Darneille Scores Attorneys.

IN reply to this Mr.. Darneille said tha:
Il was an easy matter to make the
charge of fraud, but not so easy to
prove Il.
"As for the attorneys for the protes-
tants." said he, Il consider that they
have made an unwarranted attack on
me. and have insulted the integrity OF
this honorable board when they inti-
mate that my presence is an intiL-. .la-
ton. This Is something the board should
consider very carefully in reaching
their decision I viii venture the opin-
ion that the attorneys are more inter
ested In the attempt OF a combine Of
liquor men in that section OF the city
TO prevent Mr.. Neligan from obtaining
his license than they are in the property
owners, whom they say they represent.
Rev. J. Milton WaldrOn. cOlOred, Of
1884 street northwest, presented a ne
utiOn signed by thirty-fiVe residents and
property-Owners Of the neighborhood. in
which attention is called to the fact that
on the square in question there are
at present four liquor places, two
wholesale and two retail, and that there
are eleven Sucn houses within q radius
OF three squares. These places, he said
do a large bucket trade a large part of
the contents OF which are consumed on
the street, resulting in much drunken
ness and disorder and a consequent
depreciation of property.
The board was bl a few minutes in
reaching its decision

Good Effects in Color.

Anv woman who studies effect will
soon see that the color that 1ntens1fles
the color of the eyes is the one which is
most becoming every time. Pale blue
and pink should be carefully avoided
bv women with red hair, as they aggra-
vate. rather than soften, the natural
coloring; but they will never make any
mistake with any of the dark shades OF
brown. especially the red brown.
Brown is also the color for brown
eyed woman; it will bring out the
beauty of her eyes as no other color
can if she but chooses the right shade.
GRAY is becoming to women with gray
hair and to women who have gray eyes
and lively compilations, while White is
Incoming to almost everyone, old or
Young. providing she selects the right
tint. The blonde can wear the pure
white without a tinge of yellow or pink
in if hit the brunette must be careful
IN wear the soft cream shades, and II
she wears black at all it must be very
gloss. while a pronounced blonde can
safely deck herself in the dull black
which is used for mourning. Green Is
the color which is pretty sure to be suit
able to every complexion, providing
one is fortunate enough to discover the
narticular shade which harmon1zes
with her coloring.

ITO BE CoNTINUED.I
THE LEGS KICKED.

Surprise of an English Visitor Who
Thought He Was Rescuing a Man.
Frank Hyatt, who has long enjoyed
an income of $4,000, derived principally
from his vocation as booking agent"
for London Thespians, two weeks ago
landed in the American metropolis for
the purpose, as he said, Of seeing what
on earth Mr. ]. A. Bailey could do with
so many men and beasts as he had been
shipping to him. New York and it's
ceaseless rush amazed him. Mr.
Bailey's winter quarters at Bridgeport
were past his belief. the swiftly moving
Broadway cars, "a lot of trans pulled
by string" surprised him, says the
New York World.
His idle moments Eat 'ome' are spent
upon the race-courses of England and
there. in times past he has met many
of his friends Recently at an uptown
Broadway hotel, as he glanced out into
the street his kindly blue eyes seemed
to start from their sockets. Rushing
into Broadway he shouted:
Hold on here! Don't start that car!
Here, somebody, call an ambulance!
Then Mr.. Hyatt plunged almost head
foremost under the car and began tug
ging away at a mans legs that were
lying across the rails beneath the center
of the car AS he did SO the legs be-
gan to kick vigorously. The rescuer
felt himself pulled away violently, saw
the brawny fist of the conductor shak-
ing close to his nose and he heard the
angry voice of the conductor saying:
What do you mean, sir, by trying to
keep that man from fixing the car? Do
you think we want to block Broadway
all day."
MI. Hyatt turned toward the hotel
and was greeted by laughter from the
crowd that his cries had attracted.

CHAPTER K.-CoNr1NuEp,.

Perhaps we shall tide over tonight,
after all-who knows?" said Lomaque'
ringing his hand bell for lights. They
were brought in, and with them oml-
nously returned the police agent Ma
gloire with a small sealed packet. Ii
contained an arrest order and tiny
three-cornered note, looking more ike
a love letter or a lady's invitation to a
party than anything else. Lomaque
opened the note eagerly and read THESE
lines, neatly written, and signed WIN
Robespierre's initials-M. R.-formed
elegantly in cipher:
Arrest Trudaine and his sister to-
night On second thoughts l am not
sure, if Danville comes back in time to
be present, that it may not be all the
better. He is unprepared for his Wlfe,s
arrest Watch him closely when II
takes place. and report privately to me.
I am afraid he is a vicious man; anu OIL
all things I abhor Vice."
"Any more work for me tonight!
asked Magloire, with yaWn.
"OnIy an arrest" replied Lomaque.
Collect our men, and when you're
ready, get a coach at the door,
eve were just going to supper,
grumbled Nfagloire to himself, as ne
went out. 'The devil seize the Aristo-
Gratis! They're all in such hurry 10
get to the guillotine that they won
even give man time to eat MS VIC
tuals in peace"
There's no choice now" muttered
Lomaque, angrily thrusting the arrest
order and the three-cornered note INTO
his pocket. His father was the saw
ing of me; he himself welcomed me Ike
an equal; his sister treated me IKE
gentleman, as the phrase went IN those
days, and now"
He stopped and wiped his forehead;
then unlocked his desk, produced bot
| tie of brandy, and poured himself out
a glass of liquor, which he drank by
sips, slowly.
81 wonder whether other men get
softer hearted as they grow Older?' he
said Il seem to do SO, at any rate.
| Courage! courage! what must be, must.
If I risked my head to do it, I couldn't
| stop this arrest. Not a man in the Of
fee but would be ready to execute it, II
| / wasn't"
Here the rumble of carriage wheels
sounded outside. There's the coach:
exclaimed Lomaque, locking up the
brandy bottle, and taking his hat.
after all, as this arrest is to be made,
| it's as we'll for them that l should
make it."
Consoling himself as he best could
with this reflection, Chief Police Agent
Lomaque blew out the candles, and
| quilted the room.

he continued, turning again to his sis
ter. II will take care of your book for
YOU until you can keep 1t yourself"
"You will do this! you will do thatw
cried Danville, growing more and more
exasperated, and letting his anger get
the better even of his cunning now.
"Talk less confidently of the future

YOU. Govern your tongue when you
are in my presence; day may come

but he gave it no utterance. There
was an instant's pause of silence; and
through it there came heavily on the
still night air the rumbling of distant
wheels. The sound advanced nearer and
nearer-advanced and ceased under
the window.
Danville hurried to it, and looked
out eagerly.
81 have not fastened my return with
out reason. I wouldn't have missed
this arrest for anythingw thought he,
peering into the night.
The stars were out, but there was no
moon. He could not recognize either
the coach or the persons who got out of
it, and he turned again into the in
terror of the room. His wife had sunk
into a chair-her brother was locking
I'D in a cabinet the book which he had
promised to take care of for her. The
dead silence made the noise of slowly
ascending footsteps on the stairs pain
fully audible. At last the door opened
softly.
"Citizen Danville, health and frater-
nity!" said Lomaque, appearing in the
doorway, followed by his agents. cit
izen Louis Trudaine?" he continued,
beginning with the usual form.
Rose started out of her chair; but
her brothers hand was on her lips be-
fore she could speak.
my name is Louis Trudaine," he
answered.

brother. They had sat talking together
long after sunset, and had let the dark
ness steal on them insensibly, as peo-
pie will who are only occupied with
quiet familiar conversation. Thus it
happened, by a curious coincidence,
that Just as Lomaque was blowing out
his candles at the office, Rose was light
ing the reading lamp at her brothers
lodgings.
Five years of disappointment and sor-
row had sadly changed her to outward
view. Her face looked thinner and
longer; the once delicate red and white
of her complexion was gone; her figure
had wasted under the influence of some
weakness which already made her stoop
a little when she walked. Her man
ner had lost it's maiden shyness only
to become unnaturally quiet and sub
dued. Of all the charms which had
so fatally, yet so innocently, allured
her heartless husband, but one re-
mained-the winning gentleness of her
voice. It might be touched now and
then with a note of sadness, but the
soft attraction of it's even, natural tone
still remained. In the morning of all
other harmonies, this one harmony had
been preserved unchanged Her
brother, though his face was care-wOrn,
and his manner sadder than of old,
looked less altered from his former
self. 1t is the most fragile material
which soonest shows the flaw The
worlds idol, Beauty holds it's frailest
tenure of existence in the one Temple
where we most love to worship it.
And so you think, Louis, that our
perilous undertaking has really ended
we'll by this time?' said Rose, anx-
iously, as she lit the lamp and placed
the glass shade over it. What a re-
lief it is only to hear you say you think
we have succeeded at lastr'
81 said I hoped" replied her brother.
well, even hoped is great word
any one in this fearful city, and in
these days of Terror
She stopped suddenly, seeing her
brother raise his hand in warning. They
looked at each other in silence, and lis
tened. The sound of footsteps going
slowly past the house-ceasing for a
moment just beyond it-then going on
| hgain-came through the open window.
There was nothing else, out of doors or
| in, to disturb the silence of the night
the deadly silence of Terror which, for
months past, had hung over Paris. 1t
was significant sign of the times, that
even passing footstep sounding lit
tie strangely at night, was subject for
suspicion, both to brother and sister
so common subject that they sus-
pended their conversation as a matter
of course, without exchanging word OF
explanation, until the tramp of the
strange footsteps had died away.
Louis" continued Rose, dropping
her voice to a whisper, after nothing
more was audible, when may l trust

ALMOST A SOLID SORE.
Skin Disease from Birth-Fortuns
Spent on Her Without Benefit
Cured Her with Cuticura.

who once had a skin disease from her
birth until she was six years of age.
Her father had spent fortune on her
to get her cured and none of the treat
ments did her any good. Old DR.. -
suggested that he try the Cuticura
Remedies which he did. When he COM
menced to use it the child was almost
solid scab. He had used it about two
months and the child was well. I
could hardly believe she was the same
child. Her skin was as soft as baby's
without a scar on it. 1 have not seen
her in seventeen years, but I have
