It seemed to Montana that the gen- eral would surely fly into a passion, but he only laughed. “When I'm on horseback, I look better,” he sald, “But I'm not beauti- ful. However, there are beautiful things about me.” “There are the soldiers who are agrlx;id not to follow you,” said the girl. “They have followed me into places, too.

The Kid gripped his arm to call him back to himself. His own teeth were set. He told himself that he was seeing not Rosita only, but the hearts of all pretty women. The general had taken the news like a bullet through the body. “El Keed?” he repeated, stupidly. “But he is far away in the North. Mexico is closed against him like the teeth of a wolf frozen dead.

There was no Previous Disappearance Cited. ‘The archbishop’s friends were virtu- ally certain he had been taken into custody by government agents. They pointed out that at the time of his exile in 1927 nothing was heard of him from the time he was arrested until he crossed the border into Guatemala. Carreno said he learned of the de- tention of Archbishop Diaz from a milk truck driver who saw six men force the archbishop’s car to halt at a town known as El Arbolito near Cuautitlan. Police on duty on the road said they had not seen the archbishop. Two Priests With Him. With Diaz, Carreno said, were two priests, Francisco Martinez and Raul Bellesteros, as well as the chauffeur, Juan. ‘The churchmen had gone to the | twon of La Visitacion, where they were invited to attend religious festivities, | and apparently were on their way back home when intercepted. Archbishop Diaz, a full-blooded Indian of Jalisco, became head of the Catholic Church in Mexico after the expulsion of the papal delegate, Mssr. Leopoldo Ruiz y Flores, to the United States three years ago. He was re- cently fined 500 pesos (about $135) for performing religious services out- side the federal district.
