Oaken fron, head to foot by a violer;t com-
motion; her eyes, opened to the widest ex-
tent, were fixed on a stranger whoui she had
not -noticed until then, but whose ardent
and passionate glance had not quitted her
since hor arrival at`the ball.
" Ho 1" murmured she, with joy mixed,
with fright, ""lrc!=1\liguel!"
And she sank down upon the chair she
had just quitted.
"What ails you, Carmen ?" asked Rainon
Moreno. "Are you ill?"
"Why did you deceive me?" cried the
young wife. "Why did you assure me ho
was dead? Oh! what you have done, Don

Well, Miguel -is not dead, since there he
stands 1"
And her -glance shot toward the stranger.
Don' Ramon had no time to answer, for
Miguel had quitted his place and was ad-
vancing with a calm but resolute air.
When he reached them he said, bowing re-
spectfully to Carmen :
"Madame, will you do me the honor to
dance with me ?"
She grew faint and put up' her hand to
her heart as if to restrain its throbs ; then
realizing that all eyes were fixed ,upon her
and feeling her husband's arm tremble, but
resolved `to have an immediate explanation
with Miguel, she demanded of him accord-
ing to the usage :
"How much do you offer ?" •
"A thousand piastres," replied he.
"It is I, Senor, who will have the pleas-
ure of dancing with my wife," replied Don
Ramon, "and 1 do not believe I shall pay
too much for that pleasure by giving to the
poor two thousand piastres."
"And I will give ten thousand," coldly
-resumed Miguel.
A sudden rage took possession of Don
Ramon Moreno's heart.
"You are .making this a personal affair,senor!" cried he. " So be it 1 I will give
twenty thousand!"
" A hundred thousand 1" said the impas-
sible voice'of Miguel.
The spectators could not repress a mur-
mur of approbation. Don Ramon realised
that by persisting further he would render
himself ridiculous. Besides he was there
and would not lose eight of his adyersary.
What danger could there be in letting him
dance with Carmen ? It was upon another
field that he counted on taking his revenge.
Hence he strove to compose his features
and said in the most amiable tone he could
assume
"Indeed, senor, I should with ill grace
deprive you of a satisfaction which flatters
as ,muck a%It hMrigrs me.._ Your peraistenot
would prove to-mie, were 1 not already
aware of it, what value I should attach to
the possession of a wife whom a cavalier -
so perfect esteem sufficiently to pay a
hundred thousand piastres for the mere
favor of dancing with her!"
Miguel drew a checkbook from his pocket
filled up a cheek for a hundred thousand
piastres, tore it out and handed it to one of
the commissaries of the fete; then he offer-
ed his arm to Carmen.
During this colloquy the young woman
had not made a movement. Faint, half
dead, she nevertheless ha& the strength to
arise and follow her cavalier. Miguel en-
circled her waist with his atroug arm and
the waltz bore them away in its whirl.
"Ah 1 madame," nlurrnured the young
man in Carmen's ear, "not only a hundred
thousaud piastres, but all rey fortune, the
millions I have amassed in order to lay them
at your feet, my very life which henceforth
has no charm for me would I have given
for this moment! Not that I new attach
the slightest value to the honor of dancing
with you, but because I want to tell you
that I despise you!"
"Have mercy!" whispered Carmen, whose
heart blend beneath the insult.
"There is no mercy for a perjurer! Yen
promised to. wait for me, to remain faithful
to me until death,. and you have broken
your baths!"
"But, Miguel, you do not know—"
"I know but wove thing, Carmen—that
you are the wife of another and lost to ins.
