what for?" queried Bud. and then
1t was Amigo who smiled.
ITO kill Mexicans with" he replied,
and in those words Hooker read the
secret of his thrift.
While his wild brethren fought In
the hills or prepared for the battles to
come, 1t was his part to earn the
money that should keep them in am
munition. 1t was for that, In fact, that
Porfirio Diaz had seized all the peace
full Yaquis in a night and shipped them
to Yucatan-for he saw that while
they were working the wild Yaquis
would never lack.
All the time that Amigo had been
doing two mems work and saving on
cheerful dream in his mind-to kill
more Mexicans!
Yet, despite the savagery in him,
Hooker had come to like the Yaqui,
and he liked him still. With the
rurales on his trail it was better that
he should go, but Bud wanted him to
return. So, knowing the simple hon.
esty of Indians, he brought out his
own spare pistol and placed it in Ami
go's hands. Often he had seen him
gazing at it longingly. for it was light
er than his heavy Mauser and better
for the journey.
"Here," he said. 'I will lend you my
pistol-and you can give it to me when
you come back"
"Sure!" answered the Indian, hang
ing 1t on his hip; "adios!"
They shook hands then. and the
Yaqui disappeared in the darkness. In
the morning, when squad of rurales
closed in on the camp, they found
nothing but his great tracks in the
dust.

CHAPTER XVIII.

A month of weary waiting followed
that day Of days In Fortuna, and still
there was no word from Phil. Bernardo
Bravo and his rebel raiders passed
through the mountains to the east. and
news came OF heavy fighting in Chi
huahua. Don Cipriano Aragon moved
his family back to his hacienda and
Gracia became only dream.
Then, one day. as Hooker and the
Yaqui were industriously pounding out
gold, a messenger came out from town
with a telegram In his hand.

He passed the messenger on the way
to town, took out his first papers as a
citizen, picked up the mineral agents
expert on the way back, and located
the Eagle Tail in his own name Be-
fore riding back to camp he wired to
Kruger:
Have turned Mex and relocated claim.
HOOKER.
1t was his last card, and he did not
expect to win by 1t. Fate had been
against him from the first, and he
could see his finish, but his nature
drove him to fight on. All that Ara.
gon had to do now was to have him
summoned for military service. and
Del Rey would do the rest
Then he could take over the mine
mere formality-or so it seemed
but between Aragon and his mine
stood the Texas blood. Hooker had
been crowded to the wall, and he was
mad enough to fight.
The news of De Lancey's desertion
followed quickly after his f1ight-it
came over the federal wires in a re-
port to Manuel del Rey-but by the
time 1t got to Aragon that gentleman
was too late. They rode into camp
the next day-Aragon and the captain
OF the rurales-and at the first glimpse
Of that hated uniform Amigo was OF
like a buck. Bud went out sullenly
to meet them, his black mood showing
in his lowering eyes, and he halted
them by the savagery of his cursing.

snarled. advancing threateningly upon
the paling Aragon. this makes three
times you've come into my camp and

into Spanish. Take that gun of?-do

So violent and unexpected was his
assault that 1t threw Aragon into a
panic. and even Manuel del Rey soft
ened his manner as he inquired into
the cause.

and when Hooker leaped to his feet
the Mexican scrambled up and rushed
madly for the creek.
But. though Bud was free, the bat
tie had turned against him. for in the
brief interval of his fight the other
two Mexicans had run for their guns.
The instant he rose they covered him.
Their chief. who by some miracle had
escaped Buds shot. gave shout for
them to halt. Cheated of his victim at
the first he was claiming the right to

ministers, Saints, living or dead, in
dulgences, scapulas, beads, penance,
human confessionais, or anything
else, any sincere soul can find Christ
who will forgive all sin, and give
grace to the soul to lead a new and
godward life
Once, standing in st. Peters, at
Rome, | saw a tragedy 1T was this
l saw woman go into confessional
box. She was crying when she en-
tered it. l loitered in the throng
till she left the confessional. She
was still weeping. She went out
and down the great columned-way
and took a car. I got on the same
car, by chance, and got off at the
same place near my hotel. But I
noticed she almost ran toward the
chapel of the "Sca1a Santa" she was
still weeping. The streets were
thronged, SO, 1 loitered unnoticed to
the door of the church where many
were looking at the reputed, but
falsely labeled, ''Scala Santa
Holy Steps," and I saw this weep
ing woman go up the long flight
crawling on her knees. She came
down the other side, and climbed
them again. Then, with a look of
despair on her face, still weeping,
she went out into the throng, and
disappeared from view.
By chance in that throng that
day, nine years ago, I saw that wo-
man of a broken heart. [ know not
what her sorrow was, but she was
seeking soul-rest. She went to
confessional box in great marble
gold-gflded st. Peters, under the
very shadow of the Vatican throne
She evidently poured out her woe to
the priest in that confessional He
evidently told her to go across the
city and climb twice the "Scala
Santa" on her knees. This she did
as hidden by the priest, and went
away still heart broken and weep
ing. It was not in St. Peters
church, nor st. Peters confessional,
nor the words of a priest in st. Pc
ter's, nor in climbing on her knees
the long flight of falsely so-called
Sacred Steps" to find rest unto her
soul. She was seeking Christ, but
under false teaching and paganistic
superstition she found a confess
sional, priest and the "Sacred
Steps," and went away weeping
without finding Christ. Who alone
could give her peace. And as
thought of all that, 1 thought of the
CLOSED BIBLE OF ROME, and of
the saying of Mary Magdalene, who,
when the angels at the sepudchre
asked: why weepest thou?" Ans
wered: BECAUSE they have taken
away my Lord and I know not where
they have laid Him." John 2O:12.
And again, thought of His words:
Come unto Me all We that labor
and are heavy laden and l will give
20 urest."
o Thou only giver of heart-rest,
may nothing hide Thee from any
troubled heart!

He says: ''The enormities of this
superstition, sacrilege, and simony
lie wholly with the Papacy The
Councils of Constance and Trent, the
Commission of Reform and many
others have pleaded with the Popes
to abolish these iniquities, but to no
avail"
He closes his chapter on this sub
sect by saying:
Not within the memory of living
men have indulgences been so be-
Wndering and meaningless in their
prodigality as under the present
Pope, Plus x" And the last great
words of this great Spiritual priest
of Rome are these:
Where, in all this mad mathe-
MATES, is there aught of the religion
of Jesus Christ? How discover be-
meath all this Pagan superstition any
suggestion of Spiritual worship?
How does it differ from the revolv-
ing home of the Buddhist, or the
mummery Of the Medicine Man?
Can these rushing to church for
tolse QUOTES, these calculations,
these wearings of cloth badges and
carrying Of bare beads be a reasona-
bic service to the awful Infinite?
Did Christ ever countenance them?
Bookkeeping Gods, .<amulet-pIeasing
Gods are gone. Humanity will wor-
ship Christ alone for ever-more!'
These are words not Of anti-Catho-
lie papers, not of this speaker, but
of a great priest in the Roman
Catholic church who sees the folly
and sin of the traditions and super
stitions Of men and women and is
trying to save his church from utter
ruin
Yet this great, scholarly, spiritual
priest, Of the Twentieth Century,
dare not sign his name to his great
book lest his church anathematize
him even unto death Think of it,
my Christian countrymen!
Christ's Way.
The whole scheme of salvation by
penance, pilgrimages, indulgences,
and human works, gifts, and suffer-
ing, is unscriptural. fBy grace We
are saved, through faith, and that
not of yourselves, it is the gift of
God. Not of works, lest any man
should boast" So, over against all
of this unscripturaI, un-Christian,
superstitious, paganistic, blockading
bulwark of human invention that
hides the soul from it's Christ place
Christ's own matchless words for all
the sons and daughters of man
Protestant, Catholic and Pagan.
Hear them:
Come unto Me all We that labor
and are heavy laden, and I will give
you rest.
Take My yoke upon you and learn
of Me; for I am meek and low1y in
heart: and We shall find rest unto
your souls. For my yoke is easy
and my burden is light -
In this simple, matchless, world
wise, age-long invitation, Christ, the
Son Of God and Son of Man, flung
the divine challenge to all other
teachers, and to every other scheme,
and of Himself offered soul-rest and
peace of heart to all who will come
to Him or take His yoke.
How, then, does one come to
Christ? Thus: If there is known
sin in your heart-thought, or life,
or in both, silently confess it to
Christ alone, with true sorrow for
it. That is repentance and confess
sion to God.
Then, trust yourself by faith to
Christ, and read His beautiful words

FARMERS LACK ORGANIZATION
Good Roads Movement to Have Much
to Do With Bringing Interests
Into State Of Colidarity.

Farmers are largely in the ascen-
dency in THE country. What they lack
is organization. II farmers were as
thoroughly organized as other occupa-
tons are, they could carry on all the
functions of government to suit them
selves. says the Burlington Post. But
farmers do not lend themselves read
lily to organizations. Their occupa-
ton is by nature one of isolation.
When, finally, they do organize, they
will be able to name q succession OF
presidents. The agricultural press Is
beginning to talk in this strain. 1t Is
suggested that it Is q far cry from a
condition. where the farmer lacks or.
ganization to nationally market his
crops to one where he can dictate to
political parties. The good roads
movement is going to have much to
do with bringing the farm interests
into a state of solidarity. while there
are numerous other agencies at work
at the present time tending in the
same direction. 1t will not be very
long time until the effect of this or.
ganization is felt much more than 1t is
today.

Marketing AND PRODUCTION


am reminded Of an observation
that l recently made on the sweet po-
tato market, writes Prof. Charles Aus
tin in the Progressive Farmer. In a
certain town north of Beaumont, Tex.
short distance, l found a group OF
farmers loading sweet potatoes at 80
cents a bushel, weighed, less three
per cent tare and paying seven cents
apiece for sacks which held about two
bushels. The next day / found sweet
potatoes selling on the open market
in Houston, that was the market to
which these sweet potatoes had been
sent, and at $1.00 per bushel, meas
ured, and every one who has bought
sweet potatoes knows that in measur-
ing in smaller measures the bushel
will more than measure out.
On the same market on the day be-
fore Thanksgiving, l found California
celery selling at ten cents. 12h cents
and Is cents a single bunch. The Cali
fornia people who shipped that celery
told me that it netted the growers two
cents and two and one-half cents a
bunch.
These two cases of the sweet potato
and celery present q real marketing
problem in SO far as the transporta-
ton and distributing agencies are con-
cerned. and / believe that in an In
stance of this kind the contemplated
marketing bureau of the federal gov
eminent will find one Of its largest
fields of usefulness.
But II the sweet potato grower or
the celery grower finds that he cannot
produce these products as well, or as
cheaply. as his neighbors can. he will
have a problem which Is almost
wholly a question Of efficiency in
production. and not q question Of the
market The same can be said of
cotton or any other product, and on
this question of efficient production
lies the large field of usefulness of
the Texas Industrial congress and the
work that you have been doing.
