official and unofficial dispatches from
the Balkans. at least $4,000 men have
been killed in the fighting between
BuIgarians on one side and Servians,
Greeks and Montenegrins on the
other.
It Is a certainty. however, that these
figures are exaggerated. as the Ser
Wan and Greek losses have invaria-
bly, come from Bulgarian sources,
while estimates Of Bulgarian casual

Prof. H. C. Plummer, royal astron-

tances, have a common center Of
gravity, and in response to gravita-
ton all move in unison like a stupen-

stars, instead Of being nearly circu-

AS they listened In trance Of burn
ing hope which obliterated all else,
this noise and all others near and dis
tant, was suddenly lost in a loud clat'
ter Of writhing and twisting boughs
which set the forest in q roar and
seemed to heave the air about them.
A wind had swooped down from the
east, bending everything before It and
rafting the huge oval on which their
eyes were fixed as though II would
tear II from its hinges.
The three caught at each others
hands in dismay. The storm had come
Just on the verge Of the enterprise,
and no one might guess the result

ed In that gentleman's ear. what time
is It now?"
Mr.. Challoner, disengaging himself
from their mutual grasp, knelt down
by the lantern to consult his watch.
"One minute to eight" he shouted
back.
The forest was now a pandemonium.
Great boughs, split from their parent
trunks, fell crashing to the ground In
all directions. The scream Of the wind
reused echoes which repeated them
selves, here, there and everywhere. No
rain had fallen yet, but the sight Of the
clouds skurrying pell-mell through the
glare thrown up from the shed, Gre
ated such havoc in the already over
strained minds Of the three onlookers.
that they hardly needed, when with a
clatter and crash which at another
time would have startled them into
flight, the swaying oval before them
was whirled from its hinges and
thrown back against the trees already
bending under the onslaught Of the
tempest. Destruction seemed the nat
ural accompaniment of the moment,
and the only prayer which sprang to
Oswald's lips was that the motor
whose throb yet fingered In their
blood though no longer taken in by
the ear, would either refuse to work
or prove insufficient to lift the heavy
car into this seething tumult Of war
ring forces. His brothers life hung
in the balance against his fame, and
he could not but choose life for him.
Yet, as the multitudinous sounds about
him yielded for a moment to that
brothers shout, and he knew that the
moment had come. which would soon
settle all, he found himself staring at

an anticipation which held in 1t as

CHAPTER xxxVII.
His Great Hour.

His Great Hour.
Saturday night at eight o'clock.
So the fiat had gone forth, with no
concession to be made on account of
weather.
As Oswald came from his supper
and took a look at the heavens from
the small front porch, he was deeply
troubled that Orlando had remained
so obstinate on this point. For there
were ominous clouds rolling up from
the east, and the storms In this region
Of high mountains and abrupt valleys
were not light, nor without danger
even to those with feet well-planted
upon mother earth.
II the tempest should come up be-
fore eight!
Mr.. Challoner, who, from some mys-
terious impulse Of bravado on the part
Of Brotherson, was to be allowed to
make the third in this small band Of
spectators, was equally concerned at
this sight, but not for Brotherson. His
fears we're for Oswald, whose slow.
ly gathering strength could lily bear
the strain which this additional anx-
iety for his brothers. life must impose
upon him. As for Doris, she was in
a state OF excitement more connected
with the past than with the future.
That afternoon she had laid her hand
In that Of Orlando Brotherson, and
wished him we'll. She! in whose breast
still fingered "reminiscences Of those
old doubts which had beclouded' his
image for her at their first meeting.
She had not been able to avoid It.
His look was a compelling one. and It
had demanded thus much from her;
and-a terrible thought to her gentle
spirit-he might be going to his

tive aviator that they were to watch
for the ascent nom the mouth OF the
grassy road leading IN 10 the hangar.

quarter to eight and await the stroke
and the Arrears rise. That time was
near. and Mr.. Challoner, catching q
glimpse of Oswald's pallid and unnat
urally drawn features, as he set down
the lantern he carried, shuddered with
foreboding and wished the hour
passed.
Doris watchful glance never left
the face whose lightest change was
more to her than all Orlando's hopes.
But the result upon her was not to
weaken her resolution, but to strength
en- It. Whatever the outcome Of the
next few minutes, she must stand
ready to sustain her invalid through
It. That the darkness of early eve
ming had deepened to oppression, was
unnoticed for the moment. The fears
Of an hour past had been forgotten.
Their attention was too absorbed in
what was going on before them, for
even a glance overhead.
Suddenly Mr. Challoner spoke.

has asked to 90 up with him."
It was Oswald who answered.
He has never told me. He has
kept his own counsel about that as
about everything else connected with
this matter. He simply advised me
that l was not to bother about him
any more; that he had found the as

But Oswald did not seem satisfied.
He continued to look at her in vague
concern.
