A Desperate Pass.

her beauty and embarrassed by my new
wild thoughts in regard to her. l became
suddenly conscious of the uncouth, in

peasants dress was dsordered and be-
grimed. my hair was towsled and long.

Il wish to CO." I blurted out. as my
gaze fell before her, and / fingered the
cap held with the uneasy self-conscious-
ness of clown in the preser &c of prin-
cess.
She was quick to repress the start of re-
pugnance which I had seen in her eyes
as the light had first fallen upon me. and
as quick to notice the change In my voice.
She read 1t. 8 mistrust. You shall go.

She turned and led the way to room
along the broad corridor. You will find
everything for your disguise there"
Il do not need a disguise. Only to

Il wish to leave the house" l repeated.
She thought a second. II must speak

She turned into a room close at hand.

Il thank you, but ! have no need Of
food"
With sign she dismissed them. You
have some fresh intention. Tell me-" she
said as soon as we were alone.
Il can only say that 1 must leave the
house.
She looked at me intently and then tho
earnest expression yielded to faint
smile. ~ know you now too well to think

From the Seattle Post Intelligence.
One man who has killed more bulls and
probably seen more of gore and death in
the bull ring than any other man who has
ever visited the Pacific coast 10 Senior
Gaviao, a Spanish matador of distinction,
now common sailor on board the big
kosmos liner Alexandria, which arrived
in port today
Gaviao was signed at one OF the South
American ports, where for some time past
he had been making his living as a long
shoreman. Not pleased with the work. he
quit to come north.
The man is past the prime of life. but
still has the whipcord muscle OF the ath-
lete and the quick. sure movement SO
necessary to the man whose occupation
is to gamble daily with death
There is said to be a romance about his
quitting the ring In the way OF love
passion the man conceived for high
born Spanish lady who rejected his ad
vances He is also reported to have quit
the ring and his native land on account
of losing his nerve at a critical time when
killing an Infatuated bull taking to his
heels in a panic. thus losing his prestige.
Gaviao maintains q silence over his ex-
ploits. ,-r
