ling for two days with the problem of
what disposition TO make of the Lena,
officials of the state, navy and COM
merce and labor departments have
turned the whole matter over to the
president.
Horton Receives Report.
Washington, Sept. 13.-Secretary
Morton today received from Admiral
Goodrich of San Francisco a report
stating that the inspection of the Rus
sian ship Lena yesterday shows she is
genuinely in need of repairs. The re
port shows that temporary repairs of
the boilers and machinery of the Lena
would require about six weeks time.
The indications are that temporary re-
pairs will be allowed.
Fate Depended Report.
San Francisco. Sept. 13.-The United
States inspectors of hulls and boilers
have been ordered to make a thorough
examination of the Lena, the Russian
cruiser that arrived in port Sunday,
and on their report will largely depend
the duration of the stay of the vessel.
If it is decided that the repairs are re-
quired they will be made as rapidly as
possible. and it is generally anticipated
that this is what will be done. The
Lena occupied a position only 500
yards from the big guns of the battle
ship Ohio.

Navigation Officer Specimen said
concerning the visit o. the Lena: I'VE

troops home when the war should be
over. The Lena is not a warship. We
cannot fight. Needing repairs we were
first ordered back 10 the Baltic. At
terwards these orders were changed
and we have come here because it is
the nearest port in which we could get
the new boilers we need
May DismantIe the ship.
Being asked how long he would re-
main here officer Specimen said: I'VE
expect orders from our naval repre-
sentative at Washington who has just
been advised of our arrival. 1t is prob
able that he will ask the American
government for its permission to re-
move the guns from our decks and al
low the vessel to remain here until the
repairs can be finished.
Until War Is Ended.
When asked how long he thought
that would require he said: The
Lena will probably remain here until
the war is over. We expect the Off

'Ah, that is well. Now you know

got declared fervently.
1t was toward sunset that same day
when Jean came running in to an
nounce that he had seen soldiers rid
ing up the winding roadway that led
through the park.
Bidding the boy keep out of sight
until the cause of such visit could
be ascertained, Monsieur lie Baron de-
scended to the reception-room. where
the officer in command of the SOL
diers soon presented himself, and de-
livered letter from Couthon, in
which the baron's hospitality was re-
quested for the bearer and his escort.
The fact was that Etienne, recently
angered by his fathers refusal to in
crease his already liberal allowance
had, with characteristic villany, let
fall some insinuations impeaching the
latter's loyalty to the Revolutionary
cause; and the officer. who had been
ordered upon mission which would
take him several leagues beyond the
chateau, was instructed to stop there
upon his return. the object being that
the Committee might. from the man
ner in which the baron received his
unlimited guests, form better idea
as to his true sentiments.
Jean did not deem it wise to pre-.
sent himself until the dinner hour

CHAPTER II.

Through the weeks of the late sum-
mer old Tatro, the butler, had been
attending the meetings held by the
peasants. But. being a firm believer
in the old regime, he had reported
faithfully to Monsieur lie Baron all
that had transpired at these gather
ings, telling him of the vicious
speeches made by Fauchel, and of the
latter's evident determination to in
ftuence the peasants against the peo-
pie of the chateau.
On a certain September morning,
after one OF these reports from Tatro,
the baron said, Find Margot, and
send her to me-"
When the faithful old servant had
left the room his master looked out
of the window toward the park; but
his darkly circled eyes saw something
quite different from the trees silhouet-
ted against the cloudless blue of the
sky.
They saw the pale. angry face of
Tomas Fauchel the young schoolmas-
ter. who, meeting the baron as he
came from the magistrates door with
the pretty, sixteen-year-old daughter
of the Huguenot minister clinging to
his arm, had said, as he barred their
way, To-day. Monsieur lie Baron, you
have won, and have taken for wife
her whom her dead father gave to me
when he refused you, Papist. But
warn you to beware of the day when
| shall seek my revenge."
The baron, in the strength of his
vigorous manhood, and in the happy
dreams of his passionate love, had
laughed at the melodramatic threat
of his humble rival. And to-day,
white-haired and lonely, he smiled
disdainfully as he recalled it.
But the smile died softly in a sigh
that was almost moan, as thought
of the narrow mound he had looked
upon the spring before, banked with
violets and snowdrops. in the old
churchyard by the Loire, near the
cottage where he had known a brief
years dream of happiness.

should arrive, but had passed the
time in questioning Margot ana Tatro
as to the probable meaning of this
strange invasion of the chateau's pri-
vacy. Then, going in to the dining
room with an unusually subdued air,
although his heart was futtering with
excitement, the lads shyness evapo-
rated in glad shout at sight of the
officer standing before the fireplace,
where burning logs made cheerful the
apartment and warmed the chill even

cheeks, while the baron looked on
with amazement, and old Tatro
paused in the report he was making
as to the soldiers dinner in the outer
hall, to stare with equal surprise at

tween the stranger and his masters
son.
When they were seated the officer
explained to Monsieur lie Baron-al-
though in way not to bring in the
name of Etienne-how he had come
to know the boy; and Jean, now quite
in his element, and entirely at ease,
ratified on after fashion that relieved
his father from any extra effort in en-
tertaining his guest.
1t was nearing ten o'clock. The of.
ficer and his host were seated in the
drawing-room, having game of chess,

hours suffice to turn affairs from ap-
parent security into confusion and
danger. I wish, therefore, to place a

The baron was now standing by the
side of his desk; and pressing the
edge of a panel in the oaken vain
scoting. it flew open. disclosing
small recess, wherein were a small
metal box and a number of little can
vas bags.
Come here" he said, turning to
look at Margot over his shoulder.
She came to his side.

Hartman received the following let.
ter:
"My wife has been a sufferer from
a complication OF diseases for the past
twenty-five years. Her case has baf-
fled the skill of some of the most
noted physicians. One of her worst
troubles was chronic constipation Of
several years standing. She was also
passing through that most critical
period in the life of a woman-change
of life.
"In June, 1895, wrote to you about
Peruna and Manalin, which we at
once commenced. and have to say 1t
completely cured her.
about the same time l wrote you
about my own case of catarrh, which
had been of twenty-five years stand
ing. At times was almost past going.

to your Instructions and continued its

plefely cured me. Your remedies do
