As for Mile. Marsy, ii is probable that
her association with the Coincide Fran
caise. including her dividends and her
salary, do not yield her over 5000 a
year The actress lives in a small house
the villa Fanny, just outside Amelie-
les Bains-on the Palalda roads. 1t is
a charming, secluded spot, surrounded
by thick woods. 1t was here that Max
Lebaudy spent his last day, after the
military authorities were at length Cbut
too latc) aroused to the critical condi-
ton of his health, long since under
mined by the rigorous discipline and
brutal neglect under which he had suf-
fered in the army. He lived in the mil
itary hospital near his sylvan retire
ment very simply. Most Of his time
was spent i'm driving through the coun-
try roads with Mile. Marsy. He de-
sired no other companionship. Many
were the friends from Paris who pre-
scented their cards at the Villa Fanny
and the hospital, but all were politely
turned away. NJ. Lcbaudy. was too i'll
to receive.
And so he was the poor little Sugar
Bowl" It was a wreck, nothing more.
that the military authorities had yield
ed up for a brief spell to the care of
Mile. Narsy. He was a wan shadow of
his former self. this emaciated victim
of rabid socialist and scheming black
trembling hands and his frightened
pleading eyes. And he did not forget
the woes of others, though perhaps less
unfortunate than himself. Time and
again he sent money to the mayor Of
Amelie-les- Bains, to be distributed
among the poor of the commune. Mile.
Marsy nursed him devotediy. She never
left his side. And so e1icacious were
her ministrations, and the balmy air of
the place, that the boy gathered more
strength than he had known for
months.
That was his undoing. When the
track Of the velodrome at Amelie-les-
Bains had been repaired at his own
expense, he could not forbear to ride
bicycle once mOTe-an amusement of
which he had always been passionately
fond-and then, the sporting spirit re-
asserting itself, he entered into a
match race. with pacemakers, with an
other cyclist. For an hour he pedaled
madly around the track. Then, after
the race was over, he returned TO the
villa Fanny, but had hardly entered
the door when he tainted in Mills. Mar
sys arms.
And Max Lebaudy's prosecutors? 1t
is at least satisfactory to know that the
first few of what may prove a large
crop Of arrests Of blaclmailing journal
lists and others implicated i'm his ill
treatment, are already announced.
