to which city Morgan is attracted by
Donna Mercedes de Lara, daughter of
the viceroy ot Venezuela.
The poniard fell from her band.
••Thou hast taken me: 1 thank thee.*'

"And i* this the honor of Captain

viceroy entered tTit* room "my officer
in whom I trusted? Death and fury!
Donna Mercedes, what do you lute':"
"The fault Is mine," said Alvarado,
stepping between the woman he loved
and her Infuriated father. "I found
Donna Mercedes In jiie cabinet when
I came in. She strove to fly. I de
tained her 1»y force. I poured intc
her ear a tale of my guilty passion.
.Mine is the fault. She repulsed me
She drove me off."
"The dagger at your feet?"
"She snatched it from me anil swore
to bury It in her heart unless I left
her. 1 alone am guilty."
"Thou villain! Thou false friend!"
shouted tiie viceroy, whipping out his
sword. He was beside himself with
fury, hut there was a characteristic
touch of magnanimity about his next
action. So handsome, so splendid, Sfl
noble, in spite of his degrading con
Cession, did the young man look that
he gave him a chance.
"Draw your sword. Captain Alva
rado. for as I live 1 shall run you
through!"
Aivarado's hand went to his belt:
he unclasped it and threw it aside.
"There lies my sword. 1 am dishon
ored," he cried. "Strike and end it
all!"
"Not so!" screamed Mercedes, wh<i
had heard as it* in a daze. "He hath
not told the truth. He hath lied for
me. I alone am guilty. I heard him
praying here in the still night, and I

his arms. 1 begged him to take nn
away. He spoke of his love and
friendship for you. for Hon Felipe, his
honor, his duty. 1 did indeed seize the
dagger, but because though he loved
me he would still be true. On my
head be the shame. Honor this gen
tleman, my father, as I- love him."
She tiling herself at her father's feet
and caught his hand.
"I love him!" she sobbed. "I love
him!"
"Is tliis true. Captain Alvarado?"
"Would she had Dot said so." an
swered the young man gloomily.
-Is It true?"
"I cannot deny it. my lord, and yet
I am the guilty one. I was on the point
of yielding. Had you not couie in we
should have gone away."
"Yet you had refused?"
"I—l hesitated."
"Refused my daughter! And you.

"Yes. I loved him. Didst never love

"But Don Felipe?"
"Hi* is a gallant gentleman. I love

"Never, never!'" cried the girl.
She rose to her feet and came nearer
to him. Her father stood by as if
stunned. She laid her arms around Al

"You love me and 1 love you. vVbal

"Oh. my 1 ird. my lord." cried Al

"But love," interjected Mercedes.
"That is wanting."
"It seems so." returned the viceroy.
"And yet where duty and honor de

said the girl.
"Ton have loved iii»'." cried the young

'First kill mcl"
"and you have trusted me." bowing to
the old man. "Here are two appeals.
God help me, I cannot hesitate. Thou

" And he could promise; he could say

"Oh. my father, he loves me not! 1
