GUATEMALA GRATEFUL.
Appreciative Of the Friendly Services
of This Government.

<APP1ecidtlVe OIL the FRIENDLY SERVICES
of This Government.
The President has received the following
spontaneous expression of thanks from the
president Of Guatemala:
II have the honor to address your excel
lency for the purpose of expressing, in the
name of my country and in my own, the
highest gratitude for the friendly and
brotherly course followed by your excel
lency on an occasion of supreme Importance
in Guatemala. when disturbance of the
peace was contemplated in connection with
the recent political events in Central Amer
lea.
THE noble offices of your excellency
have certainly had much to do with the
peace arrangement. and I consider 1t my
duty to state, as 1 hereby do, how highly
they are appreciated by the people and
their government of Guatemala, all the
more as the invaluable intercession of the
worthy chief magistrate of the United
States of America diSintereSted and
cordial, and has. in my eyes, the two-fold
merit of being the best and trueSt express
sion of the sentiments of generous sym
pathy with which we have ever been ia
Vored by the polished American nation, and
at present, by its llustriouS chief the most
excellent Mr.. Roosevelt.
BE pleased to accept with the above ex-
pressed sentiments the special and per-
sonal assurances of distinguished consider
alton with which l am ETC.
The Presidents response to this letter
was as follows: 1885,
Il have received the letter which you did
me the honor to address me on the 10th
ult1mo, expressive of the appreciation of
the government and people of Guatemala
at the course of the government of the
United States in connection with the re-
cent events In Central America. The gov

with impartial friendship, it's good offices
In the interests of peace and harmony
among them; and it is highly gratifying to
me that the efforts of this government
for the friendly adjustment of the recent
differences in Central America receive so
cordial a recognition from your excelency.
wishing for yourself and for the govern
ment and people of Guatemala abundant
prosperity and happiness. l avail myself
or this opportunity to offer to your excel
lency the assurances of my distinguished
consideration"

of laughter, stretching his arms up over his
head as if he saw the struggle before him
and gloried in it.
Like old times, by Jovev' he cried AYE,
it's to be game! A game worth playing.
Come, come. gentlemen, have you all lost
your last dear relative on earth? Buck up,
buck up!' He clapped Won Altdorf upon the
shoulder gaily.
Come, colonel" said he you In the
mourning party? Faith. it's a funeral
Come. have two sat at our ease before
the fire all our lives that we should turn
pale and groan over a danger? Leave that
to our friend the Birthday Knight and the
light o society here. What have we fought
and schemed and plotted for all our lives,
colonel. If we're to lie down at the first
hint of difficulty? Think of it,! A game to
play! We've played before, eh, colonel?
Man. man. doesn't it make your blood tin
gle? Where's your sprit?''
He stuck the old brlar pipe In one corner
of his mouth and puffed great clouds from
1t. His face beamed through the smoke.
His eyes were wide and joyous I'd never
seen them quite the same.
And, as l live. there was Won Altdorf on
his feet, too. Juggling at his griZzled mus
tache as was his way when excited. His
eyes twinkled and he put out his hands
upon young Mallory's shoulders and shook
him gently.
AYE" said he. AYE, I've fought and
schemed a bit in my time and I've drop
of blood left to jump on occasion. Aye,
we've played before. We two. / wish we'd
played together, for by my faith in God
you're a man after my own heart. Let
Karl come If he likes! Saints above! His
wife shan't see him till she's able; If have
to carry him back to Novodnia under my

Old Mackenzie scowled and twisted in
his chair.
That's all very well, we two bloodthirsty
conspeerators," said he. But what's to
be done? When we're through with your
heroics maybe yen condescend to look at
the danger we're in
AS for me. 1 held sulky silence. I had
not relished being called light of society.
Mallory dropped into a chair and shook
his head at the Scotsman with a humorous
sigh.

said he. though I'm not denying that
you've sense in your head And now to

shall we have half dozen to deal with?"

When did you receive the message say
ing that he'd left Novodnia 2" he asked.
IAN hour ago." said Won Altdorf TT

If he comes through without stopping
and that's what he'll do right enough-he
will be here in three days travel. Today
Tuesday, isn't it? He started yesterday
afternoon He should reach Paris Thurs
day. He'll probably come at once to my
apartment in the Avenue de PObservatoire.
We've still two days to make ready, you
sees
1T wouldn't do, 1 suppose" suggested
Mallory, Ito tell him that the princess has
gone back to America? He wouldn't be-
lieve it, eh?''
Won Altdorf shook his head.
That wouldn't do at all-hed know
better He's had semi-weekly reports right
along from Mackenzie. He knows she's
here in MacKenzie's care. Besides, If he
were really convinced that she'd gone to
America, upon my word l belieye he'd be
prince When he sets his mind upon a
thing he's apt to get it,
He won't get this said young Mallory
shortly, and his teeth, shut again with a
click. "Ah, well, 1 see nothing for it but
simply to refuse to let him see her, to tell
him she's in too dangerous a state to risk
a shock. It's poor excuse and bold
one but, curse 1t, he's got to swallow what
we've a mind to tell him Perhaps some
better plan will turn up meanwhile. We
must trust something to the cards as they re
dealt Egad. we might do worse than
to kidnap him and ship him back to No

"Oh, he'll come alone" said Won Altdorf.
Never you fear-though, for all that, IT
wouldn't surprise me If half a dozen should
follow to spy out what he's doing"
And they'll be-" Queried Mallory

Won Altdorf struck his knee a resounding

Shall love wreck a state? Is there no such

Won Altdorf threw up his hands.

hands. We can't see beyond our present
business. There might be a divorce ar
ranged-even against the princes will.
Madame might be brought to see the ne

might be ennobled-though that's almost
out of the question. Don't worry us, man.
