can be snatched away; a ring not and with
a movement of the fingers to the lips, one is
free. Ah! he was a man, that Araqnil.
One day this handsome fellow of 23, who
bad been" loved without loving anyone,
met, at the rouiena of Loyola, on Easter
Monday, a pretty girl whom he invited, like
the others, to take a turn in the dance with
him. It was Pepa Chegaray. A waltzjinel
ody turns young people's heads somewhat,
and the guitarero, at least in my opinion, is
the grand master ol love. Xeither Juan
nor Pepa was to forget this first interiew,
this dance in the open air, the music ac
companying the smiles, and the song, more
intoxicating than our cider:
At morning there rises a beautiful star.
'Tis said, the most beautltul in the sky.
Bat on ?artb, O my loe, there is one more
brilliant.
Which lias not its equal In the sky.
And to that one see- my heart
As water runs toward t!ic vale.
Since that Easter Monday, Juan Araquil,
usually so gay, had grown fierce, very
gloomy, speaking little, and old Tiburcio
Chegaray, down there, rarely smiled now.
The imp Love had been patsmg by.
Oh! a love complete, absolute, rapid as
lightning. There is such a thing! She
dreamt of him; he thought of nothing but
lier. He was as sad as a garden without
flowers, and love made him as cross-grained
as a snarling dog. "Win Because he had
r.ot a douro in his pocket, and Pepa was
rich, and particularly because that old
Tiburcio had told his daughter that never,
never, would he give Pepa to a man whose
onlv iortune was his tennis ball.
"Cut." said Araquil one day to Chegaray,
"'Pepa loves me, she told me so."
"She told me so, too," returned the!
father.
"As for me, I adore her I am madly in
love with her. I shall kill myself it y,Su
do not give hir to me. What am I to to in
order to get her for my wile?"
"What I did mvself," concluded ,' the
farmer. "Work, and bring enouch into the
family to feed the children. I have not
toiled all my life to throw my money and
my daughter to a man who goes, from one
romeria to the other. When yon come and
tell me that you have savetf up a little
property and that you can bring your share
of bread and salt "to table.fyou shall have
Pepa, since she loves vou'
"And how much mutt I bring?" asked
Jnan.
"Two thousand douros."
That is 10,000 francs of your money.
"Two thousanjf douros!" said Araquil,
Very pale. "Vhere am I to find that?"
"I lound it in the soil," answered the
farmer. "Sc&rch !"
And Tiburcio was not one of those who.
laving spojeon, take back their word, no!
Araquil lt;n nothing to do but to kill him
self, as 16 threatened the old man he would
do, or tgtdig in order to get the money to-gethear-Pepa,
good girl, would not disobey
her Jfather; but, beins very much in love
TvilJFtbc handsome fellow, she resigned hcr-
wait until Juan had earned the por-
eiacted of him. Only, in their furtive
counters, or their interviews in the old
s presence, sne aid not conceal Irom
Araquil that she entertained for him one of
those feelings which bind two beings to
gether until the last sacrament. And she
lad even sworn to him, sworn on her dead
mother's massbook, that she would never be
long to another if she could not belong to
him. Such a vow, made by a creature beau
tiful as a star in the sky, is well calculated
To make a bold man take courage. Juan said
xo himself: "Well ! yes, yes. I will get the
2,000 douros ! I do not know how I shall get
them, but I will get them !"
And the projects he revolved in his mmd,
the way he worked! He almost broke his
lead against the wall of the tennis court at
Saint Sebastian, one day when, by a single
point, he lot a game played against the
champion of Tolosa. The bets were large.
A beginning ot iortune. and by one point
one single point Araquil was beaten, and
the men ot Heruani with him! He tore his
lair, he struck his lorehead, he was mad
with anger
And he must have them, those 2,000
douros, and Pepa had said to him:
"Either life tvith vou, or with no one. Ara
quil. But I Bhall obey my father as long as
lie lives, and respect his will when he is
dead."
He had even reached the point, poor Jnan,
of thinking of some great journey. They
told mm that lar away, at La Plata, in
America, emigrant Basques sometimes made
their fortunes. Yes, sir, it appears that the
tenuis players of our country can pick up
vesetas in handfnls at Buenos Ayres. The
prcttv house which you see on the way back
to Saint Sebastian, on the right, belongs to
a young fellow o Hernani, who earned
money in that way, in the south of the New
World. If the ideaof leiving Pepa, ot not
seeing her any more, even at a distance, at
mass or at vespers, at the bull fights, even
at her window, when he passed by the farm,
Ird not got into Araquil's head, he would
r inly have gone. Yes, gone. And then,
trapper, gold-finder, at venture, lie would
lave sought, since the old man said to him:
"Search."
He would have done better than to re
main. Iu the meantime the war, the last war, set
fire there is no other word to this country,
and what 1 told you happened before Bilbao.
So, to turn to it, General Garrido, desperate,
sees this tall adventurous fellow place him
self before him, and hears him tell his story
in a couple of words; and while the ol'd
soldier oi Morocco, beaten by the Carlists,
frowns, Juan Araquil adds:
"If Zucarraga's life is worth a fortune, as
you say, General, I will have it!"
"Zucarraga's life is worth more than a
fortune," answered Garrido. "It is worth
the existence of thousands of my poor chil
dren. Zucarraga is resistance, he is the key
to Bilbao, his existence means continual
slaughter, he is everything! I have no or
ders to gi e you, you are not a soldier. But
it you do what you say, remind me of what
I have said!"
"Good!" returned Juan. "Until soon,
General!"
Old Garrido shrugged his shoulders, and,
for a moment, he wondeied if this man was
sot a spy.
An-q'uil, for his part, thought of one thing
only: Zucarraga's life was worth a fortune!
And this fortune, he only desired because it
would give him Pepa. He left Hernani,
and nothing more was heard of him for sev
eral days The General said:
"I did business with a madman."
And, wishing to surprise Zucarraga, he
made arrangements lor a night attack.
During this time Araquil was prowling
around the Carlist intrenchments, his knile
in his pocket, the knife which he could in
case of need throw like a ball or stirk into a
target at a distance; he waited, sleeping any
where in the open air until he could ap
proach Zucarraga, and rid old Garrido of
the Carlist chie. What was the existence
of this commander of partisans to him? War
with cannon, war with the knife, it is al
ways war. One has a right to kill when one
sacrifices one's li.e. Araquil reasoned thus
with himself, and watched his opportunity.
One night, when he went too near the half
demolished farm where Zuccarraga slept, a
sentiucl's ball whistled by near Araquil's
lead, so near that it took away a little of
the flesh of his left ear. He did not even
pay any attention to it, and only regretted
one thing, that the Carlist sentinel had
caught sight of him. Without that he
would have climbed the wall, sprung to
Zucatraga's side! It had all to be begun
otcr again.
Weill he would begin again the next
day. But that day was precisely the one
which Garrido nad chosen lor the night at
tack. At the (.ame hour in which old Gar
rido hurled an attacking column against
the Carlists, Juan Araquil, 1 ing in a ditch,
crouching like a beast in its lair, proposed
this time to make his way to Zucarraga, cost
what it might The first shots of the en
gagement surprised Araquil, the second
pleased him. Since thev were fighting,
Zucarraga would go out, lead his soldiers
against the foe. I: Juan could elide np to
lira it would soon be done; the knife in his
heart, and not in ambush this time, but in
open battle. Ah! Zucarraga's blood was
worth a iortune? Old Chegaray could have
his 2,000 dnuros, he should have them, and
bo much the worse for the Carlists.
They fonght desperately that night. Gar
rido's soldiers were furious, rose to the as
sault of the intrenchments at the point ol
the bayonet, ana dashed against the Carlists
whom they expected to surprise, and who
Belfto

jCSi
were ur. They cut each other's throats,
strangled each other in the black night.
Sabers pierced breasts, revolvers broke
heads. They murdered without seeing each
other. And between Spaniards, too, I re
peat; what a miserable thing 1
It lasted for a long time. At break o f
day the soldiers of the army were once more
inretreat, poor devils, and they had los;
many men in order to get that far 1 A use
less attack. A night of blood, adding one
defeat to another. Old Garrido would weep
tears of rage again, down there. The Carl
ists, on the contrary, after fighting all night,
welcomed the dawn with shouts of joy.
"Harri ! Harri !" Then, all at once, the
cries ceased, dead silence fell npon them.
They were bringing back Zucarraga, the
invincible chief, whose voice had
been heard everywhere that night repeating:
"Come! Resist! Courage, my children!"
He was wounded in the leg, the bone was
broken, they said. It was in front of the
gutted house where he usually slept. The
prisoners of the army of Madrid the Car-
lists had taken mauy during the night saw
this magnificent and proud man, pale as his
white cap, with his black beard, surrounded
by his officers. Zucarraga could no longer
stand. They held him up under the arms.
Some of his soldiers bought a stool, and he
was seated on it, his leg stretched out,
Araquil looked on.
Taken with Garrido's soldiers, he had
been kept in their midst, and Carlist senti
nels watched him with the others, gun in
hand. His knife, his famous knife, had not
been of any use to him. Seeing himself
taken, drawn into the defeat, surrounded
with the other prisoners, he threw it away,
eaying to himself: "It will be for another
time!" And now, probably destined to be
shot, since he alone among the prisoners
had no uniform, he told himself that it was
over, and that Pepa would marry another,
ordieamaid. And bis eyes, full of anger,
turned to the prey which was escaping him,
this Zucarraga, whom he began to hate, he
did not know why or rather, because
Zucarraga living, meant his own life spoilt,
Pepa lost
The Carlist officersmoved uneasily around
Zucarraga. Some, on their knees, looked at
the wound. One of them called for a sur
geon. "The surgeon! The surgeon, valgame
Dios! Where can Urrabieta be? Where is
he?"
It was the surgeon of the Carlist detach
ment. They searched for him everywhere.
The officers grew impatient. Zucarraga,
smiling, very gentle, making a sign with
his hand, was saying: "Wait. Perhaps
Urrabieta has fallen asleep. He must have
had so much work to do last night!" All
at once a sergeant hastened forward, going
toward the officers, with tears in his eyes,
very pale. They had just found Urrabieta,
the surgeon, among the dead, lying, struck
bv a bullet, on the body of a Uavarrese to
whom he was attending". It had happened
during the night, like everything else. A.
ball gone wrong. Those bits of lead kill
those who nurse as well as those who cut
throats.
Then a feeling of despair aroie among the
Carlists. Zucarraga's wound might be se
rions: it was serious. And no surgeon to
attend to it! It would be dangerous to wait
until those from the neighboring army corps
could be called. One of the officers walked
straight up to the prisoners and asked, Tery
loud:
"Is there a surgeon among you?"
Garrido's soldiers looked at each other.
Xo, there was no surgeon. They were all
soldiers.
"So one who can dress a wound?"
Tcs" a man answered, "L"
"Come forward!"
A man left the crowd of poor, dispirited
men, some of them wounded. He c me for
ward, his head raised. It was Araquil.
"You are not a soldier?" asked the officer.
"Xo."
"Why are you here?"
"Because "they put me here. I do not
fight I wanted to go to Bilbao to see ray
people. The battle prevented me from pass
ing. That is all!"
"And you know something of medicine?"
"Xo. But I can cure. I am something
of a torero at timet."
The officer, distrustful, made Araquil go
forward to Zucarraga, who raised his large
black eyes to lhe handsome young lellow.
Then the Carlist chief asked for an explana
tion. Araquil invented n story: He was
eager to embrace his old parents, shut up in
Bilbao. It was not his fault if civil war
separated families like that. He went on,
through the firing, continuing the tale of his
li.'e.
"You are a Basque. Whv are you not
with the legitimate Pretender?" asted Zuc
arraga in his turn.
"Because I am with no one."
The Carlist officers were examining,
scrutinizing, this tall fellow with some sus
picion. The reply drew murmurs from
them. Zucarraga put an end to them.
"Every one is free,'"eaid he softly.
Then, Lis clear gaze sinking into Juan's
eyes:
"You say that you can cure? Can vou
even relieve the pain a little? I am suffer
ing a great deal."
He showed his naked leg, spotted with
red, beneath the trousers, rolled back and
soaked with blood.
Araquil took off his Test, roughly tore the
right sleeve of his shirt, and. on this impro
vised bandage he poured, slowly, without
being seen, while handling the piece of
linen, a few drops of liquid that which he
kept on his finger, in his ring then, livid,
he'took two steps toward Zucarraga, who had
not removed his eyes from him for an instant.
Araquil's hand did not tremble as he held
this cloth impregnated with a small yellow
spot. As he was about to kneel down before
Zucarraga to dress the wound, one of the
officers said to the Carlist chief:
"We do not know this man."
"That is true. But one knows neither the
doctor nor the confessor."
And he held out his wounded leg to Juan
Araquil with an effort.
"But that yellow spot?" asked a cap
tain. "A remedy of mine against the wounds of
the corrida," said Juan.
"Go on!"
Zucarraga's large black eyes did not leave
those of Juan during the whole of the opera
tion, and the linen was hardly bound
around the wound before the partisan said:
"I already feel better."
Then to Juan: "Now you are free."
"But, General ," interposed an officer.
Zucarraga raised his head.
"It is certainly the least I can do, sir, to
render this brave fellow service for ser
vice." And speaking to Araquil:
"What else do you want?"
"Nothing," said the other.
Zuccaraga drew from the pocket of his
tunic a little cigarette case of Manilla straw
and held it out to Juan.
"In remembrance of me!"
"Xo," said Juan.
"Ah! " and Zucarraga smiled "I fear
you have no great affection for the servants
of Don Carlos. You will take nothing from
me?"
"Yes, a cigarette."
Araqnil took a papelito from the cigarette
case and looked at it mechanically, rolling
it between his fingers befor putting it in his
pocket, when Zucarraga asked him:
"Your name?"
"Juan Araquil."
"Very well, Araquil, go with God! And
wait, to see your people, until we enter Bil
bao. It will not be long. Give me vour
hand." J
Araquil, very pale, clasped the hand held
out to him by the wounded man, put on his
vest again, and erect, saluting the officers
and the prisoners, he retired very slowly,
still followed by the clear gaze of the Carlist
hero.
That same evening, at Hernani, in the
little room of the inn which served him as
headquarters, old Garrido saw enter, brought
by the soldiers, the tall young man who had
suoken to him six days before, in the square
of the Ayuntamiento.
The General was furious, ill, almost
apoplectic, talking, since the defeat of the
previous night, of blowing out his brains.
He received Araquil like a dog.
"What do you want? Who can tell
me that you didx not warn those miserable
Carlists?"
"What I want. General? I want to speak
to you to you alone! Yes. alone!"
And the fellow said it in so decided a tone
that old Garrido divined something serious,
and signed to his officers to leave him alone
with the man.
"Well! what is il?" said he, when they
were alone, as Juan had requested.
Araquil waited a moment before speak
ing, as if his tongue were dry, then, sud
denly: "You said. General, that Zucarraga's life
was worth a fortune? "
And as Garrido did not answer:
"I have come to claim this fortune; I have
earned it!"
The General looked at him, frowning,
asking himself if he had heard aright, and
Araquil remained there, standing before
him, very pale.
"How earned?" asked Garrido after a
moment "I do not understand."
"Yet it is simple," answered Juan,
"Zucarraga will never again give the order
to fire on vour soldiers."
"He.is dead?"
"He ought to be. If it is not alLover this
evening it will be to-morrow.
Old Garrido was much agitated, his face
was as white as his mustiche. He wished
to know everything, not understanding Ara
quil's "it will be to-morrow," and the young
in, in told him how he had watched the Car
list chief, how he had wanted to bury his
knife in his heart, and how, finally, he had
poured on the wounded man's leg.the poison
in the ring in which he kept for himself.
It seemed to the General that he was suffo
cating, haunted bv a nightmare. His black
eyes burned like fire in his white face. He
contented himself with repeating: "You
did that? You did that? A wounded man?"
Then Juan, speaking like a madman, be
gan to say that he would have done much
more in order to win Pepa, and as old
Chegaray demanded 2,000 douros as his por
tion, he had taken those 2,000 douros where
he could find them. Beside, the General
had said that Zucarraga had caused the
death of hundreds and hundreds of men,
and brave men, too.
"In battle, ves!" said Garrido, roughly,
"in battle."
But that was no reason for Araquil the
only reason for what he had done was his
passion for Pepa. He wanted Pepa. Zu
carraga's life would give her to him. It was
well. That was all. Garrido had promised;
Araquil was there to claim the debt.
The General said:
"It is true."
He asked where Pepa lived, called an
aide-de-camp, dictated the address to him,
and pointing to Araquil:
"You will lodge this man in the Fonda
del Sol. To-morrow you will inform the
chaplain. Yes, for a marriage! Go!"
The time seemed long to Juan, who passed
the night in the Fonda, which had been
turned into a guardhouse. A night, a long
night, with the barking of dogs in the dis
tance howls which suggest death and the
sound of firearms, far away, near the Carlist
outposts.
At dawn he fell into a light sleep, dream
ing of Pepa, and in his dream placing pieces
of gold into old Chegaray's thin hand, a liv
ing girl's dowry, the price of a corpse.
It was broad daylight when a detachment
of soldiers commanded by a sergeant came
to fetch Jnan. The General wanted him. Be
yond that the sergeant did not answer Ara
quil's questions. They went up the largest
street of Hernani, the lane, with crowded
houses, with ancient battlements sculptured
in the sandstone of the walls, and arabesques,
blue and yellow, which you thought so pretty
just now, there they stopped in the square.
Supeib weather, with glorious sunshine,
smiling on the red walls of the church, and
the broken sides, black from fire, of the town
hall. The tquare was full of people; sol
diers were drawn up there, and near the
steps of the church stood Garrido, in full
uni orni his officers rouud him. A little
lurther oil, beautiful as a saint in the black
veils of her holiday costume, was Pepa, with
old Chegaray beside her.
Araquil saw it ail at a glance; the assem
bled troops, with their bayonets gleaming
in the sun. the General, the beautiful girl,
and through the wide doors of the church, a
glowing chapel, the great chapel, dazzling
with light and gold.
He was led belore Garrido.
Araquil threw anxious looks at Pepa, and
she contemplated him with a strange ex
pression in her dark eyes, beneath the
shadow of her lashes. It seemed to Juan
that the gilt-edged prayer book which she
held between her fingers, the book on which
she had sworn to be his wife, trembled in
her black-gloved bauds.
The General said:
"Let the priest come."
The priest appeared on the stone steps, as
if he had been awaiting the General's order.
A priest, in a white cope, who pansed on
the threshold, motionless as a statue while
theheavy campauile bells with their cannon
shaped mouths, gaily struck up the holiday
music, the cay song of weddings aud of jov!
"Tiburcia Chegaray." said the Genera').
addressing the old farmer, "here is Juan
Araquil, who. as a marriage portion, brings
the 2,000 douros, demanded by you in re
turn lor your daughter. What is promised
is due. Do you consent to the marriage of
Juan Araquil with your child?"
Old Chegaray answered in a hoarse voice:
"Yes."
"Juan Araquil," said Garrido, "do you
consent to take Pepa Chegaray for your
wife?"
"Yes," said Juan in an ardent voire.
He had thrown all his lire into that "Yes."
The priest waited, ready to bless them.
"Pepa Chegaray," asked Garrido, turn
ing to the young woman, "do you consent
to take Juan Araquil, here present, for your
husband.
Pepa took two steps toward Jnan, raised
her beautiful black eyes to lis face and an
swered: "Xo!"
Among the crowd, there arose a terrible
clamor. The soldiers, motionless, looked on.
"Xo!" repeated the young girl, raising
her voice. "I swore to belong to no one but
you, and, having sworn it, I will belong
to no one. But I will not belong to a
coward!"
Juan Araquil had the expression of a
madman as he looked at her, haggard, white
as the priest's cope. Far away, very far
away, fiom the bottom of the valley, the
gloomy tolling of a bell, the sound of the
passing-bell, moaning for the dead, could
be heard rising now, rising sadly, on the
other side of the hills . They were
ringing the knell for the dying, were the
Carlists, and the poison was doing its work.
And little by little, as if they, in their
turn, had saluted the dying man, the bells
of Hernani became silent, nothing being
heard but the sound of the distant passing
bell .
Then all of a sudden that stopped, too,
and in the square full of people all was still,
as if a wind had blown over their heads the
news that everything was finished, over
there.
"Zucarraga is dead!" said old Garrido.
Araquil looked ardently at Pepa, entreat
ing her to read bis thoughts.
"It was for you! It was for you!" said he
fiercely.
Pepa turned away her head.
Then the General said coldly to Juan:
"Araquil, what do you wish to be done
with jour 2,000 douros?"
"The money?"
Araquil had understood.
"Let it be giyen to the poor. I do not
even wish for a cross in the graveyard."
He added, ointiug to the company which
had escorted him:
"That is for me, is it not?"
"Araquil, one does not kill a soldier with
poison," answered Garrido. Then Juan
Araquil made the sign of the cross, knelt
before the priest, and said aloud: "God
have mercy on me!"
The bells of Hernani were ringing the
knell of the dead also now, like those in the
plain at the foot of the hill of Santa Bar
bara. Juan rose, took from his vest pocket a
cigarette, Zucarraga's cigarette, and asked
the sergeant for a light The papelito
lighted, he raised it to his lips, saluted with
a last look Pepa, who moved as if to go to
him, but stopped and remained motionless,
and the tall young lellow, smiling sadly,
raised his head and disappeared amidst the
surrounding soldiers to whom Garrido made
a sign.
Then Pepa turned, trying to see him, to
see him once more; she could perceive noth
ing amid the circle of glistening rifles, be
side a little blue smoke, which rose aDove
the heads, in the gleam of the bayonets, and
was lost in the clear sky.
And in the church the chanting began,
prayers were said, while over there, by that
reddish wall in the sun, Juan Araquil
breathed the last puff of his cigarette.
Then, through the intense, death-like si
lence, which reigned in the square, Pepa
heard a distant order, aud the clanging of
arms, then the word: "Fire!" reached her
distinctly.
She fell on her knees, crushed, beginning
in a Joud voice: "Our Father which art in
heaven "
But the discharge which followed cut
short her prayer.
Juan Araquil, who was standing against
the presbytery wall, his breast covered with
blood, fell at the same time, with his face
to the ground.
When the sergeant approached the body
to give him the finishing shot, the cigarette
which Juan held in his fingers Zucarraga's
cigarette! still sent up a slender thread of
smoke, and this smoke survived Zucarraga
the hero, and Araquil the murderer.
