PAGE EIGHT SVJ " ."a MPIP-flM ROMAWci BY, EVAN EVANS iT"" 4YNOPBIB: Vatee, ..ur ..nil I10 Uontana hid have been shown .1 u'iv Into lta lorf of Duraya by Hasita. But beore thru could etenl the emerald crown of Our Lady from tieneral Estrada the gover nor, and return II to the church from vhich the governor had stolen it in the first place, thei are eurprieed and forced to hide on a ledge outside the Governor's bed room. From that tlry perch they hear the governor question Rosita, who is, he thinl-s, too beautiful to be good. Chapter 22 TREACHERY '"-vH-HO!" murmured the general. "Are you tslking to me about marriage?" "I'm talking to you about noth ing," said Roslta. "I could go a general like Es trada he could go to some big ranch-owner with a hundred thou sand cattlo wltb rivers and moun tains all of his own a man like Estrada could find a man with a for tune and a daughter. Eh, Roslta?" "Well, there are plenty of them." "But let me tel. you I am going to be rich In my own right And then. Roslta well, I have eyes and I've used them. Do you understand? You are enough for me In yourself.'' She Jerked around towards him. "Ab. Is It that?" she asked. "Well, look at me and say some thing. What do you see?" "A big mustache," said the girl, calmly. It seemed to Montana that the general would surely fly Into a pas sion, but he only laughed. "When I'm on horseback, I look better." he said. "But I'm not beautl- ful. However, there are beautiful things about me." "There are the soldiers who are afraid not to follow you," said the girl. "They have followed me Into places, too. They have died like flies around me. Maybe they will die that way again. That Is what e are, to me. Flies, now that I am General Estrada. But because they arc afraid to run away when I lead them, one day I shall be rich." "Yes," nodded the girl. "The finest province In Mojlco I shall ask for It, and It shall he mine. Shall we help ourselves to the plunder, then?" "We?" "Yes, You and I. Roslta, I speak from my heart See what I am. Not beautiful. Not very young. But strong. There Is a brain up here on top of the mustache." "That Is true," she answered. "A BRAIN clever enough to see that Roslta Is worth more than a rich girl. Tell me, then are we to be married?" "Well, perhaps we are," she said. "And then you will stop letting your eyes run tbls way and that?" "I'll try to stop," she said. "It's hard to learn all at once." She waa bard as steel, bright as steel, cold as steel. There was no smiling about her, now. "Then we begin as trleni.a, and hope to end as lovers?" he asked. "We may end that way," said the girl. "Time teaches us how to put up with ugly things," said the general. "When you boar the crowd yelling for me and when you see the horse dancing under mo, then you will like me much better. But If we are friends, you know that there Is no lying hetwoen us?" TREE PES! CONTROL IN MEETING WEDNESDAY Orchard peat and disease control will be fully dlariuwd at meeting of fruit growers to be held for that pur pose on Wednesday. Feb. 30. at 3 p. m , tn the auditorium of the county court house, according to arrange ments made by County Agent, L. P. Wllcoi.

"Then tell me was it the truth 'ou spoke to me tonight?" "No," she said. A little electric prickling spread : ross the small of Montana's back. "I knew It was a He," said the jeneral, gently. "But truth Is always a welcome guest, even wber It comes late. Who was It tha. you sent to the postern and told about the signal that would bring out the ser geant?" At this she closed her eyes and bent back her head, as the Kid had seen her do before. But ; t last she looked at the governor again and said, "It was a gringo." "A gringo? And he has come safe ly Into this fort and gone out again?" "He has stalnei' his skin to make It darker. His hair Is black. But his eyes are blue." "Go on!" urged the general. "I shall have blm If I have to ride t thousand miles to get him." She jhook her .iead. do you say no?" he do manded. "Listen to me" If II Is some outlawed man, I bav friends among the bandits, also. : shall use enough money to warm thi cold hearts. Before long I shall lean his trail." "It Is El Keed!" she said. almos gloomily. the general repeated stupidly. The anger of Rubrlz at this treach ery made him actually murmur out loud. The Kid gripped his arm to call him back to himself. Ills own teeth were set. At told himself that he was seeing not Roslta, only, but the hearts of all pretty women. The general had taken the news like a bullet through the. body. "El Keed?" he repealed, stupid,). "But be Is far away In the north. Mexico Is closed against him". Ike the teeth of a wolf frozen dead. Ho will never dare to enter this country again. Some other mnn has pretended to be El Keed!" "It Is El Keed," she Insisted, In that flat voice. "In his own country there Is nothing for him to do hut sleep and grow fat That Is why be has come Into Mexico again." "But In Duraya here In my fort what could he want here?" "Tlfe ememld crown of Our Lady,'1 said tho girl. "Blood of my heart! Blood of Heaven! Blood of my heart!" gasped the general. "Why should ha look that here?" Tha girl smiled. "We are frlenda we tell no lies to one another?" said she. But Estrada had to take a turn or so up and down the room before he could face Roslta onco more. "Come away wllh me," he told her. "I shall tend you safely home. There are many things for me to do. If the gringo devil and robber has been Inside the fort If he hsi smelled the wny Roslta. you have told me more than the value of life. Come quickly!" They went off together, and th muttering voice of the general rolled Indistinctly over his shoulder: "El Keed In Duraya' Blood of my heart, what man would bellove It?" (Copyright, t$3).
