Ortega shrugged, “I would sug- gest you take enough,” he said. “It “you carry drafts I can arrange to- morrow to have them cashed for you.” His glance-appraised the dia- monds on Janice’s fingers and at her throat. “It is not wise to wear jewels & these times. You had better hide em.” “Will this trip be safe?” asked the girl. , “Oh, quite,” replied Ortega casu- ally. He smiled slightly. . “Well,” sald Mr. pres aes thee Bs They filed out of the car. Several soldiers helped them with their boxes, Ortega jo. arrangements to have them taken to an hotel. Mr. Greene admitted to Janice, rather erudgingly, that Ortega certainly could get things done. Janice aid not reply. She was too tired from the long day and the ex- citement to take much interest in what was going on about her. She ®oted, however, that Ortega kept elose to her, rather too close she thought, but perhaps It was only his zeal to see that she was made com- fortable. HE stood waiting for her coach. It “ was poorly illuminated before the station. People moved restlessly - about ‘her—native women with shawls about their heads, children who whimpered, soldiers with stolid, sullen faces, whose metallic equip ment elinked and rattled as they moved, it was then that she observed the Mian who leaned against a post in * the station entrance. Almost a pure type she thought, taking in ‘akin, the beaked nose, and A shock of coarse fell over his forehead. He “Beqmed to be staring toward her, © yet not at her. » She turned toward Ortega, who was at her elbow. He was looking , @irectly at the Indian. Ortega nodded bis head. His lips were parted in a half smile, which vanished as he became conscious of Janice’s inter- est. “A poor fellow,” he said suavely. “A sort of servant of mine, from ay ” Janice wondered. Then, as the coach drew up beside her, she dis- missed the matter trom her mind. She assured herself that the slight feeling of uneasiness that persisted was due to her fatigue, or her un- familiarity with these strange sur roun' dings. Still, te Indian who had stared | ., et Ortega at the station had not Jooked like a servant. There had} been something imperious in his look of one ased to command—pow- erful, insistent,—cruel. His charac- ter seemed to be expressed by his nose—beaked like a hawk’s or a vulture’s. RAHAME made a last sJash with his machete and dropped {it at his feet. He drew tobacco and papers from his ‘breast pocket, and while rolling his -cigaret watched the toiling figure beside him. Sweat glistened on Juan’s bronze face, the. muscles rippled under his shirt as, he swung his heavy knife. “Let's cut’ back ‘to the trail, mu- chacho,” said Grahame. The lad paused doubtfully! “But we may meet the men who come for the arms,” he replied. “Almost,” said Grahame, “it would be better than this.” “As you say. I am willing.” He grimaced at his blistered hands and smiled. “It is better to die swiftly with a bullet than to expire slowly from too much work.” Grahame chuckled. “Spoken lke @ true son of Mexico.” “Nevertheless,” he continued, “we should be able to tell from the trail whether they have passed toward the hacienda or not. Also, they may have returned with the cases. In that event, we can keep behind gazo,—something that ts seen in the PYTTITTITI IIT il THE ARTMAN PRESS them.” among the tangle of jungle creepers .

The trail lies three kilometers to the south behind that small hill.” ‘They Were'abdut forty kilometers in from the coast. Roughly the di- rection of the trail was south-west. They had been nearly two weeks journeying to reach this point, keep- ing always off the main trail. At times their way was easy, when the jungle opened into broad grassy savannahs. At other points they were forced to plunge into leech-glutted bogs where every step was a supreme effort. They skirted the small hill that Juan had noticed. Soon they stood upon a narrow path that twisted southward, a truly Indian trail that looped and swung around trees and swamps,—never ran straight. Juan preceded Grahame as they strode along. Their packs ‘were humped high opon their shoulders. Each carried a rifle, taken from Or- tega's landed cases, Occasionally Juan pointed to the right or left of the trail, calling Grabame’a atten- tion to freshly severed vines. “They have passed this way to- ward the coast.

The footprints go all in one direction. A very large party too,—perhaps half a hundred, per haps more,” They stood at the edge-of the swamp that stretched about two hundred yards ahead of them. Thoughtfully they examined the footprints. “It's the side trail again for us, son,” said Grahame. “At least until the footing is dry. It would be telling "em too much if we crossed here. We don’t know how far they are be- hind us.
