swering to the description he gave had
been seen there.
He returned at once to the railway
station.
The telegram was still In the hands
Of the station master, to whose care 1t
had been addressed. This diligent per-
son professed to have sent n man
through the Orient express from end
to ED calling for Miss Helen Now
bray. but calling in vain. He had no
theory more plausible to offer than
that the lady had not started from
KrOnburg or else that she had left the
train Mt Felgarde before her name had
been cried. But certainly she would
not have had time to so far II she
were a through passenger. for the
Orient express stopped but ten min
utes at Felgarde.
1t was evident throughout the short
conversation that the excellent official
was on pins and needles. Struck by
the emperOr's features, which he had
so often seen in painting and photo
graph. 1t still seemed impossible that
the greatest man In Rhaetia could be
travelling thus about the country In or
binary morning dress and unattended.
Sure at one instant that he must be
talking with the emperor. sure the next
that he had been deceived by n like
ness. the poor fellow struggled against
his confusion in n way that would
have amused Leopold In a different
mood.
With a manner that essayed the diff
ferent mean between reverence due to
royalty and common everyday polite
ness. good enough for an ordinary gen.
tleman. the station master volunteered
to ascertain whether the ladies' de-
scribed had gone out and given up
their tickets. A few minutes Of sus-
pense dragged ON. Then came the
| news that no such persons had passed.
Here was n stumbling block Since
Helen MOwbray and her mother had
apparently not Travelled by the Orient
express. where had they gone on leav-
Ing the hotel at Kronburg? Had they.

as to their intentions for the purpose
Of binding the emperor. or had they

minute. as women may? Could it be
| possible that they had changed them
50 completely as to return to Schloss
Lyndalberg or had they chosen to van
ish mysteriously through some back
door out Of Rhaetia. leaving no trace
which even lover could find?
Leopold could not help recalling the
chancellOr's revelations. but dismissed
them as soon as they had crppt into his
brain. No matter where the clew to
, the tangle might lie. he told himself
that 1t was not in any act Of which
Helen Mowbray need be ashamed.
He could think Of nothing more to do
but to go dismally back to Kronburg
and await developments or, rather, to
STIR them up by every means in his
power. This was the course he finally
chose, and just as he was about to
act upon his decision he remembered
bis carelessly given promise to Count
Won Breitstein.
There was telephone in the railway
station at Eelgarde. and Leopold him
self called up the chancellor at Krop-
burg.
