THE YAQUI DEATH LINE By Barney MILLARD 3 : | TT TT Te TTT ET TR TTT “Uno!” “Dos!” It was {important that the two guards should keep each other awake. If the twelve Yaqui pris- oners were to be shot at sunrise, as el capitan had ordered, it was neces- sary that they should not escape from the corrugated iron ore-shed, the use of which, as a temporary prison, had been grudgingly granted by Mr. Tom Bird, the man in charge of the Sahuaripa Mine. One guard, in his muffling serape, leaned with infilnite languor upon his rifle at one end of the shed, and now and again vawningly bawled “Uno” through the still night; on which the other, to show that he was not asleep, called back “Dos!” {from the other end of the shed and the very borders of dreamland. Occasion- ally, the order of calling was re- versed. As for the Yaqui, they were quiet nough. . Now Mr. Tom Bird's window was thirty feet away from the nearest guard, whom he was execrating ve- hemently from under the covers. “Thank the gods, they'll be mov- ing on to-morrow!’ he breathed forth from amid a very orcamental set of curses incited by a particularly loud challenge. ‘It will be Sunday, and I can sleep all day.” He lay very quiet for half an hour, and was just dropping off, for the night wind had come up and the palms were whispering their mystic secrets. ‘“Une!’”’ sharp and shock produc- ing. “Dos!’’ quickly on its heels, with a ‘you don’t catch me napping’’ note. “That settles it!’’ gasped Bird. He got up, lit his law.p and a big, black cigar, and stood gazing into the night. Presently there came a quick spasmodic knock at the door. Of course, none of the mozos was awake, so Bird had to go see what it meant. When he opened the door, a Yaqui woman, with a three year old child in her arms, fluttered past him in her loose black gown and mantilla. He slammed and barred the door and strode after her into the patio. “Oh, senor!’ cried the woman, her high voice a-quiver, ‘mi nina—she is so—=so sick. I bring her to you to make her well again. Los Americanns they have the power. I carry her here from La Puerta—it is two miles. I have done all I can—every- thing. But the yerbas buenas de not help her, nor the rosary.” ‘Come in!” Bird took the tender little bundle from her arms, led the way into a side room, and deposited his unexepected and embarrassing charge upon the couch. ‘“The rosary. It was glass and very beautiful. I ground it, oh, so care- fully, put it in the taza sagrada which the good padre gave me last year, with a little water, and gave it all to the child. Porvida, there was not one drop left. She is a good nina—she swallowed it all.” ‘Ground glass!’ gasped Bird. ‘And she swallowed it all!” “It was enough to kill her,” sald Bird, in his own speech. ‘‘How the devil do children ever live to be twelve years old in this country. Let's see—Ilet’s see.”” He went to his own room and stood reflectively be- fore the medicine chest he had brought up from Mazatlan the sum- mer before. He read the labels: “Quinina? No good, Glicerina?"” He hesitated. ‘““Acete de Castor? That’s the stuff. It isn’t very fresh, but— > He grasped the bottle, and ran back to the bedside. The child took the medicine from his hand will- ingly. She was a good ninita, as la madre had said. Then, too, she had lapsed into a lassid, indifferent state. “No, senor. It was not the cal- entura. It was the agua mala. We come many miles—from San Este- ban, on the Rio Yaqui. The soldiers came for us. They took fifteen— among them—my husband, my child, and I. They put the women and chil- dren away from the men. They would send us on the long voy- age to Yucatan. But I escaped, with the ninita. It was one good senora who helped me. I come here. My husband—I do not know where he is. Perhaps the soldiers have killed him. They kill all—all but the wo- men and children. “From San Isteban,” thought Bird. ‘“‘That’s where that crowd in the ore-shed are from. Of course, her husband is there with them. And she doesn’t know he’s within forty miles of her. There’s tragedy. But this poor little nina—what can I do for her? The paln she’s in from that ground glass! Morphine? If I only dared.” He looked at the child. She seemed a little quieter. There was less of the rubbing of the clenched fists against the round little stomach. The palm leaves whispered outside. The 11ds of the tired eyes that had been staring 30 bard at the ceiling drooped drowsily. “Uno!” barked the first sentry. “Dos!” barked back the second guard. “Hang those chaps!’ muttered Biré to “if T could only stop their seaseless explosions. But its no ure, Think I'll Rave to use | symptom. ! one morphine. A very smell ‘injee tion in that littié arm, asd they eam baw! at each other all night” The morphine worked sc magi- cally that its results alarmed him fer a time. But the breathing was strong and regular, and there was no growing paleness nor other bad The travel worn mother fell nodding in her chair in spite of herself, and so Bird had the watch all to himself. He was glad of it, too. He wanted to smoke again. Smoking had become very essential to him down In this country, as it does to every man, white or brown. But it was not to be thought of now. He fixed a shade on the lamp, fanned the gnats away from the child, and after the guards had called again and again to each other, sometirnes awful weight of sleepiness in their tones, and as the roosters shrilled from a corner in the corral and the quick dawn of the tropics began to spread its rose burst over the palms, there was a bustle about the ore- house. “Pretty near sunrise. Guess they're getting ready to lead those pcor devils out.” The woman was awake now, look- ing at the child, and he left it in her charge while he went out to wash and get a cup of coffee. He was gone longer tHan he thought. When he returned the child was alone and a frenzied woman was flying toward the place of execution. “God!” groaned Bird. “And 1 could have saved her this. Poor, wretched, tortured soul! Soul? Of course, she’s got a soul, just as much of a soul as el presidente him- self, who is ordering all this butch- ery, or his wife, or anybody. And I can’t—I simply can’t look out there and see this thing done.” But he did, just the same. He saw the clam-faced Yaquis in their poor, gray cotton clothing, bare feet, and old straw sombreros, their arms tied behind them, standing in the death line. He saw the soldiers in their dirty duck suits, with their absurd little caps on heir heads, fasten the cheap gaudy bandanas over the faces of the doomed men. All but one face was covered. It was a quiet brown face, with eyes that looked straight to- ward the firing squad, now resting on its rifles. The woman had run a little way toward the man with the uncovered face—he stood at the end of the line—and stopped there looking toward him appealingly. Once she put her hand to her fore- head, but she did not venture to call aloud to him, nor even to wave her hand. If he saw her he made no sign. ‘““And that's the father of the nina. He's a brave father, little girl,” he sald to the sleeping child— “a brave father to meet death with clear eyes. I suppose he sees la ma- dre, but he won't look at her for fear he’il flinch.” The firing squad was moving back to its place. “What can I do? What can I do? groaned Bird. “I might speak to the captain and have the thing post- poned, even for a day or two. But after all, he wouldn’t listen to any Gringo interference. . Useless!’ As the men leveled their rifles he saw the woman move forward, and just before the word was given she flung herself toward her husband and between him and the squad. There was a breath-cutting racket of shots, the smoke puffs cleared away in- stantly, and there, With their arms and legs sprawled any way, lay the line of men who had faced the squad a moment before, and, a little nearer the breeze ruffling her cheap, thin skirt, lay la madre Bird leaned over the child’s couch reverently and touched his lips to the brown Httle forehead. Before he could straighten up two salt tears fell upon her pillow. “I'm not much in the father line,” said he, “but I guess— Well, nina, cara, you shan’t miss anything that Tom Bird can do for you.” He walked over to the firing ground and stared at the dead Yaquis. How flat they lay, in their inert, flaccid state against’/the gray earth. It was as if Nature were drawing her children back to her great bosom to hide them away for- ever. Bird looked at the straw som- brero lying under the head of la nina’s father, and glanced down, over the slim form of the poor, bare feet, the soles of which were hard- ened by many a weary tramp over the desert. He begged the two bodies from the captain, and had them buried very decently in one grave, with a coyote-proof pile of stones upon it and acop of the pile a little wooden Cross. He was planning for the nina, and wondering how his bride of the com- ing October would take the idea of having a three year old Yaqui in the family. Ah, well, when that little brown hand should reach up for Dorothy’s, it would be sure to'catch at her heart. ‘‘She won’t be as much worried about that as she will be about lots of other things—the heat and the gnats and the centipedes and all that,” he thought. “What a country it is for a white woman to live in! What a cruel country!” The palms rustled quietly while he looked down at the nina, who had curled one little arm under her head while her long black lashes lay upon her cheek. “Or a brown one, either, for that matter,” he added. *Uno)” “Dos!” The bicycle Doom is so big in England that the ries eannot keep pace with the demands.
