blades. of grass as he stopped short
on the sloping lawn which led down
to the white stone steps which led to
the sunken garden. Alike, in her rid
ing habit, with a feather in her hat,
and gauntleted gloves on her hands,
was so lovely as to be startling. She
looked at the ground, half shy, half
laughing, and beat the grass with her
ridingwhip. Francois was leaning
toward her and talking, and the gen
eral, coming slowly down the lawn,
felt flood of pride rise in him as he
looked at this successful picture of
boy which he had done so much to
ashton. The two had been riding to-
gether, and Francois appeared, as
most men do at his best in riding
clothes. With that, as the general
marched slowly down the velvet slope,
unseen by them, regarding them his
| girl and his boy. this happy sister and
brother-with that the brother lifted
| his sisters hand and, bending over it..
kissed 1t slowly, in a manner unmis-
takably unbrotherly.
Mon Dieu!" gasped the general,
and turned on his heel and marched
back to his library.
All that afternoon he stayed shut
up in the library. At dinner he was
| taciturn.
The next morning the general sent
! for Francois TO come to him in the
library. A letter had been brought a
short time before and was lying open
on the table by his hand.

deep abrupt tones. Il am in trouble

Eyes, my Seigneur," said Francois
quickly.
The general glared at him, frown
ing. I'VE shall see," he said again
and then-suddenly as a shot from q
cannon-"Does Alike love you, Fran
co.'s?
II think not, my Seigneur," he
answered in a low voice.
81 am hurting YOU" the deep voice
said-and only one or two people in
the world had heard that voice so full
of tenderness. II am hurting my son

like the dog had his own bedroom
yes, and office, too-and maybe his
dining-room
And the joke was enough on that
lazy day OF vacation to set peals of
laughter ringing through the ruins.
Alike stopped laughing suddenly.
Who is that" she demanded. Her
eyes were lifted TO the hill rising be-
hind the green mound, and the glance
of the others followed hers. A young
man, a boy, was coming lightly down
the slope, and something in his figure
and movement made it impossible
even at a distance that it should be

But yes, Monsieur" Francois an
swered wondering-and in a moment
he wondered more. The strange boy,
his cap flung from him, dropped on
his knees and kissed the grass that
grew over the Roman governors foun-
dations. With that he was standing
( again, looking at them unashamed

excuse his act, but as if explaining

The strange boy talked very little
they could not recollect that he asked
questions, after his first startling
question; yet here was Alike, the very
spirited and proud little Alike, anxious
to make him understand everything OF
their own affairs.

A quick contraction twisted Fran
co.'s sensitive mouth and was gone,
but this time the general saw. "You
may trust me, my Seigneur," the boy
said, and moved to the door; but the
general called to him as his hand
touched the latch.
"Francois!"
Yes, my Seigneur" He faced about,
steady and grave, and stood holding
the door
Francois, my son-I have not hurt
you--very much? You do not love
Alixe-deeply? Do you love her, Fran

There was a shock OF stiffness in the
old dim library. Through the window
where the children's shouts had
come in ten years before to the mar
quis and the general-one heard now
in the quiet the sudden staccato Of a
late cricket. The general, breathing
anXiously, looked at Francois, Fran
co.'s standing like statue. The gen.
eral repeated his question softly,

With that the great eyes blazed and

A Roman legend had given this
name to the deep pool of the brook
by the road; it was said that the crue

years back, for drowning refractory
peasants. Alike gazed steadily at the
dark murmuring water.

NEW ORLEANS, March 5..-The
weather map shows fair and continued
cold, with frost temperatures to the
coast line Cloudy in the rest of the
belt with general rains east of the riv-
err indications are for continued rainy
and cold weather, with prospects for
another cold wave in Texas. New crop
matters are being delayed in the early
sections. Liverpool furnished a pleas
ant surprise, being about points better
than due on futures. and points higher
on spot, with very large sales-15, 900
bales.
The strength in the English market
is principally due to the following three
facts-good business in Manchester, re-
sstance by spots in the South 10 the
decline in the contract markets and con-
tinued cold and bad weather, which de-
lays crop matters in the early sections
There are more signs of a drop in re-
ceipts. Houston to-day has 1882 bales
against 5,497 last year; Savannah 1914,
against 3,7S3 last year. and Galveston
1881. against 1851 last year
The into-sight for the week looks
around 207 600 bales, against 1883 last
year, and we compare with mill takings
Of 26S 900 bales for this week last year
The weekly statistics tomorrow will
show large exports and a larger loss in
Nstocks than last year.
Our market opened about points
higher and ruled quiet and steady.
Spots are also reported quiet and
steady at quotations.

Strength Abroad Due to Big Bust

NEW YORK, March 5.--Infuenced by
much better Liverpool cables than due.
the cotton market opened steady to-
day, with prices at a net advance OF 2
to Q points from Wednesdays close.
There was a good demand from Wall
street shorts and spot houses came in
with good buying orders.
The strength of the English market
was due chiefly to the following ca

days, and those inclined to buy had TO
bid for what they wanted Al the end
OF the first half hour. the list showed
further gains of to points from the
opening range. Later scattered profit
taking caused prices to ease off to 8
points from the high level.
Shorts continued to even up their lines
during the afternoon session in eXpecta-
tion of a bulllsh weekend statement to-
morrow, which Is expected to show large
exports and larger loss in stocks than

expected to be large. The final ginners'

which would be construed as bearish,
will probably save further liquidation,
but would put the market In better
position for buling.
