Main Gate of City Wall.

not a stage effect, and that old Spain
itself has no more romantic pictures
than those to be found about those
very walls, one feels that the sight is
worth the long trip, and even worth
the walks in the sun Though it is
easy to let the sun convince one other

corners, where once protruded the old
iron cannOns which are now stuck
muZzle-down in the corners of the
gates, the forward walls of the main
gate, where riflemen could pick off
the parties of attacking Indians or
convicts, and the rare old main gate
itself, with it's little lookout, the bal
cony windows from which the chal-
lengeS once came, are all touches
which one does not realize can be en-
countered anywhere but in Europe
Yet here in Campeche they stand, as
romantic and silent and natural as
though they had been built in the
days of Ell Cid and not in the moro
prosaic epoch of Charles the Fourth,
when walls were a questionable pro-
lection, and chivalry was of the type
of Don QuiXOte.

The work on the wall was begun in
1892. and an inscription over the prin-
cipal gate states that it was completed
in 1863, having been u years in build
ing. In form and walls spread over
an irregular seven-sided polygon, with
bastiOns at each of the corners, and
massive octagonal forts at the waters
edge The walls are eight meters, or
&c feet high. and are four meters or
1919 feet thick, all of solid masonry,
apparently as strong to-day as when
they were built, with the exception of
the four or five places where the walls
have been thrown down to make way
for roads communicating with the out
side.
A moat, now almost obliterated,
once surrounded the walls. and was an
added protection from surprise 1t is

OF OLD Mexico which are calculated to
thrill or at least interest every read
er. Such story would be that of a
walled city, still such a city as it was
when the walls were built, and now
tlnged with the romance of the old
days which has been softened by
imagination and the forgetting of un-
pleasant things. Here in Mexico is To-
Gated at least one such city, and, prob
ably without doubt, the possessor of
the only ancient walls which still re-

and still serve in some measure as a
part OF the citys life. Campeche, the
ancient capital of the penitentiary col

by the same walls which the Spanish
garrisons of the vice-regal days erect

past as a protection against maraud-

Spanish and Mexican convicts.
Campeche is one of the most inter-

more than quiet hot-country town.

There she sat, now pale, now red,
while heaven knows what jumbled
impulses ran through her mind.
Twice, in the course of his investiga-

the armchair that Dorothy shuddered.
Once, the officer had suggested that
she would be permitted to go to her
own bedroom. She shook her head in
denial and when they called for her
to open the smokehouse door, she de-
tached its key from the bunch at her
girdle and flung it toward the sentry
without word.
Hi, hi, within there! The rogue's
got away from us! He's crossed the
river" came the shout from the street
below; and Mistress Dorothy's unwel-
come visitors were gone as suddenly
as they had come.
AS the last hoof-beat died away,
Dorothy slipped to her knees beside
the chair.

smothered inquiry; and then, before
assurance could be made, Huguenon
