'Now la the time to speak, Luclo," said Hubris. "Vou have been sitting there with Are in jour eyes, devour ing Jose with glances. Tell me what was wrong." Luclo atood up. He lacked the rounded, blubbcry face of a peon; his fealureB were more the type of the aristocrat and his checks were so hollow that they pulled at the corners of his mouth anil kept him with the semblance of a sneering mile. He said, "Jose, stand up!" "Ay, to you or to any man!" said a youth wllh very wide shoulders end very bowed legs. He was the true peon type. He swaugcred out and stood well forward on the floor. HEN they came chasing after went down under me. I ran as well as my legs would carry me. I heard a dismounted comrade? Leave a friend behind for the Ruralcs? How-, ovef. you have been with me only a short time. What I tell you now you will remember. No?" "T WILL remember," said Jose", siid A denly abashed and staring at to ' asked I floor. "Are you satisfied, Luclo?' the master. "No," said Luclo. ) "Take knives, then. Strip to th waist. Carve each other or kill each other. That is the law. Dut we'll hava no hatreds Inside my band." "Good!" said Jos, and began to tear off his Jacket. Luclo said noth ing, but there was speech In the burning of his eyes and in his sneer lng lips. That was when Brother Pascnal atood up and went to Luclo. "Luclo," ho said, "when you! brother was sick In the mountains, I searched till I foo id him and car ried him into the ea.np on my shoul ders," "Therefore," said Luclo, "ask ml for my right hand and It Is yours." "Give It to me, then," aald the gigantic friar. So ho took the right hand of tho astonished Luclo and halt led and halt dragged blm acroai the floor to confront Jose. "Give youl hand to me, Jose," he commanded. "My hand la my own," said Jose sullenly. The huge grip of Pascual closed suddenly on tho nape of Jose's neck He shook the young bandit violent ly. A knife flashed Into the hand ol Jose. It Jerked back, but It was nol driven home Into the great, fearlosi FUR CAPE, LATEST closed sud-1 Hftf fg?&rW By RITA IEKKH fAuoctaied Praia Fuahlon Editor.) PARIS. Pur capes hove tp ped on to tlie style at&ge here u ttie lat word in winter chic. In oft luxurious models of fox, ermine or mink, they parade aero the night time scene, while In seal, nutria, or leopard they evader Into the daytime pageant. Their lengths vary all the way from the elbows to the knees, but the favorite is a hip length dcaign. , A whole row of foxes make s nos model designed by Helm one of the moat luxurious looking wraps Paris has seen In years. The pelts, com plete to tall, are hung clear across the back of the shoulders, falling to mid thigh in the back and cut on 11 rising line in front. Another simpler design Is composed of two skins that enfold the shoulders and upper arms and descend to a point In the back Meggy Roiiff makes a hip length ermine model with the pelt running horizontally and adds a muff finished with black-tipped talis for dash, wh:le other designers favor luxurious fluffy affalra of white. The Duchesse de Caylus and the Duchees of Leeds are among smart continentals who like fur capes for daytime wear. Both are wearing Molynenux capea of silver fox with the pelt worked on the straight, the length extending to the hlpline. Both The hugs grip of Ikasouol denly on hoof-beuts. I looked hack and jaw (lint a friend was riding up. It was Jt5c I held out my hand to let him help me up, but, by St. Christopher! he galloped right past mo! He even tried to look the other way." And the Ruralcs and the soldiers were sure to get me, except that I found a erack among the rocks and ran and fell Into it like a lizard. Mateo Rubiiz, give me a Judgment! Is that fellowship? A lame dog would be better treated by Its fellows!" A little murmur came out of the throats of the crowd. It was not loud, but It was high-pitched, and therefore the frlnr know the strain of anger from which it proceeded. "Now speak. Joae,' said Kiibrlt. "This!" said Jostf, loudly. "I saw I'Uffo running, of courno, I wanted to help him. But I had a whole sock of the gold In tho saddle bug. To throw away myself and my horse- that was nothing, though the Huralrs were sure to catch us both It I tried to make the pinto carry double. Rut there was the gold. So I rode on. Speak up with a big voice, t.uclo. Are you worth thirty pounds of gold?" Luclo said nothing. lie looked ready to leap at Jose, but he could not bring up words from his throat. The whole room was hushed. Men leaned from their places, their eyes Intent on the If ad or, who still walked calmly up and down. Hot now he paused and pointed ihe mgged joint of roast meat at Jos. "Sllrer Is a good thins; snd gold is better, bol sllrer and gold and emer alds and diamonds are not worth one drop of Mood. Blood li better than money. Jose, you hare not been with me toag. Ton bare not learned Otherwise, hy Baa Juan of Capls- trano. I wools hang yon from that rafter with my own hands! Hide by breast of Brother Pascual. It wni awo of the frlnr ruther than tin fierce yell that wont up from the others that caused the knifo to drop to tho floor. .Vow give me your hand!" shouted Pascual, enraged, "or I'll carry you out and throw you into the slime of the hog-wallow, where I've thrown bigger and stronger men than you!" "Brother, forgive me!" said Jos6,j helplessly, and ha gave his right hand. Pascual instantly clapped It Into that of Luclo, He stood over the two men, who glared at oue another. There wob a moment of pause, so tense that the breathing of tho men In the room could he henrd, and the ripping sounds as Mnteo Rubrit tors at his Joint of rmnt meat. Then Jose sold, suddenly, weakly: "I was wrong. Luclo. I hated you be on u no you got tho black mare that 1 wonted. Will you forget?" "Is It true?" sold Luclo, stunned oiid gaping. "Do you confess this be fore them oil? Then you are my brother!" And suddenly he had nuns his arms around Joae". Mateo Kubrlz hurled towards the hearth the big bone which he had picked clean. "Ha!" cried Kubrli, 'mr men have turned into women. Well, let them ko so long as I have you, Pas cual. Have you only come here to make my poor fellows drop their knives on the floor?" "I have como to speak seriously with you, Moteo," answered the big friar. ' "You hear that he wonts to speak to ma!" called Uuhrii. "Then why do you others wait? Away with yon!"

The Baroue&a of Auxlon favors a shorter cape of black brettachwantz, which she wears with a plain black wool frock, while another chic Eu ropean prefers a hip length nutria model. One of the smartest costumes seen at a holiday tea at the Rltz com bined a black wool frock with a yel low satin searf and a black wool cape lined with beautiful leopard skins. Cape, toque and muff-glove ensem ble of nutria are other smart not which have appeared. They are com posed of hip length cape, a trim mili tary looking toque and gloves whose cuffs are so large they can be used as a muff. Breltsch wants dyed prune color makes one of the most sinking out fit of the winter season.
