THE LION’S CLAW

Lieutenant Julien de Rhe had returned in a sad state from his station in Cochin China. Convalescent, after three months’ illness at his mother’s home in Tcuraine, he shivered at the first wintry breath in the autumn air and was ordered by the doctor to Paun—‘‘Just what you want— mild but bracing climat».”’

So in mid-November Julien sat at his sunny window in Hotel Garderes gazing at the Pyrenees and smoking a cigarette in honor of his recovery.

“My faith! Pau is full of pretty wom- en,’’ he said to himself the first time he went to listen to the military band at the Place Royale. Neither libertine nor fop, the young fellow thrilled with a fresh joy in living as he put on his coat with its shining three straps, the rosette of the Legion of Honor in the buttonhole—the rosette his mother had laid on his bed when he was soll, and that he thought he would only wear in his coffin.

How jolly Pau was anyhow, with its yast horizon, its snowy peaks, its brilliant sun, the cosmopolitan crowd, where pretty foreigners chatted a!l the languages of Eu- rope like tropic birds in an aviary! A few sad sights to be sure—the consumptive young Englishman in a bath chair, wrap- ped in plaids, with the eyes of a boiled fish, a black taffeta mufiler over his mouth.

ton he had been three months ago, with chocolate rings under his eyes, and here he was cured, tossing silver coins to the

American girls in flyaway frocks and black gloves and stockings, dancing a ‘ring around a rosy’’ to the band’s quick- step. ! . e a 7. a + o% Just the frame of mind for falling in love, wasn't it? This the happy conva- lescent proceeded to do the first time he set eyes on Mile. Olga Babrine, the belle of the Russian colony, as she dismounted in front of Hotel Gasson—the coup de foudre, in fact. Back from fox hunting one even- ing at 5, she had slipped from her horse into the arms of the nimblest of the pink colored adorers who rushed for her stirrup. Striking the veranda table with her crop, she had called foracup of milk and drank {¢ off atadraft. Looking like a Primat- ticcio goddess, her slim figure and copper colored hair illuminated by the flaring sunset, she paused, laughing merrily, a creamy mustache on her upper lip. Sud- denly grave, with a curt, imperious nod, she left the redcoats and entered the hotel, tapping her riding habit with her whip. Threo days later, after many a ‘‘Who is she? I must know her!”’ to his acquaint- ances, Julien got himself introduced—not a difficult process — and joined the fair Russian’s court.

Was she a Russian, after all, this intoxi- | cating creature, who rode all day and waltzea all night? Yes, by her putative

father, her mother’s first husband, Count Babarine. eee every one remembered that at the time of Olga’s birth her mother—the | daughter, by the way, of a New York banker named Jacobson-—was getting a divorce, probably on account of her notori- ous liaison with a northern prince royal, some Christian, or Oscar, or other. Whgs was the nationality of a child brought up successively in a Scottish nursery, a Nea- politan conyent, a Genevan pensionnat, who had slept half her nights on the cush- | ions of the express, whose memory was @ stereoscope in which revolved a series of watering places and winter resorts, whith- | er her mother, handsome still in spite of , erysipelas, had carried the ennui of a fad- ing coquette along with her samovar and her pet monkeys? The odd girl used to , say, laughing at herself: “I am neither of London nor of Paris nor of Vienna nor of Petersburg. I’m of the table d’hote.” Had she any family? Hardly more so. Her real father, the Oscar or Christian so often referred to by Mme. Babarine, had been dead some years, and the Russian count, her legal father, never bothered his head about her. Utterly bankrupt, a civi- lized Leather Stocking, who won all the pigeon matches, his unerring gun gave him a living. The countess, in spite of periodical attacks of maternal dc votion— painfully hollew—was gifted with one of the perfect, absolute, spherical egotisms that never show a flaw. When Olga at 8 had almost died of typhoid, Mme. Baharine of the white hands—for the sake of de- cency sitting up with her child—did not once forget to put on her gants gras.

All this De Rhe learned after enlisting in the flying squadron that maneuvered about fair Olga. He began to love the strange girl, who let him look straight into her eyes, and who said to him as she lita pheresli cigarette the day a friend present- ed him: ‘“‘Ah! You are the man who is so miich in ldVe with me! How do you do?” giving him a hearty handshake, like a man. The sailor, true hearted fellow that he was, loved her the more as he grew to understand and pity her. For he was right—Olga was fantastic, ill brought up, but neither a flirt nor asnob. Feeling per- haps the vanity of her life of pleasure, she judged, and that severely, her fox hunting adorers and her cotillon partners. All de- sired her; none esteemed her; not one had made her an offer of marriage. So she pulled them up short if they ventured to speak too close to her earin the whirl of the waltz or pressed too long the hand she held out to them en camarade,

Babarine, seated with the light discreetly behind her evoked her royal conquests in northern courts.

As she handed him his glass of Russian tea he thought he now and then caught, deep in her eyes, a gentle light that seemed an answer to his gener- ous pity.

“Yes, mademoiselle, my leave is up next week. Ileave Pau tomorrow, and after a few days with my sister in Touraine I shall go to Brest. Ina year I shall be at sea again.”’

They were standing in the hotel writing room, near the open window, with its pal- pitating night sky.

“Goodby, then, and bon voyage,” said Olga in her frank, firm voice, ‘‘But you must give mea little keepsake—that lion’s claw you wear asa watch charm—a trophy of an African lion hunt, didn’t you tell me? It appeals to the flerce and free in me, you know.”’

Julien took off the charm and put it into the girl’s fingers. Suddenly grasping her hand in both of his, he said ardently: “T love you. Will you be my wife?’’

Olga freed herself, keeping the lion’s claw. Folding her arms, she looked straight at him, apparently unmoved. ‘‘No, no, and yet you ure the first to love me and to tell me so in that good way. That’s why I refuse you.”

*Olga!’’ cried Julien in voice.

‘*Listen to me and I will explain. I am not worthy of you. You would be vun- happy with me. You remember your sis- ter’s letter that you said you had lost?

—your family. Be grateful for the mother you have, M. de Rhe. I have a mother, too, but I have been forced to judge her. You have seen only her ridiculous sides, but I know her better. She would refuse you my hand because you are only of the gentry and in moderate circumstances. She has decided that either I am to make a brilliant match or she will find some- thing else. I know a lot, don’t I, fora girl of 19? Horrible, isn’t it? But it’s true. That’s why last winter we were at Nice, last summer at Scheveningen, now at Pau, That's why we are ro!!ing like trunks from one end of Europe to the oth- er. Mamma was almost a princess royal, you see, and from 15 I’ve been given to understand that I was meant for an arch- duchess at least, even if a left handed one,

‘Marry a mere gentleman, almost a bourgeois! Ah, you are disgusted, and I’m ashamed of myself. Do not protest. Besides, I am expensive and useless, and you don’t need me, and I wouldn’t make you happy, and I don’t love you. I don’t love any one. Love is in the things that I've always been forbidden. Goodby. Get up and go away without a word. But leave me your lion’s claw to remind me of the honest fellow whom I haye treated honestly. Adieu)’
