"Tdke care achut yOaI're about"
Having thus settled their little differ
ences of opinion, Remond went on to ex-
plain his plan. He reminded his confed-
crate Of the bunch of keys which Charles
had left with Pierre and which contained
key for each room in the house, each
key with its own label attached. They
knew from the directions which they had
overheard Charles give Pierre as to the
distribution of the rooms which room M.
Germenil would occupy. The first thing
to be done was, having engaged room
for themselves, to obtain access to the
bunch of keys and take off the one which
opened M. Germenil's door. It would
probably require some adroitness in or
der to get possession of the key, but sure
ly between them they ought to easily out
wit villageois like Pierre. The key
once in their possession the rest would be
easy enough. As soon as the house was
quite quiet and every one fast asleep
''and these country folks sleep sound
they would by means of the stolen key
enter M. Germenil's room, possess them
selves of the precious booty, and then
hey for the road!
Remond calculated that, considering
early country hours and the fatiguing
busy day they had had, the household
would be fast asleep by II o'clock, and
that at 10 o'clock at latest they ought to
be able to carry out their plan and be of,
which would give them good six hours
start before M. Germenil would be likely
to discover his loss, to say nothing of the
time it would take to communicate with
the gendarmes and the time that would
be wasted deciding in which direction
the search should be pursued.
"But," said Bertrand, ''supposing that
NJ. Germenl were to awaken, and seeing
strangers in his room were to call for
help. We would be trapped then"
"Bahv' said the other, .'you are en-
betant with your imaginary difficulties!
He won't waken up!'
"How can you answer for that?' said
Bertrand.
"He won't awaken, tell you," said
Remond in savage tone and with the
same look in his eyes as when his compan-

of this. I'm tired of your cowardly fear.
Come, now, and let us engage room
and see how the land lies and if we can
get chance Of securing the key. Sum-
mon your courage now and put a bold
face on it. Above all, we must not seem
as if there was anything to trouble us OF
anything we need fear. If suspicion is
once excited, no one knows how it will
end. Assurance, mon ami, and audacity
that's our cue. If they make any diff

can show our passports as guarantee
Of our respectability our respectability,
my friend, do you 'hear?-though must

himself in surly undertone.

The other made no answer, but sat
silent, thinking with an expression on
his face which would not have reas-

Of his money could he have seen it.

ion was made Of he decided that on the
whole his best plan would be to remain.

BKEcKENRIDGEs CASE ARGUED

Condition of the Docket VIII Not Allow
Trial for Two Years.
WASHINGTON, Sept 21.-The demurrer
fled by Col. w. c. P. Breckenridge to
the suit OF Miss Madeline v. Pollard
against him for $4,000 damages for
breach of promise of marriage and Sc
duction was argued in the District
court to-day before Judge Cox by Mr..
Enoch Totten, on behalf of Congress-
man Breckenridge and by Jere M.
Wilson and Calderon Carlisle for Miss
Pollard.
Totten claimed that there could be
hut one contract of marriage and there
fore one promise was all that was neces-
sarY to aliege. Hence in setting out
more than one in the same declaration
the plaintiff made it faulty and bad in
substance.
The court overruled the demurrer
and directed the case to be set for trial
on lis merits The condition of the
docket is such that it is not expected
the case will be reached for two years.

Some time ago l stated in this CORE
spondence that Mr.. Eppa Hunton, Jr.,
son of tho Senator, would probably
come to the House as floater delegate
from Fauquier and Loudoun. Mr..
Hunton was nominated on Saturday
and this is equivalent to election.
He will have charge of his fathers
campaign when the Senatorial contest
opens up among the Democratic mem.
bers of the general assembly. Mr..
Hunton is one of the shrewdest young
politicians Of the Eighth district and is
hard fighter. That district will come
here practically solid for Hunton for
both the long and short terms, and he
is going to be very much in the race
unless all political signs fail.
