CHAPTER XIV.

And now, after having accused DAN
tin of lying, believing that ne was act
ing comedy, after smiling disdainful-
ly at that common inventions vow
which one could not break-the percep-
ton of possibility entered the magis-
trate's mind that this man might be
sincere. Hitherto he had closed his
heart against sympathy for this man
They had met in mutual hostility.
The manner in which Jacques Dan
tin approached the question. the resolu-
ton with which he spoke, no longer
resembled the obstinate attitude which
he had before assumed in this same
room.
Reflection, the prison-the cell, with
out doubt-a frightful and sitting cell
had done its work. The man who had
been excited to the point of not speak
ing now wished to tell all.
YES" he said, "since nothing has
happened to convince you that am not
lying"
Il am listening to you" said the
magistrate.
Then in a long, close conference
Jacques Dantin told M. Ginory his
story. He related how from early youth
he and Revere had been close friends
of the warm affection which had always
existed between them; of the shams and
receptions of which he had been guilty
of the bitterness of his ruined life; of
an existence which ought to have been
beautiful and which so useless the life
of viveur, had almost made him
why?-how?-through need of money
and lack of moral sense, descend to
crime.

The Emperor Makes and Unmakes Coos
at His Own Sweet Pleasure.


In China the emperor claims power, not
only over his subjects (and indeed, for
that matter, the whole inhabited WORLD,
but also over the realms of departed spir
its. These he beatifles, canonizes, decorates
with titles, mentions with approval in the
Picking Gazette when they do anything to
deserve that honor and actually degrades
and uncanonizes If he sees just cause. For
example, the Emperor Hieng- Fung elevat-
ed the god Of war to an equal rank with
Confucius, who previously had been chief
among the state gods
Sir Alfred Lyall has drawn attention to
some amusing extracts from the Peking
Gazette, illustrating the way in which the
Chinese treat their deities. Thus The Ga
zette of November, 1873, has the follow
ing:
1.-THE governor general of the Yellow
river requests that tablet may be put up
in honor of the river god. He states that
during the transmission of the relief rice
to Honan, whenever difficulties were en-
countered through shadows, wind or rain,
the river god interposed in the most I'M
mistakable manner, so that the transport
Of grain went on without hindrance. Or
der Let the proper officer prepare tablet
for the temple of the river god"
In April, 1880, the god Of locusts was
similarly rewarded. A month or two
earlier the temple of the Sea Dragon Mt
Hoyang was decreed a memorial board for
services rendered in connection with rain,
and in another Gazette the god of water
is given new temple by special rescript
All this procedure Is thoroughly In keep
ing with the notions of the common peo-
pie Of China, who look upon the gods sim
ply as human beings in different set of
conditions. -Contemporary Review.

The man still hesitated.
Monsieur, he asked, twill any
word said here be repeated-ought it or
must it be repeated-in a courtroom at

"That depends, said M. Ginory
"But what you know you owe to JUS
tice, whether it be revelation, an ac-
cusation or a confession. ! ask it of

Still Dantin hesitated. Then the
magistrate spoke these words: II de-

honor rather than to magistrate TO

Charles Prades was certainly the man
who sold the portrait
Nothing could be proved except that
the two men had never met No sign of
emotion showed that Dantin had ever
seen the young man before. The latter
alone betrayed himself when he was 20
ing to Mazas with the original of the
portrait painted by Baudry.
But however, as the magistrate I'M
derlined it with precision, the fact alone
of recognizing Dantin constituted
against Prades a new charge. Added to
the testimony. 10 the formal affirmation
of the shopkeeper, this charge became
