The British Cabinet.

T. P. O'Connor in his London week
ly calls attention to the fact that all
members of the present British cab-
net have been in office nearly seven
years-a tremendous strain on any
body, no matter how robust in health
or ardent in ambition. Most of thKn,
too, are so well off that they do not
care for the big salaries they draw.
Curiously enough, Mr.. Chamberlain is
now one of the men to whom the $685.

a consideration. He was worth about
100000 at one time, but he bought

onet in the United States Army.
AS result of the war in the Phil
ippines the armies of the civilized
world may have a new implement OF
warfare. The bayonet now carried by
American soldiers is practically of no
value, and many officers think that
it is simply loading down the soldier
with useless weight to make the
bayonet part of his equipment.
But the bolo used by the Filipinos
has commended itself to many OFF,
GERS as sensible weapon, and on the
recommendation of these officers.
Gen. Crozier, chief of ordinance. has
had made so bolo bayonets, which
have been issued for experimental
purposes. This bolo bayonet has two
cutting edges, like the native weapon,
and is much more formidable than
the present service bayonet. The
more progressive officers advocate
abandoning the bayonet, as they point
out that the day of the bayonet
charge is over and there will be no
more hand-to-hand fighting.
In the South African war, the war
officers made the British officers aban-
don the sword and carry rifles, So
that they might not be distinguished
from their men. the Beers making
special efforts to kill the officers.
The sword was of no practical val
ue and was simply an Insignia to de-
note command. In the next great
war many officers believr there will
be seen neither the sword nor tho
bayonet.

CHAPTER xv.-(Continusd.)
Really it mattered little to her
whether empire or republic ruled in
France; her despotic sway could go on
Just the same, in Orient or Occident,
wherever men with enormous bank
accounts and hearts to break could be
found.
She cared more about breaking the
cool disdain of Mark Merrick and
bringing him to her feet than for the
Orleanist cause.
Merrick did not know what 1t was
all about.
He was soon to learn.
When those men began to close In
like dogs around the quarry at bay,
Merrick discovered, to his intense dis
gust and chagrin, that he was almost
in the center of the disturbance.
OF course, his only thought was of
Constance and his fear lest she should
be injured in case of any rioting or
bomb throwing in the direction of the
heir apparent to the Russian throne.
Have no fear, darling" he said.
steadily. perhaps glad of chance to
address the alarmed girl SO tenderly.
and again thrust his personality be-
tween her shrinking form and danger.
The princess. eagerly watching ev-
cry move saw that the man they had
believed to be the President made no
attempt to fiy-that he showed no
sign of fear, but calmly awaited the
coming of the advancing royalists.
There was something 80 nonchalant
about his manner. 80 unlike the dem
onstrative Frenchman, that the keen
eyed Russian woman had her suspi-
cions aroused.
He acts like man who has ex.
pected just such thing to occur. Mon
Dieu! 1t may be Waterloo for Count
Leon yet. Monsieur Jones is going to
be heard from before the curtain falls
upon the last act"
She ended her soliloquy with a cry,
for her gaze had wandered to the 9TH
er quarter Just in time to see Merrick
send one man headlong to the ground
because he had dared to lay hand
upon Constance. and then placing the
now thoroughly frightened girl behind
him, face the eager crowd with a
weapon in his hand.

CHAPTER XVI.

The men who were opposed to Mer-
rick had seen firearms before; some of
them had doubtless fought through the
bloody Franco-German war under the
banner of Louis Napoleon, and hence
they were hardly to be deferred in
their purpose by the fierce aspect Of
love pilgrim at bay. and leveling a
little pocket revolver.
True, it looked serious enough with
so determined a foeman facing them,
but there was no coward present.
Merrick might have done much more
damage had not luck been against
him.
His intentions were of the best, but
1t was perhaps fortunate in the end
that some one struck his arm Just as
he let fly his first shot, which went
wide of the mark and wounded where
he grimly meant to kill.
Constance shrieked as she saw them
bear down upon her lover; when his
weapon was torn from his hand in
the scufle he still struck out man
fully. and gave a warm welcome to
those who closed in.
1t was of short duration, Of course.
since Mark did not possess the pow
ers of gladiator. and those who
engaged him were seven to his one.
Painting for breath, with his coat
half ripped from his back, his hat lost
and hair disheveled, while blood
marked several scratches upon his
face, he finally ceased to struggle.
Count Leon saw that thus far his
game, SO boldly wrought, had met with
con7plete success.
Jones was still missing, and by this
time the doughty count had about
come to the conclusion that 1t had all
been a false alarm with reference to
the ability of the wonderful Yankee to
interfere with their grand scheme.
The natural pride that causes man
to Duff out and strut like king when
his plans are successful was again
taking hold upon the African explorer.
An exodus at once began.
There was no attempt Of any kind
made to prevent the triple abduction.
The whole army of Monaco's prince
ling could not have stayed these des-
perate cavaliers, and surely it did not
behoove any of the cosmopolitan
guests of Monte Carlo to interfere at
the risk of their lives.
the gardens again; the buzz of eager
conversation arose. very like the drone
of a great hive of bees, and many
eyes were glued upon the star-lit har-
Dor, where the rocky promontory OF
Mentone ran like a great scimetar into
the sea.
Meanwhile, the last scene in the
exciting drama was being enacted be-
low.
Jones had p.ied his time, knowing
that he held the trumps with which to
sweep the board. Some men take the
keenest satisfaction in allowing mat
ters to almost reach a victory for the
opposing forces ere showing an in
vincible hand.
Merrick was grinding his teeth in
anger because he found himself un-
able to assist Constance down the
