barred talons. In his flight to the city

barred talons. In his fight to the city
he counted every moment of value,
and through his mind went but one
thought: How to get news to Japan
in time to avert disaster. What he
had witnessed was so convincing that
he was amazed at the deviliSh in
genuity of the Americans, who had led
the whole world to believe them de-
fenseless when they were in reality
only Turing other nations on to their
doom. He was filled with resentment.
The shoe was on the other foot now.
and it made noticeable difference.
When he believed the United States
poWerless to defend itself, it had been
only tit and proper that Japan should
harry her, conquer if possible, and
gain concessions Of territory and
money indemnity; but with the knowl,
edge that the country was not only in
a position to care for itself, but also
to conquer an enemy, he viewed things
in an entirely different light.
Worst of all, he realized that he
was more largely responsible for the
outburst of war than any other man,
and aside from the ignominy which
must be imposed upon his people was
the appreciation of what might hap
pen to his own precious head when
resentment CHANGED to act against
him. Yesterday he had been smiling,
supercilious and confident. Tonight
as he ran, he was terrified, ashamed
and despairing.
Information had come to him that
the blockade was complete, and in no
instance was he certain that any of
his reports had passed through the
lines. He rapidly reviewed the
chances, and decided that he must get
word to every man at his command to
strive to pass warning through to
Canadian territory where 1t might be
cabled to Japan. He counted, with
Japanese reasoning, on his ability TO
bride some one along the border, for
getting that when American patrio-
tism is at full tide money has little

paratory to leaving the cars. He could
trace out no other shapes in the gloom.
Not even building raised its dark
bulk In the night. He felt the neces-
sity Of advancing farther.
Foot by foot he wriggled forward,
the splinters Of the field Embedding
themselves In his flesh unheeded,
straining every nerve to avoid making
noise, and listening at intervals in
the hope of catching some word Of
conversation which might give him a
clew to the cause Of this nocturnal
mission. From short distance ahead
came the mutterings of low-pitched
voices, and then a period of silence.
He was past the machines now, still
crawling carefully. Once more he
paused, when he heard sullen
muffled crash from the direction of the
water, and in an agony of surprise and
terror rose to his knees, forgetting
that he might be observed. His hands
interlocked themselves In stress as he
watched in breathless suspense for q
moment, and then, almost moaning in
despair, he crept rapidly back to the
road, went cautiously down 1t for a
hundred yards, and took madly to his
heels with fright.
All caution was thrown aside, and
| as he ran like an insane man through
the night, with his overworked lungs
believing in and out until they fel,
afame, he burst into sobs, mutterinl
to himself again and again: only
the gods can save Nippon! The gods
help Nippon!"

was not without discomfort, as the
dust of the road whirled upward and
into his nostrils in sitting volume.
until he was begrimed and almost
strangled; but he chung on grimly,
waiting for the mysterious trip to end.
The big car stopped so suddenly
that he had scant time to loosen his
hold, fall off into the dirt and roll
hastily into a ditch by the roadside
where he might be hidden from sight.
To his surprise the vehicle turned
through a gateway into field, where
he heard the slow crunching of the
great wheels over the stubble. He
raised himself to his knees, and then
in crOuching posture essayed to fol-
low 1t In its wanderings, when he was
arrested by sharp challenge, be-
traying the fact that although the Wis

was being taken of entertaining others.
Again he threw himself on his face,
waiting patiently for other sounds.

down to where the broad expanse Of
