Say, what is honor? 'Us the finest sense
justice which the human mind can frame."
The keenest sufferings entailed by
war are not on the hattle-field,-nor in
the hospital. They are in the house-
hold., There are the maimed affections,
the slain hopes, the broker ties of love.
And before a shot had hail' fired in the
War of Texan independence, the battle
had begun . in Robert 'Worth's house-

Nor were the military by any Means

well knowonthat a large proportion of

attacked,Sin Antonio, they would re-
ceive active sympathy. Party feeling
was no longer controllable. Men sus-
pected.each other. Duels were of con-
stant (mummer, and families were torn
to pieces; forthe monks supported Santa
Anna with all their influence,. and there
were few,women who dared to disobey
them. - •
*Into -the midst of this turbulent,
touchy conimunity, there fell one morn-
ing word or two which set it OD fire.
Doctor Worth was talking on the Plaza
with Senor Lopez Navarro. • .A 'Mexican
soldier, with his yellow cloak streaming
out behind him, galloped-madly6wards
the Alamo and left te news there. It
spread like wildfire. "There had been
a fight at GonzaleS, and, the Americans
had kept their atms. 'Thhy- had also
put the Mexicans to flight."

• coining up to the group of which Robert
Worth was one, Stephen Austin has
escaped, and he arrived at ‘Gonzales at
-the ,very moment of victory. - And more
yet, Americans are pouring into Gond
isles from every quarter."
• An officer tapped Doctor- Worth on
the 'shoulder. Senor Doctor, your
'arms. General Cos hopes, in the pre-
sent extremity, you will set an example
of obedient:8.! • '
"1 will not give' up My arms. In the
present extremity my. arms are the
greatest need r have.' .
"Then Senor, -it is a g rest affliction
to Me -I must arrest you."
He was led away, -amid the audible
=MMUS of the men who filled the
streets. There needed but some one to
have said the word, and they would,
have taken him forcibly from the
military. A great crowd -followed hint
-
to the gates of the Alamo.. For there
was scarcely a family in San Antonio
of which this good -doctor was not an
adopted member. The arrest of their
fevorite confessor would hardly have
enraged them more. -
Fray' Ignatius brought the news to
the Senora. Even - he was affected by
it. Never before had Antonia seen him
weak except with thoughtful and delib-
erate steps. She wondered at hiei
pearance ; at its suppressed hurry ;at a
something init which struck her as
suppressed satisfaction.
And the priest was in his hea• rt satis-
fied ; though he WAS consciously telling*
himself that "he Was sorry for the
Senora, and that he wonld have been
'glad if the sins of her bushEind could
have been set' against , the works of
supererogation which the saints of his
own convent had amassed."
"But he is an infidel : he believes not
in the saints," he muttered, "then how
conic' they avail him !"
Antonia Met him at the do*. He
-said an Ave- Maria as he orossed '• the
threshold, and gave her his hand to
kin, She booked wonderingly in his
face, for, unless it was a special visit, he
never called ab near the Angelus. Still,
it is difficult to 'throw off a habit of
obedience formed in early youth; and
she did not feel as if she could break
through the chili atmosphere of the man
apd ask : "For what reason have you
onine, Whin'?"
- A long, shrill shriek from the Senora,
was the first answer to the fearful ques-
tion in her heart. In a few, moments -
she was at her mother's _.-door. Rechela
knelt outside it, telling her reentry. She
stolidly kept her place, and a certain in-
stinct for a moment Imp/anted Antonia
interrupting her. But the -passionate
words of her mother, blending with the
measured tones of the priest,* were
something far more positive. ,
"Let me pass you, Raohela. What is
the matter with my mother ?"
The woman was absorbed in her, sup-
plications and- Antonia opened the door.
Isabel followed her. They found them-
selves in the presence of an angry sor-
row that appalled thein. The Senora
had torn her lace , Mantilla:into shreds,
and they were scattered over the room
as she had flung them from her hands in
her frantic walk about it.. The large
obeli comb that confined her hair was
trodden to pieces, and its long coils had
fallen about he face and shoulders.
Her bracelets, her chain of gold, her
brooch and rings vide scattered on :the
floor, and she was standing in the centre
of it, like an enraged creature ;- tearing
her handkerchief- -into strips, as an
emphasis to her passionate denuncia-
tions.
"It Berms him right! Jesus! Maria!
Joseph! It serves him right! He must
carry arms ! He,
too! when it was for-
bidden ! I am glad he is arrested! Oh,
Roberto ! Roberto !"
"Patience, my daughter! This is the
