Akers residence their horses became frightened, threw the men off the wagon and ran away.

Near the Lidikay lane they met Dr. Casto's team and buggy and crashed into the vehicle, but the doctor escaped injury by jumping out. His horses broke loose from the wreck and ran over the wire fence and were caught on the far side of Brockway's field. The Butler team stopped where they fell until cut loose. The doctor's buggy looked like a cyclone had struck it.

"Do as I bid you, son," I said, "and I charge you not to leave this place until I come for you again. Now I passed out of the storehouse, shutting the door behind me. A minute later I wished that I hud staid where I was, since on the platform my eyes were greeted by a sight more dreadful than any that had gone before, for there, advancing toward us, were the women, divided into four great companies, some of them bearing infants in their arms. They came singing and leaping, many of them naked to the middle Nor was this all, for in front of them ran the pabas and such of the women themselves us were persons in authority.

These leaders, male and female, ran and leaped and sang, calling upon the names of their demon gods and celebrating the wickedness of their forefathers, while after them poured the howling troops of women. To and fro tlicy rushed, now making obeisance to the statue of Huitzel, now prostrating themselves before his hideous sister, the goddess of death, who sat beside him adorned with her carven nock-lace of men's skulls and hands, now lowing around the stone of sacrifice, and now thrusting their bare amis into the flames of the holy fire. For an hour or more they celebrated this ghastly carnival, of which even versed as I was in the Indian customs, could not fully understand the meaning, and then, as though some single impulse had possossHl them, they withdrew to the center of the open space, and forming themselves into a double circle, within which stood the pabas, of a sudden they burst into a chant so wild and shrill that as I listened my blood curdled in my veins. Ever as they sang, step by step they drew backward, and with them wont the leaders of each company, their eyes fixed upon the statues of their gods. Now they were but a segment of a circle, for they did not advance toward the temple.

Backward and outward they went, with a slow and solemn tramp. There was but one line of them now, for those in the second ring filled the gnps in the first as it wid-tned. Still they drew on till at length they stood on the sheer edge of the platform. Then the priests and the women leaders took their place among them, and for a moment there was silence, until at a signal one and all they Ix-nt backward. Standing thus, their long hair waving on the wind, the light of burning houses liar-ing upon their breasts and in their maddened eyes, they burst into the cry of: "Save us, lluitzell Receive us, lord god, our home!" Thrice they cried it, ench time more shrilly than before; then suddenly they were gone the women of tho Otomie were no more! With their own self slaughter they had consummated tho last celebration of tho rites of sacrifice that over shall bo held in tho City of Pines.

The devil gods were dead, and their worshipers with thuui.

These men of the Otomie hud lost their country, their wives, their wealth, their brethren al.d their homes. Therefore life, with freedom to wander whither they would, seemed na great thing to them.

Ho they met tho boon that I had won from tho mercy of our fix, as had matters gone otherwise they would have met the buno, in sullen silence. I came to Otomie, and to her I also told the news. "I had hoped to die where I nm," sho answered. "But so 1k it. Death always to be found." Only my son rejoiced, Ix-causo lie knew that God had saved us all from death by sword or hunger.

''Father," ho said, "the Spaniards have given us life, but they tuko our country and drive us out of it. Where, then, shall wo go?" 'I do not know, my son," I answered. 'Father," tho lad said again, "'let us leave this land of Aiiahuac, where there is nothing but Spaniards and sorrow. IjcI us find a ship and sail across the seas to England, our own country." Tho boy spoke my very thought, and my heart leajKnl at his wolds, though I had no plan to bring tho matter about. I pondered a moment, looking at Otomie.

"The thought is good, Toule," she said, answering my unspoken question, "l'or you and for your son there is no iHtter, but for myself I will answer in tho proverb of my people, 'Tho earth tiiat lnurs us lies lightest on our Then she turned, making ready to cjnit the storehouse of tho temple, when- wo had been lodgixi during tho siege, tmd no inoro was said about the matter. Before tho sun set a weary throng of men, with some few women and children, were marching across tho courtyard that surrounded tho pyramid, for a bridge of timbers taken from tho temple had loen made over tho breach in tho roadway thut wound about its side. At tho gates tho Hpauiards wore waiting to receive us. Wo were sorted out. Tho men of small condition, together with tho children, were taken from tho ruined cliy by an escort and turned loose upon tho mountains, while- those of nolo went brought to the Spanish camp, to lie questioned there before they were set free.

with my wife and son, was led to the palace, our old home, there to learn tho will of the Captain Diaz. It is but a little way to go, and yet there was something to lm seen in tho path, for as wo walked I looki-d up, and before me, standing with folded arms and opart from all men, was Do liarcia. I had scarcely thought of him for pome day.i, so full had my mind bi-en of other matters, but at tho sight of his evil fano I remembered that while this man lived sorrow and danger must 1h my liedfellows. Ho watt-hod us pass, taking note of all. Then ho called to 1110, who walked last: "Farewell, Cousin Wlnglleld.

Vou havo lived through this Unit also and won a free pardon, you, your woman and your brat together. If tho old warhorso who is set over us as a captain had listened to mc, you should have burned at the stake, every one of you, but so it is. Farewell for awhile, friend. I am away to Mexico to report those matters to tho viceroy, who may havo a word to say." I made no answer, but asked of our conductor that same Spaniard whom 1 had saved from tho sacrlllce what tho senor meant by his words. "This, Teulo: That there has ls-en a quarrel liotweeii our comrade Sareeda and our captain.

The former would haveirrant-ed you no terms, or failing this would havo decoyed you from your stronghold with false promises and then havo put you to tho sword as inlidcls with whom 110 oath is binding. But tho captain would not have it so, for ho said that faith must Imi kept even with tho heathen, and we whom you hud saved cried shame on him. And so words ran high, and in the end the S-nor Sareeda, who is third Iu command among us, declared that he would lio no party to this peacemaking, but would Imi gone to Mexico with his servants, there to report-to tho viceroy. Then the Captain Diaz bade him lx-gono to hell If ho wished and report to tho devil, saying that he had always Ix-lieved that ho hud escaped thcncii by mistake, and they parted in wrath who, since tho day of noche trisU', never loved each other much, the end of it being that Sareeda rides for Mexico wit liin an hour to make what misc hief he can at the viceroy's court, and I think that you are well rid of him." ''Father," said my son to me, ''who Is that who looks so cruelly upon us?" "That is hoof whom I have told you, son, Do Garcia, who has been the curse of our race for two gem-rut inns, ho tray il your grandfather to the holy ollice aud murdered your grandmother, who put mo to torture, and whoso ill deeds are not done with yet. 1 Jo ware of him, son, now and over, I beseech you." Now we were como to the palace, almost the only house that was left Ftuiiding in the City of Pines.

Here an apart im-nt was given to us at tho end of the long building, and presently a command was brought to us that I and my wife should wait upon the Spanish Captain Diaz. So we went, though Otomie desired 1110 to stay lx hind, leaving our son alone in the chumlx-r where food had Ih-ch brought to him. I remember that I kissed him Ih-foro I loft, though I do not know wliut moved me to do so, unless it was becaiisn I thought that ho might bo asleep hen I returned. Tho Captain Diaz hud his quarters at tho other end of tho palace, somo 200 paces away. Presently wo stood before him.

He was a rough looking, thickset man well in years, with brltlit cjesand an holiest liko tho face of a jx-asaiil who lias toiled a lifetime in all weathers, only tho fields that Diaz tilled were Hi Ids of war, and his harvest had Ix-cu the lives of men. Just then ho was joking ith some common soldiers in a strain sran ly suited to nice cars, but so soon as he saw us ho ceased and came forward. I salub-d him, after tho Indian fashion, by touching tho earth with my hand, for what was 1 but an Indian captive? "Your sword," ho said briefly as ho scanned mo with his quick eyes. I unbuckled it from my side and handed tt him, saying in Spanish: "Take it, captain, for you have eon-qnrrcd; also li docs but como back Xi its owner." For this was tho same sword that I hml captured from one 1'h r-nal Diaz in tho fray of tho nucha trlsto. Mr.

By this time my friend, the captain of the Otomie, was at my side, and with him several men whom he could trust. Stooping down, with a few swift blows of a knife I cut the ropes which hound the Spaniards. Then we gathered ourselves into a knot, 12 of us or more, and in the center of the knot we set the five Spaniards.

This done, I drew my 6Word and cried: "The Teules storm the temple!" which was true, for already their long lino was rushing up the winding path. "The Teules storm the temple! I go to stop them," and straightway we sped across the open space. None saw us, or, if they saw us, none hindered us, for all the company were Intent aHn the consummation of a fresh sacrifice.

The women of the Otomie 'were no morel mie, rest softly in the houses of the sun, for of a surety they teach us how to die." "Aye," I answered, "but not thus. Lo, women do self murder! Our foes have swords for the hearts of men!" I turned to go, and before mc stood Otomie.

"What has befallen?" she said. "Where are my sisters? Oh, surely I havo dreamed an evil dream! I dreamed that the gods of my forefathers wore strong once more, and that once more they drunk the blood of men." 'Your ill dream has a worse awakening, Otomie, I answered. "Tho gods of hell are still strong indeed in this accursed land, and they have taken your sisters into their keeping." "Is it so?" she said softly. "Yet in my dream it seemed to me that this was their last strength ere they sink into death unending. Look yonder!" and she pointed toward the snowy crest of thovolcan Xaca.

I looked, but whether I saw the sight of which I am about to tell or whet her it was but an imagining born of tho horrors of that most hideous night in truth I cannot say. At the least I seemed to see this, and afterward there were some among tho Spaniards who sworo that they had witnessed it also. On Xaca's lofty summit now as always stood a pillar of fiery smoke, and, whilo I gazed, to my vision the smoke and the fire separated themselves. Out of the fire was fashioned a cross of flame that shone like lightning and stretched for many a rod across the heavens, its base resting on tho mountain top. At its foot rolled the clouds of smoke, and now these, tx, took forms vast and terrifying, such forms indued as those that sat in stone within the temple behind me, but magnified a hundrtxlfold.

"Sec," said Otomie again, "the cross of your God shines above the shajM'S of mine, the lost gods whom tonight I worshlpi-d, though not of my own will." Then she turned and went. For some few moments I stood very much afraid, gazing upon the vision on Xaca's snow; then suddenly tho rays of tho rising sun smote it, and it was gone.

The attacking Spaniards had already come to the farther side of the gap, for though we could not see them we could hear their cries of rage and despair as they halted helplessly and understood that their comrades were beyond their aid. "Now we are sped," said the Spaniard with whom I had spoken. "The road is gone, and it must be certain death to try the side of the pyramid." ''Not so," I answered.

"Some 60 feet below the path still runs, and one by one we will lower you to it with this rope." Then we set to work. Making the cord fast beneath the arms of a soldier, we let him down gently till ho came to the path and was received there by his comrades as a man returning from the dead. The last to be lowered was that Spaniard with whom I had spoken. "Farewell," he said, ''and may the blessing of God be on you for this act of mercy, renegade though' you are. Say, now, will you not conie.with met I set my life and honor in pledge for your safety.

You tell me that you are still a Christian man. Is that a place for Christians?" and he pointed upward. ''No, indeed," I answered, "but still I cannot come, for my wife and son are there, and I must return to die with them if need be. If you bear mo any gratitude, strive in return to save their lives, since for my own I care but little." "That I will," he said, and I let him down among his friends, whom he reached in safety. Now we returned to the temple, giving it out that the Spaniards were in retreat, having failed to cross the breach in the roadway.

Here before the temple the orgie still went on. But two Indians remained alive, and the priests of sacrifice grew weary. "Where are the Teules?" cried a voice. "Swift, strip them for the altar." But the Teules were gone, nor, search where they would, could they find them. "Their God has taken them beneath his wing," I said, speaking from the shadow and in a feigned voice.

"Huitzel cannot prevail before the God of the Teules. Then I slipped aside, so that none knew that it was I who had spoken, but the cry was caught up and echoed far and wide. "The God of the Christians has hidden them beneath his wing. Let us make merry with those whom he rejects," said the cry, and the last of the captives were dragged away. Now I thought that all was finished, but this was not so.

I have spoken of the secret purpose which I had read in the sullen eyes of the Indian women as they labored at the barricades, and I was about to see its execution. Madness still burned in the hearts of these women. They had accomplished their sacrifice, but their festival was still to come. They drew themselves away to the farther side of the pyramid, and heedless of the shots which now and again pierced the breast of one of them for here they were exposed to the Spanish fire remained awhile in preparation. With them went the priests of sacrifice, but now, as before, the rest of the men stood in sullen groups, watching what befell, but lifting no hand or voice to hinder its hellishness.

One woman did not go with them, and that woman was Otomie, my wife. She stood by the stone of sacrifice, a piteous sight to see, for her frenzy, or rather her madness, had outworn itself, and I It being Miss Ruth Maxey's ninth join her husband in Colorado.

Soon it came to tho knowledge of tho Spaniards that we had enough food and water upon the teocalll toenablo us to live there for a month or more, and seeing that there was no hope of capturing tho place by force of arms they called a parley with us. I went down to tho breach in tho roadway and spoke with their envoy, who stood upon the path below. At first the terms offered were that wo should surrender at discretion. To this I answered that sooner than do so we would die where wo were.

Their reply was that if we would give over all who had any part in the human sacrifice the rest of us might go free.
