LONDON. Oct. 19.-LOndon's bank rate
has been raised to per cent, the hiEu-

rate in 1883 was the South African war
while the present rise IN the rate is at

CHAPTER n,


Through the weeks of the late sum-
attending the meetings held by the
peasants. But, being 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
latters evident determination to in
fluence the peasants against the peo-
pie of the chateau.
On 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
aisdainfully 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 brief
years dream of happiness.

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 a 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
latters loyalty to the Revolutionary
cause; and the officer, who had been
ordered upon a 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
should arrive, but had passed the
time in questioning Margot and Tatro
as to the probable meaning of this
strange invasion of the chateaus pri-
vacy. Then, going in to the dining
room with an unusually subdued air

excitement, the lads shyness evapo.
