Meyerstein's shop, and that from it staircase
led to the upper floor. The other door was his
mark and he knocked on 1t, raising first with
cautious touch, then resolutely, the old brass
hand with Hospitality reckoning finger which served
for knocker. Then he listened for footstep on
the stairs. If she not, the venturesome night
went ungraced by its browning adventure. He
must kiss the hand that saved him before he
slept.

and in writing she called him by that title and by
none other.
Without word he followed her. picking his

what less dense there. He stood by the chair.

CHAPTER ".
The Message of the Night

THE last of the transparencies died out; the
dim and infrequent oll-lampS alone lit up
the Street of the Fountain and Saint M1chaels
Square They reveled still down at the Hotel de
Paris whittier Max Hollbrandt and dozen
others had hurried with the news of the evening
great event But here on the borders OF the old
north quarter all grew stillthe Golden Lion empty,
the townsmen their beds, the soldiers to barracks,
full of talk and fears and threats. Yet light
burned still in the round in the keep of Sulei
mans Tower, and the Commandments servant still
expected his royal master. Peter Vassip, sturdy
son of Volsen had apprehensiOns; but he was
sleepy, and he and the Sentres were the only men
awake One might as well be a soldier at onCe!'
he grumbled-for the of the hills did not
the regular army high it esteemed itself
The Commandant fingered in the Street of the
Fountain. Sergus StefanoVitch was half BOur-
bon, but it the intellectual half. He had the
strong concentrated, rather narrow mind OF
Bourbon OF before the family decadence. On 1t his
training at Vienna had grated military precision,
perhaps pedantry, and no little added scorn OF
what called liberty and citizens called civil
rights. What rights had against his coun-
try? His country in his King-and to the
King the army his supreme instrument. So
ran his public creed, his statesmans instinct. But
beside the Bourbon mother was the kravoman
father, and behind him the long line of mingled
and vacillating fortunes which drew descent from
Stefan the Lord of Praslok, and the famous reaver
different indolent to excess sometimes ardent
to madness at others, moderate seldom. When
the blood ran hot, 1t ran verltable ire in the
veins.
And for any young man the fight in the fan
tastcaly illuminated night, the Virgin with the
broken lamp, near touch of the scythe of death,
and a girls white face at the window! Behind the
Commandments stern wrath-nay, beside, and soon
before it, for the moment dazzling his angry eyes
the bright CLEANS of romance.
He knew who lodged at the sign of the Silver
Cock. Marie Zerkovitch his friend, Zerkovitch
his jealous follower The latter, journalist,
back now from the battle-helds of France and was
writing articles for THE Patriot" leading paper
of Slavna. He deep in the Princes confidence,
and his little house on the south boulevard often
received this distinguished guest From both he
had learned of Sophy's coming to Savna. He had
met her. but his first encounter with the Lady of
the Red Star had been supremacy fortunate.

for his life? We shall meet again-I1 ar
range that with Marie Zerkovitch. You'll remem-
Der what I've told you to do in case of danger?
You'll act on it :"
Yes, monseigneur."
He sought her hand, kissed it, and then CROPPED
his way to the stairs. Sophy followed and went
with him down to the porch.
Be careful to lock your door" he enjoined her,
and don't go out tomorrow unless the streets are
quiet
oh, but I've French lesson to give at ten
O'Clock, she demonstrated with smile
You have to do that"
g l have to make my living monseigneur."
'Ah, yes" he said meditatively. We'll, slip
out quietly and wear a veil.
Nobody knows my face"
Wear veil; people notice face like yours.
Again thanks and goodnight"
Sophy peeped out from the porch and watched
his quick soldierly march up the street to Saint
Mchaels Square. The night had hghtened a
little, and she could make out his figure, although
dnly, until he turned the corner and was lost to
sight. She fingered for a moment before turning
to go back to her room-ingered musing on the
evenings history.
Down the street from the square there came a
woman-young old, pretty ugly, lady or
drudge, it was too dark to tell But it woman,
and she wept as though her heart was broken. For
whom and for what did she weep like that? Was
she mother, wife, sweetheart? Perhaps she
wept for Sterkof who lay in peril of death Perhaps

in the box, said Sophy,
with a low laugh Shall
we use it now, or when you
go, monseigneur?"

She struck the match;
her face came upon him
white in the darkness, with
the mark on her cheek a
dull red; but her eyes gilt

BULL FIGHT AT zoo.
Exciting Event Among the Buffaloes
Christmas Day. =.

A buffalo bull fight relieved the winter
monotony at the National Geological Park
Christmas day, and the interesting contest
was witnessed by several visitors who had
braved the cold to pay a Yuletide call at
the zoo and give the monkeys a holiday
treat of nuts and candy. 1t appears that
big buffalo bull had long held undlsputed
sway as boss of the herd. and the other
male bufaloes always trotted away at the
approach of the mighty fellow. This state
Of affairs continued until Christmas day
when he approached the other animals in
his usual naughty and bullying manner
One of the other bulls who had previously
manifested fear and retreated at the ap-
proach of the boss bull stood his ground
as the big fellow came near
The boss gave a grunt of disdain and
made a charge al the daring fellow as he
stood confronting him. The charge was
received bravely and in turn the other
fellow backed away and charged the boss
bull Then they had it nip and tuck for
fully ten minutes until the boss van
quished and suffering the loss of his title
OF boss of the herd turned tail and re-
treated, acknowledging that ne had been
defeated by the other.
Then the conqueror insisted on still fur-
Their Furnishing the naughty former boss
bull and the attendants at the buffalo ex-
hibt had TO take the big fellow away and
place him in another Enclosure to prevent
MIN from being badly injured by the new
boss of the herd
The other buffaloes evidently were aware
that their former liege lord had been put
out Of the boss business, for they gathered
about the winner of the battle and showed
by their actions that they were glad Of the
change. The attendants stated today that
the new master wears his honors proudly.
