holding out his black hand; 81 go this
way!" And he pointed along the ridge.
"But why?" said Bud, still at loss
to account for his haste. Then, seeing
the reticence in the Indians eyes, he
thrust out his hand in return.

CHAPTER XXI.

On the morning after they had
laughed at the comic paper and decid.
ed that all the world was fair, Hooker
and Amigo were squatting by the fire
and eating a man 's-size breakfast.
The creek, swollen by yesterdays
torrential rain, had settled to a rivu-
let The wind had not risen and the
sun was just over the hill when, with
rush and scramble, Amigo threw
down his cup and was off in flash for
the rocks.
A moment later two men rode down
the canyon, and then two more, and
two more. 1t was a column of men,
all armed with rifles, and they cast
envious eyes at Copper Bottom as they
halted before the camp. AS for Bud,
he saluted gravely, for he knew them
for what they were.
These were the lost forces of Ber-
nardo Bravo and Salazar, Rojas and
the other bandit chiefs, and they
marched, as he we'll knew, upon For
tuna. They marched quietly, and the
great whistle had not blown.
1t would make rich prize, Fortuna,
if they could take it by surprise! The
ransom for the Spanish haciendados
alone would amount to thousands of
dollars, and the mine-owners could
afford to pay anything in order to save
their works.
A box of dynamite under the giant
concentrator and the money would be
produced at once, and yet the scoun-
drels halted at a one-man camp to
steal single horse.
A flicker of scorn passed over Hook
er's face as the leader came dashing
up, but the Texan greeted him with
slow smile.

think Of Bernardo Bravo and his men?
They captured the last up train from
Fortuna; loaded all the men into the
ore cars and empty coaches; and,
while the federals were still in their
barracks, the train ran clear into the
station and took the town by storm.
And eight days later, at shutdown,
the federals took it back. All, there
was awful slaughter averted, senior!
But for the fact that the fuse went
out two hundred Yaqui Indians who
led the charge would have been blown
into eternity.
Eyes, so great was the charge of
dynamite that the rebels had laid in
their mine that not a house in Aqua
Negra would have been left standing
if the fuse had done its work. Two
tons of dynamite! Think of that, my
friend!
But these rebels were as ignorant
Of its power as they were of laying
train. The Yaquis walked into the
town at shutdown and found it de-
serted-every man, woman and child
had fled to Gadsden and the rebels had
fled to the west.
But listen, here was the way it
happened actually, and not as COM
mon report has it, for the country is
all in an uproar and the real facts
were never known. When Bernardo
Bravo captured the town of Aqua Ne
gra the people acclaimed his hero.
He sent word to the junta at Ell
Paso and set up a new form of gov
eminent. All was enthusiasm, and
