Tli, ,,,, 'JN wore no collar on his check cotton shirt, but around his throat was loosely tied a red pocket handkerchief. A bag contain ing n few tools was slung over his shoul der. Presently he stopped, ostensibly to pur chase some fruit, which a hawker in one of the barrows in the middle of the street was vociferously offering for sale. As he stood there chatting in a friendly way with the peddler, however, his gaze in reality fixed upon a scene before him unique even among the curious phases of life to be encountered iu the Rue Ban quiere. In a shop which In point of size was double at least that of either of its ad joining neighbors, a crowd of the very poorest of Belleville had gathered. There must have been thirty or forty men, worn en and children inside the doors, at the had her way, perhaps, she would have the police let the people of Belleville alone altogether, and never come near them. Madame was emphatic that she would, "for some of the worst of them were her best customers," she remarked, laughing. "I am in the door and window busi ness," replied the man with the bag, sig nificantly. "I thought you were not in a straight line when I first saw you." said the cook. "Your hands ain't rough enough, and you look altogether too fat. Workmen don't live ns you've lived." "Oh! they feed us well enough where I've just come from," replied the work man; nnd he kept his eyes steadily fixed on madam's face. "I've just spent five years in the prisons of Toulon why, whats the matter, madame? You never snfer to use for lifting tho cakes from tho water and hoisting Into the wag- conqueror rather than of a man who had met with a humiliating accident. Cassagne entered Into a circumstantial relation of his adventures. When he ar rived at what he facetiously termed tho "frog-pond Incident," D'Auburon could not restrain his mirth, and It was so con tngious that Cassagne, though the joko was against himself, could not refrain from joining him. Tho two men roared until the room shook again. When their merriment had somewhat subsided M. Cassagne took up tho thread of his narra tive in this wise : "I had hardly got my head out of water, and cleared my ears and eyes, be fore I heard a door open and shut, iu the back part of the house. I crept softly out of tho fountain and lay extended at full length jipon the grass. Straining my eyes in the direction of the house, I per ceived the figure of a woman coming to ward me.

Over this shop swung a sign-board, on But madame was deadly white, and both sides of which was painted the figure clutching spasmodically at the greasy or a man-cook, in a white cap and apron, counter. industriously carving an unnaturally red round beef; 'and underneath, apparently unharmed by the steam and the gravy, for It was plainly to be read, was the democratic legend, "I carve for the peo ple." Inside the shop a gentleman similarly habited, but a trifle less corpulent and dignified than his counterfeit presentment on the sign, was at that moment actually engaged in the very occupation which the legend advertised. He was engaged in carving for the people. In place, however, of operating upon a round of beef, he was engaged in slic ing, with great rapidity, a meat pudding. This pudding itself, apart from the hun gry crowd waiting to devour it, was an object worth looking at. It .was at least five feet long and as thick as a ship's cable. As tho cook cut off a slice, a stout woman of about fifty-five years of age would seize it, wrap it up in a piece of newspaper, and hand it to someone In the crowd, not letting go of the appetiz ing morsel, however, until she had re ceived In exchange therefor two coins in copper, a great heap of which lay in a drawer beside her. "It is nothing." she gasped at length. "It Is the heat it is I am not well. Monsieur will call again. I hope he will be a good customer. We have many like him." "And I'm all right, you know," said the man with the bag. "The police can't touch me, for I've served my time." He slung his bag over his shoulder, picked up his parcels, and wishing the pair good night, passed out on to the nearly deserted street, with the hang-dog look of a man who had been hunted often, and dreaded to be hunted again. He trudged on to the top of the Rue Ban qulere, and gained a broader thorough fare. Immediately around the corner there was a cab in waiting. The man with the bag entered it, and raising the trap door in the roof, said to the sleepy driver : "Home !" And as he rattled along on tbe pavement, he said to himself: "Mcn dotti was right- The woman is undoubt edly Madame La Seur. Of course she would change, per name when she mar ried again. How she blanched when I spoke of Toulon.- And another thing I'm sure of : she never bought that house and bottom should be smooth in order to slide freely over the Ice. The sweep, C, should lie about 10 feet long, or over, with n rope attach ed to each end. Tho sweep Is pivoted on top of the upright, B, from one- qunrter to oue-thlril projecting over, where the Ice tongs nre nttached. The remaining portion, with the rope, I), attached gives plenty of leverage for shoulders. In that brief moment I saw and recognized her." "Who was she?" exclaimed D'Auburon in n tone of almost breathless Interest. "She wns the woman I expected. She was Madame Colbert-Bemplin, the bank er's wife." "You are joking," exclaimed D'Au buron. "Both Mendottl and yourself must I t..tl.n TLa Itnl.f im. uutc uvnu una. unit.. aiic . iii . , certain, you say. It was some young lady llft'f tu cakes. of the household going to meet her lover."

"Not such a pudding as that," replied the man with the bag. "It's quite a sight, ain't it? Why, there's another." "That's nothing. They'll keep that thing up for an hour yet. Old Mother Merchant's puddings have a reputation, I tell you, In the Itue Banquiere." 'The shop, then, belongs to Madame Merchant, who, I suppose, is that old lady?" "Yes, and not only tbe shop, but the house as well. She has not been cutting puddings all these years for nothing. She's a pretty good-hearted woman, though, and nobody begrudges her her money. In the winter time she lets me sell hot pies right In front of her shop here, though it's against her own trade." The glare of the petroleum lamps flick ered up less brightly. The night crept on apace. The fierce glare of the street changed to a dingy twilight. It was as If the footlights had been turned half-way down iu some realistic melodrama. The crowd melted away at last. Only tho stub end of one of the pud dings remained on the greasy counter. Tho drawer wan piled full of coins. A wretched woman, gaunt with famine, was the only customer left. She was bargain ing for a bone with which to make soup. Her two starving children, clinging to her tattered gown, eyed with wistful looks the remnant of the pudding; but it was a luxury beyond their mother's means. The workman took up his( bag, and nodding good-night to the huckster, cross ed over into the shop. The man In the cap and apron was resting from his la bors.

It was Mendottl, one of Cassagne's men. who spoke to his employer, as both stood in the deep shadow of a tree, whose fur thest branches spread over the narrow street and beyond a high brick wall op posite. "She went in there, not twenty minutes ago," repeated Mendotti. pointing with his finger to a wooden door, which was let into the wall. "I at once sent you a message. I have not moved from hero except to do that. She's in there yet. I don't know whose house it is." "But I do. It is the residence of Col- bert-Hemplin, the rich banker of the Place de 1'Opera.
