CHAPTER l.
I believe that the last story that I told
you, my friends. was about how 1 received
at the bidding of the emperor the cross for
valor which 1 had, if l may be allowed to
say so, SO long deserved. Here upon the
lapel of my coat you may see the ribbon,
but the medal itself l keep in leathern
pouch at home, and l never venture to
take it out unless one of the modern peace
generals. some foreigner of distinction
who finds himself in our little town, takes
advantage of the opportunity to pay his
respects to the well-known Brigadier
Gerard Then 1 place it upon my breast,
and / give my mustache the old Marengo
twist which brings gray point into either
eye. Yet. with it all, l fear that neither
they, nor you. either my friends. will ever
realize the man that I was. You know me
only as a civlian-with an air and manner,
it is true-but still merely as a civilian.
Had you seen me as / stood in the doorway
Of the inn at Alamo on the first day of
July in the year 1910 you would then have
known what the hussar may attain to.
For a month I had fingered in that ac-
cursed village, and all en- account Of a
lance thrust in my ankle. which made 1t
ground. There were three of us at first
old Bouvet Of the hussars, Jacques Reg
nier of the cuirassiers and a funny little
voltigeur captain whose name I forget-but
they all got well and hurried on to the

STRONGEST LIGHT.
Electric Beam of 100000, 600 Candle

Electric Beam of 100000, 900 Candle
Power to Be Thrown 100 Miles.
THE most powerful light in the world is
now being set up on Fire Island, off New
York city, said an officer of the light
house board to a writer for The Star. ut
will be ready for business by July / next.
To ships 1t will be visible 100 miles out at
sea. 1 do not mean that the light itself
will be seen at that distance. for that
would be impossible. owing to the curva-
tcre of the earth, but the flash on the
clouds in the sky will be discerned. In
other words. from the point Of view of the
watchful skipper SO far from shore an in
termittent glare will be observed, as il
lightning were to show in the same quar-
ter OF the heavens at regular intervals of
five seconds. Passengers on transatlantic
steamers will thus receive cheering sig
nal of their approach to America.
THE light will be electric having a pow
er OF 6OOO,OO candles without the lens.
The lens, which was made in Paris, is of
enormous size-about ten feet in diameter
1t will Increase the power to $50, GOO 600 can
dies. 1t is called bivalve lens, being in
two halves like the shells of an oyster. The
convex halves are separated by a distance
sufficient to admit the body of man, SO
that the carbons and other apparatus be-
tween them may be got at. This double
lens and the whole mechanical continuance
supporting it rests in circular trough
filled with mercury. In fact, its entire
weight rests upon the liquid quicksilver,
so that it may be revolved almost without
friction. Ordinarily brass wheels are used
for revolving lights in lighthouses.
1.-The light is generated by enormously
powerful dynamos. OF the latter there are
two. so that. in case one breaks down, the
other may be used 1t is subject Of re-
greet to US that the lighthouse board is still
obliged to maintain the electrical light in
liberty's torch in the harbor Of New York.
1t is of no use worth mentioning to mar
liners, and 1t costs $1,000 a year. 1t used to
cost $4,000 per annum, but we have cut off
the electric search lights. which formerly
were employed to throw light upon the
statue and illuminate it. Liberty might be
Of some value for lighthouse purpose If she

which would have afforded a more suitable
location any way.
1.-The newspapers have made note recently
of whistling buoys, which are drifting about
the Atlantic-some Of them still whistling
and likely on that account to alarm mar
liners. 1t is not often that they get away
from their moorings. We could not afford
to have them do so, inasmuch as they are
very expensive. They cost $3.50 apiece"

TESS when one Is frightened. 1t may con-
sole some of you when your own nerves
play you tricks to remember that you have
heard even me, Brigadier Gerard say that
have been scared. And besides my terror
at this horrible attack, and the maddening
pain Of my wound, there was a sudden
feeling of loathing such as you might feel
were some filthy tarantula to strike it's
fangs into you. 1 clutched the creature in
both hands and hurting him onto the floor
of the coach ] stamped on him with my
heavy boots: He had drawn pistol from
the front of his soutane. but I kicked it
cut of his hand, and again 1 fell with my
knees on his chest. Then for the first time
he screamed horribly. while I. half blinded,
cunningly concealed. My hand had just
lighted upon it, and I was dashing the
blood from my face to see where he lay
that 1 might transtix him, when the whole
weapon was jerked out of my grasp by the
shock. Before 1 could recover myself the
door was burst open and 1 was dragged by
the heels onto the road.
CHAPTER II.
But even as was torn out onto the flint
stones and realized that thirty ruffians
Were standing around me, 1 was filled with
joy, for my pelisse had been pulled over
my head in the struggle and was covering
one of my eyes, and it was with my wound
ed eye that l was seeing this band Of brig
ands. You see for yourself by this pucker
and scar how the thin blade passed be-
tween socket and ball, but it was only at
that moment when l was dragged from the
coach that 1 understood that my sight was
not gone forever. The creatures intention
doubtless, was to drive it through my brain
and, indeed, he loosened some portion of
the inner bone of my head, so that after
ward had more trouble from that wound
than from any one of the seventeen which
l have received.
They dragged me out, these sons of dogs
with curses and excavations, beating me
