CHAPTER XIX-Continued.

I think IL was not till this moment, rot
till he saw Won Altdorfs transformed face,
that he realized what the nights work
meant to himself, that rescuing the prin-
cess but brought her back to another man,
that she was lost to him utterly and for
ever; that once she was safe again he
might not have even the satisfaction of
working and fighting for her I think that
the past week of desperate planning and
working had quite driven his own plight

ergy TO the one fierce struggle to rescue
the woman he loved, and that it was not

Hotel and adjoining farm of sixty-eight
acres of land, to the plaintiffs and that
$1,000 was paid to bind the bargain. 1t
was agreed to pay the balance of the pur-
chase money within twenty days. but when
the amount was rendered. it is claimed, the
Bobingers refused to accept IL. The suit
was brought for the purpose of compelling
the Bobingers to make the deed of con-
veyance. Within the past two weeks the
property has been leased by the Bobingers
to John ]. Noonan and brother, who are
now in possession. 1t is possible that the
case will be argued at the June term OF

Under a recent decision of the Maryland
court of appeals it is believed that an en-

be adopted. Under the old method the Gus

school age twice in computing the amount
| for each county. by which system the coun-
| ties having the largest colored population
received the most money. The decision re-
| ferred to was given in the case of Robert
| Shriver of Allegany county against the
| controller of the treasury, the court holding
| that 1.-The controller shall apportion the sum
| appropriate for the support of the colored
| schools of the several counties and the city
| of Baltimore in proportion to their respec-
| tive population between the ages of i've

Kennels hands. A sudden gravity came
upon US all at the last. for we knew that
might not meet again. Then the three
of us went quickly out into the wet night:
We turned. presently. from the Boulevard
Raspail into the Boulevard Edgar Quintet,
and walked down It's length under the drip
ping trees. down past the high wall or the
cemetery and so under the railway br1dge
to the Avenue du Maine. and halted before
the mouth of the impasse. 1t lay black
and wet and wholly deserted. Indeed there
was no living thing in sight anywhere save
that across the street and down little
way at the foot of the avenue stood cab
rank. The lamps threw a row of dispiriting
yellow CLEANS across the shining pave
ment.
ct suppose" said Denis, wed best bring
a carriage to the head of the impasse here,
and have it wait 1t wouldn't do to take 1t
clear in?"
Il say take it right away to the door,"
said 1. 1T will sound as if we were ordi-
nary dodgers coming home for the night.
Have the thing turn about ready to make a
dash the moment were out with the prin-
cess. If we're pursued we stand better
chance of getting well away"
Right. Or cried Denis. Ted, you've at
times a surprising head Come along then,
we'll all get into the carriage and ride up
to the door,"
So we went down the street to the miser-
able looking line of vehicles and reused a
cocher who was sleeping peacefully inside
his galerie.
"A IlmpaSSe du Manner we cried, tout
au fond. and wait there till we come out!'
/ don't mind confessing. now when it is
all over and long past, that my heart
jumped bit and my breathing
quickened as we went rafting noisily in
to that long, narrow echoing cul de sac,
pistols in our pockets, swords hidden under
| our long rain coats. and a dark lantern
bullying from the vicinity of Colonel Won
Altdorfs manly bosom. 1t seemed, there
in the chill dripping rain, such an absurd
| thing to be doing in peaceful Paris at this
| end of the nineteenth century,! could not
rid myself of the notion that 1t was all a
| huge joke, a masquerade over which we
| would have great laugh presently. The
| planning of a desperate coup, seated at
| ease amongst lights and warmth and COM
| fort, with friends about one, keen minds
| to offer suggestions. cool heads to weigh
| risks, is such different thing to carrying
| out that coup. silently. grimly. in the dead
| of a cherries night, with death grinnfng
| at ones face through the rain.
The cab halted at the extreme end of the
| impasse and we got out. gave our low-voic-
| ed direction to the cocher-to turn about
