CHAPTER L
Derwent sat down on a stone bench
and looked about him with a sense of
satisfaction akin to delight. And it was
indeed a delightful place into which he
had wandered— a place of broad ave
nues, shaded by immense trees, dividing
pieaeances full of the most enchanting
greenness, where feathery shrubs and
bauks- of emerald sward, hedges of ge
ranium anil rose, and masses of Nile
lilies, with wide green leaves and white,
golden hearted chalices of bloom, were
all sparkling with diamond drops from
the water lately anil lavishly showered
upon them. The avenues, clean swept
as a palace floor, were also damp from
the spray that had fallen over them,
and their leaf shaded vistas led from all
directions to circular spaces, where foun
tains played in the midst of great basins,
or groups of statuary stood on pedestals
of green grass sown with daisies. Over
head was a sky of sapphire, cloudless
and exquisite, from which the son poured
golden light, but with the light no heat—
only such balmy warmth as may have
reigned in the garden of Paradise; while
the atmosphere was crisp, clear, stimu
lating. anil full of a charm as impossible
to describe as the aroma of a rose.
The young man who found himself for
the first time in this lovely garden—the
Alameda of the City of Mexico—had
seen all of the world’s most famous
pleasure grounds; but he said to himself,
as he lay back in bis shade arched seat,
that there was something here which
pleased the eye and the fancy, wakened
the imagination, and charmed the senses
to a degree that no spot which he had
ever seen could surpass For the spell
w;is the spell of Mexico her: -If—Mexico,
with her shadowy history of past em
pires and vanished races, her traditions
of ancient splendor, her marvelous con
quest, her picturesque people, and her
aspect of Europe, the orient and the
New World blended in a whole of ro-
“ir/mt a beautiful unman!” he said
“ IF ho in shet”
mantic interest and wonderful beauty.
Something of all this seemed to Derwent
expressed in )he scene before him, in the
tropical loveliness of the beautiful pleas
ure ground and in the Old World grace
and solidity of every object fashioned by
the hand of man From the stone bench
on which he sat, with its high back and
sculptured ends, that might have been
taken from a classic picture, to the noble
towers of the two great churches that
look at each other across the Plaznela
Morelos and of which he had a glimpse
through one of the leafy avenues, all
was suggestive of Europe in the days
when craftsmen were .artists, when men
wrought with a beauty and a skill that
the world of today can only feebly copy,
and buildeil not only for themselves but
for the generations tha*. were to follow
them. Yet to fancy himself even for a
moment in a European city was impos
sible. If the Spaniard planted deep in
the land of the Aztec tiia art, his laws,
his language and his faith, he left —un-
like other conquerors of whom we know
the race to whom God had given it,
and today in the city of Cortez the
young stranger had seen Aztec faces fill
ing the churches, the streets and the
market places, and forms so purely In
dian that they might have met the con
quistadores passing down the beautiful
avenues and loitering around the shaded
fountains of the Alameda.
There was to him so much iuterest in
the striking contrasts of the scene—in
the close juxtaposition of a brilliant
civilization with the most primitive
types of human life—that he let his
thoughts wander far back into the his
tory of this fasemati .g laud, while a
succession of lif. erect figures came down
the shaded vis as, passed around the
great basin of the fountain tffiit occupied
the center of the circle where he sat and
disappeared in someone of the radiating
walks. Now it was a young man who
Hooked as if he might have stepped from
the pavement of Pall Mall, then a
sandaled peon in wide cotton trousers,
gayly striped blanket and straw som
brero; next a gentleman with Spanish
dignity in every line of face and figure;
reseutly a group of Mexican ladies,
-liken clad, lace draped, on their way to
mass, with ivory prayer books and silver
-osaries in their hand.;; a dark faced
woman with a baby wrapped in the.close
olds of her blue scarf passed, followed
\ a pair of prettily dressed American
t English girls, Vrith the sunlight gleani
ng vu their golden hair, a group of
oung ('.fil e's with clanking swords
ua.de wii.i their uniforms a bright effect
f color; and a band of lovely children,
trended by their Indian nurses, paused
vaere a vender of dnlees had erected his
ami and broke into a chatter of sweet
Spanish sounds.
This constantly varying procession
had been perg ou for some time, when
a tall, oroad shouldered young man,
1 * Ith an aspect Unmistakably American,
JACKSON, GEORGIA, TUESDAY, NOV. 24. 1891.
advanced in a 1 eistare! y manner down
one of the avenues, caught sight of the
quiet figure in the flickering shadow,
and quickened his pace as he approach
ed it.
“Well met, Derwentr he said. “1
was on my way to the Iturbide to look
you ap. Bnt I see yon have found your
way to the right place; only yon are
rather early." He glanced at his watch
as he sat down. “Eleven o’clock; not so
early as I thought. It will not be long
now before all the world will be here.”.
“A good deal pf the world seems to be
here at present,” said Derwent. “I have
been watching for some time the re
markably varied charaeter of the people
passing.” ■ S " ■
“Oh, that can be seen at any time,"
answered fche other! “Rut Sunday morn
ing after mass the fashionable world has
a dress parade in the Alameda. Every
body in everybody
who is anybody—comes here, undtt is.a
very brilliant scene for an hour or two:
There goes the first sign of it.” .
He indicated an Indian, Who trotted
by with a dozen or two chairs skilfftrßy
bound together and arranged in a pyra
mid on his back. These he conveyed, io
the chief avenue leading from San Fran
cisco street into the heart of the park,
where a woman removed them from, his
back and placed them in a line ,on the
side of the avenue, putting a narrow
strip of carpet before them. Others
were engaged in the same manner on
the opposite Bide; and soon two rows of
chairs faced each other along the length
of the beautiful shaded way.
“For dos reales, you can have your
choice of those,” said the newcomer,
“and find yourself in the society of the
elite of Mexico, who naturally prefer
paying for their seats to using those
which the municipality provides. More
over, everybody who enters the park
comes in by that avenue; so that one has
an admirable opportunity for observing
and criticising all one’s acquaintances.”
“But how if one has none?” said Der
went. “That would lessen the amuse
ment. I prefer my present position be
cause it commands a number of different
avenues, and 1 suppose that the most 01 .
those who come here will walk about,
else there would be no object in sitting
down to look at them.”
The other laughed. “You are right,”
he said. “Everybody walks, for a time,
at least. Here comes the music; the
people will soon follow.” £ ,. Yf
A group of men in uniform, carrying
large brass instruments, passed by and
mounted in single file the flight of steps
leading to one of the picturesque mnsio..
pavilions erected in different parts of ths
park. Derwent followed them with, his
gaze, observing how well the gold braid
with which they were profusely deco
rated gleamed through the green foliage
that surrounded the stand. >. .•
“Can you tell me how it is, Morell,”,
he said, half absently, “that these peo
ple have such an artistic genius, and
know just how to give a touch of color
and grace to everything they do??
“If you are in the line of conundrums,”
replied Morell, “I can give you a better
one than that. How is it that these peo
ple are so infernally slow in all their
transactions that a man who comes here
to do any kind of business most pass ,the
best part of his time in waiting on tijrif
procrastination? By Jove! I sometimes ,
think that 1 will throw up everything
and leave the country!”
The other looked at him inquiringly.
“What is the matter?” he asked. , “Has,
anything annoying occurred?” He knew
that the outburst had not been
a purpose. ,
Morell, who was rolling a cigarette,
did not answer until he had placed it be
tween his lips, lighted it behind thp flap
of the little box of wax tapers whifib
every Mexican carries, and returned,
box to his pocket. Then he said,. “1 have,
had letters this morning, and there (s
trouble about that mine.”
“What! the one you have offered m©T
“The same. The man who offered
to ine, and assured me that he had it fn
his hand, so to speak, now writes that
there is trouble with the owners. They
are wrangling among themselves; some
don’t want to 6ell at all: and so the mat
ter stands.”
“Indeed!” said Derwent. He was a
little surprised, bat quite cool. Partly
by temperament, partly by cultivation
of habit, he had an imperturbable self
possession which seldom failed and often
served him in situations where other men
tost control of themselves and conse
quently of events. “In that case,” he
said, quietly, “1 had better think no
more about it and take up something
else.”
)■ “It is the best thing of tgrhich I know,"
i said Morell, “and 1 don't anticipate fail
ure in getting it, bnt it is the way of the
people to make such obstacles and de-r
lays. Fernandez says that the matter
| will come right, but" that we must have
| patience and use a little diplomacy. Con
found them! 1 should like to use some
i thing much more forcible!”
Derwent did not reply immediately.
. He suspected that a little diplomacy was
j being used for his benefit, although
Morell’s irritation certainly seemed al
. together But he did aot com
mit himself to any expression of such a
suspicion. Time would show, he thought,
how the matter stood, and meanwhile he
i would bear himself cautiously. A burst
i of music from the band near by
1 the air at this moment and made a me- -
1 odious accompaniment to his thoughts.
Presently he said, with the same quiet
ness;
“And for how long a time will this
patience and diplomacy be required!*
Morell shrugged his shoulders. “Who
can say?” he answered. “There is no
good in trying to force things with these
people. They do not understand prompt
ness in business, and when you try to
press matters they take yonr haste for
anxiety, and either double their price or
hold back all the more. The diplomacy
required is a policy of apparent indiffer
ence. Fernandez says that he will leave
them severely alone for a time, and be
believes that those who want to sell will
make the others come to terms."
“Bnt anything so indefinite as that
does not suit me at all,” said Derwent.
“When I. came here cm your representa
tion I thought that you had property
which you could put into my hands at
once. If you have not, I must seek
what I desire elsewhere. ”
“My dear fellow, you are like all
Americans when they come into this
country; you expect to be able to do
business as it is done in the states. Bnt
the first lesson to be learned is that this
is imposribla You most be patient if
you wish to accompli h anything.”
“Patienoe is a virtu* in which 1 have
never found myself deficient—when it
was required," said Derwent calmly;
“but there are times, as we all know,
when it ceases to be a virtue. And one
of these times is sorely when people
who own property do hot want to sell it.’’
“But thb fools do want to sell,” re
plied Morell, growing a little excited in
manner. “It is Only their way of secur
ing.ifpossible, a higher prioe."
“Be kind enough,.- then, to let them
know, through your friend Senor Fer
nandez, that I have to intention of pay
ing more than we have already agreed
npon for that mine. If I find it all that
.it has been represented, I will give twen
ty thousand dollas* for it—not a centavo
more.”
w ‘TVis really worth a great deal more,
you know,” said Mor 11, in a confidential
tone. ri '*
“I take it for granted that it is, and 1
hope to make much more out of it,” re
turned the other coolly. “But that has
been their price, and it is the largest
amount that lam able to give. If they
do not take it I must, as I have said, look
elsewhere for an investment. You can
surely make this plain enough for even a
Mexican to understand. And I shall be
glad to know as soon as possible if it is
worth while for me to go and look at it
or not. That is all."
It was now Morell’s turn to be silent,
and as he smoked he gave one or two
quiek glances at the face beside him. It
was a face so pleasant that many people
were deceived altogether with regard to
the character of which it was an index.
Only those who knew Geoffrey Derwent
well were aware that ujider the sunny,
debonair charm of his manner and ap
pearance there was a very resolute nature.
Obstinate he was tk '—for obstinacy is
always allied with intellectual weakness;
but when he had once seen clearly and
resolved firmly he acted inflexibly. There
were certain lines about his straight nose
and well cut mouth which would have
made this evident at ence to a physiog
nomist, and which struck Morell now as
he glanced at the profile presented to
him—a handsome profile that, with the
perpendicular brow and firmly rounded
chin, would not have looked amiss on a
bronze medal. It was only in profile
that this expression was caught. The
eyes dominate the face, and Derwent’s
gray ©yes were full of the frank and
pleasant good nature with which he re
garded all the world unless specially
roused to other sentiments; while one
does not often see a more attractive smile
than that which now and then made his
white teeth gleam under the sweeping
brown mustache.
Haying uttered his ultimatum, he said
nothing more, and indeed the scene be
fore him Whs now Strikhig enough to
. engage the attention of any one who saw
it fpr,the first time. The beautiful sylvan
park had suddenly become a theater on
which the fashionable world was dis
playing itself in full force and with all
its gayest plumes. Every seat was filled,
all Che chairs so carefully arranged along
the avenue were Occupied, and in every
direction, was a moving throng of prom
enaders, while two bands alternately
flooded 1 the air with melody. It is im
possible to imagine ar "thing more ani
mated than the eoene The long vistas
of shade, the masses A green turf and
fqll^ge, ; > the sparkling fountains, the
(statues mid great clumps of lilies, made
f a picturesque background for the figures
that passed In well bred throng among
them—graceful women in every variety
Of fashionable toilet, distinguished look
ing men and fairylike children. It was
*th6 Champs Elysees transferred to the
tropics, srith such color as only the
tropica can give; while here and there
through the brilliant crowd, brushing
silken skirts and point lace parasols, came
men and women who might have stepped
from an aboriginal forest, with their
dark faces and lithe, sinewy forms draped
in serape or rebozo—some passing with
calm unconcern through the elegant
throng, others offering here and there
the bright hned dnlees which they bore
on trays.
“It is the most charming picture I have
ever seen!” Derwent declared, as he
watched the scene with eyes full of in
terest, while Morell kept up a running
commentary of description concerning
the chief personages who passed. Sud
denly tlie young man broke in upbn this
with a quick exclamation. “What a
beautiful woman P’be said, “Who is she?*’
i . There were a. number of women in
right, most of them with claims to
beauty more or less pronounced, but
Morell had no doubt to whom he" allud
ed. Two ladies were passing at the mo
ment, both wearing the charming Span
ish costume, which no creation of Worth
or Felix can rival in becoipingness, and
on. the younger many eyes besides those
of Derwent were fastened. She was in-:
deed a beautiful creature—her beauty
being the supreme expression of the type
of loveliness peculiar to her country.
Soft brunette tints, delicate features and
dark eyes had been common enough in
t fho faces that went by, bfet here was a
fhee that fascinated by a distinction alto
own. The. complexion was
like ivory in tint and texture, the fea
tures, of exquisite delicaoy, had a cer
tain fine nobility of outline whioh gave
a lofty expression to the countenance
that was only redeemed from haughti
ness by the Bweetness of the lovely lips
and the softness of the eyes, so large and
dark and splendid that they would have
sufficed to lift a plain face into beauty.
Somewhat above the average height, her
figure was molded in faultless lines, and
she walked with the unconscious grace
which all Mexican women display, and
a proud dignity that seemed specially
her own. Dressed simply but richly in
black, with the lace mantilla draping
her beautiful head, she passed among the
throng like a stately young queen among
her subjects.
“Of course you mean that lovely girl
in black,” said Morell. “She is the most
beautiful woman in Mexico, and one of
the richest—Dona Zarifa Ormond y
Cardella.”
“Ormond!” repeated Derwent. “Surely
that is not a Spanish name?”
“No. Her father—lucky dog—is an
Irishman. The younger son of an Irish
baronet, he married Senorita Cardella,
an only child, and the heiress of a prin
cipality. Ormond, who had little be
sides good birth and good looks to recom
mend him when he secured, by sheer
audacity it is said, the lady and the for
tune, has made himself very popular in
Mexico by heartily adopting the country
and managing his wife’s estates admir
ably. He is a great swell when he comes
to the capital, but he spends the larger
part of his time on someone or other of
his immense haciendas. His wife is
dead, and Dona Zarifa, whom yon have
jnst seen, is sole heiress of one of the
greatest estates in Mexico.”
“Fate has given her too much,” said
Derwent. “Such beauty, and the for
tune of a princess!”
“But you must agree that the beauty
and the fortune are well matched. She
looks like a princess, besides being dow
ered as few princesses are. Be sure the
men who hope to marry her would not
have the least charm lessened,” he added
with a laugh.
“Some women should never marry,”
said Derwent decidedly. “That girl is
one of them. She looks too regal, too
fine, to stoop to any man of ordinary
mold, and men of extraordinary mold
do not abound.”
“Most of those in sight would differ
with you,” said Morell. “Did you ever
know a man who thought himself of
mold too ordinary for any woman to
stoop to? Dona Zarifa has suitors and
to spare, and, unless she is very unlike
other women, she would not dispense
with one of them.”
“Her looks are deceptive if she is not
unlike other women,” said Derwent.
“I should like to glance into the future
and see what she will make of the gifts
fortune has showered on her so lavish
ly—what part she will play in the world;
bnt probably I should only be disap
pointed if I did.”
“Not a doubt of it,” said Morell. “A
man is always disappointed when a
woman whom he admires has the bad
taste to marry another man. I have
heard that Dona Zarifa will probably
marry her kinsman, Senor Cardella; that
will restore the estates to the family.
Now let me suggest that it is time for
lunch, and that we had better go and
secure a table at the Cafe Anglais or the
Concordia before the crowd comes in.”
“Very well,” said Derwent, rising.
He was a strangely strung, fastidious
being, and the last item of information
about the dark eyed princess had taken
from him the desire to linger for another
<riimpse of her.
