THE other day man came In and

CHAPTER XIII.

| OI1AI bIb ALL.
Don Martial watched the various
movements Of the capataz. Seeing at last
that he did not seem inclined to make the
confession he was so impatiently await
ing, he touched him slightly. Carnero
started as If suddenly branded with a
hot iron.
What you have to reveal to me must
be very terrible" the Tigrero at length
said In low voice.
$50 terrible, my friend" the capataE
answered, that though alone with you
in this room 1 fear to tell 1t you"
The Tgrero shook his head sadly.
Speak, my friend" he said in a gentle
voice, II have suffered such agony during
the last few months that all the springs
Of my soul have been crushed by the fatal
pressure of despair"
"Yes, you are man carved In granite.
l know that you have struggled triumph
antly against lost fortune; but believe
me, Don Martial, there are sufferings
thousandfold more atrocious than death"
"The pity you testify for me Is only
weakness. / cannot die before have ac-
complished the task to which have de-
voted my wretched existence. have
sworn, at the peril of my life. to protect
the girl who was betrothed to me-"
Garry out your oath, then, Don Mar
tial, for the poor child was never In
greater peril than now"
What do you mean1 For heavens

passionately.
II mean that Don Sebastian covets the
wealth Of his ward. mean that remorse-
lessly and shamelessly laying aside all hu-
man aspect, forgetting that the unfortu-
nate girl the law has confded to him is
insane, he coldly intends to become her
murderer"

"Oh !" the capataz continued with saw

and highly praised by some persons"
"Explain yourself"

Sebastian Guerrero intends to marry his
ward"
MARRY his ward, he i" Don Martial ex-
claimed.
"Yes! You little know this man." the
capatas repeated with laugh, with the
implacable will, this wild beast with a
human face, who pitilessly breaks every
one who dares to resist him. He is re-
solved to marry his ward in order to strip
her Of her fortune, and he will do go, /

Yes. Almost Immediately after these
events the general returned to the Palmar.
He was no longer the same man. The
horrible death Of his daughter rendered
him gloomier and harsher. For a whole
week he remained shut up In his apart
ments; but, at last, one day he sent for
me to inquire as to what had happened
at the hacienda during his absence.

orders 1t may please your eIcsllency to
give me-"
He looked at me for few moments as
trying to read my very thoughts, and
then laid his hand on my arm. "Carnero,"
he said to me, you have been q long
time In my service, but take care lest
should have to dismiss you. You do not

telligent and too clear sighted; and now
lead me to Dona Anita's apartments"
Il obeyed with hanging head; the gen.
erel remained an hour with the Young
lady, and l never knew what was said
between them. 1t Is true that now and
then heard the general speaking loudly
and angrily, and Dona Anita weeping,
and apparently making some entreaty to
him; but that was all. When the general
came out he was very pale. The morrow
at daybreak we set out for Mexico, and
Dona Anita followed us In a palanquin.
As soon as we reached our journeys end
Dona Anita was carried to the Convent
Of the Bernardines, where the good sisters
received her with tears of sorrowful SYM

A SENSITIVE LENS.
There seems Something Almost SCI

There seems Something Almost SCI
pernatural in the Big Glasses.
With the exception Of astronomers,
few persons have any Idea of the
wonderful sensltiveness of the lens of
telescope. These marvellous artifi-
cial eyes can be produced only by the
exercise of the most scrupulous care
In the selection Of the glass itself,
consumate skill and inexhaustible
patience. The process Of grinding
and polishing often occupies several
months. When the lens Of big tele-
scope is completed 1t constitutes one
of the greatest marvels wrought by
man.
An article In the Literary Digest de-
scribes how the sensitiveness of
lens was illustrated by Alvan Clark,
the greatest maker America has
produced:
Mr.. Clark walked down to the lens
and held his hand under 1t about two
feet away. Instantaneously marvel
Ouo bpcStuCiO Dulot ihtO view. II
seemed as II the great glass disk had
become a living volcano, squirting forth
tets of flame.
The display was dazzling. Waving.
leaping, dancing, the countless tongues
of light cleaned and vibrated; then.
fitfully, reluctantly. they died away.
leaving the lens rejecting only pure.
untroubled light.
What Is it7 How do you account
for the wonder2 were the eager ques-
tions. 1t Is only the radiation of heat
alternately expanding and contracting
the glass. II the hand had been put
upon the lens itself, the phenomenon
would have been more violent.
To person more ignorant Of lenses
the almost supernatural sensitiveness
of mass of glass weighing several
hundred pounds Is astonishing, but to
the scientist 1t Is an everyday mat
ter, for he has instruments that will
register with unfalterlng nicely the
approach Of person fifty or a hun
dred feet away.

Elephants Cam Carry a Grudre

A Hindoo mahout was employed
with a working elephant In Bangkok,
Siam, and frequently used steel goad
in defiance Of all warnings. The re-
suit was that his elephant made fre-
quent Attempts to kill him, and finally
the man was discharged. Nearly four
years afterward, by a most remark
able coincidence, both elephant and
mahout met again In Maulmaln,
Burma, and no sooner was the big
tusker out Of sight OF the sawmill and
we'll into the forest than he curled his
trunk up backward, seized his old per-
secutor by the neck, hurled him to the
ground, and In an instant mighty
forefoot had crushed out his life.

HoLDuP MAIN STREET CAR NEAR
ASCOT PARK
Masked Bandits Escape In Darkness
While Deputy SherIffs and
Police Search for
Them

Car No AGO of the Main street and
Moneta avenue line of the Los Angeles
railway was held up at Ascot park at l
o'clock this morning by two masked men.
The conductor was robbed of SIS and
ihe motorman of .S2 caliber revolver
which he carried for protection.
The car was in charge of Motorman
Luepe and Conductor Strain. 1t had no
passengers when it arrived at the end
of the line at the entrance to Ascot park.
and the crew was waiting for the time to
make the return trip,
Suddenly two men with black masks
over their faces appeared at the car door
and at the point of revolvers ordered
them to throw UP their hands.
The order was promptly obeyed, and
while one man kept them covered with a
pistol the other searched them
From Luepe revolver was secured and
from Strain the robber got SIS in small
change.
The men jumped from the car and dis
appeared in the darkness, and the car was
run back to town, where the robbery was
reported to the police.
A report of the robbery was telephoned
to the central police station and to the
sheriff's office. Soon scores of officers
were on their way to the scene, and all
during the night search was kept up
for the men.
Despite the fact that the car crew was
able to furnish a good description of the
robbers, no one answering it was found.
