Here's adventure!

Here's romance!

Here's O. Henry's famous Robin Hood of the Old West,

The Cisco Kid!

There it is.

Any trouble getting it?

Aw, a couple of strangers took after me, but I give 'em

the slip.

Well, we'll soon find out what Old Man Blake's been so

mysterious about.

Well, what is it?

Well, it's mining equipment used for dynamite.

A new gadget called a detonator.

Detonator?

What's that?

Well, you use it instead of a fuse.

I, uh, worked one up north once.

(horses approaching) Cisco, is those "feetprints"

his trail?

We're still following his trail, Pancho.

It's those two strangers.

I thought you said you gave 'em the slip.

Let's get out of here.

What about this?

We'll leave it here.

The main thing is that Old Man Blake doesn't get a hold of it.

Looks like he got off his horse here.

He must have met someone.

Cisco, the trail is still fresh.

Maybe we can follow and find him, huh?

Pancho, first let's see what they stole from the Express

office.

Don't look very valuables to me.

Wait a minute.

Says here "Mr. Thomas Blake, Lucky Star Gold Mine,

Shadow Mountain."

We'll find out what this is when we get it to Mr. Blake.

Shadow Mountain?

That ain't very far from here, only about, well, 400 miles.

400 miles?

Long way, if you go by the way that's up north.

200 miles there, 200 miles back, and--

Pancho.

It's only two miles from here if we go north.

Heh, let's went the two miles north.

Ah, all right.

Here, put it in here.

Come in.

I'm so glad you dropped by.

Mr. Dana is a neighbor, and a very close friend.

This is Cisco and Pancho.

I saw those horses outside.

I just wondered if anything was the matter.

The mining equipment that Dad ordered-- someone tried to steal

it from the Express office.

But these gentlemen recovered it.

Mining equipment?

Dad's got it, over at the mine.

He's getting ready to blast some new vein he's excited about.

Well, I'm glad to know everything is all right.

Nice meeting you gentlemen.

If there's anything I can do to help, let me know.

You've always been such a great help, Dana.

I can't tell you how grateful I am for what you are doing.

It was a pleasure, senorita.

I wish there was something I can do in return.

Senorita, maybe you can told us how far it is to the next

town, you know, we've been having a pretty long ride.

Oh, nonsense.

We'll put you up for the night.

Ooh!

In our cabin up the road.

Senorita, that is very kind of you.

Well, do I get paid?

You'll get paid, all right.

But if you stick around another day, I'll double your money.

Yeah, how about those two strangers?

They get a close look at us?

No, we're safe.

Listen, did you, uh, tell me you knew how to work that

new-fangled gadget?

The detonator?

Well, yeah, sort of.

It's pretty simple when you work around dynamite.

Well, uh, tell me, how's it work?

You use a squib in place of a dynamite cap.

It's got two wires.

You hook onto it, connect up to the posts--

That's it.

Good.

Come on inside, I'll tell you how to make a lot of money.

Well, Mr. X, I think we'll just put a little dynamite

in here.

(monkey chittering) Now we'll put another one in.

(monkey squeaking) And we have to put a fuse

in this one.

What do you say, Mr. X, eh?

Is this all right?

(monkey squeaking) And, we'll just put that one

in carefully...

Mm-hm.

Back that up just a little bit, I think.

(monkey squeaking) There, Mr. X.

How's that look to you, huh?

Let's get this wire here and hook it up.

You know, I'm glad you agree with me, Mr. X.

This is a very delicate operation, here.

(monkey squeaking) Remind me to buy you an extra

bunch of bananas if we strike rich ore, huh?

(monkey chattering) Now, I think we'd better

get out of here.

We can set this thing off.

Let's go, Mr. X.

(exploding) (monkey chattering)

(monkey chattering) Why, Mr. X.

What have you been up to now?

You better let me clean you up before Dad sees you, or he'll

send you right back to Africa.

What are you doing here, anyway?

You wouldn't leave Dad.

Dad!

Dad! Dad!

Dad!

Dad?

Well, how'd it go?

Just like you figured.

Now pay up.

Sooner I get out of here, the better I'll like it.

Simmer down.

You'll get your money, all right.

Soon as I take over that mine, we'll both be riding high.

I can use a good man like you.

Yeah, thanks just the same, but I'll take my pay now like

you promised.

I'll pay you off when I get good and ready, so relax.

I may have a couple of other jobs for you.

More dirty work?

For a man with a price on his head, you talk pretty big.

Hey, wait a minute.

Quick, Dana, there's been an explosion at the mine.

Where's your dad?

He's trapped in the mine.

Please, there's no time to lose.

Get the horses, quick!

Alice, are those two strangers still hanging around?

They spent the night in the old cabin, but I haven't seen

them today.

Why?

Oh, never mind.

I'll get a couple of men and meet you over at the mine.

Please, hurry.

(Pancho chuckling) Hey, Cisco, didn't I never

told you about my uncle down in Sonora?

My Uncle Conejillo?

(chuckling) Yes, Pancho.

Many times, amigo.

You know, he was a little devil that-- the--

(monkey chittering) Cisco, what's that noise

out there?

I don't know, Pancho.

But it sounds like it's coming from outside the door, there.

Yeah, but no bird ever made that kind of a talking noise,

Cisco.

That is a pretty strange noise.

(monkey noises continuing) Come in, whoever you is!

Come on, let's see what it is.

(Pancho laughing) Cisco, this is that noise

we hear!

Mr. X is paying us a visit, look!

Not us, Pancho.

You, amigo.

You know, Cisco, this is the little fellow I see in

Mr. Blake's house last night.

I wonder where he get him, huh?

Mr. Blake was an explorer.

He got it in Africa.

Oh.

Hey, Pancho.

What?

Something is bothering it.

What?

Oh.

He's full of dirt, Cisco, he's getting it all over me.

Hey, Pancho.

What?

You remember that explosion we heard in the mine a little

while ago?

Yes.

He must have been in there.

Something must have gone wrong.

You are right, Cisco.

Come on.

Hurry up, see if you can loosen that beam.

This explosion must have been caused by a detonator gadget, or

whatever you call it.

I warned him about working the mine alone.

This never would have happened if he'd-a listened

to me.

I've been trying to get him to sell me this mine for a long

time.

Please, hurry.

He may still be alive.

Anybody in the shaft when it caved in?

Mr. Blake's in there.

And we don't need any more meddling from you two.

Senor, we think maybe you need all the help you can get.

Besides, you're digging in the wrong shaft.

What?

Look at Mr. X, he knows where his master is.

(monkey chattering) Are you trying to tell me

that that monkey knows more about mines than I do?

No, senor.

But my friend here may be right.

That old shaft, it's old and abandoned.

This one is brand new.

It's been worked in.

Now, look here, you two, if you hadn't-a brought that

detonator gadget here yesterday, none of this would have

happened.

So what business have you got trying to boss the job now?

Senor, this is not the time to argue.

You can dig wherever you may like.

All we want is a couple shovels and a--

Now, look here.

How do I know that you two didn't have something to do with

this cave-in?

Dana, please, they only want to help.

Every second counts.

Please, please go on digging.

Come on, I'll show you where the tools are.

Come on, Mr. X, come on.

(monkey chittering) Well, looks like we're gonna

have to dig the old man out now, eh, Dana?

Trouble with you, Johnny Clark, you give up too fast.

Wait a minute, Clark.

Unhook that thing.

Hold it up here.

Come on.

Here's the detonator.

And it's just as I thought.

What do you mean?

An 'X.' Must have been the monkey that

set off the explosion.

'X.' It is his mark.

That monkey's been nothing but trouble ever since your

father brought him here.

I don't know why you don't get rid of him.

I'll-- I'll lock him up in the tool shed.

Wait a minute.

I'll go with you.

That animal's getting dangerous.

You look exhausted.

You better get some rest.

I'll take the monkey over to the tool shed.

I'll never forgive myself if anything happens to Dad.

It wasn't your fault.

Do you think I'd better get some more help.

No, I don't think so, they'd just be in the way.

Besides, these men are working as hard as they can.

Here, I'll take the monkey.

(muffled grunting) Wait a minute.

Be quiet.

What's eatin' you now?

Shhh!

(groaning) I think I heard a noise

in there.

(muffled groaning) Yeah, there it is!

Come on, he's still alive!

Come on!

I'll get Dana, get some of the heavier tools.

What are you doing here?

Blake, he's still alive, we just heard him.

I was afraid of that.

I'll get some of the heavy tools.

Hold it.

What's on your mind?

I got other ideas.

You're not gonna try that again.

This time we'll use enough dynamite to make sure.

Yeah?

How about the men in the tunnel?

We'll take care of the strangers first.

Then we'll call our men out.

Deal me out.

I've had enough of this.

I'm gonna dig the old man out.

What's the matter with you?

Well, you didn't tell me there was a girl in it.

Oh, so that's it.

You see a pretty face, and right away you want to change sides.

Well, you're in no position to walk out on me now.

I'd see you in jail.

I'll go to that Sheriff and tell him everything before I do

any more of your dirty work.

I believe you mean that.

I sure do.

Who'll you get to work your detonator now, Mr. Dana?

You forget, you told me how.

Yeah, but you won't work it.

(groaning) Hey, Pancho.

Hm?

I still hear him.

He's still alive, but he's very weak.

I don't think there is much air left in there.

Cisco, I go tell the senorita, it'll make her very

happy, eh?

That's a very good idea, Pancho.

And see what's holding up those men that are supposed to bring

the extra tools here.

Bueno.

(groaning) What about the picks?

Did you get them?

Clark's bringing them.

How are you coming along?

We can hear him clearly.

But he can't last much longer in there.

(groaning) Come on, boys,

let's speed it up.

Watch him.

Give me the other end of that wire.

Ah, no, no, no, don't worry too much, because your daddy, he

gonna be dig up from the gold mine pretty soon, don't worry,

eh?

I can't tell you how grateful I am for what you

and Cisco are doing.

(Pancho chuckling) Ah, been nothing at all.

Tell me about this mine.

Does it give up much gold all the time, huh?

No, not right now.

But Dad said he was sure there was a rich vein running through

it.

A rich vein?

What he mean-- oh.

(laughing) I wish I had a gold mine with a

rich vein running through it to get the gold, heh.

Do you think it would make you any happier, really?

Oh, I don't know about the happy business, but I want you

to be happy.

You know something?

To be unhappy interferes with one's pleasure.

It no good.

(Pancho chuckling) All right, let's go.

(monkey chittering) (monkey squeaking)

This oughta work when I get this other wire on.

Here goes Cisco.

Maybe I put them on the wrong place.

Your father-- tell me, what do you do when he was way over

there in that big country, what do you call it-- Africa?

He was an engineer.

We used to travel a lot in those days.

That's where we first met Mr. X.

Yeah.

Dad's grown very fond of him.

Yeah, he's-- What's the matter?

Something happen?

Uh, Mr. X is gone.

Mr. X is gone? The-- Hey.

Hey, Mr. X.

Mr. X.

We're gonna be in trouble.

Come on, get out, go, move it.

Gadgets!

There's some fuse inside.

I'm going in to do this thing right.

You fellas cover me.

All right, hold it!

All right, Dana.

You see what I have in my hands.

Go ahead and shoot.

One shot, and you'll blow us both up.

Oh, you're not going to shoot, eh?

Drop your gun.

Quick, in here!

They can't help you now.

Nobody can help you!

Go ahead, drop your gun.

Here!

Empty!

Why, you-- (grunting)

Hey, what-- that little rascal, he did went, didn't he?

He's gone back to the mine, I'm sure of it.

You must stop him, Pancho.

If he gets in the way there, no telling what Dana might do to

him.

Don't worry, I will find that little rascal someplace.

Mr. X!

Mr. X!

Mr. X?

(gunshots) (nearby gunshots)

All right, get up.

(nearby gunshots) Tell your men to hold their

fire!

It's me, Dana!

Hold your fire, I'm coming out.

Go on.

Drop them guns, you two.

What happened, Cisco?

Dana here tried to blow us up in the mine.

You better get in there and dig out your neighbor, and hope

it isn't too late.

Go on!

But I didn't rig that cave-in.

Who did?

Clark!

There he goes.

Watch them, Pancho.

Go on, get inside and start digging, pronto.

(monkey squeaking) (laughing)

Senor X put a nice brand on them for the sheriff, eh?

X marks the spot.

(laughing) Oh, Pancho!

Oh, Cisco!

(laughing) Well, this is where we leave

you, amigos.

But we'll be back soon.

Look for us!

(both laughing)
