APRIL IN IRELAND.
Bbe hath a woven garland all of the sighing
sedge,
and all her Cowers are snowdrops grown on
the winter's edge.
The golden looms of Tir na n'Og wove all the
winter through
Her gown of mist and raindrops shot with a
cloudy blue.
Sunlight she holds in one hand, and rain she
scatters after.
And through the rainy twilight we hear her
fitful laughter.
Bhe shakes down on her flowers the snow less
white than they.
Then quickens with her kisses the folded knots
o' May.
Bhe seeks the summer lover that never shall be
hers.
Fain for gold leaves of autumn she passes by
the furze,
though buried gold it hideth; she scorns her
sedgy crown,
and pressing blindly sunward she treads her
snowdrops down.
Her gifts are all a fardel of wayward smiles
and tears.
Vet hope she also holdeth, this daughter of the
years
A. hope that blossoms faintly set upon sorrow's
edge.
She hath a woven garland all of the sighing
ecdge.

A NIGHT THIEF.
There was a large party at the Cha
teau de Kerdall, near Valines. The Mar
quis do Kerdall and his young wife had
just returned from a tonr of the -world
on their yacht, during which they had
paid flying visits to Africa, America
and Oceanica, and they had celebrated
their hume coming by gathering, together
all their friends and relatives at their
beautiful country bouse.
. . Among the guests was old Dr. Cor
nabuc, an illustrious member of the
Academy of Metaphysical Sciences, so
original, so absentminded, so venerable
in his blond peruke and biS costume of
the fashion of 1850. Then there was
Mme de Lartigues, an old school friend
of the marquise, a brilliant and coquet
tish Farisienne. And there was Miss
Hawthorne, an English maiden lady
with youthful propensities. And there
were many others, all of whom found
plenty of amusement to their hearts'
content at Kerdall.
Outside of the ordinary pleasures cf
life there were some unusual attrac
tions. In the first place the host and
hostess bad seen and experienced so
much that was novel and startling
that their conversation was always fas
cinating. Then the rooms of the castle
constituted a veritable museum, being
stocked with rare and curious objects
from two continents. And finally a
managerie had been created in one cor
- ner of the park and -stocked with the
various animals which M. de Kerdall
had picked up during - the voyage and
brought back to France: for purposes of
acclimatization. TherS were gazelles,
antelopes, Tibet goats, Nile ibises, rose
flamingoes, opossums, beavers and an
Asiatic ape of the mandrill species, as
mild as a lamb, but as' mischievous as
all his kind. An iron lattice cage had
been built for him close to the conser
vatory. ?
As will be seen, the Chateau de KeJ
dall was a veritable Eden, but this fact
did not prevent little Mme. de Lartigues
from dreading the isolated position of
the place among the wide expanse of
woods and fields.
"I should be afraid, to live here all
the year round, " she said.
"Afraid of what, my dear?" asked
the marquise,
"Oh, of robbers. They would fairly
revel here."
' Robbers! In this mansion filled tc
the eaves with guests and servants!
Everybody mocked at the young wom
an, and old Dr. Cornabuo told horrible
stories about burglars and assassins un
til Mme. de Lartigues, ashamed of her
chimerical fears, was the first to laugh,
and when the retiring hour came she
mounted to her sleeping apartment oc
the second floor supplied with a goodly
stock of heroism. Within a short time
all the occupants of the ohauteau were
in the land of dreams.
How long Mme. de Lartigues slept
she knew not. She was awakened by a
rattling at her window, which she had
left half open on account of the heat.
What was her terror when in the
feeble starlight she saw a form climbing
noiselessly through the window. She
tried to scream, but her throat was
parched with fright, and she could not
utter a sound.
The man had entered the chamber.
Then the poor woman hastily buried her
head beneath the bedclothing. Half
dead with fear, she could hear her noc
turnal visitor going and coming across
the carpet with muffled steps. It seemed
as though be must have' removed his
shoes in order to tread softly. Bathed
with cold perspiration and her teeth
chattering she awaited the mortal blow
from the invader. But it did not come.
After about a quarter of an hour she
timidly peeped out. She could see and
hear nothing. Slightly reassured, she
recovered the use of her voice and start
ed a series of shrieks, so sharp, piercing
and terrible that in an instant the entire
chateau was turned topsy turvy. Every
body rushed into ber chamber with
lights in their hands, M. and Mme. de
Kerdall at the bead.
"What is it? What's-the matter?"
they cried.
She recounted her horrible vision.
They would not believe her. - She had
been dreaming. Who could have climb
ed into this chamber, so high above the
ground, without a ladder?
"Did you see him plainly?" asked
the marquis, with a touch of suspicion
in his voice.
"As plainly as I see you, and it even
seemed" She hesitated.
"What?"
"It seemed as though I could recog
nize Dr. Corabuc in his blond wig and
redingote."
Everybody laughed. What! Dr. Cor
nabucl A man of his age and character
scaling windows at midnight! It was
certain now that Mme. de Lartigues had
been dreaming. They tried to dissipate
made herself that she had been the vio
tim of an hallucination when she hap-'
pened to cast her eyes upon the bureau,
where she had left her jewels. ..
They were gone! It had truly been a
robber!
The laughing suddenly ceased, and
they looked at one another in consterna
tion. All at once another cry was heard, a
piercing shriek coming through the still
ness of the night. It appeared to ema
nate from Miss Hawthorne's chamber.
There was a rush for her apartment,
and the English lady was found stand
ing in the middle of the room, with
frightened eyes.
"There, there!" she cried, pointing
to the window. "A man! He escaped,
but I recognized him. "
"Who was it?"
"Dr. Cornabuc!"
The doctor again ! This time nobody
laughed. Cornabuc was looked for
among the persons who had been - at
tracted by the excitement, but be was
not there. He was the only occupant of
the chateau who was missing.
"Come, let us go to the doctor's
room," said the marquis, knitting his
brows. "He will doubtless solve the
mystery for us."
All followed Kerdall, the men half
dressed, the women in their white night
robes, all carrying candles a weird
procession. Upon - the entrance of the
crowd, the doctor hurriedly wrapped '
himself in the bedclothes, bis wrinkled
countenance alone being visible over
the top, and this convulsed by anger in
to a comical grimace. The candle light
was reflected from bis bald pate, which
shone like old ivory.
"Is this some ill timed joke?" he
6tormed. "What is going on? Is the
chateau on fire? I heard a terrible out
cry and was about to inquire into it "
"You must come and join us, doc
tor," said Kerdall.
"And how shall I do it?" cried the
doctor furiously. "Some rascal has run
off with my clothing, and in exchange
has left me this," and he savagely hurl
ed a white object into the middle of the
room.
"My corsets!" murmured Miss Haw
thorne, modestly lowering ber eyes.
"Antl this!" continued the doctor,
wildly brandishing another article.
"My hat!" cried Mma de Lartigues.
"This railery passes all bounds,"
howled the doctor, whose shining head,
with one final grimace, ducked beneath
the bedclothing, like the clown going
through a trapdoor in the marionette
theater.
They knew not what to think. The
mystery was growing more complicated.
It certainly looked as though a robber
had entered the chateau perhaps , a
whole band of burglars and assassins.
Mme. de Lartigues imagined a troop of
brigands armed to the teeth". '
"Let us hope they have no guns, "
said the-marquis, to raise the hopes of
his guests. .
There was no echo to the pleasantry.
Suddenly a strange sound was heard
coming from the ground floor. It was
certainly the piano in the reception
salon, but it was surely being played by
goblin fingers, and so furiously that it
seemed as though the keys must be bro
ken. .-.-. . ...
"This is. too much!" cried the mar
quis, rushing toward the staircase, With
all the crowd,-except Dr. Cornabuc,
close behind him.
They hastily penetrated the salon. It
was empty. The mysterious visitor was
gone, but be could not be far away. The
crash of china and glass announced his
presence in the dining room. Everybody
rushed thither, and the marquis, Who
was in the load, dimly saw a form es
caping through the window into the
garden.
"This time we've got him !" he cried.
The men seized guns and knives from
a hunting rack in the vestibule and start
ed across the garden and park in pur
suit of the fugitive, while the women
barricaded themselves in the salon and
anxiously awaited the result of the
chase. It was about an hour later, in
the uncertain light which precedes the
rising of the sun, that a servant discov
ered the mysterious stranger ensconced
among the branches of a large oak. . At
his call the marquis and his guests has
tened to the spot
"Come down!" commanded M. de
Kerdall, but the bandit only settled
himself deeper among the foliage and
made no responsa
"Come down, or I will shoot!"
-And, as there was still no reply, he
lifted his gun and already had his fin
ger upon the trigger when the domestic
huriedly pulled his arm and said:
"Do not fire, monsieur. It is Dr. Cor
nabuc!" And, sure enough, the blond wig and
long redingote could now be seen among
the leaves. But at this moment the first
ray of sunlight gleamed in from the
east, and the oak was illuminated. The
marquis suddenly broke into a fit of ex
plosive laughter and, as bis guests gazed
tp into the tree they could not keep
from following his exampla
"The ape!"
Everything was explained. The ani
mal had escaped from his cage the pre
vious evening and had managed to ef
fect an entrance into the chateau. Ani
mated by his instinct of imitation, he
had first attired himself in the doctor's
effects and then wandered over the
house at his own free wilt He was put
back into his prison after some little
trouble, and at breakfast the party en
joyed a hearty laugh at the adventures
of the night
But Dr. Cornabuc did not appear at
the tabla He left the chateau at an
early hour, furious and without taking
leava Since this episode he has never
set foot at Kerdall, and he has never
lost a feeling of deep antipathy to Mine,
de Lartigues and Miss Hawthorne.

Then, when all seemed well, Solange
himself was smitten. He struggled m;m
fully against the fatal grasp of the fever,
but in vain.
When he realized that his time had in
deed come, the anxiety caused by the
thousrht of the peril to which his recent
mission was thereby exposed had the
effect of worsening his disorder. His
mind was in no less pain than his body;
he had set bis whole soul upon fulfilling
the emperor's command, -and he-could
look upon bis illness in no other light
than as a crime on his own part. He
had undertaken a duty as important a
one as had ever been intrusted to a sol
dier and he was about to fail in it. The
emperor, never hearing from him, would
suppose that "he had been unfaithful and
had yielded to a base temptation. It was
more than probable that the whole fut
ure of France might be compromised by
bis failure. He writhed in helpless ago
ny at the reflection. And every hour
every minute he grew worse, and knew
that fate would be too much for him.
Dupont meanwhile faithfully tended
bim; the lank, red haired adventurer dis
played all the tact and cleverness of a
woman. He always spoke cheerfully to
the sick man, and his genius for telling
amusing stories seemed to grow with the
demands upon it. Nevertheless, Dupont
knew that the chances of his friend's re
covery were infinitesimal, and he. per
ceived that he had something on his
mind. Dupont had previously made up
his mind that he would find out what
Solange's mystery was, and he awaited
developments.
One evening, after a long silence, So
lange spoke:
"How far are we from Panama, Fran
cois?" "Still two days at least, if the wind is
fair, mon bravs."
"Sacre! I shall never last it out!"
"Never lose heart! You will be all
right in a day or two,"
. "I shall be at the bottom of the ocean.
Ah, I know it! I have tried my best,
but it is no use. The emperor will curse
me for a scoundrel !"
"The emperor!" repeated Dupont, look
ing up.
"Did I say the emperor! Bah! my
mind wanders."
"Listen to me, Maurice," said Dupont,
bending over. "Your mind is not wan
dering, but there is a weight upon it. I
have seen it all along, . it has retarded
your recovery. Come! I am your friend,
am I not? If I were as you are I would
confide in you. I don't know what wor
ries you; but, if I did, I might be able to
help you. And'if I can you don't doubt
that 1 will eh? Come, free your soul,
my lad, and your body will be all the
better for it."
"If I were sure that I must die" mut
tered Solange, hesitating.
"You are a sick man; but I have told
you the only chance for recovery," said
Dupont, shrugging his shoulders. "One
believes in Providence, I suppose? Well,
is it not Providence that has sent your
best friend to j our side at such a mo
ment?" The dying man fixed bis eyes upon the
speaker. "Francois," he said, "if I tell
you this secret will you swear to be
faithful to the trust? Will you carry it
out. as if you were myself? This is nc
child's play, be sure of that! You are a
good fellow you are my friend; but if
you were my brother or my father it
would not be too much."
"Make yourself easy on that score,
mon cher," returned the adventurer, lay
ing his hand on the other's shoulder. "1
don't want to drag out of you anything
you prefer to keep to yourself, and it is
only in your own interest that I speak.
But as to trusting me -what shall I say?
I have lived as I can I don't deny it;
but after all, I am an honest man, and 1
would as soon think of betraying you as
of scuttling this ship and swimming
"ashore. Voila!" -
"If you keep your word, Francois, you
will be fortunate the rest of your life,",
said Solange; -"but," he added, half
raising himself on one elbow, "if you"
do betray me, may you die as I am dy
ing; and with no one to love you; and
until you die my ghost shall haunt you
day and night and make your life a hor
ror!" "Bah! bah! there is no need of this,"
said Dupont, with a laugh. "I- have
said that you may trust me, and I can
say no more. Now, do as best pleases
you."
"Bend over here," faltered the other
huskily, "and let me whisper in. your
Solange died just after midnight. Du
pont, after- securing all the papers that
he could find in the stateroom, prepared
the body for burial, and with the assist
ance of the captain heaved it overboard.
"May your'8leep be peaceful, old" com
rade," he muttered, as he leaned over
the bulwarks and marked the phospho
rescent glimmer as the corpse sank into
the depths of the sea. "Truly you had
a heavy load to carry on this earth. Yoa
were not equal to it; and Providence,
who favors the strong, transferred it to
me. Well, I shall know what to do
with it, ghost or no ghost! Farewell."

CHAPTER VI.
TWO DESPERADOES.
It will be remembered that the jury
adjudged Keppel Darke guilty of murder
in the second degree perhaps to fortify
their consciences against the phantom of
that small man with the hair on bis face.
The public so far as the newspapers rep
resented it professed itself satisfied with
the sentence of imprisonment for life in
Sing Sing. The prisoner himself, how
ever, was ungrateful enough to declare
himself highly discontented; and Olym
pia Raven, who contrived, in spite of her
mothers protestations, to gain access to
the prison before he left New York, said
to him words which he never forgot, and
which made him resolve never to give
up the hope of freedom. 'Keppel," she
said, "I know yon are innocent.- I prom
ise to love you always and never to marry
any man but yon."
The authorities were very proud of the
celerity which bad characterized their
duct of the case from the beginning.
Instead of lingering along for: two oi
three years they had their man convicted
in three or four months. It was a lovely
day in summer when sentence was pro
nounced, and in order to maintain their
good record they arranged to dispatch
the prisoner to Sing Sing that night.
At sunset a heavy thunderstorm sprang
up, and instead of clearing away after
an hour or two fresh battalions of clouds
gathered as darkness fell, and the elec
trical flashes and detonations shivered
and resounded through the heavens. The
train with Keppel on board started from
the station in the midst of a drenching
rain.
. Keppel sat in the car next the baggage
car. Frank Monroe, the detective who
had arrested him, sat in the seat by his
side. His left wrist was fastened to the
right wrist of the officer by the hand
cuffs. Another officer sat in the seat in
front of him. There were about twenty
other passengers in the car; bat few oi
none of them were aware that Keppel
was a prisoner still less that he was the
famous murderer of Harry Trent.
Most of them bogan to be sleepy af tei
half an hour or so and disposed them
selves as comfortably -as they could for a
nap. Even the detective's eyes were
heavy, and he kept himself awake only
by a vigorous chewing of tobacco. But
Keppel was not sleepy in the least. H
felt as if he should never sleep again.
He reviewed in his mind all the inci
dents of the last three months. A silent
passion of rage and rebellion seized upon
him. He felt that to gain liberty ha
would do murder a hundred times over.
He was at deadly war with the world; it
had taken from him without -justification
everything that he held dear. No
.imaginable retaliation on his part could
be too great. But he was absolutely
helpless. He was chained to his captor,
and in little more than an hour he would
be between walls that he could never
scale. The rain dashed against the win
dows; the lightning glared through the
darkness. Oh, if heaven would but send
a bolt to shatter hi 3 fetters and set him
free!
His eyes, wandering about the car, be
came fixed upon a young man who was
seated in the next seat forward, on the
other side of the aisle. It struck him
that this young man bore a considerable
resemblance to himself. He was tall
and rather slender, and had long dark
hair that hung down on the back of his
neck. His hands were slender, with long
pointed fingers. The face was scarcely
like his; the doso was different, and
there was a slight mustache on the up
per lip. His coat, too, instead of being
black, like Keppel's, was a gray summer
tweed. He sat in the corner of the seat
by the window, with his head thrown
back, asleep. How careless and secure
he looked. He had a, happy life before
him. There were no fetters round his
wrists; no gloomy jail to shut out for
ever the smile of the world and the com
panionship of men. But for the accursed
blind fate that makes the innocent suffer
for the guilty, so might Keppel have
been sitting at that moment.- He ground
his teeth together and a sweat broke out
on his forehead.
The key that unlocked the handcuffs.
A shock jarred him to his center, and
the next moment his left arm was al
most wrenched from its socket. He was
lying with his head on the floor of the
aisle. The car, with a rending and crack
ling noise, was lifted almost erect and
then fell on its side. The lamps had
fallen and were extinguished; in the dark
ness something came grinding swiftly to
ward him and went by. He heard the
shattering of. splintered glass and the
groan of tearing timbers. - There had
been a rugged leaping and a series of ter
rific concussions; now all motion ceased,
but there was a deafening hiss of steam.
The soft night breeze blew on his face
and he felt the rain falling. A dark,
irregular mass loomed distinctly between
him and the sky; and now he heard
screams and cries of deadly anguish and
calls, confused and aimless.. One wom
an's voice shrieked piercingly and then
was silent He lay in the midst of be
wilderment, ruin and death.
His arm was paining him. He changed
his position so as to relax the strain upon
it. His wrist was still chained to that
of the officer, and was bleeding. He spoke
to the man, but got no answer; he was
lying in a strangely twisted attitude, his
bead was bent into his breast. Keppel
ssized bim by the shoulder; the man's
head swung over loosely to the right; his
neck was broken; he was quite dead.
Keppel got on his feet, standing on the
side of the car. His eyes becoming accus
tomed to the darkness discovered the
feet of another man protruding upward
from a mass of debris. Just then a flash
of lightning revealed his face; it was
that of the other officer. His body was
crushed to a pulp by the ragged end of a
broken beam.
Keppel waited a moment to collect his
thoughts. In the midst of the horror
and chaos surrounding him a spasm of
hope and joy caught his heart and he
laughed aloud. His brain became in an
instant preternaturally clear: he saw
what he must do, and realized that no
time was to be lost in doing it.
Stooping over the body of the detect
ive, he felt in the pockets of his clothes,
and in a minute found a key the key
that unlocked the handcuffs. He ap
plied it; the next moment he ,was free.
But he was not safe yet; there could be
no safety as long as tliere remained any
probability of pursuit. Keppel looked
around him.
