CHAPTER xxi.
The ROYAL Intervention.

Five bells in the forenoon watch on
the Britannia. The great ship in the
perfection of readiness, so clean that
you could have eaten your dinner off
her decks with clear conscience if
you wished; her 700 men in spiek and
span uniforms, her officers gorgeous
in gold lace, royal blue and spotless
white; her marines in vivid scarlet;
her masts decked with flags from fly
ing-jib to spanker-boom end, her yards
manned with row after row of sailors,
others mustered around the great guns
on the main deck, was ready for visit
from her august master.
Everybody on the ship was full of
excitement except the lonely prisoner
In the gunroom. A barge was seen
pulling from the shore and from a
Flagstaff forward the royal ensign flut-
tered out in the fresh morning breeze.
In few moments a little man in a
shovel hat and plain civilians dress
stepped out of the boat and clambered
briskly up the accommodation ladder
really flight of stairs which had
been rugged over the side. The ad-
miral, the fag-captain, the officers of
the ship, hats in hand, with much bow
ing and saluting met him at the gang
way. AS the royal foot touched the
white deck the royal flag was broken
out at the masthead, the boatswain
piped, the band struck up God Save
the King" and the great guns of the
main deck thundered out the royal
salute
The admiral turned, faced forward,
waved his cooked hat and the whole
ship rang with enthusiastic cheering.
The king nodded like the plain little
famer he was. without any particular
ceremony, shook hands with the ad-
miral, waved his arm graciously to the
officers and, attended by the admiral
stepped aft and disappeared later in
the great cabin under the poop deck
"Now," said the king, as he sat
down In the cabin, has everything
been prepared?"
Everything is ready, your majesty
The ship is provisioned for her cruise.
the officers and men aboard. All
ready, sir"
II performed my part of the under
taking this morning."
The king chuckled. Kephard grinned
profoundly, but said nothing.
you can fetch the prisoner here
now"
The admiral turned and called the
orderly, gave him message, and in a
few moments my lord Darlington, un-
armed. presented himself In the cabin.
BY the kings direction Kephard
stood in front of his majesty, and Car
rington did not at first see who was
there. He knew certainly from the
commotion that the king had come
aboard the ship. but that was all.

A TRIBE OF FIGHTING INDIANS.
Aborigines of Central America Seem
ingly Without Fear.

81 sojourned for more than a year in
Central America, mostly in Hondur-
as, where l went to make study of
the native Indian tribes" said Charles
G. Lesseuer of New Orleans.
These aborigines are mostly of
warlike mold and as brave fighters as
any of the human race. 1 was es-
pecially impressed with the inhabi-
tants of the Copan and Gracias dis
tricts. They are the best fighting
stock in all Latin America. Three or
four hundred of them will often defeat
an army of thrice their size. They
are ever eager fur battle and reck
nothing of heavy adverse Odds They
are supposed to be Christians, but
from what l saw and learned of 9TH
ers came to the belief that they prac-
tice heather rites and ceremonies.
They are excellent friends, but ter
rible enemies, and If defeated in bat
tie are apt to visit their wrath on their
unfortunate officers.
"These Indians cling to their primi.
tive customs and do most of their
hunting with bows and arrows. The
way they use the bow is rather unique.
They sight their game, calculate the
distance and then shoot their arrows
into the air, whereupon the weapon
falls upon the mark, whether bird or
beast, seven times out of ten, with
fatal effect. Baltimore American.

from him and, thank God l was able
to place him out of the running before
he could pursue her or annoy her
again"
"You fought a duel with Lord
Strathkate?"
Eyes, your majesy."
you know my opinion of duelling?
You know the law?"
Eyes, your majesty. There was
nothing else could do"
you're not sorry for it?" asked the
king sternly.
Darlington had to tell the truth
Although he felt morally certain that
he would bring down upon his head
the wrath of the king, which would be
the last straw added to his already
heavy burdens, he scorned to lie
mo, l am not sorry, sir / should
do it again.
You're an honest man, Lord Car
rington," sais the king, 'if very fool
ish one"
1T was Lord Strathgate himself who
told me that 1 was. saving your ma
jesty's grace, damned fool"
"Ahem!" said the king, "it seems
that Lord Strathgate can speak the
truth on occasion. When said he
that?"
Lying on the ground with my
sword through him." answered Car
rington his face flushing at the kings
deliberate confederation of Strath-
gates uncomplimentary opinion.
Well" said the king, that's what
caused you to disobey orders?"
THAT and that only, your majesty,
and am ready to take the punishment
for it, whatever it may be-
And what is it likely to be?"
Dismissal from the service, per-
chance, SIR returned Darlington
hoarsely.
And your wife, what of her; Where
is she?"
81 would to God l knew. If could
have word that she were safe and we'll,
sir, 1 could bear anything"
"You have that word"
What, sir?" exclaimed Darlington.
"You have it."
Whose word?"
Mine, your kings. 'Tis as good as
that of any gentleman in England, l
take it, Lord Darlington" said the
king, with real touch of majesty.
Your majesty" returned my lord,
sinking to his knees again, "'Tis as
| surance enough for the most dis
| traught mind. ! thank your majesty.
/ bless your majesty. Now, sir l am
ready for the court"
"Good!" said the king.
] But Will your majesty add one favor

of the family fuel. The principle upon
which these stoves are constructed is
the scientific retention of heat, the
cooker being to retain the heat first
generated on the cooking stove. This
process is excellent for many things
that require slow cooking and the
comfort Of preparing a dinner and at
tending church or being gone for
half day or more with the knowledge
the food will be well cooked and not
burned is a boon to many house
keepers.
All kinds of material are employed
in the cabinets that are for SALE Some
are artistic arts and crafts creations,
and others are elaborately covered with
plush. However, it is entirely I'M
necessary to buy an expensive fireless
heater, as many housewives have
proved. The accompanying picture
gives an idea of how the box should be
constructed. One of the best home
made fireless cookers was made by
the man Of the house out of a large
wooden box, whose cover fitted snug
ly after it was placed on hinges. This
he lined with asbestos paper, which
cost only a few cents. A large two
quart granite kettle completed the out
fit. When the kettle was placed in
the box it was completely surrounded
with small pieces of newspaper, which
fitted in all the chinks and corners.
After the food was brought to the boil
Ing point it was placed in the kettle,
securely covered, and the result has
been perfectly cooked food, at a small
outlay. Rolled newspapers were first
used in this experiment, but did not
prove success, as the air could get
packed as tightly as the paper clip
pings.
Still another family has construct
ed fireless cooker out of an old
trunk. The trunk holds three large
covered granite kettles and around
them is securely packed as much hay
as the trunk will hold. A clean piece
of flannel is placed on top of the YES
sells after they are filed and covered.
When the trunk lid is fastened down,
1t is left undisturbed all day. This
woman is employed down town all day.
She pares her potatoes and other vege-
tables after breakfast and puts them
over to boil. AS soon as they reach
boiling point she places them in the
receptacles in the Norwegian stove
(once trunk, and when she re-
turns at six o'clock her dinner is COM
pletely cooked and ready for her. In
this way meat and two or more vege-
tables are easily prepared. BY using
double boilers, such as are used to
cook oatmeal, this woman manages to
make one receptacle hold two kinds
of food, and can cook as many as
eight different articles.
This woman's experiment was so
successful that another-a china paint
er-tried using large tin cracker
box. In this she placed a tin kettle
and covered It closely with excelsior
which came around her china. A
piece of carpet was laid on top and the
box closed The result, after leaving
the food for day and first boiling 1t
for 20 minutes, was entirely satisfac-
tory. When she wants to take the

lieutenant Lord Darlington" be-
gan Admiral Kephard severely, "the
hour of your court-martial has arrived,
but before you appear in its presence
his gracious majesty has kindly
thought fit to see you in person. He
is here to receive you, to hear what
you have to say for yourself"
Admiral Kephard suddenly stepped
aside and disclosed little George sit
ting back in the huge admiral's chair.
Little George had very heavy frown
upon his face and did his best to as
sume a godlike and menacing mein.
Darlington knelt at once. The king
looked hard at him.
Rise, sir" he said in voice which
he strove to make harsh and forbid
ding. Pretty doings I hear about
you"
Lord Darlington bowed profoundly,
but said nothing.
Have you nothing to say for your
self, sir?" continued the king.
Your majesty. nothing"
"Hey! What?" cried King George.
Nothing, SIR"
You make love to another woman,
Cecily Darlington; you are ashamed
of your wife; you allow her to run
away with Strathgate-"
your majesty" cried Darlington,
stung to action, give me leave, sir :"
He bowed To interrupt the king was
a heinous offense. Have permission
to proceed, sir?"
Proceed" returned his majesty.
"You have been misinformed in one
particular. Nothing you can say of me
or to me is unmerited, that / will ad-
nit; but Lady Darlington did not run
away with Lord Strathgate."
II understood he drove away with
her in your carriage at night, at two
o'clock in the morning"
Lord Darlington WINGED under the
apparent insinuation.
THAT Is true" he replied; "but my
lady was entirely innocent. She had
with her young woman "a compan-
ion. She knows not the world, your
majesty"
'And you were ashamed of her for
that?"
Il was. your majesty. Now, I glory
in the fact"
go on, sir"
"And she simply used Strathgate as
she would a coachman. When he
would fain have abducted her she
tried to shoot him. She did escape

well, Kephard, what do you think
about it? Should prisoner on trial
be permitted to see his wife?"
Not Immediately, your majesty"
growled Kephard, turning away to
hide his face.
Il think it will have to be as your
admiral says, Lord Carripgton," said
the king. "You cannot see her for the
present"
| My lord was too proud to beg, vet
there was something else he could do.
There is something else. May I
ask your majesty?"
What is it?" said the king kindly.
"Ask what you like"
"Will your majesty-Can a message
be carried to her from me?"
Il think there's no harm in that, eh,
Kephard?"
| mo, your majesty"
| What is the mesasge?"
| "Wilf your majesty tell Lady Car
rfngton how have misjudged her and
| how bitterly l have rapented my fol-
| lies, and how proud and happy | am
that she is not as Lady Cecily and the
others?"
Il think may say that she will get
! the message in due time," said the
king.
"And if might further trespass on
your majestys good nature, will ask
| to have this letter sent to her."
AS he spoke my lord pulled paper
from out his breast pocket.
What is that?" said the king.
'"'Tis letter l wrote on the eve of
my engagement with Lord Strathgate.
1t may be conceived of as conveying
the true sentiments of my heart"
"Hark ye. Carrington," said the
king, Il will not have Lady Caring
| ton, to whom l have taken a great
| fancy, further vexed by letters or mes
| sages."
Your majesty" answered Caring
| ton, "you may read the letter yourself.
IT'S such letter as would convey joy
| to any woman's heart, provided she
| loved her husband and could forgive
him his folly"
well, as to what may be the state
of Lady Carrington's feelings toward
you, that will have to be developed
| later Meanwhile"-the king hauled
| from his pocket two papers-"Admira
Kephard, here is an order which will
| obviate the necessity of court-mar-
| tial AS commander-in- chief of the
fleet | interpose. l am informed that
| the frigate Bellona is ready for three
| years tour of duty in the East Indies"
you're right, sir" answered KEEP
| hard
Here is an order from the admiral
| ty appointing Lord Darlington first
lieutenant of that ship"
GAY, ay, SIR" answered Kephard,
| taking the order and scanning it rap
| idly.
Lord Darlington" said the king
| gravely, Il have estopped the court
martial Your offense has been a seri-
Gus one, however, and it cannot go un-
punished. Because of it l order you
to the Bellona You will spend three
years in the East Indies. Perhaps by
that time you will come back hap

"a wiser, your majesty, but there
can be no happiness for me-"
"And why?"
Because | am parted from Lady
Darlington and because l have shown
mysef unworthy of her."

replaces 1t after 1t is thoroughly warm.
In fact. there are countless ways In
which this hreless cooking can be
tried. The basic rules, and without
adherence to these one will fail, are to
use an air-tight box filled with non
conductor of heat, and to have the
food steaming and at boiling point when
1t Is placed inside.
