TRAGIC STORY OF
NEUFCHATEl.

rates France from the canton of
Neufchatel, in Switzerland. This
stream forms in it's tranquil course
several lakes, whose banks rise
hundreds of feet above their wa
ters, with centenarian pine trees
browning their submits. Amid
these immense solitudes is Les
Brenets, a village built 2400 feet
above the level of the river. A
noise which mingles itself with the
hOarse voice Of the wind passing
through the forests, Is heard for
miles around. This noise Is made
by the Doubs falling 80 feet down
into bottomless abyss. Every
year the Goth of June the young
people of the surrounding villages,
dressed in their best clothes, de-
scend the valley, ex2oark in a fleet
of newly painted and tastefully. dec
Grated boats and confide themselves
to the current Of the river; but as
soon as the terrible catara ct Is sig
nailed, and the sound coming from
the gulf is heard, a gun Is fired and
the boats scud away from the abyss
and death.
In the village of Les Brenets,
Jeanette Moriot lived with her ia
Their and mother. She was as
handsome as the landscape Of her
native place and pure as the air
she breathed. She had legion of
lovers, and although Is years of
age, had refused all offers of mar
riage.
Among the discarded was
matchmaker, whose accented feat
ures and deep look indicated VIC
lent passions. His rejection did not
seem to affect him very much. He
acted as if he had forgotten Jean
nette entirely.
At the same time a recently ap-
pointed brigadier of douanes (ser-
geant of custom house soldiers),
came to live in the village. The
splendor of the uniform and the
personal appearance of the wearer
did wonders in the young girls
heart, and her handsome face and
good reputa ton did the same with
the brigadier, and the result was
that on the 26th of June Mademoi-
selle Jeanette Moriot was to be-
come Madame Pierre Paul Russo
lot.
This day was chosen because
they wanted to add the pleasure
of the feast of st. John to those Of
their wedding day.
More than any other, the watch
maker seemed to be pleased at the
idea of the promised good time.
The happy day came at last; all
the guests were punctual to the
rendezvous, and the feast opened
under the most hopeful auspices.
The brigadier and Jeanette, obey
ing the secret thoughts of their
souls, tried to keep away from their
noisy guests. They marched along
the left bank of the river, hand in
hand, quite a distance At the mo-
ment when they believed they
were completely alone, they heard
voice coming from the Doubs,
singing love song. They approach
