vestigate when the all-powerful Baron
Peterhoff brought in political prisoners
with orders to hold them securely.
Would mein herr be pleased to go
with him to his Office, where he could
be more comfortable, and there await
the coming of the baron, who would
with word set him free?
But mein herr was obstinate
The baron must come to him. AS
Paul and Silas, in days of yore, made
the governor unbend his dignity and
come to plead with them to go away,
so Charlie meant to keep hold OF his
advantage.
So the commandant went away.
Charlie was still smoking, with one
of the keepers for company, and the
door Of his cell wide open, when voices
were heard in the corridor.
Then entered the baron.
The great man looked both disturbed
and amused. He had heard the amaz-
ing story of the commandant, and
sifted the wheat from the chaff, so that
he had pretty fair idea as to the
truth.
He marched straight up to Charlie
and stretched out his hand.
my most abject apologies, my dear
boy for what has happened. 1t was a
miserable mistake, on my part. 1 trust
you will forgive me-" he said
Charlie saw he was sincere, and as
his indignation passed away he unbent
his dignity.
Then you know it was Miss Airline
Brand, and not the Countess Isolde,
whom I assisted into a carriage at
the Steen?" he asked, eagerly, deter
mined to put his fears to the test.
Eyes; she has assured me she never
saw you, save at a distance" returned
the baron.
Then it is all right. Now l am
ready to leave here and go out with
you, baron" he said, smiling.
ITO breakfast with me, I hope"
Charlie hesitated.
True, he anticipated more or less
pleasure in his coming interview with
Airline. There would be much to hear,
and some surprising things to tell on
his part.
But these would keep little longer;
besides, 1t is sometimes exceedingly
pleasant; to anticipate feast.
He had something which he wished
to relate TO the baron, seeking in re-
turn his advice and material aid.
Whenever men went to the desperate
length of contemplating crime, in order
to secure wealth, as the so-called Capt.
Brand and his confreres had certainly

style, as Decame man of his immense
means.
And over the elaborate breakfast
Charlie found chance to spin his
little story, the baron proving greatly
interested, as the sparkle in his eye at
tested.
He could read Charles secret as
easily as though the other carried the
story on his brow.
you have done excellently, Charlie,
my boy" he said, finally; "but 1t is
just as well you ask my assistance in
unmasking this unholy fraud. He
and his unprincipled accomplices
might be too much for you. Depend
upon it, shall tear the mask from his
face. and that right speedily"

We sometimes hear that the French
language has less vitality than some
others, and it is in particular pointed
out to what an extent it is giving
way to English and German, says the
London News. Some figures just pub
lished do not, however, bear out this,
in the case, at any rate, of Switzer-
land, where French, German and
Italian are all spoken. In 1888 the num-
Der of persons speaking German in
the Helvetian republic was 2,083,097;
those speaking French 634,613, ana
those speaking Italian, 155, 130. At the
recent census 1t was found that the
position had changed considerably.
There are now. according to the ON
cial figures, 2,319,105 persons whose
language is German, 1920 who
speak French, and 222,247 who use
the language of Dante. Certain can
tons appear In particular to be giving
up the use of German. In Neufchatel,
where formerly $4,000 persons spoke
that tongue. there are now only 1900.

THE MURDER OF CONSUL MAeELssEN.

A war with Turkey would cost too much 1t would
involve an expensive disturbance in political Europe
Besides Turkey cannot afford to war over little
sum of $4,000 or 100000 long she can give
her note for the amount pay interest on it semi
ally.
Uncle Sam cannot afford go to war with Turkey
He would gain nothing by it except that foreign and 40
nestle respect which all countries which exercise care
for the rights of their gain He will ask Turkey
in polite and firm manner for damages, and Turkey
will pay them or promise to pay them principally be-
cause the powers of Europe will tell the Sultan to pay
them and that viii close the incident.
The powers more interested in the affair. from
standpoint of possible war; than Turkey is The Sultan
knows that Europe afford to hear the bechng OF
Yankee cannons Dardanelles in any other Euro
pean or western Asiatic waters and the Sultan also
knows that America cannot afford to waste any amnu
milton in section of the world from which she IS self
excluded by her Monroe Doctrine Turkey knows that
the case is manestly diplomatic and that in that
art she is inferior to country in the world.
The most significant thing is the promptness Win
which President Roosevelt directed the American squad
ron in European proceed to Beirut to be in
readiness to support any demands that be made upon
Turkey for the punishment of the assassin of Vice Con-
sui Magelssen damages for his relatives 1t sig
nie that United States is beginning stronger policy

abroad For century the United States justly or un
Justly had the reputation both at home and in foreign
countries of not being sufficiently positive definite in
the assertion of the the rights of her cit
zens in foreign countries sacred and that those
rights extended to property well to the person
of such citizen If there any justification for this
charge against Uncle SAM since the LIE Costa incident
with Austria promptness with which President Roose
welt ordered Rear Admiral Cottons squadron to Beirut
removes it.
There is no excitement for there will be no
war 1t is possible that when the entire truth is known
the government of Turkey will found to be in way
responsible for the vice consul except that
failed to preserve that order in its subject territory
that would insure protection the agents of foreign
tons assigned to her commercial under the guar
anty that their lives their property and their liberty
would be protected and defended.
1t is possible that Magelssen murdered by revo-

facts of the murder may expected And until then
there win be no real for excitement for
