earth to turn beneath us. AS Japan re-

From Asia, crossing the Caspian sea,
we passed over Russia, visiting in turn
Moscow and st. Petersburg.
Still the great globe rolled steadily
beneath, and still we kept the sun with
us. Now Germany appeared, and now
Italy, and then France and England, as
we shifted our position, first north, then
south, in order to give all the world an
opportunity to see that its warriors had
returned victorious from their far con-
quest. And in each country as it passed
beneath our feet we left some Of the
our adventures.
At length the Atlantic had rolled
away under us and we saw the spires
Of the new New York.
The news of our coming had been
flashed ahead from Europe, and our
countrymen were prepared to welcome
us. We had originally started, it will
be remembered, at midnight, and now
accin as we approached the new capital
of the world the curtain Of night was
just beginning to be drawn over it. But

through these they were aware Of our
approach.
Again the air was filled with burst

cannon and with volleying cheers,

Through all this terrible contest the
emperor of the Martians had remained
standing upon his throne, gazing at the
awful spectacle, and not moving from
the spot. Neither he nor the frightened
women gathered upon the steps of the
throne had been injured by the disin-
tcgrators. Their immunity was due to
the fact that the position and elevation
of the throne were such that it was not
within the range of fire of the electrical
ships which had poured their vibratory
discharges through the windows, and
we inside had only directed our fire to-
ward the warriors who had attacked us.
Now that the struggle was over we
turned our attention to Alma. Fortu-
nately the girl had not been seriously
injured, and she was quickly restored to
consciousness. Had she been killed we
would have been practically helpless in
attempting further negotiations, be-
cause the knowledge which we had ao-
quired of the language of the Martians
from the prisoner captured on the gold
en- asteroid was not sufficient to meet
the requirements of the occasion.

liberation with which Shaftar acted on
July and in the matter Of forcing

ton that the American commander had
lost his nerve the night Of July and
wanted to retreat. At Camp Wikof it
was the impersonal and convenient

Skaters name was not mentioned by

declared that he himself had been

attack General Sumner was in the lines
of his own regiment, the Sixth, discuss

the repulse Of the enemy showed that
the line could be held the order was
not given, That discussion was some
