PEACEMAKER
S Pascual ale, Mateo Rubrii
strode up and down with hit
Jeweled wine cap In one hand and In
the other a fat aecond Joint from
which he tore Ions shreds with thoae
powerful teeth of tala.
'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

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

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

PARIS. Pur capes hove tp

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

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!"

scarfs. 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

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

a three-quarter length coat, which
goes over a wool frock of the same
shade, and a trim military toque.
