A dozen hands were on a. dozen Windows, prep u‘iug :0 push them up, when the unlimannered small m an walked down the aisle with a revolver in own hand, holding them awful carelessly. The passengers were glued to their seats, several shrivc‘ed right upâ€"that is, the places that knew them seemed to be vacznt, 'l‘hey ducked their heads â€"slld off their seats â€"got under or between seats. The big man, seeing the stif, turned just in time to catch a glimpw of the carelcasly handled revolvers. At thatjuncture every- body disappeared.

He got". in at the first station south of Denver. Ha wore an immense braid-brim- med hat, the brim sticking out like huge fans. He was, like many of the passengers, cozmloss. A rough gray flmnel shirt, open at the neck, a huge belt about his Waist and high top boots, Inio which half a yard of his p mmloons was crammed, completed his dress. He carried an immense knife at his waist and a pair of pistols almost big enough for guns were thrusn into his belt. His long hair fell like a cataract; down his back, and his grizzled beard~aboub three Week’s growthâ€"made up one of the most formid- able figu es I ever beheld. fusing the small man in the man- the latter sigrei to him.

There was silence for te'I or fifteen minute; Nobody spoke. Everybody wha observed the actions of the small man and the conduct- tor as he hastened out of the car were ap- prehensive. The Spanish Government has abandoned its intention of expelling foreign journalists, who defied the pres! censorship by sending accurate account: of the ravages of the cholera, and the trouble over the Caroline Islands. of life, and persons speaking to her urnntl are also buyootted.

As he was I held my breath when he looked at me as he cant his eyes aroundin search of a. seat. I was mightily relieved when he went; for- ward and preempted a vacant seat. So were all the passengers near me.

A little while later the con- ductor passed through. The little man near the man who thirsted to tackle the train- xoblnn rose quietly and selected another seat behind the big man, a consldemble dis- tance bAok of him. The big mm, at the end of the ten minutes, looked around and smiled. He surmised the xenon. “ Lord I" he said to the man just in front of him.
