The Fate OF General Miguel Lopez.
Who Betrayed Emperor Mammalian.
Ii is now fully quarter OF century
since the msrciful dispensation of Provi-
dence so clouded the Empress Carlotta's
mind that she was spared a single pang
of grief when her royal husband was
slaughtered in Mexico.
For nearly generation the widow of
the unfortunate Maximilian has re-
manned in ignorance of his fate. But
slowly, and by almost imperceptible de-
grees, her mind has become clarified,
and she is once more in the enjoyment
of her faculties. Looking backward
through the long years of darkness, that
sad Mexican business in which she
played the part of heroine seems TO her
nearly dream. 1t. is well that il is so.
Carlotta is not an old woman, she is
hardly 40, and something in her future
may yet compensate her for her bitter
past.
But the same day that her recovery
was announced also brought the intelli-
gence that General Miguel Lopez had
been bitten by mad dog and was under
the Pasteur treatment.
This Lopez was the trusted officer who
betrayed Maximilian TO his bloodthirsty
enemies-the wretch whose evil work
caused Carlotta's insanity. After living
all these long years, despised by even
his own countrymen, and scorned by
his wife for his treason, he has perhaps
met his doom. But whether he re-
covers or not what fate could be more
fitting for this false friend, who sold his
benefactor
Time brings its revenges. AS the
traitor Lopez sinks out of sight in the
lurid shadows now descending upon him,
his victim Carlotta comes once more
into the light of day, serenely beautiful,
once more herself, the most charming
woman that has worn crown since
Eugene in her happiest days. Dissolv-
ing views-lights and shadows-they
make up lifel-I Atlanta Constitution.

Sometimes a flash Of sunlight, again the drift

Sometimes IL seems to borrow from the crim-

Sometimes black with thunder, then changed

Sometimes as false as Satans. sometimes as

Only the same old storyl But, o. how the

Prophet and priest and peasant.s soldier and

Sometimes the warmest hAnd-clasp leaves in

with passions rife,
