CHAPTER XIV.
An American Girl.

The Marquise d'Esclignac saw that
she had to reckon with an American
girl. Those who know these girls
know what their temper and mettle
are. and that they are capable of the
finest reverberation.
Julia Redmond was very young
Otherwise she would never have let
Sabron go without one sign that she
was not Indifferent to him. and that
she was rather bored with the idea
OF titles and fortunes. But she adored
her aunt and saw, moreover, some
thing else than ribbons and velvets in
the makeup of the aunt She saw
deeper than the polish that long
Partisan lifetime had overlaid, and
she loved what she saw. She respected
her aunt. and knowing the older ladys
point of view, had been timid and hest
tating until now.
Now the American girl woke up, or
rather asserted herself
MY dear Julia" said the Marquise
d 'Esclignac. ARE you sure that all the
timed things. the cocoa, and so forth,
are on board? l did not see that box"
Ma tante." returned her niece from
her steamer chair. its the only piece
of luggage l am sure about"
At this response her aunt suffered a
slight qualm for the fate of the rest of
her luggage. and from her own chair
in the shady part of the deck glanced
toward her niece, whose eyes were on
her book.
What a practical girl she is"
thought the Marquise d'Esclignac.
She seems ten years older than /.
She is cut out to be the wife of poor
man. 1t is pity she should have a
fortune. Julia would have been charm
ing as love in cottage, whereas
She remembered her hotel on the
Pare Monceau, her chateau by the
Rhone, her villa at Biarritz-and
sighed She had not always been the
Marquise d'Esolignac; she had been
an American girl first and remembered
that her maiden name had been De
Puyster and that she had come from
Schenectady originally. But for many
years she had forgotten these things.
Near to Julia Redmond these last few
weeks all but courage and simplicity
had seemed to have tarnish on its
wings.
Sabron had not been found.
1t was curious fact, and one that
transpires now and then in the history
Of desert wars-the man is lost. The
captain Of the cavalry was missing.
and the only news OF him was that he
had fallen in an engagement and that
his body had never been recovered.
Several sorties had been made to find
him; the war department had done all
that 1t could; he had disappeared from
the face of the desert and even his
bones could not be found.
From the moment that Julia Red
mond had confessed her love for the
Frenchman. a courage had been born
in her which never faltered. and her
aunt seemed to have been infected by
IT. The marquise grew sentimental,
found out that she was more docile and
impressionable than she had believed
herself to be. and the veneer and ETH
quette (no doubt never a very real
part OF her) became less important
than other things. During the last
few weeks she had been more a De
Puyster from Schenectady than the
Marquise d'Esclignac.
Ma tante," Julia Redmond had
said to her when the last telegram

London-The Daily Mail strongly

there are no fewer than 1900 met

Washington, ID. c. - Germany's re-
ply TO the American note concerning
the sinking Of the Lusitania produced
a feeling Of profound disappointment
here Dissatisfaction at the failure
Of Germany to answer the demands Of
the United States was reflected In
government circles generally.
President Wilson had retired early
Sunday--before the text arrived but
from n reading Of the summary pub
lished and Ambassador Gcrard's fore
casts. he had an accurate impression
Of what Il contained.
Secretary Bryan would make no
comment. Other cabinet officers were
reticent, but thore was little conceal
ment anywhere that the answer from
Berlin had produced grave situation
In the relations between the United
States and Germany. just what course
Of action the United States will pursue
10 undetermined.
Press dispatches giving the text Of
the reply came In the course Of the
evening and were sent TO the White
HouBe.
From previous knowledge Of Pres
idsnt Wilson's position. Il was gen
orally predicted that prompt answer
would be sent to Berlin perhaps
within "a or a. hours.
In German quarters here II was
again reiterated that the Lusitania
WAS armed
To controvert this the United States
has proof gathered before the Amer
lean note was sent that there were no
guns aboard. Furthermore. the Brit
ish government entered into s= in
formal agreement with the United
States early In the war to see that no
British vessels left American ports
armed.

the United States that II took cogni-

tory proposals submitted by the United
States to Berlin and London IA basis

The realization Of these proposals,
