CHAPTER XIII.

Miss Hunt rose early III the Iuorh-
ing and took the express train FOR
Berlin. She arrived at about mid
night. and drove at once 10 the Wind
sor hotel. There was less chance or
being observed here. amid the crowd
OF cosmopolitan visitors, than at the
Kaiserhof, where IL is always suspect
ed that every visito- cherishes some
diplomatic secret.
She slept till about 3 O'Clock, and
then rose, and shortly before noon
drove round the corner 10 the great
pile OF the foreign office in the Will
hemstrasse.
The black leatherhelmeted guard,
strutting outside his little white and
black striped sentry-box. looked at the
Englishwoman in surprise as she
walked with confident step up
through the main entrance. The quiet
decision OF her manner indeed won for
her at once an immediate audience
with a polite and fatherly official, who
spoke excellent English.
Miss Hunt wondered how II was that
the Germans had achieved such q
reputation for bad manners.
When, however, she had fully ex'
planned her mission the courteous and
elderly gentleman. who had paid APP
parently the greatest Difference TO her
every word, was no longer fatherly
Both his eyes and his voice took on
certain sharpness as he began 10
gross-queGtion her in a mastery and
scientific way.
On every point Miss Hunt was able
TO show him that she knew her bust
ness TO the full.
You understand" said the politely
exacting official In conclusion. that
an interview with his majesty Is a
most extraordinary thing to ask; but
In view OF all the circumstances.

TO communicate with his majesty al
once. Whether he will receive you
| Is, OF course, another matter alto
gether, but | should counsel you not

| tunity. II. therefore. you will return
10 your hotel and wait there for few
hours. / will let you know in the
course OF the afternoon what his ma
jesty's wishes are"
Miss Hunt returned to the hotel on
foot. II was only 500 yards or 80 dis.
tant from the chancellerie.
tempted to walk abroad. down the
crowded and busy Linden, but she con.
tented herself with surveying, It's
varied life from the steps OF the hotel
The leaves, though taking on au
tumn tints, were still thick In the IA
nous thoroughfare, and cast a pleas
ant shade, for the afternoon was more
than warm.
On a seat under one OF the trees
was little. shrivelled old gentleman
In rusty frock coat and a seedy silk
hat.
Miss Hunt, now trained to acute sus.
picion at all times and In all places
instinctively felt that the little old
man was taking an interest In her
movements. At any rate, he kept her
under constant surveillance from be-
meath the brim of his hat.
And the hall porter. he CHANGED to

he said. ito at once convey you to
the palace"
He then led the way to a small car
riage which was awaiting at the hotel
door.
The porter who had instructed the
walters and chambermaids to keep a
sharp eye on Miss Hunts movements.
was dumfounded when he saw her
enter the carriage, which he knew
well enough came from the imperial
stables.
They drove down the long avenue
past the great Williams old palace
on the right, over the cliff, perennially
new-looking bridge across the slug
gish Spree, and round the base Of the
gigantic fountain that plays before
the castle.

BRYAN IN NEW JERSEY.
Without An Argument, Devotes Time
larqeIy to AssaIinq President.

Newark y. j., oct. 23.-New Jersey
today poured out hosts to greet Will
liam J. Bryan. Refreshed by long
sleep last night following two labori-
Gus days in Ohio and West Virginia.
the Democratic candidate was III excel
lent form and he took advantage of
this to inject into his utterances a
shirt which enabled him to impress his
audiences everywhere.
Travelling at a nervc-racking clip,
over q Zig-zag course in a handsomely
equipped special train in charge of
state Chairman j. r. Nngent. Mr.. Bry-
an was enabled to talk to d great num-
her Of farmers. laboring men and 9TH
ers in the farming and Industrial cen
tiers of the state. Evidently inspired
by President Roosevelts recent decla-
ration on the subject of labor in which
President Gompers and the Democratic
nominee were severely criticized. Mr..
Eryan chose for his main text the la
Dor question. In almost all his speech
es. of which there were 16 he made
merry with the attitude of the Presi-
dent. He accused Mr. Roosevelt Of
quitting into" the campaign and de-
posing Mr.. GOmpers and said sarcaStl-
cally that he expected before long he
himself would be deposed and Nicho-
las LongWcrth. the Presidents Son-in-
law. would be placed at the head of the
Democracy. He never lost an opportu-
nifty to define the difference between
the platforms of the Republican and
Democratic parties with respect to la
Dor and explained in detail the planks
which the Democratic party made at
Denver to gain the remedies for which
he said labor was crying. but to which
the Republicans had turned deaf ear.
Incidentally at West Philadelphia on
his way into New Jersey, the candi-
date said that his voice has held out
so we'll because he had no ragged argu-
rents to pass through his throat.
While at Whitehouse. n. J., Selling
upon the name of the place for a witty
preliminary to his speech he said:
Il am here at last. 1t has been rath-
er a long journey but happily ended"
At Trenton he told the people that
he had a united Democracy behind
him and a frightened Republican party
in front Of him. Immense throngs
greeted him at Trenton. Phillipsburg.
