And Cecil know that it was hopeless either to persuade him to his own ad- vantage or to convince him of his dis- obedience in speaking thus of his su- promo before his noncommissioned 0f- ficei'.

Mean- while 'icpon's news was correct. “Those men are very stupid! They have not half the talent of that sol- dier!” she thought once, turning from a peer of France, an Austrian arch- duke and a Russian diplomatist. “Chateauroy and his chasseurs have an order to march ” a voice was say- ing that moment behind her chair. 7 “Oh, yes. The losses in men are im- mense, only the journals would get in grouble if they ventured to say so in France. How delicious La Doche is! She comes in again with the next scene." . The Princess Corona listened, and her attention wandered farther from the archduke to the peer and the di- plomatist as from the vaudeville. She ‘did not find Mme. Doche very charm- _ing, and she' was absorbed for a time looking at the miniatures on her fan. There was a variety of distractions to prevent ennui. There were half a dozen clever Paris actors playing that airiest of vaudevilles in the hijou the- ater beyond the drawing rooms; there were some celebrated Italian singers whom an imperial prince had brought over in his yacht; there was the best music; there was wit as well as hom- age whispered in her ear. Yet she was not altogether amused; she was a little touched with ennui. . At the same moment, through the lighted street§ of Algiers, Cigarette, 09.80"” Tlle regiment \ 'us ordered out on the march. There was from war in the interior, and wherever there was the hottest slaughter there the Black Hawk always flew down with his fal- con flock. When Cecil left his incorri- gible comrade. the trumpets were sounding an assembly. There were noise. tumult. e:1g::.~r::ess. excitement, delighted zest, on ewry side. A gener- al order was read to the enmptured squadrons. They were to leave the town at the first str m: of dawn. That evening at the Villa Aioussa there gathered a courtly assembly of much higher rank than Algiers "an commonly afford, because many of sta~ tion as lofty as her own had been drawn thither to follow her to What the Princess Corona called her banish- ment. h-V’ “There is always fighting here, I sup- “viiing you that trash, 11w. with forcdty. in.
