ulCuuO dSlocp upOIl d $ uIl CdIIldS0 WAS nothing compared to this marshal, stand ing so calmly before the billiard table at the very moment of action. Meanwhile, the uproar redoubled. With the cannon shots were mingled the roar of the mitrailleuses and the roll of the platoon musketry. A red smoke, black at the edges, mounted from the extremity of the grass plats. All the lower part of the park was in flames. The frightened peacocks and pheasants clamored in the aviary. The Arab horses, scenting the powder, pranced in the stables. The headquarters commenced to grow ex- cited. Dispatch followed dispatch. Con- riers arrived in hot haste. They de- manded the marshal.
 The marshal was inaccessible. Nothing could prevent him from finishing the game.
 "Your turn to play, captain"
 But the captains mind was elsewhere. So much for being young! He became confused, forgot his caution, and made two shots which nearly gave his oppo- nent the game. This time the marshal grew furious. Surprise and indignation burst forth on his manly visage. Just at this moment horse tore into the court yard at terrible pace and dropped dead. And aid-de-camp covered with mud forced the guard and leaped up the steps at a bound. Marshall Marshalp' he shouted. He met with rough recep- tion. Swelling with rage and purple in the face the marshal appeared at the window, his billiard cue in his hand.
 "What is the natter" he said. "What is it? Is there no sentinel on duty?"
 ''But, marshaP-
 'Very good - presently. Let them await my orders!'
 And he closed the window violently.
 Let them await his orders.
 They were doing that, the poor men. The wind drove the rain and shot full in their faces. Whole battaions were ex- terminated, while others stood useless, their weapons in their hands, unable to comprehend the reason of their inactivity. There was nothing for them to do. They were awai ing orders. But as one can die without orders, the men fell dead by hundreds, behind the bushes, in the ditches, before the silent grand chateau. Even when fallen shot tore them still, and from their gaping wounds the gen. erous blood of France flowed noiselessly.
 Above in the billiard hall things were coming to terribly close quarters, also. The marshal had resumed his advance, but the captain defended himself like lion. Seventeen? eighteen! nineteen" Scarcely had they time to mark the points. The noise of the battle came nearer The marshal had but one more to make. Already bombs had reached the park. One exploded over the pond. The mirrorike surface was convulsed, and terrified swan swam about in whirlpool of bloody feathers. It was the last shot.
 Then an oppressive silence. Nothing but the rain falling upon the hedges, a confused roll at the base of the hillock and on the soaked highways something like the batter of hurried flock of sheep. The army was in full flight, but the marshal had won his game.-Al- phonse Daudet.

feet cannot be rubbed out by hand mass

powder and toned down under the drapery
OF lace scarfs, dotted wells and hair fronts.
IL only remains to rub out the lines Of silver
from the back hair to convince society that
her devotee is not old.
There is scarcely a middle-aged woman
on the stage who has not been obliged to
color her hair, and the example set by the
actresses and singers who began their career

spinsters of society have followed. have
had my hands in the hair of nearly every
prominent singer and actress on the stage
aud have pulled the wool over the eyes of
half the women in the Four Hundred set.
Young women have their hair colored to
initiate their elders and old women to hide
the gray. Now, coloring hair is pretty
much like kalsominiug, and unless the oper-
ator understands the art the work will be
streaKy. This streakiness is what does the
mischief A woman finds that instead of a
copper color her hair is multicolor-chest-
nut. iron rust, sassafras aud mud>brown
alternating. This. of course, is annoying,
and results in making the victim the hab-
itue OF the hair establishments. She not
only goes from one house to another for
treatment, but gives herself shampoos with
washing soda, stroag ammonia, lye aud
other preparations in the hope of getting
one fast shade of red or brown.

The hair is generally straw-like or dead, the

In this business we become very we'll ac-
quainted with our patrons-that is to say,
with their defects, and frequently with
their skeletons. Although a woman may
not give us her name, we put initials, gossip
and random talk together and learn her
identity. You would be surprised to know
what very poor material society women are
made of. They have no hair, no complexion,
no figure. very little eyesight, and fire.

Miss Laramore Will Not Graduate
From the Girls High School.
Es,o,n Frid11,'s Atlanta Jo,trncJ

Miss Laramore Will Not Graduate
From the Girls High School.
From Fridays Atlanta Journal.
Miss Birdie Laramore will be among the
graduates of the girls high school tonight.
The board of education will meet this
afternoon at $3.50 O'Clock aud will sustain
the report of the committee. which investi-
gated the trouble which Miss Laramore had
with the principal of the girls high school,
AS so much interest has been manifested
the matter. the Journal will briefly state
the positions taken by both sides.
MISS LARAMoRE's SIDE.
Miss Lara more and her mother and
brother, Mr.. Quarles, contend that the
young lady is justly entitled to the first
honor, and that through the partiality of
the principal, Miss Nettie Sergeant, she has
been kept out Of her rights.
Mrs. Laremore says all she did was to 90
to Miss Sergeant and give her back the
bow of ribbon which had been given
Miss Birdie. She at the same time, ex-
pressed her opinion of the way things had
gone on.
Mr.. Quarles said he has only taken his
sisters part.
Miss Laramore. they contend, has done
nothing except asked to be excused from
wearing the second honor ribbon.
THE OTHER SIDE.
The members of the board of education
say that Miss Laramore is herself to blame
for all that has occurred: that she carried
the tales home which stirred up strife; that
she had trouble of the same kind last year
with Miss Galloway.
Besides. the board of education takes the
position that the parents must be reached
through the children.
Miss Laramore is not entitled to dis
ploma until the school is closed, which is TO-
night.
In other words, Miss Laramore has been
expelled for unruly conduct and for the
disturbances which her parent caused. The
board holds that it has the right to expel at
this time of the session.
TOO LATE TO APOLOGIZE.
Even if Mrs. Laramore and her daughter
and son should now decide to apologize,
they would probably not be allowed to do
SO. A member of the board of education
said to the Journal:
1.-THE time to apologize has passed. Miss
Laramore has been expelled, and she cannot
graduate We must uphold the teachers in
preserving order. We look carefully into
all complaints. We have q grievance con-
mittee especially for that purpose. In this
case Miss Laramore has been guilty of the
most unruly conduct, and we had to expel
her. At the same time we kindly gave her
an alternative, and that was for her and
her relatives to apologize to Miss Ser
geant."

RAIL AND CNOssTIR.

The Pennsylvania company has complet-
ed arrangements for the new fast trains
which, beginning to-day, will run between
Chicago and New York in either direction
in 2614 hours.
The Macon Telegraph says: Track laying
on the Macon, Dublin and Savannah rail-
road has progressed TO within ten miles of
Dublin, and Supt. Morse says that trains
will certainly be running to that point by
July |. The injunction applied for by the
Wrightsville and Tennille railroad will not
interfere at all with the Macon and Dublin's
main line, but concerns only the right of
way for side-track along a certain street.
The hearing of the injunction comes up
next Monday, when the question will proba-
bly, be decided, but, no matter what the de-
cision, it will have no effect whatever upon
the building Of theroad intoDublin. Property
along the Macon and Dublin's line is selling
