AN INSANE TROOPER.
Recently, while wandering throwh an old
Aston mountain village in which disabled sol-
dlers were quartered immediately after the
overthrow of the heathen empire. I found
mug some buried camp accoutarments an
manuscript crumpled up with other papers
In a ha fared leather knapsack. My know -

explanation of it. probably written b the

than that of idle curiosity. lwill submit the

Yes, upon that I was rssolute—hernnst
die, but how.
Why did I crave his death? you ask.
Was be rich, and I poor? Was he noted
for bravery and valor, and I not? Was
thereback inSpain stander-hearted. soft

there was no object. In truth, I loved
him. Together we commanded a com-
pany of Cortes’ baud. Side by side we
fought the Mexicans, aid in dividing the
spoils and honor gained we quart-sled
only lest the other should receive too lit-
tle. No, my hate was hardly earthly.
It is true the Spaniard fights for little
cause, but not even he mnrdersfor so
little as did 1. He would, though—yes,
and you, too, could you either feel the
motives that impelled me. I? Yes, a
, but an exception, not only to
all Spaniards, but to all mankind.
You may call me mad. Perhaps I was

nature, wonderfully webbed as it was
by an abnormal mind, the motive to take
the life of a friend—he was a friend—
was more lrresistable to me than the
most urgent desire for revenge is to my
countrymen. Any court would convict

the sacrificial stone. Yes, thfi:
the look must appear.
The sacrificial stone —. in the bare
words even there was fascination for
me; around this legalized and sanctified
agent of slaughter my plot centered.
Theplan, briefly. was this: The Spanish
forces, in three divisions, were besieging
the City of Mexico. We made simulta-
neous attacks, each time approaching
nearer our goal, the chief temple in the
center of the, city. and after each as-
sault we withdrew to our respective
camps. Progress was slow: meats sur~

and each house was a fortification.

treat; each house must be razed. eao ‘
moat filled. These were orders and
were obeyed, because capture, we knew,
meant the sacrificial stone, our hearts a
symbolic food for pagan gods and our
bodies a material one for the religious
feast of cannibalism.
For tomorrow another attack was or-
dered—tho last one. we hoped. The same
injunctions for security being repeated.
we advanced. He, as usual, was at my
side. The first resistance of the'natives
was easily overcome. and we enteredthe
city. House after house was demolished.
The mass of Aztecs before us gave way
as of one accord and broke into retreat.
Tome. there was smoothing uncanny
about their actions. lf retreat at all, it
was promeditatml. But to our followers
it meant only tin» victory so long striven
and sufl'cml for.
My time had ('olltl'. The eagerness of
our followers. which I omnly cucour~

Worse yet, I had the bugle sounded and

his face, was that picture of the grave.
The ruse of the heathen succeeded.
Seeing our position apart from the
others, they turned and came exultingly
toward us. The deafening reverberation
of the gong in the temple, a sound of
woe to the Spaniards, sounded our death-
kncll. Then it was I saw that look. I
lost myself, and loaning back in my sad-
dle yelled to him in fiendish merrimont,
“The sacrificial stone!" He understood.
As my atrocity dawned upon him the
look vanished for one of hatred and fury.
He raised his sword. hissed something
like "Traitor!" and came at me.
ThoSpanianl is quick in anger, but
his stroke never fi-ll. A score of bored
arms of the suakiah color of copper on-
circlcd his body: another score bereft
him of the murderous weapon over
my head; a myriad more dragged him
from his horse. The some fate befall the

hideous by our knowledge of its nature.

We fell together, he underneath, upon

leeized the knife once more, though
with a weakened grasp, and leaned over
him with intent expectation, waiting so
intently for that look. Not happiness
alone now. but life itself was in the bal-
ance. Neither could be preserved unless
his tongue be silenced. Already the
Spaniards must be near the city, yet
even with exjmsuro so near I could not
kill him unless that look appear. That
which before wrecked my happiness I
now longed for to save my life. Would
that look never come?
I new board the Spaniards cute-ring
the city. They must not approach too

sounded to arouse the city by the priests
in time of peril. I would call the na-
tions to arms, and my countrymen would
be repulsed. I seized the huge hammer,
swun it over my head, and frantically
hurl it at the gong. It sounded for
miles. The banquet became as silent as
its lifeless victims in the caldrons, and
then a tumult louder than the previous
rovelry prevailed as the savages hurried-
ly sought for weapons. Now the Spun-

would not see me in crime. Further
than that. of my treason or of my fate
afterward, I had no thoughts.
The thundering of the conflict grew

stnpefled by drink, fell back and broke
into precipitate retreat. Mylast hope
was gone; the city was taken. The clash
of arms was in my cars. the conquerors
were at the temple, upon its stone steps.
Another instant they would reach us,
fludine free and him bound. In fear
