The tale printed b Iovv is founded on fact ) .
Two men , groping through the fog
jostled each other at the door to Dolly'
coffee house.
' Sir , " exclaimed the elder , layin )
hand to his sword , "a man of honor"-
"Invariably allows precedence to hi
senior , " interrupted the other , howini
gracefully and stepping aside.
"And , " continued the first speaker
the frown vanishing from his brow , "hi
grants so much consideration for tha
senior' testiness that ho excuses hin
and 'becomes his . guest at dinner. "
"Pardon , monsieur , " responded tin
yo anger man , "but I am the Count Po
niatowsld. "
"Then rank shall not hedge your re
fusal , for I am Frederick , king of Corsi
ca. So , now , to table , and , waiter
bring us of your best. "
Seated in the room to which the at
tendunt conducted them he of middl *
iigo and lie of primal vigor gazed a
each other questioniugly.
"Count , " began the former , "hav <
yon hopes in Poland ? "
"I scarce can tell. I wait the wil
; md favor of Catherine of Russia. "
"Dream not too fairly of the future
[ , too , wait and plan and hope bit
pshaw ! hero comes the wine. Now r
toast. Fill high and drink deep , for 'ti ;
yourself. To the successor of Sobieski
: nay ho soon reign at Warsaw. "
"I send it back , your majesty. T (
; he son of Theodore ; may he yet rul (
; ho realm his father won. "
"Dinner is served , " interposed the
waiter.
'it was a meal of the sort for whicl :
Dolly's coffee house had fame , and the
lew friends failed not in devotion to the
smoking dishes. The plates removed
; hey ordered pipes and port. His majes-
y , flushed with generous drinking , felt
n his waistcoat pocket and withdrew an
iinpty hand. Ho turned to the at-
.endant.
'You have served a king right roy-
illy , and shall have a royal fee. Youi
lame ? "
"Wilkinssire. "
" 'Twill remain in memory. To-mor-
ow expect a parchment creating you
: night of Ajaccio. " '
"While , in present payment , " laughed
he count , "take this bright English
; rown of silver. 'Tis the last of many. "
"My humble thanks to both. And
lere's your bill. "
"I have a score , " replied Frederick ,
'to which direct the manager to add
his item. So , Wilkins , adieu until the
norn. "
The three entered the public room , the
raiter hastening ahead to confer with
, burly man behind the bar. The latter
xclaimed :
"Look ye , Mister King , or whatever
ou call yourself ! I claim good coin for
; oed fare. Too much yon are my debtor
tow. "
"My purse is empty , but we will not
larley/ ' answered Frederick , drawing a
nassive ring from his finger. "Here is
ho signet of my dominion of Corsica.
leave it in pawn till I come again.
) oes it satisfy your clamor ? "
' "Twill do " the
, growled manager ,
reigning the jewel in his hand.
At the door Poniatowski and the pre-
jnder halted. The fog had risen. Frost
lied the air. The stars shone undim-
led. It was a gloriotis English winter's
iglit.
"I go this way , ' ' spoke the count ,
ointing down the street.
"I the other , ' ' responded his majesty.
Farewell and better fortune. "
Slowly the old man walked a few rods
ntil he reached a door opening on the
ave. He stopped , glanced at the brill-
mt heavens , sighed and went in.
At early dawn a passing watchman
ried :
' 'Five o' the clock on New Year's morn ,
rod save the king ! "
Yes , God save the king , for on a hum-
le cot in his cheerless upper chamber
B lies stark and stiffening , a bullet
irough his brain , slain by his own hand.
