It was a typlcal Mexican scene— | the interior of the chief gambling den | ‘at Truro and a critical stage of the | g8me in progress. | Marvin Howe happened to be pres- ent amid that ewarthy crew—a float- ing quantity in the general situation involving warfare, anxious to get North and out of it and the opportunity | offered just that'day with a decidedly favorable change in fortune if he car- ried out secret instructions given to him, The position was this: The com- mandant of the sectional lusurgemsj wished to send a particular message to & co-patriot one hundred miles away. | It involved a junction of the two | forces. The Intermediate forty leagues of territory, however, were occupied | by a dangerous enemy. The chief at ! Truro was surrounded by enemies and eples. He had hired Howe to do some translation and reposed confldence in him. Howe engaged to cross the danger line and deliver his message. Both knew that while as an American citi- gen Howe might get through to Texas, he would be challenged, suspected, | searched on the way. 8o a gingular maneuver was decided upon, Within the private room of the chief earlier that evening, his secre- ! tary had {mprinted across Howe's broad shoulders the message he wished | | :’g’, conveyed to his fraternal auxiliary, %:: Those Mexicans were adepts in using & an indelible stain that would wear and & remain clear, at least for a period. Z; Howe was to try to find some free # | lance who would accompahy him and | bring back & reply, while he, well re- ‘ EEX oo 3 *:s;(iu:‘(?) Eaka | message on my back!"” “Amigo,” he said, folding his hand in a fervent grasp, “when my fortune turns I shall know how to repay you.” | & “I can help it turn just now,” re-|¢ marked Howe significantly. Howe |% knew he was a man to be trusted. He |3 told him that he was authorized to pay , royally for his guidance and direction. “I can pilot you safely,” he said—"I am your man.” It was a dévious route, that by which ) Matteo led Howe from Truro. His & sole object seemed to be to evade a collision with marauding parties and & he succeeded famously in this. The |2 third day out of Truro, however, an In- | & cident occurred that confirmed a sus-, "} picion Howe had entertained ever “;v since starting on his present mission. E: The morning they left Truro Howe 3 had noticed a man he had seen hang- | g ing around the chief's quarters dog- & ging his footsteps. He had called the E attention of Matteo to this, who had | % carelessly asserted that if he was one 9 of the numerous spies in action they ;R “would soon lose him.’ 1S However, twice in two days after | % they had started on the trail they | caught sight of a distant figure remind- ful of the man they had observed at Truro. It was early in the morning that Matteo suggested a plunge into a near creek before they lit a little fire and cooked their frugal breakfast. They had disrobed and were disporting themselves in the cool sparkling stream when an ominous sound echoed out— Click! § Then to the consternation of Howe, | turning he saw & man, the man who had shadowed him in the city just g rushing away with a camera. “Matteo!” shouted Howe quickly— “the spy. He has photographed the SHEOTOTGBO PoERoTIoER » “S0?" observed Matteo, speedily ?‘: springing ashore. *“Ah! He had that § purpose in following us, eh? Then he jfi shall not get away so easily.” o Mutteo had run to where his clothes | & Jay. It was to selze his revolver, with I which he was a crack shot, from {ts E\) holster. | € Howe, transtixed, watched the man with the camera running down the . river shore. The fugitive had a fair f\; lead. Matteo aimed. L Crack!-followed a sure steady aim. ‘t: Howe saw the runner waver and & change the camera to his other hand, t’, evidently hit, 7 Crack!—a second sharp explosion lf;: foliowed. Howe gaw the camera shoot | & out pieces of glass and wood where ::: the bullct had pierced it. Dropping |4 the wrecked camera and holding his wounded hand, the spy disappeared. “The message is written partly in }_, cipher,” explained Howe, “but that man might lave been able to make it U out after close study."” i “He is doubtless one of the un- serupulous crowd Infesting the Ixru\'fl‘( ince, ready to blackmail, scll secrets ‘<;> @ & | ¢ or betray his best friend,” l\«('n-vl«-(i“f‘{ | Matteo. “Well, be has failed in his |~ jon and we will scarcely go ll){ mis PAGE SEVEN O SHORE SPECIAL SUNDAY EXCURSIONS TO Saint Petersburg Passa Grille ‘ Fort Dade g Anna Maria : O3 OE 0 O OB O EEOE SHOBOBOG 4%; ROUND TRIP 75c¢ g S e 9 . 4 Leave Tampa 9:30 A.
