SYNOPSIS

Chapter I-D'Auriac commanding out
post where scene is laid tells the story.
De Gomeron has been appointed by Gen.
de Rome to examine into a charge made
against him. Nicholas, a sergeant, brings
in two prisoners, a man and a woman, who
are from the kings camp at lie Fere.
D'Auriac, ,angered by insulting manner of de
Gomeron toward the woman, strikes him.
A duel follows, and during the commotion
the prisoners escape. DE Rome happens on
the disorderly scene, and d'Auriac, upon
giving his parole not to attempt escape,
hears this remarkable sentence: "To-mor-
row you must die on the field. Win or
lose. II | catch you at the close of the day,
I will hang you as high as Haman."
Chapter II-D'Auriac next morning takes
his place as usual on de Rone's staff. In
the course Of his ride over the field he saves
the life of Nicholas, the sergeant, who,
victim OF de Gomeron's malice, Is found In
imminent danger Of almost instant death.
Chapter III-After the BATTLE In wpich
King Henry utterly routs de Rones forces,
dA'uriac, lying severely wounded, sees
the forms Of a man and woman moving
under cover of the night among the dead
and wounded. They find a golden collar
on ue Leyva's rpse,and Babette stabs
Mluginot (her partner to gain possession
Of the prize. After this hideous scene
Henry with retinue, among whom is the
fair prisoner who had escaped from the
hand of de Gomeron rides over the field.

Ste GeneVieVe discovers his unknown
friend Is the heiress OF Bidache. She vis-
its him daily, and when he Is well enough
is taken to her Normandy chateau. Here
he learns from Mafre Pain, the madameS
chaplain, that the king is about to force
upon the woman a very distasteful mar
riagc with NJ. d'Ayen. With Jacques, his
steward, d'Auriac leaves for the avowed
purpose Of preventing their marriage.

shoe This causes a delay at village OF
Ely, whre he comes upon Nicholas his
old sergeant, who says de Gomefon IS in
the ncighborhood with the kings ccmmis-
sion, and that he (NichDlas) has evidence
Of treason brewing among de Gomeron and
certain associates against the king.
Chapter VI-Led by Nicholas, dAuriac
goes by night to where de Gomeron is sta
toned. Standing beside a broken pane
they hear something OF the outline Of plot
against the king. Burning with revenge.
Nicholas fires through the window at de
Gomeron, but misses his mark.
Chapter NII-The two men fly for their
lives, and think themselves a,moSt beyond
pursuit when they come suddeniy face to
face with Biron, one of the traitors to the
king, whom d dAIrriac cuts down, and with

Nicholas. D'Auriac escapes.

FREE TO MILLIONS OF
SUFFERERS.
The New Cure for kidney, BIaddcv
and Uric Acid Troubles

Almost everybody who reads the
newspapers is sure TO know of Swamp
Root, the great Kidney remedy.
1t is the great medical triumph Of the
nineteenth century; discovered after
years of scientific research by the em-
inent kidney and bladder specialist, DR..
Kilmer, and has truly wonderful pow
ers in curing kidney, liver, bladder and
uric acid diseases.
Kidney trouble irresponsible for more
sickness and sudden deaths than any
other disease, and is so deceptive that
thousands have it without knowing it.
Thousands owe their health and even
life to oSwamp-Root, and thousands more
who to-day think themselves beyond
help, can be made well by the use Of
this great remedy.
Swamp-Root has been tested in SO
many ways in hospital work, in private
practice, among the helpless too poor to
purchase relief, and has proved so sue
cessful in every case. that special ar
rangement has been made by which all
readers of this paper. who have not al,
ready tried It, may have sample bottle
sent absolutely free by mail. Also a
book telling more about swamp Root
and containing some OF the thousands
upon thousands of testimonial letters
received from men and women who owe
their good health, in fact, their very
lives, TO the wonderful curative proper
ties of Swamp-Root. BE sure and mem
tion this paper when sending your ad-
dress to DR.. Kilmer g. Co., Binghamton,
N. Y.
If you are already convinced that
Swamp-Root is what you need. you can
purchase the regular fifty-cent and one
dollar size bottles at drug-stores.

Last fall our own iuimitable George A.
jerks, of whom we are all justly proud,
went up and down the highways and by
ways of this great Commonwealth telling
the people that the one all-important
thing for the voter to do was to throw off
the incumbus of Quayism which had fas-
tened itself upon the Government. He
had no personal ambition. His only care
was for his beloved State. He would do
anything, however, ALTO help
his fellow citizens, Republicans and DEM
ocrats alike, to slaughter the Hydra
which ravaged their country. But later
when the Democrats in the legislature
could have elected a Senator by joining
their forces with the boiling Republicans
we failed to hear that Mr.. jerks called
his followers together and said, "Gentle-
men; You have shown your loyalty to
the nominee of your party by voting for
me many times. 1t is apparent that |
cannot be chosen. You have still a more
important duty TO perform, that of rid
ding our beloved Commonwealth of
Quayism. now release you from fur
ther obligations to vote for me, and ask
you to unite with the anti-Quay forces
and elect a Senator who is the avowed en-
emy ofthe machine On the other hand,
too, ifthe caucus boilers were sincere in
their declarations that the State was being
literally devoured, boots and breeches,
by the monster known as "Quayism,"
why did they not turn in and vote for
Mr.. jerks? He wouldn't eat anybody.
Verify there is good deal of cant and
bluster in this world, and the Pharisees
of politics are not among the least of the
offenders.

SENATOR TELLER says the gold Demo-
Gratis will support the Republicans in
1900 as they did in 1896. There is strong
probability that the Senator is correct on
this point. Bryan is making the task of
the gold Democrats toward joining the
Republicans very easy. The gulf at the
present moment between Bryan and Per-
ry Belmont, the head of the New York
Democratic Club, lis as broad as it was be-
tween Bryan and Palmer or Cleveland in
the campaign of 1896. Palmer and Cleve-
land threw up their hats when they
heard, on the night of November 8, 1896,
that the Republicans had swept the
country. They will, for precisely SINH
reason, shout on the night of November
9, 1900, when the telegram brings the
news of the overwhelming Republican
victory.

"JoHN p, ALTGELD is no longer DEM
ocrat," says Carter Harrison, "and he is
not entitled to sit even in the gallery of
the next Democratic National Conven-
ton" Ifit be true that Altgeld is going
to be driven out of the Bryanite party,
then so much the worse for the Bryan
ties. Estimated on the basis of political
morality, Altgeld is not altogether ad-
mirable. He has brains, however, a COM
modify which Bryan and his assistants
lack. Harrison may be able, with the as
sistauce of Bryan, to run Altgeld out of
the party. But the chief sufferer by this
expulsion will not be the man who is
run out. Altgeld can get along without
the Bryanite party better than the Bry-
ante bosses can get along without Alt
geld.
