CHAPTER XVIII.
( when Lafitte and Greloire were
ushered Into Napoleon's cabinet, and
the former's eyes (ell upon him he
hail for so many years longed to see,
his first sensation was that of pain.
, The slender form was gone,—lost
in the personality of the stout, middle-
aged man, who, lounging in a velvet-
cushioned chair, looked at Lafltte
<arelessly—coldly, as at an entire
stranger.
1 His appearance and attitude bore
out Greloire's remark,—that It was
said the emperor was "strangely in-
different to everything." Every lino
of the listless face and relaxed form
indicated this.
As the ex-soldier npproached and
bowed low, a faint smile lightened Na-
poleon's repellent expression, and ho
said graciously, "Greloire. I am
pleased to see you, and to know that
you have not forgotten ono who
thought highly of you In more pros-
perous days. Who is this you bring
with you?"
"Sire, Captain Jean Lafltte, of Lou-
isiana," answered Greloire, after a
moment's hesitancy; and Lafltte, com-
ing forward, bowed respectfully.
Jean Lafltte," Napoleon repeated
slowly, ]<x>klng, not at the former, but
at Greloire. "I have heard the name
before, but not to the wearer's credit.
I ask you, Greloire,"—and his voice
took a yet icier note,—"you, who aro
Lis sponsor, why Captain Jean Lafltte,
'of Louisiana, dare present himself
before me?"
i I, Jean Lafltte, will answer your
question, Sire; I, Jean lafitte, of
Louisiana! And 1 say to the man
whom my boyish heart adored, and
■whom my man's heart loves, that I
dare present myself to him because
I have ships, gold, men, at my com-
mand, and all these, with my own
life, are his, if ha can find use for
them."
There was a short silence, and one
"Tut, tirt, boy," replied Napoleon,
with all his old air of affection, and
tapping the shoulder upon which one
of his hands still rested, "when you
have reached my years you will know
better than to waste time and
thoughts in useless regrets. Let the
past go, Jean, my lad, and look only
into the future."
The emperor resumed his seat, and
resting his hands ui>on the arms of
the chair, stared straight before him,
while Ufltte stood looking down at
the Beated form.
"And may I not do something for
you?" urged I-aiitte, making a final
appeal.
"No—no. Go, you and Greloire;
you must leave me, for I feel It un-
wise that you remain another mo-
ment. Voij can do nothing—nothing,
for me. Hut I am glad to have seen
jon—both of you; and I thank you,
Jean, my valiant ghost from the past,
for your offer and your love."
The emperor, as ho spoke, leaned
forward In his chair; and there was a
caress in his smile and tone, as well
as in his touch upon Lafitte's hand.
"if ever u time should come, Sire,
when I can servo you, may I have
the honor and happiness of receiving
your commands?'' was asked longing-
ly.
"And you would come to me?"
"Come to you?" said Lafltte, In n
tone so emphatic that the emperor
made a gesturo of warning. "Yes,
Sire, through all the ships England
might seek to interpose."
"If this bo so, Jean, then perhaps
you may somo day hear from me.
Meanwhile your adopted country (and
I hope I may some time see it) is at
war with England, my most implac-
able enemy; and the conflict may af-
ford you an opportunity for freeing
the name of Lafltte from obloquy.
And, when this is done, I would ask
of you to assume again your rightful
name—the one belonging to your fa

"I, Jean Lafitte, will answer your question, Sire."
that seemed heavy, after the passion-
ate voice had ceased. Then an icy
tone made sharp contrast as the em-
peror said, "These ships, men, and
gold. Captain lafltte—how is it that
you come to have them?"
Lafltte found it difficult to control
Wmself—to make his voice and bear-
ing accord with the respect he felt,
and had but now expressed, for the
man whose sarcastic calm turned
back the impetuous torrent of his
feelings. But the tone in which ho
replied was quiet, although husky
with repressed emotion.
"Despite, Sire, the tales which have
distorted my name and acts, and
which I perceive have reached your
ears to prejudice you against me, I
claim that what I have of property
was personally gained by legitimate
means—In trading, and also by war-
fare which was perfectly honorablo
in its way. I have come with the
same heart for whose love you onco
cared, to pray that you lot me serve
you. If I may, and die happy. In win-
ning back the peace of mind a reck-
less boy threw away."
A new light swept like a softening
hand across Napoleon's austere face.
"Captain Lafltte, you are right," he
said, with an entire change of voice
and manner. He extended his hand;
and Lafltte. with n rush of new emo-
tions, bowed deeply, and pressed It
to his lips.
As he raised his head, the emperor's
fingers tightened their clasp, and ho
rose to his feet.
I "A man whose heart can treasure
such love for me during all these
many years Is surely one who should
not be misjudged," he said, looking
up into the younger man's face;
"most surely not by me, and at such
a time as the present."
As he uttered the final words ho
placed his arms around Lafitte's
shoulders and embraced him.
| "Sire!"
i A volume of emotions spoke in that
single word.
"Sire, my whole heart is grateful
for these words of confidence and
ther's title and estates."
"My father's name and estates,
Sire? Surely these are but phantoms
of the past, with which I. Jean la-
fitte, can have no connection."
The speculative eyes turned a smil-
ing glance upon him as the emperor
said. "It fs scarcely a safe thing to
aver what may or may not lie in the
future. You, who seem so desirous of
serving me—cannot you promise me
this?"
"Indeed, yes. Sire," was the fervent
answer as the speaker bent to touch
with his lips the hand pressing his
own.
He It so. Now"— and the clasping
hand released its hold—"you must
leave me; and he sure to remember
my wish that you remain with Murier
until you hear from me. Good-night,
Greloire. Good night, Jean.
The gray eyes and dark ones ex-
changed a last fleeting glance of part-
ing as Lafitte, following Greloire from
the room, paused an instant in the
doorway to look back.
Lafltte, quartered in one of Madame
Teche's dimity-hung chambers, slept
little that night. He reviewed again
and again the meeting with Napoleon,
until his brain was in a turmoil of
thought that banished sleep.
If the emperor would go to Amer-
ica, might not he, lafltte, be the
means of getting him there in safety?
It was late when Greloire went to
sleep, still half-conscious of the foot-
steps in the room next to his own;
and he awoke to see lafitte standing
by his bedside.
"It Is scarcely an hour after sun-
rise, Greloire, and I regret to disturb
you. But a messenger has just left a
package with me, together with a
written message from the emperor, re-
questing that you and I leave the is-
land now, as speedily as possible."
"So?" said Greloire, rubbing his
eyes. "Then it Is best that I leave
this comfortable bed. Hid you say
the emperor sent you a packet?"
"Yes. And when I tore off the outer
wrapping, I found upon the inner one
his request that I should not exam
open the packet, Theu I must tell
you something that has escapod uiy
mind until now."
Breakfast was soon despatched;
and, after thanking Madame Techu
for her hospitality, her guests took
their leave, pursued, until out of hear-
ing, by voluble farewells and urgiugs
to come again.
Murier walked with them to the
beach, which they found deserted,
with the full tido rolling In over the
pebbled sand in a hushed way, as if
its mood were depressed.
Lafitte, drawing a scarlet handker-
chief from his pocket, waved it above
his head; and the master of the fish-
ing-smack replied with a speedy hul-
loa that came faintly across tho
water.
The fisherman beached his boat
near Greloire, who now called to
them, and stood waiting u» they
strolled along to join hltn
The captain ef the smack was
easily induced to land his passengers
on the French coast; and they were
scarcely under vay before the former,
asking Greloire to accompany him,
went below, to open the package.
It v.u* somewhat bulky, and as his
fingers broke the last wrapping, a
collection of papers, some of them
discolored by years, others evidently
of more recent date, fell upon the
cabin table. And in their midst shone
the dull gold frame of an ivory-
painted miniature.
For a second I.afitte stared at this;
then, picking it up, ho looked Intently
at the gvpsy-like face of the portrait.
"Ah, nion Dleu! How came the
emperor by this?" he cried choking-
ly, the sight of the beautiful face,
which Margot had taught him to love
as "the mother whom he had never
known, making the past more real
than the present.
Greloire, who was lighting a cigar,
said dryly, "Examine the papers, and
if they do not tell you, perhaps I can
do so."
Lafltte glanced at them hurriedly.
They comprised his parents' marriage-
certificate, and all the other papers,
together ulth the jewels, that had
been in the small Iron box so many
years ago. There were also more re-
cent papers, showing that the prop-
erty in Languedoc had been released
from sequestration, and held in trust
by Napoleon, emperor of France, for
"Jean, son and heir of the Baron ,
and sometimes known as Jean Lafltte,
of Ijoulsiana, in North America."
All the documents were there, show-
ing in detail the legal proceedings, in-
stituted and perfected under the Con-
sulate, and confirmed under the Em-
pire.
As the last paper fell from his
hand, Lafitte buried his face in his
crossed arms amid the heap of pre-
cious things upon the table.
All the past was rolling In upon
him. a sea of living reality, so distinct
and intense that the present appeared
dim and vaporous.
What had, but last night, seemed
to him legitimate in tho light of his
every-day world, as he met its events,
now l«x>ked honor-stained when con-
fronted with the appealing sweetness
of the pictured face that had repre-
sented to his boyhood all that was
best and purest, and the present sight
of which had brought so vividly be-
fore his mental vision the dimmed
face of faithful Margot, anil that
proud, stately man he had known as
father, of whom he could recall no
word or act dictated by other than a
sense of the highest honor toward his
fellows.
And Bonaparte, the Idol of his
youthful heart, but for so many years
doubted and mistrusted,—he had ob-
tained and treasured these proofs of
the wayward boy's position as that
father's son and heir, while the son
himself was risking in alien lands tho
sacrifice of his rightful name and
heritage!
An anguished silence kept bim
mute; and Greloire, as if understand-
ing this, said nothing.

SOME PRANKS OF LIGHTNINO.
Fantastic Tricks Played Upon Unfor-
tunate Victims.
One of the fantastic tricks which
lightning plays upon its unfortunate
victims is a kind of flashlight pho-
tography. There are numerous In-
stances of this which are more or less
'authenticated," but they seem almost
too wonderful to be believad. One
of these Is of a young man In New
•Jersey who was struck by lightning
and was taken in an ambulance to the
hospital at once. There seemed to be
no wound except a small mark on the
back, but while the doctors and
nurses were examining him a picture
began to develop on the skin. Soon
before the wondering eyes of the
watchers appeared a perfect picture
of the figure of Christ nailed to the
cross. The explanation is that on the
wall opposite the bed on which the
young man lay was the picture which
was reproduced on his skin.
Another instance is of a man who
was struck by lightning, and on his
chest were red marks resembling the
tree with all Its branches tinder which
the man was standing when he was
killed. From France comes the story
of a peasant girl who was driving a
cow from the pasture when she was
overtaken by a storm, and she and
the cow took refuge under the tree. A
bolt killed the cow and stunned the
girl. When she recovered conscious-
ness she found on her chest a picture
of the cow she had been driving.
The chatelaine of the castle of
Renatonnalre was sitting In a chair
in her salon when the chateau was
struck by lightning. She was quite
uninjured, but on the back of her
dress was found a perfect copy of tho
chair on which she had been sitting,
down to Its minutest ornament. These j
are a few of the many strange pranks
which lightning plays upon us.
