along the west wall, and il Is near the
castle. Just as soon as the gang en-
ters that gate Wen crawl up and get
rid Of the fellow who stands watch"
Il was so dark that they could barely
see the roadway, and they found 1t nee
essary to cease talking as they skunk
along beside the wall. Occasionally
they paused 70 listen, fearing that they
might draw too close upon the men
who had gone before. At last they
came to a big gate and halted.
as this the gateY whispered An
euish.
"sh! Yes; I'm quite sure. We are
undoubtedly near the castle, Judging
by the distance we have come. Let US
cross the road and lie directly opposite.
Be carefulw
Like panthers they stole across the
road and down a short grassy embank-
nent. At Anguish's suggestion Lorry
wrapped his handkerchief tightly about
the heavy end Of his cane, preparing In
that way to deaden the sound Of the
blow that was TO fail upon the Vienna
mans head. Then they threw aside
their hats. buttoned their coats tightly
and sank down to walt. with bound
ing hearts and tingllng nerves, the ar
rival Of the abductors, mutely praying
that they were at the right gate.

er Consciousness"
All this was done In moments tme'
and the two trackers were headed Tor
the entrance. The gate was atar two
or three feet. With turbulent hearts
they stole through.
Keep along the wall" whispered
Iorry. "and trust to luck. The castle
Is to the left"
without hesitation they crept over
the noiseless grass close beside the
wall. Directly they heard sounds near
at hand. The abductors were binding
and chloroforming the guard at the ar
Dor. After waiting for some moments
they heard the party glide away In the
darkness and followed. The body OF
the guard was lying just outside the
mouth of the arbor, and the odor OF
chloroform was almost overpowering.
Once inside the long arbor, the Ameri-
cans moved slowly and with greater
caution. There was a dim light In a
basement window ahead. Toward the
front of the castle and in the second
story A faint glow came from another
window. They guessed 1t to be from
the princess room or from that OF the
countess.
At last they saw four figures steal
past the dim basement light. One OF
them halted near the window and three
crept away In the darkness. Presently
one Of them returned, and all activity
was at an end for the time being. How
near II was to o'clock the watchers
could not tell. They only knew that
they were within twenty-five feet of
Geddos and Ostrom and that they
would not have long TO walt.
Soon a bright little blaze Of light
crossed the basement opening. Then
II returned, crossing a second time and
a third All was still again. The soft
shuttle Of a foot the rustic OF arbor
vines, and the form Of man crawled
un TO the window. With inconceivable
stealth and carefuness 1t glided
through the aperture, followed by a
companion.
Lorry and Anguish were at the open
ing a second or two later, lying fat OH
their stomachs and listening for sounds
from within. The dim light was still
there, the window was open and there
was sound of whispering. Lorry
raised his head and peered through,
taking calculations while the light
made It possible. He saw an open door
on the opposite side Of the low room,
with steps beyond leading upward.
Between the window and the door there
were no obstacles. Up those steps
he saw three men creep, the leader
carrying the dim light. The door was
left open, doubtless to afford unim-
peded exit from the building in case
of emergency. Harry Anguish touched
Lorry's arm.
81 took the two pistols from that
Vienna man ont there. We may need
them. Here is one for yourself. Go
first, Lorry," he whispered.
Lorry stuck the revolver In his coat
pocket and gently slid through the win
dow to the floor below. His friend fol
lowed, and they paused to listen. TAX.

500 PASS EXAMINATION
Rock Island Employees of Kansas Divi-
sion Now Know the Company Rules.

The examination of all the Rock Is
land employees of the Kansas division
of the Rock Island on the new book of
rules and regulations has been COM
pleted.
The examination included all train
men, engine men, yard men, agents
and operators. There were upwards of
500 men who took the examination.
The new book of rules is practically
the embodiment of the standard code
of rules.
Some of the employees were required
to take the examination twice and a
few even three times. 1t was not de-
sired to release any of the men if pos
sible for failing to pass the examina-
ton. What was wanted was that each
employe should thoroughly familiarize
himself with the rules and he was
given another opportunity to study his
rule book if he failed to pass the first
examination.
The board of examiners on the Kan
sas division consisted of w. o. Nevill,
P. S. Barnes and S. Beidleman.
