CHAPTER XXX.


The second return Of the army of the
princess into Bordeaux was very diff
fereut from the first There were
laurels for everyone Even Candles
rode side by side with Rayailly, and
was saluted as brave man, and a
good commander Certainly those who
had been in the first attack, particu-
larly those who had sustained any in
Jury. preserved some rancor against
their couqucror; but Candles was 50
handsome, and SO no"'ni he supported
as once SO gaily, yu- with 50 much
dignity his new posi- zion, that all else
was quickly forgotten. Besides, he
was after all. surrounded by old
friends.
Madame de Condo saw him pass,
from her window, and could not but
admire him They lodged him In the
great fortress and by day he had per
feet liberty to 20 where he pleased, on
his parole aud his undertaking not TO
correspond with any one out of the
city
Before taking this last oath, he had
requested permission to write one note
which was granted to him, and he
sent to Nanon the following;
"a prisoner, but free in Bordeaux on
my parole, and promise not 10 CORES

CHAPTER XXI.
Explanations.

Since Candles had arrived in Bor-
deaux, he had passed through many
torments of an unhappy love He had
seen Claire cout ted, and followed
without being able to take his own
place by her, and had had no consO-
lation, except stolen glance now and
then.
After the scene in the cave and the
ardent words of the vicomtesse, this
state Of things seemed not luke-warm,
but freezing. SJill, he knew, through
all that he was really loved. Thanks
to his promise not to correspond with
out the walls, he was easy, so far,
about Nanon and as she did not write
to him, he was spared much remOrSe
on account of his infdelity Still at
times he felt gloomy, and gave sigh
to Nanon and the joyous past.
Madame de Cambes remarked all
this, and she trembled to leave him
too much to himself Still she shrank
from ayowing her love for him, until
the remembrance of all the romantic
adventures in which She had been en-
gagged had little died away. Lenet had
penetrated her secret, and felt pleased
that the princess would one day gain
SO brave a commander.
VI. le Due de Ldrochefoucault was
quite as clear-sighted, and it would
have been difficult to say from his be
havior whether ne hated or loved

Candles passed "A restless night and

heavy blast set off in a quarry near

said, which broke down the telegraph
wires and started a colony Of black
snakes from their winter slumber in
a neighboring ledge. One of the wires
it appears, was crossed in a distant
city by a deadly trolley wire, and
hence the broken wires Is they lay in
a cart path near the snakes den, the
ends not more than two feet apart
constituted a death trap. ANY moist
living object touching the end Of both
wires at the same time would "short
circuit" them, carrying the electric
current from the crossed wire 10
the other. and incidentally sustaining
a shock fatal to life. The lineman cal
culated that the snakes started up the
cart path toward a brook after being
disturbed by the blast and as they
came to the wires trailing on the
ground, one after another crossed
over and "Short circuited' them. sus

reason why the smaller snakes were
not killed by the current was because
their bodies were not quite long enough
to reach from one wire TO. another

cult" Mr., Belden regards the line
mans idea as the correct one. He
counted eleven of the snakes which
were killed by the lightning. They
were from three to eight feet long.

appeared In the circle. At first, to see
Claire exchange a rev words with
her, or press her hand. rs she got into
the carriage, was the great event Of
his day. After a time, however, this
satisfied him no longer. Then, as
Claire feared more for his honor, than
for hers, if they appeared too intimate
he endeaYored to seek amusement else
where.
One day, when he went to church,
as usual, to offer the holy water 10
her she did not arrive, and he offered
Il instead to a charming woman, whom
he had not seen before. Ii was not
his fault, it was Claire's, for if she
had been there, he would have seen
no one lese. The next day he received
an invitation to pass the evening at
the house Of the advocate, General
Lavie, the person who had originally
opposed the entrance of the princess
into Bordeaux, and who was I'm the
interest Of NJ d'Epernon. Candles,
who felt more and more the want of
amusement accepted the invitation,
and on entering the room, was highly
pleased at finding in Madame Lavie,
his charming brunette of the day be
fore. He was soon surrounded witt,
homage enough to have turned the
heads Of the seven wise men Of Greece.
They compared his defence to that
Of Horatius Coolies, and his defeat to
that OF the taking Of Troy, through
the artifice Of Ulysses.

that you have been spoken OF at

Candles looked again at Madame dc
Layie, and said 81 assure you, not al
all Politics bore me- prefer making
love. / attach myself to no sovereign
but am the slave of all women"
Soon they sat down to play: Ma
dame Lavie was his partner, and they
