As she spoke she struck her horse again with the whip. At the same time by a violent wrench on the bridle rein she turned him swift- ly toward the open cliff. Quick as she had been, however, Alvarado’s own movement was quicker. He struck spur into his powerful barb and with a single bound was by her side in the very nick of time. Her horse’s fore- feet were slipping among the loose stones on the edge. In another second they would both be over. Alvarado threw his right arm around her and with a force superhuman dragged her from the saddle. at the same time forc- lng his own horse violently backward with his bridle hand. His instant promptness had saved her. for the frightened horse she rode. unable to control himself, plunged down the cliff and was crushed to death a thousand feet below. The road at the point they had ar- rived wound sharply around the spur “Aye, filth men it" is Effluent," said the girl. and the sound of a sob in her voice cut him to the heart, “and these thinks are above love, above every- thing. I do notâ€"I cannot understand. I cannot comprehend. You have re. Jected me. I have oflered myself to you a second time after the refusal of last night. I, too, am a slave. I love you. Nay, I cannot marry Don Felipe de Tobar. ’Twere to make a sacrilege of a sacrament.” “Thy father”â€" “I have done my best to obey him. I can no more.” “What wilt thou do?” CHAPTER XIII. “ I God!” cried the young sol- dier hoarsely, straining her to his breast, while endeavor- ing to calm his nervous and excited horse. “What would you have done?” “Why didn’t you let me go?” she ask- ed, struggling feebly in his arms. “It would all have been over then.” “I could not. I love you.” The words were wrung from him in spite of himself by her deadly peril. by her desperate design. which he had only frustrated by superhuman 00101:.- ness and strength. He was pale. shak- lng. trembling, unnerved. for her. As he spoke those words. “I love you,” so blissful for her to hear, she slipped her arm around his neck. He forgot everything-honor, duty, his wordâ€"everything he threw to the winds. Before the passion which sought death when denied him his own powers of resistance vanished. He strained her to his breast and bent his head to kiss her. Again and again he drank at the upturned fountain of at- feetion. her lips. The shock had been too much for him. He had seen her upon the verge of eternity. She thought nothing of that in her present joy. She only realized that she was in his arms again, that he had kissed her, and be- tween the kisses be poured out words that were even greater caresses. The others were far behind. They were alone upon the mountain side, with the rocks behind and the great sapphire sea of the Caribbean before them. He held her close to his breast, and they forgot everything but love as they gently pricked along the road. It was near noon now, and, as the road a furlong‘; farther debouched into an open plateau shaded by trees and watered Ly a running brook which purled down the mountain side from some inaccessi- ble cloud swept height, it was a fitting place to make camp, where the whole party, tired by a long mm! trav- el, could repose themselves mm the breeze of afternoon tempered the heat His W pub-apnea saved her i SIR HENRY MORfiAN, 1 BUCCANEER , The other: were far behind COPYRIGHT. 1.05.

The story 13 as old as Edenâ€"the woman tempted”â€" “It cannot be,” he said. “I must go to the Viceroy when he returns from the Orinoco war and tell him that l have betrayed him." “I will tell him,” she answered, “or wilt thou tell him What I tell thee?” she went on. “Surely.” “Then say to him that I sought death rather than be given to Don Felipe or to any one else. Tell him you saved me on the very brink of the cliff and that never soldier made a better fight for field or flag than thou didst make for thy honor and duty. but that “I should have been stronger; I should not have weakened. But I shall fight no more. It is all over.” "Ah. thou must not." she whispered, nestling closer to him. “And tell my father that should harm come to theeâ€"- il' in their anger he or De Tolmr lay lnml upan theeâ€"it will not advantage their plans. for I swear. if there be no other way.

I leaped to death. I shut my eyes as I drove the horse toward the cliff. and I awakened to find myself In your armsâ€"in heaven! Let nothing take me hence.” "I cannot shelter myself behind a woman." ”“1011 I will tell them both myself.” she cried. “You shall know. they shall know. how a Spanish woman can love." “And thou shalt know, too," answer- ed Alvarado firmly, “that though I break my heart 1, an unknown, can expatiate my guilt with all the pride of most ancient lineage and birth highest of them all.” “I am a false friend, an ungrateful servitor, a forsworn man, a perjured soldier!” he groaned, passing his hand over his pale brow as if to brush away the idea consequent upon his words. “But thou hast my love,” she whis- pered tenderly, swaying toward him tetli'er afdé by side. “You have saved me,” she whispered. “You have drawn me back from the death that I sought. God has xlven me to you. We shall never be parted.” It was a brave speech. but he did not release his hold upon Mercedes. and in spifi) of his words when. confident that atever he might say. however he might struggle, he was hers at last. she smiled up at him again. He kissed her. “When go you to my father. Senor Alvarado?” she asked. “When he returns from the Orinoco.” “And that will not be until”â€" "Perlmps a month." “Wilt love me until then?” “I shall love thee forever.” "Nay, but wilt thou tell me so, with every day, every week, every hour, ev- ery moment, with kisses like to these?" “Oh, tempt me not!” be whispered. But he returned again and again her caresses. "Be it so. We will be happy until that time.” “One month, one month of heaven, my love. After that let come what may,” she answered, her cheeks and eyes nflame, her heart throbbing with the exquisite pain in her breast. “Ah, my Alvarado, it you have once fallen, what then? Is not one kiss as bad as a thousand?” “Some one approaches!” he said at last. And at the same moment the rest of the party came around the bend of the road. The poor duenna was con- sumed with anxiety and remorse. “Bernardo.” said Alvarado to the ser- geant, “we will take our siesta here. Unsaddle the horses and prepare the noonday meal under the trees. Send one of the troopers ahead to bid Fa- drlqne stop on the road until we rejoin him, keeping good guard. Senora Aga- pida, you must be tired from the long ride. Let me assist you to dismount.” “The Senorita Mercedes ‘2” she asked as he lifted her to the ground. “Where u her horse?” “He slipped and fell,” answered the girl promptly. “Fell?” “Yes; over the cliff. Captain Alvara- do litted me from the saddle just in time.” “I shall make a novena of devotion to St. Jago for thy preservation, sweet Mercedes,” cried the duenna, “and you, young sir, must have a strong arm”â€" “It is ever at your service,” answer- ed Alvarado gravely, bowing before The old woman’s heart went out to the gallant young man, so handsome, so brave, so strong, so distinguished looking. “Why,” she mused under her breath, “could he not have been the one?" By this time the little place was filled with soldiers, attendants and male teem.

Alva- rado had made a faint effort to go apart and leave Mercedes to herself, but with passionate determination she had refused to allow it. She had thrown prudence to the winds. Careless of whoever might see. of whoever might comment, heedless of the reproving duenna, indifferent to ancient practice, reckless of curlous glances, she had in- sisted upon accompanying the captain, turned hither and thither he was fol- lowed in all his movements hy the love- ly eyes of the woman who had broken him and who had won him. and tolerate it for a long time.

They wandered away from the others and by the side of the brook beneath the shelter of the trees remained together and whisper- and he had yielded. ed all the love that bout within their freed breasts. They mt‘:ht die tomor- row; today they lived and loved. Fain would they have prolonged the Elysian dream forever, but the descending sun of the afternoon at last warned Alva- rado it they would reach La Guayra that night they must resume their jour- ney. Reiuctantly he gave the order to mount. This time, utterly indiflerent to the Senora Agapida, Mercedes, mounted on one of the led horses, rode openly by Alvarado’s side. Sustained by his pres- ence, constantly in touch with him, she made the way down the dimcult wan- derings ot the rocky mountain trail. They watched the sun set in all its glo- ry over the tropic sea. The evening breeze blew softly about them, riding side by side. Then the night fell upon them. Over them blazed the glorious canopy of the tropic stars, chief among them the fiery Southern Cross, emblem of the faith they cherished, the most marvelous diadem in the heavens. There below them twinkied the lights of La Guayra. The road grew broader and smoother now. It was almost at the level of the beach. They would have to pass through the town present- ly and thence up a steep rocky road which wound around the mountain un- til they surmounted the cliff back of the city and arrived at the palace of the governor upon the hillside, where Mercedes was to lodge. An hour would bring them to their destination. There was nothing to apprehend. The brig- ands in the fastnesses of the moun- tains or the savages. who sometimes strayed along the road, never ventured so near the town. Fadrique, by Alvarado’s orders, had fallen back nearer the main body, so as to be within call. “We shall be there in a little while. See yonder the lights of the town." said the captain. “While thou art with me,” said the gin, “it matters little where we are. There are but two places in the world now”â€" “And those are '3” “Where thou art and where thou art not. If I may only be with thee, it we may be together, I want nothing else.” She had scarcely spoken before the sound of a cry, followed by a shot. broke on the night. 0d Tea We Positively Guarantee v Mallory.

HE terrific impact of the huge ship on the sand among the breakers, which thundered and beat upon her sides with over- whelming force, came just in the nick of time for Morgan. Had the disaster been delayed a second longer the furl- ous buccaneers would have cut him down where he stood. Even the Ohio cers were angered beyond measure at him for their present situation, which threatened the loss of the vast treasure already gained in the ship, although they had consented to Morgan’s prop- osition to attack La Guayra and Ca racas, and the captain was in no way responsible for the storm and the wreck which jeoparded their booty and their future. "hei'efore it is probable that none of them, unless it were Teach, would have interfered to save Morgan, and he would have been swept from his feet by the savage men and instantly killed in spite of all that he or Carib or any one else could have done. But the violence of the shock when the ship took ground threw them to the deck, and they forgot for the instant their bloody purpose of vengeance in the inevitableness of their approaching danger. They were checked in their mad anger for a few seconds and given a moment for reflection. That moment convinced them that they could not yet dispense with the services of their cap- tain. With black rage and white fear striving for mastery in their hearts, they rose to their feet and confronted him with menacing faces and threaten- ing gestures. “What’s to be done now?” 0d one bolder than the rest. “Now’s the time,” roared the un- daunted Morgan, striving to make him- self heard by all above the thunder- ing seas, “to show your courage, lads!" “That's a brave heart!" said Morgan. “A line here!"

He had quickly observed that the force with which she had been driven on the shoals had shoved the galleon's nose firmly in the sand. She had been caught just before she took ground by a tremendous roller and had been lift- ed up and hurled far over to starboard. Although almost on her beam ends. her decks inclining landward, the strongly built ship held steady in spite of the tremendous onslaughts of the seas along her bilge. “Take heart, men!" he cried. “Ob- serve. She lies still and secure. ’Tis u stout hulk and will take a tremen- dous battering before she breaks. We may yet save ourselves." “And the treasure '1” roared one. “Aye, and the treasure." “I think the storm has about blown itself out." interposed old Hornigoid.
