The general stood for moment as
one dumbfounded. Then he turned to a
subordinate and ordered that the ex-
ecution of the spy be postponed until
morning.
"Take the three men to the next fort
to the SOUTH" he added. "See that
Mendez and the Frenchman are securely
bound. This matter must be investi-
gated thoroughly. 1t is evident that
there is deep conspiracy here. I was
warned of Mendez, but I did not ex-
pect to find proof so quickly, much less
confession"
With this he turned about and went
back to the fort" Soldiers FASTENED
to obey his commands and in short or
der Delaigne, the colonel and the spy
were marching under heavy guard to
the next fort in the Gordon to the south.
The American, more amazed at the
change in the situation than the general
had been, had not yet found his speech,
when Mendez began to talk to him in
French.

monsieur" he said gravely. II have
endured much and could have endured
more, anything but that"

All machete!" shouted Mendez and the orderly together

both could see a file of soldiers escort
ing a bound prisoner. They were ap-
preaching the place where Delaigne
was confined. Behind them walked a
group of officers.
General" called Colonel Mendez, eX-
citedly, General! 1 beg you halt the
men. I have a most important sugges-
ton to make
Surprised at his earnestness, the gen.
eral, frowning, ordered the file to halt.
Then he advanced to the hut.
You have there the spy" said Men
DEE. whom you believe to be guilty of
bringing the papers just found upon
this prisoner" indicating Delaigne.
YES" said the general, "there is no
doubt that he is the guilty spy"
"Then ask him where he got the pa
pers and to whom he gave them. 1t
may reveal an important secret. Some
body, general, smuggled them to this
prisoner"
"Such questions have been asked and
the spy is mute" returned the general.
May I ask him."
For answer the general summoned the
spy, who was even then on his way to
be shot.
ITO whom did you give papers or a
paper when you arrived at this fort ?"
asked Mendez.
The man did not open his lips.
You keep your oath loyalty" said
Mendez, with show of deep feeling,
but you may speak the truth now.
You gave the papers to me-"
The spy gave a cry of horror. His

exclaimed Delaigne. How did you
reach this place? But what care I for
the means? All care for is the knowl-
edge that there must be some forgive
ness in your heart or you would not
come to me thus"
She answered with sob and, stand
ing close, put her hands upon his Shout
ders and her head upon his breast.
You speak of forgiveness from mel"
she exclaimed, between her tears, when
it is who need it, dear, dear Maurice!"
Louisa! you love me?"
"More, far more than my life! Oh.
that 1 could give mine for yours.
Maurice. Maurice" she interrupted,
with frenzy in her tone, don't you I'M
derstand yet? 1 wanted you to take
the papers!"
You wanted"
Eyes. 1 made you do it, and oh! what
a penalty we both must pay for it. You
are to die, and with your death the
light of my life goes out"
But did not you realize that 7 would
take the papers il possible to the leader
of the American expedition"
THAT was why wanted you to take
them. All! hear my confession, Maui
rice, and forgive if you can. I am heart
and soul for Cuba Libre. My father
hates the Spanish rule with a. hatred
too bitter to be expressed or measured.
Colonel Mendez is of US. He is q Cuban
spy, and compared to my fathers feel
ings his are as the sun to a CANDLE
flame. Do you understand"
"Only as beginning. Louisa. Why
did you not tell me these things before?''
Because 1 was bound by the most
sacred oath, and because-I dared not
Maurice. I loved you, but can you un-
derstand? I did not trust you. How
could I? In my Heart I knew you to

be careful. And I had to act quickly
without time for reflection. I really

me more about the papers. Why was

seemed to be certain condemnation,
Delaigne determined upon desperate
struggle for life, which never before
had seemed so sweet to him. He in
sisted upon his assumed nationality
and persisted in his denial of all knowl-
edge of the official documents. He
could not doubt that Louisa and the
others would expose him, but against
their expected testimony he placed his
unsupported assertions with an abiding
hope that fear of French complications
would avail to save him.

lency, Senior de Cardenas and Colcne.
Mendez?" asked the commandant at
the end.
IT am" Delaigne replied.
Thereupon Colonel Mendez was called
to testify.
II know the prisoner" he said, coldly.
ct have met him often at the house Of
his excellency and elsewhere in Hava-
ma. He was at his excellency's on Sun
day evening when these documents
were brought from the Palace. On that
evening I arrested Brown, the Ameri-
can correspondent and spy, within the
patio. This prisoner knew Brown and
pleaded for him."
WAS the American, Brown, at the
house for the purpose of getting pos
session of the papers?" asked the COM
mandant.
1T seems a reasonable supposition."
"And you think the prisoner was in
league with Brown"
IT do not care to go SO far as that.
The court has all my knowledge Of the
matter
Zone more question, colonel. When
did you see the prisoner after Sunday
EVENING""
1.-THE next morning at Senior de Car
denas' house."
Prisoner" said the commandant, Gin
view of your nationality we wish to
give you every opportunity to clear
yourself. Have you any questions to
put to Colonel Mendez?"
Delaigne reflected a moment. Men
DEE evidently still believed him to be a
Frenchman, else he would have pro-
claimed to the contrary. That meant
that Louisa had not told him. She
might then keep his secret, and thus
sustain his one hope Of acquittal. In
any event he could not ask questions

mandant, sternly, found them within
his grounds close by the spot where
you were captured. The marks of a
struggle on the ground outside identify
the spot. You undoubtedly threw these
papers over the wall"
II never saw them BEFORE" said De-
laigne.
In face Of clustering cross-examin-
alton he persisted in this denial.
Very well, we shall see," said the
commandant at last. He went back
into the fort" and Delaigne saw thar
the peasant was taken to a hut and
kept there under guard.
About the middle of the forenoon De-
laigne was SO overpowered by fatigue
that he fell asleep. His guards con-
siderately stretched him out upon the
ground and thus he lay until nearly
sunset. He was aroused by a scliier
shaking him. Another was lcosing the
halter from his legs.
"Ar I to be freed at last" asked the
prisoner.
The soldiers made no reply. When
they had freed his legs they led him
within the fort" and there he saw
Louisa.
She sat at the back Of the room, and
beside her chair stood Colonel Member
and her father. They looked at him
with frowning faces and, guiltily
abashed, he lowered his eyes to the
floor. Not until the ordeal that fol-
lowed was well over did he venture to
look their way again.
Inc cornmandant, thanked by two Of
'ncers of subordinate rank, sat behind
a crude table. Elsewhere in the room

SYNOPSIS.
Maurice Delaigne is young American
OF French descent. His knowledge OF
French enables him to masquerade in
Havana as the representative of q French
commercial house, while in reality he is
IN American correspondent, daily sending
important news to his paper. He is in
love with Louisa, the daughter of Senior
ne Cardenas, known in Havana as a
Spaniard Of the most loyal stripe. Car
denas Is in intimate relations with the
palace of the Captain-General, AMI when
an American named Brown is arrested in
his house by Colonel MendeZ the senior is
embarrassed 1t turns out that Brown Is
an intimate friend Of Delaignes, and that
Louisa and her lover knew that the
American had taken refuge in the house
when pursued by the Spaniards. The next
day 1T Is learned that Brown has escaped,
but has been ovcrtaken and shot dcnG.
The rigil investigation that is sure to
follow will probably reveal the fact that
Brown had been found in Cardenas'
house, and Delaigne, in order to prevent
any possible suspicion from falling en-
Louisa or her father reveals to the girl
his true character. She tells him he must
flee at once and offers to help him. She
gives him map and directions to reach
Mariel, where, according to some docu-
ments that he has stolen from the Car
denas house, an American expedition is
about to land. Delaigne succeeds in get
ting out of Havana, but that night as he
is rapidly travelling westward he is over
taken by Spanish soldiers and made a
prisoner.

ficer. 1.-The general will order him to be
shot Immediately"
Delaigne yielded to the guards with
out resistance. and a moment later he
was alone again with Mendez.
1T was a noble act for Cuba Libre,''
whispered the colonel. Nov you can
die with a conviction that you have
served the cause"
Yes, and that you are my murder
er!' Missed the prisoner. II see your
motives now. You put up this job,
knowing that I had been reprieved,
knowing that I would be searched, and
anxious only to 81. me out of the way
so that you might win Senorita de Car
denas."
The colonel's reply was loud gasp.
In the darkness his features could not
be seen, but the sound he made was
instinct with horror. He threw open
The herald., 1898-07-17

II am not sure that I understand
you," said Delaigne.
Monsieur, the devotion we Cubans
have for our country is something sur
passing human love. 1t is beyond and
above it. We serve our sacred cause
with an absolute ana complete disre-
gard of human relationships. Our cri-
terion of honor is service to Cuba. We
may lie if we deceive the enemy. We
may kill if we kill him. We may sac
rifice friends if we thereby sustain the
cause. That I, who have severed all
the ties that bind a man ordinarily to
his kind, should be accused of yield
ing to human love and of committing
a foul deed to promote it. All! mon
sieur! it cuts me to the quick. could
have seen de Cardenas and his fair
daughter shot, and kept silence, but
to be accused of such dishonor was be-
