It was OMPof tint loveliest, least known I
and most Keclnilcd retreat in Europe. I
The ray and rtnnotts housr.4 were over I

with tender rims of p-uss. Tin' warm

Tlie Hpanto inhuliitants were a far de
scended race of fishermen, mill lieurinsr
in their dark complcxionx and vigorous
forms the traces of their handsome Span- ;
tub. ancestry.
At the inn, in addition to a most en
gaging landlady and a couple of ex
tremely pretty daughters, Uellinghaiu
encountered to bis a;rceahle surprise an
American artist. Ilclwise by name,
whom hi hail known years ago in New
York. This lonely man of genius wis,
it appeared, in the habit of spending the
winter months here, transferring to can
vas the matchless wealth of color and
character which met him nt every turn.
Ue was of a grave, kindly, meditative
nature, but brimming over in certain
moods with wit and philosophy and the
fruitsof years of penetrating and amused
observation of human character and
life. Bellinghatn and be suited each
other well and were soon conversing
with the frankness and cordiality of a
tricmlship long in alicyance but never
forgotten. Be llingbam inquired whether '
there were any other countrymen of .
theirs in the town. J
"It is like the region Irving tells of in
Tbe Adalantado o the 8eve Cities,' "
Helvise replied: "it has liecn lost for I
ago, and nobody knows were it is ex
cept myself. That is, such was the case
until about three weeks ago. But bust j
inunlh two mysterious strangers made '
their npiiearancn, and liavo lx-trayed
some symptoms of ititoiiilinr to stay. I
should have had them expelled, for i
consider this place to lie my peculiar
and inalienable property, had 1 nut
found them entertaining us. a study, and
admirably lifip.scd to keci themselves
to the-msclves. I have never spoken to
the lady at all."
"Ob! Husband and wife, are they':"
"Apparently that is jtwt what they !
4tra not. No, I .don't mean to insinuate (
and I don't believe that .they ought to i
be. I should snpposo thy might bo
brother and sister, only they nro of tlif- j
furont nationalities. The man is evi- !
dnntly an Amorican. nnd the lady, '
though she speaks English perfectly I
well, evidently is not. She is probably I
four or five years older than be, and has ;
a certain nir of exiierienco. She is de-
ciiledly handsome, and has what they .
call distinguished manner: tliat is, sho i
makes you pemeive that (hey are man- ;
ners, though very good oiiea. Biio hns i
rented that large honsa on tho top of the '
hill" !
"She or they-" 1
"She. He hasliin room here, and turns !
up every night nt 10 o'clock. Theyspend '
the lay togothnr; be is undoubtedly j
in love with her, und she 4?riiu to be ;
anything but indifferent to him. You :
ee it isn't an ordinary affair. Hero j
they are, buried from the world beyond
discovery, and they might live as they
liked; and yet they or sho al any rate I
prefer to conduct themselves in this
anomalous fashion. There is some rays- j
tery in It, my dear (Jooffrey some deep,
dark, inscrutable mystery! They are
known respectively as Mr. Edwardes
and Mrs. Peters, but I baveaa idea they
call each other something else. One
theory of mine about them was that she
was a younger sister of his mother; his
father, you know, might have married
a foreign woman. In that ease she
would be bis aunt and the mystery
would be solved; but, aa I said before,
they are plainly in love, and nephews
and annta neither fall in love nor marry,
o far as my experience goos. Coma,
you are fresh from the (states: can you
guess?"
"I guess not," said Bolliughaui; and
the conversation took another turn.
Suddenly Helwise, who had beon look
ing toward tho southern upproocu to tho
terrace on which they were standing,
said in a low voice: There come the
mysteries. Now you can judge for yourself."
""ttiCisi'
Bellinghatn turned his eyes in the di
rection indicated nn saw a man ami
woman itppmucliingslowly, f ide by side.
They seemed to be conversing intermit
tently, nnd ns they walked her shoulder
occasionally brushed his arm and t'v'ir
glancesconstanlly met. The timnsci moil
to lw under S3 years nf age: he w tall
ami active ami of rather slender build,
and as he approached Bellinglmnr not iced
that his features were of a bold and
striking cast, with bright and somewhat
intolerant eyes. His expression at tho
present moment was troubled and
gloomy, lie freiUeully looked on the
ground ami struck the pebbles from bis
path villi a stick, lie would sp;'k a
few teiitcnces at a time, energetically
ami rapidly; then relapse into a moody
silence, responding by a shake of the
bead or uth'T brief gesture to the dis
course of his companion.
The latter was a woman wlnr-e aspect
(if the distinction be permissible) was
younger than her looks. Her lace ami
figure were youthful, but her bearing
and gestures were mature. Her features
were of a clear paleness, regular in out
line ami of remarkable beauty. Some
thing in her aspect enchained Bclling
ham's regard: she did not resemble any
woman lie had seen, and yet sho remind
ed hint in some intangible, elusive way
of a woman whom bo wished to forget,
bho was different different nt every
point; and yet if he turned away and
glanced at her from the corner of his
eye there was nn indescribable likeness.
Was it tho way sho had of slowly lifting
her chin? Was it tho slope of her shoul
ders? Was it in tho way the soft hair
grew on the nape of her white neck?

Tlie bridge was unfinished, and ite was
obliged to mnko .the transit on a series
of precarious pbuiks irregularly duposeU.
When midway aexoas the Atlantic. whose

Marana. Ue hastened to overtake her,
for die seemed in imminent danger of
falling.
Just as he was on the point of reach
ing her, however, the plank on which be
stood gave way, and at the same mo
ment she whom he had meant to save
tottered and fell. He closed bis eyes for
an instant; then be felt his arm seized
by some one from behind, and, looking
round, be found himself standing on the
stage of the opera bouse, with Murium
herself before him in the costume of
Marguerite, with a bunch of daisies in
her girdle. He beard the applause of
the audience, like tho roar of tho sea,
and perceived that the performance was
going forward, and thut he, instead of be
ing properly uttircd, was in bis every day
dress. It cuius across his mind also that
the figure bn bad mistaken for Marana

lead him. He looked at Marguerite; her
face was deathly pale. She said bclcv

sat smoking nt bis window watching
the dawn slowly illuminate tho eastern

Ie took an early breakfast ami went
for a solitary walk along the coast, ami
from the summit of a lofty headland
saw a great ocean steamer pass west

bound for New York. As be watched

of an urgent longing to return to return
at once. Tbe unfinished question in his
dream kept ringing in bin ears, It iisum-

know what it i:i ant. lie laughed at his

Ho found Helwise painting in the
room he used as a studio: ho was In his
shirt sleeves, slipis-rs down at the heel
were on Ins feet, nnd be wore nn old
strnw bat to shade bis eyej from the
light. He was whistling Softly to him
self, and would turn bis bead on one
side alter pulling a touch on the canvas.
'Bid you hear nnv noise last night?"
he asked alter they had chatted for n
while.
'I bad tt bad dre::in. What was it?"
'That young fellow who calls himself
Edwardes. Bis room is next to mine.
Ho came in u little later than usual last
night, nnd by and by I fancied I heard
him crvmg. I was debating whether I
ought to go in and see what was the
mutter, when he knocked at my door.
He looked badly cut up. 1 made him
sit down nnd gave him some whisky
and a cigarette. He seems to lm in a
scrape."

In love with this woman in Moscow.
From whnt be said I judge she is an act
ress or n singer, as we were saying yes
terday. She is a public clmrncier nf
some kind, and li:n bad adventures be
fore this. She took n great fancy to
him, so be says, ami 1 believe him. Hut
it seems to have Isen somewhat us you
suggested: she liked him too well to
let bun have his way. She wouldn t
risk n disillusionment: perhaps her
heart bad never been touched befo::-.
She would not marry him, either:
for that matter, 1 suppose the one
thing is about the same to her as
tho other. But she did an odd thing
she offered to i tispend her career, what
ever it Is, nnd be with him as long as
he wished. And she apiiears to havn
given up some important iiecuniary ad
vantage to do so. He accepted her offer.
tlnuking no doubt that sho would capit
ulate in duo time, in the meanwhile
taking euro that she should lose nothing
in tho way of money. Ho represented
himself to her ns inexhaustibly wealthy,
and sho took him at his word. But the
fact is, after he had spent u hundred
thousand or so, and ruined his father
and sister, us ho tells me, there was uo
more left. lie was ashamed to confess
this to her, and it is only within the last
few days, when bo had got down to his
last titty pound note, that she found it
out."
"And now she means to shako him is
thnt it?" said Belliugham.
"Well, apparently not. She seems to
have plenty of money herself, and she
has made him u proiKisition which does
ler credit. Sho has proponed to murry
him and pay buck the money that ho
has Kpent on her. I havu begun to fall
in love with her myself! And I may do
it if she'll have me; for Mr. Edwardes'
pride, as he culls it, would not allow
him to accept her proposal, and hcuco
bis niifcry, which at one time last
night assumed quite a suicidal complex
ion, but I remonstrated witli him, and ho
felt a little better this morning."
While tbey were sitting tluro tho
door was suddenly opened, and in cauio
young Mr. Edwardes himself in a state of
great excitement. Iio hud a newspaper
in his hand.
"Bid you know what was iu this pa
per?" demanded he, striding up to Ilcl
wise. "What one generully finds in a New

and looking np at bim. "This is Mr.

The latter looked ut the architect, and

eeed, but the emotion by which he was
possessed was too much for bim; he went
on. "It says here," he exclaimed, hold
ing tlw piqier toward Helwise, with his
tiuger on tbe paragraph, "that here,
lead it yourself!"
Helwise took the paper uud read:
"Mile, Martina, the great Russian prima

New Yorkers during the pust season by

aurivaled musical powers, will next
