their ammunition they had the town at
their mercy, and the first thing that
they would demand would be the refu-
gees in the big house.
Before that could be permitted the
Americans would probably take a
hand in the fight, for, while the great
majority of the women in the house
we're Mexican, there were a few
Americans, and they would be pro-
tected regardless of international COM
plications. But Gracia Aragon was
not an American, and she could not
claim the protection of these country
men of his.
The possession of the town; the
arms of the defenders; food, clothing
and horses to ride-none of these
would satisfy them They would de-
.pand the rich Spanish landowners to
| be held for ransom, the women first
| Of all. And of all those women hud-
died up in the casa grande not one
would bring bigger ransom than Ora
cha Aragon.
Bud pondered upon the outcome as
the emissaries wrangled on the hill
side, and then he went back to the,
corral to make sure that his horse was
safe. Copper Bottom, too, might be
held for ransom. But, knowing the
rebels as he did, Hooker foresaw
different fate, and rather than see him
become the mount of some rebel chief
tain he had determined, If the town
surrendered, to make dash.
Riding by night and hiding in the
hills by day he could get to the border
in two days. All he needed was little
jerked beef for the trip and he would
be ready for anything.
So he hurried down to the hotel
again and was just making sack of
food fast to his saddle when he heard
noise behind him and turned to face
Aragon. For two days the once
naughty Don Cipriano had skunk about
like sick cat, but now he was headed
for Gracia's big roam, and the look in
his eyes betrayed his purpose.
where you going?' demanded
Hooker in English, and at the gruff
challenge the Spaniard stopped in his
tracks. The old, hunted look came
back into his eyes, he seemed to
shrink before the stern gaze of the
Texan, and, as the memory Of his past
misdeeds came over him, he turned as
if to fee.
But there was smile, an amused
and tolerant smirk, about the Ameri-
cans mouth, and even for that look
of understanding the harried hacien-
dado seemed to thank him. He was
broken now, thrown down from his
pedestal of arrogance and conceit, and
as Hooker did not offer to shoot him
at sight he turned back to him like a
lost dog that seeks but kind word.
Bud knew that Aragon was entirely
at his mercy, that fear had clutched
the once arrogant Spaniard by the
throat, and 1t was almost worth the
anxiety he felt for this mans daugh.
ter to see the father cowed. Aragon
crawled closer to Bud as If for the
protection he could not get from his
own people.
"Ah, senor" he whined, "your par.

of meat-"you are going, too? All, my

up hot food from the hotel, where Don
Juan de Dios stood heroically at his
post. Let bullets come and GO, Don
Juan kept his cooks about him, and
to those who had doubted his valor his
coffee was answer enough.

rallied, as Bud refreshed himself be-
tween trips, "aint you going to take
any up to those women? Don't drink
so much coffee now, but give it to the
men who fight!"
"Ump-um," grunted Bud with grin;
"they got skinful of mescal already!
What they need is another carload Of
ammunition to help 'em shoot their
first rebel"
81 thought you said they wouldn't
fight" twitted Don Juan. "This is the
battle of Fortuna that l was telling
you about last week."
"Sure!" answered Bud, "and over
there is the dead!"
He pointed to a riot of mescal bot
ties that marked the scene of the
nights rotations, and Don Juan gave
him up as hopeless.
"A pile of bottles usually represent
the casualty list in a Mexican fight,"
added Bud as Don Juan moved away.
But, jest as he would, Bud saw that
the situation was serious, for the fool
hardy Sonorans had already emptied
their cartridge-belts, and their guns
were no better than clubs. Unless the

as if to consider what would tempt
him and then suddenly he raised his
head.
"What is it you wish above every
thing?" he questioned eagerly. Your

me to the line-protect me from my
enemies-and the papers are yours"
"Have you got them with you" in

"Then you will take them" faltered
Aragon as Hooker started to go. You
will take them and leave me for Ber-

men to do his dirty work needs no
protection from me. You understand
that-no? Then listen again. l am

He touched his gun as he spoke and
strobe out into the open, where he
beckoned the mineral agent from the
crowd. A word in his ear and they
went down the hill together, while Don
Cipriano watched from above. Then,
as they turned into the office, Aragon
spat out a curse and went to seek

WAR OPENED ON
BOOkMAKERS;
5 MEN HELD
BroyIes Binds Prisoners Over to
Trial, Declaring Gambling
on Ponies Must Stop.

Vigorous war against an alleged
gang Of boolSmakers who have been
laying odds on the Charleston and
Juarez horse races, has been declared
by Chief of Police Beavers and Re-
corder Nash Broyles following the
action of the Recorder in holding for

arrested and arralgned before him by
Policemen Watson and Milan late
Tuesday afternoon.

Atlanta must stop" said Judge
Broyles, land l intend to do all l
can TO stop It. The holding of the
FIVE men to the Grand Jury was only
an indication Of what will happen
every time this sort of offender is
brought before me, except that here
after / will be even more severe"
Chief Beavers said Wednesday that
he is taking active steps toward
stamping out the gang and preventing
their operations.

81 have assigned squad of plain
clothes men to the downtown dis
trict," he said, with special instruc-
tions to watch for violations of the
bookmaking ordinance. There seems
to be an organized gang of men in
Atlanta who make it a business to
fleece people with bets on the races.
I have received numerous complaints
of late, indicating that such a gang
exists, and we intend to make every
effort to break it up. There can be
no gambling on horse races in At
lanta, and it will go hard with the
men we catch doing it."
The FIVE men who were bound
over by Recorder Broyles Tuesday
were:

What Is WOman's
Beauty But Health
And the Basis of Her Health
and Vigor Lies in the Careful
Regulation of the Bopels

II womans beauty depended upon
cosmetics, every woman would be
a picture Of loveliness. But beauty
lies deeper than that II lies in
health. In the majority of cases
the basis of health, and the cause
of sickness, can be traced to the
action of the bowels.
The headaches, the lassitude, the
sallow skin and the lusterless eyes
are usually due to constipation So
many things that women do habit
ually conduce to this trouble. They
do not eat carefully, they eat indi-
gestible foods because the foods
are served dalntily and they do not
exercise enough. But whatever the
particular cause may be, 1t is i'm
portant that the condition should be
corrected.
An ideal remedy for women, and
one especially suited TO their deli
cate requirements, S DIR. Caldwelrs

Taste. sight and smell all have an in
fluence upon digestion. II one eats
something that does not taste good one
retards the work of digestion because
the juices necessary to digest the thing
eaten will not flow in correct proper
ton.
On the other hand, good food will al
ways excite the taste through actual
contact with the food in the mouth or
through the sight or sense of smell, un-
less the stomach knows that 1t can not
digest 1t.
We thus readily learn that the simple
act of giving nature the digestive fluids
she needs, will bring back all the Joys
of good eating, and tasting, smelling and
seeing dainty dishes will excite a rous-
ing appetite.

posed of natural ingredients that a

a wild delight. They enrich the stom-
ach juices quickly so that If you want
