Madem olxelle must be wed this night.

It was as if some great houne had shut its doors and wiydows against approach, David would have spoken, but the huge man's bearing stopped his tongue, Instead, he stood by the lady’s chair and bowed. “Mademotselle,” he maid, and he marvelled to find his words flowing easily before so much elegance and beauty, “You have heard me say I was a shepherd, I have also had the fancy, at times, that I am a post If it be the teat of a poet to adore and cherish the beautiful, that fancy is now strengthened. Can I serve you in any way, mademoiselle?” The young woman looked up at him with eyes dry and mournful, His frank, glowing face, made serious by the gravity of the adven ture, his strong straight figure and the liquid sympathy in his blue eyes, perhaps, also, her imminent need of long-denied help and kindness, thaw ed her to sudden teara, “Monsieur,” sho said, in @ low tone, “you look to be true and kind.

David, with his glass in his hand, |wtepped forward three paces and faced the marquis, There was little of a shepherd in his bearing. | “Just now," he said, calmly, “you did me the honor to call me ‘mon- piece.

He turn: | ed to the lady, with a laugh that | chilled her heart, and said: “You put much labor upon me, madame, It | seems I must find you a husband and make you a widow in the same night.” “lL know not sword-play,” said David. He flushed to make the con fennion before his lady. “'l know not swordplay,” mim icked the marquis. “Shall we fight like peasants with onken cudgels? Hola! Francois, my pistols!” A postilion brought two shining reat pistols ornamented with carven silver, from the carriage hol- aters, The marquis tossed one upon the table near David's hand. “To the other end of the table,” he cried; “even @ shepherd may pull a trigger. Few of them attain the honor to die by the weapon of a De Beaupertuys.” ‘The shepherd and the marquis faced each other from the ends of the long table, The landiord, in an ague of terror, clutched the air and stammered: “M-M-Monselgneur, for the love of Christ! not In my house! 40 not spill blood—it will ruin my custom—" The look of the marquis, threatening him, paralyzed his ton- gue. “Coward,” erted the lord of Beau- pertuys, “cease chattering your teeth long enough to give the word for us, if you can.” Mine host's knees smote the floor. He was without @ vocabulary. Even sounds were beyond him. Still, by gestures he seemed to beseech peace in the name of his house and cus- tom. “I will give the word,” eaid the Indy, in a clear voice. She went up to David and kissed him sweetly. Her eyes were sparkling bright, and color had come te her cheek. She stood against the wall, and the two men levelled their pistols for her count. “Un—deur—trots” The two reports came so nearty to- gether that the candles flickered but ones. The marquis stood, smiling, the fingers of his left hand resting, outpread, upon the end of the table, David remained erect, and turned his head slowly, searching for his wife with his eyes, Then, as a garment falls from where it is bung, he sank, crumpled, upon the floor, . With a Ittle ery of terror and des- pair, the widowed maid ran and stooped above him. She found his wound, and then looked up with her old look of pate melancholy, “Thru his heart,” she whispered. “Oh, his heart!” “Come,” boomed the great voice of the marquis, “out with you to the carriage! Daybreak shall not find you on my hands, Wed you shall be again, and to a living husband, this night. The next we come upon, my lady, highwayman or peasant. If| the road yields no other, then the churl that opens my gates. Out with you to the carriage!” The marquis, implicable and huge, the lady wrapped again in the mys tery of her cloak, the postilion bear- ing the weapons—all moved out to the waiting carriage. The sound of its ponderous wheels rolling away echoed thru the slumbering village. In the hall of the Silver Flagon the distracted landlord wrung his hands above the slain poet's body, while the flames of the four and twenty candles danced and flickered on the table, HIS WAR RECORD PROVES A FLUKE Alleged Hero-Forger Turns Out to Be Deserter Frederick R. Besow’s gnllant fight at Belleau Wood and Chateau Thier- \ry with the United States Marines has proved a myth, and the 21-year. old “devil dog,” branded as an im- postor, was waiting in the county jail today for sentence as a forger. Besides, he faces courts-martial for two alleged desertions from service within two months, “I thought if I made out @ good war record I'd get off,” said to bave told members of the prosecutor's office. Besow related his “war recon?” to Judge J, T. Ronald last week, when arraigned on a charge of forgery, of which he pleaded guilty. The judge did not pass sentence at that time, saying the young man's record with the Marines would be looked up. This was done, It was found, it is said, that he never got overseas, that he deserted’ the Ma- rines, and later the service of the shipping board here. Besow's downfall was due to his assertion that L232 went overseas on the transport Dix. The Dix, It was found, was in the Pacific thruout the war.
