fully, when she repeatedly visited the

But perhaps the most remarkable exhi-

A Prisoner When Needed.
If the Empress was no coward neither
was Paul dc Cassagnac. He was brave
20 loolhardiness. Never in all his lie
was he afraid to reply TO an eEemy by
word or deed. When he was but TWEEN
ty-five ars old the Empress herself

though It is probable that the young
TTenchman would have volunteered for
the defense of his country under any
circumstances. He fought valiantiy
through the disastrous campaigns that
followed. and it was on his arm that
the Emperor, broken with ill.,ess and
suffering excruciating pain. entered his
carriage after the battle Of Sedan. De
CassaRnac was held prisoner with the
rest OF the army. For eight months, weary
months, when he wished TO be at the
side Of the Empress TO help her in her
hour OF need. he was detained IN Silisia.
When Eugenie went 70 the east 10
open the Suez Canal she had no inkling
that before another summer had passed
she would be an exile and wanderer
amid the roar OF cannon. But when the
war cloud arose on the horizon OF Eu-
rOpean politics she was ali for war. She
urged it upon the Emperor and upon his
ministers. Bitterly was she 10 pay for
this martial spirit. Never has = war
between two great nations been sprung
so quickly nor its issue so soon decided.
In less than a fortnight after the En-

In his absence Eugene was appointed
regent. as she had been during a visit

himself under the wheels OF the En-
press carriage. Eugene herself avert
ed this attempted suicide. Quick as a
fash she sprang from the carriage and

The Empress Courage.
In this incident the Empress displayed
that agility and courage for which she
has always been known. Her physical
courage and a half romantic. wholly

as a daring horsewoman on the Champs

THAT saW0red- OF another and IN Jre=c hiv-

chapter OF a story of lifelong love
without hope, the love OF a simple
gentleman for the Empress of a great
people, Eugene, wife Of Napoleon III Of
France.
As a token of her esteem and recog-
milton OF his unboun6ed loyalty the
aged Empress sent a beautiful wreath
of flowers 10 de Cassaguac's grave.
Eugene was much affected by the news
OF his death. One by one she has seen
her old friends carried 10 the grave
and smaller and smaller grows the
circle who remember her when she
reigned as Empress Of the French and
queen Of beauty. But since the sad
death Of the Prince Imperial there has
been no old friend whose loss so az
fected her as the loss Of Paul de Cassag-
nae. Although il has never been said
that the Empress loved the gallant
Frenchman, there has always been q

De Cassagnae Falls in Love.

Cassagnae saw the beautiful Empress
and fell desperately in love with her.
Her grace. her wonderful col0ring. her
charm of ms at which the whole
world wondered, won his heart once for
all At that time Eugene was at her
zenith. II has been said no other woman
who had ever graced a throne displayed
so small a foot or so dainty a hand as
Eugene. Her stature was less than mid
die height. Her figure Was 1.-the and
supple, her arms. shoulders, and bust
were delicately nodded. The most ia

that her long neck with its gentle curves
might have been the envy of Greek

light and quick in every movement. and
