"Yes, quickly and thoroughly. He-

two weeks I was able to leave my bed aud

tinued to use the pills, however, until

"Are there no traces left?"
"Absolutely none. For a year and

Within the Ixmnds of China township,

One of Mr. Sehrooppol'a neighbors, Cap-
(nintieorge Halfour, after hearing of the
salutary results in Mr. Hchroeppel'a case,
decided to try Dr. Williams' Pink 1'illa

It is little wonder that Dr. Willi-tnts'
Pink Pills are much in favor iu tlin com-
munity where Mr. Seliroeppel and Cup-
tain Balfour aro so well aud favorably
known. They aro sold by all druggists
and are equally successful iu curing

taking a house of her own, where,

more contented.
When the summer of 1812 had

make her an object of awe and aver-

It was. therefore, with a sigh of re-

his master had gone inside.
He remained sitting on the step*,
his chin supported by two yellow
palms, while a group of young negroes

Every housekeeper should know
that if they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because it
never sticka to the Iron, but because
each package contains 16 oa.—one full
pound—while all other Cold Water
Starclics are put up In %-pound pack-
ages, and the price is the same. 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all Injurious chem-
icals. If your groccr tries to sell you a
12-oz. package it is because he has
a stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Stsrch has
printed on every package in large let-
ters and figures "16 oas." Demand
Deflar.ce and aave much time and
money and the annoyance of the iron
ntlcking. Defiance never sticks.
sven should the occaaion or necessity
irise.
Her childish trust In him became de-
itroyed; he saw her shrink from him
n terror and abhorrence. And this
iwakened in him the knowledge that
the—as he supposed—paternal love he
lad been cherishing for the child of
ter who had always been his ideal, was
lot the affection of a father for his
laughter, hut the love of a man for
I woman.
The bitterest potion he had ever
iwallowed was now working in his
reins. Yet no one would have sus-
pected this, as he went his way. and
tor a time with greater recklessness
lhan before, although the rumor men-
tioned by Pierre had now become a
'act, Inasmuch as the governor of IjOU-
siana had issued a proclamation offer-
ng a reward for Lafltte's apprehen-
ilon.
This had come about by reason of a
melee In the bayou Lafourche, and
arhlch proved to be the chip which
kindled to a blaze the long-smoulder-
,ng fire of wrath against the Bara-
tartans.
When the Information was brought
to Lafitte, accompanied by a copy of
the proclamation, be had, without de-
lay, taken a pinnace and set out for
the extreme southerly side of Grande
Terre, upon which waa the Count de
Cazeneau's abode.
At the sound of Lafltte's feet upon
the steps, a woman's weazened face,
wrinkled and scowling. Its coffee-hue
contrasting with wisps of gray, wiry
wool showing from beneath a bright-
;olored bandanna, was projected from
jne of the numerous doors opening
Trom the hallway Into various rooms
in the two wings of the building.
It was apparent that she recognized
the visitor, for she came out into the
hall and, despite her age, advanced
briskly toward him.
"Ah, Zeney, there you are, looking
as young as ever," was his smilingly
spoken greeting.
"Always you say words. Captain
Jean, that please, even when one
knows they are not true."
Lafitte laughed lightly.
"Is your young mistress well?" he
inquired.
"Yes. she Is well." Zeney answered.
In a tone Implying that more might be
iald.
stood with bended head, as if listen-
ing.
Nato was still staring at the girl
when she started Impetuoualy, and
went huTrledly dowp the hallway.
Led by curiosity, the boy jumped to
his feet, and saw her descend the
Bteps of the back gallery, and go
swiftly into the woods, which seemed
to swallow up the snowy form and
glittering hair—swallow them so sud-
denly as to leave In the boy's supersti-
tious mind an uncomfortable sugges-
tion that she was not real flesh and
blood, but a "sperlt," or perhaps a
second voudoo priestess.
Within the room, rear whose open
door the girl had stood, Lafitte and
De Cazeneau were having a serious
conversation.
Following the custom of the time,
De Cazeneau had reached out to ring
a bell for refreshments, when Lafitte,
with an expressive gesture, stayed his
hand.
"No, M'sieur le Comte. I can tarry-
but a very short time—only long
enough to impart the very important
Intelligence I came to bring you."
And he held out a paper he had
drawn from hia pocket.
The count, having put on his
glasses, took the document; and his
wavering hands made the blue paper
quiver as if his own startled pulse-
beats had stolen into It while he read
the contents aloud.
"Whereas the nefarious practice of
running in contraband goods, which
has hitherto prevailed In different
parts of the state, to thf great Injury
of the fair trader, and the dlmi.-.'tt'nn
of the revenue of the United States,
has of late much increased: and.
whereas It has been officially known
to me that, on the 14th of last month,
a quantity of smuggled goods, seized
by Walter Gilbert, an officer of the
revenue of the United States, were
forcibly taken from him In open day.
at no great distance from the city of
New Orleans, by a party of armed
men, under the orders of a certain
Jean I^Ctte. who fired upon and griev-
ously wounded one of the assistants of
the said Walter Gilbert:
"I have thought proper to Issue tills,
my proclamation; and I do solemnly
caution all and singular citizens of
this state against giving any kind of
succor, support or courtenance to fhe
•aid Jet - Lafitte and associates, bat
do call th< iu u> be aiding and
abetting in arrt'sting him ar.J aaid as

offending, and I do furthermore, in
the nan.e of the slate, offer a reward
of five hundred dollars, which will be
paid out of the treasury to any person
delivering the said Jean 1 afltle to the
sheriff of the parish of Orleans, or to
any other sheriff in the state, so that
the said Jean l.afltte may be brought
to justice."
The Island Rose had heard th<
greater part of the doeument read In
her grandfather's voice, low. to be sure
but with a clear enunciation whict
made each syllable as distinct a
(hough she had been the reader In
stead of a listener. And when h«
ended, she heard the voice of him
heretofore known to her as "Oaptiir
Jean." and ita tone was one of banter
"Well. M'sieur le Court, will you In
the one to claim this five hundred do!
lars. and do your governor and siat<
a brilliant service by delivering ti
them this body of mine."
Then came her grandfather's stvrn
ly cold reply:
"What have I ever done, Csptaln
Jean l.afitte. that should lead you to
suppose I would stoop to traffic in tht
blood of my associates?"
't was this that made the smal
hand go fluttering toward the glrl'i
frightened heart. It was the revela
Hon that her "Captain Jean" was com
other than Lafitte. the terrible pirate
of whom she had heard such droadfui
tales! He was the freebooter, smug
gler and outlaw—the leader of that
fearful band of men she had shttd
dered to hear the slaves mention!
And not only was her grandfather cog
nlzant of this, but he was this man's
abettor —his associate and friend!
Her brain In a whirl, ber heart terrl
fled by dread of an undeflnable terror
she fled from the house, and ln'o the
woods, wandering on, scarcely know
Ing or caring where, until her steps
were arrested by the matted thicket
Into which she had penetrated with
unseeing eyes.
Now all was revealed to her. The
man whom of all others she trusted
In this new. strange, and fettered
world Into which she had been brought
from the peaceful Island home, when
life had been happy, and free from
fear—he was the notorious Lafitte,
the "Pirate of the Gulf," who scuttled
ships, who murdered men and women,
and whose hands were red with blood,
shed that he might plunder his vic-
tims.

GREAT AUTHOR AT PLAY.
Interesting Reminiscences of One Whc
Knew Hawthorne.
Mrs. Sedgwick, in "A Girl of Six
leen at. Brook Farm." gives a little
sketch of Hawthorne which shows him
in a pleasant and merry light, although
in general, she acknowledges, the
great author was silent, almost tacit
urn. One day she was learning vemes
to recite at the evening class formed
by Charles A. Dana. when, seelnt
Hawthorne sitting Immovable and sol
Itary on the sofa, she daringly thrust
the book in his hands.
"Will you hear me say my poetry
Mr. Hawthorne?" I said.
He gave me a sidelong glance from
his very shy eyes, took the book and
most kindly heard me. After that he
was on the sofa every week to heat
me recite.
One evening he was alone in thf
hall, sitting on a chair at the farthet
end, when my roommate and I were
going upstairs. She whispered to me:
"Let's throw a sofa pillow at Mr
Hawthorne."
Reaching over the banisters, wt
each took a pillow and threw it.
Quick as a flash he put out hia hand
seized a broom that was hanging neat
him, warded off our cushions and
threw them back with sure aim. A!
fast as we could throw them he re
turned them with effect, hitting u«
every lime, while we could only hit
the broom. He must have been very
quick in his movements.
Through it all not a word was spok-
en. We laughed and laughed, and his
eyes shone and twinkled like stars,
until we went off to bed vanquished
