WASHINGTON, D. c., May 16.
Frederick M. Kerby, steno-
grapher in the interior depart
ment, was dismissed from the gov
|ernment service today in a special
delivery letter sent to his home
and signed by Secretary Ballinger.
The letter stated that he was dis
missed because he was unworthy
to remain in the service"
The dismissal of Kerby is an
other OF the sensations which has
developed in the Ballinger case In
the last three days.
Saturday Kerby made public a
statement in which he told of the
preparation of the Lawler docu-
ment. Following this Wicker
sham sent copy of the Lawler
memorandum to the investigating
committee, and later the president
took the center of the stage by

saying that he had ordered Law
Ter to frame the letter, known
as the memorandum, and told him
to write "as If he were president"
The prosecution in the Balhn-

to find out just why the Lawler
draft was not sent to the senate
when that body called for "all
documents" in the Ballfnger con-
troversy. or why 1t was not pro-
duced in answer to a score OF spe-
cific requests made by the at

ing learned that he was under sus-

was he, / am sure, who entrapped you
into taking a photograph of the forts.
You are under suspicion and would
have been in terrible danger, had you
gone with him. You will sail, now, on
another ship and will be safe"
He will be in danger!" said Hardy,
mystified. What sort of danger?"
Did | say that he would be in dan
ger?" asked Aisome, sweetly. mo,
| said that you would have been in
danger. We have taken the plans of
the forts away from him, but he still
has them in his -and-and-
perhaps you have, but 1 do not think
so-a man who could speak so beauti
fully of woman"
But why are you doing all this for
me?" asked Hardy
why? Because | am a woman,
suppose. Because you have said there
is moonlight in my cheeks, that my
lips are ripe cherries, that am made
of gold dust, that | am a queen of
fairy-land. I am known as the Fox
but have a woman's silly heart and
cannot resist fattery." There was

she stood there with her face raised

"Sano? He is not your father,
then?"
"No, he is my superior in the secret
service. And now good-by; you may
kiss me once, if you really meant
what you said. 1t will be the only
kiss of my life, as it is not the Gus
tom of my country"
She raised her lips to him and he
stopped and kissed her. The lips
were dewy and very sweet, and he
was conscious of some subtle perfume,
as if she herself were some exquisite
flower
"Goodby," she whispered, "and
think sometimes of the little Lilac
Blossom!"
She turned and was gone, and he
stepped into the boat waiting TO take

opened port-hole. A sudden fear that
the ship would founder and that he
would be drowned, cooped up there in
the cabin, seized him and he leaped,
clambering, for the portfolio. 1t was
not far above him, but ere he could
reach it, it was below him and he was
thrown toward it, receiving a second
waterspout full in the face, drenching
him to the skin. But he was as active
as a monkey and succeeded in thrust
ing an arm through the opening. He
hung on with a will, and as his side
of the vessel hove into the air again,
slammed the window to and gave a
few frantic whirls to the screw, suf-
ficient to make it catch and form a
solid object to which he could hold.
He secured the window and rolled to
the floor, where he rested on hands
and knees, with his limbs spread out
as widely as possible to keep himself
from rolling about, while he took
stock of the situation. Enough water
had come in to drench him thorough
ly and to wet his blankets and bag
gage, but not sufficient to food the
floor of the hold.
He crawled to the door and tried to
open it, but to his surprise found it
locked. He pounded on it and shouted,
but to no avail. This discovery
aroused in him again the sense Of
danger, and the face of Aisome, as he
had seen it in his dream in the train,
took shape before the eyes of his
memory. Selling the knob of the
door, he threw his entire weight
against it several times, with the in
tention of breaking it in, but, to his
surprise, it offered unexpected resist
ance. AS he stood thus, still holding
to the knob and wondering why he
had been made a prisoner, there was
a horrible grinding, grating sound; the
ship shuddered as though wounded to
the death, and the stern rose high in
the air and remained thus. Hardy
knew this from the fact that he was
now almost lying on the door, against
which, moment ago, he had been
leaning The grinding continued, ac-
companied by bumps and slidings,
giving him very much the same SEN
sation that he had once experienced
in building that was being shaken
by an earthquake. The waves, over
which she had but now been leaping
against her with terrific and angry
violence.
"My Cod" gasped Hardy, 1--WE have
run upon a rock and l shall be
drowned here like rat in hole, if
they do not let me out! Open this
door! Hello! Open, say!"

CHAPTER III.
The Queen of Fairy.Land.

They were off for Aomori, at the
north end of Nippon, in the early
morning, leaving Yokohama on a toy
train that started at Gas. All day
Ehcy travelled through a country titled
like a garden, a country of vivid
green, with many brawling streams
Of water clear as crystal, and hillsides
thickly wooded. The sky was dark
blue, reminding one of the excess of
color used sometimes by impressionist
artists, and seemed ever low and near
objects evidently close by appeared
far off, an effect sometimes attained
in skillful landscape gardening, or per-
haps in fairy-land. The frequent
iarmhouses were built of bamboo set
on end, and were tharched with straw
AS Hardy and his companion gazed
from the window, they were enter
tanned by the running comment Of
.heir guide or dragoman, Masatsma
G'suchiya, whom they had picked up at
yokohama. This young Japanese had
spent several years in New York,
knew English, and was bright and
oncious to the verge of pertness.
When a japanese merchant and a
pretty young woman bearded the
train about the middle of the day, it
was Masatsura who acted as intro,
rpcer and apologist.
This is a Japanese silk merchant"
he explained, and he is going with
his daughter to Hakodate. If the hon
orable gentlemen do not object, he
will bring his daughter in with us. l
have explained that such is the Gus
tom in England and America"
Bring her in, of course" said
Hardy, rising and making one of his
most graceful bows. I'VE shall be de-
lighted to have the lady's society"
This was translated to Mr.. Sano. the
merchant, who executed a series of
supple obeisances, and to the daugh-
ter, who arose and courtesied demure-

she's quite an acquisition, eh, Ne

of them speak English?"
"Not word" replied the guide.
"She's positively beautiful, don't
you think so, Neville?" Hardy in

natives as an offensive, inferior lot.
