CHAPTER XXXV.—fCoNTijiUErO
"You!" she exclaimed "1 thought
you were dead!"
"Truly," he said, "and you rejoice to
find that I still live is it not so, Mar
jorie?"
She did not answer him her very
blood seemed to be freezing iu her
•elns, and her face wore such an ex
pression of horror that for a moment
even he was rendered dumb.
"Marjorie," he said, "let me hear
your words of welcome. I am an exile
now. driven to seek refuge in Scotland,
to escape the bullets of my foes."
"Why—why have you come to me?"
"I have come to you for comfort. I
have come take you with me to share
my Englis\i home!"
"To share your home!" echoed Mar
jorie. "I will not—no, never. You
bave done me evil enough already—
but I am free, I know you now, and
will not go with you."
"You are free!" he said. "What do
you mean by that, mon ami?"
"I mean," said Marjorie, "that you
•re nothing to me. You have said so,
and I know It, and I wish never to see
your face again."
"Possibly, but our wishes are not al
ways gratified. I am sorry you cannot
give me a better welcome, since you
will see me not once, but many times
as to being free, that Is all nonsense.
We are in Scotland now, remember
and you—why, you are my wife."
"Your wife!"
"Yes, my wife—and now, cherie—al
though I could use force if I chose, I
have no wish to do so. I ask you mere
ly to fulfill your duty and come with
me to my home."
For a moment Marjorie gave no an
swer what could she say or do? No
need for him to tell her she was in his
power, she knew it only too well. While
In France he had the power of turning
her from his door, and heaping igno
iny not only upon herself, but upon
her child in her own country his pow
er was absolute over them both.
With a wild cry she threw up her
hands and called on God for help and
comfort, but no answer came it seem

"Keep back," she
Cried "don't touch me."
"W hat do you mean?"
I mean that I hate and fear you!
Wife or no wife, I will never live with
you again—never, never!"
Confident of his own power, Caussi
diere never winced. He had expected
(something of this kind, and was not
wholly unprepared for it. He said
nothing, but quietly watching his op
portunity, he lifted the child in his
arms. Finding himself thus suddenly
ami roughly seized from his mother's
si !o, Leon screamed wildly, but Oaus
eidiere shook him, and bade him be
at neace.
That is what your mother lias

your father. Xow I will teach
otherwise."
"Give him to me

our child," returned Caussidiere,
with a sneer "the child is mine. I
have a right to take him, and to keep
him. too, and that is what I mean to
do!"
"To keep him!" cried Marjorie "you
would never do that you do not want
him if you do not care for him, and he
Is all I have in the world."
"But I mean to keep him all the
lame!"
"You shall not you dare not you

she cried "give
She stretched forth her arms to take
the child, when Caussidiere, livid with
passion, raised his hand and struck
her in the face. She staggered back
then with a cry she fell senseless to the
ground.
When she opened her eyes it was
luite dark all about her, and as quiet
as the grave.
"Leon," she moaned feebly, but no
answer came.
Gradually the dizziness passed away
ahe remembered all that had occurred!
and with a low moan she sank again
upon the ground, crying bitterly.
But soon her sobs abated, and im
patiently brushing away her tears, she
set herself to wonder again what she
fcust do. On one thing she was deter
mined, to be with her child. Yes at
any cost they must be together.
She rose to her feet again and stag
ger-i on toward the Castle. Her scald
Ins tears fell fast, her breast was rent
wtth sobs and for the first time in
her life she began to question ths be
neficence of the Divine Father, whom
•he had been taught from her child
hood to revere.
It was late when she reached the
Castle. Miss Hetherlngton, having
Crown fearful at her long absence.
rushed forward to meet her then with
a cry she shrank away.
"Majorie,' she exclaimed, "what's
wrong, and—and where's the bairn?"
At the mention of Leon, Majorie
wrung her hands.
"He has come back and taken him
from me!"
She looked so wild and sad that the
old lady thought her reason was going.
Her face was white as death, and there
was a red mark on her forehead where
the man had struck her. Miss Hcther
ington took her hands and soothed her
gently when she saw that her calm
ness was returning to her, she said
"Now, Majorie, my bairn, tell me all
about it!"
And Majori? told, trembling and cry
ing meanwhile, and imploring Miss
Hetherington to recover her child.
"Dinna fret, Marjorie," she said, pat
ting the girl on the head "there's
nothing to fear. The man's a knave,
we ken, but he's a fool as weel! Bring
harm to his own bairn, not he!—he's
o'er sharp to put himsel' into the power
o' the English law! 'Tis the siller he
wants, and 'tis the siller he means to
get!"
"But what shall we do?" sobbed Mar
jorie.
"Do?—nothing. Bide quiet a while,
and he'll do something, mark me!"
"But Leon—what will become of
Leon?"
"Dinna greet for the bairn I tell ye
he's safe enough after all, he's with
his father."
"But he mustn't stop I must get him
back, or it will kill me."
"You shall have him back, never
fear, Marjorie."
"But to-night—what can be done to
night?"
"Nothing, my lassie—absolutely no
thg. Get you to bed and rest you, and
to-morrow I'll tell you what we must
do."
After a good deal more persuasion
Marjorie was induced to go to her
room, but during the whole of that
night she never closed her eyes, but
walked about in wild unrest.
When the dawn broke she descended
the stairs, and to her amazement found
Miss Hetherington in the dining-room,
just as she had left her on the preced
nlft*
WaEed:
her eyes were dim. With a piercing
cry, Marjorie ran forward and fell at
her feet.
"Mother!" she cried "dear mother
what i3 the matter?"
The old woman laid her trembling
hand upon Marjorie's brown head and
smiled.
'"Tis nothing, my child," she said.
The hours of the night have passed
er quickly for me, you see, for I sat
thinking, and now you see the dawn
has come. Marjorie, my poor Mar
jorie! I wonder you can ever find it in
your heart to call me mother! see
what sorrow has come to you through
me."
"Through you? Oh. no, no, no!"
"Ay, but 'tis so. Marjorie. 'The sins
of the fathers shs.ll be visited upon the
children unto the third and fourth
generation. Through my sin vou suf
fer."
"Do not say that—it is not true."
Ay, but it is true. Through mv sin
you were made a poor outcast, with no
mother to watch over you, no kind
hand to guide you. When I think on
it, it breaks my heart, Marjorie—it
breaks my heart."
About ten o'clock that morning a
messenger came to the Castle bringing
a note for Marjorie. It was from Caus
sidiere, and dated from Dumfries.
"I am here," he wrote, "with the
child. Do you propose to join me, as
I can force you to do so if I choose, or
am I to keep the child only? 1 might
be induced to yield him up to you upon
certain conditions. Let me know what
ou mean to do, as my stay here will
not be of long duration, and
"You'll find him ben yonder," said
the gir!, pointing to a door on the
ground floor
{Sutherland beckoned to her to open
the door she did so. He entered the
room and closod the door behind him.
Caussidiere leaped to his feet with an
oath. Leon, who had been sitting pale
and tremulous in a corner, rushed for
ward with a cry of joy.
But before he could reach Suther
land's side his father clutched him and
drew him back, grasping the child so
roughly as to make him moan with
pain.
Then, white and furious, Caussidiere
faced Sutherland.
"So, it is you!" he exclaimed. "How
dare you intrude here? Leave this
room."
Sutherland, who had placed his back
to the door and put the key in his
pocket, made no attempt to move. He
was able to keep his self-control, but
his face was white as death.
"Monsieur Caussidiere," he said, "I
have come for that child."
"Really," said Caussidiere, with a
sneer "then perhaps you will tell me
what you propose to offer for him?
Madame Caussidiere must pay dearly
for having made you her messenger."
"She will pay nothing."
"What do you mean, monsieur?"
"What I say. I mean to take that
child and give you nothing for him.
You have come to the end of your
tether, Monsieur Caussidiere. You will
find this time you haven't got a help
less woman to deal with!"
Caussidiere looked at him with a new
light in his eyes. What did It mean?
Had the man really power? and if so,
to what extent? A little reflection as
sured him that his momentary fear waa
groundless. Sutherland might talk as
he chose. Caussidiere was master of
the situation, since with him lay all the
authority of the law.
"Monsieur," he said, "you are an ad
mirable champion. I congratulate ma
dame on having secured you. But pray
tell her from me that her child remains
with her husband, not her lover."
In a moment Sutherland had caught
him by the threat.
"Scoundrel!" he cried.
"Let me go!" hissed Caussidiere. "If
you have taken my wife for your mis
tress, you shall not bully me!"
But he said no more. Grasping him
more firmly by the throat, Sutherland
shock him till he could scarcely
breathe then lifting him, he dashed
him violently to the ground then,
without waiting to see what he had
done, he lifted the frightened child in
his arms and hurried from the place.

"LEON CAUSSIDIERE."
Marjorie's first impulse was to rush
to the place where she knew her child
to be, but Miss Hetherington restrained
her.
"Bide a wee, Marjorie," she said
"we'll get the bairn and not lose you."
She dismissed Caussidiere's messen
ger, and sent her own servant for Suth
erland.
When the young man arrived she
saw him alone, told him in a few words
what had occurred and put Caussi
diere's letter in his hand.
"Bring back the child, Johnnie Suth
erland," she said, "even if you have to
kill the father.'
Sutherland took the letter, and, with
these instructions ringing in his cars,
went to Dumfries to seek Caussidiere
at the place mentioned. He was like
a man demented the blow had been so
sudden that he hardly realized as yet
what it all meant he only knew that
he had fallen from the brightest hope
to the blackest despair, and that hence
forth he must endure a living death.
The house he sought was a small inn
in one of the by-streets of Dumfries,
and Sutherland knew it well. He en
tered the place, found a shock-headed
servant girl In the passage and asked
for the "French gentleman who was
staying in the houae."
The answer is
simple enough. Among the patriots of
the Parisian Commune there were two
Caussidieres, in no way related to each
other, but equally doubtful in their
conduct, and their antecedents and it
happened, curiously enough, that our
Caussidiere's alter ego had also been
arrested for treasonable practices

Arc Lamp Without Curtoons—A New In
vention That Will Make Them Pos
sible—.Signaling at Sea by Night—
Mushroom Caves.
Arc Lamps Without Carbons.
From the London Daily Mail Pro
visional protection has just been ob
tained for what appears to be a valu
able electric arc lamp invention. The
chief merit of the new lamp, for which
patents have been applied for in Eng
land and other countries by Mr. Peter
Spies of Fossdeneroad, Charlton, lies
in the fact that the ordinary carbons,
inseparable from other electric arc
lights, are not required at all.
Nowadays everybody is more or less
familiar with the arc lights used so
extensively for street and other out
door illumination. Doubtless, however,
few of the general public are aware
that at the point of illumination the
electric current flows along sticks of
carbon, which are gradually burned
away by the intense heat and have to
be regularly replaced. The cost of
material, time and labor this neces
sitates is expected to.be saved by the
carbonless arc lamp, the newest in
vention.
In an interview with a Daily Mail
representative the Inventor and pat
entee explained the advantages and
general principles of this latest ad
vance. "On an average," said Mr.
Spies, "after every flfty hours' burning,
the carbons have to be renewed. The
new lamp, as opposed to this, will re
quire no attention for at least twelve
months, except an occasional outside
cleaning. It has no Intricate clock
work worked by an electro-magnet to
get out of order, or to display the or
dinary antics of the arc light. My
arc lamp is simply an air-tight glass
globe, from which the air has been
exhausted. Inside are two L-shaped
aluminum arms tipped with platinum,
which take the place of the old-fash
ioned carbon, and are regulated by a
pendulum.
"The arc lamp does not require to
be suspended perpendicularly. In fact,
it is intended to be fixed to project
horizontally. It throws no shadows
and reduces the expenses of mainte
nance to a minimum. The wasting of
the aluminum arms, owing to their
being enclosed In the airless globe, is
so small that only a yearly replace
ment becomes necessary."

for the twelve months, £2,679. It should
be borne in mind that during the first

was small, there was a loss of £500,

Underground Paris, damp and dark
is comparatively little known. A part
of this area is devoted to the cata
combs and the rest is a vast garden to
provide luxuries for the happy people
above in the sunshine. For twenty
miles these gardens extend, being from
twenty to 100 feet below the pavement.
The only entrance is circular, like a
well, out of which a long pole stands
and through this pole sticks are thrust.
This primitive ladder, the base of
which swings below like a pendulum,
is the only means of reaching the
caves. Disused stone quarries are the
mushroom gardens, the interiors like
roci: temples. The caves are owned
by different people, but are inspected
periodically by the government. An
important item in mushroom culture
is fresh air and here and there air
holes are bored, beneath which coke

Measuring Thunderstorms.
As a matter of fact thunder and
lightning occur simultaneously the In

only travels at the rate of 1,100 feet

Is almost Instantaneous. But It is an
easy matter to tell, at least approxi
mately, how many miles a thunder
storm Is away. A noK&al pulse will
«»eat about one stroke to the second,
and by counting the pulse-beats during
interval of the lightning and the thun
der, the lapse of seconds is arrived at
and consequently the number of feet
which can be reduced to miles. For
example. If thirty seconds elapse be
tween the flash of the lightning and
the crash of thunder the storm center
is at a distance of 33,000 feet or about
six and a quarter miles.
Signaling by Sea at Night.
Interesting experiments have lately
been made with an instrument for sig
naling at sea, invented by Mr. J. W.
Haywood. The lucigraph is a combi
nation of typewriter and stereopticon.
Instead of a screen a rapidly revolving
disc or wheel is used, on which are
thrown the signal letters. A pure white
light thrown upon the disc is intend
ed as a signal of attention. When
answered by another vessel, the letters
representing the International code
messages are thrown upon the disc.
The letters vary in size, from a mini-
mum of 15 feet high. This method of
signaling has been adopted on the
North German Lloyd line.
North Carolina Mill*.
In 1890 North Carolina was ninth
in the list of cotton spinning states In
the South, says the Baltimore Sun, but
has now gone to second place, South
Carolina leading. Georgia, the third
state on the list, is over 300,000 spin
dies behind North Carolina. Only four
other states—Massachusetts, Rhode
Island, New Hampshire and Connecti
cut—are ahead of North Carolina in
number of spindles.
There are 220 cotton mills, of which
2.9 make hosiery and 191 spin or weave
or do both. There are in operation
1,054,686 spindles and 24,535 looms
No less than 47 per cent of the mills
run day and night. The consumption
of cotton is now 163,389,000 pounds
yearly. The increase of spindles in

the hours of the labor, all attempts to
do so in North Carolina have failed.
the
a day's work in the mills in this state
is eleven and three-quarters. On an
average the mills run 293 days out of
313 working days in the year.
There appears to be an abundance of
mill labor in the state. The employes
are better satisfied than any other
class, and there is practically no antag

Words Used by Writers.
A statistician in Parlshas had the pa
tience to count the number of words
employed by the most celebrated writ
ers. The works of Cornellle do not
contain more than 7,000 different
words, nor those of Moliore more than
8,000. Shakespeare, the most fertile
and variedi of English authors, wrote
all his tragedies and comedies with 15,

employed 20,000. "Paradise Lost" con
tains only 8,000, and in the Old) Testa
