Tho Count Won Werdenstein was in
despair. He and all his boats had
been imprisoned between two 2 rays
for a week He had held councils Of
war and the quickest boats and air
crafts were sent out to break through
the lines OF resistance. He was ready
to retire to Europe.
The word retreat did not seem 90
shameful as 1t had.
They had not seen the eagle during
this time, but the arrival of the obso'
lete men-ofwar told the count that
some preparation had been made by
his enemy to end this terrible state
Of affairs.
The eagles appearance was report
ed early one morning. 1t came mates
tically sliding downward from a great
height, flying the beautiful tricolor
flag of liberty. This time Santos was
at the wheel. Napoleon and a woman
stood behind him.
The bird few directly to the flag
ship. Not even the flag OF truce was
shown. When 1t reached the Brigitta
the eagle dropped down toward the
count, who stood on the bridge. His
face was pale and careworn, and his
eyes spoke Of many sleepless nights.
"Brigitta, ahoy!" shouted Napoleon
through the speaking tube. "a mes.
sage for the commander" He dropped
a large sealed letter at the counts feet.
The eagle then turned and disappeared
in the clouds toward the west.
Thought and r. had been put into
the message. It was a great docu-
ment in itself, but it's greatest beauty
was in its expression of brotherly love,
in It's magnanimity In extending mercy
to the enemy.
ROSETTA was present when that doc
ument was read finally. She was one
Of the last to touch It before 1t was
carefully wrapped In the silk covers;
1t was she who placed the great seal
on the imposing envelope.
The count took the message and re-
tired into his cabin, where nobody
dared disturb him. He cut the enve'
lope, unfolded the silk wrapping and
began to read. It was a long. concise
resume Of the present state Of affairs;
the chancellor was touched by the
kindness of his enemies. Notwith-
standing the degrading defeat, he
knew now that the loss would not be
as great as he feared.
The document decided upon the fob
lowing:
1. The whole navy of the confeder1
ate European nights shall be deliv-
cred into the hands of Admiral John
Earle, the American commander, who
will see that all men and officers are
safely returned to European ports.
2. The war vessels shall be the prop
erty Of the United Republics Of Amer
lea, in consideration of which the said
United Republics Of America will pay
a sum of money to be decided upon,
however, not less than one-third of the
actual value involved.
8. The European armies shall be I'm
mediately disarmed and the men In
service shall be returned to their
homes.
4. No other force, save for policing
and a number of bodyguards for the
reigning rulers, shall be allowed to
exist in any of the countries. The
United Republics of America will see

their families, according to the house

Thus reckoned, the entire host of Is
rael might be estimated at about 3d.
600. Even this was a goodly host to
be the descendants of Jacob in but lit
tie more than two centuries. That the
Israelites were very prolific vas evil

sought to destroy their children, fear
full that eventually they would out
number the Egyptians.
Necessity of the Miracles.
A miracle Is not necessarily q VIOLA
ton of a law of Nature. An unusual
occurrence, indicating an interposition
of Divine Power In human affairs,
would be a miracle, even though 1t con-
formed to natural laws. God rarely
works miracles except in necessity.
Three roads led out of Egypt in the
direction of Palestine; but as a mill
tary wall extended from the Mediter-
ranean to the Red Sea to protect
against invading armies, these roads
had access into Egypt only through
strong iron gates.
One of these roads led through the
country of the Philistines, to pass
through which so large a body of peo-
pie would have been prohibited. The
second road led through a sandy des-
ert, furnishing neither %provender nor
water. The third road was the one
which the ~Israelites took, leading
-the-wild-m -reginns- of
Sinai, where they found pasturage.
Several days elapsed before the Is
raelites reached the Red Sea. Mean
time, Pharaoh perceived that the Is
raelites had wandered about as though
undecided which road to take, and con
Guided that 1t would be easy to bring
them back. The gates of the wall were
closed, and several hundred chariots
and footmen sent to pursue.
Meantime, the Israelites had passed
through two mountain ranges, up
against the northern arm of the Red
Seattle Gulf of Suez. Apparently
they had gone into a pen, from which
there was no escape. Divine provi-
dence arranged that a heavy pillar of
cloud, or fog, lowered over the Egyp-
tan camp, while there was a bright
light In the Israelites' camp. Thus the
Egyptians were delayed, and the Is
raelties moved on until they same to
the Sea and beheld that they were
hemmed in. Then they cried to the
Lord and to Moses, requesting to be per
mitted to return to Egyptian bondage.
But the word Of the Lord through
Moses was that soon they would see
Jehovah God bring deliverance. Mean
time, the north wind began to blow,
and gradually the waters receded
southwark, u%ncovering a ledge and
sand bar, upon which the Israelites
crossed to the other side. The be-
logged Egyptians followed, possibly
not realizing that they were on land
usually covered by water.
AS they progressed into the moist
sand, the Egyptian chariot wheels be-

Eagle had recorded the action of the
fleet and had made a copy Of the
counts answer to Americas desires.
The attack on the aerodromone was

of the monoplanes. Napoleon Edison's
name was In large print on every
board. The Hourly Stylograph said
stGod bless our ~deliverer!" The Amer
hcan's comment was 1.-THE hero OF
America" He was compared to Wash
ington, to Lincoln and many other
great American patriots. His name
was on the lips of every citizen.
No one watched the helioboard with
such interest and none prayed for Ma
Ipoleon's success more sincerely than

Countess Rosiny.
