elapsed however before the inhabitants of the cottage discovering his condition were busily engaged in administering to his wants Tlie sturdy peasant who master of the cot held 1 cnp of wine to his

upon those who were him His wound was deep nnd it profusely lhat the was to raise him in his sturdy arm and inside the cottage for ho could no longer support himself Tho little household was all alms

day's sun had set the soldier had become delirious nnd his wound presented to the eyes of the inexperienced cottager a most fearful appearance reasoning from this they feared that it must prove fatal But the truth was that tho fever that now raged in his veins was more from fatigue loss of blood and consequent than from the immediate character of tho sword wound that liad disabled his nnu Day

loved by none and feared by ly all wo have told his character The only friend the peasant and Iris daughter had made in was a friar of the convention of Santa Clara He watched over as if she had been his only daughter A few months after the introduction of to he had in his vileness planned he dishonor of his beau- dependent All his advances had been met with such calm but firm gard that he was at first disconcerted but suddenly her father was taken ill and plain and simple reasons I claim her ro- sickened with fearful rapidity until came to the relief of his to the Duke who satin state with about him And now as the whose duly it to so called upon the priest to speak for his charge before the Duke and show the son why lie not consent ton union with one so vastly above her in fortune and blood and thus benefit herself May it you noble Duke this tle maid is an but for pure and innocent as the ing dew This man Don a bold bad my I care not for the frown of him or any The maiden loves him not More than this her young loves another 511 y noble Duke And for these There was something about tho sudden death of her father that struck the priest as mysterious lie had very suddenly sickened and died in a manner that to his experienced eye seemed to indicate that he had been poisoned Whether this was intentionally done or otherwise he knew not nor could Le conjecture save by in- ference and yet there was a lurking in his mind that Don know something more of his gardner's decease than he wished to acknowledge The priest strongly suspected foul play and that the unprincipled cavalier had taken summary means to rid himself of the nor's presence in order to accomplish his designs upon the innocent and ed girl This indeed was the case for sLe was at once removed to his own bouse and ced under the strict guard of the tics who knew their master's pleasure and who had been taught to consider his slightest wish as their law Here the le could never make so and ant girl was miserable Though young i r j i i i 11 i being happy She had no reply for his eloquence but i single pearly tear drop The soldier while at tho cot had said le of himself as it regarded his former life and her

whither go suggested the father was half broken hearted by the loss of his companion cared not whither th foot they turned way towards Ihc which believed hold she loved She hardly expected to find him or if slic did she knew not that he slill loved her But then she thought that she was so near him tho idea that she might sibly see him gave to her loving heart incitement enough to carry her over mountain and plain with though oftentimes weary feet At length they came in of lia with it's moorish gates it's many rets palaces and public buildings Tint here they wero lost in the labyrinth of the streets and the giddy masses and turmoil of the city had come without any and confiding she cotild not mistake the fearful situation in which slie found self She saw clanger but knew no way to avoid it Even the priest was no longer permitted to see her and she was left indeed alone Struck with Ihc noble nature of ilia girl and subdued by her quiet firmness Don at last grew to look on her as something necessary to his existence and even offered her his hand and title if she would become his wedded wife She had been placed on the altar reared in her own heart and she could never love again

cavalier at once cd whither had gone soon lo definite purpose and now entirely lease from any responsibility this man is he whom the maid asked tho Duke calmly At thai moment there rang through the courtroom of the palace a scream so shrill and piercing that every one sprang to their feet while throwing back the abundance of dark curls that screened her face looked toward tbe chair of State
