Not often in this worlds story has a
bride been more resolutely unhappy dur
ing the few hours of freedom before her
wedding than was Ermyntrude that after
noon. The unavailing protestations of
the thoroughly alarmed Julie were not
soothing.
You will not act in such haste
nilddi?" cried the maid in great distress.
"Whv not insist that the Prince content

Countess.

was true to her caste, and resisted the
temptation. After all was said and done,
she, the Prince, Lord Valletort and her
brother seemed to be more or less the
victims of circumstances. Prince Boris
had refused to invite Madame Schenck to
Bannofka that evening because he too
disliked the manner of their contem-
plated union and forebore publishing the
fact to the larger circle outside the palace
That, at least, was how she read his curt
refusal, and she was partly right.
So perturbed was she that when the
time came to dress for the ceremony she
selected travelling costume of black
cloth

Ermyntrude cared not jot. This was
not a marriage. 1t was bargain, a
price demanded for the lives of those

thankful But her real marriage, if ever

ceremony took care to be numerous and
we'll supplied with lights; nor were they
too anxious to enter the gloomy galleries
or examine the ruined chambers of the
neighboring castle, even if such precau-
tons were deemed necessary.
Seldom has British born maiden of high
degree made such strange preparations
for her wedding as those carried out by
Lady Ermyntrude Grandson. To save
her father and brother from deadly peril
she would fulfil her compact to the letter.
They must be set at liberty Immediately;
they all must be free to depart for Eng
land at the first possible moment; and if
ever she became Princess Melnikoff in
other than name it must be of her own
unfettered volition. These conditions
were unalterable The Prince had
plighted his word to obey them She
knew that her only danger lay in the
interval between the marriage and the
arrival nGI relatives.
To make that interval as short as pos
sib1e, to protect herself in the meantime,
were primary considerations. Among
her brothers belongings, several days
earlier, she had found small loaded re-
volver 1t was easy to construct a
pocket in an underskirt and carry the
weapon concealed She was firmly re-
solved that either she or Prince MelnikOff
should die ere the promise under which
she married him was broken.
The release of the prisoners was an

see her for an instant.
How do you purpose to obtain the
freedom of my father and brother? ."
she asked when he fastened to her.

marriage. When the Prior of Dukhof
signs the register, the book will be car
ried to the monastery, and with it, if
you think fit, letter from you to your
father
THE register alone will be accepted
as evidence by the men who are safe
guarding the prisoners. On its produc-
ton, Lord Valletort and his son will
be sent here at once. Of course your
letter would expedite it.
''At what hour are we to be mar
ried?'
"At nine o'clock"
And when may expect to see
them?"
About eight hours later.

"No. l can only guess the time from

As he turned to leave her, little smile
lit his face for a moment.

get married every day. Will you sup

Not a morsel had she eaten in his COM
pany since the night of the attack.

Halifax dates from the earlier half of

years before that, ana during ths Rev

The Withdrawal of British Garrisons From America

-HHE recent determination Of tho
British government 20 with
draw the regular troops from
the remaining garrisons on
enc American continent has given rise
70 much speculation In the absence
q any more rational explanation Of the
srion it is safe 20 accept the reasons
rhich have been advanced by British
laval experts and others who are quail
fled 10 speak.
The theory that Great Britain has
only now made up her mind 20 accept
unqualifiedly the American definition
Of the Monroe doctrine cannot be re-
garded as absolutely untenable- II it
is the American contention-and 1t
seems TO be-that any spot on the con-
tinent now occupied by a foreign power
cannot be suffered 20 fall into the hands
OF any other alien trespasser it would
be inexcusably extravagant, from an
American standpoint, for Great Britain
10 maintain a costly system Of protec-
ton for something which is already
safeguarded. 1t is by no means i'm
probable that the time has come when
Great Britain can afford 10 take that
view.
However that may be, IT has been ap-
Parent for long time that British gar
risOns IN America were more orna-
mental than useful: that the reasons
for their maintenance were more senti-
mental than urgent. 1t has been a cost
~ demonstration too. Neither Of Great
Britain's remaining southern CONT
mental holdings-British Guiana and
British Honduras-is self sustaining.
For aught that her American insuIar
colonies have yielded her during the
last half century Great Britain would
have been better Of without them. The
annual revenues from the West Indian
islands have been falling of apprecia-
bly, The garrisons have added nothing
10 the prosperity Of the regions in
which they were placed. Canada has
shown no sign Of retrogression since
the withdrawal of the garrisons. For
some time Halifax and Esquimalt have
been the only stations in the north Of
America supplied troops from British
headquarters. Even at these distant
posts OF the empire only a handful of
troops has been considered necessary
since the forming of the confederation
into the Dominion. The last large reg
ular force in British America was in
1870, when Lord Wolseley made the
Red river exploration into the north
west provinces. Immediately after that
was completed the fat went forth that
Canada must thenceforth depend upon
her militia for standing defense. A few
months later the last battalion of reg
ulars was Withdrawn, leaving only the
1000 provided as the garrison of Hall
fax. This number has remained sta
tiOnary ever since, the small garrison
AZ Esquimalt, on the other side Of the
continent, making the complement.
