for the wild rider.
General Braze, with few Of his
men, bloody and heartsick, was the
last Of the little army to reach safety
In the castle grounds.
The fortress, with all guns, stores and
ammunition, was in the hands Of the
Iron Count and his cohorts.
Baron Dangloss had been taken pris-
oner with a whole platoon of fighting
conStables. This was the last appall-

grounds.
A wise as we'll as cruel man was
MarlanX. He lost no time in issuing

criers went through the streets during
the long, wretched afternoon. announc-

of the prince and the beginning Of a
new and substantial regime. All cit
izens were commanded to recognize
the authority Of the dictator.
Toward evening, after many con-
sultations and countless reports, Mar
lanx removed his headquarters to the
tower. He had fondly hoped to be in
the castle long before this.
The cells and dungeons in the great
old tower were now occupied by
bruised. defeated officers OF the law.
Baron Jasto DangloSS, crushed in
spirit and broken of body, paced the
blackeSt and uarrowest cell of them

At Q o'clock on Sunday morning a
small group of people gathered III the

turn of master who was never to
come back to them. God rest his sim
pie soul!
Truxton King picked himself up
from the street, dazed, bewildered, but
the assault on the paralyZed minions
Of the government.
He looked back toward the CORY en-
trance to the circus. There was Mar
lanx, mounted and swinging 4 saber
on high. Ahead was mass Of car
riages, filed with the white faced. pal
sled prey from the court Of Graustark.
From somewhere near the spot where
Olga Platanoya fell came a harsh, pen
etrating command:
Cut them off. Cut them off from
the CASTLE
1t was his cue. He dashed into the
street and ran toward the carriages,
shouting with all his strength:
Turn back! 1t is MarlanX! To the
castle"'
Then it was that he saw the prince.
The boy was standing on q seat on the
royal coach of state, holding out his
eager little hands to some one in the
thick of the crowd that surged about
him. He was calling some ones name,
but no one could have heard him.
Truxton's straining eyes caught sight
of the figure in gray that struggled
forward In response TO the cries and
the extended hand.
Aunt Lorraine. Aunt Lorraine" He
now heard the name the boy cried
with all his little heart
Two officers struck at the uncouth,
desperate American as he lifted the
girl from the ground and deliberately
tossed her into the coach.
Turn back he shouted. 4 horse
man rode him down. He looked up as
the plunGing animals hoofs clattered
about his head. Eos Engo. with
drawn sword was crowding up to the
carriage door. shouting words Of re-
joicing at sight Of the girl he loved.
He caught a glimpse of her. holding
the prince in her arms, her white,
agoniZed face turned toward the mob.
Distinctly he heard her cry:
Save him. Save Truxton King"
From the sidewalks swarmed we'll
armed hordes Of desperadoes, firing
wildly into the ranks Of devoted
guardsmen. Truxton fed from the
danger zone as fast as his strained
ankle would permit him. Bullets were
striking all about him.
Some one was shouting his name be-
hind in the scurrying crowd. He turn

Mr. Hobbs, pale as q ghost, his cap
gone, his clothing torn, was painting at
