THE MOON'S LULLABY. ■tiling aloft in the starry sky. The New Moon rooks her cradle, And slhgeth sweet as the stars go by With toddling feet and twinkling eye; ■“Oh' hush thee, my dearie, and rest tae® so ? ', weary, Come rook In my cradle of gold, A moonbeam s^Ul kiss thee and angels shall bless thee, _ And cloudlets thy slumbers enfold.” Sweet Is the song the New Moon sings. As she sits and rocks her cradle; , Fair is the golden couch that she swings, And,soft the cloudlets’ havering wings. But the 8t3r-child still r* inkles her eye, Awake till the break * t day; But then sbe obeys and trundles to bed . While the New Moon Sings her lay. Tenderly rocking to and fro Sbe sleeps In the golden cradle. Tucked under a cloudlet as soft as snow, “She lists as the New Moon whispers low; “Oh.' hush thee, my dearie, and rest thee so weary, Oh! rock In my cradle of gold. A moonbeam shall kiss thee and angels shall bless thee. And cioud’ets thy slumbers enfold. ” —Edwin O. Grover. In Good Housekeeping.

And so a second time did Jeffers make the trip to town that day. this time perched with folded arms in the rumble *>f the pony-phaeton. ° And while she was gone the junior doctor was having the liveliest experience of his few years of service. Scorched and burned though she was, Mrs. Doyle’s faculties seemed. to have returned with renewed acuteness and force. She demanded to be taken to Tier husband’s side, but the doctor •sternly refused. She demanded to be told his condition, and was informed that it was so critical he must pot be disturbed, especially by her who was practically responsible fo” all his trouble. Then she insisted on knowing whether he was conscious whether he bad asked for a priest, and when informed that Father Foley had already arrived, it required the •strength of four men to hold her. She raved like.a maniac, and her screams appalled the garrison. But screams and struggles were all in vain. “Fills the Less” sent for his senior, and “Pills the Pitiless” more than ever deaerved his name. He sent for a strait jacket, saw her securely stowed away in that and borne over to a vacant room in the old hospital, set the steward’s wife on watch and a sentry at the door, went back to Waring’s bedside, where Sam lay tossing in burning fever, murmured his few words of caution to Pierce and Ferry, then hastened back to where poor Doyle was gasping in agony of mind and body, clinging to the hand of the gentle soldier of the cross, gazing piteously into his father confessor's eyes, drinking in his words of exhortation, yet unable to make articulate reply. The flames had dopp their cruel work. Only in desperate pain could he speak again. It was nearly* dark when Mrs. Cram came driving back to barracks, bringing Mr. Reynolds with her. Her eyes were dilated, her cheeks flushed with •excitement, os she sprang frorfrthe low phaeton, and, with a murmured “Come to me as soon as you can” to her husband, she sped away ‘ up the stairs, leaving him to receive and entertain her passenger. *‘I, too, went to see Mme. Lascelles late this afternoon*” said Reynolds. “I wished to show her tjxis." , It was a copy of a dispatch to the chief of police of New Orleans. It e’&ted in effect, that Philippe Lascelles had not been seen or heard of around Key West for over two weeks. It was Relieved that he had gone to Havana. “Can you get word of this to our friend the detective?” asked Cram. “I have wired already. He has gone to Georgia. What I hoped to do was to note the effect of this on Mme. Irfiscelles; but she was too ill to see iae. Luckily, Mrs. ('ram was there, itnd I sent it up to her. * She will tell you. Now I have to see Braxton.” And then came a mteseger to ask Oram to join the doctor at Doyle’s quarters at once; so he scurried upstairs to see Nell first- and learn her tidings. , “Did I not tell you?” she exclaimed, •b he entered the parlor. “Philippe Lascelles was here that very night, and had been seen with his brothcr’at the <*Sice on Royal street twice before this thing happened, and they had trouble about money. Oh, I made her under*tand. I appealed to her as a woman to do what-she could to right Mr. Warihg, who *rf.s so generally believed ton

tte tne gumy man. 1 tom ncr we naa detectives tracing Philippe and would ttoon find how and when he reached Hew Orleans. Finally I showed her the dispatch that Mr. Reynolds afent up, and at last she broke down, burst into tears, and said she, too, had learned since theinquest that Philippe Was with her husband, and probably Was the stranger referred to, that awful night. She even suspected it at the time, for she knew he came not to borrow but to demand money that was rightfully his, and also certain papers that Armand held and that now were gone. It was she who told me of Philippe’s having been seen with Armand At the office, but sho declared she could not believe that he would kill her husband. I pointed out the fact that ArShand had fired two Shots from his pistol, apparently, And that no bullet marks had been found in the room where the quarrel took place, and that If his shots had taken effect on his Antagonist he simply could not have been Waring, for though Warmg had been bruised and beaten about the bead, the doctor said there was no sign «f ballet mark about him anywhere. She reconuxed the truth of this, bat

Btill she said she believed that there was a quarrel or was to be a quarrel between her husband, and Mr. Waring. Otherwise I believe her throughout. I believe that, no matter what romance there was about nursing' Philippe and his falling in love with her, she did not encourage him, did not call him here again, was true to her old husband. She is simply possessed with the idea that the quarrel which killed her husband was between himself and Mr. { Waring, and that it occurred after Ph lippe had got his money and papers, j and gone.’* “ W-e-e-11, Philippe: will have a heap to explain when he is found,” was Cram’s reply. “Sow I have got to go to Doyle’s. He is making some confession, I expect, to the priest,” But Cram never dreamed for an instant what that was to be. That night poor Doyle’s’ spirit took its flight, and the stow/ of misery he had to tell, partly by scrawling with a pencil, partly by gesture in reply to question, partly in painfully-gasped sentences, a few vrords at a time, was practically this: Lascelles and his pa rty did indeed leave him at the Pelican when he was so drunk he only vaguely knew what was going on or what had happened in the bar-room where they were drinking, but his wife had told him the whole story. Lascelles wanted more drink—champagne; the bar-tender wanted to close up. They bought several bottles, however, and had them put in the cab, and Lascelles was gay and singing, and, instead of going directly home, insisted on stopping to make a eall on the lady who occupied the upper floor of the house Doyle rented on the levee. Doyle rarely saw her, but she sometimes wrote to Lascelles and got Bridget to take the letters to him. She was setting her cap for the old"

verdict that Lascelles had died by Waring’s hand. Had they met in the dnello as practiced in the south in those days, sword to sv ord, or armed with pistol at twelve paces, she would have shuddered, bat maintained that as a soldier and gentleman Waring could not have refused his opponent's challenge, inexcu sable though such challenge might ha* e been. But that he could have ,stooj 3d to vulgar, unregulated fracas, with* nt seconds or the formality of the cartel, first with fists and those women’s weapons, nails, then knives or* stilettoes as though he were some low dago or Sicilian—why, that was simply and utterly incredible. None the less she was relieved and rejoiced, as were all Waring's friends, when the full purport of poor Doyle’s dying confession was noised abroad Even those; who were skeptical were now silenced. For four days her comfort and relief had been inexpressible; and then came the hour when, with woe and trouble in his face, her husband returned to her from Waring’s bedside with the incomprehensible tidings that he had utterly repudiated Doyle’s confession—had, indeed, said that which could probably only serve; to renew the suspicion of his own guilt, or else justify the theory that he was demented. Though Cram and the doctor warned Waring not to talk, talk lie would, to Pierce, to t’erry, to Ananias; and \hough these three were pledged by Cram to reveal to no one v hat Waring said, it plunged them in an ag ony of fcloubt and misgiving. Day after day had the patient told and retold the story, and never could cross-question-ing shake him in the least. Cram sen^ for Reynolds and took h on into their confidence, and Reynolds heard the story and added his questions, but to

‘it's ax infernal lie!"

Frenchman. “We called her Mrs. Dawson.” The cabman drove very slowly through the storm as Doyle walked home along with Bridget and some man who was helping, and when they reached the gate there was the cab and Waring in it. The cab-driver was standing by his horse, swearing at the delay and saying he would charge double fare. Doyle had had trouble with his wife for many years, and renewed trouble lately because of two visits Lascclles had paid there, and that evening when she sent for him he was drinking in Waring’s rooefl had been drinking during the day; he dreaded more trouble, and ’twas he who took Waring’s knife, and still had it, he said, when he entered the gate, and no sooner did he see Lascclles at his door than he ordered him to leave. Lascelles refused to go. Doyle knocked him down, and the Frenchman sprang i up, swearing vengeance. Lascelles ! fired two shots, and Doyle struck once \ —with the knife—and there lay Las- ! cclles, dead, before Doyle could know ' or realize what he was doing. In fact, Doyle never did know. It was what j his wife had told him. and life had ' been a hell to him ever since that i woman came back. 8he had blackmailed him, more or less, ever since he j got his commission, because of an old ] trouble he’d had in Texas. And this confession was written out for him, signed by Doyle on his dying bed, duly witnessed, and the civil authorities were promptly notified. Bridget Doyle was handed over to the police. Certain detectives out somewhere on the trail of somebody else were telegraphed to come in, and four days later, when the force of the fever was broken and Waring lay weak, languid, but returning to his senses, Cram and the doe tor read the confession to their patient, and then started to their feet as he almost sprang from the bed. “It’s an infernal lie!” he weakly cried. “I took that knife from Doyle and kept it. I myself saw Lascelles to his gate, safe and sound.” XL »■ The sunshine of an exquisite April morning was shimmering over the Louisiana lowlands as Battery “X” was “hitching in,” Mid Mrs. Cram’s pretty pony-phaeton came flashing through the garrison gate and reined, up in front of the guns. A proud and happy woman was Mrs, Cram, and daintily she gathered the spotless, cream-colored reins and slanted her long English driving-whip at the exact angle prescribed by the vogue of the day. By her side, reclining luxuriously on his pillows, was Sam Waring, now senior first lieutenant of the battery, taking his first airing since his strange illness. Pallid and thin though he was, that young gentleman was evidently capable of appreciating to the fullest extent the devoted attentions of which he had been the object ever since his return. Stanch friend ahd fervent champion of her husband’s most distinguished officer at any time, Mrs. Cram had thrown herself into his cause with a zeal that challenged the admiration even of the men whom she mercilessly fnttbbed because they had accented the general ; ■' f. . , ' s_ ..

no effect. From first tc last he remembered every incident up to his parting with Lascelles at his own gateway. After that—nothing. His story, in brief, was as follows: He was both surprised and concerned while smoking and chatting with Mr. Allerton in the rotunda of the St. Charles to see Lascelles, with a friend, evidently watching an opportunity of speaking with him. He had noticed about a week previous a marked difference in the old Frenchman’s manner, and three days before the tragedy, when calling on his way from town to see madame and Kin Kin, was informed that they were not at home, and monsieur himself was the informant; nor did he, as heretofore, invite Waring to enter. Sam was a fellow who detested misunderstanding. Courteously, but positively, he demanded explanation. Lascelles shrugged his shoulders, but gave it. He had heard too much of monsieur’s attentions to madame, his wife, and desired their immediate discontinuance. He must request monsieur’s assurance that he would not again visit Ileau Rivage, or else the reparation duo a man of honor, etc. “Whereupon,” said Waring, “I didn’t propose to be outdone in civility, and therefore replied, in the best French I could command: ‘Permit me to tender monsieur—both. Monsieur’s friends will find me at the barracks.’ ” “All the same,” s£,id Waring, “when I found madame and Kin Kin stuck in the mud I did what I considered the proper thing, and drove them, eoram publico, to ‘bonne niaman’s,’ never letting them see, of course, that there was any row' on tap, and so when I saw the old fellow with a keen-looking party alongside I felt sure it meant mischief. I was utterly surprised, therefore, when Lascelles came up with hat off add band extended, bowing low, praying pardon for the intrusion, but saying ht could not defer another instant the desire to express his gratitude the most profound for my extreme courtesy to madame and his beloved child. He had heard the whole story, and, to my confusion, insisted on going over all the details before I Allerton, even to my heroism, as he called it, in knocking down that big bully of a cabman. I was^confused, ypt couldn’t shake him off" He was persistent. He was abject. He begged to meet iny friend, to present his, to \ open champagne and drink eternal friendship. He would change the name of his chateau—the rotten old rookery —from Beau Rivage to Belle Alliance. He would make this day a fete in the calendar of the Lascelles family. And then it began to dawn on me that he had been drinking champagne before he came. I did not catch the name of j the other gentleman, a much younger ! man. He was very ceremonious and j polite, but distant. Then, in some j way, came np the fact that 1 had been trying to get a cab to take me back to barracks, and then LasceUes declared that nothing could be more opportune. He had secured a carriage and was just going down with monsieur. They had des affaires to transact at once. I He took me aside and said: ‘In proof t that son accept my amende, and in

order that I may make to yxm msj per* sonal apologies, you most accept my invi tation.’ So go with them I did. I was all the time thinking of Cram’s mysterious note bidding me return at taps. I couldn’t imagine what was up, but I made my best endeavors to get a cat*. None was to be had, so I was really thankful for this, opportunity. All the way down Lascelles overwhelmed me with civilities, and I could only murmur and protest, and the other party only murmured approbation. He hardly spoke English at All. Then Lascelles insisted on a stop at the Pelican, and on bumpers of champagne, and there, as luck wonid have it, was Doyle—drank, as usual, and determined to join the party; and, though I endeavored to put him aside, Lascelles would not have it. He insisted on being presented to the comrade of his gallant friend, and in the private room where we went he overwhelmed Doyle with details of our grand reconciliation and with bumper after bumper of Krug. This enabled me to light shy of the wine, but in ten minutes Doyle was fighting drank, Lascelles tipsy The driver came in for his pay, saying he would go no further. * They had a row. Lascelles wouldn’t pay; called him an Irish thief t^nd all that. I slipped my last V into the driver’s hand and got him out, somehow. M. Philippes, or whatever his name was, said he would go out—he’d get a cab in the neighborhood; and the next thing I knew Lascelles and Doyle were in a fury of a row. Lascelles said all the Irish were knaves, and blackguards and swindlers, and Doyle stumbled around after him. Out came a pistol! Out came a knife! I tripped Doyle and got him into a chair, and was so intent on pacifying him and telling him net to make a fool of himself that I didn't notice anything else. I handled him good-naturedly, got the knife away, and then was amazed to find that he had my own pet papercutter. I made them shake hands ard make up. ‘It was all a mistake.’ said Lascelles. But wha t made it a worse mistake, the old man would order more Vrine, and with it brand}’. He insisted on celebrating this second grand reconciliation, and then both got drunker, but the tall Frenchman had Lascelles’ pistol and I had the knife, and then a cab came, and,.though it was storming beastly and I had Ferry's duds on and Larkin’s best tile and Pierce’s umbrella, we bundled iu somehow and drove on down the leve'l, leaving Doyle in the hands of that Amazon of a wife of his and a couple of doughboys who happened to te around there. Now Lascelles was all hilarity, singing, joking, confidential. Nothing would do but we must stc p and call on a lovely woman, a belle amie. He could rely on our discretion, he said,laying his finger on his nose.and looking sly and coquettish, for all the world like some old rone of a Frenchman. He must stop and see her and take her some wine. ‘Indeed,’ he said, mysteriously, ‘it is a rendezvous.’ | TO BE CONTINUED. |

CAUGHT BY A WORD. The Kev Grocer Beaten in an Axhandle Beal. Among' the worthies that loafed about an Indiana town, says the Waverly Magazine, was one Jim Jones. He was one of those whittling geniuses who can make anything, from a top to a log cabin, out of a chunk cl wood. Ilis credit and reputation were not over good, but the new grocery maii had not learned these facts. So when Jim sidled into the new store with :% bundle of smooth-looking ax-handle ^ the proprietor was not long in closing a deal with him and settling in hard cash. Shortly afterward an old Hoosicr dropped in to purchase a handle. “Them be nice-looking goods. What might the price be?” “Those are extra line hickory,” sai<l the young grocer. “We shall have to charge fifty cents apiece.” “Let me^ee one.” The farmer burst into a loud “hawhaw!” as he balanced the stick upon his little finger and went out to teil how green the new grocer was. Next day in the presence of a large crowd of corner loafers the groceryman tackled Jim Jones. “Sir, you are a liar and a robber!” “So?” said. Jim. “Yes, sir. Yon sold me these basswood haddles by fraud!” “Wall, I guess; hot. I told you the truth sure,” said Jim, coolly. “You lie! You said they were knot hickory!” retorted the overheated groceryman. “Eggsackly,” drawled Jim. “I said they was not hickory—no more are they.” Amid the haw-haws of the crowd the young grocer was forced to pass around the cider and swallow his loss and chagrin in the same gulp.

Sian’s Opinion of/Wumon’s Dress. A man’s opinioij of a gown is ever eagerly sought, and while they are supposed to never.Tcnow what a gown is worth, still thejf declare that they know when a gown locks well. “Coming across the Rue do- I was surprised,” says a New York Recorder writer, “to hear a man ejaculate: ‘There goes the best dressed woman I’ve seen to-day.’ Hastily turning, i saw a dark-eyed, dark-haired woman passing along, clothed entirely in black —but such black! The skirt was of a heavy qualify of plain satin; made fo flare slightly, and finished witw* Uiree small ruffles. The sleeves were of black satin and were moderately full. The bonnet was of solid black, and close fitting, tied at the back under a soft coil of hair. The gloves and parasol were to match, and this in all formed a most refreshing toilet of absolute simplicity, yet withal elegant to a degree,”_ Seasonable and Reasonable.
