always left a window open, even on the
coolest days.
Jose claimed an easy familiarity with
leopards that verged on contempt. His
part of the Argentine was simply over
run with the big cats. Many time in
the early morning it had been necessary
to kick one off the front steps of his
fathers hacienda.
Jose sat near the window and mademoi-
selle on the opposite side of the room,
near the door, yet he knew that he was
closer to her heart than he had ever been
before. She was greatly impressed and
grateful to have him there that dangerous
evening. 1t was doubtful if she would
have courage to let such protector leave
at all that night Just as the third bottle
of the lady's champagne was opened she
was called to the telephone and talked
some time. He was afraid it might be
news that Zizi had at last been caught,
but evidently not, for she wanted to hear
some more of his leopard adventures.
There was still nearly an hour to go be-
fore Simmonet would deliver the goods,
so he poured out another glass and fired
up his imagination.
"The first time | ever faced a leopard
alone was when ! was six years DID, he
said. 'Father had warned me never to
quail before the great beasts, and yet"
That anecdote was never finished, for
two reasons scream from Mile. Darnys
and a soft but heavy thud on the window
sill at his elbow. Jose turned and violated
his fathers first rule about leopards by
ouailing at what was looking at him. 1t
was an hour ahead of time and enough
to scare anybody. A great, flat, furry
head with bristling whiskers and nice
white fangs was shifting at his arm as if
looking for a tender place to begin, and
two glowing eyes, with perpendicular Sits,
hypnotized him.
Fortunately, terror froze him to his
chair for a moment and prevented his
running for his life. Then he remembered
that this must be Simmonet's made-up
poodle an hour ahead of time. Simmonet
was careless man, and had almost ruined
everything, but that makeup was the

neck. One of them pointed to the
door, and she ordered him to 60
and never come back. She was saying
unkind things about him. He could hard
ly believe his ears; but at last he under
stood. One of his three friends had iu t
telephoned her that Jose had rented Sim
monet's dressed-up poodle, as if such
thing could fool her, and she had let him
go through with his folly.
Four people can still tell her the truth
the Frenchmen who invented the conspil-
acy and had it stolen from them-bu.
they won't-and Simmonet, who is willing
enough, but she would not believe him,
anyway.
When the police finally shot Zizi in a
college professors back yard, Jose begged
Mile. Darnys to look at the body and COM
pare it with Simmonet's moth-eaten fraud.
but she refused When you know some
thing, anyway, what is the use of bother
ing with evidence?
So out of the score of 'phony" leopards
that were foisted on various LADIES of
Paris that night one turned into the real
thing.
The moral of this tragedy would be that
honesty is the best policy except that this
is married by the fact that a majority of
the other frauds were successful.
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1925-10-04

they formed sort of down and out
club" of men who had tried for the heart
Of Mile. Darnys in vain.
Necessity being, as usual, the mother of
invention, it occurred to these Frenchmen
that if one of them could rescue the much
desired Mile. Darnys from this fearsome
leopard it, logically, ought to be worth
even more to her than $4,000 pearl
rope. OF course, the real thing could not
be staged, because the leopard was an
uncomfortable element, and they had no
eagerness to meet him, anyway. So for
a long time, they discussed possible sub
stitutes.
There was only one really good one,
poodle owned by certain Jules Sim
monet, which wore a most skillfully con-
structed leopard-skin suit. One of the
Frenchmen happened to know that Sim
monet had been away sick and had just
returned and was in need of money. The
conspirators agreed to pool their slender
resources and draw lots to see who would
be the lucky candidate. When that mo-
ment arrived it was found that Jose, who
had shown no interest in the conversation,
was gone.
The Argentinian had been interested
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1925-10-04

into the night. The champagne he had
drunk or the speed with which things hap
pened prevented the Argentinian from
wondering how poodle, inside of mask,
could wink a glass eye. All he thought
of was that the spectacle was going to be
over too soon. He must quickly make
some final decisive gesture to show his
triumph over brute force.
He saw the creatures headquarters get
ting ready for a spring, and though he
had promised not to kick it, there was no
time for anything else, and the temptation
was too great to resist. Putting all his
weight and muscle into it, he delivered
a kick that raised the animals stern
couple of inches. 1t should have kicked
him off from his perch.
Instead of falling off the sill, the beast
looked over its shoulder with baleful eyes
at Jose, who suddenly changed his mind
about kicking it again. The head split
horizontally into pink cavern, with two
double rows of big white teeth, and in
stead of bark, the air was full of a
sound like the ripping of canvas. 1t was
the spit of tomcat multiplied by about
fifty Then the thing leaped straight out
fifteen feet into the garden, and in
series of monstrous bounds, such as no
dog over made, cleared the garden wall
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1925-10-04

most perfect and convinc-
ing thing he had ever seen.
That slightly moth-eaten
spot above the right eye
was not visible at all. 1t
looked like a brand-new
skin. Yes, he would for
give Simmonet for being
too previous and give him
1000 francs when his next
allowance came.
Try as he would, Jose
could not get up courage
to slap that terrifying face,
so he dashed his glass of
wine right into its eyes and
said:
"Scatw
The beast winked, cough
ed, blinked its eye, and,
with a quick motion, turned
tail, evidently to jump back

him. A kick would be certain to make the
dog bark, and even the most terrified
woman would realize afterward that some
thing was wrong with a cat that parked.
Senior Vallobar did not wait to see the
dog dressed up in his costume. He was
anxious to get away before his French
friends caught him stealing their idea.
These were heartbroken to learn that an
other gentleman had just rented the out
fit. Simmonet would not reveal the mans
name, but they were suspicious enough
to think it might be worth while to watch
Mile. Darnys's beautiful house and gar
den near the Bots the following night.
1t is not known by what STACEY Senior
Jose managed to be received and to spend
the evening alone with the mademoiselle,
but he did it. His plan had been to lead
the conversation around to the subject of
leopards at / o'clock, and build up to
terrific climax at IL 80, Just as Simmonet
was due to shove his camouflaged poodle
in the window.
But Mile. Darnys started the leopard
talk herself at p NJ, the moment he
arrived, and kept it up until the end.
Once in while from the dark Bots came
blood-curdling sounds, roars, screams and
pistol shots, followed by ominous silence.
Jose's great difficulty was to prevent
Mile. Darnys, in spite of the hot night, from
keeping all her windows closed. 1t was
necessary to explain to the lady that a
leopard, if he wished to enter, would leap
right through the glass, which might cut
him, make him angry, and hard to handle.
For that reason, in the Argentine, they

do the brave always
get what is coming to them?
Not necessarily.
When Senior Jose Vallobar,
from Argentina, recently saved
the lovely Mile. Darnys, by
throwing glass Of wine in
leopards face and kicking the
man eater out of his adored ones
window, he thought he rated as
a Glass A brave man, entitled to
credits and rewards. Instead,
he was put out almost as I'M
tremendously as the big cat,
and now has no standing.
cts mean world, and there
is no justice for the poor man."
says Senior Vallobar, who vows
that the next time he sees
leopard eating a lady he will
mind his own business and let
the best cat win.
Calling himself ''poor man"
is stretching things a bit Jose
is the only son of a multi-mll- eAoTo
ionaire haciendado, and his al ops SSIsI
lowance is about 100000
year. However, he is poor just
now because he had spent his
entire years income before
meeting Mile. Darnys.
Zizi, the leopard, had arrived 4
at the Paris Zoo four days prev
iously from Abyssinia. He was
a fierce, handsome diversified
leopard, and he and the intrepid
man who had trapped and brought him
out of the jungle were photographed and
discussed by all the papers.
ZiZi was kept in the house of acclima-
ton of the Zoo because he was a bad
actor, whose roars and spittings had an
undermining moral effect on the other
animals. Though raging at confinement,
he was able to eat twenty-five pounds
of raw meat every day and howl for more.
The papers had just finished describing
the brute when they announced that he
had ripped the bottom out of his cage and
escaped into the trees and shrubbery of
the Bots de Boulogne. Panic at once
struck all the fashionable residents of the
neighborhood of that beautiful park.
This was a really serious matter, and the
police sent rifle squads of sharp-shooters
hunting the Bots through and through.
As if this were not bad enough, revel-
lers returning from the Pre-Catalan Res
taurant and other places in the Bots sec
ton thought it funny, at various hours of
the night, to make roaring sounds, fol-
lowed by shrieks and pistol shots. Other
humorists painted up ordinary house cats
and dogs according to their notions of a
leopard's appearance, and turned them
loose.
Senior Jose Vallobar was one of dis
consulate party Of four men drinking
sadly at little Montmartre restaurant.
The other three were Frenchmen, and
