Traven - - In: Jugend. Münchner illustr. Wochenschrift für Kunst und Leben. - München 1925, H. 48, S. 1157. - -Eine Anzahl indianischer Arbeiter, die in den Bergwerken von Chihuahua -gearbeitet hatten und sich jetzt in dem Vorort der Stadt herumtrieben, -stritten sich eines Tages über die Wirksamkeit der Dynamitpatronen, die -beim Sprengen der Gesteinsmassen verwendet werden. Die Mehrzahl stimmte -darin überein, daß die Wirkung auf den menschlichen Körper -unbeschreiblich vernichtend sei; einige wenige dagegen behaupteten, die -Wirkung komme nur Gesteinsmassen gegenüber zum vollen Ausdruck, während -sie gegenüber dem menschlichen Körper beinahe harmlos zu nennen sei. - -Als eine Einigung darüber nicht erzielt werden konnte, erbot sich der -Vertreter der „harmlosen Wirkung“ an seiner eigenen Person die -Richtigkeit seiner Meinung zu beweisen. - -Es dauerte nicht lange, da war eine Patrone besorgt, das Hütchen wurde -aufgesteckt und die Zündschnur angehängt. Der mutige Kämpfer für seine -Überzeugung ließ sich aber doch von der Gegenpartei überreden, daß er -Vorsicht üben möge, denn es wäre ja immerhin möglich, daß die Majorität -recht habe und es wäre doch jammerschade, wenn er sich nicht davon -überzeugen könne, daß er unrecht habe, um für sein ferneres Leben daraus -eine Lehre zu ziehen. - -Er sah das schließlich auch ein und er begab sich mit der Schaar -streitsüchtiger Genossen zu einem großen steinernen Eckhause. Nachdem -die „Wirkungsgläubigen“ sich in respektvolle Entfernung zurückgezogen -hatten, ging der Mann bin, entzündete die Zündschnur und hielt die -Patrone mit seiner rechten Hand um die Hausecke. - -Wenige Augenblicke später erzitterte die ganze Stadt. Die Bevölkerung, -ein Erdbeben oder eine Minenexplosion befürchtend, eilte auf die Straße. -Als sie sah, daß es sich nur um zwei Eckwände eines Hauses handelte, die -auf unerklärliche Weise eingestürzt waren, zog sich jeder wieder in -seine ruhige Häuslichkeit zurück. - -Die Freunde des Opfers gingen tüchtig an die Arbeit. Sie räumten den -Schutt der beiden Wände fort, um festzustellen, welche Partei recht -habe, denn bis jetzt war das noch nicht entschieden. Die Wirkung auf -Gesteinsmassen war ja von keiner Seite bestritten worden. Und richtig, -nachdem sie eine Weile gebuddelt hatten, kroch der Ungläubige ganz ruhig -und mit der Miene eines Mannes, der das Recht auf seiner Seite hat, -hervor und schüttelte sich den Schutt aus den Kleidern. - -Ganz vollständig war er allerdings nicht mehr, das hatte er ja auch -garnicht behauptet, daß dies der Fall sein würde. Jedenfalls war ihm die -rechte Hand bis zum halben Unterarm fortgerissen. Daraus machte er sich -aber nicht viel. Er bestand darauf, daß man nun die Hand auch noch -suche, damit man sehen könne, daß sie nicht allzu sehr beschädigt sei. -Aber von der Hand war nichts zu finden. - -„Und ich sage euch ganz bestimmt,“ so begann sofort wieder der Streit, -„es war nicht die Patrone, die meine Hand abgerissen hat. Die Patronen -sind ganz und gar harmlos. Es war das Hütchen, denn was da die -nichtswürdigen Fabrikanten hineinstecken, das weiß man nie. Das sind -alles Schwindler und Betrüger.“ - -Der Indianer bedauerte später nie, daß er seine Hand hergegeben hatte. -An Stelle der Hand bekam er einen eisernen Haken, einen Arbeitshaken. Er -arbeitete aber nie damit, sondern wurde mit diesem Haken einer der -gefürchtetsten Raufbolde unter der Arbeiterschaft, die ihm mit an -Ehrfurcht grenzender Scheu begegnete und sich geschmeichelt fühlte seine -Wünsche erfüllen zu dürfen. - - - - - Anmerkungen zur Transkription - - -Quelle: _Jugend.

Die Mehrzahl stimmte darin -überein, daß die Wirkung auf den menschlichen Körper -unbeschreiblich vernichtend sei; einige wenige dagegen -behaupteten, die Wirkung komme nur Gesteinsmassen -gegenüber zum vollen Ausdruck, während sie gegenüber -dem menschlichen Körper beinahe harmlos zu nennen sei. -</p> - -<p> -Als eine Einigung darüber nicht erzielt werden konnte, -erbot sich der Vertreter der „harmlosen Wirkung“ an -seiner eigenen Person die Richtigkeit seiner Meinung zu -beweisen. -</p> - -<p> -Es dauerte nicht lange, da war eine Patrone besorgt, -das Hütchen wurde aufgesteckt und die Zündschnur angehängt. -Der mutige Kämpfer für seine Überzeugung ließ -sich aber doch von der Gegenpartei überreden, daß er -Vorsicht üben möge, denn es wäre ja immerhin möglich, -daß die Majorität recht habe und es wäre doch jammerschade, -wenn er sich nicht davon überzeugen könne, daß -er unrecht habe, um für sein ferneres Leben daraus -eine Lehre zu ziehen. -</p> - -<p> -Er sah das schließlich auch ein und er begab sich mit -der Schaar streitsüchtiger Genossen zu einem großen -steinernen Eckhause. Nachdem die „Wirkungsgläubigen“ -sich in respektvolle Entfernung zurückgezogen hatten, ging -der Mann bin, entzündete die Zündschnur und hielt die -Patrone mit seiner rechten Hand um die Hausecke. -</p> - -<p> -Wenige Augenblicke später erzitterte die ganze Stadt. -Die Bevölkerung, ein Erdbeben oder eine Minenexplosion -befürchtend, eilte auf die Straße. Als sie sah, daß -es sich nur um zwei Eckwände eines Hauses handelte, die -auf unerklärliche Weise eingestürzt waren, zog sich jeder -wieder in seine ruhige Häuslichkeit zurück. -</p> - -<p> -Die Freunde des Opfers gingen tüchtig an die Arbeit. -Sie räumten den Schutt der beiden Wände fort, um -festzustellen, welche Partei recht habe, denn bis jetzt war -das noch nicht entschieden. Die Wirkung auf Gesteinsmassen -war ja von keiner Seite bestritten worden. Und -richtig, nachdem sie eine Weile gebuddelt hatten, kroch -der Ungläubige ganz ruhig und mit der Miene eines Mannes, -der das Recht auf seiner Seite hat, hervor und schüttelte sich den -Schutt aus den Kleidern. -</p> - -<p> -Ganz vollständig war er allerdings nicht mehr, das hatte er ja -auch garnicht behauptet, daß dies der Fall sein würde. Jedenfalls war -ihm die rechte Hand bis zum halben Unterarm fortgerissen. Daraus -machte er sich aber nicht viel. Er bestand darauf, daß man nun die -Hand auch noch suche, damit man sehen könne, daß sie nicht allzu sehr -beschädigt sei. Aber von der Hand war nichts zu finden. -</p> - -<p> -„Und ich sage euch ganz bestimmt,“ so begann sofort wieder der -Streit, „es war nicht die Patrone, die meine Hand abgerissen hat. -Die Patronen sind ganz und gar harmlos. Es war das Hütchen, -denn was da die nichtswürdigen Fabrikanten hineinstecken, das weiß -man nie. Das sind alles Schwindler und Betrüger.“ -</p> - -<p> -Der Indianer bedauerte später nie, daß er seine Hand hergegeben -hatte. An Stelle der Hand bekam er einen eisernen Haken, einen -Arbeitshaken. Er arbeitete aber nie damit, sondern wurde mit diesem -Haken einer der gefürchtetsten Raufbolde unter der Arbeiterschaft, -die ihm mit an Ehrfurcht grenzender Scheu begegnete und sich geschmeichelt -fühlte seine Wünsche erfüllen zu dürfen. -</p> - -<div class="trnote chapter"> -<p class="transnote"> -Anmerkungen zur Transkription -</p> - -<p> -Quelle: <em>Jugend.
