Webster went Immediately to hta
room, called for pen and. paper, ind
proceeded at once to do usat whlcli he
had never done before?to wit, propare
hla last will and testament. In
a few brief paragraphs he made a
holograph! will and split his hankroll
equally between the two human
oeings tie cured Tor most?Billy Geary
and Dolores Ruey. "Bill's n gambler
like me," he ruminated; "so I'll play
safe. The girl Is a conservative, and
after Bill's wad Is gone, he'd he boiled
In oil before he'd prejudice hers."
Having made his will. Wehster
made a copy of It The copy he placed
In an envelope marked: "For Jack, t
Not to be opened until after my
death." This envelope he then enclosed !
In a larger one and mailed to Billy at '
C-olle de Concordia No. 19.

drive. I
Returning to the hotel he dismissed
the carriage, climbed the three short
steps to the entrance and was passing
through the revolving portal, when
from his rear s? me one gave the
door a violent shove, with the result
that the turnstile partition behind him
collided with Ids hack with sulhelent
force to throw him against the partition
In front. Instantly the door
ceased to pivot, with Webster looked
neatly In the triangular space between
the two sections of the revolving
door and the Jnmh.
He turned and heheld In the section

Once free of the door, Webster

Sobrantean to conclude his precipitate
entrance. When he di^l. Webster
looked hint over with mild curiosity
and uoweu with great condescension.
**Dld any gentleman ever tell the
senor that he Is an Ill-mannered

Spanish. "If not. I desire to give
the senor that Information, and to tell
him that his size alone prevents me
trouj giving him a nice little spanking."
"IMg!" the rude one answered hotly.
Hla olive features paled with anger,

Webster grinned at him tantallzlngly.
That decided him. No Latln-Amerlcan,
with the exaggerated ego of hla
race, can hear even a suspicion of
ridicule. The officer wnlked fiercely
toward Webster and swung his arm
toward the tatter's face In an efTort
to land a slap that was "meant."
Webster merely threw buck his head
and avoided the blow; Ills long left
arm shot out and heat down the :
Sohrantean's guard; then Webster's
right hand closed around the officer's
collar. "Come to me thou Insolent

"lk? you know, I had a notion It was

"Well, I suppose I'm In for a duel
now," he added to himself as he
climbed the stairs to his room. "I
think that will be most Interesting."
John Stuart Webster chunged Into
dry clothing and descended to the

civilly In Spanish. "And you are
Lieutenant Arredondo?"
The visitor rose, bowed low and Indicated
he was that gentleman. "I

In most excellent Rngllsh, "in the Interest

"You would accord my friend the ;

"That lets me out. amlgo," Webster"
laughed. "Henavldes isu't a gemleman.
He's a cutthroat, a murdering
little hlack-and-tan-honnd. Do I understand
he wants me to tight a duel
with lilm?"
Lieutenant Arredondo could not
trust himself to speak, and so he
bowed profoundly.
"Very well, then. Lieutenant," Webster
agreed. "I'll fight him."
"Tomorrow morning at five o'clock."
"Five tnlnutes from now If you any
so."
"Captain Renavldes will be grateful
for your willing spirit, at least," the
second replied bitterly. "You realize,
of course. Mr. Webster, that as the
challenged party, the choice of weapons
rests with you."
"Certainly. I wouldn't have risked j
n duel If the choice lay with the other
fellow. With your permission, my
dear sir. we'll fight with Mauser rltles
at a thousand yards, for the reason
that I never knew a (Ireaser that could
hit the broad shle of a brewery at any
range over two hundred and fifty
yards." Webster chuckled fiendishly.
Lieutenant Arredondo bit his lips In
anger and vexation. "1 cannot agree !
to such an extraordinary duel," he i
complained. "It la the cuxtom In
Sohrnnte for gentlemen to flght with
rapiers."
"Oh, dry up. yon sneaking mar- ,

pointed toward the hotel door. "Out, |

Lieutenant Arredondo rose and with

Webster followed, and as his visitor

At about the same honr Neddy

"If W. cables accepting reply rejecting

Neddy Jerome wiped his spectacles,

from John Stuart Webster and read
as follows:

Again Mr. Jerome had recourse to

CHAPTER XI.
For fully an hour after retiring
John Stuart Webster slept the deep,
untroubled sleep of a healthy unworried
man; then one of the many
s|H?cles of "Jigger" which flourish Just
north and south of the equator crawled
Into bed with him and promptly
proceeded to establish Its commissary
on the inner flank of the Websterlan
thigh, where the skin Is thin and the
Mood close to the surface. As a consequence,
Mr. Webster awoke suddenly,
obliterated the Intruder and
got out of bed for the purpose of
anointing the Injured spot with
alcohol?which being done, an active
search of the bed resulted In the discovery
of three more Jiggers and the
envelopment of John Stuart Webster's
soul In the fogs of apprehension.
"'Tls tin evil land, tilled with tiou
hie," he mused as he lighted a
elgnret. "! wish Bill were here to
advise me. He ought to be able to
straighten this deal out and assure
the higher-ups that I'm not hutting In
on their political affairs. But Bill's
up-country and here 1 am under surveillance
and unable to leave the
hotel to talk It over with Andrew
Bowers, the only other white expert
I know of in town. And by the way,
they're after Andrew, too! I wonder
what for."
He smoked two cigarets, the while
he pondered the various visible aspects
of this dark mess In which he
found himself floundering. And finally
he arrived at a decision. "These
chaps aren't thorough," Webster decideo.
"They'll see me safely to bed
and pick me up again in the morning
?so I'll take a chance that the coast
Is c'ear, slip out now and talk It over
with Andrew."
He looked at his watch?eleventhirty.
Hurriedly he dressed, strapped
on Ills automatic pistol, drngged Ills
bed noiselessly to the open window
and tied to the bed-leg the rope he
used to lash hi* trunk : then he low

promptly accepted.
"To your beautiful eyes," Webster
toasted her. "And now would you

Billy's friend Mr. Bowers?"
She shuffled away, to. retnrn presently
with the news that' Mr. Bowers
was In his room and would be delighted
to receive Mr. Webster. Mother
Jenks led Webster to the door,
knocked, announced him and discreetly
withdrew.

Webster In fraternnl embrace, and to

after which he backed off, bowed once
more, and said In Spanish:
"Sir. my life is yours."
"It is well he gnve it to you before
you took It." Andrew said In English, J
and he laughed, noting Webster's confusion.
"And this gentleman Is Colonel
Pablo Carnveo."
"Thunder, I'm in for It again," Web- I
eter thought?and he was, for the '
amiable colonel embraced Webster and
kissed his left cheek before turning to ,
Andrew.
"You will convey to our guest, in
English. Don Rlcardo, assurnnces of
my profound happiness in meeting
him." he said in Spanish.
"The Colonel says you're all to the '
mustard." Andrew at once Interpreted j
merrily.
"Rather a liberal translation," Webster
retorted In Spanish, whereat Colonel
Cnrnveo sprang up and clapped
his hands In delight.
"Your happiness, my dear Colonel," 1
Webster continued. "Is extravagant
grief compared with iny delight In
meeting a Sobrantean gentleman who
has no desire to skewer ine." He turned
to Andrew. "While Introductions
are In order, old son, suppose you
complete the Job and Introduce yourself.
I'm always suspicious of a man
with an alias."
"Then behold the death of that Impudent
fellow Andrew Bowers, late
valet de chamhre t<^.thls eminent nitn- j
log engineer and prince of gentlemen, J
Mr. John Stuart Webster. Doctor
Pnclieco, will you be good enough to
perform the operation?"
"This gentleman," said the doctor, !
laying his hand on Andrew's shoulder,
"is Don Iticardo Lulz Ruey, a gentleman.
a patriot, and the future president
of our unhappy country."
Webster put his hands on the young
man's shoulders. "Rlcardo, my son," he
asked earnestly, "do you think you
could give me some little hint of the
approximate date on which you will
assume ofllce? By the nine gods of
war, ! never wanted a friend at court
so badly as I wnnt one tonight."
Webster sat down and helped himself
from a box of cigars he found on
Ricardo's bureau. "I feel I am among
friends at last," he announced between
preliminary puffs "so listen while I
spin a strange tale. I've been the picture
of bad luck ever since I started
for this Infernal?this wonderful country

a Sunday morning stroll In Jackson

to knife another. In the Interest
of common decency I Interfered and

Ricardo Ruey sprang for John
Stuart Webster. "By George," he said
In English. "I'm going to hug you, too.
I really ought to kiss you, because I'm
that man you saved from assassination,
but?too long in the U. S. A., I
suppose; I've lost the customs of my
country/'
"Get out," yelled Webster, fending
him off.. "By the way, Ricardo?I'm
going to call you Rick for short?do
you happen to have any relatives In
this country?"
"Yes, a number of second nnd third
cousins."
"Coming down on the steamer, I

"Ask It now."

"But you're?why, lmng it. You're
not a Latin?"
"No. I'm a mixture, with Latin predominating.
My forebears were pure
Castllluus from Madrid, and crossed
the Western ocean In caravels. It's
been a matter of pride with the house
of Ituey to keep the breed pure, but
despite all precautions, the family tree
has been grafted once with a Scotch
uiisue. twice with the Illy of France,
and once with the shamrock of Ireland.
My mother was an Irish woman."
"You alibi yourself perfectly, Illcardo,
and my curiosity is appeased. Permit
me to continue my tale," he udded
In Spanish, and forthwith he related
with humorous detail his adventure at
the gangplank of the steaner that had
borne him and Itlcnrdo Ituey south.
Itlcnrdo Interrupted him. "We know
all about that, friend Webster, and we
knew the two delightful gentlemen had
been told off to get you?unofficially.
The Sohrnntean revolutionary Junta
has headquarters In New Orleans. It
Is composed of political exiles, for
Sarros, the present dictator of Sohrnnte,
rules with nn Iron hand, and
has a cute little habit of railroading
his enemies to the cemetery via the
treason charge and the firing squad.
He killed my father, who was the
best Dresldent this h?>nifht?<i cmintru

duty to avenge my father and a
patriotic duty to take up the task he
left unfinished?the task of making
over my country.
"In Sobrnnte, as In most of the countries
In"Central America, there are
two distinct classes of people?the
aristocrats and peons?uud the aristocrat
futtens on the peon, as he has
hud a habit of doing since Adam. We
haven't any middle class to stand as
a buffer between the two?which
makes It a sad proposition. My father
was nn Idealist and a dreamer and he
dreamed of reform in government and
n solution of the agrarian problem
which confronts all Latin-America. lie
trusted one l'ahlo Sarros, an educated
peon, who had commanded the government
forces under the regime my
father overthrew. My tender-hearted
parent discovered that Sarros was
plotting to overthrow him ; hut tnsteud
of having htm shot, he merely removed
htm from command. Sarros gathered

government forces my father hnd conquered,

artillerymen and?he won out. My

"A worthy ambition! So you organl7Pfl

Iticurdo nodded. "Word of It renehed
Sarros. and he sent his brother Raoul,
chief of tlie intelligence bureau, to investigate
and report. As fast as he
reported, Colonel Caraveo reported to
me. My father's son possesses a natue
to conjure with. Consequently ?t was
to the Interest of the Sarros administration
that I be eliminated. They
watched every boat; hence my scheme
for eluding their vigilance?which,
thanks to you, worked like a charm."
"But," Webster complained, "I'm not
sitting In the game at all, and yet I'm
caught between the upper and nether
millstones."
"That is easy to explain.. You interfered
that morning in Jackson square;
then Raoul Sarros met you going
uhoard the steamer for Buenaventura
and you raanhundled him, and naturally,
putting two and two together, he
has concluded that you are not only
his personnl enemy but also a friend
and protector of mine and consequently
an enemy of the stnte."
"And as a consequence I'm marked
for slaughter?"
"It would be well, my friend," Doctor
Pacheco suggested, "to return to
the United States until after lilcnrdo
and his friends have eliminated your
Nemesis."
"How soon will that happy event
transpire?"
"In about sixty days we hope to be
ready to strike, Mr. Webster."
Colonel Caraveo cleared his throat.
"I understand from Uicardo that you
and another American are Interested
In a mining concession, Mr. Webster."
Webster nodded.
"Is this a concession from a private
landholder or did your friend secure
It from the Sarros government ?"
"From the government. We pay ten
per cent, royalty, on a ninety-nine-year
lease, and that's nil I know about It.
I have never seen the property, and
my object In coming was to examine It
and. If sntistled, finance the project."
"If you will return to your hotel,
my dear sir," Colonel Caraveo suggested,
"and remain there until noon
tomorrow, I feel confident I can guarantee
you Immunity from attack thereafter.
I have a plan to influence my
associates in the Intelligence office."
"Bully for you, Colonel. Give tne sixty
days in which to operate, and I'll
have finished my Job in Sobrante and
gotten out of It before that gang of cutthroats
wakes up to the fact that I'm
gone. I thank you. sir."
"The least we can do. since von hnve
saved Rlcnrdo's life and rendered our
cause a great service, Is to save your
life." Colonel Carnveo replied.
"This Is more comfort than I had
hoped for when 1 came here, gentlemen.
I am very grateful, I assure
you. Of course this little revolution
you're cooking up Is no affair of mine,
j and I trust I need not assure you that
your contldence is quite safe with
me."

rose and bowed like a pair of
