ables pointed out.
At the time Jones and his friend
descended upon Monte Carlo, the IA
nous place was not at the height of
its season.
The heaviest plungers would como
a month or so later; but really there
is never time when the tables are in
full operation that the scene Is not
deeply exciting.
Jones loomed above the horizon
very humbly.
He came not as conaueror, pre-
coded by blaring trumpets, and her
aids announcing his rank as the de-
fender of the faithful, and sworn
enemy to trusts. 5Nt
On the contrary, he sauntered into
the gaudily Illuminated rooms one
night, with all the earmarks of an
ordinary tourist, DESTROYS of seeing
what was going on in this palace
whose fame had reached even beyond
the sea, and not averse to venturing
a small stake when his courage be-
came screwed up to the proper pitch.
Merrick had never seen the place
and was of course doubly curious.
He saw many people who were
known to fame, some OF them tempt
ing the tickle goddess.
And there were others whom Mer-
rick recognized with something be-
sides indifference.
Some men. having the eye of the
populace, do not sup with humility.
And Villebois, being a Frenchman,
had all the love of display and admira-
ton that usually characterizes those
good people even more than the rest
of mankind.
The Russian giant did not present
a very admirable appearance, since
his scratched face showed the marks
of his adventure on the occasion OF
his sudden departure from the Nice
train, at the time he endeavored to en-
ter the carriage occupied by the man
who carried the coveted trophy.
It was easy to guess why they were
here.
There would be pickings for any
one with the holiness to follow Jones'
every lead.
Then there was the princess, who
had never looked more fascinating in
all her life.
Merrick smiled when he saw his old
bachelor friend engaged in converse
ton WIN the princess.
Jones had doubtless seen some dan
gerous episodes in his career, but he
was in the greatest peril when he
stood SO close to the princess that he
inhaled the intoxicating perfume OF
her presence, and came under the
witehery OF her smile.

Jones led the way to his boat.
The crew knew something strange

no orders, and they were feeling too

To conceal hh real feelings. of
which false majesty made him
ashamed, Merrick assumed a gayety

girl. who would rather have seen him
serious, since then she might have
known he was wrestling with his
love.
Merrick and Jones saw Constance
to her hotel.
After all 1t was a queer freak OF
fortune that placed me on board the
yacht just at the proper time to lend
assistance" said Merrick, seemingly
careless.
"A very fortunate bit of chance for

For a minute neither spoke, and the
uncertainty grew apace like gathering
