The Joy of the Banquet
t- By Charles Flealag Kmhree. $
WHEN the mule car line was in
augurated in the state capital
inir bands playing different tunes
gathered in front of the treasurer'i
house on Netahualcoyotl street.
Three of these were Indian ntrgrcRa-
tions. The puffer looked like ani

where the people live in thatched

round like siiL'ar l.owls A lawyer
with a dirty collar got up in n win
dow opposite the treasurer's house
and addressed the populace, rasping
out adulations of the great Senor
Ortiz, treasurer of the state, whose
untiring industry had dragged prog
ress and civilization on to the point
of tramways,
.lii-i then si secondhand ears (re
paint, d and maue handsome) came
hurtling out of the barm a block be
yond, charged down the street, all
covered with green, white anil red
bunting, the mules trying to run
straight away from the track. The
crowd gave forth "ias" indolently.
Cenobio, Senor Ortiz' pet servant, n
lad of IT. stood up In the door and
wriin' his body and shrieked "Viva!"

A dark, yet plnKlsn, oval lace, trained
thus so modestly by the reliozo, shone
out upon Cenobio. Large, soft, brown
eyes, with a timid expression involv
ing that mysterious Aztec sadness,
beamed on after him.
Having come to a tile-covered shed
In n bare lot, Cenobio said, speaking
with profound sincerity: "Concha, I
want to drive a mule car."
Concha marked in the dirt wlfh her
toe.

raising fond
eyes to him,
"Well, Concha, Conchlta.

Don Mariano Ortiz' favorite servant.
I will marry you if you get him to
let me drive one of his mule cars. Ah.
to crack the whip and blow the
horn!"
"And leave me!" cried she, with a
sudden spasm of grief, clasping her
hands.
"No; to return nights," said he.
"And if I slice eded, you would
you would then really--marry me!"
"Immediately."
"Then I shall try. To-night they
have the ball in honor of these muls
ears. To-morrow Don Mariano gives
his banquet to the government here.
Don Mariano and Dona Maria have
aunrreled bitterly over the mole de
gunjolote. The nina says the banquet
i shall be new. a la Americana, without
this Indian dish of turkey. Hut the
senor wants mole. Well. I shall make
it, anyhow. I myself shall carry it
1 In and set it before him. Then he
will give vou a mule car."
"Concha!"
He caught her hand In
blind enthusiasm.
Don Mariano had withdrawn into the
presence of his wife. She stood in a
large bedroom whose brick floor a red
: and h'.ue carpet concealed. The canvas
ceiling, decorated to match the painted
- walls, heaved gently up and down in
answer to a breeze which filtered
through unseen tiles above. A huge
painting Of Porflrlo Diaz hung between
windows. A brass imported bedstead,
draped, was even less beautiful than
the counterpane of pink silk, Chairs of
i black Austrian bent wood impeded the
somewhat boorish progress of the
treasurer. He halted in the room's
middle, his arms half buried in trousers
J pockets, his round bend lowered pugna
j ciously, "What, in the name of the
saints, is that?" growkd he, burning
the lady with his eye.
Dona Maria was nlmost a pure In
dian, yet the slight strain of foreign
blood had been enough to modify her
colof. Her brond face was a grayish.

U, chalky, without a txtt.;c of ituik.
Only at the roots of her hair did the
Indian brown begin. She hud a very
heavy jaw. an immovable eye. fat cheeks
and a delicate mustache. She was Tm
perial in carriage. "The dress I shall
wear to the ball," said she, with htt
miliating deliberation. She was hold
ing the light blue tiling up.
"That!" rasped he. "Oh, woman)
Tour black skin will never go with this.
Light hlue! Look at yourself in the
glass. Hold this infernal thing up with
you. See! A Guanajuato mummy is
tasty beside you!"
They say that Dona Maria used to lie
a charcoal woman before she became
exalted, ittit she rilled the ruler.
"Your ideas of beauty," she said, with
crushing calm, "are not for me."
"You shall not! Will this woman
hang ever round my neck, nor progress
with me? The state bows before me.
1'ortirio Diaz believes in me. And can
my wife exhibit no dignity ? I till, von.
you are hideous in that light blue."
"Retire, Mariano," replied she. her
ample bust swelling; "nor cut these

My dignity is stamped on. h, the
devil!
By eight of the evening his mood was
black. An all-day beating against thai
rock, his wife, had rent his hist nerve,
lie was morose, mean. At ti n min
utes to nine she swept into his presence,
surely ma jestic enough, and making a
tremendous display of light blue. Don
Mariano gritted his teeth as he handed
her in lit the carriage. They drove
Rwny, leaving in the corridor a trem
bling maiden, who turned and fluttered
to Cenobio and cried: "To-morrow!
And the good Mary will hi lp me!"
The dance was at the American hotel.
The ballroom was gorgeous In green,
white and red bunting. A loti" row of
pretty venoritas sat on one siV of the
room, the young men not approaching
them freely. An orchestra struck up
a tune and the ball began. The light
blue dress floated every w here. Like nit
empress she carried it. It was very
ugly. She danced with the governor
(governor by the grace of Senor Ortiz),
who looked bored, and carried one hand
In his trousers pocket. She danced wit Ii
a dashing young federal senator (sen
ator by t he grace of Ortiz), w ho wore a
brown sack coat. She danced with the
weazened, tiny old secretary of state,
w ho moved in a blear-eyed dream. Oc
casionally she danced with Don Mari
ano, anil looked fixedly over his head.
And during those dances Don Mariano
could be heard muttering more nnd
more weakly. For t he light blue seemed
to till the room. Her chalky head above
watched the dances grlmlv, and his
eye could not tear itself away from
the wounding tower of blue. People
whispered that the sultan was ill.
They longed for his merry laugh.
During one Interval they saw him
drain nfT three bottles of 1 r In pain
ful solitude. It was recalled that
many glasses of cognac, as other
liquors, had gone the same way. He
refused the next dance. The old,
wheezy secretary came mumbling.
"Oh, now. what's the trouble with
him?" said he. with a grandmother's
insinuating fondness.
"What's what's matter with the
lights?" asked Don Mariano.
"Nothing!" cried the secretary,

At two O'clock thpV removed Don
Mariano to his carriage, and heard
him murmuring: "Where'sh
where'sh ma dignity? Sh'gone!"
The next morning Concha, the Ma
donna like, kept from under the eye
of Dona Maria. In the kitchen's far
thest corner, behind a horseshoe
eune of adobe braseros burning blue
with charcoal, she labored. On a
! stone nictate she ground separately
the following articles: Twelve ounces
of black, dried peppers, or chiles; four
ounces of red, dried chiles; one small
cupful of aesame aeed; 14 chocolate
beans; a half ne of almoada; one
cent's worth f MaeSt per par; one-half
cent's worth of cloves; a stick of cin
namon; fair measure of ajasseral kinds
of nuts; a few tomatoes; such quan
tity of nnise seed as may be taken up
with five fingers; such quantity of co
riander seed as may lu- taken up with
three fingers; two or three small,
hard loaves of bread; goodly portions

things had been separately fried be
fore grinding. The process completed,
the mixing took place. Large quanti
ties of melted lard, with water, served
to lend to the whole a liquid luxuri
ance, an unctuous consistency. The
turkey himself, could be have seen
that fatty and rich mass, must have
died in peace. Cooked to a turn and
garnished nay swamped in that
thick substance he was lost to the
eye of man, only to be fished up amid
oozing marshes of brown that glis
tened. Dona Maria's deepest white dish
(.with dead Maximilian's monogram
upon it, for his crockery goes sifting
down among the scattered years of
the republic) was the mole's vehicle.
Let the reader picture it filled with a
trembling, reddish-brown liquid, thick
with unthinkable and opaque won
ders; the pure melted lard glittering,
suspended in ecstasy upon the sur
face; ravishing hint of a breast of
juajolote, a thigh, a head, sunk in
- 'Mt magnificent jjblon.
Cenobio, hungry-eyed, dressed in
' spotless loose white, with a sash of
: green, came and leaned for support
' against the wall and saw his fate,
hanging at first upon the deftness of
Concha's fingers, immersed at laht,
an ultimate ingredient.
"You will you will marry me if I
succeed " cried she.
"Concha," sighed he, "I swear I
would marry cv.n this old Indian
Jhief cr. k."
The Indian chief cook was a stren
uous, huge and bony party, who wore
a white loth Wrapped round her legs
instead of n skirt.
When the guests arrived Senora
1 Ortiz floated forth to greet them.
Her lord was stricken dumb. Behold,
she wore the blue! A dread crunch
ing of teeth was distinctly heard by
t lie federal senator.
The dinner was served. Porlirio
Diaz' portrait had been transferred to
the dining-room. The walls were
draped with Mexican flags. The mum
bling secretary's wife was good and
quiet, like a pussy. The federal sen
ator dashed in with his equally dash
ing lady. The governor Stalked to his
chair, scanning the viands narrowly.
His wife, a little pallid woman in
white satin, seemed tired of all the
earth. At the table's head, with his
wife at his right, sat Senor Ortiz,
black, savage. He surveyed the board.
He watched the waitresses come and
go. No mole. And his Mexican stom
ach craved mole. He could not get
that aw ful blue out of his eyes. Tin y
talked to him; he mumbled boorish
answers. They toasted Senor Ortiz,
the governor. Porflrlo Diaz (familiar
ly failed Don Porflrlo by the grace
of whom they lived and had their be
ing). Hut Don Mariano replied, snap
, pishly. And all the while the stately
Indian, his civilized wife, wore more
dignity than three government's
wives would have needed. The eter
nal placidity of the Aztec nation, with
its slumbering under-flre, looked out
upon the company.

Then the moment came. Cenobio

seemed to have gone awny from her
face, leaving only t he dancing pink that

saw a vision of a little home, a flying

look on Cenobio. lie answered it with

The banquet terminated early.
Later, the tragedy of the spirit was
i rehearsed in the rear court. Cenobio
strode there like a villain in n play.
Concha, colorless, came stumbling out.
Hi t eves of terror fell upon him. Tin :i
she moaned : "No mule ear. no Cenobio.
no baby!" And she fell down and
, sobbed.
"Cenobio! Ven aca!" Itwasthesul

Cenobio bounded forward and dts- j

'bedroom, nnd the youth observed a
gleam in the orbs of Don Mariano.
"Take it out!" cried the sultan, point.
ing to the thing upon the floor.
Dona Maria sat bolt upright in a
chair, dressed in a petticoat and stitT

j mole running down her neck. Would
' that he who rends could know the stain

parrying a shovel.
Don Mariano, perspiring, dug a hole,
i The mozo buried the blue. Sunk on the
ground by the tile-roofed shed sat
j Concha, scarce daring to look at that
'interment. The treasurer turned to
j her, and she shrnuk.
"H'm Concha Conchita," said he,
! gently, wheedlingly, rubbing his hands
together; "name it, Conchita."
"Oh, what ?" sobbed she, staring up.
Don Mariano was laughing with a
mi.d, continuous, endearing laugh.
"Your reward," wheedled he, "Any
thing; anything."
A flicker of understanding lit up her
brain. She leaped to her feet with out-
stretched arms and cried, hysterically:
I "A mule car for Cenobio to drive!"
"Done, Conchita," snickered the sul
tan, and went away.
When I last saw Conchita she was
icated at the door of a little adobe hut
in the suburbs, gazing out sweetly,
rapt, liefore her eyes dashed on the
clattering car, whose mules leaped w ith
