While the revolution that brought in- dependence to Cuba was brewing the government of Spain through the gov- ‘ ernor of the island used every effort to secure the adhesion of prominent Cubans. Among those whom it was deemed desirable to win over was a lawyer named Enrique Fernandez, who was becoming prominent in his motes: sion. One Jose Molina was summon- ed one day before Captain General Weyler and ordered either to win Fer- nandez by argument or bribery or force. Weyler at the time had unlim- ited power, and his orders were not to , he disobeyed. - A. A .w w“ â€" ;ersuasighQ The Eather therefore held a private interview with her, at which he said: “My child, I have been ordered by the captain general to bring Senor Fernandez to the support of the Span- ish cause either by argument or force. I have tried the former and failed. The latter course remains. 1 must tell my guest that the Spanish government demands his adhesion or his life. At times a woman may accomplish by per- suasion What a man cannot efifect by argument. If you could win over Se nor Fernandez you might save his life." “But, rather,” asked Rosa “why are you obliged _to do this w’ork?’ - â€"-LA‘-A‘ \n “Genexal Weyler is an autocrat Cuba. He may send me to prison to death Whichever he chooses.” Tâ€"hâ€"e girl paled. She did DC for some time. Then she said: O‘l- wvâ€"v “Do yoxi “1811 me to win Senor Fer- nandez‘s adhesion to the crown by first Winning his love?” A‘ .- “I do not. I would rather suffer than have you do anything dishonorable.” -_.J Huvvdv Again there was a silence. at the end of which Rosa threw her arms about her father's neck and assured him that she would do anything honorable to save him from the consequences of failure. -‘ - ‘Câ€" ‘w . What made this duty odious to Rosa Molina was that she was heart and soul for the cause of Cuba. One morn- ing she sat on the veranda of her home with Fernandez and began to reason with him why he should embrace the cause of Spain. He listened to her while she spoke hesitatingly and with- out animation. and when she came to j a halt he said: ‘ “Tell me the truth. Your heart is not with Spain; it is with Cuba. There is some reason why you are endeavor- ing to win me to a cause with which you do not sympathize yourself.” Rosa did not dare tell him what he wished to know. If she should do so he might betake himself beyond her father’s reach, and the latter would have to suffer for his failure. She would not tell an untruth. Rising from her seat. she went into the house. leav- ing Fernandez wondering what all this meant. ' ’ Senorita Molina sought her father ‘ and told him that she had tried to in- ‘ ‘ L- | on 1.) unwan- '- Senorita Molina sought her father and told him that she had tried to in- fluence Fernandez, but had failed be- . cause she was unfitted to plead a cause to which she was bitterly oppos- ed. Molina sighed, but the sigh wasl his only reply. Rosa was much trou- ‘ bled. She asked him many questions. If he reported a failure to the governor would he be imprisoned? What would be her next move in respect to Fernan- dez? What did General Weyler mean by using force to secure the latter’s adhesion? She received no reply. Whether her father was himself un- certain in regard to these matters she did not know. The only information she received was that either her fa- ther or Fernandez must suffer. AA_‘D “JUL Vh â€" vâ€"__v___ _, Rosa left her father to shut herself} up in her room that she might form some plan of action. Would it not be best for her to tell Fernandez of the situation and trust to him to find some way to save her father? This would be trusting too much to a man whom she had known but a short While. If he should take himself off to the revo- lutionists Rosa would feel that she had betrayed her father. I-vvâ€" U Fernandez, who suspected the source ' of this pressure which had been brought to bear upon him, would have departed had he not been interested in these persons who he believed were made the unwilling tools of the Span-‘ ish government. More than this. he was powerfully drawn toward Rosa. It occurred to him to pretend to be uncertain as to which cause he would espouse in order that he might gain time for observation in the hope that he would be able to solve the mystery. So long as there was any hope of a willing surrender there was no reason to use force. and day after day passed with no change in the situation. not speak KEan'wHfle the attorney was falling in ‘0"? With Rosa Molina. Neverthe- less he could see no evidence that she .'egarded him in the same light.‘ For some reason unknown to him she seemed to look upon him with a sort of dread. One day be said to her: 4“ Ol‘ of dread. One day he said to her: “Senorita. you and your father have some interest in wishing me to sup- ‘ [3011' the Spanish government. To con- “ vince you that you can safely confide in me I will tell you something which you do not suspect. I love you. Tell me the source of your efforts to con- vert me to a cause that you not ap- prove. I swear to you not only on the honor or a gentleman. but as one who. loves you. that 1 will not betray you; that it either you or your father or 1 must suffer it shall be I.” Rosa at this avowal gave a quick 8389. and an expression of pain cross. ' ed her face. â€"â€" - . .c 4-... v“ “V- -“‘v- “You have only added to the com- plication that besets us all." she said. “It I could assure you that your love was returned it might simplify mat- ters. for we might then come to a mu- tual understanding. As it is, to tell you what threatens us would be to in- vite a sacrifice on your part without JV“ IV uuv vâ€"â€"â€"â€"- Vite a sacrifice on your part without being able to reward you for making it. It you have seen anything in me to warrant your avowal you have been mistaken.” “I have seen nothing to warrant an avowal, and I am not surprised to re- ceive an unfavorable response. I have made my confession that you may un- derstand that you have nothing to fear from meâ€"that my life is at your serv- ice.” Naturally these words had a power- ful effect upon Rosa Molina. She fix- ed her gaze on the speaker with an ex- pression that it was difficult for him to interpret. It seemed to be a min gling of awe and reverence. But there was no love in it. After thus looking intently at him for a few moments she said: “Leave me to think over all this. So many strange things have followed upon one another so closely that I am bewildered.” Meanwhile Senor Molina was acting irrespective of anything that was tak- ing place between these two. Weylet had become impatient and given him a definite and imperative order. One morning Molina summoned Fernandez into his private room and said to him: “Senor, the 'ovelument demands your influence and your efforts to as- sist in putting down this rebellion wn-vv â€" against: the authority of the king of Spain.” “And what if I refuse?" “You will pass into the hands of the governor general. I cannot answer for your life." ‘ ‘V_A_L vâ€"- ' “You can answer for my death. Those who go into General Weyler’s parlors never come out. You ha 'e my reply. Long live Cuba and Cuban in. dependence?’ _ ‘ ‘ 1A ‘-A___ “VLJV"'â€"vâ€" With this Fernandez turned to leave the apartment. Molina stopped him. 1 "You cannot leave this house.” “Why not ‘2" “It is surrounded by Spanish "sol- diers.” Fernandez paused. He had been has- ty in giving a definite answer. “Am I to be taken from here imme- diately?" he asked. “Unless you recall your reply.” “Give me time.” “My instructions are to require an answer within twenty-four hours.” “\ cry well. Before tomorrow noon I will choose bet“ eon life for Spain or death for Cuba." The Spanish fleet had been destroyed. Santiago had fallen. Cuban independ- ence had been achieved. Sutficient time had elapsed for the Pearl of the An- tilles to become the pearl of her own? people. Enrique Fernandez was now a judge on the bench. Quite often it was his duty to pass upon a matter arising from the antagonism existing between Cuban liberators' and Spanish adherents during the revolution. A man whose hair was prematurely white was brought before the judge on a charge of having legally executed a man by order of the king of Spain. The culprit was supported by his daughter. who was doing all in her . power to encourage him. I “Jose Molina.” said the judge, “do you remember me?” “I (100” “When last we met you demanded my life.
