CHAPTER XXIIIr-fContlnued.)
TIi cnpatni made a wry faee,
"There will be probably plenty of blows
to receive, and very little proQt to derive
from such an expedition."
"I believed that you were devoted to
me," the general remarked bitterly.
'Tour excellency Is not mistaken; I
am truly devoted to you, but I hare
aim a fondness for ruy skin."
"I will itlve you twenty-five ounce for
very silt It rrcelvea; U that enough 1
"Come, I nee that your excellency
wishes me to b cut Into mince meat!"
the capatai exclaimed joyously.
"Then that I agreed r
"I ahould think so, excellency, at that
price a man would be a fool to refuse."
"Hut about homr
"We have at teait ten or a doxen In
the corral.
"That Is true; I did net think of
that the general exclaimed, striking hi
forehead, "hare seven lassoed at once."
"Where mint I take the senorltai"
"Urine her to thli bouse, for (he shall
not set foot In the convent again."
"Very good, when shall I start, gen
eral r
"At once. If It be possible."
"In twenty minutes I shall bar left
the house."
In the meanwhile the carriage dashed
lone: It passed at full gallop through
the San Laiaro gate, then turned sud
denly to the right and entered a some-
what narrow street. At about the mid
dle of this street It stopped before a
bouse of rather modest appearance, the
gate of which at once opened, and a man
came out holding the bridles of two prai
rie mustangs completely harnessed, and
with a rifle at each saddle-bow. The
Frenchman got ont and invited his com
panion to follow bis example.
"Resume your usual dress," be said,
as be led him Inside the bouse.
The Tigrero obeyed with an eager start
of Joy. While be doffed his gown his
companion mounted, after saying to the
young ladies:
Whatever happens, not a word not
a cry; keep the shutters tip; we will
gallop at the door and remember your
lives are in peril."
Don' Martial at this moment came out
of the bonne attired as a caballero.
'To horse and let us be off," said M.
Rallier.
The Tigrero bounded on to the mus
tang held In readiness for him, and the
carriage. In which the mules had been
changed, started again at full speed. The
house at which they had stopped was
the one hired by Valentine to keep bis
stud at.
Half an hour thus passed snd the car
riage disappeared In the thick cloud of
dust it raised as It dashed along. Don
Martial felt new bora: the excitement
bad restored bis old ardor as If by en
chantment, be longed to be face to face
with bis fo, and at length come to a
Vtttlement with him.
All at once the Indian uttered a cry.
The two men looked back with alarm and
mw a body of men coming up at full
peed. At this moment the carriage was
following a road bounded on one side
by a rather thick cbapparal, which ex
tended for some distance; on the other
by a deep ravine.
At a sign from the Frenchman the
carriage was drawn across the road and
the ladles got out and went, nnder
Curumllla's protection, to seek shelter
behind the trees. The two men, after
seeing that their friends were concealed,
with their rifles to their shoulders and
Angers on the triggers, stood firmly In
the middle of the road, awaiting the on
jet of their adversaries, for, In all prob
ability, tha newcomers were enemies.
CHAPTER XXIV.
tmrumllla, after concealing, with that
Indian skill be so thoroughly possessed,
the young ladle at a spot where they
were thoroughly protected from bullets,
had placed himself, rifle In band, not by
the side of the two riders, but, with
characteristic redskin prudence, he am
buscaded himself behind the carriage,
probably reflecting that be represented
the entire Infantry force, and not caring,
through a point of honor, very absurd In
tits opinion, to expose himself 'to a death
not only certain but useless to those be
wished to defend.
The liorsemen, however, on coming
within range of the persons they were
pursuing, stopped, and by their gestures
seemed to evince a hesitation the fugi
tives did not at all understand, after the
fashion In which they bad hitherto been
pursued. The. motive for this hesitation,
which the Frenchman and bis companions
could not know, and which perplexed
them bo greatly, was very simple.
Oarnero, for it was the general's caps
tan who was pursuing the carriage, with
hi peons, all at once perceived, with, a
secret pleasure, it is true, though be was
careful not to let bis companions notice
It, that while they Were pursuing the
rrlag other horsemen were pursuing
thea; and coming up at headlong speed.
Ob seeing this, as we said, tbe party
halted, such disappointed and greatly
eabarrassed as to what they had better
do.
The? were literally placed between two
fires and were the attacked Instead of
tbe 'ssaaUante: the situation was crit
ical, and deserved serious consideration.
Ctnwn rnggtstod a retreat, remarkieg
L kj, m eerialB aaouat of reason that tha
aMM-WS-e MJMUr-ial. d that w-
ccss was highly problematical. The
leen all utter ruffian, and expressly
chosen by the general, but who enter
tained a profound respect for the Integ
rity of tbelr limbs, and were but wry
slightly inclined to have them Injured In
so dlsadvantngvous a contest with people
ho would not recoil, were disposed to
follow the advice of the enpatas and re
tire before a retreat became Impossible.
Unhappily, the Zaragate was among
the peons. Relieving from his conversa
tion with tha colonel that he knew bet
ter than any one the general's Intentions,
and attracted by the hope of a rich re
ward It he succeeded In delivering him
of his enemy, that Is to say, In killing
Valentine; and moreover, probably Im
pelled by the personal hatred he enter
tained for the hunter, he would not listen
o any observation, and swore with hor
rible oaths that he would carry out the
general's orders at alt hazards, and that,
since tbe persons they were ordered to
stop were only a few pace before them,
they ought not to retire until they had,
at least, attempted to perform their duty,
and that If his comrades were such cow
ants as to desert blm, he would go on
alone at his own risk, certain that the
general would be satisfied with the way
In which he had behaved.
After a declaration so distinct and
peremptory, any hesitation became im
possible, the more so as the horsemen
were rapidly comntg up. and It the capa-
tax hesitated much longer he would be
attacked In the rear. Thus driven out of
his last intrenchment, and compelled
against his will to fight. Carncro gave
the signal to push on ahead.
Rut the peons had scarce started ere
three shots were fired, and three men
rolled In tho dust. The newcomers. In
this way, warned their friends to bold
their ground and that they were bring
ing help. Tbe dismounted peons were not
wounded, though greatly shaken by their
fall, and unable to take part In tha fight ;
their horses alone were hit. and that so
cleverly that they at once fell.
En, ehl" the enpatas said, as he gal
loped on : "the plcaro have a very sure
hand. What do you think of It"
"I say that Jhere are still four of us;
that is double tbe number of those, wait
ing for ns down there, and we are sufll
dent to master them."
"Don't be too sure, my good friend.
Zaragate," the copatax said with a grin;
"they are men made of Iron, who must
be killed twice over before they fall."
Tbe Tigrero and bis companions bad
heard shots and seen tbe peons bite the
dust.
"There is Valentine," said the French
man.
"I believe so." Don Martial replied.
"Shall we charge!"
"Ves."
And digging In their spurs, they dashed
at the peons.
Valentine and his two comrades, Rel
bumeur and Illack Elk (for the French
man was not mistaken. It was really the
hunter coming up, whom the Canadian
bad warned) fell on the peons simulta
neously with Don Martial and his com
panion. A terrible, silent and obstinate strug
gle went on for some minutes between
these nine men ; tbe foes bad seized each
other round tbe body, as they were too
close to use firearms, and tried to stab
each other. Nothing was beard but an
gry curse and panting, for what I tbe
use of Insulting when you can kill?
The Zaragate, so soon as he recognised
the hunter, dashed at him. Valentine,
although taken off hi guard, offered a
vigorous resistance; the two men were
entwined like serpents, and, in their ef
forts to dlsmpunt each other, at last both
fell, and rolled beneath tbe feet of th
combatants who, without thinking of
them, or perceiving their fall, continued
to attack each other furiously.
The Zaragate, some years younger than,
Valentine, and possessed of bis full bod
ily strength, while urged on by tbe love
of a rich reward, made superhuman ef
forts to master his opponent and plume
bis naraja into his heart.
Still Vnlentlne felt that bis strength
was becoming exhausted, tbe unexpected
resistance he met with from an enemy ap
parently so little worthy of him exasper
ated him and made him lose bis coolness.
Collecting all bis remaining vigor to at
tempt a final and decisive effort, he suc
ceeded In getting his enemy once again
under blm, and pinned him down; but,
at tbe same moment, Valentine uttered a
cry of pain and rolled on tbe ground
a horse's kick had broken hi left arm,
Tbe Zaragate sprang up with a tiger's
bound, and bursting Jnto a yell of de
light, placed his knee on bis enemy's
chest, at tbe same time as be prepared
to bury hi navaja In his heart Valen
tine felt that be war lost, and dldjiot at
tempt to avoid the death that threatened
him.
"Ah, nhl" the Zaragate said, with a
ferocious grin. "I bold my vengeance
as length, accursed Trail-hunter."
He did not complete tbe sentence;
suddenly seized by his long hair, while
a knee, thrust between his shoulders, forc
ed him to bend back, he saw, as in a
horrible dream, a ferocious face grinning
above bis head. With a fearful groan he
rolled on tbe ground; a knife bad been
burled in hie heart, while bl scalp,
which was suddenly removed, left hi
desaded skull to Inundate with blood tbe
ground around,
OuroaallU raised la his arms the body
of his friend, whose life he bad J-.tst saved
once ngnlu, mid bore It to the side of tbe
rotul. Valentine had fainted.
The chief, so soon ns lit saw his friends
charge tho peons, left his ambush, and
nlillo careful to remain behind them, fol
lowed to tha battlefield. He lind watched
eagerly th long struggle bet wen the
hunter and the Znntgtite; trying vainly
to assist bl friend, but never nbl to
succeed. The two enemies were so en
twined, their movements were so rapid,
and they changed their positions so sud
denly that the chief was afrnld lest be
might wound his friend In attempting to
help hluu Finally the Araucnno bounded
like a wild beast on the Mexican, and
without hesitation cated and stabbed
him with tho nglllty characteristic of
the redskins, and which he himself pos
sessed In so high a degree.
Almost at the Mine moment tbe horse
men also finished their (lgnt. The peon
had offered a vigorous resistance, but
being badly supported by the rapatas,
who was disabled at the beginning of the
skirmish by Don Martial, and seeing the
Zaragate dead and three of their friend
dismounted and Incapable of coming to
their assistance, they gave In.
The enpntaa had been wounded at his
own request by Don Martial, In order
to save appearances with the general;
he had a wide gash on his rljht arm,
very severe nt the first glance, but In
significant In 'reality. A peon had been
almost smashed by Relhumcur, so that
the field of battle remained In the hands
of the hunter.
When their victory wa nssured, they
assembled anxiously round Valentlue, for
they were alarmed at his condition, and
most anxious In be reassured. Valentine,
whose arm Curumllla had at once set,
with the skill and coolness of an old
practitioner, soon reopened his eyes, reas
sured his friends by a smile, and offered
the Indian chief hi right hand, which
the latter laid on his heart with an ex
pression of Indescribable happiness, a
he uttered his farorlte exclamation of
"Ugh I" the only word he permitted him
self to nse In Joy or In sorrow, when he
felt himself choking with Internal emo
tion. "Senores," the hunter said, "It Is only
an arm broken; thanks to the chief, I
bare bad an easy escape. Let us re
sume our journey before other enemies
come up."
"And we, senorT" the capatat cried
humbly.
I- Valentine rose with the chiefs assist
ance, and took a furious glance at the
peons. -As for you, miserable assassins,'
be said with a terrible acvnt, "return
to your master and tell him In what way
you were received. Rut It I not suffi
cient to have chastised your perfidy, I
must revenge for the odious snare Into
which my friends and 1 all but fell. I
will learn whether In open day, and soma
halt a doxen mile from Mexico, bandits
can thus attack peaceable travelers with
Impunity. Regime ',"
So soon as the peon. In obedience to
the hunter's orders, bad left tbe battle
field, he, on his part, gave bl companions
the signal to start. Don Martial had
hurried to reassure the ladles, who were
standing more dead than alive at the
spot where the chief had concealed them.
He made them get Into tbe carriage
again, without telling them anything ex
cept that tbe danger was past, and that
there was not the slightest doubt but
what tbe rest of tbe Journey would be
performed In safety.
Valentine's friends tried In rain to
Induco him to get Into tho carrlag with
the ladle. lie would not consent, but
Insisted on mounting his horse, assuring
them, in the far from probable event of
their being attacked again, that he could
be still of some service to hi compan
ions in spite of bis broken arm, Tha
latter were too well acquainted with his
Inflexible will to argue or prrss the point
with blm further, so Curumllla remounted
the coach box and they started.
The rest of tbe Journey was performed
without any Incident, and they reached
the qulntn twenty minutes later,
Tha skirmish had taken place scarce
two miles from tin country house. On
reiichfng the gates, Valentine took leave
of bis friend without dismounting.
"What I" the latter said to him, "are
you going, Valentine, without resting for
a moment T"
"I must, my dear Rallier," be an
swered; "you know what Imperious rea
sons claim my presence In Mexico."
"Rut you are wounded."
"Have I not Curumllla to attend to
my hurt? Do not be anxious about me:
besides, I Intend to see you again soon.
Tills nulnta appear to mo strong enough
to resist a surprise. Have you a garrl
son?"
"I have a dozen servants and my two
brothers."
"In that case I am easy In my mind;
besides, there is only one night to pas,
and I believe that utter tbe lesson his
people have received, tho geucrnl will not
venture on a second attack, for some do)
at least. Reside, he reckons on the suc
cess of his pronunclameuto. You will
come to me to-morrow at daybreak, will
you not?"
"I shall not fall."
"In that case I will be off."
"Will you not say good-by to the In
dies?" "They are not aware of my presence
and It will be better for them not to
see mo ; o good-by till to-morrow,"
(To be continued.)

Tho treatment of simple conjunctivi

Whllo examining tho contents of the

Lieut J. U Ilolcimilie, of tlio ISrttti
coast nrtlllory, discovered several
boxes of old linml grenade which nro
supposed to I! more than KK) years
old, say tho Raltlmore Amerlrnii.
The missile nro of the earliest mako
used by the United Htate government,
and wcro probably plaeetl at the his
toric old fort when It was llrst creeled
In 1812. Owing to tlio way In which
they wero iwcked the grenndtit had
only tbo slightest trnco of rust upon
them.
Tho dlscoTcry of tho weapon recalls
a bit of tbo ancient history of tha
country. In explaining their uvj Lieut.
Ilolcomb said that the grenades wero
hsndled only by tho grenadiers of tho
ship, who, walking out uiion the ynrd
arms of the old fashioned fighting ves
sels, throw them Into tho ranks of the
enemy. An explosion followed which
created havoc.
They weigh about four pounds and
nro shaped nfter tho fashion of tlio
bombs used by anarchists, and are

of tho now recruit nt tho fort was
