CHAPTER x.

To an American, accustomed to get
ting things done first and talking about
1t afterward, there is nothing so subtly
irritating as the old-world Journalism,
the polite evasiveness of the Mexi-
cans; and yet, at times, they can speak
to the point W. h the best of us.
For sixty day. Don Cipriano Aragon
had smiled and uiled and then. sud-
denly, as the last day of their mining
permit passed by and there was no
record of a announcement by Cruz
Mendez, he appeared at the Eagle Tail
mine with a pistol in his belt and a
triumphant sheer on his lips.
Behind him rode four Mexicans,
fully armed, and they made no reply
to De Lancey's polite "Buenos dias!"
take your poor things" burst out
Aragon, pointing contemptuously at
their tent and beds, "and your low,
pelado M~exican-and go! This mine
no longer stands In the name of Cruz
Mendez, and l want 1t for myself No,
not a world" he cried, as De Lancey
opened his mouth to explain. Moth
ing! Only go!"
mo, senior" said Hooker, dropping
his hand to his s~ix-shooter which hung
low by his leg and stepping forward,
I'VE will not gol"
"What?" stormed Aragon, you"
BE careful therei" warned Bud,
suddenly fixing his eyes on one of the
four retainers. "If you touch that gun
I'll kill you'll"
There was a pause, In which the
Mexicans sat frozen to their saddles,
and then De Lancey broke the silence.
you must not think, Senior Ara
gon," he began, speaking with a GER
tain bitterness, that you can carry
your point like this. My friend here is
a Texan. and if your men stir he will
kill them. But there is a law in this
country for every man-what is it that
you want?"
II want this mining claim" shouted
Aragon, that you have so unjustly Ia
ken from me through that scoundrel
Mendezl And / want you to step
aside, SO that | can set up my monu-
ments and take possession of it."
THE Senior Aragon has not been to
tn agente mineral today" suggested
De Lancey suavely. IF he had taken
the trouble he would not"
Enough" cried Aragon, still trying
to carry it off cavalierly; 81 sent my
servant to the mining agent yesterday
and he reported that the permit had
lapsed."
IF he had taken the pains to in
quire for new permits, however," re-
turned De Lancey, che would have
found hat one has been issued to me.
I am now a Mexican citizen, like your
self"
You'll" screamed Aragon, his eyes
bullying with establishment; and then,
finding himself tricked, he turned sud
denly upon one of his retainers and
struck him with his whip.
Son of a goatl" he stormed. "Pigl
Is this the way you obey my orders?"
But though he rayed and scolded, he
had gone too far, and there was no
putting the blame on his servant In
his desire to humiliate the hated grin
gos he had thrown down all his guards,
and even De Lancey saw all too clear
ly what his intentions in the matter
had been.
Spare your cursing. Senior Aragon,"
he said. and after this" he added.

you can save your pretty words. too
for somebody else. We shall re-
main here and hold our property"
Hal You Americansi" exclaimed
Aragon, as he chewed bitterly on his
defeat. you will rob us of every
thing-even our government. So you
are a Mexican citizen, Ell? You must
value this barren mine very highly to
give up the protection of your govern
ment. But perhaps you are acquainted
with a man named Kruger?" he
sneered.
"He would sell his honor any time
to defraud a Mexican of his rights,
and l doubt not it was he who sent
you here. Yes, l have known it from
the first-but | will fool him yeti
so you are a Mexican citizen. Senior
De Lancey7 Bien, then you shall pay
the full price of your citizenship. Be-
fore our law you are now no more than
that poor pelado, Mendez- You cannot
appeal now to your consul at Gads-
den-you are only a Mexicanl Very
welli"
He shrugged his shoulders and
smiled significantly.
No." retorted De Lancey angrily;
you are right cannot appeal to my
government! But let me tell you some
thing. Senior Mexicanol An American
needs no government to protect him
he has his gun, and that Is enough"
YES added Bud, who had caught
the drift of the last, "and he has his
friends. too; don't forget that!" He
strobe over toward Aragon and men
aced him with a threatening finger.
IF anything happens to my friend"
he Kissed, you will have me to whip!
And now. senor," he added, speaking
in the idiom of the country. "go with
God-and do not come back!"
"Pahi" spat back Aragon, his hate
for the pushing foreigner showing in
every glance; Il will beat you yet!
And l pray God the revoltosos come
this way, If they take the full half Of
my cattle-so long as they get you
twoi"
Very WELL" nodded Bud as Aragon
and his men turned away, "but be
careful you do not send any!"
''Goodi" he continued, smiling grim
ly at the pallid Phil; now we got him
where we want him-out in the open.
And I'll just remember them four pai-
sanos he had with him-they're his
handy men, the boys with nerve-and
don't never let one of 'em catch you
out after dark"
De Lancey sat down on a rock and
wiped his face.
Heavens, Bud" he groaned, II
never would have believed it of him
l thought he was on the square. But
it just goes to prove the old saying
every Mexican has got a streak of yell
low in him somewhere. All you've
got to do is to trust him long enough
and you'll find it out. Well, we're hep
t o Mr.. Aragon, all right"
81 never seen n of these polite,
p~alavering Mexicans yet" observed
Bud sagely, that wasn't crooked. And
this Teller Aragon is mean, to boot.
But that's a game" he added, that
two can play at. l don't know how you
feel, Phil, but we been kinder creeping
and slipping around SO long that I'm
all cramped up inside. Never suffered
more in my life than the last sixty
days-being polite to that damn Next

they can wait; but we're sitting on a

when you throw in with old Aragon
and go to making love to his daugh-
ter you know you're not doing right!
That's all there is to it-you're doing
me and Kruger dirt!"
Well. Bud said De Lancey with
mock gravity, IF that's the way you
feel about it l won't do it any morel"

sure wears me out. Phil, worrying
about it."
well, then, l won't do It," protested
Phil sincerely. $50 that's settled-now
who's going to turn Mexican citizen?"
"Suit yourself" said Bud ~listlessly.
I'll match you for it," proposed De
Lancey, diving into his pocket for
money.
Don't need to-" responded Bud;
-'you can do what you please"
No; I'll match you'll" persisted Phil.
THAT was the Observation-Disclosures
it was an even break we'd let the
money talk. Here's your quarter-and
IL l match you I'll become the Mexi-
can citizen. All set? Let 'er go!"
He tipped the coin into the air and
caught it in his hand.
"Heads!" he called, without looking
at it. What you got?"
"Headsl" answered Bud, and Phil
chucked his money into the air again
and laughed as it dropped into his
palm.
Heads she is againl" he cried,
showing the Mexican eagle; Il never
did see the time when l couldn't match
you, anyway. So now, old socks, you
can keep right on being a Texan and
hating Mexicans like horny toads, and
I'll d~enounce the Eagle Tail the min
ute the time is UP. And l won't go
near the Aragon outfit unless you're
with me-is that a go? All right,
shake hands on it, pard! wouldn't
quarrel with you for anythingl"
Jaw, that's all right" mumbled Bud,
rising and holding out his hand. Il
knowed you didn't mean nothing" He
sat down again after that and gazed
drearily out the door.
Say, Bud" began Phil, his eyes
sparkling with amusement, I've got
something to tell you about that dance
last night. If didn't put the crusher
on Mr.. Feliz Luna and Manuel del
Rey! Wowl / sure wished you were
there to see me do it!
This Felix Luna is the son Of an
old sugar planter down in the hot coun-
try somewhere. He got run out by
the revoltosos and now he's up here
trying to make a winning with Gracia
Aragon-uniting two noble families,
and all that junk. Well, sir, of all the
conceited, swelled-up little squirts you
ever saw In your life he's the limit,
and yet he old man kind Of favors
him.
But this Manuel del Rey is the cap
tain Of the rurales around here and a
genuine Mexican ire-eater-all buck
skin and fierce m~ustachios, and smells
like chill peppers and garlic-and the
two Of 'em were having It back and
forth as to who got the next dance
with Gracia.
well, you know how 1t is at a Mexi-
car dance-everybody is supposed to
be introduced to everybody eIse-and
when ! saw those two young turkey
cocks talking with their hands and
eyebrows and everybody else backing
of, ! stepped in close and looked at
the girl.
