BAflCROCHE.
(Traulnted frsom the Kraruh cf N. S.
do Forge.) ■■■■'>*
IS real esm<j wss
Simon Marlin, but
when a child he
bad ‘tractcfci jhis
hip, which accident
had crippled him
for lifo. and his
comrades at cciiool
had nicknamed him
Eatci'oche (twisted
leg). *T h e name
stick to him: lie
shoulders, an open face and clear eyes.
More than one of the pretty country
girls would have liked to know him,
but he hardly addressed a word to
them, held bach: by timidity and shame
of his poor leg. He never complained,
and when he watched his friends danc
ing at the fair, with their arms about
their partners’ waists, he accepted his
position with the philosophy of a coun
try fatalist. But one day ho suffered
the sorrow of a gTeat disappointment.
He wanted* to serve in the array, but:
first he must pass the examination
with the others. He marched limping
along the road with them, his hat or
namented with long tri-eolored rib
bons which floated In the breeze, and
sung at the top of his voice with an
animation which made him forget he
was not like the rest of the world. But
his Joy was short-lived.
“Unfit for service; deformity of the
hip,” pronounced the officer.
"It Is unfortunate,” added the gen
eral, “without that he would have
made a splendid soldier.”
Bancroche departed alone, his heart
fall of sadness and feeling the flower
of tourage and loyalty which had
sprung up In him wither from lack of
nourishment. He reached the farm
where he was employed without meet
ing anyone, and going to the bed where
he slept he threw himself down and
wept uncontrollably.
Some time after this Bancroche was
employed on the farm of a certain
Benoit, a well-to-do farmer, who had a
very pretty daughter named Mariette.
Her white teeth made a line of ivory
behind two rosy lips always parting in
a smile. Her figure was dainty, her
arms strong, her feet untiring; alto
gether she was the picture of vigorous
beauty. She might have been a Ceres
of Rubens, In all the strength and
freshness of her 20 years. And, of
course, Bancroche fell madly in love
with her. She was not long in per
ceiving her victory and, as she was
something of a coquette, she did all
she could to encourage him. She was
so good to him, looked at him with
eyes so sweet and bright that the
cripple was fired with love and hope,
letting himself dwell on happy dreams
of the future, in which he saw himself
departing from the church with Ma
riette, his wife, leaning on his arm.
He said many tender things to her, and
once, putting her mouth very close to
his ear, she had whispered: "Bancroche,
I love you!”
And after all, why not? he had asked
himself. To be sure he was a cripple,
but he invented a thousand reasons to
persuade himself that this was not an
obstacle. In marrying one thinks only
of the qualities of the heart., He had
. I . I
“SEIZE THE WOMAN AI-SO!”
come of a good family. He was held in
esteem by M. Benoit and was second
to him in command at the farm. All
these thoughts reassured him and he
spoke to Benoit of his hopes. To his
joy, Benoit gave him his hand willing
ly and said he would talk to his daugh
ter. who had just gone into the hay
field. Bancroche followed at a dis
tance. and himself unseen watched the
farmer approach Mariette and address
her in a low voice. Then, after a mo
ment, he saw her throw back her head
with a peal of laughter and heard her
cry: “With his leg? And I would be
a Mme. Bancroche? No! No! No!”
Poor Bancroche did not return until
evening and then he took his place at
supper without noticing the sad looks
of Benoit, nor the haughty glances of
Mariette, who was willing to 'be loved,
but angry that he, a cripple, should
have dared to ask her hand.
“1 understand, M. Benoit," he said,
after supper; “we will say no more
about it. I was wrong in forgetting my
leg.” And more than this ho would
not say, going on with his work as
usual, always brave, sometimes sad.
but never troubling either father or
daughter. And when, three months af
ter, Mariette married Sylvain Oill'et,
proprietor of the Coq-d'Argent hotel,
he assisted at the wedding and r.o one
noticed that his eyes wero red.
There was great excitement in the
village of Saint Georges. The Prus
sians were coming. They had already
occupied the neighbor! ig village and'
twenty times an hour each person look
ed anxiously down the road to the for
est. the direction from which the ene
my was expected to come. All the
able-bodied men had gone to war, with
the exception of Sylvain Gillct, who
trembled at the thought of being killed.
A drinker and a braggart, deceitful and
wicked, he-had made his wit* terribly
unhappy, and Marlptte, made wis«.v by
time, had often thought regretfully if
the honesty and sweetness of ,;:nv.
errehe. GUlct know his townspeople
looked upon him disannrovmgly for
remaining so quietly at home, Ins,end
of going to light for his ee tin try, a ,.t
he determined to win, by coo bold
strike, their appreciation t-.nd gratitude.
Ho. taking a rifle, he hid himself la tnex
bushes at the roadside !:i the forest,
and when the advance guard passed he
filed and killed one soldier. The i'
suit of the deed was not long delayed
Two hours afterward a Prussian bet
tnlioh occupied the village and the in
habitants. men and women, wero or
dered to assemble in the public square.
In fairly plain French the commandant
addressed them:
,‘‘One of you has shot one of our sol
diers. I give you one hour to predate
the murderer. The village is sur
rounded and no one can leave. If In an
hour the assassin is not in my hands I
will set fire to your village at Its four
corners. Now go home, and at the first
heat of the drum come back here.”
The peasants turned away, asking
each other In frightened whispers who
had fired the shot. Bancroche entered
the inn of Coq d'Argent, and as soon
as he saw the white, fearful face of
Gillet he said, brusquely:
"It was you.”
Gillet tried to answer, but Bancroche
Interrupted him authoritatively:
“Don’t take the trouble to lie; it was
you.”
Marlette and two or three others,
who heard his words, stopped In star
tled surprise.
"What would they do to him if they
knew It?” asked one.
“They would shoot him. And If
they do not know it they will burn tBo
village.”
All were silent, terrified, except Gil
let, who cried, with chattering teeth:
“In the name of pity, do not give me
up.”
“Wretch, would you have us all
burned?”
At this Instant the drum sounded.
“Listen,” said Bancroche, rising;
“listen a moment. You, Sylvaln Gil
let, must not die, for you have a wife.
But neither must the village be burned.
I think I see a way. Stay where you
are, Gillet, and you others, swear to
keep silent. I will take care of the
rest.” And they all departed, leaving
Gillet
“Who Is guilty?” cried the officer. In
a terrible voice.
Bancroche made a step forward and
said quietly, “It was I.”
“You,” said the officer, “a cripple!”
“That does not prevent my firing «
gun.”
“Your name?”
Simon Martin, but on account of my
leg I am called Bancroche.”
“You confess that you killed the sol
dier.”
“Yes.”
“Do you know you will be shot?”
“I do.”
The commander could not but ad
mire the calmness of Bancroche's
speech. The crowd listened, breath
less, amazed that Bancroche, known
to be so peaceable, could have fired
the shot, but glad, nevertheless, that
the village would be saved.
“Eight men; behind the church!”
commanded the officer.
At this moment Marlette, forcing her
way through the crowd, ran toward the
officer crying, “Stop! he lies! It was
not he.”
“What are you saying?”
“I tell you he Is not guilty. It was
not he.”
“Hurry with the man,” cried the of
ficer.
Marlette escaped from the soldiers
who tried to hold her and threw her
seif on her knees before the officer.
“Monsieur, I pray you, do not kill
him! He is Innocent! Do not kill
him! Oh. I beg you!”
“What is he to you?” asked the of
ficer. “Your husband, your brother,
your father?”
“He Is- Oh, in the name of God,
do not kill him! I love him! ”
The officer burst into a loud laugh.
“Then kill me, too,” cried Marlette.
“But you have done nothing to de
serve it.” ,
She sprang up with a bound and
standing before him struck him de
liberately In the face. The soldiers ut
tered a cry of rage.
“Seize the woman, also!” cried the
officer furiously.
"We wl!l die together,” said Marietfe,
placing herself beside the cripple.
“Come, Bancroche, I love you.”
They were shot behind the church.
The soldiers dug a grave In the ceme
tary and burled them together, mar
ried In death. The village of Saint
Georges was not burned.
Indian Women Who Farm.
In the Indian village on the banks
of the Minnesota river, about one mile
down stream from tihakopec, lives a
band of Indians who till the soil, make
bows and arrows and moccasins, and
trade with the neighboring farmers.
Among the villagers are some interest
ing women, one of them being Mrs.
Otherday, the sister of Shakopee of Lit
tle Six, one of the most noted chiefs
of the Sioux nation. The women of
the Shakopee colony assist in the farm
ing and make beautiful beadwork,
whleh they sell at the summer wuort
hotels. Mrs. Otherday is a st.—ng
well-preserved elderly woman, .>>uoh
looked up to by her own people and her
white neighbors.
