I THE KING OF THE MILL.
J BY JOSEPH NEVIN DOYLE.
[COPYRIGHT, 1896.]
One summer evening, after supper,
( M. IRose, the village notary, came out
upon the veranda of the Hotel Castor,
his hat in his hand, his Bmootlily
| shaven face ruddy and pleasant to look
| upon. Brabon, the drummer, who came
I up from Montreal, to St. Pyx oeca
! sionally on business, sat smoking quiet
ly in a chair that was tilted against the
wall.
I "Good evening!" said M. La Rose.
"Good evening, monsieur lo notairel"
answered Brabon, indolently.
| Then there followed a little spell of si
; lcnce that was intensified by the clat
ter of distant oow bells.
Presently there appeared In the street
immediately before the hotel a sort of
living fatasy—a singular dark-faced
old man, who strode slowly past clad
in a loose robe of many bright coJors.
Ilis eyes had the unmistakable and rest
less look of the daft. Qn his head was a
crown of buttons; brass, silver, bone,
l>earl, presumably sewn together on
card board and making a headgear of re
markable brilliancy. Behind him
walked a gray-haired, gray-eyed woman
in ordinary garb. Ber look was clear
and steady; her demeanor in every way
sane. Yet though it was plain to see she
was a commonplace woman, there was
something august in her carriage, unac
countably so, perhaps, but as natural as
the studied pose of the other was con
strained and unnatural. Her eyes were
set fairly upon the fantastic figure be
fore; but, I declare, this is new!"
an evident interest beyond his ludicrous
pomp and preoccupation.
It was not surprising then to the no
tary that this nppnrition, emphasized in
the magic atmosphere of the summer
twilight, should have made Brabon to
cry out with astonishment.
"Allous! What is (his, monsieur? I
have been in Saint Pyx many times be
fore; but I declare, this Is new!"
"A very pathetic affair it is, Brabon,"
| said the notary, taking a chair and look
i ing at his watch, to be assured he had
j time to tell the tale before going for his
! customary evening chat with M. Lo Cure
in the presbytery rose garden.
"There is a tale?"
"Well, as you will: a history, nothing
absorbing but very human, very touch
ing. Old Cesaire Moisson, a man with a
large family, a thrifty, sober, God-fear
ing man once owned the mill by the
River of Angels—"
"Yea, I see it from here; the squat
white building near the cluster of wil
lows yonder."
"Exactly. Well. He was a man
with a considerable family, I said, did
T not? and when the epidemic of small
pox occurred in the village—that was
many years ngo, monsieur—poor Mois
son's family was attacked, and one
! after another his wife and children
I passed away, and lie himself, indeed,
| till there was only left this son Zeph
| rin. whom j'ou saw go by a moment
since—"
j "It left him so—the smallpox?"
j "No. He was not at home when the
: epidemic occurred; he was at college.
, Old Cesaire managed to put by enough
! silver to educate the lad—the brightesl
| of hi's brood—and M. Le Cure also con
tributed, for he had hopes that Zephrin
i would become a priest."
"Then, I presume, the shock of this
! great calamity unbalanced (he youiig i
man's mind."
"That may be pretty true, monsieur, j
I though for a long time after the affair
he was thought to l>e perfectly sound
mentally. Well, Zephrin was obliged to j
leave college ami take up the Business I
of the mill—a lOnelj task it must have
been for one who had but just tasted
Hie sweets of knowledge. Then, every j
dusty timber of the mill must have j
i seemed to him like a ghost of the liappv '
days when the place was brimming j
with laughter and good cheer.
"lie was not liked by the villagers on
account of his silent and arrogant man
ner; he was unlike any miller who
had ever been known. When the in
habitants came with their grists he
received them with the grand air of a
seigneur of the old days who, amid his
courtly entourage, received the fiefs of
his dependents. 'lt's like that always,'
j grumbled the crones; 'poor parent*
j (ill their children's minds with foolish ;
I notions of greatness! Poor old Cesaire '
himself —rest to his bones—was not '
like this peacock. Cesaire knew his
I place bon vicuxl A miller is a miller
! if his bend be crammed with Latin or
flour dust!'
i "Everyone pitied Zephrin, of course,
i on account of his great bereavement
i and the business of the mill suffered no
serious retrogression in consequence of
| his singular demeanor. This exclusive
ness, this hauteur, however, was taken
| lightly by the young folks of the village
and often of a summer's evening, like
this one for instance, they passed by the
mill crying up at Zephrin, who invaria
! bly pored over his books in the little
j dormer window: 'Behold the king of
the mill!' Then with gestures of mock
gravity: 'Think of his mighty empire
of rats!'
"Quite so," said Borbon, "tliey taunt
ed him into insanity with these gilies.
The crown! the robes! 1 see now how
they came!"
"Indirectly these taunts may have
affected his mind, monsieur. Ilis curi
ous attire und mien are obviously sug
gestive of the fact ; but it is my opinion
Ills sad derangement is only partly due
' to them.
"Night after night the little dormer
j window of the mill was light till dawn;
; yet the earliest comer did not fail to find
Zephrin uy and about. Noonecould un
derstand, for not another light save the
miller's might be found in all Saint Pyx,
j not even at the presbytery, after ten
o'clock. At length the tongues of the
gossips began to wag. It went abroad
that lie was closeted each night with the
1 Old Man- the evil one—debating upon
| the sale of his soul for riches and power
j to satisfy his sinful pride. Again, ot hers
said It was not Zephrin's light at all;
but only theglowiugof the ghosts of his
family who caine to entertain him. In
deed, taken all in all, the miller has be
come a fearsome individual and the
neighborhood of the mill a place to be
shunned after dark; unless one had no
fear in his heart- If by any unfortunate
concurrence of sorceries a person should
chance to meet a firefly while passing
the mill, no plunging of steel into wood
might save him from the evil spirits.
Even to bless himself and utter a pious
invocation, perhaps, might not avail!
"In the midst of Zephrin's ill-repute a
singular thing occurred. Hewasknown
to have fallen into conversation with a
customer. It was this way: Colette
Dion came often to the mill with the
grist of her mother— poor widow with
13 children, of whom Colette was the
eldest. One day when she came down
along the dandelion-dotted pathway
leading to the mill, with her mother's
grist in a bag upon her head, Zephrin
watched her with much interest. If
common report may be believed she was
certainly, in those days, a picture not to
be blinked casually. She had the figure
of a nymph and a face, for all It was
commonplace at points, something un
usually fine for a villager. Hut the step,
the carriage; it remains to this day, as
we have seem, monsieur, dignified, dis- '
tinguished, majesticl At .first glance, it
is said, there was some remarkable re
semblance between Colette and Zephrin
—and who can tell? it may have been
some vague, suggestion of congeniality
—some thin ray as from one distant
planet to another which inspired the ,
miller's interest.
"When, at length, she arfived at the
doer of the mill and deposited her bur
den beside it, said he:
"You have a meaning step p'tite and
a pietty oue."
•' 'True?' questioned Colette, with
something finely scornful on her elo
quent lips. She was piqued, let us be
lieve, since he had not noticed her pretty
fac-j; for, though a woman may be con
scious of her subtlest grace and clrarm,
homage to the fcutures is the thing—the
real joy. Isn't it so, Barbon? 'Well,'
said the miller, 'I doubt not there is
more in your mind than the mere grind
ing of yonder grist, eh?'
"'lt is my mind now,' said she. 'lt
was my step lately!'
" 'lt is the mind which rcgulutes the
step p'tite. J always watch the step
when 1 would know the mind," he re
sponded.
" 'Now, there is much in these frag
ments which reveals the clearness of
Zephrin's mind at that period and also
the real character of the man and the
bent of his spirit. You see, it was the
gesture, the carriage, the aspect that in
terested him most. Why? We shall
see. Thong.i Colette, it may be pre- 1
BECAUSE A COMMON MILLER OOULD NEVER WIN MY HEART.
sumed, did not realize the true sig
nificance of his words, she remembered
them—everyone—and repeated them to
her mother, who in turn told everything
to the cure, Langolois, from who I have
this story. The girl confessed also to
her mother that she was much surprised
regarding the ill-reputed iniller. *M.
Moisson —Zephrin,' she declared was not
at all a weird man, but, on the contrary,
very sensible und good-nutured. Yet
her mother warned her she must, be
wary; such fine qualities oftentimes
screened the worst souls. Colette, how
ever, maintained stolidly not a word of
the village gossip was true. 'lndeed,"
said she, 'they say also as naught things
of me, because they think 1 am proud.
And you know, mamma, 1 am not proud
nor wicked.' So every time Colette
fetched the. grist from the mill, she re
turned radiant and full oi praise of the
miller. At length one day said he to
her, so she retorted:
" 'Colette, T am going to ask you some
thing.'
" 'lf it is one thing 1 know what my
answer will be,' she responds with much
piquancy.
" 'Well, if I should ask you to marry
me ?'
"'Then I should answer, "no!" '
"'Why?' says the miller, his heart
sinking to his boots, no doubt; but ris
ing again very quickly when he catches
the twinkle of mischief in her eyes.
" 'Because a common miller could
,never win my heart,* says she, coquet
tishlv, yet with something truly dra
matic in her pose. 'That is only for a
great man.'
" 'A seigneur?' ventured the miller.
" 'Higher.'
"'A governor?'
14 'Nay, higher.* ( J
•* 'A prince?*
'* 'Even higher.*
" *A king?'
" 'Yes, a king.' Then, nfter a pretty
pause: 'And that is thou, my dear king
of the mill.'"
"Now lie draws her hands across the
door of the mill and kisses her fuir head
that is fallen against his breast—and
that is all. us suppose they simply
looked out in a day-dream across the
little Hiver of Angels, to the pleasant
daisied meadows and green fields about
here.
"Well," says Zephrin to her , very
gravely and with a new, strange look
in his eyes—a look that frightens her
not a little.
"They call me in contempt, "The King
of the Mill,' but they shall bow before
me yet as their king. And indeed I
shall wear the rolies of a king and speak
the noble words of a king, which 1 am
getting by rote each night where they
see my lamp burning in the dormer
window. Ilein! They shall sit like rats,
the rats whose emperor they say 1 am
now, while 1 hold them in my spell with
the brave lines of Moliere! Of Cornel lie I
Of Racine!
"The good Saint Ann protect us! Who
are they all?" cries Colette, now much
perturbed. Rut the miller continues
without noticing the interruption.
"'And I shall eome to you then with
my triumphs; in my fine royal robes of
purple and gold and ermine; with my
glorious jeweled crown. And I shall
kiss your hand in homage to your
beauty and lay these laurels, these tri
umphs at your feet, my queen! m.v
Colette!*
"Just then appears a farmer with his
grist and the happy, frightened girl flits
away like a startled bird.
"Ron dieu!" said Hradon. "I see—
The stage was his vagary!"
"Yes!" said the notary, bowing his
head as before some great mystery. "At
the college entertainments, while strut
ting through the plays of these great
masters in the little hall, with its small
stag© and crude scenery; before the
common village audiences, he first heard
the siren voice of art. And it is ns a
siren's voice, to some you know, Rrabon
Ehbienl What is the difference? He is
playing a role now—how tragic a role—"
"Rut about Colette?" interrupted Bra
bon, with some impatience. The gentle
sentimentality of the notary escaped, to
un extent, the bluff, pract'ool drummer.
"Ah, there is the role!—the role of
beauty and distinction! Think of it!
All along she has believed in him vague
ly. From the day lie had frightened her
with his strange talk, seemingly so ir
relevant to her happiness, tlie poor,
small mind was filled with visions of
mysterious greatness and joys to lie in
the future—much as are our vi* ions OJ
the Wfe to come. He asked her to wait.
She must never be the wife of a common
miller, but of a great man, a man v horn
the whole world applauded. And so
she waited; trusting, loving, believing
in him infinitely; and even when her
reason is fallen into decay—see the de
votion! Kach day, all these years, she
goes to the mill and tends upon him,
performing the household duties, con
ducting the business of the mill, de
tailing the work and instructing the
men hired to do the milling. Thus
has she cured for him as no one would
cure for a child and, in nil, save the
matter of this vagary, he is obedient
to her slightest whim,"
Brabon touched the notary's arm.
"See! They come again!"
Once more thebizare figure strode past,
followed by the woman. They had
walked to the church where Colette
was making a noveua for Zephrin's re
covery.
To look upon the notary one would
suppose an angel passed, but there was
on the face of the drummer only a look
of |>erplcxed incredulity.
When they were gone a little way,
the notary arose, looked at his watch
and made as to se# forth. Brabon de
tained him.
"One word, monsieur. They are mar
ried now?"
"Oh, no! That could not bo," ho
answered, with something like a sigh.
"They are still courting and looking
forward to a day of greatness and mak
ing ready for the wedding. Mon Dieu
Brabon! That is love, eh?"

ANIMAL WAIFS.
A horse died at North Andover, Mae*.,
the other day, in whose stomach was
found over a pound of nails.
Rarnum's trick horses are fairly heart
en by a team of old work horses in
Wesley, Me., that the driver left stand
ing in the field for a moment, hitched
to a mower. In his absence they cut
two neat swaths completely around
the field, without missing a spear of
grass, turning the corners accurately.
All efforts to trace the eapercalzie and
black game imported in Aroostook, Me.,
from old Sweden last spring have proved
fruitless. Now and then comes a rumor
that they have been seen or heard. They
have doubtless retreated to the deep
Canadian pine forests, and the bene
fits of their importation will be reaped
in future years.
Few hunters have returned from the
woods with more satisfaction than that
felt by Miss Jennie Eliot, of Sooth Se
bee. Met, who recently saw two deer
grazing in her father's mowing field,
and succeeded in getting an excellent
photographic snap shot at them. In
the picture one of the deer is in the
attitude of leaping, all four of its legs
being off the ground.
A sword fish strayed away from home
and friends a few days ago and lost his
life while exploring the old basin in
side of the old breakwater at Block
Island, R. I. When his presence became
known half a dozen men, one with a
harpoon, went on the breakwater, and.
when the fish was near the instrument
was thrown, with the desired result.
It is said that this is the first fish of
the kind ever known to have been seen
in the basin.

Troine left a lot of manuscript poetry,
now in the possession of M. de Ileredia,
of the French academy, who, in justice
to the historian, will allow no one to
read it.
The prize of SIOO for the best poem to

Ilenri Roohefort's autobiography has |
just been completed in five volumes in j
French. The author is now at work on i
the two-volume English edition, special
ly edited by him and translated for
Anglo-Saxon readers.
The account'by Dr. Donaldson Smith,

STYLES IN HATS AND GOWNS.
A new waist has the yoke made of
narrow, close puffing. The lower por
tion of the waist has the effect of the
material being wound around the waist,
the end being fastened with rosette
l>ows on one side of the front.
The sailor hat seems never to go out
of style. It has been remarked, how
ever, that many sailor hats are used foi
bicycle and yachting purposes. Sailor
lints are also profusely trimmed with
ribbons and flowers and worn on
dressy occasions.
Poke bonnets are assuredly coming
into fashion and some of the autumn
styles are extravagantly pretty. They
are made of rough straw in dark colors,
and are trimmed with satin ribbon and
plumes after the manner of those seen
in old pictures.
A novelty collar is of satin in two
colors. The outside is dark and elabor
ately braided; the inside is of some
light, becoming tint. A very full rufile
is box-plaited and stands up about the
throat, the inside being of satin, the
outside covered with braiding.
A stylish waist has the collar and very
short jacket fronts made of close braid
ing. These fronts extend only to the
sleeves and under-arm seams. The
sleeves are close fitting, with row upon
row of braiding. Over the close sleeved
are deep loops of the material, which is
gathered in at the tops of the shoulders.
SCIENTIFIC GLEANINGS.
Argon has at last been combined
with water by Prof. Villard, of the
Paris Ecole Normale. It requires a
pressure of 200 atmospheres to do 60.
A method of nickeling wood ha-\
been devised by the German chemist
Lnngbein, the wood being covered by
a thin coating of metal by either dry or
wet process.
Prof.Norton, of the Massachusetts In
stitute of Technology, has succeeded in
getting Roentgen photographs of the
liver, heart and lungs sufficiently plain
to admit of medical examination.
A French chemist has made a blue
soap which will render unnecessary the
bluing in the laundry. In ordinary
soap he incorporates a solution of anilin
green in strong acetic acid. The alkali
of the soap converts the green Into
blue.
