In an outside belt, elegantly embroidered, he Wore a superbly jeweled revolver, .war-- ranted to be useful as a weapon at long range, in the hand of a self fcollecied man resting under safe shelter. As to other personal furniture, hia comfortable figure waa adorn- ed with a fine gold watch, possess- ing a national reputation for beauty and value throughout the republic of Mexico, and a hat covered w,ith £old lace and bangles that made it the envy of all the beaux in town. Under these conditions Mr. Edgar Wood entered the ten mule stage that stood in the patio of the j- ,. t ,« , , „ ,,, ~ ±1 > t *« , •--^* - — • •• - r - - • which he had so exultantly salhod he said, with a smile and a bow, \ May 1 present you with 9 pistol, as good as there is in the republic except yotit own ?\ . , . \ Ah, tenor, now you flatter mfc; I accept it in your name, Amiguillo.

Have the goodness to be seated on my old €dat, and we will assist you in removing them; we are experienced valets.\ To have observed the face of Mr. Edgar Wood now, you would have thought he was engaged in a frolic. He used to gay, in telling this story, that he felt all through the performance as if he were being joked by a friend. ** And now,\ continued the lad- ron, \ we will trouble you, Senor Wood, to pass out your valise, if you will be so obliging.\ Mr. Wood hesitated for the first time, and looked around, but there Was no mercy; the muzzles of three pieces looked into his eyes, while he replied, \Very well-, gentlemen, if you insist.\ He handed out the heavy valise,which was taken aside by the Mexicans, while th« English looking thief kept guard at the stage door. When the precious cargo was re- moved to a ghort distance from its owner, the sentinel muttered to him in English, \if you give me $2,000, unseen, from your belt, you can have the rest; otherwise, I'll fix every dollar you've got.\ .—Jit* Wood felt sure he-had some- where seen the face, of which the mouth and chin were exposed, but if he suspected the truth, he kept it to himself, and quietly handed over the money to the man. In a few minutes the nearly empty valise was returned, and the party bade, the traveler adieu and wished him a safe journey In his disagreeable fix he could only ride till he met the return stage, and go with it to the capi- tal, under the shelter of a shawl lent him by a sympathetic lady among the passengers, with whom, at noon, he entered the patio, from thinTenSngln'rifttir'shadowy tion, overhearing herself desci beard; that he had reached into ^.J^ > um ? n » ¥ lf , alll F the coach and shot Yorke in the back, through the open doorway of the opposite side, as he was tered the patio of the Hotel Itur- bide with the body, of Mr. Yorke, it was met bv Wood, to whom the I j for pistols will be shewn in their —,, . , . ,, * t . , ,, .
