An Incident of the
French Revolution
By MARTHA V. MONROE
Antoine le Beouf was a leader ot
one of the arrondlssements into which
Paris la divided, and when the great
revolution came on so far aa his sway
extended it waa absolute. Jean Millet
was a leader, too. but a Conservative.
The revolution waa like a roaring
stream, that gathered power as It aped
on. Time came when those who had
been instrumental in starting it lost
their beads by trying to control it
Millet went Into It hoping to reorgan
ise tbe existing government Before
It finished Its mad course Its object
(was to get rid of tbe existing govern
ment and the" class that supported it
toy means of the guillotine.
When order was restored under the
directory. Le Beouf, who bad made
bitter enemies during the period of

All who heard the Judge speak be
lieved his words to be preliminary to a
vengeance upon the . accused. They
supposed that he would In the end ask
Le Beouf if he thought that one who
had sent so many to ' the guillotine
should be spared from the guillotine,
then instruct the Jury that it was their
duty under the law to bring in a ver
dict of guilty. The girl who sustained
her father kcjit her ejes on the judge In
a frightened, rcproncnful look, like the
rest dreading his final words.
"This man Millet, who Was trying to
stem the butchery of yourself and oth
ers, kept himself out of your way. You
tried to get your hands on him by tfpen
means, but. falling, tried treachery.
You sent for him on the ground that
you wished to form a union between
the Conscyvatlves and the Radicals and
desired htm as a representative man of
the Conservatives to Join with you to
mal:e the revolution less bloody. Sus
peelliiK your design, he sent a man to
mept you In a dark court, where you
would, not recognize him. He was
soized and hurried away. But when the
light shone on him you saw that it was
you instead of 1 who had been tricked."
The prisoner trembled, but said noth
ing "And now, Antoine le Beouf, you who
ou the bench not the Judicial bench,
the bench of the revolution sent so
many innocent persons to the guillo
tine, what do you think that 1. a Judge
regularly appointed by the state, should
do in your case?"
Tbe prisoner bowed his head without
reply, but his daughter In a trembling
voice said, "Yon should be merciful. M
le Judge."
"No. mademoiselle, not merciful.

J A HISTORIC BIBLE.
It Is Bound In Red Leather and Used
In the Supreme Court.
It is a tiny little book, only five and
a half inches long and three and a half
inches wide. It is bound in bright red
morocco leather, with the word "Bible
printed in diminutive gold letters ou
the back. But one does not see that,
red morocco cover unless he removes
the little black leather slip which pro
tects it. Long, long ago the little red
Bible began to show wear, and then
the black leather slip was made to
protect It so long ago. in fact, that fif
teen of those covers, innde to protect
the venerated tyttle volume, were worn
but lu the service.
It is without doubt one of the oldest
Bibles, if not the very oldest Bible,
connected with the government and
is certainly the most historical. It is
the book upon which since 1800 every
cltfef justice with the single exception
of Chief Justice Chase and every
ineniber of the supreme court has
taken the oath of allegiance when no
copting hi'-! appointment to our highest
tribunal. More than th:it. every at
torney who lias practiced before the
supremo court since that date. 1S0O,
has pledged his allegiance over the
little volume-all, Willi one exception
also, and that exception was Daniel
Webster.
It is toll! even yet of the supreme
court of that day that Mr. Webster's
fame ns an orator had so preceded him
that on the occasion when he came to
argue his first case before the court

ness to hear the great speaker, forgot
to administer the oath.
