fcer, speaking with military tormality,
but it is my duty to inform you that
the Senior De Lancey has left Fortuna.
Last night he did me the honor to en-
list in my company of rurales-he is
now On his way to the north to assist
in guarding the railroad"
WHAT" shouted Bud, hardly able
to believe his ears. But when the cap
tain repeated it he no longer doubted
his Spanish.
But why?" he cried; why did he
join the rurales?"
"Ah, senor," shrugged Del Rey. was
he not a Mexican citizen? Very we'll,
then; he could be summoned for mill
tary service. But the circumstances
were these. Your friend came yester'
day to this town, where I am at pres
ent military commander, and made an
unprovoked assault upon my person
For this, according to law, he should
have been shot at sunrise. But, not
wishing to occasion unpleasantness
with the Americans now residing here
l offered him the alternative Of mill
tary service. He is now enlisted as q
rural for a term of five years"
Five years." exclaimed Hooker;
and then, instead Of starting the ex
pected rough-house-upon which the
rural guards were prepared to Jump on
his back-he simply threw down his
hat and cursed. Not anyone in par
t%icular, but everything in general;
and at the end of it he turned once
more upon the watchful captain.
"Dispenseme, %senor." he said, this
is the truth, Is it?"
Isl, senor," returned Captain del
Rey. But before leaving with his de-
tachment your friend wrote this letter,
which he requested me to deliver to
you"
He offered with a flourish a sealed
envelope, from which Bud extracted a
short note.
Dear Bud:
When you get this I shall be far away
I must have been mad. but it Is too late
now. Rather than be executed I lave
enlisted as a rural. But I shall try to be
brave for her sake. Take care OF her
Bud4for me! PHIL.
Bud read it through again and medi
tated ponderously. Then he folded II
up and thrust it in his pocket.
N"Muchas g~racias, senior captain" he
said, saluting and turning upon his
heel; and while all the Mexicans mar
veled at the inscrutable ways of Amer
icanos, he mounted and rode away.

ONE OF THE CURIOUS THINGS
So Remarkable an Incident OF Life
That Comment Really Seemed to
Be Useless.

Its curious about things, isn't IT,
said the man who had something on
his mind and wanted to talk.
YES" replied the man addressed
but without interest.
Its curious how a fellow gets into
a box and then out again"
Yes"
"You know the Widow Spicer. OF
course?
"Oh, yes"
II heard last month that she had
come into $4,000. Sat right down
and proposed marriage by letter and
rushed the letter, off,"
Well"
Didn't hear from her in answer.
Here's the letter. Forgot to stamp 1t,
and it went to the dead letter office.
Just got it back. Suppose it had
reached the widow and she had &C.
copied me?"
What do you mean"
why, a week ago l heard that she
didn't have ten cents to her name.
Curious, amt it,"
Yes, but I can beat it. l married
the Widow Spicer five days ago.
Gee whiz!"
And instead of having $4,000 she
had $4,000"
"Say-say!" exclaimed the other,
as he threw up his hands; but III
could get no farther. 1t was too Gu
riouS.

SETBACK FOR THE OPTIMIST
According to Pesslmlst, He Had
Failed Utterly to See Things In
Their Proper Light.
(To BE C~oNTINUED.)

Look at this, will you?" exclaimed
the cheerful real estate al IN this
paper there Is a record Of eighty
seven marriage licenses issued yes
terday."
well, what OF It?" said his part
ner, the pessimist of the firm.
What of it?" echoed the other.
Cant you see? Those eighty-seven
marriage licenses NEAR eighty-seVen
marriages. The eighty-seven mar
riages will lead to eighty-seven in.
quiries for houses, flats, or at least
eligible apartments. It's bound to
stimulate business in our line and
we'll get u share"
That doesn't follow at all. Those
eighty-seven licenses represent 174
persons. don't they?"
YES"
probably all adults?"
Undoubtedly. What Of it,"
Nothing" growled the pessimist;
Except that TIA persons who have
hitherto occupied TIA apartments will
hereafter occupy eighty-seven, and
that amt helping our business any.
You make me tired"

was what he had expected, In a way,
and his code babe him keep his hands
of. But the next morning, when the
evil was either AVOIDED or done, he
thrust his rifle into its sling and start
ed for the town. At the jail he halted
and gazed in through the windows
then he rode up to the hotel and, asked
for Phil.
What? Have you not heard?"
clamored Don Juan. "Ah, it is most
unfortunate-I would not have had 1t
happen for the world"
"What?" inquired Bud succinctly.
why, the quarrel-the encounter
with Captain del Rey! I did my best,
l assure you, to prevent 1t, for the
town has been put under martial law
and the captain is in full charge. They
q~uarreled over the favor Of a lady, and
now your friend Is In JAIL"
Il didn't see him when 1 come BY"
observed Hooker.
"Ah, no-not in the carcel-in the
Quartet, the guardhouse Of the
~rurales!"
Much oblfged!" nodded Bud, and
rode on through the town. The street
Of the Mexican quarter was filled
with strange people hurrying to and
