 "He learned fishing from the witch" said the Rogue. We were asses to fish with him. He will soon be first class sorcerer himself"
 You are two ill-conditioned fell lows" said Kuno. dlsgusted. "Gol Do not dare to venture here again. It were we'll for your souls If you pos sessed half the virtue of that good old woman whom you call a witch.
 she's not exactly true witch an- swered the Rogue. she can foretell things. Didn't she tell father that good part of his estate would sell for a Zollern fiorin? And didn't every thing as far as one can see from the turrets of Hohenzollern belong to him at his death? Pshaw! Dame Feld- heimeF is only foolish old wife, and you are the stupid Kuno."
 The Rogue hurried away as soon as he had said this. for he feared Kuno's strong arm. Wolf followed him, re- beating all the curses he had learned so faithfully from his father.
 Soon afterward the twins heard that their brother lay dangerously i'll. They celebrated the news with joyous drinking bout and agreed that the one who received the news of his death
 
 he who succeeded In shooting first should have the right to take the best wine from the cellars of Stag's Burg.
 Wolf sent servant to Stag's Burg with orders to bribe a menial there to convey the news to him.

 As they rode over the drawbridge they pulled their horses back ward to their launches simultaneously, Their brother was looking on them from a window Anger and contempt shone in | his eyes.
 The twins crossed themselves. Then l they perceived that It was not spec. tre that they saw, but flesh and blood: ''Well.' said Wolf. This IS surprise' Rubbish! I thought you were dead
 Adjournment isn't adjustment said the Rogue, glarng upward at his brother venomously We shall look for better luck next time
 You heartless villains" cried Kuno, his voice laundering through the cas- | tie courtyard. Prom this hour forth all bonds of blood shall be dissolved between us. I have heard your artil- lery roaring out your wild delight at | the news of my death. But see! have had i've guns mounted here es- l peclally to receive you. and they are | loaded in your honor!
