Tare; Cable.—The (Chamber ,ct Commerce of Armentieres has sent a protest to the United States Consul at Dunkirk asking that it be trams - netted to Washington, regarding the incendiary bombardment by German artiltery of stores and factories. The bombardment. killed a himdrett civili- ans, though there were no soldiers in the town. The Chamber of Com- merce trusts that the United States - will use its influence to Ault an end to unjustifiable violence on the unfor- tified cities of France. French families have discovered that packages sent by them to the soldier relatives in prison in Germany are be- ing returned because the prisoners, being entirely withott money, are unable to pay the regular Customs duties, which the German Government is insisting shall be paid. The more indignation is expressed on this seore because the French du- ties are suspended for all objects re - admen for German prisoners in French territory. Paul tie Cassagnac, who started out on. a campaign to fight all the Ger- man journalists duels in connection with the Condemnation by the German courts of Hansi, the Alsatian caricat- urist, has been wounded at the front. He was mentioyed ha the des- patches for valor and for showing tal- ent in manoeuvring, in company with his brother, Guy, who was killed at the opening of the war in Lorraine.

Suzy slept little and wept much that night, And it took a great deal of roe water to cool her eyeti the next morn- ing before she went to rehearsal. In the greenroom she found Lord Wellrose, apparently -waiting for 'her, evidently =Iona to hear some explan- ation of her strange conduct, and some account of her stranger acquaintance of the night before. Though courtesy obliged lane to be quite silent upon the subject until she should speak, yet she quickly perceiv- ed his uneasiness, and in the intervale between her businese teethe rehearsals she talked to him of her early life and humble friends. "You know, my lord," she said, "that I am le aild of the people---" "Like Rachel, Ristori, Jenny Linel-" "And all the rest," she added. "But my lord, I was much humbler born than any of those. I could scarcely have been poorer ,lower, thee I was in my childhood. If Mittlam Vesta had not seen Me and pitied me I should never have been richer or higher, I think." "You 'think.' Well, let that go for the present." "In my childhood I had a friend, deerer to me' than anyone elle in the world, We were of the same age. My mother used to tell rae that we were fond of each other in our cradles, and that strangers always took us for twins. When we were but a few months old, Benny's raother used to leave him with my mother when she went out to work. In the sante way on Sundays my mother' used to leave me with Benny's raother, while she went to work. That was the way in which the baby love began. I do not remem- ber that; but so far back as I do re- member we two were inseparable cora- paniOns. There's the prompter's call," she exclaimed, breaking oft from her narrative to run upon the stage and sing her part. Lord Wellrose walked up and down the greenroom, his soul flooded with the tide of harmony that swelled from the stage and filled the buildieg. After a while she came back to him and took up her subject Just where she had left off. "We were very, very poor! As I told you, we could scarcely have been poorer. We were very often half fam- ished and half frozen. But we shared everything with each other. When Benny had no fire, I brought him in to ours, When we had no fire, Beaty took me ha to his. If Benny had a ha - penny roll, he always divided it with nee. If I had one, I shared it with him. We two poor little heathens were like the primitive Christians in one respelt-we 'had all things in common.' The call -boy again!" she exclaimed, breaking off and running away. There was another rapture of divine harmony', that filled the place and transfigured the world for a time, and then again she came back and resuln- ed her reminiscences. "You may judge, Lord Wellrose, how dear to my soul was this friend of inY childhood." "I can judge." "But I Could never make you real- ize how gentle, affectionate, compas- sionate he was; how true and faithful Ile 'was; how utterly unselfish, how de- voted to his friends. And yet, Lord ' Wellrose, there were those about him, those he loved and trusted, who taught hita always evil for good; who led him into sin by his own purest af- fections; who taught him, for love of them, to breakethe laws of God and man, and to believe that he was do- ing a brave and good deed, My lord, yOto in speaking of your own pure Childhood, have told me how you used to boast of the great things you would do for humanity when you 'should grow to be a mane Benny would,car- ess his starving companions and beg them not to mind, fer that he would 'creek a ease' aricn get them. plenty of 'prod' when he should 'grow to be a big man,' All this, you see, out of the misled goodness of hie heart," "It is very deploreble." "Yes; but I loved Beany dearlv, not- einthstanaing all. You May judge, ..tberefore, Lord Wellroze, What a deep, lasting, incurable sorrow it Was to me, when I woe entrapped by an artful de- tective ihto hetrayieg Iny dear play- mate to the hands ot the police, to trial, to conviction, to transportatioft foe fourteen years!

Lord Wellrose handed her to her rarriage, bowed, and went away very thoughtful, And Suzy drove home to her pretty house in Park Lane, to keep her net- pointment with Benny, As soon as she entered the hall the footman' in attendance tottehed forehead and sale: elf yoteplease, miss, the person wile was here last night has come again, and is waiting to see you." "Where is bet?" "In the servants' had, miss." "In the servants' hall!" echoed SUZY angrily, "If you piens°, miss, he rang tbe ser- vants' bell at the servants' door, and said he would 'wait be the eervants' 'hall himself," said the footman, who etrougly suspected that the strange visitor was some poor, shabby, disre- putable relative of his young mistrees. "Then snow him into my sitting - room. And never keep. him waiting in the servants' hall again. Ile is a very old friend of Mine. Do you hear?" "Ye, miss,' said tbe man, touching Itis fOrillead DS he. turued to go ripen his errand. Suzy went into ner bright little sit- ting -room, fragrant and blooming' with the bouquote diet had been showered upon her the evening imfore, and she threw off her helmet and veil, and ber lndtan shawl, and at down to wait for Benny. He eame at last, ushered in by the same doubting footman, who immedi- ately shut the door and withdrew. He was still very pale and thtu-still like the faded out fac-sbnile of Lord Wellrose; and his clothes were verve very ebabby, but his face and hands were as clean as those of any gentle- man, and his fair hair, cotabed back from his broad, pale forehead, turned into the soft curls so familiar to Suey's memory of Ills childhood. "Good -morning, Benny, I am very glad to see you. Oh, dear! I don't mean that. I should have said that to the earl or anybody, Benny, dear, 'I am gladder, much gladder, to have you bug in England than I have been of anything'else that has happened to me since yon were forced away," she said, giving him both her bands, as her eyes filed with tears., "You are -oh, you are wonderfully good to me. Suzy!" he faltered, with much emotion. "No, I'm not, l'm a heathen, I think, to have let you go away. Hea- ven knows where, last night evlien 1 had four or five empty rooms in the 'house. A very heathen, Benny!" "Suzy, you are a saint, more like. And you were right to let me go, Be- sides, my dear, I would not have stay- ed for a thousand guineas," he en- swerea gravely. "But why? But sit. down first, Benny, Sit down and then tell me what you mean -why you would not have stayed in my house; and, more- over, why you went to the servants' door this morning and waited in the servants' hall?" "Because, dear Sues dear, fortunate sister, I could not do otherwise with- out injuring you. It is not fit or right that I should visit you at all Much as I longed to see you, I should not have come here at all if I had not so faithfully promised to do so. When I did come, I purposely rang the ser- vants' door and waited in the ser- , vents' hall, as became the poor fellow" that I Mal. For, Suzy, what am I? Not even a ticket-oi-leave man! Worse even. than that! I am a returned con- vict, wbo had to serve out his full term of punishment." Suzy burst into tears and wept vehemently, saying between her sobs: "Oh, Beatty, Benny, never, never say anything like that to me again. It cuts through and through my heart like a knife! You were sent out there for the sins of others, not for your own. You ought, eat least soon to have had a ticket-ot-leave, and, chance and help to recover and improve. But no, YOU had neither. Oh, Benny, why was it that you had neither? I know You deserved both." "Ale no, Suzy; in the law I deserved no indulgence. My fate followed me even out there. Listen, dear SUM" "Yes, Benny." "You knew Tony, my stepfather?" "Of eourse, Benny," "And you knew the Nut Cracker?" "Nut Cracker? l'o, 'Benny." "No, of course you didn't. Well, he was a pal of my stepfather's, after my stepfather went entirely to the bad, It was my stepfather who committed that burglary for which I was lagged.

"Of coUrse, I always knew that you had nothing to.do with it, Benny." etut, you see, I knew who did it, and where the thieves and the goods were both to be found. And then the evidenee was very strong against me, Also. And tell you, Suzy, it Was a. great etretch ot cleMeney, or of pence*, to give me the chance, as the tourt to clear myself by turning queen's evidenee arid giving up the burglars!
