to share by poor breakfast my
teniente said, and Don Isfdro sat
down, and they ate till had no
patience left. But at last Don
lsidro pushed back his chair and
said. Now, teniente milo, what
is this wonderful news?'
MY teniente pushed back his
chair and offered his cigaret case
to Don Isidro. Take a long one,'
he said, one long enough to last
our talk out So Don Isidro took
an entrelargos, and | held a
match for him and then he smil-
ed through the smoke and said:
Now for our news, teniente milo,
die of suspense
My teniente put the little
packet which Don Isidro had
given me on the table, and he
looked at Don Isidro. And l think
Don Isidro knew then that the
game was finished. But he was a
brave one, | will say that, If he
was a fool. He looked at the
packet, and he looked at the tent
ente, and he looked at me and
said, Traitor!'
. Let me urge you, my friend,
my teniente said, to smoke slow
| iy and without excitement, for
when that cigaret is finished you
will be finished Also
Don Isidro's hand shook a lit
tie, but he was not afraid. You
are the winner again, asesino
mio,' he said. Have the traitor
there bring some water, and I
will take the sleeping-powder-
when I am done smoking
" 1t is against the law my
teniente said, to let you kill
yourself. Fermin, tell Raymundo
to buckle on his revolver and be
ready to escort Don Isidro down
to San Pablo
Mi teniente,' | said, does
one call a Macabebes a traitor and
ask him to kill his officer for
nothing?'
g Get your own revolver,
then, he said.
When l came Dack Don ISL
dro's cigaret was getting short.
They both stood up and the lieu
tenant said. 'Adois, Don Isidro.
An easy journey to you, and a
welcome in-San Pablo. l need
not tell you, Fermin, to be very
careful that he does not escape
$50 we went away-and my
teniente never knew that I made
Don Isidro carry along a spake l
saw in the guard room. One does
not call a Macabebes a traitor for
nothing. There is no more wood,
and it gets late and cold"
A last ember of the fire flam-
ed up, and Fermin Majusay turn
ed his face quickly from the tell
tale light. 1T was a long story"
he said, and loosened his revolver
in the holster. "Sleep without
fear" he said. mo one will trou-
BILE us when / am here"

young 1t was not hard to make
him think that I was angry with
the teniente. After a few days he
met me in the Plaza and said: I
am very sorry that the teniente
struck you, Fermin, for he is a
friend of mine, and I hope no
harm will come to him. / have
heard that a Macabebe never fol-
gives blow, but / hope you will
be patient
What a fool that young Isl
dro was! l looked at him and l
said: If a Macabebe forgives a
blow as soon as a Bisayan for
gives the death of his pariente,
there is no danger for your
friend
He looked at me very long
and hard, and / knew / had him.
He put his hand In his pocket
and pulled out little paper.
There is a sleeping-powder in
that he said. The teniente will
not strike you again If you do
not wish it,
That young fool knew moth
ing at all-like a baby. l took
the paper home and told my tent
ente, and we gave some of the
powder to monkey, and he
curled up and died very quick.
That was at night, and the tent
ente looked at the dead monkey
and the paper, and he laughed
just the way he did the morning
the guard led In Don Augusta.
Next morning l was putting
the breakfast on the table, and
my teniente was standing at the
window of the sala, looking down
at the Plaza. And all at once I
heard him laugh, not very loud,
and he called: Hoy, Don Isl
dro! Have the complacency to
come up, amigo. I have news for
you And soon Don Isidro came
up.
