Courting in Central America. Senor Dr. Manuel Cordoba, judge of the First district of the state of Cauca, in New Grenada, prominent among the men who followed in the lead of Bolivar and after yearn of suffering and heroic endeavor finally threw off the yoke of Spain, gasped out his life blood on the bench before the earthen wall on the northern aide of what is now the Plaza of the Martyrs in the city of Santa Fe de Bogota. As one of the first of those who were captured and shot—dastard fashion—in the back by order of the tyrant Morillo he left as his legacy, first to his children and second to his countrymen, a devotion to liberty. His only son Rafael was 0 montlis old at the time, but thero was small chance that the boy should not learn the lesson of that death so long as the Senora Cordoba lived.

As ardent a patriot as her husband and worshiping his memory even as she revered that of a saint, she taught Aafael to fully realizo his father's sacrifice, and to resolve that he, too, would not bo absent when duty to his country •called the roll The boy was singularly Attractive. At school and afterward •when at college in Paris he shpwed ability of the highest order and accomplished tasks with apparent ease over which the slower intellect of his bosom friend, Jose Maria Sanchez—called Pepe by Spanish custom—labored in vain.

The love of Damon for Pythias or of David for Jonathan found itself in the feeling which existed between these ••two. Senor Don. Rafael been the friend of the dead patriot, auu after the execution was the guardian of

Ids little namesake, as well as the trustee who managed the estate of the widow. That Rafael Cordoba and Jose Maria Sanchez should play together as boys, should together ride when the cattle were branded, or sail on the same ship to complete their education in France, was natural enough, but that each should love tho other as his other self depended on something moro than this companionship. Pepe was, like his father, somewhat slow in thought and action, cautious and careful.

Life in Paris with all its joys being over tho two young men came back to New Grenada, or Colombia, as it was called by this time, to take their share in the political lifo of the country. All was turmoil. Joso Ignacio Matquez had been elected president two years before —1887—and tl»e suppression of the convents in Paato a month, before the arrival of Rafael and Pepe was the signal for the outbreak of "the revolution of the governors." Small at first, it rapidly spread under the #»ergetio leadership of Samper until the whole country was convulsed. As might be supposed from his character, Rafael Cordoba was enthusiastic over the war, and loudly dedared his intention of casting In his lot with his father's old friends in tho government no fcoon as -he shot Jd bare seen his mother. He journeyed to the stato of Cauca, found his mother on her hacienda, near the city of Cali, and— staid where he was!

The Sencrita Elodia Sanchea, Don Rafael's daughter and Pope's sister, was then 1? yeai old, of medium height and exquisitely graceful, with a wealth of hair and glorious black eyes, shaded under their long las*hes, with just that touch of color in her cheeks which makes the pure brunette so very beautiful with bands and feet like those of a child, with a trick of glancing up and revealing the depth of her great eyes, and then de* xnurely veiling them from view with a voice like soft music—was it any wooder that Rafael lost his heart aad begin to play the bear in front of Senor San' chesNi house?

For be it known that courtship in Colombia consists chiefly of silent admiration. and while the girt sits In the balcony the man stands below in the street, gating respectfully and ardently at her. Between them there is always from thirty to fifty feet of space, across which they rarely cafe to talk, a* the "whispering of love" becomes ridiculous under such circumstances. Who would desire to make a tender declaration iv the voice a Stenb*f This method of showing passion is called "playing the bear.M but why I do aot know.

It must not be imagined that Rafael coold fall so desperately in love with KkdiawiUwnt totting Pepe all abo«t it The somewhat grave Jem Maria tttad forced to listen to rhapsodies About his own sister until la troth he began to tire of them. No doubt Qodia was a good little thing aad Bepaw** food enough of her, but that she was an angel he somewhat seriously doubted. Thee, too, as there was no earthly reason why Rafael should not marry her.

The pretty comedy went on between this man and this maid, and the tragedy of the civil war deepened. Pepe wiis anxious to join the government forces, but without Rafael he never thought to leave. His father, too, scarcely approved of his going then. Senor Sanchez had not seen his only son for four years, and he may be pardoned for thinking that others might bear the burden for a time at least. Sc Rafael lived in that land of enchantment, a lovers' paradise, where the flowers take on more brilliant hues, the very air intoxicates and every one is so wonderfully pleasant, while Pepe listened eag jrly to the rumors of battles and thought deeply over what should be a man'a duty. The two were more apart than ever before in their lives. And Elodia?

I cannot tell what Elodia was thinking of, but she seemed to become more beautiful every day, and amazed her brother by her ingenuity in finding services to render hini, as well as by her eagerness to hear stories of the life in Paris. Her father noticed this latter peculiarity, smiling under his grim gray mustache with visible satisfaction, and when he rode out to the hacienda of the Senora Cor-loba one afternoon to talk over business matters he prolonged his visit somewhat, and the conversation ran to other things beside the affairs of the estate. There was an unusual fondness in the kiss which the mother gave her son that night when Rafael returned.

Duly attired in formal dreri was Pepe when, in accordance with Rafael's request, he called on his father to demand Elodia'e hand for hia friend. Ordinarily this office should have been filled by the oldest male relative of the suitor, but as all Rafael's uncles End cousins were in far off Bogota Jose Maria represented them. In formal fashion did the friei-d explain Rafael's position financially and socially, and in equally fortaal faslr-m did Rafael's guardian listen. Formal,

"tSJ ambassador all was the manner in which the two men stood during the interview. Senor Sanchez the elder was pleased to say to Senor Sanchez the younger that he would lay the subject matter of the request before the Senora Sanchez, his honored wife, and the Senorita Sanchez, his no less honored daughter, and he was also pleased to express his personal regard and respect for the Senoc Don Rafael Cordoba. He hastened t$ include in this regard ami respect "Don Rafael's representative, Senor Don Jose Maria Sanchez. Then, I am told, Senor Sanchez winked cautiously, whereat his son frowned, for Pepe does not seem to have had as strong a sense of humor as that which helped to make his father so wise and shrewd.

At any rate, the ambassador was able to inform the anxious lover that the affair was

Min

as, in tact, this marriage was tho most The father and the mother smiled at fit and proper marriage that Pepe could »ach other, and for a moment her hand imagine, he became somewhat impatient with bis friend. He offered, as Rafael had no male relations in that part of the country, to act as hia representative and to demand in his name the consent of Senor Sanchez. He could not understand his friend's hesitation and timidity, and found himself profoundly puzzled by

tbein. Rafael, as a rule, was not wont cepted suitor was to be presented to -'the family. The family were assembled in the sala, or drawing room, and

to act in this way. But when Pepe spoke to his father that wise old man advised him to let matters take their own course. "I am told, my son," he remarked quizzically, "that I enjoyed gazing at the balcony on which thy mother sat, and I conclude that folly is as sweet to Rafael Elodia took her place by her mother at as it was to me. Of course no man in the other end. A peon girl, full of supthe world would be more acceptable to pressed giggles and visible interest, me. But let them have their pleasure served cigalrs and fire to the gentlemen, while they may, and do not thou inter- and later on wine. fere. 'The young ass drinketh milk, which the old ass carettfnot for.' To thee, my son, will the time of the bear come in due season, and I know not that thou wilt be wiser than thy father So Pepe was perforce content.

progress," and then hurried

back to the house to take part in the family council at which the offer was to be considered in due and ancient manner. Present were his mother, a handsome old# lady in whose face the somewhat stern features of the son were reflected in softened fashion, his father and himself. It should net have taken them two minutes to come to that conclusion Which was foregone, but the senora wad her son debated as gravely over Rafael as they would had he been an Antioquooo. Senor Sanchez himself did not say much, but from the kindly twinkle in his eye one would have supposed he was much amused at something ________

TERKK HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAE

rested in. his. The daughter with it voice as sweet as the note of the loquieal's sunset song said, "In all things I will be obedient to my fathers will."

Duly was Rafael informed of the re-H suit and his lover's fears set at rest Duly, too, did Pepe make the appointment for that evening when the ac-

Pepe formally presented his friend to

Senor

Sanchez, the senora and the senorita. Then Rafael sat at one end of the long room talking to his guardian, while

It not being etiquette for Rafael to stay very long during this first visit, and the senora and her son being conservative folk, loving the old traditions, it was not long before the lover found himself in the street with Elodia on the low balcony above him but now, he stood where he could touch her hand and the whispers co^ld go to and fro in the perfumed stillness of the night The next day Senora Cordoba called on Senora Sanchez, and the day following the cf»H was returned. Then the engagement was announced and Rafael was at lioerty to call on Senor Sanchez every evening, and smoke in the sala while Elodia sat demurely by her mother's side and listened as she worked on her embroidery. I fancy that the later half hour, when the benevolent balcony played its part, was the sweeter to both.

The news of the war came thick and fast, and with it rumors of government disaster. Pepe could no longer be restrained, and although Rafael was in a heaven of two the calls of patriotism began to be heard. There was no opposition from his mother she looked for the glory of the father's name for her beloved son. Senor Sanchez was satisfied the boys, as he called them, should go, and although Eiodia wept when she was alone, she said no word to discourage the man of her choice. The heroic echoes of the war of independence were yet sounding loudly in the hearts of all, and she was jealous of Rafael's name. It should never be said, she thought, that he alone staid at home. So the animals were saddled,, the saddlebags packed, and accompanied by their peon servants and a fair contingent of volunteers the young men started.

In one thing Senor Sanchez had his way, and Iim wife being doprived of the accustomed support of her son had to yield. Rafael saw his betrothed alone for nearly three hours the day before he left What took place between them 1 do not know, and if I did I should think it too sacred to re]at here. When Rafael left the house, he probably knew as he never knew, before the depth of a woman's love, while Elodia went to her

room and kneeling prayed until far into the night Prayed for him wh4"^pved^

&etafgering,Qf qigars^nd^vdg^her,/prayed that h^nfight wiB.hfvjl bassador, and most formal of his duty, prayed that the bleli^ saints would care for him and protec him, prayed that whatever might come to her, to him might be given every good thing. Who shall sound the agony

of such a prayer? It was in September,!840, that'the two young men reached Bogota. The name of Manuel Cordoba was one to conjure with when heard byf»en. Herrau or Senor Mosquera, the xmnister of -v ir. and these, who had known and. loved and honored the father, welcomed Rafael warmly. Pepe, too, produced a most favorable impression, and captains' commissions were found for both within twenty-four hours. With the' deepest emotion Rafael visited the spot where his father had been murdered in the first days of the "war of extermination," and to his excited imagination' the ground on which had stood Morillo's awful bench—El Banquillo—smelled of blood as he stooped and kissed it There his father had died for liberty, and he, too, was there to give his life if need be for his country.

The work with their companies and, in fact, with themselves, left Rafael and Pepe but little time for anything but the p&par&tions for the b^tfle which was expected soon, while the military, talk

and the excitement the camp strange effect onjRafaeL Always nerv eras and enthusiastic, be seethed like a crazy man at times, and Pepe, accustomed as he was to his moods, looked at him sometimes in amazement His one desire was to fight, and of this he talked nearly all the time.'

At last the day came and with It the battle ofFuanto Grande, which practically ended the "revolution of the governors." Under Herrau the government troops marched out of Bogota to the bridge, and there after a hard fight defeated the enemy. This was on the 28th of October,

1

At his own request, preferred to Gen. Herran, Rafael had been promised a chance to lead at least one chazge if any should be made. A company of the enemy had taken up position behind a low wall, to the left as you go westward from the bridge, and from this cover were annoying the government troops with a galling fire. Gen. Hernut decided that at all cost they mnst be dModged. In their position they oould not be flanked,and there was hot one ti&tg to

When the order was given to the two yoong mm Rafael flashed with eacxtement, and wringing Pepe1* hand ordered ha men oat in front, while his leas oerrous ftriend took up a supporting position in thereat Waving Iris sword Rafael sprang'fcrwara.

The bridge he was forced to croas was incumbered with dead and dying men, and there in front ot him was the line of waB over which the white dodgs of smoke floated as the sharp crftcks of the long rifles sounded. Before him and bftyond the bridge there were ottor men dead or toning In their agony, Ashe ran forward he trod on dtaMHh&g soft, andhebeardamoan. In all the noise that

Suddenly it seemed to him that something gripped him by theiieart and the beats sounded loud in his ear. fie felt faint and sick, his throat was dry -mechanically he tried to moisten his lips. His knees seemed to bend under him he stopped short and involuntarily struck his chest with his clinched fist His men were alongside of him, one had passed him a little when he sprang up in the air and fell in a crumpled heap, sr&ter 7.

Rafael was conscious who the man was, and before his eyes he saw the hut where the dead had lived. He could see the grinding stone by the door. Others passed as he stood therein shameful trembling, and then they stopped. He knew th6y stopped because he had done so. He was acutely, horribly conscious that if h© led*these men would follow,^ and still the ghastly fear mounted him, dominating his brain and body, shaking him like an aspen leaf. More men shrieked and fell, the bullets whistled around him, and his eye fell on a breach in the bridge wall. He seemed to see Pepe coming up behind him on a run, and he heard him cry, "Art wounded, Rafael?" He knew Pepe would drag him nearer that horrible wall which vomited death, and with a cry like a wounded animal Rafael Cordoba sprang to the side of the bridge and leaped to the water below, while Pepe rallied the men and with black rage in his heart carried the enemy's position!

El Coronet Blanco.

In the court martial which was held two days after, in the absence of the coward, Rafael Cordoba was condemned to.be degraded from his rank and shot for desertion in the face of the enemy. There areno braver nor more gallant men on earth tha^ the Colombians, and^it was with an airiest sickening feeling.,-ut repulsion thayiaen who had known aiM loved his f»„her voted with tears. shameful death for that father's son. they never ex'vnted tho senteneo.

ie of the following year, the last

of the war. Col. Sanchez returned to Cali. His father met him some miles away. The shameful story had proceded him, and he heard that Senora Cordoba was dead, dead of a broken heart His father seemed to Pepe to be many years older, and strong man as 1. Sanchez was he almost feared to ask

Elodia. When at last he mentioned her name Senor Sanchez broke down. "She goes about like a ghost, my son. At first she would not believe the story. None of us believed it. How could we? But then the official bulletin came, and I saw it was true. It nearly killed me" -n. "It has n«irly killed me, my father." broke in Pepe's deep voice. "Then Senora Cordoba took to her bed and sent for the Padre Gomez. He cried like a child as he came from her. She never got tap, and we buried her. Elodia stormed about the house, declaring it was a conspiracy. She went to Senora Cordcba and never left her while she lived. Since then she has been quiet, but, oh( Pepe, she is so white and thin. It will make you cry to see her eyes.'' and the fond old man sobbed as he bent his head and murmured a prayer for his little girL

Pepe's stern face grew sterner as they rode along in silence. When they reached the house he went in, and his sister met him at the head of the stairs. He saw her, and a great wave of pity swept over him as he took her in his arms and kissed her gently. His mother would have spoken, but Pepe checked her by a look. Elodia busied herself with caring for his comfort, going about with a face that wrung the brother's heart Neither thfcn nor afterward did she ever speak of Rafael, but when, some time in the spring of '42, die declared her intention of becoming a sister of charity, and Pepe tried to dissuade her, she looked at him and said with trembling lh»: "Dost think, my brother, there is any consolation for me except from God?*

And Pepe was silent

So far as may be known, during the war in Mexico between Maximilian and Juarez, "El Conmel Blanco"—The White Colonel—fir* made hia appearance. There are rumors concerning him during the various revolutions in the Oentral and South American countries prior to this time but there is nothing certain about them that I have ever been able to learn. Sere it is that be joined the forces under Juarex, and that he cased for neither

rank

nor pay. Hi* one request was to be permitted to take part in the fighting sod to be placed where there wa* the greatest clanger. He was a man of average height, thin and worn, with deep sunken eyes, in wMrih was an «fwesnon of intense sorrowf "f

He called himself Jose Garcia, hut was much moreoften addressed as "Senor Blanco," the name given to him by the eoklierm, who were struck by the snowy whiteness of hia hair and beard. Be

was

intensely retigkms, and many spoke of him with bated breath as of a man

under a vow.^ But he was a thorough soldier, there could be no doubt of that, not only in his drill, but in his care for the welfare of his men. in his knowledge of what was needed for their health, in his sympathy with them and his willingness to spend any amount of time looking after them. And in return his men worshiped him. They \rould follow him anywhere, confident that he would lead them to victory. Twice during the war the desperate charges of his regiment turned the tide of battle. Juarez, the greatest leader in Mexican history, learned to lean on the -white haired, silent man as a sure support but when the war was over and Maximilian was dead, the White Colonel refused all the brilliant offers made to him, declined the wealth, the rank, the honors which Juarez would have heaped on him, and disappeared.

The men who banded together and sought to free Cuba from the rule of Spain had no more skillful volunteer than the thin, white haired man with the sorrowful eyes who appeared so suddenly among them. To his strategy and ability a goodly proportion of their power to keep up the long struggle was due, and he risked his life as freely as the youngest patriot there. His indeed seemed to be a charmed life death or disease stalked by and touched him not When the Cuban struggle failed, once more he disappeared, but came to the front again in the war between Peru and Chili, fighting then on the side of the Peruvians when their country was invaded. That war ended he was lost sight of until the Gaitan revolution in Colombia in 1884 and 1885. It is probable that he took part in some of the attempted rebellions against Barrios in Guatemala, but I have no information of this kind. No one knows nor in all probability will any one ever know where Senor Garcia lived between the warti'in which he served or what he did to support himself. He simply appeared when there was work for him and disappeared when it was done.

It does not need that 1 should attempt here to unravel the political snarl out of which grew the revolution led by Gaitan. It is sufficient for my story that when Gen. Mateus marched down the valley of the Magdalena to meet Gen. Reyes from the coast one of the regiments of "Loyal Cauca," was under the command of Col. Jose Maria Sanchez, Col. Sanchez—a grim, grizzled veteran— was wonderfully altered since the days when he and Rafael Cordoba passed Calamar on their way home from Paris. And yet as he walked that first evening along the bank behind the line of sandbags protecting the troops which filled the little town from the ballets of the Gaitaneros on the island across the river, and listened to the bugles as they rang out the soft, sweet music of the "Buenas Noches"—"good night"—call, his thoughts went back for over forty years. The sentries, with their steady march up and down their posts the great guns, not yet in position, bat lying ready for the carriages: the line- of sands.

Vwy'houses, which stood ghost Iflce under the pall of the faint light vanished away.
