CHAPTER xi.

The villa d'Orleans proved TO be a
handsome house of white stone, stu
ated in extensive and well-groomed
grounds, on a height outside the town,
overlooking the Mediterranean. So
complete and elegant seemed the es
tablishment, indeed, viewed from with
out or within, that O'Rourke's suspic-
ions were stimulated and his certainty
that he was being played with resolv-
ed into pretty definite conviction
as he waited in the broad hallway.
1t was inconceivable that man like
Des Trebes, so reduced as to be un-

stealing SO considerable a sum as

In the course of time, as the vicomrs
had predicted, the Honorable Bertie

CHAPTER x.

II was high noon when O'Rourse
drove up before the Palace OF the
Governor-General. Weary, dusty and
travel-stained as he was, he hesitated
no instant about sending in his name
and requesting an interview with the
representative of Frances sovereign
power.
Disappointment awaited him at the
very outset; disappointment In the
shape Of word that his excellency was
away But the name of O'Rourke was
one we'll and favorably known in the
province, and secured him an invita-
tion to ascend to the Governors offi ce
and state his business--if he cared
to do soto the gubernatorial secre-
tary.
Upon consideration he accepted, and
little later was seated in broad,
low, cool room in the old Moorish
palace, the affable secretary a
young, lively and engaging French
man-solicitously sounding him as to
his errand.
1t was obviously the office of a man
of great affairs, presenting an eminent

In high feather with himself
O'Rourke entertained his companions
with running Are of pleasantries for
the balance of the darkened hours
And he touched both more than once
with the rapier-point of his wit and
irony, and had the pleasure of seeing
both squirm in impotent rage. They
cut wretched figures, two against one,
yet failures, while he taunted them in
one breath, with the next declared
himself their captive. Toward the end
the reserve which the vicomte i'm
posed upon the Honorable BERTHE was

with raw nerves upon his tormentor

be trying to make me believe-which

ceeded in stealing the Pool of Flame,

the earth, If need be-"
He eyed them refectively during q
moment or two made interesting by
Glynn's desperate attempts TO blurt
out indiscretions against the prohibit
ton Of the vicomte: something which
the older man enforced crudely by
clapping his hand across the English
mans mouth, as well as by whisper
ing savagely IN his ear.
But there'll be no need" continued
the Irishman, when Glynn was calm.
Let's consider the matter dispassion-
ately, presupposing that ye have the
stone. Well. what then? Ye dare not
attempt to sell it-'twould result In

1T does not seem to strike mon
