Tbe laughing suddenly coased, and
they looked at one another In consterna
tion. All at once another cry was beard, a
piercing shriek coming through the still
ness of the night It appeared to earn
nate from Miss Hawthorne's chamber.
There wns a rush for her apartioeut,
sud the English lady was found stand
ing in the middle of the room, with
frightened eyes.
"There, there!" sho cried, pointing
to tho window. "A maul lie escaped,
but 1 recognized him. "
"Who was it?"
"Dr. Coruabuc!"
The doctor again I This time nobody
laugbed. Coruaboo was looked for
among the persons who bad been at
tracted by the excitement, but be was
not tbore. lie was the only occupant of
tbe 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 Kerdail, the men half
dressed, the women in their white night
robes, all carrying candles a weird
processinu. Upon tbe entrance of the
crowd, the doctor hurriedly wrapped
himself in the bedclothes, his wrinkled
countenance alone boitig visible over
the top, aud this convulsed by anger in
to a comical grimace. Tbo candle light
was reflected from bis bald pate, which
shone like old ivory.
"Is this some 111 tiniod joko?" be
stormed. "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 aud join us, doo
tor," said Kerdail.
"And bow shall I do it?" cried the
doctor furiously. "Some raneal has run
off with my clothing, and in exchange
bos left me this, " and be savagely hurl
ed a white object into tbo middle of the
room.
"My corsets!" murmured Miss Haw
thorne, modestly lowering ber eyes.
"And this!" continued tho doctor,
wildly brandishing another article.
"My hat!" cried Mine, do Lartigues.
"This railery posies all bounds,"
bowled the doctor, whose shining bead,
with one final grimace, ducked beneath
tbe bedclothing, like the clown going
through a trapdoor in tbe marionette
theater.
They know not what to think. Tbe
mystery was growing more complicated.
It certainly looked as though a robber
bud entered the chateau perhaps a
whole baud of bnrglars and assassins.
Mine, de Lartigues imagined a troop of
brigands armed to tho tovtb.
"Let ns hope tbey have no gnus, "
said the marquis, to raiae the hopes of
his guests.
There was no echo to the pleasantry.
Suddenly a strange sonnd was heard
coming from tho 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 tbe keys must be bro
ken. "This is too muchl" cried the mar
quis, rushing toward tbe staircase, with
all tho crowd, except Dr. Comabuo,
closo behind him.
They bustily penetrated tbe salon. It
was empty. Tbe mysterious visitor was
gone, but be conld not be far away. Tbe
crash of china and glaBS announced his
presence in the diuing 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 himl" be cried.
The men seized guns and knives from
a bun ting rack in the vestibule uud start
ed across the garden aud park in pur
suit of tbe fugitive, while the women
barricaded themselves in tbe salon and
anxiously awaited the result of tbo
obasa It was about an hour lator, in
the uncertain light which precedes the
rising of the sun, that a servant discov
erdd the mysterious stranger ensconced
among the branches of a large oak. At
his call tbe marquis and bis guests has
tened to the spot
"Come down!" commanded M. de
Kerdail, but the bandit only settled
himself deeper among tbe foliage and
made no response.
"Come down, or I will shoot!"
And, as there was still no reply, he
lifted bis gun and already had bis fin
ger upon the trigger when tbedomestio
huriedly pulled his arm and said:
"Do not fire, monsieur. It is Dr Cor
nabnol" And, sure euongb, tbe 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. Tbe
marquis suddenly broke into a fit of ex
plosive laughter and, as bis guests garod
up into tbe tree tbey could not keep
from following his example.
"The ape!"
Everything was explained. Tbe ani
mal had escaped from bis cage the pre
vious evening and bad managed to ef
fect an entrance into the chateau. Ani
mated by his instinct of Imitation, he
bad first attired himself in the doctor's
effects and then wandered over tbe
bousa at his own free wilt He was put
back Into bis prison after some little
trouble, and at breakfast the party en
joyed a hearty laugh at the adventures
of the night.
But Dr. Coruabuc did not appear at
the tnble. He left tbe chateau at an
hour. furj0us and without taking
leave. Since this episode he na never
set foot at Kerdail, and be bas never
lost a feeling of dee p antipathy to Mine,

When I wrote F. C. Burnsnd aiking '
bim to grant an Interview, I did it with
trepidation, having beard that he ob
jected to the modem inquisition of tbe
interviewer. My eloquence evidently
prevailed, however, for he replied that '
I might have the satisfaction of execut
ing my editorial commission. It could
only bo a "sketchy" affair, as at tbe
preseut time be was so very bury that
his leisuro moments were fow and pre

about him as was necessary, I should
let bim off cosily.

was preparing to start off for the Savoy,

bis new piece.
"Of the many oomio papers Punch is
decidedly the only one that appears to
excite a vague, mysterious interest in
the bosom of the reading public. What
is the cause, Mr. Buruand?"
"Probably tbe hebdomadal dinner, at

"When was Punch startod?"
'Tuncb was started in 1841, a year

dates back to 1855, when be sent iu a
