Death Sings a Song

Dale asked then, coming to the
point.
II guess that's what he
meant" admitted Aragon.
THAT clears it up," said
Dale with a faint smile. "And
that's another reason you want
to find out who's reSponsible?"
Aragon nodded and became
thoughtful for awhile.
II been thinkin' about Ra-
mon," he finally said. 'You
don't suppose he could've been

because Carmen give him the

That's one possibility

selves. Amazin' what you can
pull out Of the sea once you

Robin Dale registered at the
hotel in Aqua Caliente. Aragon
was living there and arranged
for a room adjoining his own.
The grounds and the hotel
were beautiful but Dale found
the same fostering conditions
which existed at Tia Juana-
drinking and gambling and
their kindred enjoymentS. Dale,
being no moraliSt, was amused
rather than offended by the
display.
It was not until the follow
ing evening when things were
somewhat more settled than
during the hectic afternoons,
that Dale made his next move.
It started with q game Of
blackjack and ran q course
into unexpected avenues. He
sat down on a stool opposite
Rupert. At the time there were
two others in the game, but
first one and then the other
dropped out.
The two men continued to
play. The only words which
The Washington times., 1930-10-29

passed between them were
Dale's requests for cards. The
reporter lost with disgusting
regularity. Already the third
stack Of silver dollars was near
ing its end.
Quite Unexpectedly Mona
came to the table. From the
corner Of his eye Dale saw q
furtive glance pass between
them. It apprised Rupert al
most as definitely as though
she had spoken the words that
here was the man Of whom she
had told Rupert. Peculiarly
enough, from that moment
Dale began to win. Rupert lost
something in his play.
The girl stood by and
watched, silently. The reporter
also maintained his silence.
Rupert'S play was the tip-off.
The dealer finally spoke, in q
low tone, as he dealt q card. al
most as though he were carry
ing on an ordinary converse
ton.
you're looking for informa-
toni" It was not spoken as a
question.
"Only what you'd like to tell
me. I'll take one card
enough"
Rupert overdrew and paid
off. "I haven't anything to tell
you! And don't believe every
thing Aragon tells you either!"
Again they played for q
stretch in silence. Then, again.
an interruption.
A man approached the table.
Dale saw Mona step tnvolun-
tarily toward the rear Of the
table. The man was tall and
heavily built. His features
were Square-cut and denoted
strength. Except for the small,
closely set eyes he would have
been considered good-looking,

but the eyes spoiled the entire
effect.
Hello, Mona-1o, Rupert.
Mona, come in and have a
drink with me-"
It'd rather stay here-and
watch"
"You tell her to come, Ru-
pert. She'll do what you say"
Dale could not fail to recognize
the yelled tnsinuation in the
tone. Rupert's whole body
tensed perceptibly. But, In
stead of the flat refusal the
reporter expected, came the
flat-toned voice of Rupert, ad-
dressed to the girl.
"It's all right, Mona-go
ahead"
She seemed to wilt, but said
nothing further and walked off
with the man. He took her
arm with q poSSeSSive air. Dale
heard him laugh as he went. A
look Of bitter hatred rose In
Rupert'S eyes as he watched
them, forgetting for o moment
to deal.
"Who is he?" Dale asked cas-
ually.
"Larramie's his name. He's
q dirty"
You're from the States,
aren't your"
Rupert seemed to freeze UP
at this unexpected question.
whats it to you?"
"Knew Laramie there, didn't
you? I just had q hunch. No
offense."
Rupert made no reply. He
continued to deal, but nothing
Dale said could elicit anything
further from him. Continually
he kept watching Laramie and
the girl.

During the evening" whicn
was quieter than the afternoon
had been because of the six
p. M. exodus across the border,
nothing of value developed. The
Paris Casino closed at one. Dale
stuck It out with Aragon until
that hour.
Before he left Dale found
an opportunity to speak with
Ramon, the dancing partner Of
Carmen. AS he finished his
last turn on the floor, Argon
sent Gringo Pete to ask Ramon
to join the pair at their table.
Ramon was typically Latin,
with olive skin and black hair,
sleeked back and heavily oiled.
He was extremely faStidious
about his dress and offered
an incongruous figure in the
midst of the common, blatant
atmosphere Of a Tia Juana bar.

And 50 Ramon was dis

table for q while, without speak

Distracted Husband" wrote
TO this column about two weeks

sorry he was for himself be-
cause he had a devoted wife
who gave him no grounds for
divorce, which prevents him
from marrying a young lady in
the same office who embroider-
ed him handkerchiefs and made
him candy. Among his sorrows
was the question Of his egg for
breakfast. He liked it boiled
three minutes, but when his
wife did it just that way, he
didn't enjoy it because he didn't
like his wife.

A modern girl can have

to make clear his Intentions"
before they were quite clear to
himself.
In those days there were
only two kinds of men, marry

an offer Of marriage-and a
kiss from the latter meant a
scandal.
