A FKRVIU LUVUU.
“roll imiKl nut.”' the mild.
Nearly all the remarkable traits of
southern character, good and bad, bad
rounded to full ripeness in Francis Whit
combe Ellia He had the gift of oratory
the luxuriant, untrained imagination,
the fierce love of fight, the ambition for
wealth, tiie medieval uotiou of honor
no regard whatever for truth in the ah ! prove my honor unstained
stract. a |ierfect faith in the purity of
women, an absolute punctuality in keep
ing his word simply on the score of con
ventiouai honor, and a reverence for
everything pertaining to southern aris
tocracy, only equaled by his hatred of
everything northern and his high disdain
of manual labor and all forms of mere
breadgetting effort. To balance these
characteristics, he was generous, brave,
courteous to those wiiom he liked, tender
hearted, full of warm sympathies and
laudable impulses, charmingly compan
ionable, and possessed of the gift called
"magnetism." by which he had made his
way to his present wealth and power in
an incredibly short space of time. He
had been aided at every step by good
Inck. as such men seem always to be, as
well as by tiie fine intuition of a born
genius, if the mere power to control and
combine may be called genius.
He loved Rosalie Chenier with a pas
sion like intensified tire whenever he
thought of her hut once his thoughts
turned from her, he did not love her at
all. He was not fickle. He simply
lacked the power to think of two things
at once He focused his whole mind
and soul upon whatever for the time oc
cupied his attention.
Rosalies direct accusation against
him had stung his sonthern sense of
iionor almost to the point of driving him
mad for the time. He had straightway
rushed back to Savannah, bent upon
making plain his innocence. That she
should think him guilty of a vnlgar as
sassination was more than lie could hear
For awhile his mental torture was ex
quisite. He went to work with enor
mous energy trying to ferret out the
real assassin If only Colonel Talbot
could speak he might easily settle the
whole matter with a word, but Colonel
Talbot could not speak; he lay there
dumb and nnconscioua. a puzzle to the
learned physicians.
When Rosalie returned to Savannah
from the “pocket” Ellis knew it, but he
did not attempt to see her; he meant
never to apeak to her again until his in- , tud theu w . th u effort he gaid;

understand?'
"Yes, sah." said the girl, taking the
can! and hurrying away.
Tiie veranda was on the second floor,
and overlooked a garden on one baud
and the street on the other; the green
bonghs of a water oak brushed the gayly
painted railings. Ellis walked back and
I forth restlessly, every moment seeming
I to drag itself by with the delay of son.e
thing maliciously perverse. He was in
one of his intense, fervid moods. His
face was lighted as with a pale flame.
, and his eyes, so dark and fine, were
! glowing with the heat of passion.
W lien he thought he heard the servant
i girl returning lie looked around and saw
Rosalie instead She came rapidly to
nim and held out her hand. He took it
with feverish eagerness and in a half
stifled voice said
"Rosalie, i have come to show yon
the proofs of my innocence. Yon said I
might"
"Come into, our parlor,” she said, in-
: termpting him; "you look tired. Have
} yon just arrived?" She had already
- turned about and was leading the way
to the parlor. He followed her. gazing
eagerly doAn at the sweet, warm cheek
, half turned to him us she swiftly swept
through a long hall. She was dressed
in black, which made her crinkled yel
low hair look all the brighter by con
trast. He thought she had grown tallet
within these last few weeks; she cer
tainly was more beautiful than ever be
fore.
The room into which they passed was
a small, bright parlor opening upon a
broad balcony. She offered him an arm
chair. and flung wide the door to let in
the perfumed evening air. He did not
sit down, but stood in the middle of the
floor with his burning eyes fixed upon
her face. She could not look at him, and
her heart was in her throat. His first
words hail revealed to her all he was
going to say She had turned pale, and
despite her effort to keep control of her
self she was trembling a little.
"It was very, very wicked of me to
say that dreadful thing about yon." she
said in a subdued bnt perfectly clear and
steady voice. “1 was laboring under"
"No, no," he cried; "you need not be
gin in that way. it was oil my fault
You had a right"
"I had no right " she firmly said; “it
was mean of me; bnt yon will forgive
me—you have come to do that?"
“1 have come to tell you how i love
yon," lie exclaimed im|ietaously. "and
to ask yon to he my wife. Oh. Rosalie.
Rosalie, how 1 love yon!"
She retreated before him as she would
have done before a flame. She put out
heV beautiful hands and motioned him
back. He stopped short, a strange
change coming across hiadark face. He
was as handsome as man could he as he
folded his arms on his breast ami looked
half despairingly, half triumphantly
down at her. When he spoke he had all
the magic of ills voice under perfect con
trol
•Rosalie,” he said, "yon told me I
might come hack to you when 1 could
1 bring it to
yon as spotless as"
•I know. I know," she hurried to say;
"I did yon irreparable wrong 1 shall
never forgive myself—never.”
"Don’t talk that way,” he exclaimed.
"1 can t bear it. Yon have done no
wrong Yon are all right. Let the past
keep its troubles ami misunderstandings;
1 want to be happy now Rosalie, are
yon afraid of me? Am 1 so dreadful to
you that you shrink from me in this
way?”
His grave, gentle voice was full of
persuasive music. He stooped toward
her. ins eyes growing cloudy and
•oft. Suddenly he flung out his anus
and clasped her close to him, kissing her
hair and her forehead and murmuring
unintelligible things She wrung her
self away from him, her physical elusive
ness seeming quite as pronounced as that
evasiveness which had always character
ized her conversations with him.
"Yon must not!" she said, in a sort of
breathless whisper. “1 cannot permit
it” She actually pushed him with her
hand.
in an instant a flush of resentment
flickered across his face and he made an
impatient gestnre.
"Rosalie, I did not expect this from
yon," said he. slowly recovering his full
height
"Ob!" she cried, her voice thin ami
dry, "1 did not mean to offend you, I
don't want you to be angry with me—
you"
“l love, love you!" he exclaimed, let
ting the words fall heavily from his
ashy lips, as if he were beginning to an
ticipate a dreary failure.
She looked beseechingly at him, hei
nauds hanging loosely intertwined be
fore her
"1 love, love you!" he repeated.
"I wish you did not,” she replied,
something of the old freshness and
naivete ringing through her troubled
voice, "lam so sorry to see you suf

He stood awhile in a hesitating atti
He admitted to himself that, in a way.
he deserved this punishment, remember
ing distinctly us he did ills foolish threat
ening words, lint he had a large faith
in the star of his destiny—that is, in his
luck, and lie spared no effort to get into
tiie mystery of that unhappy night
After a time Sir Edmond Kane came
liack to Savannah for a few days, and
Ellis was flattered by the marked atten
tion |iaid him by the English aristocrat
and his fair daughter. His thoughts
were turned from Rosalie and hia inves
tigation of the crime, and lie gave Mias
Ellen Kane hia undivided attention. The
English girl found him a charming com-
pitniuii—so attentive, ao knightly, so full
of reaily expedients for rational amuse
ment. and withal, so delightful as a
story teller Those days made u memora
ble spot in Miss Kune's life. She wont
back to England dimly conscious that ail*
had xlmost loved an American A« for
Ellig, lie never thought of her again once
she had passed out of hia reach.
At length the day came when Colonel
Talbot regained conaclouaneea. It was
while Boaalie was gone to Jacksonville
that one morning the newspapers made
the following announcement;
"A Mystery Cleared Up—Colonel
Warren Talbot Recovers Consciousness
ami Explains the Manner of Hia Aaaas-
si nation—He Was Struck by Wamsley,
the Forger, Who Thereby (Jot Possession
of the Forged Instrnment Which Colonel
Talbot Had on Hia Person That Night
Wamsley Has Escaped."
Those were the headlines. Ellia read
the account and then hastened to Tal
bot's bedside to get confirmation of iti
details. Armed with such asenraneas as
made his innocence absolutely unques
tionable, he went forth exalting. Ho
Could ngt wait for gowlio to return, but
salie. must I go away wounded to tin-
heart anil die all alone somewhere? I
cannot believe you mean it. yon will not
kill me. Koaulie, will you?” The frenzy
of despair rang through his shaking, ap
peaiing voice.
“No, no. yon wrong me!" she cried
•yon will not understand me. You re
fuse to see that I would have yon tie my
friend—that 1 honor you—that I despise
myself for having snsjiected yon wrong
fully—that 1 never can make amends for
the injury I did you."
“I don't want to hear that." he said
imperiously, "it displeases me. Yon
cannot appease me in that way any
more than yon can satisfy your own
trne heart. Rosalie, you cannot spnru
such love as mine. Yon will keep it—it
is priceless."
He spread out bis arms again. She fled
Ihrongb the doorway and stopped on
the balcony in the bright, slanting moon
light He. too. became motionless. As
'.hey stood thus confronting each otiier
Ellis felt that ail his bright hopes were
wavering in the balance, and the ecstasy
of his suspense brought out cold drops
upon his forehead. He gathered all the
passion of his nature, and his words
tame from his lips with thrilling power
"Rosalie, is this the end of it all? Don't
you love me? Is my life at last to he a
failure? Do you drive me away? Must
1 go? My idod, and I love you so!” .
“Must I go?' he repeated: “Rosalie,
must l?”
“Yea—1—think you had better go."
■he aaid, her voice evetr and spiritless.
Ha staggered as if she had shot him,
drew hi* band across hia forehead, turn-
•d and walked from her to the door.
From there he looked back, wavered,
then turned again and diaabueared.
oiuo utuiiui suggest tne lore* ot suco
passion aa his—a tropical storm in vio
lence. a mountain torrent iu strength.
He was wild, craged, blind with despair.
He tramped slowly along the hall, biting
his li|is. his eyes flaahing. At the stair
way he met Mr. Roosevelt, who, thongb
eudentJy surprised to see him, held out
his hand and greeted him cordially.
“(Jo to hell I" he muttered in response. !
Mr Roosevelt did not catch the
words, he looked after Ellis in blank
amazement as the latter mechanically
descended the stair without having
touched his hand.
Rosalie was crying when Mr. Roose
velt entered the |Ntrh>r, and the old Yuan
guessed what was the matter. When he
put hi* hand on her bead she sobbed:
"Oh. uncle, take me home, please; 1 am
very, very wretched."
"Don't cry, my dear," he gently said, -
still keeping his hand upon her head;
"1 have come to say get ready. Our 1
train is due in a half hour.”
He could not think of any soothing
phrase. He regarded her as a mere
child, knowing at the same time that
she \v;is a woman and suffering now a
trouble which besets the path of all beau
tiful women.
He procured her an apartment in a'
palace car, but she could not sleep. She
readied Roosevelt Place pale, hollow
eyed and nervous.
CHAPTER XXIIL
RKAIJTY AND ROMANCE.
Ue tecnuxl to ijlnq/ In destruction.
When Adelaide Chenier discovered
that Elgar Julian was the man grown
from the hoy who had stabbed her and
burned down the dear old Chenier home
stead, the blow was a ban 1 one. That
Rosalie loved this man she conld not
doubt, and her own exjierience told her
how disastrous disappoiutment might be;
and yet how conld she suffer this van
dal, this murderous Hessian, this house
burner to marry her sister? She had
never known how to call a northern sol
dier by any milder name than robber.
The scar on her. arm where the fluted
bayonet bad passed through would burn
like fire whenever she thought of that
memorable, terrible day iu May, 1864,
when weak and bleeding she sat under a
tree hard by and saw that intrepid boy
fiend apply the torch to the grand old
home. He had already stabbed her and
driven her mother, half frantic with ter
ror. into the wood. Who could ever for
get his face, his air, his energetic, force
ful movements? His features were
enthusiastically bright, he seemed to
glory in destruction. To Adelaide's
morbid imagination lie seemed, as she
looked back through tiie years, the type
of all that w;ts withering and blasting.
She smelled again the bitter smoke from
the mountain valleys where happy vil
lages and embowered country seats were
melting to ashes.
Add to this, personal physical injury,
disfigurement, the horrible insult to a
sensi tive nature of having home invaded
and of seeing the old beloved rooftree
iu dunes, and then the incomparable
desolation to a household where a troop
of handsome brothers and sons are swept
iway and a stalwart father and husband
is rendered a miserable, hopeless cripple
for life, without decent clothes with
which to cover his |Kx>r wreck of a body
This is drawing the picture.
Adelaide kept silent and brooded ovei
tier discovery and its possible results.
Her love for Rosalie was the flower of
sisterly affection, intensified in its colors
and perfume since the death of their
mother. It was the thought of Rosalie
that restrained her deep, burning resent
ment of this intimate nearness to Edgar
Julian Perhaps this resentment was
intensified by Adelaide's knowledge of
the young man’s sterling character and
her consciousness of a deep seated regard
for him iu her own breast. He seemed
a proud, strong, energetic, manly man,
with lofty aims and a keen contempt for
trickery and insincerity—a man to be
respected, even Joved, without danger.
His northern characteristerioe, his vim,
ids moral intrepidity, his radical patri
otism had a strong influence over this
ultrasouthern girl, and she secretly
dreaded to attempt to break it She en
joyed his direct way of putting things,
his hatred of shams, his assaults upon
hereditary aristocracy; she even took a
strange delight in the torture of Us war
reminiscences.
One day he said to her:
“It is a shame the way we had to de
stroy the lovely sonth in order to per
petuate the Union. Nothingshortof the
knowledge that the government is for
ever safe could console my conscience for
the part 1 bore in that terrible but glori
ous work.”
The lightness of his tone and the ease
with which he escaped controversy made
it impossible for Adelaide to find fault
with him. Then he fell into generous
praise of the south—its hospitality, its
climate, its beautiful embowered cities
He made herforget the war and all itscon-
seqnences. With him all this talk was idle
pastime while he w:is impatiently wait
ing for Rosalie to return. He spent many
hours with Colonel Chenier, mostly dis
cussing the Provencal inheritance and
the legal pmqieot of recovering it. Once
when Colonel Chenier suggested the pro
priety of iiis going witli them to France
as their legal adviser Julian foolishly
came near answering that if he conld go
as Rosalie's husband he would close with
the proposition at onoe. What he did do
was to frame an evasive response. He pre
ferred to consult Rosalie in the matter.
Many times Adelaide was on the point
of disclosing her secret to tier father and
to her Aunt Marguerite, but as often
she recoiled from the task, uncertain as
to what tier duty was. The load grew
heavier and tn-avier; the longer she car
ried it the more nrgeut became the ne
cessity for throwing it off.
When Rosalie returned from Jackson
ville she at once informed Adelaide of
what had happened between her and
Ellia
“1 am very sorry for him,” shs said;
"he seemed so hurt, so desperate."
“Well, 1 am glad it is all over and you
have sent him away,” aaid Adelaide,
quite earnestly. “He is a bad man, and
his attentious to you have troubled
papa and me a great deal.”
Roaalie sighed, and for a moment cov
ered her eyes with her hand. HU voice
was echoing in her ears; no other voice
ever war so full of tenderness, so hsunt-
ingly persuasive, to pathetic, so despair
ing.
His face and form were before her in
all the fascination of their evil beauty.
To give him up was like parting with
some forbidden thing whose chief charm
lay in it* subtle power to hurt. From
her childhood or ea; ly girlhood he hud
been her knight. She had learned to
watch for his coming and going in the
valley, the clacking of his horse's feet
and the clang of his spurs and pistols
fulfilling her romantic dreams The dusk
of mystery had always hung about him,
”1 shall never see him again." Rosalie
said at last, lifting her face and looking
at her sister with tearful eyes; “but 1
fear I never can feel sure that it was
right for me to—to—for me to make him
suffer so much."
“I think yon have suffered more than
he.” responded Adelaide, “andhedoeen't
deserve your gracious solicitude. He
will forget you entirely in a week."
"1 wish he would—I should be happy
if I could believe that,” said Rosalie
earnestly.
“Well, we must not pursue this hate
ful subject further,” Adelaide said, ris
ing and taking her sister’s hand. “Yon
haven't lieen treating Mr. Julian polite
ly. He is anxious to see you; he has, 1
believe, come all the Vay from Chicago
for uo other purpose, and h.-? been lin
gering here for a week impatiently wait
ing for your return It is not right to
avoid him in this way."
Here was a sacrifice of feeling on
Adelaide's part worthy of a martyr—a
suffering for another profoundly Chris
tian iu its purity of motive.
“1 know it is wrong." said Rosalie,
“but 1 have suffered so greatly that 1
have been unfit to see any one; aud—
and--oh. Adelaide, I dread to see him!"
"This will never do," persisted Ade
laide: “you shall not shirk the responsi
bility. 1 have exhausted all my stock of
expedients for entertaining him. He
roams arouud over the house os if look
ing for you. Come, you must go down.
I promised him 1 would fetch you."
"Can't I have til) morning? I am not
fairly myself now. Tell him I am not
quite well; that tomorrow 1 shall feel
strong. I hope. You know what to say,
—you will, won’t you?" Rosalie’s voice
trembled and her eyes filled again.
Adelaide could not resist this appeal,
so she went down alone and told Julian
that Rosalie was indisposed and unable
to see him; would he quite well by morn
ing, she thought.
It was a hitter disappointment, bnt he
had to bear it as best he could. No
hours were ever tieavier or slower, it
seemed an age since he had seen her, and
now this delay, with only a wall be
tween them, had an ominous suggestive
ness. When last they parted she had
gone to her room leaving ins p;issionate
question unanswered, it seemed to him
now that she had been iu that room
«ver si nee.
