The Three Spears
Copyright 1911, by Associated Literary Press.l
By MAUD ]. PERKINS

A girl was riding toward Holcomb
riding like the wind On a why pinto
Behind her was an escort of four
Yaqui maidens, who did not display
the grace and abandon of their leader.
She brought her horse up standing
within a few feet Of Holcomb's own,
and the adventurer say that she was
not Indian at all, but pure Spanish.
Her creamy, oval face, full scarlet lips
and eyes like pools of black water
made her very attractive.
The black eyes appraised HoIcomb
swiftly. He sat his horse like cow
boy, but the pack animal behind was
laden with the outfit Of the prospector.
He was bronzed by hot suns, and his
handsome face carried an expression
of bold fearlessness that just escaped
recklessness.
Senior" she said abruptly in Span
fsh. don't go to the Three Spears -
Why?" demanded Holcomb abrupt
~. For an instant his eyes sought the
shimmering southwest, where three
slender peaks arose from the gray of
the desert into the hard blue of the
sky
''Danger!" With the single word
the girl wheeled her horse abruptly and
set off at a gallop toward the river
with her cavalcade. Their goal was a
herd of cattle which was straying
from the vicinity of the settlement.
HoIcomb, bordering, rode on to the
Yaqui town. 1t was situated near the
only water within forty miles, a
stream sunk deep in a cleft of the
rocks. 1t was far below the level of
the half desert prairie that stretched
away to the mountains. The huts and
tents OF the town were grouped on a
shelf just above high water

Riding Like the Wind.

Picking his way down to the river
along a trail steep and dangerous,
HolcOmb replenished his water supply
bought meal of the sullen Indians, and
set out on his way to the west again.
AS he climbed to the plateau a chief
halted him with appraised hand-a tall
man with stern brown face and mar.
row eyes.
The stranger must not go to the
Three Spears" he grunted.
Holcomb returned the hostile gaze
with ca1mness. He rolled a husk Gig.
arctic, lighted it and shook the reins.
81 heard you, chief he answered. The
Indian stepped ungraciousIy aside.
An hour later Holcomb noted four
dots on the northern horizon-two
mounted Yaquis with pack horses,
swinging out and ahead of him in a
wide half-circle
Holcomb was up next morning at
the earliest break of dawn, for the
Three Spears" were less than a DAVIS
journey away and he was anxious to
reach them. At noon, when he stop
ped for a hasty lunch, he was within
the mouth of the defile which led to
the higher Businesses.
He was tightening the cinch of his
horse, for the trail ahead was steep
and narrow, when a sound caused him
to wheel. The Spanish girl of the day
before was coming toward him.
Her thin dress was torn and her
moccasins were cut to shreds. There
were angry bruises on her bare arms
and she limped as she walked.
You must go back" she cried
urgently in Spanish; "the Three
Spears mean death"
His mouth set in an obstinate line.
I've travelled for six weeks to see the
Three Spears They say there's gold
there; that's why the Indians guard
them SO closely.
The girl laid an imploring hand on
his arm. ''No, mol" Her earnestness
could not be mistaken. There is no
gold there. But in the valley of the
Three Spears is the burial-place of
the tribes. The Great Father comes
there. And the white man must not
see.

Astonfshed Husband

De W6lfe Hopper tells a good story
about tae domestic unhappiness Of an
other actor. The hero Of the joke was
man who had married because the
woman had much money, although no
beauty. Naturally, after the wedding
ceremony and the acquisition Of the
brides financial resources, the hus-
band was never very attentive to her.
Another member Of the company in
which the couple were appearing was,
however, far more appreciative Of the
lady's charms, and proceeded to make
love to her in an ardent but steaIthy
manner. The grand finale came one
evening when the actor discovered
the other man kissing his wife. The
fond lover stood petrified with fear,
and expected to be shot down the
next moment
No such thing happened. The out
ragged husband only lifted his hands
toward the ceiling with q gesture OF
intense surprise, and exclaimed:
'Mercifu1 heavens! And he didn't
even have toll"

an aged darky who was formerly in

their converse the congressman

About that time a friend came to
live with us, and / noticed that after
he had been with US a week he would
not drink his coffee any more. I asked
him the reason. He replied, I have
not had a headache since l left of

last week, when began again, here at
your table. I don't see how anyone
can like coffee, anyway, after drink
ing Postum!
81 said nothing, but at once ordered
package Of Postum. That was five
months ago, and we have drank no
coffee since, except on two occasions
when We had company, and the result
each time was that my husband could
not sleep, but lay awake and tossed
and talked half the night. We were
convinced that coffee caused his suf-
fering, SO we returned to Postum, con-
