THE TRUTH AT THE BI0HT TIME.
When Genera! Sturgis went on Ills great
expedition at tho southwest, tho main body

tachment of thrcu hundred men was sent
out to reconnoitre tho road In Ripley, n

within a few miles of that place, the advance
Ciiard of the detachment came upon and

asked him
'What regiment do you belarg to?"
' I won't tell," was the iKiinUd reply of
the rebel.
'How far is it to Ripley!" was the next
question
"Don't know," answered Iho man,su1len-
ly, with the true Rarksilalo gril.
"Who is your commander?"
"Won't tell,
"How far off is the command to wrhich
you belong?" still inquired the persevering
Federal, pretending not to notice the crusty
demeanor of his prisoner. Here that rebel
Informed him In terms that would not bo

"Very well,"sald the officer, drawing and
cocking a revolver, "I will send you there
I to wait for me."
"You imy shoot me If you want to,"ald
the Confederate, "but you will ho sorry for

"Wliv?
"Ileeauso there arn a hundred men over

Hired a wreath of fragrant roses sudden
ly fell on bis head, and, looking tip in
womUr, he beheld, reaching out from
the embroldtreil draperies of nu over

with jjrmt, t'nrk evis, and
long, curling black locks, who atnnd
smiling mid throwing him kUs.cn from
1ier curved lips colored like n porno
grauate. While tue Mill gazed n nurre
had como forward nnd dr.iwn tho child
awny; tho curtains were closed, and lie
siw tho Utile crcaluro no more.
Suoh was the vision (hat the atttstlad
carried so long in his memory; in his
.memory only, fur he ba.t 110 Mcond
iilimpse of (he cbild. That very day nn

courseof (Imeolhir faces appeared Ibere,
but they were strange faces and among
them was nevtr (he oue for which he
looked.
Now, ns C.irmilitie xnt painting alone,
he thought nf nil tbU; of the struggle
that had ended at length iu success; of
his bur.) unfriended boyhood, nud of the
benutilnl child with her fragrant rose
crown, which had seemed almost like a
prophecy. Thut rosc-wrcath, dry nud
withered now, was nil that was left to
him of the fair visiou, but when this
meriting, in taming over nn old port

Ih i artist pictured his ideal of the child
womau, whose infaulile look and tmila
for tight long yearj had been bis own
dream of love.
Carrauina had sot had an"casy life.
An niptmn from his eaillest years, poor
aud unfriended, be had h' riven hard for
the, means to gratify f.nt inherent idola
try fur nrt which was always cl.imorirg
to Hud expression in form and coloring.
He had fought nnd ho had won; but
uow, at 2G, he stood in the place which
he hnd gtiucd for himself almost as much
alone nt tho vtry heart as ho had Leen
eight 3ars before, when Ihe child's gift

It was not that he was frieudless.
There were uieu who liked and sought
him. women who wouM have gladly
taught hi in to forget his lonelluesi iu
their nfficlion. But though his nature
responded readily to any kindness, there
was oue chord, deeper than nil, thut re
mained untouched; and, from the sweet
est glances, - his thoughts weut back to
tLc unknown child that had smiled down
ou.lilm to long ago.
The ideal head became his great source
of enjoyment, nud, a dreamy softness
shaded his dark gray eyes, as line by
line and tint by tint took him buck into
that past, which, nil lifeless r.s it was,
se-tned to him, iu those moments, mire

Garrudine hesitated. A chancoword
in his friend's speech had suggetsled a
possibility that made his heart leap in

Still, tho object of his search, whitei

aud one day, discouraged at last, ho re

he abandoned work, and yielded to the
impulso which drow his steps in the cus

When he entered the smalt sido-room

these two, but, with an earnestness for
which he wasatn loss to account, ho fol
lowed their retreating figures ns they
moved slowly toward his picture. But
tho next moment an exclamation of .as
tonlbbmeut burst from tho lips of the
young man.
"Why, here is your portrait, Leila!
What does it mean? Who can tho paint
er be?"
With that, he hnrricd out to purchase
a catalogue. Carrudine advanced quick
ly to the girl.
"I am tho pninteri" he said. ,
She 'turned nnd looked at him with ono
steady gaze frcm those glorious eyes that
had haunted .hisr visions for so many
yean.- lben she spoke:
"You painted that picture? And ho?"'
"From remembrance," he answered.
"It uas my only tribute to the little un
known princess who crowned me once
wilh robes. Does she, too, remember it?''
For 11 moment doubt was in her face;
but as ho looked fixedly nt her it van
ished in cerlaiuly. A smile jiibt touched
the bright lips.
"It was you, then, on whom I forced
my roses? a princess who gave away her
honors unasked. How often I havo won
dered since"
She stopped, tamed to the canvas, nnd
ndded abruptly, "But I was a child then;
aud hero"
"Here you nre ft woman." said Carra
dine, completing the unspoken sentence.
"It is so hard to understand? The Bame
power that kept the child in my heart
showed me iuto what she wonld ripen."
She did not look at him uow, but at
the picture, as she asked in a low voice,
"And whom am I to thsuk for such an
honoi?"
"My namo is Hubert Carradine," he
answered, nnd saw at oucj that it was nn
nufamill.ir vord to her. "And yours?
Through all these years your face has
haunted me always, but your name I
uever knew."
Sho hesitated a moment, then turned
lo him,
"You nevtr knew my namt? Then
Ihiuk of mo still as yon have thought
of mo through all of Iho many psst
years,'' she slid, nhulf smile lingering
about her mouth, but never lighting the
great dark that was shaded by some sub
tle sadness. Toe look, the toue, transport-id
Carrndine beyoud runt-mbr.ince
of place or circumstance, iuto the unreal
realm nf imagination in which his wish
was a ipreme ruler.
"I have, thought of yon always ns ray
life and my lovj." he said, half ul con
sciously, his dreamy, deep gray eyes
clriiug tip in her face. She blushed
suddenly, und then paled in au instant.
Just Iheu her former companion entered
the room.
I inn TjoIU Auvernay.' she said, has
lily, "and Ibis is Cecil Wyodhiuu, my

Xot another wor-i was slid. As the
young man upprnacuoil, ourrnniuo ieu
back n step and looked ut the two. His
was n faIr,handsome face, so little mnik

for an nupracticed eye to conjeotnre with
what lines the shaping character would
yet stamp it. Neyr rthfUss, with one

She sail) a few low.spnken words to her
companion, who presently moved toward
Curradine, and addressed him
"I have the honor of speaking to Mr.
C.irradlne, the painter of this piclun?'
Carradiue bowed without speaking.
"Will you pardon me for asking if It
is a fancy aketch?" continued Mr. wynd
ham.
"Partly so, lint suggested by the face
of a little girl," answered the artist
"lint the likeness is so very striking!'
muttered the yonog gentleman. "I must
have it n't any rate. Of course you will
part with it at your own price?''

Carradlno saw Leilia Auvernay once
more before she returned lo htr home in
a distant town. Then he took bis pic

It lu bis studio, where his eyis could find

It was very brief, but it was enough tu

almost unconsciously expictiug,
Tlio teller was from L0HI.1 Auvernay.
He went to her nt once. She met bim
with a laughing light iu her eyes such us
he had uol s;en thero when she stood iu
the gallery bcsldo her betrothed husband;
a light which -rtia'led tho merry child
who bait smiled down 011 him so Lpng ngo.

He looked searchiugly into her smiliug
face.
"And Mr. Wyndham?" ho asked, -in a
low voice.
She laughed without so much asu flush
of emotion.
"Mr. Wyndham has gone with the rest
of my worldly possessions. Did I not
sty that I had lost everything? You see,
Mr. Curradine, that I am not of as much
worth uow as my picture."
Tho words, ns sho said them, did uol

"Do I look so?" sho asked, gnly. "As

Here n quick, vivid color shot iuto her
cheeks, but sho went on. "Thero sever

Carradluo's grasp' tightened ou her

"Leilia, he said, "ouce your nnswer

"Will I comtl'' she repeated, looking
