amer
lea.
Since the object of Cortez's brutal
soldiers decree was to gain possession
of what riches the country possessed,
these guardians of the temples, before
indulging in flight, despoiled them of
the golden images and jewel-studded
altars, which vast treasures they car
ried with them, determined that, come
what might. these bearded barbarians
from over the sea should not succeed
in accomplishing their boasted object
History tells of the wonderful booty
secured by the Spanish conquistadors;
indeed, the imagination is appalled, at
the extent of the riches they secured.
In Peru, the people, hoping to ransom
their captive Inca, Atahuallpa, from
the cruel hands of Pizarro, had readily
filled room seventeen feet square and
as high as man could reach with gold
in the shape of ingots and statues from
the temples and palaces. and history
likewise declares that the quantity OF
treasure conveyed away and concealed
forever from the covetous eyes of the
Europeans was said to have infinitely

CHAPTER XI.

Jack Moves On the Palace.
You could almost have knocked Jack
Overton down with feather when he
heard Barrajo make this astounding
declaration-in fact he was tempted
to pinch himself, in order to discover
whether he were awake or sleeping.
1t was not Jacks habit to appear dis
tressed-whether the announcement
were a huge canard, or given in dead
earnest, he did not mean these men
of Gautarica should see him staggered,
so he quickly pulled himself together
and, laughing, said;
"Ah! indeed Thank you for the
honor, but tell me, how did this little
event transpire?"
"In the natural course of events,
your excellency. The noble army had
grown weary of Roblado, whose prom
ises of reform were never kept. They
liked Montejo no better, and, as usual,
elected me dictator, with the power to
choose their next President"
A wave of the sword brought out an
other blast of cheers and whistles and
yivas-then silence.
1t was wonderful.
But, see here, | am an alien," pro
tested Jack. weakly.
Not so-you have been a full-fiedged

This was the bee that for years had
buzzed in the bonnet of old General
Barrajo-he had never let 1t get out of
his mind day or night in all that time.
