AT THE TRIAL. OR details of tho hours that followed remained blurred mem T ories In the minds of Alice and her rescuer. They wandered In a strange subterranean region of pas Mgts and cross passages that widened and narrowed, that ascended and de scended, that wero sometimes smooth wider foot, but oftcner blocked with rough stones mid always black as Bight Surely no more pathetic pair than these two ever braved tho male1 of tho Paris catacombs. At any rate, through tho ghastly hor ror of darkness and weakness and pnln there presently came hope flick ering torches In the distance, then faint voices and tho presence of friends, some worklngmcn, occupied with drainage repairs, who produced stimulants and rough garments and showed them tho way to the upper "world, to the blessed sunshine. An hour later M. Faul and Allco "were In clean, cool beds nt a private hospital near the commissary's house, irith nurses and doctors bending over them. And on a chair beside the girl, Twittered and blackened, sat Esmer alda, whllo under the detective's pil low In an adjoining room was the scorched but unharmed diary of De Heldelmann-Druck! During tho weeks that Coquenil and JUico lay in the hospital, slowly recov ering from the shock and their burns, the time swung around for tho trial ef Lloyd Klttrcdge on tho charge of Murdering Martinez, tho billiard play- It was a delightful September after jsoou. Tho courtroom in the Palais de Jastlce ias crowded with fashlona 'fetes intent on witnessing the trial of Uoyd Klttrcdge. Pussy Wilmott, in -ker most fetching gown, sat well down 3r front. A distinguished looking man pressed through the crowd and was given a seat on the platform occupied By tho three Judges. "The Baron de Heklelrnann-Bruck" whispered eager teagues as the nobleman was thus bon end. Yes; it was the baron. Intent ea witnessing the last act in the awful lirama be had inaugurated. And now. suddenly, the blow felL As the prosecuting officer soared along 3a his oratorical flight a note was passed unobtrusively to the presiding 3udgc, a modest little note folded on Itself without even an envelope to hold It. For several minutes the note lay HHDoticed; then the Judge, with care less eye, glanced over it; then he start ed, frowned, and his quick rereading showed that a spark of something had Sashed from that scrap of paper. The presiding Judge leaned quickly toward his associate on the right and "whispered earnestly, then toward his associate on the left, and one after another tho three magistrates studied this startling communication, nodding learned heeds and lowering Judicial eyebrows. Tho public prosecutor blazed through his peroration to an inatten tive bench. No sooner bad the speaker finished than tho rlerk of the court announced "a brief recess, during which the Judges "Withdrew for deliberation and the au dience buzzed their wonder. During this Interval the Baron de Heldelmann Druck looked frankly bored. On tho return of the threo an an nouncement was made by the presid ing Judgo that important new evidence te tho case had been received, evidence of so unusual a character that the Judges had unanimously decided to in terrupt proceedings for a public hear ing of the evidence in question. It 'was further ordered that no one bo al lowed to leave the courtroom under any circumstances. ' "Call tho first witness!" ordered the 3udge. and amid the excitement caus- " -ed by these ominous words a small door opened and a woman entered leanlug on u guard. She waa dressed simply in black nud heavily veiled, but 5, lier tfrllsh llguro showed that she was Troung. As alio appeared Klttredge started violently. Tho woman came forward to tho witness stand and lift d tier veil. As she did so three dis- " 4lnct things happened: Tho audience murmured its admiration at u vision of strange beauty, Kittrcdgo stared In a dazo of Joy, und De Heldelmaun Bruck felt tho cold hand of death , 'Clutching at his heart. It was Allco come to her lover's ', fcecd, Allco risen from tho (lames, Al- Ice hero for chastening and Justice! t "What Is you name?" questioned tho i Judge. ' " "TMary Ooogan," was the clear an- jnrer. "Your uatlonallty?" ,- X am an American. I camo to JTrmice as a little girl." " How did that happen?" 'My father died and my mother married a second time." "Your mother married a Frcnch- saan?' "Yes." "What to the name of tho Frcnch f saan whom your mother married?" The girl hesitated, and then, looking v straight at the baron, sho said, "Tho Srou de Heldclmann-Bruck." 'la your mother living?" 'No.'' ' "How did she die?" U'Jif witness turnea to itiureuge. My saother was burned to death ' the Wall D. Appleton & Co. In tho charity bazaar Arc." she an swered lu n low voice. "State what you remember about tho fire." Tho girl looked down aud answered rapidly: "My mother and I went to tho charity bazaar with the Barou de Heldclmann-Bruck. When the Are broke out there was a panic. Thero was a window near us, through which some people were climbing. My moth er and I would have been able to escape, but tho Baron de Heldclmann Bruck pushed us back and climbed through himsvlf." "It's a lier cried the baron hoarsely. "SHencel" warned tho clerk. "And after that?" There came Into her face a look of terrible sadness. "I don't know what happened after that for a long time. I was very ill and for years I did not remember these things." "You mean that for years you did not remember what you have Just tes tified ?" "Yes, that is what I mean." The room was so hushed in expecta tion that the tension was like physical pain. "You did not remember your mother during theso years V "Xo." "Xot even her name?" Sho shook her head. "I did not re member my own name." "But now you remember every thing?' "Yes, everything." "When did you recover your mem ory?' "It began to come back a few weeks ago." "Under what circumstances?" "Under circumstances like those when when I lost it" "How do you mean?" "I 1" She turned slowly, as if drawn by some horrible fascination and looked at De Heldelmann-Bruck. The baron's face was ghastly white. "Yes?' encouraged the judge. ' "I was In another fire," she mur mured, still staring at the baron. "I I nearly lost my life there." (To Be Continued.)
