\ A Couple of Dons, j
[Copyright, IRK, by M. M. Cunningham.)
Don Artoro of old Mexico was no
don nt all- Uu was a entile stonier.
Don chunyn. IiIb neighbor, was a real
ilon anil a entile owuer. Don Artero
settled near l)<m C'huaya. He wasn't
a ilealralito neighbor, anil Hie govern?
ment whs naked lo reniovo lilin. The
govcmnivul 11tigere !. t'lv? hundred of
Den Chuiiyn's steers gel mixed up
with the oilier don's herds, nut) the
government wns asked lo fetid trodps.
I The government wns very * irry, mid
so forth, but ii had uoue t<> spare,
Dun ChUtiya ::t mice proceeded lo
bustle He called In ami united his
retainers to the number of fifty and
made n descent ou Mb, ether don with
the avowed object ?r capturing 1,000
of his {ilggcsl and fallest steers. The
other doii heard of the contemplated
mill, and there were mi ambush and n
I light, und the forces of Chunyn were'
I put to llight. Twelve of them went
killed and the others licked out of
. their boob*. When u true don has
j bucked up dgnlnsl the game and gut
the worst of It be reels ail bndly cut
' up as a hum!rod Uncle (tubes rolled
Into niie. He swells with Indignation.I
He gnashes his teeth In fury. He gctn
out nt the front door nod yells "Cumin
bn!" nt tho top of bis voice. Uc eun't
j let things go tint way. He Is bound
to get buck lit the other feller If it
takes his lust red In cash and his last
i drop nf blue blood.
Don Chunyn raised a hundred inch
this time. He "figured that a hundred
I ought tu lick twenty-live, but It so
happened that Ddii Artoro wan mono
enough to recruit Ids own force lo
seventy-live, and each one of them was
I worth three peons as lighters. When
! the forces came together the light dkl
not last leu minutes. Don Cbunyu'n
men were defeated.
The next raid was modo by Dun
Artoro, and he gobbled t.p a thousand
heul of cattle. From thence on fer
the next tWO years he bothered the life
OUt of the other IItill brought Ills proud
head low with shame ami humiliation.
He even made threats of storming lira
Chltuyil hacienda and putting all In
the sword, ami nt last the old man
with the while hair ami proud title
found himself under lihickmall. lie
had to pay so much a month to Ih> lot
alone.
These things were breaking Don
Chunya's heart }.\v.'?cii a red headed
Civil engineer belonging to the survey
corps of the Mexican Central load
came along one day and beard lbs
story. Ho fell sorry for the dun. Ho
had been driven off the lauds of the
' other with contumely, and he sighed
I for revenge. A civil engineer need
I hot have seen war to be able to see
a strategic situation. This engineer
saw one at the hacienda. He saw Just
where Don Artoro would attack and.
Just where he would meet with disas?
ter. There weren't a dozen peons on'
the ranch who would light, and some-'
thing besides lighting must lie resorted
to. Tho first tiling was to llml nut
what the don would do In case be rap
i lured Don Artoro and bis band.
Win a told that all would be killed he
sat down and had a tall; with the o|d
man. Four days later a hundred bl:;
boar traps arrived from Mexico thy.
The iieiir trap market wns tinner than
for yearn before. The peons dug up
a certain space of ground and planted
Hie traps, and then Dou Cbmiya sent
i word to Don Ariern Hint be was a
robber, a thief, a blow-hard and a cow?
ard. There who to lie no mote black?
mail. The big robber was Insulted,
sneered at nnd defied, lie was told
that if ho came within a tulle of the
hacienda he would be chawed to rngs.
You <"i!i wager that such a message
made the other's hair curl. IIa rend
the missive nnd then swore by the
beard of bis father' that ho would tear
out the adobe walls of the other's ens?
ile and eat his fried heart for lunch?
eon. He meant what he said, and the
horn w:. s sounded and the i1oj;h of
war unleashed. Ills band now nil 111
I bored thirty-live men, and on the very
I next morning they appeared In front
I of the hacienda, and Immediate and
unconditional surrender was demand?
ed. Don Chunyn appeared and hurled
vile epithets nt the robbers and dared
them to come on. The thing worked
just ns the red headed engineer sold
It would. After you have called a
Mexican cattle thief a coyote, a snake,
a f'kmit.-. a g mher and a cowanl he
nuuuTT T' T"* ''.' f*"!*1 "* ?SS
ter from a nearer standpoint. Don
Artero uttered a yell and led the
charge Only three or four rifles
blazed nt his gang. There was Just
rooni for the line to sweep across the
ground planted with l>o.ir traps, nnd
within a minute after the yell the Imps
were doing business. Snap, snap, went
their heavy Jaws, and yells and boots
of pdln and terror followed.
General Grant couldn't have done
belter In his palmiest days. Out of
the thirty live scoundrels all but three
were caught and held fast, and when
Dou Chunyn went out to Inspect thom
he found no ficht left In oven the
leader. The captives could not hnVe
Suffered more had they .received two
bullets apiece. The engineer had btlSl
. ness elsewhere for two or three days
after the tight. When h" returned for
Ills grant of laud ho found Don Chtiuya
In possession of Iba Ariern ranch and
Its host of cattle, and Hiero was no
one to dispute. He Impilrcd for tho
prisoners and wna told that ((ley had
gone on a Journey. When lie hud
rested n dny or two iho dou bandet)
him certain papers and checks and,
