Absolutely. 1 shall make better
TERMS"
Stairway went to the door.
There is going to be no more MAX
ing of terms" he said briefly. 81 shall
talk to you henceforward as I'd talk
to rat in a trap!"
Tore sprang up swiftly, his face
flushing darkly with rush Of angry
blood.
"You shall see," he cried harshly,
"that even a rat in trap may have
sharp teeth. You fool, it is who will
offer terms-or dictate-at my pleas
ure!''
He turned away with short, ugly
laugh. Stairway for the first time felt
a little shock of positive dread; fear
that he was risking too much; that he
had no right to assume this RESPONSE
bility. For there was something in
Torres voice which told him that the
man was making 10 idle threat.

times are fortunately turbulent along
the border, and what has happened
may so easily be laid at the door
of the poor devils of insurrectos. You
can create suspicion, you can make
trouble. But then there is the will,
properly drawn and witnessed, and
there is something else!"
"And that?" curiously, wondering
how far Tore would go in showing
his hand.
"There will be other witnesses of
whom you do not guess yet-witnesses
carefully selected, who will not be
shaken in point they make. And
they will swear that Senior de la
Guerra became very angry with his
granddaughter upon the very day of
his disappearance; that he quarreled
openly with her; that he vowed he
would disinherit her, and that he sent
Immediately for his lawyer to make
the new win. Do you care, senior, to
know what these witnesses will prove
to be the cause of the quarrel?"
"WelI" asked Stairway.
''It will be that Teresa, needless of
her grandfather'S hatred of all Ameri-
canos, had fallen in love with one of
them; that she defed De la Guerra,
and swore that she would marry

''Who then will appear In the light

busy over a new cigarette, ''if the

Stanway's mouth hardened.
He saw that if Tore had made one
mistake-if Dempton were in reality
what he appeared, a weak toOl-yet
the young Spaniard had planned pains
takingly elsewhere.
"You may mark a certain seeming
discrepancy" went on the Spaniard.

why Was Gleason overIooked2

Last year William (Kid) Gleason
was without a job. He had been re-
leased by Owner Comiskey of the
White Sox. Any ball club could have
signed him.
Gleason last winter was restored to
good standing in Chicago and made
manager of the White Sox.
The cry went up last season that
real major league managers could not
be found.

CHAPTER VIII.
At Three O'Clock.


The questions perplexing Stairway
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.
"Surely the insurgents are not looking
for complications with this country.
But we are taking no chances. 1t would
take whole regiment of them to trou-
bic us here tonight
''But are we doing right?" she whis-
pered little fearfully. eff we gave
them the money-it is so small part
of papa grande's estate-he would be
out of all danger. And as it is"
at 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 fif-
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
s'Buenas noches," he was not content
until he himself had seen to the watch
fitness 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 senorfta'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 I'm"
eventful for him, so that his trembling
little soul might have time for thought.
It was late when Teresa needed his
urging and went to her room. 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
nerson 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.
Juarez seemed to be asleep upon his
couch. Half a dozen of Gaucho's va
uueros, all armed, were scattered
about the room, their quick eyes show
ing how alert was the spirit within
them. Tore, sitting at table idly
turning the leaves of an Illustrated
book of poems, rose quickly when
Stairway came into the room and
stepped to his side.

nounce all claim, free the old gentle
man, go away and leave you, senior,
to pay your court TO the heiress r.
He laughed softly at Stairway
quick, angry frown, and continued
swiftly:
'Tt is because I have very urgent
need of ten thousand dollars. 1t would
save me from an embarrassing posi-
ton, senior. You do not guess how
embarrassing. And / am very modest
ly asking merely twice my actual
needs.
"True, there is more TO gain by slit

"But, on the other hand, the danger

two. So, senior, you have my oner'

you to go that far. You will save nm
