Generally speaking, the
man who deceives anil

of any sort is worse than
a murderer. Some of
the murderers I have

have met them, but I
am not going to tell you
now who they were.
What I mean by saying
they are decent is that

Then there is the man who is car

such man has recently been called

This fellow was getting wealthy
by taking money from hundreds of
persons under false pretenses.

Tlii're are many unwritten stories
about Mexico. Doubtless if an ac
count of tile hapiieniugs of that coun
try of turmoil could be laid out be
fore the novelist it would afford
tin ues 1 >r countless novels of adven
ture.
At the time President Wilson issued
l is manifesto of advice for Americans
tj leave Mexico there were not ouly a
liuuil er of forei-n residents there, but
l ersei engaged In building railroads,
locating Hi.—in short, developing
the country. From comparative pence
every tiling was turned to a show of
I war. Soldiers rode In the railroad
trains to protect them in case of at
tack. aj:'d a detachment of rural

'
foreign t ;s IV r constrained to do the
sauie thin.- for not to lie armed was
to lie it.: *|<ietloits.
i:d« rd Griggs. civil engineer, was
at this time eirvgod in locating a
railroad. A man who is interested in
a purpose Is like a gyroscope. Revolv
ing in a certain plane, it is hard to
turn him to another plane. Griggs,
when Pre--,dent Wilson's advice was
rroiuu -ati-d. had nearly finished his
wori* in Mexico and could not tear
himself away from it. lie strapped a
revolver about him. as did the force
tinder hi< command, and went on with
his work. Hut neither he nor they
had any thought of using their weap
ons The: simply wore them because
i every one eise did.
That Griggs might finish his #-ork
[' he was oniiged to go over a cer
tain section of the road that would
pass throii-h a mountain range, lie
was told that the region was infested
wi 'i bandits who would not hesitate
to t::Ice everything that belonged to
him and if they deemed it necessary
would murder him. Hut he must ei
ther abandon Ills work or go. so he
went
Taking with him a single assistant
named Hodman, he started on liorse

every moment to hear an order to
stand and deliver his valuables. Rut
the two rode on through the thick
tropical fuiiage that lined the roau
without hearing anything more terri
ble than the occasional growl of a
wild animal and were lulled to securi
j ty by the frequent piping of birds.
Rut when nearing the summit the
I blow fell. Ahead of them they could
see a ranch house, and from it ernerg
'! ed four meii w ho had evidently seen
| them approaching and, mounting
| horses, made straight for them. The>
were dre-<ed in the tawdry Mexican
costume, and before they reached the
; two wayfarers the jingle of their spurs
and the ge^ -aw adornments they wore
' were distinctly visible.
it was evident to Griggs and Rod
I man from their faces as well as their
actions that they belonged to that law

v\at' hiu,' the eontest Urlggs, taking
off liifS sombrero to tjils chieftain, po

done in politeness, tool; off his own
sombrero and, with a bow. replied:
"Si. senor." ("Yes. sir.")
The two uien rode away for a short
distance when Clings drew rein and
said:
"Senor, 1 have been told that there
are some persons in these mountains
who make a living by plundering trav
elers. Will you oblige me by taking
care of the valuables for myself and
my friend that they may not fall Into
the hands of these miscreants?"
While speaking he was taking his
money from his pockets and his watch
from his fob. The bandit took them,
bowing low as he was handed each ar
ticle. When the delivery had been
made the two men rode back to the
party, anil firlgss said In liuglisb to
itodman:
"These gentlemen will keep otir val
unities for the present. Hand over tin
contents of your pockets."
Havlug thus robbed himself nnd hi
friend, he turned again to the chief.
"I would further ask your protection
overnight. Will you allow us to re
main in your much till tomorrow?"
"Si. senor." replied the chief, dulling
his sombrero.
"You have greatly honored me.
senor." said Jo-e when he had made
bis gue*ts comfortable and set before
them a jug of pulque. "May I ask
Jiow it is that yon have intrusted your
valuables to a stranger?"
"It is not only the honest,\ apparent
in your countenance." replied the en
gineer. "but I am sure that you have
descended from some grandee who was
one of the conquerors of Mexico."
"Ilow did you know that, senor?"
"By your noble bearing."
Here was a new sensntiou for one
who had never before been trusted nnd
who. like most other Mexicans, prided
himself on having descended from one
of the conquerors. He kept the trav
