Stairway had already recognized the
voice coming to them family from
a great fear for Teresa had already
leaped out upon him, and he had
flung open the door, running toward
her rooms.
"Remember!" shouted Tore after
him, eff I die"
"Gaucho, Esteban, come with me!'
called Stairway, his voice cutting
through Torres swift words. "The
rest of you stay with your prisoners.
Do not harm them-until 1 come back.
They alone can help us save your
master and mistress. But if they try
to escape then shoot them like dogs!"
And he was gone, running swiftly
through the long hall, his words
floating back across his shoulder, the
heavy boots of Gaucho and Esteban
pounding just behind him.
Door after door he flung open as
he raced on through the darkness,
waiting for no candle. He came at
last to the broad stairway leading up
to Teresa's rooms, Gaucho and Este
ban at his heels.
Here there was light, a candle burn
ing low upon the floor at the side Of
Pedro's couch: And Pedro
"They have killed him." 1t was
Gaucho's voice in a little expression
less grunt.
Pedro lay upon the floor at the side
Of his couch, his body half covered
with the blankets which had fallen
with him, his face very white, a smear
of blood across temple and cheek.
Celestino,th the vaquero who had spent
the night at Pedro's side, was not to
be seen.
Stairway, rushing up the stairs, his
revolver in his hand, bestowed only
one look upon the unconscious Pedro
and rushed at the door of Teresa's
room.
The door was locked. He called.
There was no answer. Everything
was perfectly still. He knocked at
the door loudly, calling again. And
now, when silence answered him, q
great fury swept through him, his
brain seemed to be on fire, his voice
seemed to him to come from a great
distance as he shouted for an ak.
The AK came, but he had not waited
for 1t. A heavy chair had splintered
against the oak panels, but the panels

fury Of his attack. They burst at

to hear. "Twenty thousand dollars

word as a gentleman that when the sun
is up you will rush to me, trying to
make terms, and I shall then answer

disturbed Stairway. He had a feeling

saw them watchful, armed, eager for

his own fears, he went to his room.
His windows faced westward and to
the south.
He stood before one of them which
looked to the border, half ready to ex.

olive trees.
He saw the olive trees sway to the
little, warm wind from the south
watched his window curtains pulsine
slowly like one breathing; noted how
the moonlight gilded the ripe fruit
upon the orange trees, and, with a last
look toward the eastern wing of the

out among roses, he jerkesl down his

were these: "Is there a large force
of men backing Tore and Juarez? Are
they alone in the thing?" And there
was only one way to answer them.
AS the afternoon slipped by and
dusk came down upon them, sweet and
warm, through the groves of orange
and olive trees, Teresa sent word to
the mems quarters for all, excepting
a half dozen Of them, to come to the
house.
Those not coming in were to remain
on guard over the corrals into which
the saddle-horses had been herded, and
to serve as sentinels along the bor-
der. The guard over Tore and Juarez
was doubled; the two men were dis
armed and assigned to touches upon
the opposite side Of the drawing-room.
Doors were fastened, windows
locked, shutters drawn, and the haci-
.enda was like an old fortress in time
of siege.
81 do not anticipate an attack" STAN
way smiled into Teresa's grave face.
s'Surely the insurgents are not looking
for complications with this country.
But we are taking no chances. 1t would
take a whole regiment Of them to trou-
BILE us here tonight"
"But are we doing right" she whis-
pered a little fearfully. eff we gave
them the money-it is so small a part
of papa grande's estate-he would be
out of all danger. And as it is"
ut is a bluff Of Torres, pure and
simple" he told her. eff anything
should happen to Senior de la Guerra,
Tore and Juarez would not last ff-
teen minutes with your little. army of
retainers, senorita- They talk big,
both Of them, but I am not afraid"
But when she had given him her
hand and a wan smile by the way of
"Buenas noches," he was not content
until he himself had seen to the watch
fulness of the men stationed here and
there throughout the big house. And,
by the way of final %precaution, he saw
that another man slept that night at
Pedro's side, in front of the senorita's
door, and that both men were armed.
He had not again gone to where
Dempton fumed and worried in the IL
brary. 1t was his thought to leave the
lawyer to chew upon the cud of sus-
picion his own parting words had given
him, to make the night long and IN
eventful for him, so that his trembling
little soul might have time for thought.
1t was late when Teresa needed his
urging and went to her Dom He left
her at the foot of the stairs leading up
to her chambers; saw Pedro preparing
to spend the night at her doorway, and
then went to his own room, decided to
sleep until the stiller hours of the
night came; then to superintend in
person. the watch which was being
kept throughout the house.
On his way to the wing of the build
ing which had been given over to him,
he passed through the drawing-room
for the last time.

couch. Half a dozen of Gaucho's va
queros, all armed, were scattered
about the room, their quick eyes show

Women Of Today Seek to
Change the Mar
rage Vow

The latest move of the most mod
ern" woman is to assail the wordine
o fthc time-honored marriage vow ir
which the clergyman asks the bride
if she will love. honor and obey
her lawfully welded husband
A number af instances are on rec
ord where women have refused in the
ceremony. declaring they would not
bow to man as superior and mas
er.
A striking example in high lift of
us tendency was reported in a re-
t cablegram from London This
said:
Princess Patricia, daughter of the
Duke of Connaught. will not promise
to obey Commander Alexander
Ramsay. R. N. when she becomes
his bride on February r. Never be-
fore has a Princess had the temerity
to break the precedent which de-
handed that oath to her husband
"The Princess will promise only
to love and honor her husband"
A prominent minister once declared
that the words were superfluous in
the ceremony, as many girls could
not comprehend the meaning of them
and therefore, in answering yes, vir-
tually committed perjury.
Some women compare present-day
marriages with those Of ancient
Rome. Then it was customary for
a man, when taking wife, first t,
detach the girl from her fathers
home and make her partner in his
family affairs. Any property the
wife had passed to the husband If
she had none her family supplied
dowry. So far as her inter ITS were
