Waterloo, Iowa, July 2S.-The adj
dress of Secretary Shaw before the
Chautauqua Teachers association here
this afternoon was an extended appeal
for the passage of a ship subsidy bill
by congress in the interest of secur-
ing the trade of South American coun,
tries and furnishing a navy in case OF
war. e.
He referred to the kissing Of the
name of Allison on the occasion OF
la Follette's lecture before the Water
loo chautauqua ten days ago, when
the Wisconsin man read certified SEN
ate roll calls showing that Allison
voted against many corporation
bills at the last session. Shaw was
greatly surprised when cheers greeted
the name of La Toilette, and was left
to speculate whether Iowa is for ALI
son or the Wisconsin man, with
chances in favor of the latter. -
Shaw declined to discuss the Iowa
political situation, but was much sur
prised when informed that La Toilette
would attend the republican conven.
ton in Des Moines next Wednesday
Shaw will also attend, going to Des
Moines from Onawa. -.

SYNOPSIS OF PRECEDING CHAPTERS

CHAPTER THE relations be-
tween GrauStark, a small and isolated
principality, and Axphain, to the north
and Dawsbergen. TO the south OF 1t,
have become strained. Prince Gabriel,
a half brother of the reigning prince
of Dawsbergen, imprisoned in Grau-
stark for the assassination of Prince
LOrenz, of Axphain. has escaped ana
seized the throne of Dawsbergen. Ak
phain demands the immediate recap
ture of the escaped prince. Princess
Yetive, of Graustark (the wife of an
American, one Grenfall Lorry) who
has been sojourning in Washington,
upon the receipt of this news, leaves
for home. I[-Beverly Calhoun,
daughter of United States senator, is
an intimate friend of the princess.
She obtains the consent of her father
TO visit st. Petersburg. III-Attended
by guard of Cossacks, Beverly leaves
St. Petersburg for Grausrark. while
passing through AXphain the Cossacks
hear that the AXphainians believe
their charge TO be the Princess Yetive
and have laid plans to intercept the
coach. The terror inspired by this in
formation and the sound of shooting
cause the Cossacks and even the coach
man to abandon her. IVA troop of
ragged, half starved men emerge from
the mountain shadows. The leader,
who speaks English we'll, tells Beverly
that they are goat hunters. These
men believe that she is the Princess
Yetive and offer to escort her to the
borders of Graustark. This leads Bev-
erly to pose as the princess and accept
the offer. V-They camp in the
mountains. Reassured by their court
esy, Beverly dimes with the men. VI
In rescuing Beverly from a mountain
lion Baldos is accidentally shot by
Beverly, who has fired at the beast.
XII-Haste is now made toward the
Graustark frontier. The condition of
Baldos necessitates his riding in the
coach with Beverly. XIIl-On the
journey Baldos contracts high fever,
and the pseudo princess persuades him,
despite his strong objections, to enter
her domains for medical attention. At
the frontier town Of Ganlook, Beverly,
still posing as the princess, demands to
see Baron Dangloss, chief of police.
She is greatly surprised when the chief
tells her who she is. 1X-Beverly in
duces Princes Yetive to issue an order
insuring safety to Baldos and his fol-
lowers. X-Beverly, with the roval
party, enters Edelweiss. XI-Count
Marlanx, the commander of the army,
pl omises Beverly to find a place for
Baldos in the castle guards. Baldos
reluctantly accepts.
