CHAPTER V. CONTINUED.
"It to certainly a misfortune to lose
the Jewels." eatd Etlenne with calm
ness, Che calmness of unbri ken f-ilth.
"There is no other misfortune rbout it.
AVe will take steps for th;lr recovery.
But as for Ueauxlii'tix, It Is prepohler
us! No. no, two and two do not make
Utref ! That while (I vi.e of ills burns
Without llroSS."
"Ah, I believe you!" the poor duch
ess cried. "And what balm you brins
a sore heart! Oh, lOtienne, what should
I do without you!"
But when niht came, and the
duchess was in her own rooms attain,
tin horror of doubt and fear overcame
her anew. There was her son's por
trait as Jean had drawn It the sweet
(seriousness, the lofty gravity, tllie
jrieixdng eye, the tender mouth. The
c.uulle lliekerllisj under It gave it a
Beeming life. She Hung herself down
before it na if it wvre an altar. "Mow,
how, how. could I doubt you?" she
cried. "And, oh, how can I help lit!"
she said, presently. She knelt at her
prie-dieu for hours, but felt that help
forsook her. fr'he took the camllentlclc
and went Into her son's rooms 1;uv,
studious rooms, without an ornament
or luxury, only one plctnre on the
walls, a face crowned with thorns. "He
gave Himself for the love of man,"
Beauxlieux once 'had said. "And can
1 do less?"
As she wont bark the enormity of
her own behavior overwhelmed her.
But directly afterward she saw her
handkerchief, fallen on the floor one
of several he had sent her knowing
file lovd fine, sheer things, and had
used coarse oil s so long. She snatched
it and tore it with lwr teeth; then as
she walked 'the floor she 'paused at the
great armolro where Olympe had put
away ithe th!ngs of 'his childhood. She
unclosed it and lifted the little frock.
She recalled him dn it, running to meet
her, his hair flying, his arms extended,
his sweet face overflowing with smiles.
He had not forguttcn how to smile
then. There was it'he little cap, too;
her own lingers ha J wrought It for him
before he was born, and what hopes
and what prayers she had wrought Into
It! Here was a scarf he had worn at his
first communion; here were the curls.
ithe silken curls Olympe had shorn from
his dear head. She kissed them pas
sionately; she wet them with her cry
ing, a mother grieves so over the
For a .Moment
memorials of the dead! She had no
longer a chil l.
It wus the next day that Beauxlieux
came down from town to the chatenu.
The dimness did not go to meet him as
us ual. She sent for him Instead to come
to her. She was standing at her dressing-table,
strewn with the empty Jewel
cases, white ns alabaster, her long
black gown sweeping round her, her
f yes like those of a fa te.
...ui ..ii-i. I,, -i iiijt'.iiiuirr, in lis
tened toward her with an exclamation.
But she throw out her arms In an In
terposing gesture. And then she wa
vered as she stood; and with a stride
he was beside her, and, his arm u.l out
"her, he had led her to a seat, and
ithroiwlng himself on his knees before
her, he drew her face over to his.
"What Is It, my mother?" lie mur
mured. "What alls thee? Art thou
111? Art t'hou suffering? Lean on me,
kiss me, dear, sweet mother."
Khe wlthdretf.-from Ma clasp and
ptwheil him off little, her hand Hat on
his chest. "Oh!" she orh d, transfixing
him with 'her great despairing eyes.
"Oh! how could you, how could you do
It?"
CHAi'TlOU VI.
For a moment. Beauxlieux looked be
.wlldered. He glanced 'round the room
where the llglut of the dreary autumn
day came In through the faded daffodil
draperies as If the sun were still shin
ing without.
"I do not understand you," ho said.
"What does this mean, my mother?
What disaster, whu't misfortune"
"What disaster!" Hhe cried, sharply.
"And you ask! You! Is there worse
disaster than when a mother Minis her
Bon Oh, I cannot say It!" tearing open
the laoe at her throat. "When she dis
coversand a Beauxlieux"
. "A'h!" he exclaimed. "It Is that,
then. My faith, I had almost for
gotten!. I mover dreamed it
to affeot you so, my mother"
"Not your mother!" she almost
shrieked. "Never the mother of a
thief!"
"What!" he cried, Instantly upon his
feet.. "Does anyone even my mother
" and then with a look at her ihls old
Kentleness and pity and love were up
permost again. "My mother," he said
rently, ,then. "My mother, were they
not mine?"
"Then why not take them openly?
Why creep In the durk to do so foul a
thing"
"In the dark? Why, It Is true I did
not consult you. It seemed to mo un
necessary. I thought you would ob
ject, and there would be so much to bo
wild.' And then here In your seclusion
I thought you might never know."
"And does all that make It any the
less robbery?" with a piercing scorn in
her tone.
"Whom have I robbed? I certainly
.had the right.' And Pierre paid mo
Kood money for them. He hns done
well, he says, the rogue. If that is
l I I '1 1 4-?,
doing well, he has done wonderfully
on the Bourse, in all the big enter
prises. His hotel is a palace in the
Faubourg. By the most singular turn
of fortune, It Is the old Hotel Beaux
lieux Itself"
"Do you mean" she exclaimed.
"No, it Is too shameful to be true! Can
a man acknowledge in this unblushing
way that he robbed his mother of her
diamonds and took money for them!
That he crept through her room at
night to make off with every Jewel
oh, not that I valued the diamonds! I
would so gladly have given them if
you had asked. Oh, oh, oh, the cruel,
the accursed things that make me de
spise my own Hcsh anil blood, my own
son! No, what am 1 saying? 1 have
no son!"
"Stop, stop, my mother! Go softly
heiv. Is it that the long monotony and
disappointment huve disordered you?
Of what were you speaking? What Is
it that you say about diamonds?"
She threw out her hands toward the
empty cases on the table, his eyes fol
lowing the movement. For a moment
he was silent and transfixed, and he re
mained silent with perplexity and won
derment. But. directly his quick wit
had taken In the truth, he looked at
her again, the tears sparkling suspend
ed on her cheeks. There U'ere tears In
his own eyes. He took her hand. "My
mother," ho snid. "I would not think
that under nny circumstances you could
have believed this of your son. Do you
not see how it is? Vletorlne took your
jewels. IMerre has disposed of them,
and with the price of them he goes Into
his enterprises. It is the meaning of
his wealth. And It is with the money
he receives for the Beaulleux diamonds
tluit he buys the Beauxlieux titles!"
"What Is It that 1 hear you say?"
cried the duchess, half startled out ot
the one terror by a new one. "The
Beauxlieux titles! What of the Beaux
lieux titles?"
"Why, nothing, except that I sold
them to Pierre last June, and it is the
matter of which I have been speaking.
Not yours, madame; not any title be
longing to you; you still retain your ad
dress of honor, you are still the Duchess
des Sarazines Heauxlieux, If you choose,
douairiere. But those which were my
own, have I any use for them? I, a
man without a fortune, and with other
views? In these days when thrones go
under and empires disappear in the
gulf, and man, man climbs out, my

mother, I count It shame to hold title",
not won by myself, but won by men
whoso very ashes no longer exist! 1
say to myself the titles, they are n
voice, 'u breath, they are non-existent
attributes. But with the money that
foolish IMerre is willing to pay me for
leaving him alone If he assumes them,
what can I not do for the people that
were given In trust to those ancestors
of mine who betrayed the trust? It
will buy land, houses, maintain the
prophets, the priests, of liberty. Per
haps who knows buy dynamite."
"Beiiuxlleux!"
"It will, at nny rate, mnke my mother
at ease all her days, I s;Ud. What
succor will It take to sufferers! And
if by means of It I can forward the
cause of their uplifting and their free
dom ah, were It only one man who
had held his head like a beast's to
the earth that I helped to hold It up in
the face of (loil, It Is better worth to
me than all the titles of all my fore
fathers. And so 1 sold them to him;
sold them every one. I, I. mils Dago
bert Clovls Francois Maria Angelhiue,
no longer Duke des Sarazlnes Beaux
lieux, Prince Do Fr.incho Haupie,
Count des Aiguilles, Conte de flrnnd"fl
Iiiuides, Baron Bolssy, and nil the ab
surd rest of them, my mother!"
"And for what remains," he said,
after a pause, "If it is honor to be
Beauxlieux, the pale of no title can
take that honor away. I am always
and forever Beauxlieux." with an In
expressible pride of bearing.
"But it is Impossible!" cried his
mother. "I forbid It!"
"It Is done," said Beauxlieux.
"But, you do not confer titles It Is
the king, the council, the ministers, the
government"
"The-gvernment confers no more.
You forget that, whether one lives up
to It or not, the motto .now Is liberty,
fraternity, equality."
. "You nppall me! And, besides, he
will not be allowed to wear them, the
laiche!"
"Who Is to Interfere? I shall not.
Nor am I ever to marry. No!" ns he
suw the protest In her face. "Bring
others into the -world to sorrow, to
struggle, to endure? No, no, there will
never be anyone to disturb him. Ho
appears in the world of Paris s the
duke des Maraalnos Beauxlieux, and no
on will ever be the wiser."
"But my son. Heaven forgive me do
you then assist at a fraud, a felony?'
"Hardly," said Beauxlieux, "the
thing Is too uivsubstantlal. What do
the titles mean now In a republic?
Nothing. He gives me a certain pny
ment for leaving him to play his part
In peace. My prldo might rebel but
the money Is so' needed by those oth
ers," said .BoaulUMix, "I find the play
sufficiently entertaining."
And then suddenly the duchesse
threw back hec head and opened her
mouth with such a peal rif laughter as
In many years before had not rung
through that old pile.
"Vletorlne!' she cried. "Vletorlne
the Duchesse des Sai azln.-s Beauxlieux!
Vletorlne! Oh, 1 see her now! Sirg-lu-tir
Dieit, but it Is too amusing! Vle
torlne!" And ull her white teeth
I i... v. ii ars 1"1U 1 out of her
ey;s, tears of merriment, tears of Joy.
"Hut not It !.!," she said, "if Vle
torlne Is a thief, .If the Duohesse des
Sarazines Biauxlieux Is a thief, she
must be brought to justice!"
"No," said Beauxlieux. "We, who are
Beauxlieux, ramnot afford to have the
name dragged In tha dust. All the
diamonds in the world would not be
worth It. And I have contracted with
Pierre I mean t!ie duke to that ef
fect. If he in any way discredits the
titles, I appear. Is It that you can for
give me now, my mother?"
"Oh, Beauxlieux," she raid, rising
and putting her hands on his shoul
ders, "there Is no question of forgive
ness. You could never forgive me, If
there were. I could nver forgive my
self for my stupidity, my Ignorance,
my blindness, my crime! It Is M.
Ktienne, Heaven bless him, who never
doubted you. If he has Bomet'hling to
hear, my son," lie-he has also some
thing to toll you. Ol), Beauxlieux, I
am so hn.ppy, I feel as 'though I had
wings!" And as she spoke, a level sun-,
beam bloke from tlie low western
clouds and fell across the room nnd
they vv gray sky and sullen sea
transformed and glorilied In a mist of
gold.
Sometimes now in the summer
months, the old chateau is gay with
people; the family have come back.
Boaulioux and Jean are there for a
time. Hut for the greater part of the
year the only sound within Its walls
(save the quiet fimtfall of Olympe, who
Ignores the existence of her niece, and
feels that ruin Is abroad, and of the
few iservants there) Is the echo of the
rolling surf and the crying of the storm
on the gray Atlantic. Mine. Ktlenne,
who cannot afford to wear the 'title
worn by Vletorlne, lives with her hus
band In Paris, a Paris that has no
knowledge of her In her former es
tate, and with whose men of wit and
science and poetry she forgets old titles
and old glories. Sometimes fhe hears
of Vletorlne Haunting In the finery she
loves Ftill as when she risked all In the
fori st by stringing herself with the
stolen jewels that Pierre might pee how
well tli el r glory became her Pierre,
who, taking advantage of the stepping
stone of those diamonds, has gone on
adding wealth to wealth. Mme. Ktl
enne trembles only lest some misdeed
of his shall throw a stain on the name
that has lived a thousand years, un
blemished. Sometimes Indestructible
reoolli-ctlons give her a pang. But when
her son comiletely effaced though he
may be from the eyes of the great world
as he goes and comes en the danger
ous errands to which he has devoted
himself returns to her for a breathing
space, when she feels the velvet em
braces of the little bourgeolse girl who
lias been born to her, and turning hot
head looks Into the eyes of the man who
has been her protector, loving her in
silence for so many years, she feels the
old Basque peasant woman assert her
claim, feels herself espousing the cause
of the people down .there in the dark,
in her different (slate, and knows that
she is unspeakably ihappier that the
childless and lon -ly masquerader in the
splendor of the Hotel des Sarazines
Beauxlieux.
