"But how could I hayo n Bourbon ear If It didn't concern me?" "Who said you had such an ear? 'Madame dc Ferrlcr." The chief grunted. "At least she told De Chaumont," I repeated exactly, "1 was the boy she saw !n London, that her father said had all .the traits of the Bourbons, "Where Is 'London?" The chief paddled without replying. Finding him so lgnornpt on all points of conversation, or so determined to put mo down.. I gazed a while at our shadow gliding n the -water, and then began again. "Father, do jou happen to know who Bonaparte Is?" This time he answered. "Bonaparte Is a great soldier." "la he a white man or an Indian?" "lie Is a Frenchman." I meditated on the Frenchmen I dimly remembered about St. Regis. They were undersized fellows, very apt to weep when their emotions were etlrrcd. 1 could whip them, all. "Did ho over come to 8t, Ilegls?" The chief again grUntrd. "Does France como to St. negla?' retorted with an Impatient question. bo "What Is France, father?" "A country." "Shall we ever go there to hunt?" "Shall wn ever go the other side of the sunrise to hunt? Frnnce Is the other side of the sunrise. Talk to the squaws." Though rebuked, I determined to do It If any Information could be got out of them. The desire to know things waa consuming. I had the belated feeling of one whp waked to consciousness late In life and found the world had run away from him. The camp seemed strange, as if I had been gone many years, but every object was so wonderfully distinct. My mother Marianne fed me, nnd when I lay down dizzy In the bunk, covered me. The family must have thought It was natural sleep. But It was a faint ing collapse, which took me more than once, afterward as suddenly ns a blow on the head, when my faculties were most needed. Whether this was caused by the plunge upon the -rock qr the dim life from which I had emerged, I do not know. One moment I saw the children and mothers from the neighboring lodges, more Interested than my own mother; our smojty rafters, and the fire pit In the centra of unfiopred ground: my clothe hanging over the bunk, and even a dog With his nose in the kettle. And then, as It he4 been the night before, I waked after many hours. By that time the family breathing tawed the nlr within the walls, and a fine starlight, showed through the open do$r. for we had no window. Outside the oak trees were pattering their leaves like rain, reminding me of our cool spring In the Woods. My bandaged head was very hot. In that dark lair of animals where the log bunks stretched and deep ned shadow. If Skenedonk had been there I would havo asked him to brlqg ma water, with confidence) In his natural service. The chiefs family was a large one, but not one of my brothers and sisters seemed aa near to me as Skenedonk. The apathy of fraternal attachment never caused me any pain. The. whole tribe was held dear. I stripped off Doctor Chantry's unen durable bandages, and put on my clothes, for there were brambles along the path. The lodges and the dogs were still, and I crept like a. hunter after game, to avoid waking them. Our village was an Irregular camp, each home standing rire its owner had pleased to build It on the lake) hore. Behind if tho blaok oesa of wooded wilderness seemed to atretch to the end of the world Tho spring made a distinct tinkle in tha rush of Jow sound through the forest. A rank lht aweatnen pf mints arid ether lush plant mixed Its spirit with the body at leaf earth. I felt happy In being part of all tWe, and the wood were to me as wfe aa the Led chamber of a wether It was, floe ta wallow, damming, ths nwn of m!mr wtw witb my fevered haad.

Tho rich book which stirred such torment in me "you know It was his mother'sl" she sald-Do Chaumont thought I merely coveted. I can see now that tho crude half.Mvnge boy wallowing In "the spring stream, set that woman as high ns tho highest star above his head, and made her the hopo nnd symbol of his possible best. A woman's long cry, like the appeal of that ono on whom he meditated, echoed through the woods nnd startled him out of his wnllow. v CHAPTER III I SAT up with the water trickling down my back. Tho cry was repeated, out of the west. I knew the woods, but night niters tho most familiar plnces. It was so dnrk In vaults and tunnels of trees and thickets that I might havo burrowed through tho ground almost ns easily ns thresh n path. Tho million scarcely nudlbla noises that fill n forest surrounded me. nnd twigs not broken by me crncked or shook, bull I made directly toward the woman's volco which guided me more plainly; but left off running ns my ear detected that she was only In perplexity. Sho called nt intervals. Imperatively but not In con tinuous screams. She wns n white woman, for no squaw would publish her discomfort. A squaw If lost would camp sensibly on a bed of leaves, and find her nny back to the village In tho morning. The wilderness was full of dnngors, but when you nro'eldcr brother to tho bear and the wildcat you lenrn their habits and avoid or outwit them. Climbing over rocks and windfalls I camo against a solid log wall nnd heard tho woman talking In a very pretty chat ter tho other side of It. She only left off talking to call for help, nnd left off calling for help to scold and laugh again. There was n man Imprisoned with her, and they wera speaking English, a lan guage I did not then understand. But what had happened to them was very plain. They had wandered Into a pen .built by hunters to trap bears and could not And the bUBh-maskcd and winding opening, but wero traveling around tho walls. It was lucky for them that n bear had not arrived first, though In that case their horses must havo smellcd him. I heard the beasts shaking their bridles. I found my way to the opening and whistled. At once tho woman ceased her chatter and drew In her breath, nnd they both asked me a question that needed no interpretation. I told them where they were, and tho woman began talking at once In my own tonguo and spoke It as well as I qould myself. "In a bear pen? George, he saja we arc In a bear penl Take us out, dear chief, before tho bear family arrive homo from their ball. I don't know whether you uro a chief or not, but most Indians are. My nurso was a chief's daughter. Where are you? I can't sco nnythlng but chunks of blackness." I took her horse by the bridle and led him, arid so got both the riders outside. They had no tinder, and neither had I; and all of us groped for the way by which they had come to tho bear pen. Tho young man spurred hla horse In every direction and turned back unable to get through. Though we could not see one another I knew that both the adventurers were young, and that they expected to bo called to severe account for the lawless act they were committing. Tho girl, talking English or French or Mohawk almost in ono breath, took the blame upon herself nnd made light of the boy's self-reproaches. She laughed and said; "My father thinks I nm with Miss Chantry, nnd Miss Chantry thinks I am with my father. He will blame her for letting me rldo with Qeprge Croghan to meet him, and lose tho way and so get Into the bear pen. And sha will blame my father, and your dearest Annabel will let tho Count de Chaumont and Miss Chantry fight It out. It Is not an affair for youth to meddle with, George " Having her for Interpreter the boy and I consulted. I might have led him back to our hunting camp, but It was a, hard road for a woman and an Impossible one for horses. There was no Inhabited house nearer than Do Chaumont's own. Ho de cided they must return to the road by which they had come Into the bear pen, nnd gladly acepted my offer to go with hlra; dismounting and leading Annabel de Chaumont's horse while I led his. We passed over rotten loga and through black tangles, the girl bending to her saddle bow, unwearied and full of laughter. It was plain that he could not find nny out let, and falling behind with the cumbered horse he let me guide the party. I do not know by what Instinct I felt my way, conscious of slipping between the wild citizens of that vast town of trees; but we finally reached a clearing and paw across the npen space ft lighted cabin. Its ashless windows and defec tive chinks were glided with the yellow light that comes from a glowing hearth. "I know this place!" exclaimed Anna bel. "It is -where the Salnt-Mlchals used tp live before they went to my father's settlement at Le Rayvllle. Lopk at the haijse.1 Nobody Uvea there. It must be full Qf witches." YtHn jmjsic testified that the witohea wero merry. We halted and the horses p.4ghed and were answered by others of their kind, "George Oroghan'a grandmother waa struefc by a witch ball.

Tho man looked nt me auspiciously, though he was ruddy and good-natured. but he bent quite over before Da Chau mont's daughter, and made n nourish with his hand In receiving young Cro ghan. Thero were In tho cabin with him two women and two little girls, nnd a Canadian servunt, like a fat brown bear, enmo from tho rear of tho house to look at us, and then went back to tho horses. All tho women began to speak, but An nabel dc Chaumont could talk fusler than tho four othors combined, so they knew our plight before we learned that they were tho Grlgnon and Tank families, who were going Into the West to find settlement nnd had mndo tho houso their uunp for one night. Tho Dutch mold, dark and round-eyed, and tho llaxcn lit tle Grlgnon, had respect for their ciders nrld held their tongues whllo Madamo Tank and Madamo Grlgnon spoke, but Annabel de Chaumont was like a groo of spariows, Tho world seemed swarm ing with joung maids. The travelers wero mere children, while tho Count's daughter was startling as an angel. Her clothing iUtcd her body like an exquisite uhcath. I do not know what. It was, but It mudo her look as slim as u dragon fly Her white and roso pink facu had a hlgh arched nose, and wns proud and saucy. Sho wore her hair beaten out llko mist, with rich curly shreds hanging In front of her cars to her shoulders., Sho shook her head to set her hat straight, and turned her eyes In rapid smiling sweeps. I knew as well then as I ever did aftor ward that sha wns bound to befool every man that came near her. Thero wero only two benches In tho cabin, but It was Moored and better made than our hunting lodges. The temporary Inmates and their guests sat down In a long row before tho fire. I was glad to make, a pillow of a Baddlo near tho wall, and watch their backsi as an outsider. Mademoisello do Chaumont absorbed all eyes and all attention. She told about a ball, to which sho had ridden with her governess and servants, n three days' Journey, and from which all tho dancers wtro riding back a three dnys' Journey to join In another ball at her father's house. With tho hospitality which made Lo Hay de Chaumont's manor the palaco of tho wilderness as It existed then, sho Invited the hosts, who sheltered her for the night, to come to tho bull and stay all summer. And they lamented that they could not accept tho Invitation, be ing obliged to hurry on to Albany, where a larger party would give them escort on a long westward Journey. The head of the house took up his baw, ns If musing on tho ball, and Annabel de Chaumont wriggled her feet faster a.id faster. Tireless as thistledown that rolls hero and thero at tho will of the wind, up ahe sprang and began to dunce. The children watcher her, spellbound. None of us had ever seen the many llg utes through which she passed, or such wonderful dancing. The chimney was built of logs and clay, forming terraces. As It It was no longer possible for her to stay on tho ground slio darted from the bench-end to tho loweBt log, and stepped on up as fearlessly as a thing of air, until her head touched the roof. Monslour Grlgnon played llko mad, and tho others clapped their hands. While she poised so I sat up to watch her, and she noticed me for the first tlmo by firelight. "Look at that boy he has been hurt the blood Is running down his cheek!" she cried. "I thought he was an Indian and he Is white!" She came down as lightly as she had gone up, and caused me to be haled against my will to the middle of a bench. I wanted tho women to leave mo alone, and told them my head had been broken two days before, and was nearly well. The mothers, too keen to wash and bandage to let mo escape, opened a sad dle pack and tore good linen. George Croghan stood by the chimney, slim and tall and handsome. Ills head and face were long, his hair was of a sunny color, and hla mouth corners were shrewd and good natured. I liked him the moment I saw him. Younger In years than I, he was older In wit arid manly carriage. While he looked on It was hard to have Madame Tank seize my head in ner nanas ana examine my eyeorow, Bhe next took my wrists, and not satis fied, stripped up the right sleeve and ex posed a crescent-shaped scar, one of the rare vaccination marks of those days. I dI4 not know what It was. Her animated dark eyes drew the brows together so that a pucker came between them. I looked at Croghan. and wanted to ex claim "Help yourself! Anybody may handle met" "Ursula Grlgnonl" she said sharply, and Madame Grlgnon answered: "Eh. what, Katarlna?" "This ,1s the boy." "But what boy?" "The boy I saw on the ship." "Tho one who was sent to America' Madame Tank put up her hand, and the other stopped. "But that waj. child," Madame Grlg non then objected. "Nine years ago. He would be about 18 now." "Hcjw old are you?" they both put to me. Remembering what my father had told Doctor Chantry, I was obliged to own that I was about 13. Annabel de Chau mont sat on the lowest log of the chim ney with her feet on a bench, and her chin In her hand. Interest) to the point of silence. Something In her eyes made it very galling to he overhauled and have my blemishes enumerated before her and Crsghart- What had uplifted me to Madame de Farrier's recognition now mocked, and I found it hard to submit It would not go well with the next stranger who declared he knew me by my sears. "What do they call you in this coun try?" inquired Madame Tank. I said my nam was Idizarre Williams.

Madamo do Fer rlcr had not treated me so. "Vou llvo among tho Indians?" Madamo Tank resumed. Tho fact wns evident. "Havo they been kind to you?" I said they had Madamo Tank's young daughter edged near her and Inquired In a whisper. "Who Is he, mother?" "Hush!" answered Madame Tank. Tho head of tho party laid down his violin and bow nnd explained to us: "Madamo Tank was maid of honor to tho Queen of Holland before reverses overtook her. Sho knows court secrets." "But sho might at least tell us," coaxed Annabel, "If this Mohawk Is a Dutch man." Madamo Tank said nothing. "What could happen In tho court of Holland? Tho Dutch nro slow coaches. I saw tho Van Henssclacrs once, near Al bany, riding In n wagon with Btraw under their feet, on common chairs, tho old Tatroon himself driving. This boy Is somo off -scouring." "Ha outranks you, mademoiselle," re torted Madamo Tank. "Thnt's what I wanted to find out," said Annabel. I kept half nil oyo on Croghnn to see what ho thought of all this woman talk, l'or you cannot holp being moro dom inated by tho opinion of your contempor aries than by that of the forerunning or following generation. Ho held his coun tenanco In excellent command and did not meddlo even by a word. You could bo sure, however, that ho was no credulous person who ncceptod everything that was said to him. Madamo Tank looked Into the reddened fireplace and begun to speak, but hesi tated. The whole thing was weird, llko a dream resulting from the cut on my head; tho strango whlto faces; tho camp stufT nnd saddlebags unpacked from horses: the light on the coarsn flnnrr tho children listening as to a ghost story; iiiuuriiiuiseiio ue unaumont presiding qver It nil. Tho cabin had nn arched roof nnd no loft. Tho top wns full of shadows. "If you aro tho bov I toko vou to be." Madame Tank finally said sinking her voice, -you may nnd you havo enemies." "If I am tho boy you toko mo to be, mailamc, who am I?" Sho shook her head "I wleh I hntl it Bpokonnt hll. To tell you nnythlng more would only plunge you Into trouble. You nro better off as you nro than to know the trth and suffer from It. Besides, I may be mistaken. And I nm certnlnly too helpless myself to bo of nny use to you. This much I will say, when you nro older, If things occur that make It necessnrv for von in know what I know, send n letter to me nnd I will write It down." With delicacy Monsieur Grlgnon began to play n whisper of n tune on hla violin. I did not know what she mennt by a let ter, though I understood her. Madame Tank spoke tha language as well as any body. I thought then, as Idiom after Idiom rushed back on my memory, that It was an universal language, with the exception of Iroquois and English. "We are going to a place called Green Bay, in tho Northwest Territory. Re member the name: Green Bay. It Is In the Wisconsin country." CHAPTER IV DAWN found mo lying wide awake with my head on a saddle. I slipped out Into tho dewy half light. That was tho first time I over thought about the mountains. They seemed to bo newly created, standing up with streamers of mist torn and floating across their breasts. The winding cliff bound lake was llko a gorge of smoke. I felt as If I had reared upon my hind feet, lifting my face from the ground to discover there was a God. Somo of tho prayers our priest had Industriously beaten Into my head began to repeat themselves. In a twinkling I was a child lonely In tho universe, separated from my aim oia lire, instinct with growth, yet ignorant of my own needs. What Madame do Ferrler and Madame Tank had said Influenced me less than tho Intense life of my roused activities It was mid forenoon by tho sun when I reached our lodges and sat down fagged outside before my father's door, to think longer before I entered. Hunger was tho principal dentation, though we had eaten ."J"6 n.abl.n th0 nl8ht bore' and the Indian life Inures a man to fasting when he cannot come by food. I heard Skene donk talking to my father and mother In our cabin. The village was empty; children and women, hunters and fishermen having scattered to woods and waters "H,e ought to learn books." said Skepedonk. "Money Is sent you every year to be spent upon hlra; yet you spend nothing upon him." "What has he needed?" said my father. "He needs much now, He needs American clothes. He wept at the sight of a book, God has removed the touch since he plunged In the water" "You would make a fool him," said ray father. "lie was gone from the lodge this morning. You taught hlra an evil nath when you carried him off." v "It Is a natural path for htm: he will go to his own.

Battery A, of South Bethlehem, arrived homo today, nftcr n thrcn-day cross country march from Tobyhanna. In bidding farewell to ono of tho cap tains of another battery this morning Captain Charles H.

Artillerymen, commenting on the praise accorded to tho citizen soldiery camp at Plattsburg, pointed out that credit should be given to tho ordinary militiaman who summer after summer gives up his vaca tion to participate in the program of drill arranged by tho adjutant general, and then drills In an armory one night each week. It Is not ro difficult a task to taka a man off the street and mako an Infantry man out of htm In six months, but to mako n good artilleryman Is frequently the work of years, they declared, adding that although good militia batteries ate scarce, Pennsylvania can boast with pride of four. Tho batteries which encamped hero aro made up of men who, out of a sense of patriotic duty to their State, enlist and m-enllst jenr after year until they havo become proficient In handling tho complex machinery which comprises the nrtlllcry equipment. Mllltla batteries aro hard to produce and tho Stato finds them of UMIe uao for police duty. Henco no motive for supporting them other than the patriotic ono of providing for national defense, which today Is a vital question. AVIth tho leave-taking todny, the mllltla encampments for the Stato are brought to an end. The men havo learned much from tho regulars. In work the 1915 camp has outdone previous camps and tho dally programs carried Into effect taught more vital and actual warfare tactics than were ever before attempted. Aside from this the Pennsylvania artillerymen are Imbued with a new military ardor founded upon practical knowledge of fighting. OBITUARIES Gen. John C. Black CHICAGO, Aug. 17.-General John C.
