' Unattended by domestic animals, al- most anyone was free to enter. The only classes of persons spe cifically ex eluded were monks and these who are pock-marked—the last named pe�rsuni- ably because they were believed to be infectious. ' Two or three times a, day Louis XVI'used to gratify the curi- osity of his subjects by corning out of the Oeil de Boeuf into the gallery to consult a thermometer which hung there; and. it is likely -enough that the loyal would have followed his majesty baclr.;, into his own apartments if the entrance to therm had not been guarded by a gorgeous and tremendous beadle, who lurked, there by day behind a screen, and,.when night fell, dragged a' little bed into the huge hall, and slept and snored there in magnificent solitude. Great shades are evoked when we call the roll . of those /whose foot- steps rang in the hall in those days of easy going ceremony. Fair ladies first—Pompadour ` and the Dubarry, not to rnentioti Marie Antoinette; great- swaggering soldiers like 'rliars and Conde; • an, occasional mnn of letters --Racine, for instance, carry- ing under his arin the manuscript of a religious play which was to be re- .hearsed in Mme, de Mair_tenon's apartment; . b.

Rohan of Diamond Necklace fame, who was arrested there to 1)5 sent to the Bas - tile; those members of the states general, who were to launch the French revolution—these are a few typical figures -which come to mind.

Through the window a rush of air hot as the pant of an exhausted brute` fanned the face of the watcher, and hi a moment when other sounds happened for the instant to cease he heard a. dull roar like the far off breaking of surf. Six precious seconds he had wasted in awe-stricken inactivity, but now be leaped into ac- tion. Fortunate indeed it had been for ,him that pondering over Cardiff's .warning and rendered uneasy by the mystery of it, he had laid himself down to sleep nearly fully dressed. Cap and coat he threw on in a twinkling his boots in two seconds more, and not stprning to lace then he -ran for the stable with his plan for." escape taking shape as he went. He would release the horses, all but one, mount the last and best and ride to the as- sistance of the girl had she not al- ready taken the alarm and fled. There would be no time to saddle the plung- ing beasts in the stable and she could not ride bareback unassisted • in the wild race that lay before them, but he, could stick on without saddle or bridle and hold her from falling as well. And With a 'good horse beneath them the chances' were about. even that they might burst tlpough the gap before the -fire- circle wee. made complete; if not—well, it was their only hope* He threw open the stable door and sprang among the frantic brutes with- in.

He was the roughest of sea -dogs, but with a good conceit of himself, and as ready to defy etiquette as to brave the At- lantic ' gales. So while the king de- layed, Jean Bart got tired of waiting; and to the horror of the courtiers, who dared not demonstrate lest he should draw his cutlass on then, pull- ed. out his pipe,. filled it, and lighted up. - 'Then the king came in, and 'the• courtiers wondered what would hap- pen. • But nothing happened, except that the king, not knowing what else to do, told the gallant skipper that he had his. permission _to go on smok- ing; and then this pleasant piece of dialogue passed between them: "Jean Bart," said his majesty; "I have just promoted you to the rank of. commodore."

The last one he seizedry the halter strap, and starting hint for the door ran by his side wait- ing only to pass the low entrance to make the leap . upon his back which. would be ,followed by the dash up the hill. The horse upon whom he had placed his trust for the life race was a ;powerful gray, well broken -to the saddle, intelligent and obedient, and Wilson believed that he could handle him with the halter alone.: In any event he must attempt it, for he Might as well have tried to bridle the fire itself as, the half -crazed,' plunging beast in the narrow stall. To plan as well as mortal can and then at the very threshold of success find that he had bllandered, and be- cause of that unforeseeable blunder must stand helpless and sweating in the jars of death has been /the fate of many a elan. And such ° was the fate of Wilson as he battled with his' chosen beast at the threshold of the stable. For whereas the other brutes had thundered out with wild snorts at being released, the gray • one, the docile, the obedient. braced himself at the log sill and with eyes rolling and squeals of terror balked in shivering obstinacy, as insensible to word or blow as a horse. of iron. Desperately Wilsnn fought hiin with tongue and toe, but ' the fire bear had paralyzed the brute's brain and he but screamed and shuddered beneath the cutting whip lashes. For ,a minute which he would not have sold for all the golden treasures of the earth the man battled with the beast, then giving up the attempt he threw aside the useless strap and went racing up the path that led to the cottage. ° As he crossed the railroad tracks he heard the 'roar of a gun and a moment later Barbara, hair streaming and clothed only in skirts. waist and shoes, came darting down towards him. Her face was veru • white but her dark eyes, filled though they were With keen realization of her desperate peril. were unterrified.
