Third-party men present, but they re-
NAMED very quiet and had nothing to say.
There Is not single Ihlrd-party man III

exprimant lie sue d'herbes aromati-
ques don't ellie connaissait la puissance.
D'habitude la Zinearelle temoignait
une sorte de dedain a cette femme
don't la laideur ct les vices lui sem
blaient repoussants mais ce soirla.
ellie s'approcha de la vieille gitane
avec des sentiments tout autres, ct lul
dit dune voix suppliante
-Sauve-le, Maugrabine promets
moi, de lie sauver!
-Vraiment repondit la vieille
avec un ricanement railleur, il faut
rendre la vie a ce beau gentilhomme,
tandis que jamais tn mas daigne te
soucier dies gems de la bande revenant
a demi morris dune expedition. Je
ne sais ce que Gaspard pensera dune
semhlable preference
-Gaspard pensera ce quill voudra
repliqua Zingarelle avec emportement.
Je mai jamais rien demande pour ma
part de prise.
La Maugrabine eclata de rire, ct
son rire etait lugubre CONNIE un cri
d'orfraie dams la nuit.
-Je lie crois bien Orsol prend dix
parts en- qualite de capitaine, ct tous
les bijoux te reviennent. En- as-tu
de ces cha1nes, de ces pierreries. :.
Je suis sure que Notre- Dame de Zell

-Oui fit Zingarelle en- s'appro

miere blessure, la seule meme. Je ne
compte pas les egratignures, car il
semble, d'apres lie recit du lieutenant.
don't jai entendu quelques mots, que
ce gent!lhomme s'est battu contre les
notres avec un courage heroIque. Ce
trou a etc fait par unc epee; ii
s'agissait dun duel, ct rien ne peut
metre ses jours en- danger Seule-
ment le sang perdu ct rexces de la
fatigue ont jete ce gentilhomme dams
un reimbursement semblable 4 la
mort.
La vieille pansa la blessure du jeune
homme, puis ntrouvrant ses levres,
ellie lui versa dams la bouche quelques
gouttes dun elixir rouge don't les
gems de III bande connaissaient Jeff
cacite.
Scion la promesse de Maugrabine,
lie blesse ne tarda pas a ouvrir les
yeux.
II Sc souleva sur sa couche etroite ;;
puis ses regards interrogerent success
sivement les murs noirs de rexcava-

-On Susie +? demanda-t-il.
-Provisoirement en- sarete, repon-

ellie tira de son sein la cha1ne

, au jeune homme
Get objet vous appartient ?
-Oui repondit lie blesse.
De qui tenez-vous cette piece

De ma femme.
Madame Agnes vous etes le
mari d'Agnes de Haag?
-Oui, fit lie blesse
-J'ignore votre nom, reprit ls
Zingarelle, ct je ne veux PAS meme le
savoir. Tout ce que je puis vous
affirmer, c'est qua partir de cette
heurc vous etes sous ma protection.
Triste protection, n'est-ce pas, que
celle dune file de Boheme qui dol
