THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE THURSDAY MORNING, JANUARY 10, 1895. s The Reauxlieux-Diamonds By Mrs. HARRIET PRESCOTT SPOFFORD. (These ehort serial stories are copyrighted by Bacheller, Johnson & Baoh eller.and are printed InTheTrlbune by special arrangement, simultaneous with their appearance In the leading dally Journals of the large cities). There Is seldom a lovelier vision vouchsafed to the world of opera than when the young Duohess des Sarazlnes Ui-auxlleux entered her box and paused a moment, her great cloak of sables, as It fell, making the whiteness of her shoulders more white. When she turned in her Blender stateliness, and bent to return a salutation, her dress of palest primrose satin, threaded with gold, and the sudden blaze of her diamonds, made the more poetical of the spectators think of the young crescent moon in the dark sky, that they had seen down the length of Home avenue before they entered. As for the diamonds she wore, they were simply marvelous their size, their purity, their depth, their splen dora collar clasped about her throat, with a sunburst on the breast, and n double lillet In the hair, immense and niaKiiiilcent utontH that seiemed to breathe as she breathed, and to shine with a spirit of their own. There were, of course, none like them in the house, end she wore them as if they were a ribbon. "When she comes into her box." the old Chevalier St. Malo enid, "I see the stars rise In the sky." There had been Innumerable contes told about those diamonds. They had been in the possesssion of the Beaux lieux since the time of the Crusades, for nil that men knew to the contrary. The Keauxlieux of that day had spoiled the Saracens of them, barbaric and half cut stones, one legend ran; others said that the Heauxlieux of the time of Charlemagne, who had carried on the futile negotiations for the emperor's marriage to the Byzantine Princess Irene, had been enriched with them before leaving the east. It was cer tain that they had been recut and many times reset, und it was believed that no woman of all that proud and long-descended race had worn them with the grace and beauty and nonchalence of the present duches Tall, supple, her dark skin colorless and clear, her dark eyes like liquid light, her features modeled In Ivory, as you might say, the She Placed Them waves of her black hair carved out of ebony, the delicate curve of the red lips opening on a smile that took one cap tive, tt was hardly a wonder that the last duke had married her from her home In the llasses Pyrenees, without a portion. The duke had gone down to his es tates in the Islands with a couple of friends for some shooting. At least that was his errand ostensibly. In re ality he had crossed the border to meet n representative of the Spanish court in pome endeavor to compose the endless quarrels of the hostile kinspeople of the royal families and bring fresh forces to urge upon the hesitating king at home the necessity of strong meas ure. He was returning, unsuccessful, from his attempt, hoping to make the pass before dark, when his horse went lame Just where the road wound below the wall of a single tower, much like he solitary peel-towers of Ireland, set on a shelf of the mountain spur, and looking, In the dim light, as if It might be tenanted by bats and owls or by any company of brigands. "Juste del!" exclaimed the duke. 'The last misfortune has arrived to us! !And the night coming on In the last quarter of the moon, here In this land of brigandage!" "I would like better. I confess, to be puest at a little supper with la dame Ulandle," said the chevalier. "How goes that, Etlenne?" "You have had little suppers and to spare, chevalier," was the reply. "Hark, what Is that?" It was a voice, a swept fresh voice from somewhere high In the tower, singing an evening song to the Virgin, a young girl's voice It might be, as soft and clear as the twilight itself here among the hills, and that the echo took and refined away to a very voice of the air. "Good!" said the duke. "If there are brigands where that voice Is, my purse is at their service. Come, Is there a pate, - a: door, a postern, to this en chanted CMtle?" And suddenly a wild alarm of baying and bellowing rose, drowning the sing ing voice, nd an old man stood In the ftate with his hounds leaping about lilm. and looked at the rlderg question ing. Then bidding the dogs begone, he asked the strangers to ride Into the paved court, dismount and be welcome. "We are three gentlemen of Prance," said M. Etlenne, "and one of our horses, you see, has gone lame-." Can you Rive us shelter for a night, and perhaps put us In the way of another mount to morrow?" "My house Is yours," was the reply. 'Take the bridles, Ambrolse!" And an other ,old man who followed him closed and barred the gate and led away the horses, while his master threw open the Inner door and bade his guests enter. . As the duke glanced at the arms carved above the great door, "It Is Baron Rene, V.ux," lie said, In a low tone to M. Etlenne. "He Was one of those that went wild over the Cor'' Sloan.' I remember hearing that our friends had stripped him of everything and dismissed him to " "Not so, monsieur," said the quick eared old baron, towering over him. "He dismissed them to their own mas tors !" "A 'thousand pardons!" said the duke. "All tha world knows the distin guished career of Baron Rene Vaux, and that he has only to take his place In tho world and give allegiance to the king to have new honors thrust upon htm. And none would greet him more eagerly there than his servant, Duke des Sarazlnes Heauxlieux," with an offer of the hand that the old baron could do no less than accept with as stately an air as It was given. Iiut the Inside of the tower attested the truth of the duke's remark the bare stone floors, the scant remnant of ancient furnishing, the old armor and the newer swords that were the only ornaments on the walls; und later, when they had rested and refreshed them a little, cleansed of the dust of their long riding, the coarse linen, the worn silver of the table and the sim plicity of the repast served by a young woman In a peasant's dress. "Was It she that we heard sing?" murmured the duke to M. Etlenne. "God forbid!" said M. Etlenne. "This Olympe Is It they call her? Is one of the maids of this narrow household. That volet It W's the voice, if you re momber, of the enchanted princess!" "An enchanting voice, at all odds," said the duke. And at that moment the door opened, and u young giiti entered with candles In her hand. She advanced and placed them on the table, and turned und made a reverence to her father and his guests, letting the lids fall over two eyes as black as midnight stars, as soft and lustrous as May moons. She wore a plain gown of white wool, with a silver girdle, and her long, hair, platted in great braids, fell over either shoulder In front nearly to her knees. "Grands Dleux!" murmered the duke again, "Am I back again in the days of my ancestors'" on tho Table. "The enchanted princess!" he said to M. Etlenne, afterward, as they walked up and down the courtyard with their cigars. "And of an enchanting beauty." There was no animal to be found In the neighborhood next day that ex actly suited the duke. And as the old baron made the party welcome, and was indeed very glad of their society in his loneliness, there was still no horse iat the end of a week, while the lame enj gave symptoms of recovery. The chevalier rode on with their dis patches. Ambrolse going with him' ns fur as the safer highways, and M. Etlenne remaining with the duke, the two spending a 'portion of every day hunting and adding a great store of gaime to the baron's larder. There were those who were wont to say that there was a closer tie than ap peared even In the remarkable resem blance between the duke nnd this con stant companion of his, and that the duke's father had commended the younger man to the kind olllces of his heir. Certainly no one knew anything with exactness of the antecedents of M. Etlenne, other than that his education had been of the most complete, that he was a gentlemn.n to ithe tips of his fin gers, that his talents were exceptional, and he could have commanded fame and fortune In his chosen profession of surgery had he not pref&rred to be slm ply of the household of the duke. Hut the fact Is, that if there were any bond of a common parentage across a bar sinister and the resemblance was not so apparent after long acquaintance n at first, for .M. Etlenne was much the younger yet neither the duke nor M. Etlenne ever Epoke of It to each other. But the duke was restless If he long lost sight of M. Etlenne; and, as a usual thing, where. the one was there always was his shadow. Time. Is not very long to young men possessed by a passion; and although no one ever saw the young girl alone, yet the hours when they were not out with the baron and the dogs were en dured for the sake of the mornings when she was to be found with Olympe watering her roses In the garden be hind the tower, and of the evenings Beecliam's pills are for bili ousness, bilious headache, dyspepsia, heartburn, torpid liver, dizziness, sick headache, bad taste in the mouth, coated tongue, loss of appetite, sal low skin, when caused by con stipation; and constipation is the inost frequent cause of all of tmem.

It might be, she joined them lit the hall or on the stone benches of the courtyard round the half-choked fountain. There was some thing about her that the duke had never observed before. That virgin air of Innocence and truth rendered her inimitably remote and sacred. When he saw M. Etlenne at last making more bold and walking beside her In the garden, he fancied she was hearing of the glories of the house of Beauxlieux and the excellence of the duke, as he knew M. Etlenne sounded them to the old baron. Somehow the duke could not make the headway here that M. Etlenne did. The wall was not one to be broken down as with some other woman. He saw there was but one course for him. And his Impatience getting the better of caution, of any thought of second nuptials with princely houses and great dots, he made proposals to the as tounded nnd well-pleased baron for his daughter's hand and an Immediate marriage. It was not to be thought that the Baron Rene Vaux, even at the prospect of his own Increased loneliness, should hesitate before the often of such a brll lant future for his only child; and he straightway told her to put herself In readiness, since the matter was ar ranged. There was no disinclination on his daughter's part; and surely no prettier bridal procession that hers ever wound up the mountain to the chapel, she seated on her gray don key, around whose neck Olympe had hung a wreath of roses the chances of lunching presently on which he was calculating with his long ears, 51. Etlenne leading him and walking by her side, her father and the duke fol lowing on foot und Ambrolse and Olympe bringing up the rear. As they all stood before the altar. It was with an air of conllding innocence that she turned to M. Etlenne. Hut her father, leaning on his staff Just be hind, stretched forward his long, gaunt hand and took hers and placed it In the bund of the duke, where it seemed to thut gentleman like a melting snow flake. She had thought, until that moment, that It was M. Etlenne who was the duke. An accident of Introduc tion, the fact of her Ignorance of cor rect phrases and her habit of using none, and perhaps some natural bias as well, were responsible for the mistake. But what did It signify to a well bred and dutiful young gill? Obedient to tradition and discipline, she quietly accepted the duke Tor her husband. She had iio other choice, indeed; and the duke, returning to Paris, took the du chess with him. And when she had accustomed her self to her fate, beginning with being charmed by the delights of the life her husband gave her, and by the prodigality that contrasted with the simplicity of her poor home, Bhe ended by a sincere affection for the knightly gentleman, and held the house of Sara zlnes Heauxlieux as something greater than the house of France Itself. And when her son was born she seemed to forget she had any share in him herself, so proud and glad was she over this concentration and com pletion, this' crystallization in one of all the glories of the house of Sara zlnes Beauxlieux. Only when she saw how black was his hair, how dark his splendid buby loveliness, she had an uching self-remembrance that half the blood In the little princeling was her own, and that somewhere In her own line was a peasant strain to which she owed her beauty. For years she watched the child lest the strain should anywhere appear, and half the teaching that she gave him was concerning the greatness of his ancestry, the mighti ness of his inheritance of renown, the grandeur H hud given him und the duty he owed it in turn. So absorbed was she In the magnitude and virtue of her husband's house, that even the downfall of the king gave the young duchess but little concern, since In her estimation there could be no downfall for the Hues des Beauxlieux and even when, after the many agita tions, the new empire was proclaimed she regarded It as all a disturbance that would presently compose Itself. For the sake of her father's love of the Corslcan, as the duke phrased It, slu might herself have looked with favor on the Imperial order of things; but it was enough thut her husband, loyal to his past, remained a violent partisan of the dethroned king, for her to shut her self up In superb seclusion from the canaille of the new riches and power. And perhaps by strengthening his ar rant contempt for the new people, the duchess herself, nnd nil unwittingly was In some measure the means of us slstlng the duke Into the obscurity to which he presently found It best to re- tire. There had been a grand occasion at the opera, to which the empress had given the exquisite charm and radiance of her presence, nnd the leaders among the women of the royalist party had urged the duke that the duchess might appear and Bhow "that woman," as they always called her, that queen of farce, what the grando dame really was. And, en tlrely Ignorant of their purpose, the duchess had, of course, assented to her husband's wish. (To He Continued.) Giirnores Aromatic Wine A tonic for ladies.
