The first raptures of the reunion
were over. Words took the place OF
mute expressions of love. Napoleon
began to tell his story:

smiled. "They have tried to surprise
us, and now we will surprise them. /"
His eyes rested lovingly on the two
women who were his nearest and
dearest.

that man is Napoleon Edison. You all

him and win, and then the world is

That same day while this infamous
thing was happening in Suemeg the
American Eagle slowly descended to
the roof of the Crystal Palace. It was
dusk and no one noticed its arrival.
The tall man who alighted from the
machine seemed weak, but he, fast
ened the machine, then slowly found
his way downstairs. After a gentle
tap on Astra's private door he entered.
Mother and wife were there.
Napoleon had returned at last.

What need have we of European

we can live on it. The Z-ray stations
have been kept In order and we can
easily cut ourselves off from those
warning countries. We will not be the
Joeers." So his address ran. He sat
down amid tremendous applause.
However, another orator arose and
propounded opposite reasons for open
ports and no determination was

ROSETTA had acquired great skill in
handling the aerodromone, and she
could execute the capturing act very

crew, which was composed OF men
from noble families.
These men admired their leader.

After successful maneuver day
Rositta gave the order to her men to
gather in the large hall. The hall was
the schoolroom where Santos taught
them the art of aviation In theory.
There were forty men in all-young
vigorous, brave and bold. When Ro-
sitta entered, followed by her hus-
band, a cheer rang out: "Hurrah flor
our princess!"
She walked to the platform, and her
clear voice rang through the hall:
