CHAPTER XI.

“ You Have Overplayed Your Hand."“ I am afraid that I have been indis­

creet, Sonnr Stanway.” Torre, with his old smile charged now with some­thing of mockery and much of triumph, held out a little piece of white paper to Stamway, who, key in hand, had just come from Pedro on his way to the master’s room. “Tint I think that I can plead an altogether unusual po­sition as my excuse. You will pardon me, scaur V”

Stairway took the paper, guessing what it was, and read It s w ift ly :

from the suhorHtt riufkes nw mtre or what I wus beginning to suspect. Gaucho, come with me.”

With no further word, leaving T orre ’s mystified face looking nfter him, he went out, Gaucho at his heels.

“ Gaucho,” he said, sfieaking swiftly from beyond the closed door, “ I want you to come to the master’s room. Bring some men with you— six, ton— I don’t know how many we shall need. I.et two o f them bring axes Let all

X I carry side arms. Bring the picked I men, Gaucho; the hardest men on the ; rancho. I think Hint ihere is going to lie fighting this time.”

“The master?” cried Gaucho. “The senoritn? You know— ”

“ I know nothing. But I think—I that they have never for a second left | the house! flurry, Gaucho!”

Am’ Gaucho hurried, his own face as mystified as Torre’s. Stanwny went quickly to the bedroom.

“ Somewhere in these great thick walls there is a passageway,” he whis­pered to himself. “ It runs from this room throughout the house nnd to the east wing where Teresa’s rooms are.

“ Somewhere, down below perhaps, there is a room, a dungeon, l think that It Is just under the drawing room; 1 think that that ts where Me la Guerra is ; that many o f the things which Torre said were meant to he heard by the old man that they might taunt and mock him; t think that Torres men down there heard the crashing glass,

He Turned a Corner,

Ml Querido Senor B il ly :To save papa grande, to save me

from a ll that ts horrib le, th ere iB no w ay but to do w h at T o rre auks. In gran d fa th er 's room, behind the g rea t m ah ogany bed, th ere is a p a in tin g on the w a ll. t ,

T h ere is a s p o t In the w oodw ork, th ree fe e t from th e floor, ten from the northw est co rn e r , w here you must p ress w ith your finger. I t w ill disclose the banco. G iv e him th e money— for the sake o f

Your Teresa.

“ You w ill pardon m y having read It?” again sm ilingly from Torre.

“ W here dfd you get this thing?” cried Stanwny.

T orre pointed to the window, whose panes lie had broken just before three o'clock.

“ There. On the floor. Some one threw it in on the floor while you were running so giddily across the border. You see tlds is very well planned, senor. Is it not? Even my lieuten­ants— ”

“ I f I do not do as she asks?” cut in Stanway, his low-lidded eyes sharp up­on T orre ’s.

T orre shrugged.“ W ho knows? Perhaps they w ill

take the trouble to find a priest to give the senoritn in holy matrimony to— '

In sudden rage Stanway, his nerves jangling, his rage reddening his face, leaped at the man, anil as he leaped struck, struck lull'd— his hard, clenched fist smashing into the evii smile, cut­ting the lips so that the blood ran from them, sending Torre reeling backward across the room.

“ Shut up !” lie cried hoarsely. “ You mention the senorita once more and— ”

H is teeth closed with a little om i­nous click. Torre, w iping the blond from his lips, glared at him with a boundless, almost speechless, rage.

“ Coward !” lie sneered. “ Since T am a prisoner, with a half dozen men ready to spring upon me, you attack me-*—”

“ Gaucho!” called Stanway.“ Si, senor 1” Gaucho’s brown face

brightening, his eyes looking happier than they had looked fo r two days.

“ Do not interfere. Do not let your men take hand, no matter what hap­pens.” Then he swung about upon Torre. “ Do you want to finish it now?” he said curtly.

But Torre was once more himself, smiling, at ease, only a fierce hatred iu his eyes.

“ Gracias, senor!” he returned. “ I shall merely make you pay fo r that hloiv in my own way. Aud now I ask another ten thousand dollars as ran­som fo r the old man nnd the girl. Ten thousand dollars fo r a Mow, senor! D o you care to strike again?”

Stanway shrugged.,“ Yon have overplayed your hand,

T 'W . " he. £aid autetly. “ This note

“And De la Guerra was never to he taken from the house?”

“No. It seemed safer this way.” “There was every hazard in it—” “ Simply because you happened to

he at ttie rancho,” returned Dempton wilh n little flash ot bitterness. “Had there boon only the senoritn, it would have been easy to have worked on her love for her grandfather.”

“ And Torre?”“Killed a man a month ago in Sun

Antonin— is running away from the gallows. With the money he expected to make from tins he could buy the silence of the one man who can iden­tify him as the murderer. It was his only chance.”

“ .I na re z ?”“ Is actually a rebel oaptaln. Torre

was to g ive hint his .share. Then Torre was to.have a commission in (lie rebel army. He looked to distinguished fn vors when the rebels fought their way into power. Now— ”

“Now what?”“ Now, If he goes into Mexico the

rebels will shoot him as a traitor. That was another chance he was tak­ing. He was to give five thousand dol­lars to the cause. Pur llmt they let him have Juarez and the other men. He was to give his life i f he lied to them, if he tricked them or—if he failed. Ho could never get across the border without their spies ifinding him.”

Then Gattelto returned with word that everything was ready. Vidal, atStanway’s command, hound Dempton securely once more, hand and foot, nnd tossed him to the bed as one might toss a sack of wheat. The men had kicked off their shoes and boots, and stood eager aud expectant.

Stanway, his revolver in his rigid hand, pressed with (lie left thumb upon the spot in tin* paneling where another thumb had pressed

There was a little click, and the pan el slid hack into the wall, showing a narrow doorway, a parrow passageway beyond. There were candles hunting there, their steady* flames casting a clear, yellow light.

“Each man keep three feet behind the man in front of him," whispered Stanway. “We must have room. Vidal, Gauclvn, come just behind me.

H e stepped through the door into the two-foot wide hallway which ran along inside the wall, its trend Aist- ward and downward. There were no steps, but the slant led quickly under the foundations o f the great adobe building.

StanvCny passed the first candle set into a ,riche in the rough wood wall. A lready ho fe lt that he must lie below the level o f the floor when he c a trio to the .second candle. Hej:a. the flame

u 'little breatli (K airwas less steady playing '-.iSto it.

He Bemed a corner, tire hallway opened .up suddenly into a small, roiigh-ffBtUwd room some, eight or ten feet square.

Across ike room was a heavy barred door; hi the center o f tire floor was a couch, and on the couch a ntan was* lying upon his back, his hands clasped behind ids head, a cigarette; between his lips.

Stanway Was in the room, noiseless in his stockinged feet, Vidal at his side. Gaucho was entering when the man hqp.nl, turned quickly, and saw them. He sprang to his feet.

Bift the cry rising to his lips was choked hack in his throat try the hard hiinds of the rancher. The struggle ended almost as soon as it began.

But some sound o f the b rie f scuffle must have penetrated to the other side of tlio oak door. Before the rest of the vnqueros could croWd into the lit­tle- room the door had been jerked open, a dark, bearded face showed at the crack.

There was a snarled curse, the door slammwt shjjt, and there was the sound o f otlq i- burs lifted across it upon the other sfd«.

“Your aw»s!” shouted Stanway, leaping to one side to make room. “ Vidal, ymu take one. Get it down, quick P

But, even to the attack of the great arms o f aland another of llie cow­boys, the great thick door slot id defiant as the i*9>ift seconds fled hy. From the other side came tlio sound of quick, snapping voices, of scurrying feet, the sound o f a cry which tingled through Stanway’:: blood and sent Vidal with

the weirds which went with it, I think that we are going to find De la Guerra and Teresa there.”

He studied the walls.There was nothing to hint at n secret

door.He moved out the lied, found the

spot wlgx-h Teresa’s note told of, set his thujuflkto it, nnd saw a panel drop down. :LJfVise, showing a great iron safe sv.; i* the wall. The safe was lockffl' tfiti key missing. But lie knew that ha had found De la Guerra’s hank. He closrjtl Hie panel swiftly us Gaucho and hie hffcn came to the door.

“Qne & senor?” Gaucho nskeil quickly. And the black eyes of the dark-faced men thronging behind him — e rigid; OKpectant— told as well as words uurt Gaucho had whispered to his mc'n li)ut the Americano had a plan, that h#fy biy behind it.

- “ f ’orr.c ha, Gaucho. Shut the door. Ilow fiift-ajr men?"

They efttered as he spoke. Ho count­ed as the fast man closed the door he-

I : —

“Tea, ftrntor. F tva m ore a r e com*mg.”

“And”— sternly— “ you can vou ch for them, for all o f them ? Y o u can trust every man to the u tterm ost, Gaucho T"

“To the uttermost, s en o r," as stern­ly. “ To the death In th e s e rv ic e of the master nnd"— his v o ic e breaking a little— “ the senorita.”

“And the other five?” ■ » .'I'iFftf ( "'j"The same.”“Good! This Is m y p lan . Com*

speaking swiftly, his v o ic e low ered bo Hint the men must cran e th e ir neck* and lean forward to h ea r. H e toll them of his hope tha t th o se they sought had never been ta k en out the hacienda.

“ Now," he ended, “ th ere is no doubt a passageway running from h e re totbe senorlta’s rooms. I t w e f in d this **1 of it and attack they m ay escape at the other end. So w e m ust b e ready-

“ Gaucho, send tw o m en in to tbs si'iu rita’s rooms. L e t th em b e ready, armed and watchful. Send tw o mort to the stairway. L e t T o r r e an d Juare* he hound nnd watched o v e r by one man only, n man whom you can trust and who will blow their b ra in s out be­fore he lets them escape."

“Lot every other man in th e house he armed and rendy. T h en — ”

“Then, senor?" eagerly.“Then"— with quiet determ ination—

"we shall find where the passage la If we have to tear down the w a lls . Hurry, Gaucho!”

Gaucho ran upon his erran d , calling by name the men he w ish ed to go with him. Stanway, bidding th ose w ith him to he very silent, not k n o w in g what means Hie men he sought m igh t bar* of overhearing what h appen ed In tM room, began a silent search fo r so©* sign of a passageway In th e fbic* walls.
