jlA WOWS RAID, A RTOltY'oi1' THE SNOW. JVCM London Society. CONCLUDED FROM TF.BTERDAT.J 'What's been the matterMlgnonneT" Helen whfopered aa she oame up to Hilda by the fire, and Marnden stalked away stridently in his. Tarnished boots. "Hare joa told him V Jlllda shook her head. He has been telling me that I wasn't to go to-night, that's all," she answered. "Ordered me not to go; and, he said, for the last time 1" "Now then I" Dick Jouelyn broke in, "come and be wrapped up, yon two. Lady Jooelyn's carriage stops the way. Perhaps you'll give my lady your firm Marsden. Don and I will see after the girls." "Really, Richard," began that "faded beauty Of the baths," Lady Hope, "I think they'd better let the carriage come back for them I" "Wait till it gets there, first, chfae tantet Yon don't know what the roada are like to night. Itatter let na come back for yon. Bat don't keep the horses standing, if yon mean to go, I advise yon. Now, Marsden, look alive, will you f" the irreverent youth went on. "Ah I here's Don. in his Canadian get Bp." Kawdon came in with a fur pelisse over his Vail dress, aud another over hia arm. "1 think this won't crush yon very much, Mies Joctlyn." he said, in his tranquil way, going Btraight up to Hilda: "it is very warm and very light. Let me put it on for you." He trapped the glossy seal skins about her tenderly, under Marsden's hostile eyes and my lady's. The Lombard street plutooratcared aa muoh, I verily believe, for the girl as he could care for anything but himself; though to "form" her for his wife he Lad, in hia eternal self asertion, tyrannized over her till she simply hated him; and, seeing another perform what should have been his duty watohing her faje when fhe met Rawdon's look a feeling of simple dislike he had always been conscious cf for the Sabreur grew sharply into a stronger, and to him a veiy strange one jealousy. Yes, Jeffrey Marsden hated the man jealously sow. Was it he who had undermined his authority over his future wife? Did he ao tually dare to ? He tries to stifle that half-formed thought Lis overweening pride revolted at so angrily. "But there shall be no more of this 1" he Said to himself as he led Lady Hope out to the carriage. The Pierrepoint women and the ether four followed. Dick was right about the night: it was Splendid. Clear, calm, moonlit, with the thermometer down a dozen degrees below zero. A sparkliug snow mantle covered the deer-park aud the hills beyond; feather flakes cf enow draped every tree. Just the night for a sleigh drive, S3 Pick remarked. The two sleighs were waiting just behind lay lady's family ark of a carriage. Luoia's silver collar-bells raDg out musically as the mare tossed her head and snorted, hearing her master's voice. "Keep close to ns, Richard," my lady said, as she settled herself in her corner; "and take care of Hilda, mind." The family ark moved on a little, and then waitdd till the others were ready. Diok Jocelyn lifted Lis charge in his strong arms, and carried her down the steps to her plaoe in his own sleigh, and rolled the great buffalo-robe round her. Miss Carew followed, on the foot-cloth, under Don's e3cort. "All right ?" Dick inquired, taking LU leins. "All right 1" came from the rear. 'Go on, Johnson!" and the expedition Btar ted. The great ark lumbered along with a tortoise-like deliberation; the two sleighs slid smoothly after. Down the Long Avenue, through the Lodge gates, into the iron-bound load, with a wall of snow a dozen feet high cn either side, stretching and winding away yonder like a narrow white ribbon. In the ark, the Pierrepont women did all the talking; my lady was Bulky with cold, and Marsden sulky with wrath. "Well, Mignonne I" Diok said presently, to Lia silent companion, "it's all settled, . ain't it 2" "0 Dick," she whispered out of Ler furs, "how can I ?" - "You will, though 1" was the wise yeuth's mental reply. "And bo, my dear Miss Carew," was Low Don finished a long answer to certain objec tionsurged, half of them, it mast be con fessed, merely pro forma whioh Helen had raised. "And bo I really don't see what else we are to do do you, now? Hilda's no chance with my lady if she stays here, nor Lave I. They'll marry her to this this man, Marsden.

The circle was getting freer, and the pace too. The baud of the "County Crnshers," rather wild and uncertain in its tempo, had just commenced attacking the last raise, number nineteen. Rawdon and Dick Jocelyn were standing near the doorway. Marsden had that moment stalked out between them. They could hear Lim asking about Lady Hope's carriage in the Lall; my lady was going. "Ain't much time to lose, Don," Diok said in the other's ear; "my lady'll carry her off directly. Better go and get your valse, hadn't yon ? She's looking for yon, yon know." Hilda was looking for Lim, as, pale with Borne unusual excitement, she stood beside my lady, with her trembling little hand cling ing secretly to Helen's. The three were at the upper end of the room, where Marsden Lad left them to order np the ark, and couldn't see Don frt lha doorway. "Time enough," the latter replied, oooiij, to Dick's suggestion; "I'm waiting for-.aU 1 Lere it is a despatch from Pyle."

And women are queer cattle." "I don't think she will," Rawdon said, looklDg up the room towards her. "She might under other cironmstances, perhaps, bnt not now. Marsden has managed matters too well for that. The pompous bully would drive a woman to any thing. He was hector ing her about coming here to-night before we started, jnst as if she didn't hate him already I The man's been playing my game all through; my last move will checkmate him. It's time to play it. You've ten minutes to see to the sleigh, and I to dance number nineteen. Uo along, old boy 1" " '.Now tread me a measure, quoth young Lochinvar,' " hummed Dick, as he turned to go. "Wonder whether he's ever Leard of that song, old i Ah I beg your pardon, Marsden," he ejacnlated with unwonted civility, as he ran against the Cra'sus, re turning from his hunt for Lady Hope's carriage. "Hope I didn't Lurt you? All right, Don I" . And the guardsman moved off to fulfil Lia part in the plot, chuckling at intervals over old Jell's approaching discomfiture. Rawdon went ttraisht towards Hilda. Marsden fol lowed. "Well, dear," Helen whispered in her cousin's ear rather anxiously, "will you ?" a pressure or tne nana sue clung to was all the other's answer. Then Helen felt her start nervously, and saw her turn pale, and then Hush feverishly. She had caught sight of Don making his way round the outside of the cirole to where they three were still stand ing. Miss Carew's own pulse quickened Bharply. The decisive moment was all bat come. "Where can Mr. Marsden be?" snarled Lady Hope, querulously. "What a time he is seeing about the carriage I Ah 1 there he is at last." There he was, close behind Rawdon; whom Lady Hope overlooked till she heard Lim speaking to Hilda. "Wumbar nineteen," Don was saying, "our valse, you know, Miss Jocelyn." Poor child l How much those quiet oommon- place words meant to her 1 The crisis had arrived. If she toek bis arm now she gave consent to that plan for raving her he had proposed. If she refused it what was left to Ler "Yon Lad hotter let me take yon to the cloak-room. I think," rasped Marsden's saw of a voice, wonderfully apropos; "the carriage will be ready directly, 1 believe," it added, aa the speaker tnrned to my lady. "Then we had better go," Lady Jlope assented. "Will you take Hilda ?" This was pointedly at Rawdon, who showed no signs of giving way. Marsden advanced a little. It was with his most insufferable air of proprletoiship that he thought fit to say "Excuse me, Major Dariugham. Now, Hilda, come 1" And he put Lis arm oat stiffly for Ler to take. As Don Lad said, the man couldn't help playing Lis opponent's game. That U"tc-(-t"te in the drawing-room at Dane Court just now even hadn't taught him better than to take this tone to the girl a second time that night, lie fanoied, perhaps, that with my lady to back him, she must submit to him this time, and give him a pleasant triumph over the man he hated. So his tone and manner towards her were simply unbearable. If she ever had hesitated, hesitation was past now. If he ever could have kept her, he had lost her in that moment. She lifted Ler Lead: Ler eyes met Don's; and Don read Ler decision plainly in them. A light came suddenly into Lis; but it wa3 in Lis usual impassible fashion that Lestruok in, Bure of winning now. "Afraid I can't forego my engagement and lose number nineteen, if Miss Jocelyn decides for me," he said. "I don't think the car riage can get np for ten minutes or so, yon know, Lady Hope," he added, blandly; "and so" "Excuse me," Marsden said, with his severest, iciest hautsur, "but Miss Jocelyn really cannot " Hilda put Ler Land on Rawdon's arm at the "oannot." "I decide for number nineteen, at all events," she answered, jnst in the way she had answered him before the ball. The child's blue eyes looked at him again in that defiant way that had bo angered him then. Marsden bit his thin lips, and looked at my lady. My lady looked fairly astonished for once. "Really, Hilda" she was, beginning in Ler "punishment" tone. . Hilda shook Ler Lead. "I Lave promised, mamma. It is too late." Then a quick whisper in Helen's ear: "Uood by, darling Nell !" And before the others could speak sgain Rawdon had carried er off. " .My own Hilda now I" he said to Ler wLen Lis ami'" wer" roaul Uer u tuat last valse. "You will rnBt yourself to me, darling?" "O Don, t." me away I" she answered, passionately. "Tk,M me away from Lim. AnywLere with you !' He made no reply in? words; and she had no more to tell him after t?iat.

"Now for it !" muttered Don. lie checked Lis partner, and brought her up close to where Jocelyn was waiting. It was a trying moment; fortunately it was but a moment. All passed so quickly that poor trembling little Hilda bad no timo to break down. Kawdon got her through the little crowd. near the door without notice, in the Lall, and Dick was w about Ler.

"Miss Jocelyn passed through the Lall th! moment," Marsden added. "You must have seen Ler; and and Major Daringhnm." The last words seemed to ohoke him. "Yes," Dick nodded; "I saw 'em all right." "Where are they, then ?" Lady Hope snapped. "I can't fiud Hilda in the cloak room. They say she's not there. Where can she be?" Dick faced the two, stroking Lia mustaohe calmly, bnt with an odd twinkle in his eyes. V. Youiiff I.ochtuvar. "Gone!" The same word from all three, but in very different keys. "Really " began Marsden with a Tortn- tous severity that hucelv anmsefl Dick. Th plutocrat didn't understand. My lady, with the clairvoyance of a woman of the world, and ont of halt-formed susDioions of her own. un derstood everything in a moment. She glanced round her first to see that no one wa3 within hearing; then she said in savage stac cato to her nephew, "I'll never forgive voa for this, sir, as long as I live." "Dear me, oVre lante! What have I done?" returned the guileless youth, not quite certain whether, as he expressed it, "my lady ivas fly to all the little game yet." one wasted no time on him. Her hand grasped Marsden's arm with an energy that Btartled that emotionless man. Emotionless. though, no longer; for her words startled him even more. "Don't you see ?" my lady was whisnerlnnr impatiently. "She's gone with him. They've eloped I Now listen I" for he stared at her as though she bad suddenly gone mad. He really thought she had. What 1 His promised wife dare so far forget what wa3 due to him aa to elope I "Listen 1" Lady Hope repeated, actually shaking Lim in Ler impatience. "This must be prevented. They must be overtaken. stopped l At any risk; at enoe I You must do it." "I ?" Jeflery Marsden gasped. "You. Who else is there i Richard is in the plot. In another hour it may be too late. Wuick, man I quick!" He was beginning, electrified by this languid woman's fierce, unwonted energy, to under stand now. He Lad been robbed, and by the man he hated most. For the second or third time that night the snow-water in hi3 veins ran almost warm. She saw Lis face change. Will you go ? To save her to defeat Lim, remember I There may be time yet." Yes 1" he muttered between his blanched, lean lips; "you're right. There may be time yet; and if I overtake Lim 1 I'll go I But, Low where?" She had thought of everything, this clever Lady Hope, omniscient almost in her self-in terest. The other sledge 1" she answered: "it's ready down there, by this time. Didn't you hear him order it f Follow the track. They have gone to Ashbridge, I am nearly sure. There is no train yet; you must prevent this I But don't waste timet You Lave your coat andLatl Quick I" "Never fearl" Le returned; and the blanched lips were actually guilty of an oath; "I'll do it I He flung Lis coat about Lim, and Lurried through the inner glass doors out on to the steps. Dick, explaining matters to Helen sotlo voce, Lad kept an eye on Lim all the time. Let me see about tne carriage, Aunt Hope I" he observed. "Poor dear old Jeff will catoh Lis death of cold if you trot Lim about on a night like this." He moved away in pursuit; though rather wondering what Jeff could possibly do, you know, after all. Lady Hope caught him just as Le wa3 push ing open the doors that Marsden had just swung back. Through them he saw the latter ruBh down the steps and leap (actually leap !) into his (Jocelyn's) sleigh, in readiness, as my lady had foreseen, below; saw the horse plunge and spring lor ward under tne whip; saw his man get knocked backwards and loose his hold on the reins, and Jeffrey Marsden drive furiously off and disappear. "Oh I by Jove ! you know" Dick began Lady Hope stopped him. "Silence, sir 1" she said; "do you want all the world to know this ? -1 sent Lim to stop them. And he will." "Will he ?" thought Diok; "he'll probably break his own neck in the hrst live minutes, that's all 1' Then the thought of Jeffrey Marsden driving a sleigh about the country in the dead of night, and coming to frightful crlef acainst a eate-poet or in a side-drift. caused Ensign and Lieutenant Richard Jocelyn to laugh aloud. "Take ns to the carriage, sir I" his relative said, majestioally; "wLatever Lappens, we Lad better not stay Lere." They were all baok again at Dane Court when they Leard what Lad Lappened. Swiftly, smoothly, flinging np a little shower of snow spray, and leaving a straight track behind it, that did credit to Don's steering, faster and faster, as Lucia warmed to her work, between the high snow walls on either Land, the sleigh that carried La Micnonne and her Lochinvar whirled alonn the white solitary road that led Btraight to the Ashbridge station, lour or nve miles oil. Muffled in her furs, and with the great buf falo robe over her, Hilda lay back, only answering Ler lover's attempts to reassure Ler by a little sob now and then. The excite mcnt of the last Lour or two Lad been a lit tie too much for the child. "But it's all right now, darling !"jniwdon said pleasantly, taking a pull at the mare as he topped the one long hill that lay between Boodle Park end, Ashbridge "it's all right, now. We shall be at the D'Arbleys by dinner time, comfortably. I've telegraphed to her to meet u a tfl ord terminus.

"For Heaven's sake, Don, don't let Lim overtake us t I couldn't bear to see Lim again," she said. "No chance of Lis overtaking ns, Mig nonne I" Don laughed. "Is there, Luoia ?" The mare tosBed her Lead, and sprang away like an arrow, as the reins dropped on Ler back again. A Loarse cry came from the pur suing sledge. It was bo close behind them now that they could see its occupant gesticulating vehementlv; oonld Lear Lim calling to them to stop Marsden's voice, they both said. "He'll break his neck direouy i" nawaon observed with a grim nort of smile; "and we must leave him to it, I'm afraid I" He looked at Lis watch as he spoke. "Yes; we've no time to waste. A I Ion a I" The mare laid herself ont fairly now. Th speed at which they tore along almost took Hilda's breath away. They lelt the other sleigh as if it had been standing still. i hey Were on the high ground now. biratgm before them, yonder, where the lights were twinkling, lay the Ashbridge station; right and left the snoar-mantled country could be seen for miles. Rawdon's eye ran along a thread-like dark trnok he knew where to look for the line of rails down which the Paris mail was coming. "she ought to be in signt, it tney tout ry le the truth 1" Le muttered; "awkward if she's been blocked np anywhere, now we've got this fellow be hind us I" Again Lis eye ran along the line of the em bankment. It stood ont well against the white background; nothing was visible on it. All this time Luoia's speed never Blackened; they were close on the station now. Where was the Mail t He caught Bight of something at last. A red light; a gleam of other lights, dull through frosty window panes. Then the shriek of a whistle reached them. It was the Dover mail rnnning into Ashbridge. Other eyes beside Don's had caught sight of it. Again that cry to them to stop came from the other sleigh be hind. Don laughed. "Rather a sell for him, you know I He'll come np juBt in time to see us start !" Le re marked. So it seemed, for thy were passing through the gate of the station yard almost as he spoke. It was a tall, heavy gate, usually held open by a catch, but on this occasion by a man mullled np to the eyes Mr. Fyle. "AU right, sir l" that individual reported. as Don pulled up a moment. "The French woman is here with the baggage and the tickets; Mail's signalled. You're jnst in time, sir. Don leaned forward and said a brief word in the man's ear. Mr. Fyle grinned. "I'll take care, sir 1" he returned. The sleigh moved up the little Incline to the station entrance. Mr. Fyle hurried the next moment np after it. Mademoiselle Fanohon rushed out to meet her mistress. The Dover mail ran alongside the platform. Jnst at that moment the pursuing sleigh reached the gate of the yard. The pursuer shouted for some one to open it,in vatn. With an oath, he leaped out and fambled with frostbitten lingers at the latch. In vain, too, the latch was immovable; Mr. Fyle perhaps knew best why. The pursuer saw the train run in, heard the doors slam as its passengers took their seats, heard the whistle sound for its departure. And this infernal gate wouldn't open 1 At last the undignified motion of olimbing over struck him. He put it into im mediate praotice, slightly incommoded by the severely strapped evening nether garments. It was a Bight to Bee that tall gaunt figure e chtval upon a gate-bar I Just as it got there the train began to move siowiy on. "I'll telegrapL, thought" the figure mat tered aloud with a vicious expletive, and pre paring to descend on the other side. Not carefully enough, unfortunately. His foot slipped and turned awkwardly on the middle bar, and Jeffrey Marsden, Esq., came heavi ly to the ground with a badly sprained ankle, where Mr. Fyle presently found him. The Paris Mail reached its destination with out mishap, and Don and his Mignonno got to the Avenue de l'Impcratrice in capital time for dinner, as he had prophesied. Two days afterwards my lady she Lad managed to survive Ler disappointment read Ler daughter's marriage in the Times. So did Marsden, in bed with incipient rhenmatio fever and a sprained ankle. So did Dick Jocelyn and Helen, lingering over their Ute-h-tCte breakfast in the Oak Parlor at Dane Court. It was in that very room, by the by, that in the snow-time last year I heard from those same two people the story of Rawdon's Raid t LEGAL NOTICES.
