N octurne,


The bee TO the hive, and the bird to the
nest,
And the weary sun to the waiting west;
The opened bud TO its close again,
And sleep to the heavy eyes OF men.
Night bringeth the hour of all the
best
1t bringeth the babe to mothers breast.
The owl TO the tree, and the stars 70 the
sky,
And the silver moon 10 its journey
high;
The beetle lurcheth in huanming fight,
While the freely flashes across the
night;
Then cometh the hour Of sottest
That bringeth the babe to mothers
arms.
The night foldeth in as a drapery soft.
AS the far perfumes that the breezes
waft;
The world is there-but we are here
With lullaby. lullaby. low and clear.
Night sendeth the hour of all apart
Il bringeth the babe 10 mothers heart.

 Spantz gave him a whitening look. as much as to say that he was a fool to ask such a question in a place so public Without replying, he got to his feet.

 The American sank back in his chair Suddenly he became conscious of a disquieting feeling that some one was looking at him intently from behind He turned in his chair and found him self meeting the gaze of a ferocious looking. military appearing little man at Q table near by. His waiter ap peared at his elbow with the change.
 "Who the devil Is that old man at the table thereT demanded young Mir. King loudly.
 The waiter assumed look of ex- treme insolence. 'That is Baron Dan- gloss. minister of police. Anything more. sirY'
 "Yes. What's he looking so hard at me for? Does he think I'm a pick pocketT"
 "You know as much as I. sir" was all that the waiter said in reply. King pocketed the coin he had intended for the fellow and deliberately left the place. As he sauntered across the little square his gaze suddenly shifted to a second story window above the gun shop.
 The interesting young woman had cautiously pushed open one of the shutters and was peering down upon a trio of red coated guardsmen- Al most at the same instant her quick eager gaze fell upon the tall American now quite close 10 the horsemen- Ht saw her dark eyes expand as if witt surprise. The next instant he caugh' hls breath and almost stopped in hi tracks.

 Later on the prince in his khaki rid ing suit loped gayly down the broad mountain road toward GanlOok beside the black mare which carried John Tullis. He had told T'ullis of his vain glorious defense in the antechamber.

 Some day soon," said Tullis. You see, I'm not sure that she's receiving visitors these days. A witch is a very arbitrary person. Even princes have to send up their cards.'
 The witch's hovel was in the noun tain across the most rugged of the canyons and was to be reached only after the most hazardous of rides.

The dying spirit of romance famed up in his heart. His blood grew quick again and eager. He would not go home until he had sought out this land of fair women and sweet tradition.

 Where were the beautiful women he had read about and dreamed of ever since he left Teheran! On his soul. he had not seen half a dozen women in Edelweiss who were more than passably fair to look upon. True. he had to admit. the people he had seen were of the lower and middle classes-the shopkeepers and the shop girls. the hucksters and the fruit vend- CTS.

 A MEETING OF THE CABINET.
 AT this time the principality Of N Graustark was in a most "A prosperous condition Its af-
 fairs were under the control of an able ministry. headed by the venerable Count Halfont. The Duke of Perse. for years a resident of St. Pe- tersburg and a fnancier of high stand ing. had returned to Edelweiss soon after the distressing death of the latp Princess Yetive and her American hus Dand. and 10 him was intrusted the treasury portfolie.
 The financing of the great railroad project by which Edelweiss was to be connected with the Siberian line in the north fell to bis lot at time when no one else could have saved the little government from heavy losses or even bankruptcy.
