CHAPTER TX.

1t was late in a sultry, almost breeze
less evening in September, 1911, that
the ship Condor" belonging to Laro
and his associates, dropped anchor in
the harbor of Fort Royal, Martinique
She had but a single passenger, If
such he could be termed; for it was
Jean Laftte, returned recently from
mission which will be referred to
more particularly later on, and who
had come from New Orleans for the
purpose of meeting Laro, whom he ex.
pected to find waiting at Fort Royal.
His search proved unavailing, al
though he ascertained that L.aro had
been seen in the town; and after WIS.,
iting several of the places where he
was liable to be found, LATTE went
to an inn not far from the wharves,
and ordered supper.
Here he sat enjoying the GOODNESS,
while he slipped and smoked, when
there came to his ears the sound of
voice whose mellow resonance
thrilled him strangely, sending his
thoughts whirling into the past.
The air was yet vibrating with the
hearty tones as the speaker came
through the door; and lamp hanging
from the ceiling of the balcony
flashed its rays into the face of Gre
loire.
The recognition was not mutual;
for Greloire, after careless glance
at the younger man, crossed the bal
cony and seated himself near the rail.
Lafitte was, for the moment, unde-
cided as to what to do,-whether to
reveal his identity, and risk hearing
whatever comments Greloire might
make upon name and career which
already had become known in two
continents, or to remain silent, and
thus forego this unlooked-for oppor-
tunity for knowing something definite
in regard to the man who was still
dear to him--he who was now Emper-
Or of France.
But all his indecision was soon rout-

ITO call you Jean, as | did years
ago." Greloire exclaimed impetuously,
extending both hands, which were well
coined by the firm grip of the younger
mans sinewy fingers.
"Bien," the latter said, Let it be
so. And you-what shall ! call you,-
marquis, duke, or marshal of France?"
Tell me of yourself, and of-Napo'
leon"
1.-THE first will take but short
time" Greloire replied laughingly;
''for | am not nobleman, nor yet an
officer. Indeed | left the army six
years ago, on account of sundry at
tentions paid to my body and limbs
by the enemies of France, who thus
rendered me unfit for hard service
against them, and | am now Monsieur
Felix Greloire, attache OF the emper-
or's household. AS such | go upon
various missions; and my business
here relates to the settlement of some
matters connected with certain prop
erty belonging to her Majesty the
empress, who, as you know, is native
of this fair island. A fine place 1t is,
both as to climate and people; but
Louisiana is far more to my taste"
LATTE appeared to observe the ir-
relevancy of this last remark, for,
with a keen look at Greloire, he said,
louisiana! What do you know OF
louisiana"
"Much-that is. of New Orleans,
for | was there several months, in the
autumn of 1903"

lana" said the young man.

ries for you. But | heard something
of you, and still more in regard to
that Spanish rascal who took you
away from Toulon, not long before |
went there to get you myself"
What mean you by that?' Lafitte
demanded, almost as if resenting an
affront
"This, mon ami" was the slowly and
distinctly uttered reply THAT when
