INSPIRATION.

4 flash of thought swift whispering to the soul,
A strange. glad thrill of something newly told
A wonder, delight as when some sweet
And beautcous flower its petals doth unfold
A quick indrawing of the startled breath.
A glamour such as words can never tell
A blissful trance, vision outlined clear,
And Poesy hath wove her magic spell

and the difficulty of getting out of it.
He looked UP, saw the bearded man
and supposed he was the investigating
magistrate.
When the door was closed and the
attendant out of hearing, Monroe tore
the beard from his face.
Hello, old fellow! Don't you know
meg" he asked.
Bob Monroew exclaimed Wallace.
Il did not think-but this Disguise
what does it mean:"
'"They do not allow outsiders to visit
prisoners who are charged with muir
der till after the investigation. But a
very kind officer of police came to me
this morning and put me on to scheme
to get you out of here. 1t seems that
the police are determined to fasten this
crime OH you. no matter who did it..
The idea is that if you are fortunate
enough to show proof at the investiga-
ton that you perhaps did not do it they
will murder You in the Conciergere be-
fore the trial. Poison can be put in
your food"
Heavens! Do they do such things
in Paris?"
"Queer things happen in Paris. That
is no worse than many l have known.
Now the thing is to get OUT
"Out! You mean to escape from the
Palais de Justice?"
Certainly. Would you remain here
and be killed:"
"But l want to establish my inno-
cence. What will become of me if
escape and SO appear to be guilty:"
"They will not give you chance to
prove your innocence. They will kill
you. IT you are out. you can employ
| detectives and thus run down the
real murderer"
"But I can't. have no money. Did
you not know that my uncle died and
left me nothing? am as poor as any
crossing sweeper"
"Never mind. Come with me, and
will furnish the money to ferret out
the crime and also to start you again
to prosperity. You are young. and can
make your way"
Anu yOO Aca4y luluk Luey luteQO TO
kill me?"
IF one of the police say so, do not
doubt it. He must have been friend
An enemy would simply let you 20 to
your execution"
To the cool. disinterested mind there
were plenty of flaws in this reasoning.
but to these two, hot with fear and in
dignation. with theawful realities maxi
ing more vivid the dread possibilities.
there was nothing unreasonable in It
at all.
Buckford Wallace loved life better
than he did the popular idea of Justice
in France.
At % one takes almost any chance.
It did not look to either of them dis.
honorable to effect this escape, know.
ing the prisoner to be innocent and vet
in danger.
am not sure it was dishonorable.
I am sure that under the same cir
cumstances would have done the
same thing-provided I had the skin
and courage.
The exchange of disguise was eff.
fected. Wallace staggered from the
cell and fell. The footman tried to
raise him. The attendant came. and
the unconscious man was carried tn
the rafting carriage.

1t will be an easy matter for YOU 10
have the carriage of the prince at YOU
service in an hour.
My plan is this: You, monsieur, will
need two DISCUSSES. You will need
footman; take your own. You will
then need disguise exactly like th |
livery Worn by your footman.
you will also need disguise includ
ing heavy whiskers and false hair.
Having acquired these, you go ID
the equipage Of the prince to The
house Of the magistrate, NJ. Seneca
You will present this card, which
was fortunate enough to obtain, bear
ing the name Of Bosso Duvally. You
see it bears the name simply and 10
hint of his position. 1t is used perhaps
in his gallantries in Paris. NJ. Seneca
will undoubtedly be delighted at The
visit. He will do anything for The
prince. Tell him any story you male
up, keeping to the facts have stated
ASK him for an order admitting you to
the Jail to see NJ. Wallace privatel!
He will give it to you to favor thsI
prince.
Having received the order, drive 10

You will be admitted to the cell of The

him to the waiting carriage. The coach
man, who will be posted beforehand
Will take you to place where th
prisoner can be hidden among friend
till he can be got out Of Paris. D
the plan clear to you, monsieur"
1T is bold one. I doubt if it sue
ceeds. Prisoners cannot be taken ot
OF the Palais de Justice at WILL
1.-THE Palais de Justice is as easlFl
robbed of its victims as any other ten
pie of oppression. am sure the ph

Paris police"
Monroe's heart beat rapidly. He hsa
never INDUCED in pranks that involva
breaking laws. But here was cas
which appealed to his sense Of juste
and fair play. If he could rescue By
young countryman, then there would R

real murderer, and clear Wallace frop

He sent for the papers Of the hs

"That is the leather jacket the pris-

The leather jacket was handed to the
magistrate. He examined it with more
than ordinary curiosity. 1t was the

He ripped open the lump. 1t proved

He was about to leave when COM

police hurricdly entered and bawled
out in excited and nervous tones to NJ.
SENEGAL and the chief of detectives:

hopeless dismay, fell upon the group.
