Up in the room assigned to her at
Kanauhana, and made invitingly cozy
for their beloved young mistress by
Barbe and Zeney-the latter, by the
way, never failing to show her jeal-
ousy of the French womans closer
relations with MademoiseIle Rose
was that young lady lying. q tumbled
mass of pale blue draperies, upon
large. old-fashioned divan. Her head
and face were buried in the pillows,
and she was sobbing convulsively.
1t was thus that Zeney found her
and the old negress pausing on the
door sill, exclaimed shrilly, "I.a-la-la!
What is this? Precious bird, tell Ze-
ney who it is that has brought tears
to the light Of her eyes"
She spoke in the French patois of
her fellows, but with better accent
and choice of words.
The sobs ceased, but the face buried
itself still deeper In the pillows, and
little hand waved her off impa-
tiently.
1T is that proud Spanish missy!"
exclaimed Zeney, with sudden anger.
~ don't like her. She has made you
cry. Come home. my honey; don't
you stay where she is"
"Lazalie has nothing to do with It,"
was the reply, uttered with spirit
and emphasis that appeared to re-
store the speakers composure. "She
knows nothing of it, tell you. 1t is,
with manifest indecision-"only that
l felt unhappy and I cannot tell my
self why. But, t,"-as if determined to
find reason-"I wish that Capt. La
fitte had not come to see Gen. La
Roche this morning"
"La-la," said Zeney, new light
creeping into her shriveled face, while
she nodded her turbaned head until
her long earrings clicked against the
string of gold beads tightly encircling
her skinny neck. Then good Capt.
Jean is still alive and well! ] am
glad-so glad"
why should you be glad? What
makes every one love him so?" de-
manded her mistress petulantly, as
she wiped her face and eyes with the
morsel of cambric and lace serving
her as a handkerchief
why should not be glad, my pref
ty one? Aye so long as Zeney lives,
she has reason to be glad when all
is well with Capt. Jean"
But why should you be?" repeated

Some months after the siege of Glib

Darby, with the British grand fleet,

the rock with 5000 bushels Of barley,

A prospective mother cannot begin

Lafitte told Gen. La Roche o. the sail

their burdens; and the general, pre-
ceded by LATTE, started to leave the
room as CHEEKY whistling. accom-
psnied by the sound Of footsteps upon

breakfast.

back to say, in carefully lowered
tone, "Senorita Lazalie-Mademoi-
selle Rose, I must warn both of you
to have a care how you mention the
name Of Lafitte in the hearing Of
young Stewart. Remember" he add
ed, with unmistakable emphasis, "he
must be Captain Jean, and no one
else, SO long as he is here with u.s."
Lazalie nodded, with smile OF ap-
preciation, but Mademoiselle de Gaze
neau looked with troubled eyes at the
general as he hurried out.
She was greatly puzzled, as indeed
she had been more than once during
the past year, to understand how 1t
was that people for whom she could
hsvo nothing but respect should seem
to find no objection to fraternizing
with the dreadful Lafitte, and she was
beginning to wonder how much of un-
truth there might be in the terrible
stories she had heard concerning him.
1t was all perplexing puzzle. and
the girl sighed as she stirred her
chocolate.
Lazalie, hearing the sigh, laughed
as her white teeth bit into her toast.
Why do you sigh so woefully my
little Rose. and look so tragic? These
gentlemen have their secrets to pre-
serve. especially Just now. when one
cannot be sure that his neighbor will
not betray him for chance to curry
favor with the governor, or he is not

The dark beauty and Indifferent
manner OF the Spanish girl possessed

feeling the others admiration and
liking, had reciprocated in a way that
brought to the surface her better
and more womanly self.
The general had for a guest at this
time the son of an old friend, Col.
Thomas Stewart of Kentucky, who,
sending young Harold to New Or
asked for him La Roche's hospitality.
La Roche and the two girls were
breakfasting when LATTE arrived.
Brigida. who was experimenting GER
tain domestic matters in front room
of the house, was the first to see his
approach.
Gen. La Roche. with the impetuos-
ity of much younger man. sprang
from his chair and crossed the room
to grasp Lafitte's hand, welcoming
him in words which were but careless

from Lazalie. who had followed her

lovely face, flushing and paling by

Cannot Reduce a Rate.

It Is stated in Washington, that
under the Townsend rate bill, il a
rate Is fixed by the Commission 1t
cannot be lowered by a railroad.
Should an emergency arise calling for
decreased rate. the railroads or
shippers would have to appeal again
to the Commission. there being no
latitude allowed, whatever the cir
cumstances. Hitherto a maximum
rate has been the rule, but no such
concession is made under the pro-
posed legislation.

That the population of New York
City will have reached 6.700,000 twenty
years hence. and that the city will be
driven to draw water supply from
Lake Erie, or the Adirondack region,
is. the opinion of the joint committee
on city affairs and forests Of the New
York Board of Trade and Transporta-

made its report to the full board.
The committee found that in 1925
the water power Of the Catskill region

Judge Princes Statement.

Judge Prince was seen by a re-
porter for the Daily Mail and asked
about the statements made by Chief
Constable Fant with regard to cor
ruption in the dispensary and the
investigation by the legislature.
Judge Prince stated that he did not
care to make a statement until he
could see exactly what Mr.. Fant's
testimony was. He did say to the
reporter, however, that no papers or
evidence, and no specification of
charges were ever filed with him by
Mr.. Fant or by any one else. He
had never heard of any being filed
with Governor McSweeney or with
Senator Tillman. Judge Prince says
that, so far as he can remember, Mr..
FAINT never mentioned to him in any
way the management or conduct OF
the constabulary force at Spartan
burg, but that in a casual conversa-
ton Mr.. Fant did once state that
some constable, perhaps chief con-
stable, at Greenville, whose name has
escaped the judges memory, had been
guilty OF some misconduct The judge
advised Mr. Fant to get up affidavlts
abOut the matter and file them with
the governor. He afterwards heard
no more of the matter
