Bom year ago fcdward White, a young American geutleiuan, lutrnding to go In a carriage from Nsploe to Borreoto, waa warned against a gang of bandits wbo had abowu tbetuarlves oa that route. Instead of heeding, tbe warning be told hla tanker that If be should send bliu an order for rananui t scrutinise tbe' message for bidden lustroctlooa and especially to heat tbe paper on which It waa written.

Several day a after bla rapture hla linker oo morning found oa til desk a letter from tb captive orderiug him fo aeaj ftO.Ouo franca to a certain polut. ibe location being carefully del scribed la the letter. Th tinker beat ed tbe paper, and a message appeared of an et.tlrely different purport. It dl reded that a fore of soldiers go to a certain smi on the coast on a certain data and with a telescope look up Into th mountains. At a point belt tbe rocks of peculiar shape the bandits wer encamped. Tb troops, knowing exactly where their enemies were, could advance at night and surround them. The banker djalik4 to propo the plan to the government official, fear ing that If It failed Whit would h murdered. Nevertheless ho obeyed tbe order. Tbe troopa wer sent by water to a point off a place railed Castle- amor. Tbey wer kept concealed be low, and a police officer In plain clotbea, armed with a telescope, went ashore. ,Thta precaution waa taken that any confederate the bandit I might have In that vicinity should not be able to notify- them of the pr ence of the front. The poiir officer, choosing a spot where be would not be observed, brought bla glass to bear ou tb moun tain and located the position of Ibe bandit ramp. Being familiar wltb the locality he waa rboseu for the work on thia account be knew very well th roe da by which the soldiers might surround tba camp. Returning to tbe boat be Informed tbe captain of bla obeervatlona, drew a rough map of the road running near tbe point of attack and agreed to personally conduct on part of tbe force up a steep path that would lead directly to tb amail pla teau on which tba bandits wer wait lng.

Meanwhile th bandit, obllvloua tel lb fact that tbelr captive bad given I each Information aa might lead to their ruin and having seen and read hla lat ter ordering hla banker to aend the ransom, treated him kindly. Tbey ven permitted him to walk about on th ledge on which lb camp rested, though a man stood ready to a hoot him at any unueual motion. lie looked for th troopa below, but eeeing nothing of them, waa not a war of tbelr ar rival. But he saw tbe boat tbat con tained them, and It occurred to htm mat tnia would be a better way to aend them than the on be bad Indi cated. II gauged tha time of their arrival.
