decided to still keep secret her relationship

| 10 Ut. AuGtklftt.
Count Matthias wished to remain unknown
until the accomplishment of his work. But
it was enough that Pierre whom he had
made his son, was the betrothed of Sava
Sandorf for signs of rejoicing to be shown
on all sides-in the Stadthaus as well as in
the town of Artenak.
We may judge what were Madame
Batho.y's feelings when Sava was given
back to her after so many trials And Sava
herself soon recovered her health-a few
days of happiness were sufficient for her
complete establishment
That Point Pescade had risked his
life there could be no doubt. But as he
seemed to think it quite natural thing to
do there was no possibility Of rewarding
him-eXcept with few simple words.
Pierre Bathory had clasped him to his
breast, and the doctor had given him such
a look of gratitude that he would hear of
no other recompense. According to his
custom he gave the whole credit OF the adj
venture to Cape Matifou.
He is the man that should be thanked"
he said. He did it all! If old Cape had
not been so clever with that pole l should
never have been able to jump into Sida
Hazam's house, and Sava Sandorf would
have been killed by her fall if Cape Matfou
| had not been below to receive her in his
| armS!''
Look here! Look here!' answered Cape
Matifou. You are going too far, and the
! idea Of"
''Be quiet!' continued Pescade. 81 am
not strong enough to receive compliments
of that calibre, while YOU. Come, let US
look after the garden!''
And Cape Matifou held his peace, and
returned to his pleasant villa. and finally
accepted the fluctuations that were thI ust
upon him $50 as not to diS0blge his little
| PeScade."
1t was arranged that the wedding OF
| Pierre and Sava should take place on the
9th of December. When Pierre was Sava's
husband he could claim his wife's rights in
| the inheritance of Count SandOrf. Madame
TOronthals letter left no doubt as to the
girls birth, and if necessary they could OBJ
tain formal statement from the banker.
And this statement would be obtained in
time, for Sava had not yet reached the age
at which she would enter into her rights.
She would not be Is until six months later.
1t should be added that in the fifteen
years a political change had taken place
favorable to the Hungarian question. and
this had considerably modified the situation
| particularly with regard to the conspiracy
| of Trieste
1t was not intended to come to any de-
cision as to the fate of Carpena and TOron-
thai until Sarcany had joined them in the
classmates of Antekirrta. Then, and not
till then, would the work of justice be COM
pleted.
But while the doctor was still scheming
to attain his object, it was absolutely neces-
sary that he should provide for the safety
of the colony. His agents in the Cyrenaic

Senousist movement was attaining great
Importance, particularly in the vlayet Of
Ben Ghazi, which is that nearest to the
island. Special messengers were continually
on the move to the minor chiefs of the
| province from Jerhboub. 1.-The new pole of
| the 1slamic world. as DR.. DuYeyrier calls
| It. the metropolitan Mecca where lived Sldl
| Mohammed El-Mahedi, grand master of the
| order: and as The SenouSistS are the worthy
| descendants OF the old Barbarry pirates and
| bear mortal hate to everything European,
| the doctor had to take steps to be very care
| fully on his guard.
| In fact, is it not to the Senousists that we
| can attribute the massacres in African
neurology during the last twenty years?
| The sanguinary brotherhood has put in
practice the Senoustic doctrines against our
explorers, and we have seen Beurman
killed at Kanem in 1868, Won der Decken
and his companions on the DjOuba river in
1865, Madame AleXine Time and her peo-
pie in Wady Abediouch in 1865, Dournaux-
| Dupeire and Joubert at the wells of In
Azhar in 1874. Fathers Paulmier BOuchard
and Menoret beyond the In-Calah in 1876.

On this subject the doctor often talked
with Pierre Bathory, Luigi Ferrato, the
captains of the flotilla, the chiefs of the
MALTA and the principal notables of the
| island. Could Anterkirtta resist an attack
| from the pirates? Yes, doubtless. although
| the Notifications were not complete. but on
| condition that the number of asSailants was
| not too great. On the other hand, had the
Senouists any interest i'll capturing it?
Yes. for it commanded all the gulf of Sidra,
which formed the cost of Tripoli and the
Cyrenaic.
1t will not have been forgotten that south
| west of Antekirtta. at a distance of some
two miles, there lay the islet of Kencraf.
| This iSlet, which there was no time to for
tify, would constitute a serious danger if
a hostile fotla made it its base of opera

caution to mine it extensively. And now
terrible explosive agent filled the fougasses
amid its rocks. 1t would suffice for an
electric spark to be sent through the cable
from Antekirtta. and the island of Kencraf
would be annihilated with everything that
| was on it.
With regard to the other defences Of the
island this is what had been done. The
banking batteries had been completed. and
only waited for the militia assigned to them
to move to their stations The fortress on
the central cone was ready with its long
| range pieces. Numerous torpedoes had
been sunk in the channel and defended the
entrance to the harbOr. The Ferrato and
three Electrics were ready for all eventual
tiles either in awaiting the attack or adj
vancing on hostile dotilla.
But in the southwest of the island there
was vulnerable spot. A landing might
take place there sheltered from the guns of
the fortress. There was the danger. and
it might be too late to become sufficiently
| advanced with the works of defence.
After all, was it quite certain that the
Senousists intended to attack Antekirtta?
1t was big affair." dangerous expedition
which would require a good deal of mate
rial. Luigi still doubted, and he said so one
day while the doctor and Pierre were in
specting the Notifications.
THAT is not my opinion" said the doc
| tor. ''Antekirtta is rich; it commands the
| Syrtic sea. and those are sufficient reasons
for the Senousists sooner or later to at
tack it,"
Nothing can be more certain" added
Pierre, land it is an eventuality against
which we must be prepared"
But what makes me fear an immediate
attack is that Sarcany is one of the brother
hood of these Khouans and know that he
has always been in their service as an agent
