t Monsieur

By BOOTH TARKING TON, Author of ' The Gentleman From Indiana" and ''The Conquest of Canaan."

(Continued from Yesterday.'), ' M. de Mirepoix followed him, bowing a3 a courtier in deference, but M. Beaucairo took both his hands heartily. Molyneux came after, .with Mr. Nash, and closed the door. "ily warmest felicitations," said the marquis. "There is no longer need for your incognito." "Thou best of masters !" said Beaucaire, touching him fondly on the shoulder. "I know. Your courier came safely. And so I am forgiven ! But I forget." lie turned to the lady. She had begun to tremble exceedingly. "Faires' of all the English fair," he said, a3 the gcntlemen bowed low to her deep courtesy, "I beg the honor to presen' to Lady Mary Carlisle, M. le Comte de Beaujolais. M. do Mirepoix has already the honor. Lady Mary ha3 been very kind to me, my f rien's. You mus' help me mako my acknowledgment. Mademoiselle and gentlemen, will you give mo that favor to detain you one instan 2 . i "Henri," he turned to the young Beaujolais, "I wish you had chared my mask I have been so gay !" The surface of his tono was merry, but there was an undercurrent, weary-sad, to speak, of what cwas the mood, not the manner. He made the effect of addressing every one present, but he looked steadily at Lady Mary. Her eyes .were fixed upon him, with-a silent and frightened fascination, and sho trembled more and more. "I am a great actor, Henri. These gentlemen are yet scarce convince' I am not a lackey ! And I mus tell you that I was jus' now to be expelled for having been a barber !" "Oh, no !" the ambassador cried out. "He would not be content frith me. He would wander over a strange country." "Ha, ha, my Mirepoix! And what 13 better, one evening I am oblige to fight some frien's of M. de Winterset there, and some ladies and cavaliers look on, and they still think mo a servant. Oh, I am a great actor! 'Tis true there is not a peasant in France who would not have then known one 'born but they are wonderful, this English people, holding by an idea once it is in their heads a mos' worthy quality. But my good Molyneux herej he had speak to me with courtesy, jus because I am a man an' jus' because he is al-ways kind. j(I have learn that his great-grandfather was a Frenchman.) So I sen' to him and tell him everything, and he gain admittance for me hero itonight to await my frien's. "I was speaking to messieurs about my cousin, who will meddle in the affair' of his relative'. Well, that gentleman, he mako a marriage for me with a good and accomplish' lady, very noble and very beautiful and amiable." (Tho young count at his elbow started slightly at this, but immediately appeared to wrap himself in a mantle of solemn thought.) "Unfortunately, when my cousin arrange' so I was a dolt, a little blockhead. I swear to marry for myself and when I please or never if I like. That lady is all things charming and gentle, and, in truth, she is very much attach' to me why should I not say it ? I am so proud of it. She is very faithful and forgiving and sweet. She would bo the same, I think, if I were even a lackey. But I? I was a dolt, a little unsensible brute. I did not value such thing' then. I was too yo'ng, las' J une. So I say to my cousin, 'No, I mako my own choosing I' 'Little fool ho answer, 'she is the one for you. Am I not wiser than you Y And ho was very angry, and, as he has influence in France, word come' that he will get me put in Vincennes, so I rua' run away quick till his anger is gone. My good f rien' Mirepoix is-jus' leaving for London. He take' many risk' for my sake. His hairdresser die before he start', so I travel as that poor barber. But my cousin is a man to be afraid of when he is angry, even in England, and I mus' not get my Mirepoix in trouble. I mus' not bo discover' till my cousin is ready to laugh about it all and make it a joke. And there may be spies. So I change my name again and come to Bath to amuse my retreat with a little gaming. I am al-ways fond of that. But three day' ago M. lo Marquis send me a courier to say that my brother, who know where I had run away, is come from France to say that my cousin is appeas'. He need me for his little theater, the play cannot go on. I do not need to espouse mademoiselle. All shall be forgiven if I return, and my brother and M. de Mirepoix will meet mo in Bath to felicitate. : "There is one more thing to say that is all. I have said I learn' a secret, and use it to make a man introduce me if I will not tell. He lias absolve' me of that promise. My frien's, I had not the wish to ruin that man. I was not receive'. Meestaire Nash had reboff me. I had no other way except' to use this fellow. So I say, 'Take me to Lady Malbourne's ball as "Chateaurien." ' I throw off my wig and Ehave, and behol', I am M. lo Due de Castle Nowhere. Ha, ha ! You 6eo ?" Tho young man's manner suddenly changed. He became haughty, menacing. He stretched out his arm and pointed at Winterset. "Now I am no 'Beaucaire,' messieurs. I am a French gentleman. The man who introduce' me at the price of his honor and then betray me to redeem it, is that coward, that card cheat there !" Winterset made a horrible effort to laugh. The gentlemen who surrounded him fell away as from pestilence. "A French gentleman I" he sneered savagely and yet fearfully. "I don't know who you are. Hide behind as many toys and ribbons as you like. I'll know the name of the man who dares bring such a charge !" "Sir I" cried de Mirepoix sharply, advancing a step toward him; but he checked himself at once. He made a low bow of state, first to the young Frenchman, then to Xady Mary and tho company. "Permit me, Lady Mary and gentlemen," he said, "to assume the honor of presenting you to his highness, Prince Louis-Philippe de Valois, duke of Orleans, duke of Chartres, duke of Nemours, duke of Montpensier, first prince of the blood royal, first peer of France, lieutenant general of French infantry, governor of Dauphine, knight of the Golden Fleece, grand master of tho Order of Notre Dame, of Mount Carmel nd of St. Lazarus in Jerusalem, and cousin to his most Christian majesty, Loui3 XV. of France." "Those are a few of my brother's names," whispered Henri of Beaujolais to Molyneux. "Old Mirepoix has the long breath, but it take a strong man two day to say all of them. I can suppose this .Winterset know' now who bring the charge I" "Castle Nowhere!" gasped Beau Nash, falling back upon the burly prop of Mr. Bantison's shoulder. "The Duke of Orleans will receive a message from me within the hour !" said Winterset as he made his way to the door. His face wa3 black with rage and shame. you that I would not soil my hand with you," answered the

v noever snail Dear n wm i ivti t a. nine uuanug kuui i iiuicumHe stepped to Lady Mary's side. Her head was bent low, her face averted. She seemed to breathe with difficulty and leaned heavily upon a chair. "Monseigneur," she faltered iu a half whisper, "can yqU forgive me ? It i3 a bitter mistake I have made. Forgive." "Forgive ?" he answered, and his voice was as broken a3 hers ; but he went on, more firmly: "It is nothing les3 than nothing. There is only jus' one in the whole worl' who would not have treat' me the way that you treat' me. It is to her that I am goin' to make reparation. You know something, Henri ? I am not goin' back only because the king forgive me. I am goin' to please him. I am goin' to espouse mademoiselle, our cousin. My frien's, I ask your felicitations." "And the king does not compel him 1" exclaimed young Henri. "Henri, you want to fight me ?" cried his brother sharply. "Don you think the king of France is a wiser man than me ?" L He offered his hand to Lady Mary. !?: : "Mademoiselle is fatigue'. Will she honor me ?" He walked with her to the door, her hand fluttering faintly in his. From somewhere about the garments of one of them a little cloud of faded rose leaves fell and lay strewn on the floor behind them. He opened the door, and the lights shone on a multitude of eager faces turned toward it. There wa3 a great hum of voices, and, over all, the fiddles wove a wandering air, a sweet French song of the voyageur. He bowed very low, as, with fixed and glistening eyes, Lady Mary Carlisle, tho beauty of Bath, passed slowly by him and went out of tho room. , , . ,

THE A Singular 'By IVILLARD D I one day told me that k I 1 . J a i 1, found an educated and "I'm not guilty of

guilty, and they're going to hang me. Now, I want you to make an effort for my life. I shall not swing for six weeks, and meanwhile I want all your time. I'll give you $500 for your time and $10,000 if you'll find out who committed the murder and thus exonerate me." The murdered man was a Mr. Jarvi3. He and the condemned, Horton, lived near each other and had had business dealings together. One night Horton visited Jarvis. They had hot words, Horton accusing Jarvis of having swindled him, and the next morning Jarvis was found dead, shot through the body. Tho murdered man was the only person in the house except the servants, who slept in tho back part and did not hear the shot. I wrorked a month endeavoring to find a clew to some one who would have had an interest in Mr. Jarvis' death. I failed signally. Taking a box of tools, I went, as a final expedient, to the room at 0 in the evening the hour Horton had visited Jarvis and began a systematic examination of the locks, window catches, indeed anything pertaining to entrance and exit. I found nothing and at midnight, tired and disappointed, went to sleep on a lounge. Somehow I couldn't get rid of the fancy that I might see something during tho night to give mo a clew. But I didn't. With the life of a fellow being on my hands I slept but little and was awake at daylight in the morning. I was in a library, and, besides books, it was filled with curiosities. Among other things I noticed on the wall a pair of moose's horns supporting an antique arquebus. It was hung in such a manner that it did not point parallel with the wall, but at an acute angle. The sun had been up some time, and its rays were converged by a convex glass in a fancy window into a brilliant spot on the wall. I watched the spot travel as the sun rose, and it passed a short distance from the powder pan in the arquebus. I looked at the chair in which Mr. Jarvis had been accustomed to sit and noticed that the weapon pointed directly at it. It occurred to me that if the sun spot had passed exactly over the pan and the gun had been loaded it would have been fired. Then it suddenly entered my head that this sun spot and gun might have been connected with J arvis' death. I got up and examined the gun. It wa3 empty. I called the servants. They reported that their master had kept it loaded, declaring that it was yet good enough to protect him against burglars. At any rate I believed Jarvis had been killed by the gun even if the sun spot had not fired it. The next morning I took an assistant from an astronomical observatory into the room. He noticed the course traveled by the sun spot and figured its track on the date of tho murder. After finishing his computations he announced that tho spot on that date passed over tho pan of tho arquebus. One thing more. I got up. on a stepladder, looked down the gun's barrel and saw that it pointed directly at Mr. Jarvis' chair. As soon as I had completed these investigations I went to the prisoner and announced the result. I shall never forget the look c f intelligence and hope that came into his face. The next morning I had the prisoner's attorney in the room, and the next the judge that had sentenced him. The attorney formed the theory that Mr. Jarvis wa3 sitting in his chair the morning the sun spot fired the arquebus and killed him. The prisoner was accorded a new trial, but it was a very short one. The jury, after visiting the room and seeing a demonstration by the attorney, who arranged that the sun spot should fire a bullet into Mr. Jarvis' chair, acquitted the prisoner. Tho incident saved his life and
