LOOKING FOR AN EYE.
~HE witch was haranguing her
huddled audience, cursing the
soldiers, laughing gleefully in
the faces Of her stately, scorn-
full guests, greatly to the Irritation OF
Baron Dangloss, toward whom she
showed an especial attention.
Tullis was holding the prince in his
arms. Colonel Quinnox stood before
them, keeping the babbling, leering
beldame from thrusting her face close
to that Of the terrified boy. The Count
ess Marlanx, pale and rigid, her Won
drous eyes glowing with excitement,
stood behind John Tulhs.
With incredible swiftness the storm
passed. Almost at its height there
came a cessation Of the roaring tenn
pest, the downpour was checked, the
thunder died away and the lightning
trickled off into faint flashes. The sky
cleared as If by magic. The exhibit
ton, If you please, was over!
1T is the most amazing thing I've
ever seen," Dangloss said over and
over again.
The Countess Marlanx was trem-
bling violently. Tullis, observing this,
tried to laugh away her nervousness.

said. you can't believe she brought

Ten minutes later the cavalcade
started down the rain swept road to-
ward the city, dry blankets having
been placed across the saddles occu-
pied by the ladies and the prince. The
witch stood In her doorway, laughing
gleefully, inviting them to come often.
"Come again, your highness" she
croaked sarcast1cally.

Down through the lowering shades
rode the princes party swiftly, even
gayly by virtue of relaxation from the
strain Of weird half hour. No one
revealed the slightest sign Of appre-
hension arising from the mysterious
demonstration in which nature had
taken @ hand
Truxton King, for reasons best
known to himself, soon relapsed into
thoughtful, eontemplative silence.

disappointed. When the gallant start
