crouched low for a spring; then.
just in the moment at which he
was about to bound forward, there
came a terrific crash. Involuntar-
lily both the man and the woman
glanced around. The old black
woman, Bhssie's nanny, whom
both had forgotten, had smashed
the wireless apparatus with a
chair. Their terrific problem had
been solved for them!

FATE OF THE ARMIES

caught me fair and square, all
right. I'm your prisoner Of war;
but I'm mighty glad that the cut
ting Of the wires just as you cap
tured me ended my service. as tele-
graph operator down there in the
city where my army-the army of
the red-lies beseiged by your
army---the army of the blue"
Bessie Warden, wireless pper-
ator in the scout airship of the
army of the blue, smiled from her
key across to him. BY her, reayd
to hand on the operating table, lay
a big as caliber revolver. Near her
side sat her old colored nanny,
holding a similar weapon In her
hand, aimed at Cartwright. 1t was
evident that, although Bessie loved
Jack, she was not going to take
any chances of his interrupting
communication between the two
wings of the army of the blue,
which he could do by destroying
the wireless apparatus Bessie oper-
ated.
For a moment Bessie smiled at
Jack, her heart in her eyes, and
her brain yearning for the end OF
the cruel war. Then her attention
to the wireless instrument became
strained again. An important
message was coming ina mess
age was coming ina message
from one wing of the army of the
blue, which she must transmit to
the other wing of the same army,
Attack city by east bridge at

Cartwright jumped to his feet
excitedly as the message came in.
Great heavens!" he cried. THAT
means the fall of the city! The
east bridge is absolutely unpro-
tected. but we did not know that
the enemy knew 1t. Don't send
that message. don't do 1t. It means
the utter ruin of the army of the
red!"
Bessie, her face suddenly drawn
and haggard. covered Jack with
her revolver.
'It means the victory Of the
army of the blue" she cried. "You
know I'll send the message and
send the answer back-you'd do
the same thing II you were IN my
place."
Cartwright stormed up and
