who was as grave as a judge, lor an hour, during which time wo had been promenading the boulovartl. we had been stupid and sliest, like men who do not know what to do with thoir time. Suddenly I perceived the sprightly figure of my friend, Henri Martin. All!" I orled, Martin will suggest a way of passing the evening." Martin had never had a well-defined profession. He had been a little of every thing musician, actor, litterateur, mathematician, merchant, manufacturer. He was a handsome fellow, of about the medium height, slender, having a well-shaped head, a silky mustache and beautiful black eyes,
largo and earnest. Martin Is essentially a man of action; he never seems to ba at rest "Ah! how fortunate I am to And you!M he exnlalned;and then, making a disdainful gesture toward the playhills, he asked; "Do you think J going to the theater??
"Yes." "Have you dined?" WbtVet"

Martin rmlted a eab which was passtag, and we were taken home, where we were allowed ten minutes to dress. We were soon altogether again in the cib, which was driven in the direction of the Champa Elyseee. Martin smoked his cigarette in solemn majesty. Again I asked: "Whese are you taking us?" My insistence seemed to vex him, but he condescended to reply: To the Forte Maillot." Por dinner?" Certainlyfor dinner." And was it necessary that we nhonld don evening drees when only we three are to dine together?" asked Loumsgne, who was put out, for he had no affection for hie swallow-tall. Martin turned a severe glance on us as he said: Are you accustomed to attond wod-

0, come, Martin, speak soriously.
I am speaking seriously. About two o'clock this afternoon, while passing the Church of the Trinity, I saw a charming, adorable brido come forth, and I said to myself: -There is a brido to whom I-would like to drink a toast.' Ifowtho only way to 'toast hor Is, of course, to be a guest at her wedding feast, and to her wrddlng feast wo are srolntr. mv friends. I hoard her father-
in-law say to one of the guesta: 'This evening at tho Porte Maillot.' And I know the namo of the brido I learned it from tho boitdle it is Mile. Lemonnlor Blanche L.emonnior. You Shall see how charming she is-a droam of love and beauty!" When we arrived at the restaurant Martin had the air of ono who had come, in all nerioUHnees, as a guest of the wedding-foRst There were three wedding partlw nt the restaurant that evening, consequently the whole establishment was in a commotion. The waiters rushed up and down the stairs. The stewards lenawl ovsi the balusters of the throe tooiu, shouting, storming, oallliig for napkins, knives and glnsees:
SOT
astU ft
llo moment is propitious," W Martin, with delight. "Ami three wedillng feasts at that! If we are ex o tided from our we can attond one of t. ethers." Then, with graceful assurance, he ssld to as attendant: "Mile. LemoHtiier'u wedding party ?" "First seer." We weae a.llttla apprehensive In r gard to the termination of aur e::psdities as we followed Martin. He, hewever, was soon in the reom where the servant had Just finished setting the table. "Ah, I am glad to see you are ready
in good time." said Martin, in a tone of voice befitting a waiter of oetomonies. The steward, who held a paper in his hand, bowed respectfully. "Is this the list of the guoats?"
nalil Martin, taking tho papor from
the steward. "Letussoe if it U oor raot."
Surveying the table witli a grave air. he veriiiod tlio list, and then eaid
sharply:
"You have made a mistake. Three
covers are wnntiii?. It is fortunate
arrived oarly." Whilo tho confusod
steward called over the baluitor, glv' Ing orders for three more overs, Mat'
tin added our throe names to tho list and made the ncuosary changes on
the table. He arranged a place for
himself opposite tho bride, placing us
at a short distance from him in order
that we mitrht come to his lvscue if
he got into diilloulty.
Then we solemnly waited the arrival of the wedding guosts, who soon
assembled.
Weddings are usually gay, but there are also thoo which are melancholy. That of Mlla Lemonnler bolonged to the latter category. When M. Joseph Durand bogan to pay court to Mile. Lemonnler. as I afterwards learned, thoir positions, as far as fortune was concerned, wcro about equal. Mile. Lemonnler had a dowrr of ono hundred thousand francs
and expectations of coming in for two hundred thousand more, all of which had been amassed by her father in the wine business. Her father and mother were good, honest people, whoso only fault was excessive love of money. What they found desirable in Joseph Durand was not so much his amiability, his refined manner and his tender love for Blanche, as his important position in alargetdry-
goods firm, the forty thousand francs which his parents were to give him on the day of his marriage, and the magnificent property which would fall to him later. No one knew better than M. Lemonnler the value of the vlne-
varde on his property, which was sit
uated la the center o( Gascony. The Mer Dttrant,nioreoer, has one hun
dred thousand francs in bank, which
in time would coma to his son.
Blanche paid no attention to these easiness matters. So kved Joseph
ftttraad simply because she loved kin,
he as meaty term mm a
rather sever eoueiteaaae wh
way softened beflftr her istt because she imagined that wi
life would be an uninterrupted series of pleasure. Joseph Duraad's. lo
fer Blanche was equally unselfish. He adored the charming, sprightly little brunette; he adored her plump Kg re, her bright face, her velvety eyes and her beautiful waving tresses. Great was the consternation, therefore, when on the evening before' tho day set for signing the contract M. Lemonnler, before tho assembled members of the two families, declared that the marriage should sot take place. Having become suspicious, M. Leraonnter had a few days before undertaken to verify tho declarations of the Durand family, and he had just received news that the banker who had held the one hundred thousand francs
which his prospective son-in-law was to inhorit was about to suspend payment. "You knew this, monsieur," he said to M. Durand, "yet you did not toll us." M. Durand warmly defended hl bankor, who, he declared, was an honest man, and he asserted that although temporarily embarrassed he would pass triumphantly through tho crisis In his affairs. M. Durand was interrupted by M. Lemonnler, who said, brusquely:
"My daughter will never have a sou
of your one hundred thousand francs.
But that would be nothing if your
vinos woro not blighted by tho phyl
loxera, or if your bankor fails it is be
cause Gascony has boon ruined by tho
nhylloxe'H."

"Ah! yes Martin! yes, Henri Martin! I remember it now. It is strange how one forgets names on such un occasion. Martin yes, yes, Martin!" Ho triod to shake hands with Martin again, but the latter had flown to tho side of tho bride. "Hero, madame," he said, "here is your Rlaco." Thon, tapping Joseph Durand on tho shouldor, he remarked: You ought to consider yourself a vorv happy man. Your wife is an
adorable creature." He did not stop to listen to the thanks of the bridegroom, but moved about the table, calling the names of the guests and showing them their placoe. He stcs so gracious with the elderly ladles, so rospoctful to the

began railroading In 1840 as conductor on the Hangor, Oldtown f Milford road, which was the second railroad built in this country, and has been punching tickets ever since. He It now conductor of the principal passenger train on the Bangor & Piscataquis road, running from Bangor to Moosehead Lake and return, a distance of 175 miles, every day, and he is known by all the tourists and fishermen who have traveled that way for years past. There have been great changes In railroading since Conductor Swan began his career on wheels. The Bangor, Oldtown Milford, better known as the Veazie railroad, from it pro
jector and principal owner, General Samuet Veazio. was a great institution
In its time, but weuld be a curiosity today. It was built about the year 188G, and extended across the back country from Bangor to Milford, a distance of twoivo miles, being intended, principally, as a moans for the transportation of lumber sawn at the up-river mills to Bangor, although a considerable passenger traffic was also deeloped. There were no curves, the line running straight as an arrow from one end to the other, big ledges having
beon blasted out and hills cut through to make way for the roadbed, while at places great hollows were filled in to avoid any thing like a grade. The rails were 12 feet long. 2 inches wide and J inch thick, spiked to timbers, after the fashion of a
streetcar track. The rolling-stock at the outset consisted of two 6-ton locomotives, built by Stephenson, at New-castle-on-Tyne, Eng., at a cost of 5,000 each; three passenger cars, built at Cambridge, Mass., at a cost of 1,200
each, and a few fiat-oars for carrying lumber. The engines had no cabs, while the passenger cars had their entrances along tho sides, English style, and the brake man perched on top. Six miles an hour was the maximum speed on the road, but this rat i a rri -.1.1 A

the frontispiece with a rather unfortunate quotation: "If this theory be true it upset all other theories." The conver.se seems to have been very satisfactorily established. A full record of the General's military experience Is also given, apparently a somewhat of a guaranty of good faith. The author's first experiment were on grape vines. In his grecuhotwe he substituted blue for white glass In every eighth row and succeeded in producing grapes so fine that all other were rendered insignificant beside them. In 1869 he treated some hogs to a similar dose and some little pigs grew and thrived so well that a royal road to a fortune in hog-raising seemed to have been found. Next he tried the effect of blue glass on an Alderney
bull calf, which grew six Inches almost as bv a miracle and became a veritable
Saul among the little calves on the AHiutA. From hoes and cattle the de
scent to poultry wo short and easy
and a chicken-house was fitted with
just the right proportion of blu glass. The result was as foreordained, The young chicks were ready fur the boiler almost as soon as they emerged from the shell, and those that escaped
the usual and proper spring-chicken route to oblivion grew Into splendidly developed and pluraaged birds. It needed not implicit belief In Darwinism to induce the General to apply his experiments to men and women. Architects would be required to so arrange buildings as to insure the introduction of the elixir-like ray so that the owners and occupiers'

But as this did not accord with tho

affair wa9 not ended. She persuaded
him to withdraw his objections to
tho marriage, not by speaking of hor
love, for alio knew, that such an ar
etiment would have little influence
with tho old tradesman, but by warn
ing him of tho scandal which tho breaking of the engagement would cause, and by threatening that she
would never marry and would enter a convent, old and classic measures
which Hover fall to bring obdurate
fathers to terms.

called the waiter' attention to the
fact that wine was wanting at on

"Durand, my friend, you are speak
ing to the bride in too low a voice.
That will not do. my friend. Upon
my honor. It will not do."
The groomsmen, who wore utterly
eclipsed by Martin, contented themselves with forming a little court about
tho bridesmaids.
When the time for toasts arrived
Martin rose to his full height, glass in
hand. Conversation ceased. All eagerly awaited his words. Address
ing the newly-married couple, he said:
"My young friends for as l nave

ness on your entrance mio msrneu life. But I ought to address to you a
few words of advice, to warn you of the adversities of earthly existence, of the reverses of fortune that are incident to it"
M. Durand and M. Lemonnler
listened with open mouths.
"But fear nothing," cried Martin. "You shall pass victoriously through all trials, and then your vino shall no more bo blighted by the phylloxera and your bankers shall not fall Our most illustrious savants are socking a remedy for tho evil caused by tho phylloxera. Thoy shall find it The ruined lands shall become rich and credit shall be re-established. Your happiness shall be crowned by fortune. My young friends, I drink to your future fortune, to your children, to your grandchildren, to your greatgrandchildren." Martin's toast was loudly applauded. M. Lemonnler pronounced it to be most felicitous. There were other toasts, but scarcely any one listened to them. Every thing revolved about Martin, who was soon busy directing the removal of tho table m order that the room might be cleared for dancing. It was Martin who opened the ball with ono of tho bridesmaids. All followed in his train, like people under a charm, singing hymeneal songs.
