| Esteban covertly appraised his sis
ter's charms, but respecting her terror
of Cobo he did not speak his thoughts.
He was certain, however, that Rosa
knew, as well as he, what motive lay
behind the fellows tireless persecu-
tons of the valley dwellers; for, in
| spite of their isolation, stories of Cobo
had reached the refugees that
had rendered both the boy and the girl
| sick with apprehension. The colonel,
! it seemed, had nearly died of his
machete wound, and on recovering he
had sworn to exterminate the wasps
that had stung him. He had sworn
other oaths, too, oaths that robbed Es-
teban Of his sleep.
Esteban idolized his. sister; her 10y
atty to him was the most precious thing
of his life. Therefore, the thought of
that swarthy ruffian hurting herAdown
as hound hangs to the traiIsofsa doe
awoke in him terrible angera9 Sec
ond only to his hatred for the guerrilla
chief was his bitterness against the
traitor, Pancho Cuefo, who had capped
his villainy by setting this new peril
upon them; and since Rosa's safety
and his own honor called for the death
of both men, he had sworn that some
| how he would effect it. 1t was, of
course, difficult matter to get at the
colonel of volunteers, but Cueto still
! lived in the midst of his blackened
| fields, and it was against him that the
boy was now planning to launch his
| first blow.
The thought of the hated Cobo had
momentarily distracted Esteban's
thoughts. Now he collected them and
said:
"Wait! I am forgetting something.
/ See what Lacret's men handed me;
i they are posted from one end of the
island to the other He displayed a
printed bando, or proclamation, signed
by the new captain general and read
as follows:

that was the sequel to those printed
words of ''Weyler the Butcher" which
Esteban read.

Rosa inquired.
"Bless you, this is already two weeks
old!' her brother told her.
"Why, then, it means that wen be

Exactly! But we sha'n't be caught,
Ell? Let the timid ones take fright at

the paper in his hand and dropped it.
Meanwhile I shall proceed toward my
settlement with Pancho Cueto." His
very careless confidence gave Rosa
courage.

CHAPTER X.
o'ReiIIy's Plans Fall.

In the days that followed his call on
Sgnacio Alyarado, O'Reilly behaved so
openly that the secret service agent
detailed to watch him relaxed his vigil
lance. Manifestly this O'Reilly was
a harmless person. But the spy did
not guess how frantic Johnnie was be-
coming at the delay, how he inwardly
chafed and fretted when two weeks
had rolled by and still no signal had
come. Then, too, his money was run
ming low.
At last, however, the day arrived
when the man with the gray necktie
raised his hat and wiped his brow as
he passed the Isia de Cuba. Johnnie
could scarcely hold himself in his
chair. By and by he rose, stretching
himself, and sauntered after the fell
low. For several blocks he kept him
in sight, but without receiving any
further sign.
Without glance over his shoulder
the man turned into large, walled in
closure When Johnnie followed he
found himself in one of the old Gene
teries. Ahead of him, up a shady ave-
nue. bordered with trees, the stranger
hurried; then he swerved to his left,
and when O'Reilly came to the point
where he had disappeared there was
nobody in sight. Apprehending that
he had made some mistake in the sig
nal, O'Reilly FASTENED down the walk.
Then at last, to his great relief, he
heard sibilant:
"Psst! Psst!"
1t came from behind screen of
shrubbery, and there he found the Gu
ban waiting. The latter began rap
idly:
"Our plans are complete. Listen
closely. One week from today, at ten
O'Clock in the morning, you must be
in Manin's drug store. Directly across
the street you win see two negroes

rise out of their purple haze. When
