Cousin Philippe, this Is not our dauph-
in? Our dauphin is dead Both my father
and you told me he died in the Temple
prison nearly two weeks ago!' q
The Marquis de Terrier replaced the
boys stockings reverently, and rose, back
Ing away from him.
There is your king, Eagle" the old
courtier announced to his child. Louis
XVII, the son of Louis XVI. and Marie
Antoinette, survives in this wreck. How
he escaped from prison we do not know.
Why he is here unrecognized in England,
where his claim to the throne was duly
acknowledged on the death Of his father,
we do not know. But we who have often
seen the royal child cannot fail to identify
him; brutalized as he is by the past hor-
rible year Of his life"
The boy stood unwinkng before his
three expatriated subjects. Two of them
noted the traits of his house, even to his
ears, which were full at top, and without
any indentation at the bottom where they
met the sweep Of the jaw.
The dauphin of France had been the
most tortured victim Of his country 8
revolution. By a jailer who cut his eye
brow open with a blow, and knocked him
down on the slightest pretext,, the child
had been forced to drown memory In fiery
liquor, month after month. During six
worse months, which might have been
bettered by even such a pafler, hid from
the light in an airless dungeon, covered
| with rags which were never changed, and
with filth and vermin which daily accu-
mulated, having his food passed to him
through slit in the door, hearing no hu-
| man voice, seeing no human face his
joints swelling with poisoned blood, he
had died in everything except physical vi
tality, and was taken out at last merely
breathing corpse. Then it was pro-
claimed that his corpse had ceased to
breathe. The heir of a long line of kings
| was coffined and buried.
While the elder De Terrier shed nerv-
Gus tears, the younger looked on with eyes
which had seen the drollery Of the French
| revolution.
II wish knew the man who has played
! this clever trick, and whether honest men
! or the rabble are behind it,
Let us find him and embrace him."
| II would rather embrace his prospects
when the House Of Bourbon comes again
to the throne Of France. Who Is that
fellow at the gate? He looks as he had
| some business here"

with necessary roughness and had in
fact assaulted him with club. Chief Of

parted in samity, but tue man went to
the Grand Central and told thet he had
been assaulted by the policeman; Then
he got a friend and went to the mayors

investigation disclosed that the officer
had not erred. The man claimed he ia
