and Mrs. Calling were sisters.
DR.. Calling came to indianapolis
when young man. He invented the
first wheat drill. after which he en-

in western lands. 1t was after the
war he invented his gun. An. unsuc.

to form company and sell stock to
manufacture the gun. Finally Calling
got the Colt people at Hartford, Conn,
to manufacture the instrument. This

he sought her out second time. He was
touched and fattered by the romantic interest
she showed in his person and his cause The
beautiful girl stuck in his mind. He felt as If
he had always known her. He knew that he
would meet her again.
Eugene felt the same mysterious attraction.
"Ah would that I could help him!" She
thought of the lonely prince and his risky
ambitions that were being laughed about in
Paris as open secret. At the moment of
the coup detat she fairly burned with anxiety.
She dashed about the little fiat like tigress.
What can do?" she asked herself. What
can do to aid him?"
That night Napoleon received letter. It
was from romantic, inexperienced girl, but
ardent and sincere. 1t gave him her good
wishes and audaciousy offered him all she
possessed should his projects need ready
money
After December it was the Empire in fact
If not in name. Napoleon gave hunts like

At these he met again the beautiful Spanish
girl, fearless horsewoman, tireless dancer. He
remembered above all her letetr written in
that dark hour of his waverng chances.
His love at first sight for Eugene was soon
noticed showing itself full-blown in the most
open attentions. The girl and her mother had

Napoleon soon found the uselessness OF

Yet he fet--he knew--that she loved him
passionately. 1t was desperate situation for
the girl, and his heart swelled with love and
pride and admiration of her. Once Eugene
and her mother were hidden to a parade re-
view at the Tuileries. In the courtyard Napo-
leon drew up his horse under the windows OF
the first floor to salute the ladies' He wished
to dismount and go up to them.

the corridor leading to the chapel was the
shortest route to these rooms, but Napoleon
understood her hidden meaning. Again, one
afternoon at Compeigne, when the flower OF
the braIdnew emperor's court was idling
around his vingt-et-un table, she made the sit
