BEGIN HERE TO -DAY,
To escape hanging on the charge
of sedition, Andre-Louis-Moreat:'flees
from his native town of •Gavrillac
and hIdes'his identity: as a member of
a band of strolling players in which
he makes a- :great success in the char -
Ades of Searamouche;
His flight has causedhim to delay
revenge . on the great and powerful
Marquis de . La Tour D'Azyr, who
tricked Andre's dearest friend, Phil-
ippe de Vilnnorin, a divinity student,
into a duel and then killed him be-
cause he feared the idealist's "danger -
out gift of eloquence." Over the .dead
body of his friend, Andre -Louis swore
to carry on his work of reforming
the lot of ale peasants.
Pearemouche, as Andre -Louis is
now called, falls in love with Climene,
dnughter of the owner of the troupe
and tries to feaget the beautiful
Aline de rcercadiou, whom, he thinks,
will marry the Marquis. Cumene
treat :file with coldness.
GO ON WITH THE STORY.

CHAPTER IX.
"1?o you know," said Climene, "that
I am waiting for the explanation which
I think yen. owe me?"
They were alone together, lingering
still et the table to which Andre -Louis
had come belatedly.
"Explanation?" he questioned. "But
on what _care?„
"On the score of the deception you
have prartioed an us—on me.' You

"A sort or eater," said he.
"A ewe of sister!" She was in-

"Ole TI tie a sufficiently fine
name fer sees Tort of sister. What
sort of ,-see my friend?"
Per the hist bate in their relation-
ship he obsessed and deplored the
taint of ' n!gurity, of shrewishness,
in her manner.
"Her uncle, M. de Kercadiou, is
my pidi,.tier: It is popularly be-
lieved in C;avrillac that 141. do Ker-

tainly care l fee my rearing from my
tenderest t y ears. I owe to him every-
thing that I had. To -day I possess
nothing save what I -can earn for
myself in the theatre or elsewhere."
She sat stunned and pale under
that cruel blow to her swelling pride.
"You should have told me this be-
fore," she said, in a dull voice that
she strove to render steady.
"Perhaps I r-hat'tld. But does it
really matter?"
"Matter?" She suppressed her
fury to ask another question. 'Woe

popularly believed to be your father.
What precisely do you mean?"
"Just that. .It is a belief that I do
not share. It is a matter of instinct,
perhaps, with me. Moreover, once.
I asked M. de Kereadiou point-blank,
and I received from him a denial."
"And your mother, was she equally
ignorant?" She was sneering, but he
did not remark it. Her back was to
the light.
"He would not disclose her name
to me. He confessed her to be a
Near friendof his."
She startled him by laughing, and
her laugh was not pleasant.
"A very dear friend, you may be
sure, you simpleton. What name do
you bear?"
He restrained his own rising in-
dignation to answer her question
calmly: "Moreau. It was given me,
so I am told, from the Brittany'vil'
liege in which I was born. In fact,
I have no name, unless it be Scara-
mouche, to which I have earned a
title. So that you see, my dear," he
ended with a smile, •"I have practiced
no deception whatever."
"No, no. I see that now." She
laughed without mirth,then drew a
deep breath and rose. "I am very
tired," she said.
She moved towards the door, drag-
ging her feet n little. He sprang to
provided she gives nothing in ex-
change." ,
White-faced, . with flaming eyes,
site turned on him at that,
"How? You dare?"
"I know M. de La Tour d'Azyr,"
he answered her. "He is a pian who
,takes what he wants wherever he
finds it and whether it is given will-
ingly or not; a man who reckons no-
thing of the misery he scatters on his
self-indulgent way. Ponder it, OH -
melte, and ask yourself if I do you
less than honor in warning you."
He went out on that, feeling n
degradation in continuing the subject.
On Tuesday of the following week,
Andre -Louis rain into a slightly built,
sallow -complexioned gentleman very
neatly dressed in !flack,
"Moreau! Where the devil have
you been hiding .yourself these
months?"
It was Le Chapelier, the lawyer,
the leader of the. Literary., Chamber
of Rennes, Without halting for .re
ply, he continued: "You are the man
we have been seeking everywhere,
and -1 eholdi—you drop from the
skies into my path."
.They crossed the square and en-
tered the cafe.
"I suppose you haven't heard of
the royal order for the. convocation
of the States General, or the °terms:
of them -that we are tohave what
we demanded, what you domanded
for us here in Nantes! You haven't
heard of the fresh uproar in Rennes,
last month. The order was that the
three estates should sit together at
the States General but in Rennes
the nobles took up arms, headed by
your old friend, M. de La Tour
d'Azyr, and they were for slashing
us—the members of The Third Estate
—into ribbons so as to put an end to
our insolence." Be laughed delicate-
ly. "But we showed them that we,.
too, could take up arms. We fought
them a pitched battle in the streets,'
and so peppered them that they were
glad to take shelter in, the Gardelier
Convent."
"It is odd," said Andre -Louis, "that
I should never perceive. that Nantes
is being politically active."
That night at the theatre be had a
mischievous impulse to test what Le
Chapelier had told him of the state
of public feeling in the city. They
Were playing "The Terrible Captain,"
in the last act of which the empty
cowardice of the bullying braggart
Rhodomont is revealed by Scara-
mouche.

posure of the roaring captain invae;

"WIIAT PRECISELY DO YOU MEAN?" SHE ASKED.
open it, and she passed out without
looking at him.
On the morrow Andre -Louis found
his mind distracted by thoughts of
both Clianene and Aline. It was Aline
who provided the deeper perturba-
tion. Climene's attitude Inc regarded
as a passing phase. But the thought
t
of Aline's conduct toward him kept
rankling and still more deeply rankl-
ed the thought of her possible be-
trothal to M. deLa Tour d'Azyr,
This is was thatbrought forcibly
to: his mind the self-imposed but by
now half-forgotten mission that he
had made his awn. He had boasted
that he would make- the voice which
M. de La Tour d'Azyr had sought to
silence ring through the length and
breadth of the land. What a fine
contrast between the promise and the
fulfillment!`
It happened that the first person
he saw when he took the stage on
that .Thursday evening was Aline;
the second Was the Marquis de La
Tour d'Azyr. They occupied a box
on the right of, and immediately
above, the stage.
That was the evening's first' shock.
The next came after the second act.
Entering the green -room he found at
the far end with Clianene, over whom
he was bending bons his over
height,
nis eey�ee intent upon her face, M. deLa Tour d'Azyx,
That night there were high words
between Andre -Louie and Ciimenec
the high words proceeding ±1ditn 011-
raene, When Andre-Laute' Again en-
joined prudence aliens his betrothed,
she shocked and stunned him by her
shrewish
tone and
her
virulentlys
r
still more unexpected forco of in-
eeetive.
"I'll not tolerate your insensate
jealousy. A girl in the theatre must
make it her business to accept horn -
age front all."
"Agreed;, and there is no harm,
amouche contemptuously to dismiss
hien ina phrase that varied nightly.
This time he chose to give his phrase
a political complexion:
"Thus, coward, is your emptiness
exposed. Because of your long length
and your great sword people have
Y terrible and
ilea g feed you to be as to
as formidable as you insolently make
yourself appear. But at, the first
touch of true spirit you crumple up,
you tremble, you Whine pitifully, and
the great sword remains qri faun
scabbard. You remind me of the
Privileged Orders when confronted
by the Third Estate.
It was audacious of him, and he
was prepared for anything -a laugh,
applause,indignation, or all together.
But he was not prepared for what
came. Andit came so suddenly and
spontaneously from the groundlings;
and the body of those in the amphi-
theatre that, he els almost scared by
it- as a boy may be scared who has
held a match to a sun -scorched hay-
rick. It was a hurricane of furious
applause. Men leapt to their feat,:
sprang up, an to the benches, waving
their hats in the air, deafening him
with the terrific uproar of their' ac-
clamations. And it rolled on and on,
nor ceased until the curtain fell.
