Here, too, Sanches, the Seigneur's oM servant, returning months later from long wanderings to the vicinity of the Mount--for no especial reason, save the desire once more to see the place--had found him. And at the sight the man Crowned. In the later days, the Seigneur Desaurac had become somewhat un­ mindful, if not forgetful, of his own flesh and blood. It may be that the absorbing character of the large and chivalrous motives that animated him left little disposition or leisure for private concerns; at any rate, he seemed seldom to hare thought, much less spoken of, that "hostage of for­ tune" he had left behind; an absent- mindedness that in no wise surprised the servant--which, indeed, met the man's full, unspoken approval! The Seigneur, his master, was a Noble­ man of untarnished ancestry, to be followed and served; the son-- Sanches had never forgl ven the mother her lew-born extraction. He was, himself, a peasant! CHAPTER ill. m,h v & v ,' ^ v. * • ••** A Sudden Resolution. . After his chance encounter With my lady, the governor's daughter, and Beppo, her attendant, the boy walked quickly from the Mount to the forest. His eyes were still bright; his cheeks yet burned, but occasionally the shadow of a smile played about his mouth, and he threw up his head fiercely. At the verge of the wood toe looked back, stood for a moment with the reflection of light on his fac?. then plunged into the Bhadows of the sylvan labyrinth. Near the east door of the castle, -which presently he reached, he stopped for an armful of faggots, and, bending under his load, ^passed through an entrance, seared ^ . and battered, across & great rootles* * space and up a flight of steps to a ' * room that had once been the kitchen Of the vast establishment. As he en­ tered, a man, thin, wizened, though active looking, turned around. Y "So you've got back?" be said In a grumbling tone. \ "Yes," answered thfe boy good-nat- uredly, casting the wood to the tiag- ;S^v £•?>/ He Wat, Himself, a Peasant. ging near the flame and brushing his coat with his hand; "the storm kept Us. out last night, Sanchez." \ 'It'll keep you out for good some day," remarked the man. "You'll be drowned, if you don't have a care." "Better that than being hanged!' returned th» lad lightly. The other's response, beneath his breath, was lost, as he drew his stool close to the pot above the blaze, re­ moved the lid and peered within. Ap­ parently his survey was not satisfac­ tory, for he replaced the cover, clasped his fingers over his knees and half closed his eyes. j "Where's the fish?" * I The boy, thoughtfully regarding the flames, started ; when he had left thS child and Beppo, unconsciously he had dropped it, but this he did not now explain. "I didn't bring one." "Didn't bring one?" "No," said the boy, flushing slightly. "And not a bone or scrap in the larder! Niggardly fishermen! A small enough wage--for going to sea and helping them--" "Oh, I could have had what ! want­ ed; And they are not niggardly! Only--I forgot." "Forgot!" The man lifted Ms hands, but any further evidence of surprise or expostulation was interrupted by a sudden ebullition in the pot. Left to his thoughts, the boy stepped to the window; for some time Btood motionless, gazing through a forest rift at the end of which uprose the top of an Aladdin-like structure, by an optical illusion become a part of that locality; a conjuror's castle in the wood! "The Mount looks near tonight, Sanches!" "Near?" The man took from its hook the pot and set it on the taMe. "Not too near to suit the governor, perhaps!" "And why should it suit him?" drawing a stool to the table and sit­ ting down. "Because he must be so fond of looking at the forest." "And does that--please him?" "How could it fail to? Isn't it a fcico wood? Oh, yes, I'll warrant you he finds it to his liking. And all the lands about the forest that used to be­ long to the old Seigneurs, and which the peasants have taken--waste lands they have tilled--|ie must think them very fine to look at, now! And what a hubbub there would be, if the lazy peasants had to pay their metayage, and fire-tax and road-tax--and all the other taxes--the way the other peas­ ants do--to him--" "What do you mean?" "Nothing!" The man's Jaw closed like a steel trap. "The porridge is burned." And with no further word the meal proceeded. The man, first to finish, lighted his pipe, moved again to the fire, and, maintaining a taciturnity that had become more or less habit­ ual, stolidly devoted himself to the solace of the weed and the compan­ ionship of his own reflections. Once or twice the boy seemed about to speak and did not; finally, however, he leaned forward, a more resolute light in his sparkling black eyes. "You never learned to read, San­ ches?" At the unexpected question, the smoke puffed suddenly from the man's lips. "Not I." "Nor write?" The man made a rough gesture. **Kor sail to the moon!" he returned derisively. "Read? 'Rubbish! Write? What for? Does it hring more fish to your nets?" "Who--could show me how to read and write?" "You?" Sanchez stared. "Why not?" "Books are the tools of the devil!" declared Sanchez shortly. "There was a black man here today with a paper--a 'writ,' I think he called it-- or a 'service' of some kind--anyhow, It must have been in Latin," violently, "for such gibberish, I never heard and--" The boy rose. "People who can't read and write are low and ignorant!" "Eh? What's come over you?" "My father was a gentleman," "Your father!--yes--" '"And a Seigneur!'--" "A 8eigneur truly!" "And I mean to be one!" satd the bey suddenly, closing his fists. "Oh, oh! So that's it?" derisively. "You! A Seigneur? Whose mother--" "Who could teach me?" Determined, but with a trace of color on his brown cheek, the boy looked down. "Who?" The man began to recover from his surprise. 'That's not so easy to tell. But if you must know-- well, there's Gabriel Qabarie, for one, a poet of the people. He might do it --although there's talk of cutting olf his head--" "What for?" "For knowing how to write." The lad reached for his hat. "Where are you going?" "To the poet's." Queer Fishes of the Sea p:'/' Those That Live Down in the Deep* Are Grotesque and Chim­ erical. Cuba ends to the south in a huge hammer of mountains 8,000 feet high and steeping sheer into the sea. The wall does not end there, but con­ tinues its precipitous descent Into the 700-mlle-loag abyss called Bartlett's deep. This gigantic submarine valley is nearly tour miles deep and 80 miles wide. At a mile and a halt, the pressure *Nl the water is nearly two tons to the s3ftlRf£ Inch; the ooze that comes up from Such a depth, though the equator runB overhead, la cold as lioar frost; it Is ten t'nJvw ^artain that no vegeta­ tion can grow there.

As a matter 'of fact, thd&e ' glooms %.re in­ habited by the most grotesque ana chimerical of all fishes. It would seem as though in the darkness life had taken every Imaginable license to be ugly and bizarre. Cannibalism is evi­ dently the only method of life, and its equipment runs to every kind of ex­ travagance.

"However did you reconcil* A dele and IVfary?"* "I gave them a.choicq bit of-gossip and asked -thems-4M»t to repeat it to each other. "At this late boor! You are in a hurry!" , "it whit you say is true, there's no time to lose." "Well, if you find him writing verses about liberty and equality, don't interrupt him, or you'll lose your head,shouted the man. But when the sound of the boy's footsteps had ceased, Sanchez's ex­ pression changed; more bent, more worn, he got up and walked slowly to and, fro. "A fine Seigneur!" The moldering walls seemed to echo the words. "A fine Seigneur!" he mut­ tered, and again sat brooding by the fire. In the gathering dusk the lad strode briskly on. A squirrel barked to the right; he did not look around. A part­ ridge drummed to the left; usually alert to wood sound or life, tonight he did not heed it. But, fairly out of the forest and making his way with the same air of resolution across the sands toward the lowland beyond, his attention, on a sudden, became for­ cibly diverted. He had but half com­ pleted the distance from the place where he had left the wood to the ob­ jective point in the curvature of the shore, when to the left through the gloom, a great vehicle, drawn by six horses, could be seen rapidly ap­ proaching. From the imposing equip­ age gleamed many lamps; the moon, which ere this had begun to assert its place in the heavens, made bright the shining harness and shone on the polished surface of the golden car. Wondering, the boy paused. "What is that?" The person addressed, a fisherman belated, bending to the burden on hlB shoulders, stopped, and, breathing hard, looked around and watched the approaching vehicle intently. "The governor's carriage!" he said. "Haven't you ever heard of the gov­ ernor's carriage?" "No." 'That's because he hasn't used It lately; but In her ladyship's day--" "Her ladyship?" 'The governor's lady--he bought it for her. But she soon got tired of it-- or perhaps didn't like the way the people looked at her!" roughly. "Mon bleu! perhaps they did scowl a lit­ tle--for it didn't please them, I can tell you!--the sight of all that gold squeezed from the taxes!" "Where is he going now?" "Nowhere himself--he never goes far from the Mount. But the Lady Elise, his daughter--some one in the village Was saying she was going to Paris--" "Paris!" The lad repeated the word quickly. "What for?" "What do all the great lords and nobles send their children there for? To get educated--married, and--to learn the tricks of the court! Bah!" With a coarse laugh the man turned; stooping beneath his load, he moved grumblingly on. The boy, however, did not stir; as in a dream he looked first at the Mount, a dark triangle against the sky, then at the carriage. Nearer the latter drew, was about to dash by, when suddenly the driver, on his high seat, uttered an exclamation and at the same time tugged hard at the reins. The vehicle took a quick turn, lurched dangerously in its top-heavy pomp, and almost upsetting, came to a standstill nearly opposite the boy. "Careless dog!" a shrill voice screamed from the lnsjde. "What are you doing?" "The lises, your Excellency!" The driver's voice was thick; as he spoke he swayed uncertainly. "Lises--quicksands--" "There, your Excellency," indicating a gleaming place right in their path; a'small bright spot that looked as if it might have been polished, while elsewhere on the surrounding Bands tiny rippling parallels caressed the eye with streaks of black and silver. "I saw it in time!" "In time!" angrily. "Imbecile! Didn't you know it was there?" "Of course, your Excellency! Only I had misjudged a little, and--" The man's manner showed to* was fright­ ened. "T8"1 "Falsehoods! You have been drink­ ing! Don't answer. You shall hear of this later. Drive around the spot." "Yes, your Excellency," was the now sober and subdued answer. Didn't Get the Present. When a" t|irae-year-old girl who lives in Twenty-fourth street waa ad­ vised by her mother that the next day was the day to go to Sunday school, she opened her large, blue eyes wide and rather forlornly remarked, "Every Sunday when they call my name I say 'Bresent,' but they haven't given it to me yet. In the same Sunday school, not long ago, Mrs. Thomas R. Marshall was teaching the Sunbeam class a lesson on King David, and, endeavoring to see how much of her instruction of the previous Sunday had not been lost, asked: "Who was our lesson about last Sunday?" No answer. "Don't you remember the handsome young man we talked about?" After a few moments one little hand went uff. "Well, Mary?" asked Mrs. Marshall. "I don't remember his name," said Mary, "but he was the boy that killed the jW^Uffi"--»lndianapoUs •••• r~ < ?k Gloomy. ^ Ttjp wtgtit Who's subject to the "*^!u<s,** ly^'cr pictures tlfe tfl gorgeous huna. , Instead 0' that, wltit doleful sighs ' H« contemplates tb« cloudless skies. Ere he obeyed, however, the car­ riage door, from which the governor had been leaning, swung open. "Wait!" he called out impatiently, and tried to close it, but the catch-- probably from long disuse--would not hold, and, before the liveried servant perched on the lofty carriage behind had fully perceived the fact and had recovered himself nafflcienUy CHAPTER IV.

"Eh?" my lord turned tharply.' "An impudent lad who Btopped the Lady Elise!" exclaimed the; fat man --surely Beppo--on the front seat. ' "Stopped the Lady Elise!" The governor repeated the words slowly; an ominous pause was followed by an abrupt movement on the part of tha child. "He did not stop me; It waa I who nearly ran over him, and it was my fault. Beppo does not toll the truth-- he's a wickea man!--and I'm glad I'm not going to see him any more! And the boy wasn't impudent; at least until Beppo offered tc strike him, and then, Beppo didn't! Beppo." de­ risively, "was afraid!" "My lady," Beppo's voice was soft and unctious, "construes forbearance for fear." "Step nearer, boy!" Partly blinded by the lamps, the lad obeyed; was cognizant of a piercing scrutiny; two hard, steely dyes that seemed to read his inmost thoughts; a face, indistinguishable but compell­ ing; beyond, something white--a girl's dress--that moved and fluttered! "Who is ho?" "A poor boy who lives Mr the woods, papa!" But Beppo leaned forward and whis­ pered, his words too low for the lad to catch. Whatever his information, the governor started; the question­ ing glance on an Instant brightened, and his head was thrust forward close to the boy's. A chill seemed to pass over the lad, yet he did not quail. "Good-by, boy!" said the child, and, leaning from the window, smiled down at him. He tried to answer, when a hand pulled her in somewhat over-suddenly. "Drjye on!" Again the shrill tones and at an hour out of the ordinary, and then among the dwellers on the shore, there were those who prog­ nosticated dire unhappiness, * telling how the sea had once devoured two villages overnight, and how, beneath the sands, were homes intact, with the people yet in their .beds, . Concerned with a disordered social system and men in and out of dun­ geons, the governor had little time and less inclination to note the car prices of the tide or the vagaries of the strand. The people! The menac­ ing and mercurial ebb and flow ot their moods! The maintenance of autocratic power on the land, and, a more difficult task, on the sea--these were matters of greater import than the phenomena of nature whose pur­ poses man is powerless to shape or onrb. My lady, his daughter, how­ ever, who had Just returned from seven years' schooling at a convent and one year at court where the queen, Marie Antoiaatte, set the fa&Lion of gaiety, found in the conduct of their great neighbor, the ocean, a source of both entertainment and instruction for her guests, a merry company transported from Versailles. "Is it not a sight well worth see­ ing after your tranquil Seine, my Lords?" she would say with a wave of her white hand toward the restless sea. "Here, perched in mid air like eagles, you have watched the 'grand tide,' as we call it, come in--like no other tide--faster than a horse can gallop! Where else oould you w{tp ness the like?" "Nowhere. And when it goes out--" "It goes out so far, ydu can no longer see it; only a vast beach that reaches to the horizon, and--" "Must be very dangerous?" "For a few days, perhaDs; later, not at all, when the petltes tides are the rule, and can be depended on.

She thought she was to have a ohance to make herself the best looking lioness that the city ever owned, but the keepers couia not see It that way. As a result Miss Fulton threatened a hunger strike, hut* un­ like the suffragettes, could not with­ stand the smell of food. Miss Fulton was asleep in her cage the outer day when a young women entered the lion house. She carried a large black handbag on which were the initials in geld "N. T." Miss FuJ- 1 ton had one of heir forepaws resting against the front bars of the cage and the woman could not resist reach­ ing over the railing to tickle the lioness' toes. She did not know how quick a lioness could move and in a second Miss Fulton had snatched the bag and pulled it through the bars. One bite and the bag was ifi halves. Out rolled a set of false teeth, a powder puff, a bundle of hair pins, a picket mirror, some false hair and a silk remnants. George Slckert, one of the keepers, was appeated to by the owner of the handbag and with an iron rake got what was, left of it and its contents out of the cage.

The giving of applause in the Brit­ ish house of commons has attained' the dignity of a science. A cheer from a single member is not infrequent, but has little significance unless it comes from an important personage. It is cheering In chorus that constitutes the British demonstration. f The tone of the cheering varies ac­ cording to the temper of those who cheer. First, there is the hearty, full- voiced cheer of genuine approval, re­ sounding, awakening the echoes and full of encouragement. Next comes the low/ subdaed cheer, gradually spreading along all the benches, indicating the deep-seated agreement that does not seek vocifer­ ous or hilarious expression. This is employed either on. solemn occasions or in moments of pathos or in ac­ knowledgment of some confession on the part of an opponent Ironical cheering is often heard In the commons. The tone of sarcasm is always unmistakable. Often it Is the greeting accorded tp an argument or a statement by an opponent, for the formal denying of which there may not be an opportunity. It Is hostile but frequently good natured enough. As an intensification of this there is the sarcastic cheer, far sharper and more Incisive. Mingled with laugh* ter, it is, from the British standpoint, as disconcerting to the speaker as anything may well be. . ' Progress.
