Two men were indolently coiling ropes, and # figure sat on the deck house surrounded with oily rags and cleaning a revolver. “Senor Ortega?” asked Grahame.

Agree- ably he found @ man to take Grahame’s baggage down to the | wharf and make arrangements for the voyage. Ortega did not look like a planta- tion owner. Haciendados kept up the traditions of the indolent gentle- men land-owners,—men whose air was that of being aloof from the peonage—and whose hands were soft. Sinee their discussion of his name Ortega had showed almost an im- pertinent curiosity regarding his passenger. Moreover he had disre- garded Frank’s avoidance of his in- quiries. Aside from the obvious bad taste of what Grahame considered Ortega’s .impertinences the man seemeéd to be insensible to the fact that on the outposts of any country @ man’s motives were his own. There is an unwritten law that a man’s identity shall not be inquired into, nor confidences sought. Inquisi- tiveness sometimes had a penalty that carried @ sting with it. But still he persisted. “But you cannot want to be left on a little island off the coast. That island scarcely supports a few fish- ing families.” Grahame remained silent. “The jungle, behind the coast at that spot is uninhabited, and dan- gerous.” Grahame tossed his eigaret over- side. “Yet, Don Raoul, you have a plantation thereabouts,” answered Grahame. “Yes,” said Ortega. He watched the Ameriean closely. “I am fami idY fliere. “It ts not dangerous for me.” The other shrugged his shoulders. “Then why should it be dangerous for me? I can take care of myself.” “Bh...” The Mexican looked ex- pressionlessly at Grahame. “It is possible, then, that you seek a dan- gerous place, for reasons of your own, where someone could not fol- low?” “Perhaps,” replied Grahame. in- differently. * i ease ate just before dusk, the inevitable beans and rice, with slabs of a delicious mackerallike fish one of the crew had hauled aboard from a troll-iine. Grahame spread his blanket in the bow of the launch and rolled himself with- in it. Ortega seated himself tn the cockpit with the two that composed the crew and the American could hear their voices above the chug of the engine, talking between them- selves. Drowsily he wondéere@ why they had set out no running lights but decided that the traffic im that part of the coast warrented: no sucl: pro- tection. He wonhderéd about that point again the next day. They had been sailing within a quarter of a mile of the coast when Ortega pointed astern. The crew foliowed his ges- ture with their gaze, and Grahame noticed a smudge of snioke over the distant horizon. Immediately the helm was put over and the launch headed for the beach an@ a point where the surf diminished. There were no orders given, but one of the men went be low and the exhaust of the engine immediately picked up. As they approached the shore Grahame noted that the beach swept back into the opening of a lagoon. Within a few minutes the launch passed through <he narrow straits ané onto the placid waters of a la goon that stretched back paralleling the beach. Mangrcves hid the launch from the sea. They stopped the en- gine and threw over the anchor. Grahame was curious.

He asked Ortega about ‘this. “A gunboat surely,” he replied. “Mexican.” “And we avoid it?’ Ortega shrogged. One could not tell, he explained, what the military might do. They had so little to do that they might stop them and search the launch. It was often done. It was a bother and a great annoy- ance, 80 it was better to avoid the meeting. “But even if they searched you, what could they find?” Juan, the younger member of the crew laughed, and Ortega’s face | wrinkled with a sort of subdued mirth. “They would find occupation, per. haps.” (Copyright, 1934, dy Herbert Jensen) FR hg vee learne an important Jerome D.

BASEBALL WRANGLE NOW, CLEARED UP) Editor, The Citizen: In your issue of January 26, I tead an open letter from R. Rod- riguez, manager of the Pelicans’ Baseball Club, and, I take this means in answering as president of the Island City Baseball League. First of all I want to eorrect the statement of Manager Rodriguez, that his club was dropped from the league, because his club was not dropped... We called a meet- ing for 7:30 p. m. on Wednesday, and every manager wae notified on Sunday during the game. I per- sonally on Wednesday evening saw Mr. Rodriguez and told! him that a meeting was taking place that night, and he told me. that some of his boys did not care to play any more, and that here. after they were going to play practice games. I also went to Evaristo Ri riguez, who represents the Peli ‘first helf, and Sevilla and-A. Cas- tro for the serapping little Stars. This game will start promptly at 1:30 p, m. In the second game the Peli- cans will cross bats with the Pi- rates. The Pelicans will use two brothers as their battery, Rod- riguez and Rodriguez, and the Pi- rates will use the great Lopez and C. Griffin. Two good games are anticipated. In the first half these same two elubs broke ‘the ice and the Peli-| Nebo of New York and Lou Ray- cans beat the Pirates, 4 to 3, and|™ond [of Baltimore fought to a the Sluggers defeated the Stars, 10-rouhd draw in the feature of ing place that evening. The meeting wag called at 7 as scheduled afid ‘we waited .w 7:45 for the representative of Pelicans, but he’ did not show up. We took it for granted that they did not care te continue, so we! adopted a new schedule composed | of the other three clubs, and made! |an agreement that if the Pelicans} changed their minds they were; welcomed to play again. We felt! it was not right to break up the! jleague altogether just because} they did not care to continue. | On Thursday I personally went! to see Mr. Rodriguez and asked! m if they had changed their! minds about retiring from the! j league, and Mr. Rodriguez replied | that he was trying to get the boys } together and see what they would decide on. The understanding} was he was to notify me that eve- ining of the action in the matter, | | but to my surprise I read his let.! ter in The Citizen telling of how he felt about the affair. I hope that this will clear up everything, and that al! parties! are satisfied, as Manager Rod- riguez has agreed to play Sunday, i {the same managers at the helm lof the other clubs. | _ I leave it up to the public and; right and who was wrong. } F.
