 Her face will be study when I tell her"
 'The splendor of it!" said she.
 "And the surprise" added, laugh- ing.
 "Ah, msieur, she will play her part well. She Is clever. That moment when the true love comes and claims |, her it is the sweetest in woman's life"
 1 A thought came flying through my brain with the sting of an arrow. She must not be deceived. l have 1 not any noble blood in me- am only the son of soldier-farmer and have my fortune to make" said 1, quickly. That is only little folly" she an swered, laughing. Whether you be rich or poor, prince or peasant, she cares not snap of her finger. Ciel! is she not republican, has she not money enough?"
 Nevertheless, I beg you 10 say, in Soul lcttcl. tudl l nave nululHS Dut H. word and my honor."
 AS We rode along noted in my book the place and time We were to meet the captives. The marquis joined us at the Hermitage, where a stable-boy watered our horses. Three servants were still there, the others being now in the counts service.

HORSE THIEF.
Run Down in Bridgepo rt Restored ,
 Owner.

Bridgeport, Jan. 25.---The old true ism that birds of q feather flock to- gcther," was neatly Illustrated in the arrest of Frank Hook, alias Odell, horse thief, who was captured yestcr- day by the city detective department on the Drew farm in ihe north part of the city. The local detectives were after horse thief who had been Tn Brewsters, x. Y., last week. In mlk- ing thier search for this fellow they ran across Hook. or whatever his name is.
 Last Saturday two officers from Brewsters were in consultation with Supt. Birmingham regarding the theft of q valuable horse in that place. They had been to Danbury, l!rook- field, Newton, Derby. .lnsonia and Birmingham. and on q clue visit WAS made to Cannon's stables in New Haven, hut the clue was wrong and neither the missing horse nor the thief was found. Ii was casually mentioned by the two officers that when they were in Danbury- n gray mare was stolen in that city. It was tudt llC Ssllllc IIidu NllD SlUF' the BrcwSters horse was the man who stole the Danbury animal.
 It came to the attention of the su- pcrintendent that there was going to be q gray mare sold at the corner of Grand and Madison avenue Monday. Detective Hackett was sent up that way to mako an investigation. On what he saw and heard he rev ed back, with the result that 8 message was huryiedly sent to Daubury to have the owner of the grey horse at police headquarters to-day to see if he could identify this mare. for which payment was to he made yesterday, provided the horse was all that was represented. The Danbury people recognized the horse as the one stolen but the manc was cut off. There was no mistaking the animal With what information they got the super intendent, with Capt. Arnold and De tcctivcs Cronan and Hackctt made a visit to the north end and captured Hook.
 When arrested Hook admitted that bc stole the horse He said that some time ago he lived ill Middlctown. and has been living in this city off and on for years.

 Then. as ever after kindness, he renewed his quid of tobacco, turning quickly to the filtered desk at head quarters.
 We mounted our own horses a fine. frosty morning. The white earth glim- mcrcd in the first touch of sunlight. All the fairy lanterns of the frost king. hanging in the stubblc and the dead grass. glowed brief time, flickered faintly. and went out. Then the brown sward lay bare. save in the shadows of rock or Eill or forest that were still white. 4 great glory had fallen over the far-reachine woods. Looking down a long valley, we could see towers of evergreen. terraces of red and brown, golden steeple-tops. gilded domes min aretcd with lavender and purple and dra [ ed with scarlet banners. It seemed as if the trees were shriving after all the green riot of summer. and making ready for sackrloth and ashes. Some stood trembling. and as if drenched iu their own blood Now and then a lead was bare and bent. and naked arms were lifted high. as if to implore mercy.

It was a lucky and a stubborn sea- hgbt. More blood 10 the number never saw than fell on the Lawrence; g. of our 1O2 men having been killed or laid up for repair. One has to search a bit for record of more wicked fire. But we deserve not all the glory some histories have bestowed. for We had a larger fleet and better. If fewer. guns. It was. however. thing to be proud of, that victory of the young captain. Our men. of whom many were raw re- cruIts-farmers and woodsmen--stood to their work with splendid vslor. and. for us in the north. it came near being decisive. D'ri and l were so put ont of business that no part of the glory was CUTS. albeit We were praised in orders for valor under fire. But for both l say We had never less pride of ourselves in any affair we had had to do with. We'll. as have said br fore, we were at our best with a sa- Der, and big guns were out of OUT line.
