This is a hint to your friend that

"That thought of yours is sufficient
ly diplomatic. Stay, Count Duprel is
coming, and he will want to talk to
you"
At almost the same moment Santos
entered. The little man was trans
formed. His sturdy, round figure had
become thin. His whole being ex-
pressed the high tension under which
he was working. His face looked as
II he had brooded over his sorrows,
and had become almost sullen. His
eyes lit up, however. when they rested
on Rositta. She still had the power to
do with him what she would.
After greeting the Count Won Wer-
denstein he told him that sixteen aero
dromones were finished, tried and
stored away, and five more were In
the workshops. 1t was only a ques-
ton of two or more months until they
would be ready for action.

Rositta.

and started TO leave. He felt doubt.
full Of his course. He had vague, un.
formed fears that haunted him. But
nothing happened. His American spies
reported that Napoleon could not be
located.
Two weeks later he received news
that there was some uneasiness felt in
Washington in regard to the inexpli
cable absence Of Napoleon Edison
These reports were repeated day aftel
day.

His absence at first had been unno
ticed, as Astra felt that he would re
turn at any hour, and turned aside
the questions. But when the thirt
week began, and still they had nc
word from him, she could not bear Il
any longer. The gray-haired mother
who suffered even more than Astra
soothed her and said she would come

to the Crystal Palace at once. to be
with her.
That evening Mrs. Edison arriyed,
and embracing the wife of her son
she whispered: BE strong and brave.
my dear girl. You know Just as we'll
as do that he will come as soon as
he can. fear he has had an acci-
dent to his aerodromone. but my heart
tells me he is In no danger. Above
all, we must have trust in God!"
At Astra's request the various pa
pers treated the matter lightly.
Rositta was one who was really
baffied by the heightened absence Of
Napoleon. She and Santos talked
about 1t seriously, but the little count
was as puzzled as she. This disap-
pearance had not fitted into her plane.
She wanted to gain victory over Ma
| poleon, not over America.
Her ambitions were great, but one
Of the greatest was to humble Napo-
leon. She had figured out devilish
plan to destroy his base of supplies,
Ciryne. Even her husband shuddered
when she told about 1t. He thought
Of the many days he had spent among
the men there, and the pleasant COM
panions that he had left behind.
A tremendous bomb was to be con-
structed; bomb Of such size that its
explosion would cause genuine earth
quake. Great quantities Of the high
est grade explosives were to be placed
In large metal shell, which would be
dropped on the Island Of Ciryne and
blow 1t into space.
Ciryne was Napoleon's laboratory;
there were his aerodromones kept,
and II these were destroyed, he never
would be able to gain the victory. The
fact that Napoleon's mother and all
his mechanics were to be destroyed
did not influence Rositta's plans In the
least.
Seven weeks went by. The situation
was the same, except that the hotilla
Of twenty aerodromones was ready at
Suemeg and It's crew was practicing
maneuvers day after day. They were
working on one more machine, as Ro-
sitta was superstitious. believing that
the number twenty-one was her lucky
one.
The European monarchs had all
signed decree demanding the right
of restoring standing army, and this
demand had been sent to the peace
committee in Washington.
This request was couched in re-
spectful terms, but conveyed the infor-
nation that in case the same was re-
fused the European countries would
act according to their own convictions.
No mention was made Of the aerodro-
none feet, but American secret
agents had discovered the existence OF
this feet and shrewd reporter on
the Hourly Stylograph managed tq
gain the information. Whole pages
advertised the fact that It was ready
to swoop down upon the American
continent and conquer 1t. Then the
rival papers took 1t up and vivid fan
cies were printed; some declared that
Napoleon Edison was held prisoner
and would be compelled to Join the
European forces to save his life.
In the meantime the congress and
the peace committee considered the
European demand.
Amrosio Hale, Vice-president, deliv.
cred a great address, urging the union
to isolate the American continent
again.

His hesitating answer told Napo-

INSANE WOMAN
 FIGHTS POLICE
Miss Rebecca McCue, Who Claims She is Pinal County School Teacher, is Taken in Custody Pending Investigation

Miss Rebecca McCue, who told the
 police she is a school teacher from
 Pinal county, gave Policeman Toner
 the time of his life yesterday when
 he took her in custody on suspicion
 of being insane. With her hatpinS
 she attempted to stab him several
 times, with her finger nails she near
 ly succeeded in scratching out his
 eyes, and when as a last resort in
 subduing her the officer manacled her, she attempted to bite him upon the hands and arms. And when she was finally lodged in the wOmens cell in the police station, she continued her frenzy, throwing hot coffee on the officers when she was being fed and accusing them of persecution. Her condition is probably the most pitiabe of that of any woman who | has been locked up at the central 1 police station in many months. A woman of intelligence and some re- | finement, she seemed to have lost all | care for herself or her own personal welfare. She refused to say any thing more of herself than that she 1 had be teaching school in Pinal county
 Miss McCue has been in Phoenix al least four or five days Recently she applied at the police station for aid
 in securing room, claiming she had | been directed there by the associated | charities. This was later found to be 1 untrue. She w2s taken to a roomine | house and provided with a room pending an investigation into hel financial condition. Later she was 1 also provided with money with which
 to secure something to eat
 Practically nothing is known by | the officers of the history of the woman. She has nothing which would further identify her or give
 them a clue as to the whereabouts of l friends or relatives. She will be
 transferred to the county hospital to-
 day where an inquiry will be made | as to her sanity.

The special delegation of the off cials and friends of the Union Stock Yards company of Chicago who ar rived in Phoenix on Tuesday morning in the private car Republic" left early yesterday morning for Los An geles, San Diego and other coast points, after spending a most enjoy able time in the city.
 While the delegation did not attend the sessions of the American National Live Stock association, they mingled with the stOckmen in the hotel during | the reCeSses between sessions, and during the sessions proper spent their time riding over the valley in auto mobiles both for the purpose of enjoy l ing the delightful climate and getting a line on the valley as a possible feed ! ing ground for stock, and a possible supply point from which to initiate business.
 All the gentlemen were loud in their praises of the valley, and it's wonder ful prospects. w. F. Skinner, genera manager of the National Dairy eXpOsi- tion that is held in Chicago, was es- pecially pleased. He declared this tC be one of the finest dairy sections ht had ever seen.
 A. G. Leonard. president of the Union Stock Yards, said before leaV- ing, This trip has been a revelation tC me; I never expected to find such ( section, such a valley, nor such cattl, as I have seen since I have been here You may rest assured that l will come back to Phoenix at the first oppor- tunity.

Only urgent engagements on the Pacific coast and in the eas after that take us away this quickly | There are d few things I wish to commend before I leave. One is the excellent treatment we received iron J. C. Adams at his hotel another i' your beautiful valley, and the third i the cattle we have seen in the beauti full alfalfa pastures hereabouts.
