Tr.s Sfa^ish Way.
BY DON CLARK WILSON.
(Copyright, 1902. by Dally Story Pub. Co.)
It was remarked at the officers’
mess In th Exposition barracks that
young Lieut. Fogarty was caught in
the meshes of the senorita's .uscina
tions, and that if he was not watch
ful of his sentiment he would some
day turn traitor to his country for her
sake, like the notorious Howard, d
fight against Uncle Sam in the in
surreeto army. But Fogarty, who once
or twice overheard talk of tms kind,
smiled loftily and treated his little
urtation with the senorita as a trivial
affair, a matter of jest, the diversion
of a gentleman—and continued the
flirtation.
On the Luneta, one night, when the
Sixth artillery band was giving an
open air concert, his eye was caught
by a dark-eyed, voluptuous Spanish
beauty in an open Stanhope, and he
never rested until he had formed her
acquaintance. Now, this was a most
difficult matter to accomplish, for
Spanish old "•orld ideas of propriety
and all that had to be circumvented,
the haughty old padre and madre of
the girl had to be reconciled to his
advances, and the girl’s inborn preju
dice against anything and everything
American had to be overcome. Then
t-iere was also an absurd fellow
named Loretto Cervillo, an ex-officer
of the defeated Spanish army, who
claimed the senorita as his affianced.
Senorita Lola did not evince any
erpecial affection for him; she did not
give way to those bursts of Spanish
passion ho had road of so often in
fiction; and It struck coldly on his ar
dor at times to tnlnk that possibly she
was trifling with him, and that her
acceptance of his attentions was
prompted merely and solely from a
love of diversion and excitement.
One night the lieutenant left the
Reserve hospital on Calle Las Vegas,
and jumping into a passing caromet
ta, drove to the Teatro Libertad,
where he had an appointment with
her.
At the entrance he pai s-cd and cast
his eyes over the audience. It was a
gay scene, gorgeously colored, with
laughing groups at the tables and in
the boxes; a gathering of Snanirrds,
civilians and ex-soluiers, of Amei.can
officers and dark-eyed damsels here
and there, of elite Filipino mestezzos
and their escorts, of American boI
dters in spotted khaki and limp gray
hats. Lieut. Fogarty paid scant
attention to all this, however; his eye
anxiously sought for the pretty face
of Lola, and at last ho found her.
Found her seated at a table in a re
mote corner near some curtains, chat
lng gaily with a dark-browed lout in
sweeping panama and white duck,
who sipped idly at a slendor glass of
t emerald liquor, and seemed wholly
sour and unapproachable and dis
agreeable. Lola kept up a running
fire of vivacious talk, and seemed en
tranced the more as his ill-humor in
creased; and as Fogarty, himself
Bcowllng blackly, quickly approached
and sat opposite her, she greeted him
with a delicious little bubble of laugh
ter and said:
“Noches, senor teniente! I was ex
pecting you. See—Cervillo—dear old
Cervillo!”—impulsively kissing him,
to Fogarty’s unutterable displeasure—
“Is so delightfully angry! Carrejo, it
Is exciting!—two *j\gry soldiers!”
Cervillo scowled back hatred at Fo
garty. Fofhfty snilt'ed sarcastically
at Cervillo; and Lola laughed In a
burst of enchantment.
"Senors,” she said, “it is beautiful!
Teniente,” to Fogarty, "will you
drink?"
She poured out a glass of absinthe,
then tossed the lieutenant a pack of
native cigarillos, and herself lighted
one, which she smoked with exquisite
grace and abandon.
Cervillo turned slightly away, puff
ing sulkily at a cigarette, and glared
savagely at the dancer on the stage,
as though the sight of Fogarty was
Intolerable.
“D-n Cervillo!” growled Fogar
ty, heartily. "Lola, let us ride.”
“Ride, teniente?" she echoed;
Hls eye was caught by a dark-eyed
Spanish beauty.
“ride? No, do! It is too delightful
here! The lights, the dancers, the
music—Paloma, it is divine! Seel it
is Esmeralda who dances now! Es
meralda, who might be the Egyptian
of Notre Dame. See how she sways!
■flee how lightly she floats on those
tiny toes! Ride senor? No, no!”
"Let us walk along the shore, then,’
persisted Fogarty, coaxingly. “Any
thing, senorita, to escape this close
den! ”
She pouted dissentingly.
"Senor, do not spoil it. You Assart
I---j
can* aie so prosaic! I.o'j':. Ctrvi'lo
enjoys it. He is happy. Why not
you?"
Fogarty sulkily puffed at tun cigar
illo, and stared Into the gossiping
crowd. After a silence Fo; r.rty tossed
his cigarillo avruy impatiently, look
.e senorita's hand In his. a -d said:
“It is unjust of you. scrorita - It i3
cruel. Why do you persistently tor
ment me? Why—”
“Torment you?” The lilt is vixen u
mouth dropped in surprls . hut there
was a twinkle in her eye that did not
escape the lieutenant. “I would not
knowingly—cosa! Esmeralda is gone,
and now watch, teniento. It is the
Juggler Mezziola who comes next He
Is a marvelous man, so adroit!”
But what did Fogarty care icr
the stage when this enchanting miss
sat before him? There was nothing
offered the public from the prosceni
um to compare with what Fogarty
now watched In silence, his heart
burning with love. For a moment he
forgot the place, the crowd, the jug
gler, the music—and Ccrvlllo. His
head swam, hlB senses whirled hazily
as one bereft of reason. Tn an ecstacy
he squeezed her hand, lie bent for
ward, breathing heavily, and before
he was fully aware of what he was
doing, and before the senorita could
isr®
Cervillo faced him, his fierce mus
tache bristling savagely,
avoid his passionate attack, he kissed
her, then sprang Instinctively to bis
feet.
Cervillo faced him, his black face'
growing blacker, his fierce mustache
bristling savagely.
“Senor,” he said, In Imperfect Eng
lish, “It es the insult! It es the out
rage!”
Fogarty was consrlous that many
eyes were rivet 1 on him, that the
juggler on the stage was staring at
him In amazement, that his own su
perior officers were levelling their
glasses at him from the boxes and the
foyer.
“Well?” he said, coolly, as he faced
the angry Spaniard. “What are you
going to do about It?”
“Senor will apologize,” declared the
other, hotly. "In one meenut—only
one meenut I will gif you! Sabe? One
meenut!”
“And if I don’t apologize, what
then?”
“One or udder mils’ die!” returned
CerviUo, In a low, tense tone. “You
or me! I care not vich!”
Fogarty looked at the senorita. A
strange light shone in her eyes. He
Interpreted It as a challenge.
“I refuse, senor,’ he said; and In a
thrice a glove was thrown in his face,
he felt a stinging slap on his cheek,
and a voice hissed In his ear:
“Den, you know what dis means,
asso!”
He did. But he chose his own way
of answering the challenge. His im
patience could brook no delay in seek
ing satisfaction. He knocked the
Spaniard to the floor with one quick,
straight blow, then sprang back,
breathing heavily.
That was the American way.
In the confusion that followed Fo
garty quickly took the senoritas arm,
and urged her Into a qullez.
The cochero drove across the Punta
Espana, down a devious road to the
aged portcullis under the wall, and
then plunged into the narrow, ill
paved, foul-smelling streets of dark
er Manila. After an Interminable
ride through this bewildering tangle
ue finally pulled up before the door of
a somber building In the verj heart of
tne old city, and In response to his
“Aci, senor,” the senorita, with a gay
burst of laughter, leaped out.
“Buenos noches, teniente!” she said
to the officer within. "Buenos no
ches!” and disappeared Into the
house. A ripple of laughter that did
not sound exactly mirthful to the co
chero Heated back on the dense, close
air as she swung the ponderous old
door behind her.
The driver waited patiently for sev
eral moments. The officer In the cab
said nothing, gave no directions, or
in fact manifested any interest what
soever iu the proceedings. The co
chero confidently awaited the choice
cusswcrd and the Impatient “Pron
to!” he was so accustomed to hear
from his American faros. But it came
not, and the cochero sagely conclud
ed his fare was drunk. “Americano
mucho loco,” he mused. “Senor ten
iente!” he said softly, as he dis
mounted and looked Into the caromet
ta at the officer. “Donde bamos?”
There was no reply. The officer
didn’t stir.
The cochero repeated his inquiry,
then looked closer, squinted know
ingly, like a sage old fellow, and
smiled a sly, slick little smile.
The officer was pinned In his place,
a dainty poniard through his chest.
That was the Spanish way.
Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core of the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full of fat.
Scott’s Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone
marrow and the spleen with
the richest of all fats, the pure
cod liver oil.
For pale school girls and
invalids and for all whose
blood is thin and pale, Scott’s
Emulsion is a pleasant and rich
blood food. It not only feeds
the blood-making organs but
gives them strength to do
their proper work.
