this town Of miracles Miss Kennedy en-
countered one of them.t 1t was a man
that was not brute. His name was
Joseph De Trouilly. He was thirty
five years Of age-that happy age of
vigor, without vacuity., He was tall,
and he had dark eyes and dark hair,
like an Oriental prince, according to
Miss Kennedy's nlaidenly dreams, for;
although she had been to Minneapolis,
she had 'never" even "seen the streets
of Cairo" In addition to his eyes and
his hair, De Trouilly, the prince-like,
had moustache. It was not Of the
same color with his hair, but that little
himself explained, was "a la Paris
ian," and Miss Kennedy believed him.
Neither was the mustache, as large as
those Of the princes. on the cover of
the Arabian Nights but ''n'importe!
she will grow. is it not?"' as it's bearer
remarked, and, of course, r'she" would.
De Trouilly was a genuine, Frenchman,
and a genuine FrenchTnan in Chicago
always comes from Paris. So also did
De Trouilly. What beautiful tales he
could repeat about those delightful
French experiences Of his-naughty-
yet not too much so-aud giddy youth
before he had met woman who could
ennoble his life, and fill him with lofty
and serious purpose. The confidential
Partisan did not altogether like Amer
lea, of course, except that the American
woman was the queen of her sex.
Therefore Monsieur Joseph would re-
tain the lucrative situation which he
held as credit man for "a large Kansas
City tobacco house lcng enough to as
sure his financial position. Then he
would take one of ices bellies Ameri-
Gaines back with him to adorn his
ancestral chateau This was presum-
ably true, for it was always like that
IN the very best novels, and besides
Miss Kennedy had met Monsieur De
Troullly at church fair. This historic
fact adds new charm to the church
fair, which has long been known as the
abiding place of the prettiest girls IN
any community.
Naturally when the foreign gentle
man was highly recommended to Miss
Kennedy by her friends she accepted
his attentions. Naturally she CORE
sponded with him after her return to
her St Paul home and her dressmak-
ing. Naturally also she agreed to mar
cuSS the arrangements when he came
up from Chicago or Kansas City on
several brief visits. 1t had been his de-
sire to wed his fiantee last Christmas,
but owing to Miss Annals strict adher-
ence to the practice of the Catholic
church he consented to wait until last
Wednesday. On Christmas therefore
the self-denying woman received, not
bridegroom, but big photograph, on
the back of which appeared the consof-
ing remark, This is your Trouilly."
She believed it trouiIly9 then, but now
she apprehends that. aheg is somebody
else's Trouilly. Afterslthe marriage
Wednesday Miss Kennedy drew from
the bank $1,000 left her recently at the
death of her mother and $500 which she
herself had saved. iiThis money she
took with her when she started the
same evening on a wedding trip to ST.
Louis and the South. She and cher
Troullly We're going to reside at Kan
sas City, at the ST. James hotel, where
De Trouilly had already engaged
rooms, despite the fact that the hotel
has been closed for two years Mr..
and Mrs. De Trouilly arrived Thursday
at the Laclede hotel in st. Louis. They
spent the entire day looking into each
others eyes and wondering how they
had contr1ved to lead contented lives
during the previous thirty years
Friday morning the happiest man at
the Laclede hotel said he must posi-
lively go down town long enough to
look up the standing of some firms
with whom his house did business. He
suggested about the same time that
he had better carry the roll of money
which his wife had hid = within the
bosom of her dress. He was used to
money, and could carry it more sue
cessfully. He said this in so manly
tone that his wife was convinced. She
is even more convinced at the present
time. Not only would he carry the
money but he would change it into
larger and more convenient bills while
he was down town. He went aWay
taking the money. But he experienced
so much difficulty with THE suspected
firms or the big Bills, that his bride
sat up all night waiting for his re-
turn. The next day she told the clerk
that she wished her. husband would
come back. The clerk told the police
and the police will tell DeTrouilIy as
soon as an OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Mrs.
De Trouilly waited until Sunday for
the delivery Of her message. She then
took s35, which she Md lremoved from
the roll, in order to Buy lSnick-knacks
for the room in the hotel that has not
been opened for years With this
