CHAPTER XIX.
The Water-Cure.

Without an instant's hesitation Dave
6ung himself past Rosa and through
the inner door.
Jose Sanchez met him with a shout !;
the shock Of their collision overbore
the lighter man, and the two went
down together, arms and legs inter-
twined. The horse-breaker fired his
revolver blindly-a deafening explo-
zion inside those four walls-but he
was powerless against his antagonists
strength and ferocity. 1t required but
a moment for Law to master him, to
wrench the weapon from his grasp, and
then, with the aid Of Jose's silk neck
scarf, to bind his wrists tightly.
From the front OF the little house
came the crash Of a door violently
slammed as Rosa profted by the diver
Eton to kave herself.
When finally Jose stood, painting and
snarling. his back to the wall, Dave re-
garded Elm with sinister contraction
OF the lips that was almost a grin.

breath, 81 see you didn't go to the east

"What do you want of me?" Jose
managed to gasp.
There was a somewhat prolonged
silence, during which Dave continued
20 stare at his prisoner with that same
disquietfng expression. "Why did you
kill Don Eduardo?" he asked.
"I? Bah! Who says I killed him?"
Jose glared defiance. "Why are you
looking at me? Come! Take me to
Jail, if yOu think that will do any
good"

''No. A fire would be too easy, Jose."
"Eh?"
Without answer Dave strobe out Of
the room. He was back before his
prisoner could do more than wrench
at his bonds, and with him he brought
his lariat and his canteen.
"What are you going to doY Jose in

first time In his life Jose Sanchez feae
terror-a terror too awful to be en-
dured-and he made the sign.
He was no longer the insolent defer.
the challenger, but an imploring
wretch, whose last powers of resist
dnce had been completely shattered.
His frightened eyes were glued TO that
devilish vessel in which his manhood
had dissolved, the fear Of it made a
woman of him.
Slowly, in signs and whimpers, IN
agOnies Of reluctance, his story came;
his words were rendered almost incom-
nrehensible by his abyslnal fright.
When he he'd purgcd himself of his
secret Dave promptly unbound him;
then leaving him more than half dead.
he went to the telephone which con-
nected the pumping station with Las
Palmas and called up the ranch.
He was surprised when Blaze Jones
answered. Blaze, it seemed, had just
arrived, summoned by news of the
tragedy. The countryside had been
alarmed and search for Ed Austln's
slayer was being organized.
Call it off" Dave told him. sT've
got your man. Blaze suffered his
surprise and incredulity. II mean it.
It's Jose Sanchez, and he has con-
fessed. / want you to come here,
quick; and come alone, if you don't
mind. I need your help
Inside of ten minutes Jones piloted
his automobile into the clearing beside
the river, and, leaving his motor run
ming, leaped from the car.
Dave met him at the door Of the
Morales house and briefly told him the
story Of Jose's capture.
"Say! That's quick work. the
rancher cried, admiringly. ''Why, Ed
amt cold yet! You gave him the wa.

"Jose was hired for the work; he
laid for Ed Austin in the pecan grove
and shot him as he passed"
sHired! Why this hombre needs
quick hangin', don't he? told 'em at
Las Palmas that you'd rounded up the
guilty party, SO I reckon they'll be here
in few minutes. Well just stretch

ty some expense" Law shrugged. 'Do
what you like with him, butt isn't
necessary. He'll confess in regulation
form, I'm sure. had to work fast to
learn what became of MRS. Austin"
"Miz Austin? What's happened to
herr"
Dawes voice changed: there was a
sudden quickening Of his words.
They've got her, Blaze They waited
until they had her safe before they
killed Ed"
"'TheyY Who are you talkin'
about?"
Il mean Longorio and his outfit. He's
got her over yonder." Dave flung out
a trembling hand toward the river.
Seeing that his nearer failed to COM
prehend, he explained, swiftly: "He's
crazy about her-got one Of those
Mexican infatuations-and you know
what that means. He couldn't steal
her from Las Palmas-she wouldn't
have anything to do with him-so he
used that old cattle deal as an excuse
to get her across the border. Then he
put Ed out Of the way. She went Of
her own accord, and she didn't tell
Austin, because they were having
trouble. She's gone to La Feria, Blaze
LA Feria! Then she's in for it,
Dave nodded his agreement; for the
first time Blaze noted how white and
set was his frient's face
sLongorio must have foreseen what
was coming" Dave went on. ''That
country's adame; Americans aren't
safe over there. IL war is declared, a
good many Of them will never be heard
from. He knows that. He's got her
safe. She can't get OUT
Blaze was very grave when next he
spoke. '.Dave, this is bad-bad.
can't understand what made her go.
Why, she must have been out of her
head. But we've got to do something.
We've got 30 burn the wires to Wash
ington-yes, and to Mexico City. We
must get the government to send SOL
diers after her. What have we got 'em
for, anyhow"
washington won't do anything.
What can be done when there are thou
sands of American women in the same
danger? What steps can the govern
ment take with diplomatic relations
suspended? Those greasers are filling
their jails with our people-rounding
'em up for the day of the big break.
No, Longorio saw it all coming-he's
no fool. He's got her; she's in there
trapped"

CHAPTER XVliI--Continued.

Years Of experience had taught him
to be always alert, even during his mo-
mepts of deepest preoccupation, and
so, from force of habit, when he came
to the pumphouse road he carefully
scanned it. In the dust were fresh
footprints leading toward the river.
Now he knew this road to be seldom
used, and therefore he wondered who
could be riding it at gallOp in this
blistering midday heat. A few rods
farther on and his quick eye detected
something else-some tiny object that
brought him from his saddle. Out of
the rut he picked cigarette butt, the
Are of which was cold but the paper of
which was still wet from the smokers
lips. He examined it carefully; then
he remounted and rode on, bordering
It's significance.
Dave loped out of the thicket and
straight across the clearing to the
Morales house. Leaving Montrosa's
reins hanging, he opened the door and
entered without knocking. Rosa ap-
peared in the opening to another room,
her eyes wide with fright at this ap-
partition, and Dave raw that she was
dressed in her finest, as if for holiday
Dr. for journey.
where's your father?" he demanded.
"He's gone to Sangre de Cristo.
What do you want?"
"When did he go?'
"This morning, early. He"
"Who's been here since he left?"
Rosa was recovering from her first
surprise, and now her black brows
1rew together in anger. mo one has
come. You are the first. And have
you no manners to stride into a re-
pecteble house,"
Dave broke in harshly: "Rosa, you're
yfng. Jose Sanchez has been here
within an hour. Where is he?" When
the girl only grew whittier and raised a
hand to her breast, he stepped toward
her, crying, answer mel"
Rosa recoiled, and the breath caught
"a her throat like a sob. "PH tell you
aothing," she said in a thin voice. Then
she began to tremble. "Why do you
want JOSEF"
"You know why. He killed Don
Eduardo, and then he rode here. Come !!
know everything"
"Liesl Lies!'' Rosa's voice grew
5hrill. "Out of this house! I know
you. 1t was you who betrayed Panilo,
and his blood is on your hands, as
sassin u With the last word she made
40 If to retreat, but Dave was too
quick; he seized her, and for an in
slant they struggled breathlessly.
Dave had reasoned beforehand that
bis only chance Of discovering any
thing from this girl lay in utterly ter
eorizing her and In profting by her
aFst panic; therefore he pressed his
advantage. He succeeded better than
he had dared to hope.
"You know who killed Senior 3D." he
cried, fiercely. ''The fortune-teller read
your plans, and there is no use to deny
It,"
Rosa screamed again; she writhed !;
she tried to sink her teeth into her cap
tors flesh. In her body was the
strength of full-grown man, and Dave
could hardly hold her. But suddenly,
IS the two scuff1ed, from the back room
of the house came a sound which
caused Dave to release the girl as alb
ruptly as he had seized her-it was the
clink and tinkle of Mexican spurs upon
a wooden floor.
