The ooun '' try is very picturesque and wild in this mountainous part of Andalusia, and it is very thinly populated, but the little vil lage of baliinua nestled there contented ly, as if wishing to be shielded from the hot winds of Africa in August or the cold ones coming from the Pyrenees in January. Saldana people were in general very cbeerfni, polite and sociable to any trangerwho by chance strayed among their wilds, but now the village wears a mournful aspect. The streets are de- eerted, the houses, clean and neat as ., "little 6ilver cups," have their ever hos pitable doors closed. Once in awhile a woman is seen on the Btreet going quick ly on some errand, and returning imme diately with all possible speed to her home. . , The reason for this ifarmwrinn nn. that the Carlist war was waging hotly in Spain, and the day before news had reached Saldana that Carlist detach ment composed of the fierce northern Basques, followers of Don Carlos, was 4proaebing the little town. All the able men of Saldanahad joined a small company of the royal army and wero concea!"d about in the mountains, from whence they expected to surpriao the Carlisle, to whom this part of the country was unknown. " About noon of the day after the news was received, Petrona, wife of Juan Alvarez, tae carpenter of the village, called Gloria, her eldest daughter, a fjrettV 15-vear-nld e-irl with riovlr hair and big, black eyes, and putting in uer nanus a targe Basket, said: "Go. child, to La Oiinhnufo something to eat to your poor father and urouier anu iaae care that no reprobate vurusE sees yon. - , Gloria took the basket and briskly ncui, uu ner way witnout misgivings, for no Carlist had as vet been seen near Baldana. She had walked about a mile rrom ner home by a path cut into the rock when the song that came so merrily from her lips stopped suddenly, for on reaching a big rock which marked the half way between Saldana and La Que brada an unseen person cried to her: "Halt!" Mechanically Gloria paused on her way and looked around her. As if by magic she saw herself surrounded by many soldiers on horseback, and this was not the worst she recognized by the uniforms and colors that they were followers of Don Carlos the Pretender. One of the men, who seemed to be their leader, approached her and asked: "Where are yon going!" The poor child was so frightened that she burst into tears. The officer dismounted. "Let me see wtyf yon have in that basket." he said. 'AM' 'Hiat lsgood. We have not had am it? ,o comi for i t eggs, brc (, , J jt, fruit. Now, my dear, yon were t Jing these provisions to some royalist! concealed about these mountains, Were younot? Now, tell me where they are." : ' Poor Gloria knew that if she told him the place of their concealment all the soldiers would be slain, including her fa ther and brother, for thenumber of Carl ists was so much larger than the royal ists. In her fright she thought their number reached many thousands, On the other hand, if she refused to tell Where the royalist soldiers were, she was sure these monsters would kill her. Vbo commanding officer took the bas , keis Dm her arm and gave it to one of Idiom, then said in his strong, rtu6irn,accent: "re, (fr were taking food dliere.

The Basque eyed her suspiciously and asked: "Are we near their campr "1 do not know. I have lost my way." "You he, girl!'' shouted the man furi ously, shaking her roughly by the arm. "You have purposely misled us, and taken us miles from them. Now, for the last time I'll give you one more cluiuce. "VTill you lead us to where tne royalist soldiers aref Gloria raised her beautiful eyes to the man s lace, eyes that at this moment were more angelic than human, and without faltering said in a low voice: "No, senor." "You little devil!" 'roared the man, now possessed of an uncontrollable fury, 'Til teach you to fool me like this.

There are no crneler or bloodier wars than those Waired between hmfhom aJ in this Carlist war both parties com mitted some acts that make those who hear of them wonder if the wretches who were guilty of those atrocities were human beings or wild beasts. Pale as death and trembling lay poor Gloria at the feet of this human tiger. Her lips moved. Perhaps she was re peating the prayers taught her by her mother. Still not a tear dimmed the soft luster of her eyes. "Do you see that precipice? It is very deen. If vnn dn tint toll mo 1 mill you over there, tied hand and foot as you are now. i on will die a horri ble death. Only one thing will save you. Now tell me where the enemy is camped." "I cannot, senor." There was a wild cry that the Carlist officer would hear until the day of his death, and then, after a few minutes of complete silence, the captain gave the order to march forward to find a camp for the night. Not for the world would he have passed the night there.
