A Change
Of Garments
By JOWN G. LARNED
One morning Lita Giuccioli, an Ital-
by with many Kisses. She was going
to Rome to visit an aunt. The com-
partment she entered was occupied by
one person only—a man. He was small
and clean shaven, and the train had
nd® gone far into the country when he
began to notice Lita, as if taking note
of her height and weight. Presently
he said:
“Signorina, will you please take off
your hat and give it to me?”
Lita looked at him as if she did not
comprehend his meaning. The man
jerked her hat off her head and put
his own on hers. By this time she
was thoroughly frightened and made
no resistance. The man forced her to
exchange her outer garments with
him, and when this was done he pull-
ed a veil down over his face. f
“When we make a stop,” he said, “I
will get out—that is, unless I see dan-
ger. If you betray me I will kill you.
I am a bandit. I have been making a
rich haul in Naples. The police got
on to my being there, and I am sur-
prised that they have permitted me
to get out of the city. Indeed, I sus-
pect some game On their part, and 1
should. not wonder if they were on the
lookout for me.”
Lita was thoroughly cowed. Indeed,
it was all she could do to keep from
fainting. But she kept up till the train
reached the first stop, hoping then to
be relieved of him. When the train
pulled up at the station the man look-
ed out, but drew back immediately,
and Lita saw that she would not be
rid of him. The conductor came to the
door of the compartment and put a
woman into it. Lita noticed that she
tipped him for finding her a seat. The
newcomer was a comfort to the poor
girl, though she wished she had been
a man. She noticed, however, that
the woman was big and strong, while
the bandit was small, though wiry.
The train had scarcely pulled out of
the station when the new passenger

began to look serutinizingly at Lita.
As for the man, he leaned back in a
corner with the veil over his face, and
no one would have had reason to sus-
pect that he was not a woman.
“Where are you going, signor?"’ ask-
ed the woman of Lita in a coarse
voice.
“To Rome, signora.”
The woman looked intently at the
girl, evidently being somewhat mys-
tified at her appearance and especially
at her voice, which was thoroughly
feminine.
“When the train left Naples,” con-
tinued the woman, ‘‘was there not a.
man in this compartment?”
Lita, whose eye was fixed on the
bandit, saw his fingers twitching. She
interpreted it to mean that she must
reply in the negative.
“There was no one, signora, except
we who are now here.”
There was a pocket in the woman's
dress, and Lita noticed that she kept
her right hand in this pocket. When
she asked the question she looked at
the figure leaning back in the corner,
sgparently asleep.
“@tgnora,” called the new passenger,
“eam you tell me the hour this train
reaches Bora?’
The only reply was a snore.
Lita would have warned the woman
that the person she addressed was &
man and a bandit and heggod Dor to
let him alone, fearing that he would
murder them both, but she dared not
do so. The woman meds 29 farther
attempt to extract information from
the sleeper; instead she began to look
Lita over, her attention being riveted
on the girl’s figure that looked differ-
ent from a man’s.
“You're not a man,” she said; “you're
a woman.”
Lita made no reply. The man in the
corner snored on. The woman turned
her attention to the sleeper.
“Signoral”
The man stirred, then asked what
«At what hour does this train reach
Rome?”
“I do not know.”
«what's the matter with your voice?
Have you got a cold?”
«pardon me. I am sleepy. I have
been up very late every night for a
week.”
«Was there a man in this compart-
ment when the train left Naples?”
«Yes; the young gentleman opposite
you.”
«She's not a man; she’s a woman.”
