Bankruptcy Decision.

Inc supreme court OF New Jersey
holds In Bolton vs.. Bolton that when
a wife goes into bankruptcy the trus-
tee in bankruptcy is entitled to take
possession of arrears of alimony due
her for the benefit of the creditors.
The court said:
When it is considered that during
the period Of non-payment the wife
has In all probability been contract
Ing debts for her support on the faith
OF recovering these payments. and that
aiimony is awarded for the EXPRESS
purpose OF her support by paying in
as she goes along. and when IT
is considered further that by her dis
charge in bankruptcy these debts are
wiped out, 1t seems manifestly unjust
that the creditors should have no re-
course to the very fund that the di.
vorce court provided to pay them"

CHAPTER II.
THE STRANGER


AT the end of the long street Of Vic
ques, next the church, stood the house
or Beaupre, the father of little
FRANCOIS and Tomas and the rest. The
villagers called him lie Francois" and
MS wife La Claire; this showed them
OF a certain Importance, for one spoke
as II there were no others. The house
was the largest in the village. and its
great earth-floored entry, leading at
the right into the living rooms, at the
left into the stable, was 20 feet square.
Ihere, on sunshiny spring days, the
bench against the wall, always with
her knitting, always with the children
about her, and the cows would file past
and into the wide doorway at the left,
switching their tails, with mild big
eyes gazing gently at the group. In
front was the flower garden, and little
Lucle's head was not so tall as the
patch of red peonies whose great Bios
SONS he breeze tossed in one corner
of it.
A beautiful garden it was, the fines
in the village, yet this was not the
pride Of La Claire" the wife Of lie
Francois" She had two vanities, the
neighbors said: her tiny feet and her
garden, but not this garden Of flowers.
Outside Of the village, half q mile
away, on the road to the old chateau,
We're the fields where, laid out in trim
rows, flourished all the vegetables Of all
the Villagers. The little houses sat in
the long street, the old vote Romano,
the Roman road built before the Chris
tlan era and still kept up. The houses
were set too closely to allow space for
the great beds of cabbages, beans, peas.
turnips, parsley, endive, chicory, car
rots. So the cottages nestled elbow to
elbow in the street, and the gardens
In the fields outside-one might see
them by looking-stretched even long
fingers through the valley almost to
the slope that led to the ruined castle.
Francois, the lad, liked to be sent
there with his mothers big basket to
bring back vegetables for the family
meal. It was quiet in the long sun
shiny rows of growing things, and the
earthly smell was pleasant, and a boy
who had much to think about could
think well as he broke off stems Of
chard or dug into the clean damp
brown earth for lettuce-'la salade."
Moreover, he would ask sometimes:
Must 1 hurry today, mother? Might
1 go on to the chateau for a little
while?"
And often La Claire would smile at
the boy and answer But yes, my
Francois, you may 90; there Is no
hurry"
And then came hours to be remem-
bered. Francois remembered them
many years after. He would set the
basket carefully in a safe spot at the
end of the row of white grown
lettuce heads, and hen he would cross
the field, brushing through the millions
of scarlet popptes, higher thar the
blades Of wheat, and climb up the steep
hillside n scramble over the fence.
and be in the old castle. 1t was a good
road, because the people Of vicaues

in ron of the baby's eyes. and he
blinked as he looked up, but did not
draw away an inch, and as the young
general pressed him to his fat knees
he put his hands together and shut his
eyes, for he thought he was to pray to
the good God. So the child knelt before
the emperor, thinking of his prayers.
1t was still for a moment, and all the
OFFICERS stood silent. and then the en-
peror took the marshal's sword and
struck the baby's shoulder a light blow
with the flat of it.
Rise Chevalier Francois Beaupre,'
he said clearly, and in the pause he adj
ded, with a look in his eyes as If n
gazed forward: Some day, perhaps, a
marshal of France under another Bona
parte.'"
The grandmother's voice stopped and
the garden and the entry that had been
full of the jingle of harness and the
soldiery, was suddenly hushed and
empty. The ghosts of the great which
had risen at the simple magic of her
memory dissolved into mists Of past
years, But the glory M the awe Of
the name of the emperor hung about
them. The children huddled, their eyes
~devouring her, their faces close, listen
ing yet. A little girls voice spoke.
And grand-mere, it was"
IT was Francois" she said, and laid
her hand on his shoulder. THE sword
OF the emperor touched him here-I
saw IT. The child's frame quivered as
he felt again that blow of the acco-
lade.
Then Tomas, always unimpressed,
began to sing jeeringly:
Francois Beaupre,
Nous devious Padmirer-
Notre grand cheValier,
Francois Beaupre-
And the spell was broken. The chill
dren scattered, shouting, out into the
of the garden. But Francois
stood al his ~grandmother's side, not
nearing or seeing them; staring at the
panels of the oak door as If he
oeheld the figures of Napoleon and his
senerais pass that way again, and in
his child eyes smoldered the inner light |
Of a seer Of visions.
