The civil wars which have distracted Spain so long have often given rise to some of the most romantic incidents and scenes in real life that have received the sanction of history Its sons to ths use of arms seemed never contented unless wielding the f warfare and never more ated than when engaged in foreign or il wars The events story red during this period of Spanish histo- ry while her people were often arrayed one against the other It was just nightfall in the district of Arragon when a and weary soldier with only his good and well-tried Toledo blade by his side sank down be- fore the door of a peasant's cot too much exhausted even to ask for the ments which he so much needed ly a moment elapsed however before the inhabitants of the cottage ing his condition were busy in tering to his wants The sturdy peasant who was of the cot held a cup of wine to his lips while a young and der girl not quite bloomed to hood swathed a bandage about the ing arm and bathed his temples with cool spring water The soldier could only look his thanks smiling languidly upon those who were tending him His wound was deep and it bled so profusely that the cottager was obliged to raise him in his sturdy arms and bear him inside tho for he could no longer support himself The little household was all a bustle and con- fusion to prepare proper aid and comfort for the wounded soldier The matron was busy here the father there and the daughter in another place He was fully watched that but ere the next day's sun had set the soldier had become delirious and his wound presented to the eyes of the inexperienced cottagers the most fearful appearance and reasoning from this they feared that must prove tal But tho truth was that the fever that in his veins was more from of blood and consequent suffering than from immediate character of the that had disabled his arm Day day passed and still the soldier lay in a half dormant state of lethargy the fever struggling with his constitution one day seeming as though it must conquer the next haps feeble in its influence tho daughter of the cottager was untiring in her delicate attention to the stranger night and day she watched by his side smoothed his pillow bathed his brow or moistened his parched lips True he scarcely to realize these kindnesses yet a smile sometimes lit up his pale and haggard features while Im- was side A strong constitution and youth at prevailed over the fever and day by day the soldier gradually improved last able to go once more And le childlike -form that had watched him through a tedious fever the soldier over and through dells musical with Kibbling fountains and fragrant with lowers and here they would sit down he would of such gallant deeds of arms and such stones t true love and misfortune and hat poor was lost in wilder at eloquence and dwelt upon the real melody of his Tint Through all this character there ran a melancholy and he had he very word's he often himself littered she knew little of humon nature am of the world and could riot see bis A discriminating nyo thought him a man disgusted with lie and yet he too for such a conclusion or older singular why o remain at the Kit he had well enough dozen leagues if necessary love that kept him for loved him so dearly that Betrayed ungo of her heart yet considerate nnd spoke of love since wounded sat himself down before had been to enable him amply the agreeable and profitable visitor quite -a godsend to One day n sing in and when the massed I trust it may he was the reply of the now thoughtful guest At that moment his eyes fell upon those of and starting as an arrow had pierced his said Come gentle one let us walk once more through these loved and be scenes before I bid all well A secret seemed to reveal itself to the soldier as they sat now together beneath a bank where oft thoy had sat before for lours together lie read now the heart of the gentle one by his side and placing in arm about her waist and looking into icr face he won from her the And then as if his whole feelings at once changed ho told her that he was hy vastly of her tender and affection that his had been a vild and reckless life and his hand in had often been lifted to spill his blood that he had traveled much nd Imd been hardened by contract with the world and in fact that he could never make so and gentle a happy She had no reply for his eloquence but a single pearly The soldier while at the cot had said little of himself as it regarded his er life while and her parents were too considerate humble as were to seek for that information it was evident the soldier did not deserve to communicate But now as sat by his side and realized that he was about to leave her she could not but ask And where is your homo Senor for thus he had his name to the cottager In Valentin Ah continued he pressing her hand with his I could wish my life had been cast that I might dare to love thee nnd wod thee But alas I am un- fit to do either I am unworthy of thy and yet within this hour I realize how sweet has been the brief period I have dwelt with thee and that do love thee unwittingly The following morning when he left he gave the cottager the contents of his purse reserving a mere trifle for his ney and pressing a small but costly ring upon as a parting ed his lips to her forehead and wended his way on the mountain his distant homo at Valentin Six months passed since the wounded soldier left the hospitable one of those devastating tornadoes liar to the climate swept over to left vestage standing of that ful habitation entile were obliterate wreck and with the rest was lost Im- mother herself and father alone escaping What should they er go suggested The father was half broken-hearted by the loss of his companion and his Tic cared not whither they went and so on foot they turned their way toward the distant city which believed held him she loved She hardly expected to find him or if she did so she knew that he still loved her but then the thought that she was so near idea that she might possibly see him gave to her taart incitement enough to carry her thither over mountain and plain with willing though oftentimes feet At length they came in sight of with its Moorish its turrets palaces and public But here they were lost in the labyrinth streets and the giddy mazes and turmoil of the They had come without any definite purpose and were now entirely destitute of means Want stared them in the by some good fortune the father engaged vices to a noble as gardener and so ar- ranged the contract that it afforded him good accommodations for both himself and Time passed on and the father's skill began to manifest itself to the lordly owner's lie was pleased and the servants at of the where and her father lived The owner lands and gardens when found blooming within his palace walls a er so beautiful as the peasant girl lie was by her sweet ness of delicacy of her bear ing aud the grace form The father was surprised at the ness of Don questions con- his child and perhaps a troubled thought crossed when master turned away from the cottage door nnd walked back to the palace Don -had a- bad in entin he was n and whom few liked to cross still ewer to be intimate with His honor to which ho was Svas to obtained purchasing for him what not have otherwise Don ranzo was none and feared by nearly all we have told The only friend the peasant had made ia was a friar the convent of Santa Clara He watched over as i she had been his daughter months after of to Don he had in his planned tho dishonor of his beau- dependent All his advances had been met with such but firm gard that at first disconcerted but suddenly her father was taken sickened with fearful death came to the relief of his sufferings There was something about the den death of her father that struck the priest us mysterious lie had very denly died iti a manner that to his experienced eye seemed to indicate that he had been poisoned Whether this was intentionally done or otherwise he knew could ho conjecture save by the inference and yet there was a lurking suspicion in his mind that Don knew something more of his gardener's decease than he wished to knowledge The priest strongly ed foul play and that the unprincipled cavelier had taken summary weans to rid himself of the gardener's order to accomplish his designs upon the innocent and unprotected girl This indeed was the case for she was at once removed to his own house and placed under the strict guard of the who knew their masters pleasure and who had been taught to consider his slightest wish as their law Here the peasant girl was miserable Though young confiding she could not take the fearful situation itr which she found herself She saw danger but she knew no way to avoid Even the priest was no longer permitted to see her aud she felt indeed clone the noble nature of the and subdued by her firmness Don at last grew to look on her as something to his existance nnd even offered her his hand and title ir she would his wedded wife She had been placed on the alter reared in her own heart and she could never love again Don had been drinking deep onu day and at a lite hour came to rene's apartment She his excited state and trembled as ho came to her side i Come my pretty one give me a kiss Nay Signor I pray you respect my lonely situation 1 beseech But one single kiss for good night Signor I am alone and de- fenceless a poor weak girl You would not strike me dumb with fear But must and will have one Hold she cried raising her out- spread hands toward him You a re strong and can compel me to this ring is that thy cavalier as his eye by chance rested on her hand they seemed Alas answered it is the gift of one who was kind to me Let me see said Don half sobered surprise occasioned by thu jewel After a moments examination of the ring the cavalier with seeming ment returned it and let alone As much surprised as delighted at this the poor girl soon Tel I asleep in innocent repose but was astir again with the ing light By some lucky chance she discovered an unguarded door through which she hurried down the garden paths and knowing well the grounds was soon outside the palace walls and hastening toward the neighboring convent of Santo Clara where she threw herself upon the protection of the good priest who had so long befriended her The enamoured cavalier however at once suspected whether had gone and soon satisfied Himself of the truth of his suspicions The priest was ed and bidden to deliver her up but this he refused to do Nor would he hear of any bribery or offer as a remuneration if he would return the girl to what called her home At hist mood of attack ed him nothing the cavalier unmasked his soul and he told the priest that unless sho was returned to him before he would surely take his life that lie cared nothing for his office and that ho would thwarted Tho priest knew full well the ful character of tho man and though Tin moved by his his threats yet he him that he might make some arrange which he could prevent any dccc of violence and yet preserve lie therefore One way and one way only will 1 deliver up to you this maid 11 Name presence of the Duke The It is useless to annoy him It is the only way Tis well He will right and command that this perverse girl do give me her hand in marriage Within these two then we will meet you at the well Play me no thy life shall be the forfeit The procured for and led her wards the ducal palace his sacred garb gave him ence with the Duke Already was Don already his sat instate And now as he entered do so the the show reason why he not consent to a union so vastly above her in fortune and blood and thus May it please you noble Duke this gentle maid is an but for pure and innocent as the morning dow This Don is a bold bad man nay 1 care not for the frown of him or any maiden loves him not More than this her young heart loves another my Duke And for these plain and simple reasons I claim her re lease from any and all responsibility to this man Where is he whom the maiden asked the Duke calmly At that moment there rang through the court room of the palace a shrill and piercing that every one to his feet while throwing back the abundance of dark curls that erl her face looked toward the chair 01 state where stood the Duke now a ture of amazement It is Signor Gomez ejaculated the Duke springing forward just in time to her fainting form it is hy friend and longer the pool wounded but if thou wilt so mit thy future husband tho Duke of encia at once revived On that breast she was happy indeed Sho ed nothing now though sobbed as if her heart would break Turning to Don the Duke Your suit and audic'ice are may retire Signor To tho good priest he presented his warm thanks nnd substantial evidence of his regard and leading to his chair of states he seated lior by his side and declared hor the Duchess of cia old clock in the kitchen solemnly that my appointed ar- rived and with a slow sad yet noiseless left the Once the air iny wonted lightness of spirit returned myself with the thought that few years I should return to
