THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: NDAY, THE RIVAL Tranelated from the German: A waving white veil of fog enveloped the outlines of the mountains; the walks of the park, with the dry leaves rustling about them, lookea ngglected, and around the hotel veranda, from which a beautiful view can be had across the lnke, the grape vines lazily shed their dark crimson leaves under the breath of the autumnal wind—one after an- other, Tt could hardly be called cozy, this distinguished watering-place, now that most of the guests had taken leave, to- gether with the departing summer; it certainly was no longer « fashionable place. When the management of the resort had seen fit to reduce the prices, which was equal to declaring the sea- son ended, all the guests who laid claim to elegance or fashion had packed their trunks, hike so many soldiers obeying a effnmand. Only a few belated migratory birds arrived now and then; some gouty old counsellors and other officials, who had but just obtained a furlough, and to whom it was of greater importance to alleviate the suffering that brought them to this place than to participate in the summer festivals of fashionable gociety: and some family fathers blessed with an abundance of offspring, mostly the feminine sex, who really could not afford the luxuries of the watering- place except at this time of reduced prices. That was all. And as to the visitors of the regular senson? Of the guests of the haute saison,only a lew remained, those that could not persunde themselves to leave this charming corner of the earth in spite of the growing inclemency of the wea- ther, and som peop le that found pleas- ure in continuing the intrigues, coquet- ries and love affuirs once begun. Baron Sengen undoubtedly belonged to the lntter class. He appeared to nourish a great deal of interest for the Peautiful Valdini, a prima dona as cel- ebrated as she was charming, who was making all the use that she could of the autumn da, engthen herself in this favor ion for the toils and triumphs of the coming season. She was a trifle k of nerves, the fuscinating Valdini—her admivers Jooked upon this in a flattering way, as an abundance of that ‘‘temperament” which is 80 necessary for opera divas— and under: these circumstances it was praiseworthy that she did all she could for her recreation. It certainly was not praiseworthy, but rather heariless and blameworthy, of her that she was in the habit of killing the time, which usually hangs heavy during such recreation,in a peculiar ; she played with all the men that fate brought near to her, ns a cat does with a mouse, or & snake with the bird. It scemed to give her us much ple to turn the heads of wen s it the playing child to turn the her doll. Of course, Baron Sengen ought to have known that that is the habit of wll prima donnas. For av least a decen- nium he had been what is designated by & nild expression us & man of *riper rs,” or of “‘a sedate age,” and, be- he professed a cortain experience in the intercourse with feminine stage stars. Yes, he had_experience in such things, but’ he could not tear himself uway from the charm which theblonde, beautiful, blue-eyed pscudo-Italinn ex- n, and which gained ngth over him from day to day while he labored to escape from the nets f Circe. 'Three tines he had said farewell to the beautiful she-devil by writing, twice as many times in person, & dozen times he had ‘his trunks packed —hut again and again he had persuaded himself, with irrefutablo arguments, that it was necessary for him to remain still further at this place. The old dandy felt it within himself, with the instinct that is peculiur to such meu in such circumstances, that it was impossible for him to escape from his fate; that he was subject to that very muludy which he had abhorred tluuuv'h life, and_which now ade him hably huppy! No doubt he was in love! Theodore on von Sengren, who formerly treated inine henrts us playthings—he was letely in love! In love! l“mt is a state of mind which borders on the ridiculous in the case of n gentleman who finds it difficult to cover up the bald spot on his crown; and that with a singer, of whom it is to be supposed-——, but no one has a right to suppose anything bud, not even of un opera singer, until e has proofs of it. Buron Sengen was resigned to his fate. *‘Very well, we shall marry!” Of course it was not to be expectéd thay the least difficulties or obs be in the vay of Baron Sengen when he wished to carry out such worthy resolution. He had every rea- 8on to belicve that the Valdini was a tached to him. because she had ev dently preferred him toall the other butterflies that swarmod around her and kept a sort of jolly companionship with him. And a moderate companion- ship, a temporate friendship, is just the thing which an experienced man of the world expects to fiud iy matri- mony. © After thoroughly sounding his heurt ho finally arrived at the bold conclusion that he would sk in marriage the hand of the &ully bon comerade. For days he had deliberated in what manner this ceremony, which he had always thought so very comical in others, should be putinto execution. Dress coat and silk hat? At one time, it was a rainy forenoon, he almost decided to take these articles, 80 useful and ornamental at courting and at funerals, from his wardrobe, but at the lust moment an uncertain sensu- overcame him that before a theatric princass a somewhat more romantic manuer of wooing were in place. He did not exactly mean to do the thing as the hero Lohengrin had done it; for “the managers of the resort did not keep a boat drawn by swans for the use of their guests, Buta walk into the propitious solitude of the autumnal forest, a sailon the lake, or something of vhat sort, seemed fit occasion As we said, he waited several day But as the longed-for oceasion for o 1y state of mind had been scared awny mntudly by the silvery laugh of the autiful woman, he decided to alter his tactics. Nothing else would ans- wer; dress coat und silk hat had to be taken out, In this digonified habiliment a tea-rose bouquet in his haud, and a camelia at his bosom, he went to call on the lady who had performed the feat of Kindling anew the little spark uunder the lava of his heart to a roaring lame ~—and he received the intelligence that my lady was out taking a drive. A drive with a gentleman who had ar- rived the previous night und had been received by her with familiarity, like an old sequantance. He made inquiries among the hotel seryants, and from them and his obser- tions he had reasons to look upon t arrival of the stranger as an interrup- tion to his proceedings. "l)r. Johannes Freuius, editor, Nion- pa.” In this way the rival had entored hh- nlllnn in the hotel register. ad Adonis arrived at the hotel in hh own person, and been received in as fricudly a manuer by the singer, the Baron would have felt no greater un- easiness than he did about this hero of the quill, with his enormous reddish whiskers and his sparkliog eyeglasses. According to the honest opinion of the Baron, unbiased by any self-delusion, this doctor, with his large statue, was anything but beautiful. But it is a well-known fact that critivs are danger- ous for male and female artists, but more than dangerous for the admirers of the latter. As o man of the world, the baron con- cenled tho unfavorable impression which this man of letters had made up- on him, although he wished him into Beelzebub's company. ““An old friend, madam; is it not?” he asked, with a certain emphasis, nt thoir introduction. The singer con- firmed this, at the same timo throwing a glance at the doctor, which scemed to the joalous baron likea look of cuipable arity. ‘Baron Theodor Sengen, one of the srest of my admirers.” las! not an old friend!” added the baron with digaity. ‘*‘But not S sincere in his [riendship than, you doc- tor.” Tho two rivals shook hands with a cordinlity such as can be tound only numnvpv-npl(' that dislike each other. erious smile, again .nu.,mng glance of the affair began to take a decidedly seable turn.

He finished his toilet with the careful- ness of nschool girl whois about to muke her debut at a ball. Then he examined himself closely in the mivror. “Well, my boy.”" he said with a nod towurd his counterfeit, *those are nice stories that we hear about you in your old age.
