In the Masters Workshop.

In the Masters Workshop.
The following day was a long one
for Astra; hope, Joy and the e1pecta-
ton of seeing the man who was able
to do 80 much made her restless.
Shortly before noon report came
from the z ray generating station ad-
vising that peculiar vibration seemed
to be forcing the rays backward. Or
ders were given to establish the new
2 zone, also to watch for further die
turbances and, after a lapse of six
hours, to remove the first line of re-
sistance, leaving the new z ray to
meet the invaders.
Astra was happy indeed when she
descended to the library to await Ma
poleon's arrival. As the hands of the
chronometer pointed to ten, she list
ened intently. The main door was
opened Just as the clock gave forth
It's tinkling warning. A moment later
Napoleon Edison was admitted to the
library and Astra hurried toward him
with welcoming hands.
She saw at glance that his healthy
bronze complexion was gone and that
he was thinner. She also noted the
unfamiliar clothes he was wearing.

A wave Of rage swept over her
when she saw his Hesitation and deci-
sion, but she whispered softly: II

Nov we are becoming real conspir-
ators; be prepared so that at mo-
ment's notice you can leave"
Where will you take me?"
Wherever my stars lead!" was his
enigmatical answer, as he left the roof
and went to his room to sleep.
Night came again, the captain left
them alone at $50, saying that he
had some writing to do.
Chevalier di Leon watched tho sky,
which was somewhat cloudy; there
was a strong wind that drove the rag
ged wanderers to and fro.
The winking star he had observed
several times before was stationed in
the eastern sky.
Neither OF the prisoners talked;
both seemed to be fully occupied with
their thoughts. Suddenly di Leon
turned to the dreaming countess: Are
you willing to leave with me tonight,
in half an hour?"
But how absurd that is, chevalier!"

room. and from that moment the chev-
alier became energy itself. First of
all. he locked the door of the reading
room, then ran into his own room,
picked up his bundle of belongings
and hastily placed it on the roof. He
arranged several heavy objects around
the trapdoor leading to the reading
room and then sent rocket from his
signal gun toward the winking star.
The light that followed was taken
as a warning by the superstitious SOL
diers on duty below; the red and white
stripes of the American flag high up
in the air. and the silvery stars on the
blue background completed the flag
that was causing 80 much annoyance
to Europe.
The red star above twinkled reas-
suringly and q second later the roof
OF the prison was flooded with strong
light. The chevalier ran down and
knocked at the countess door. "Are
you ready"
Il am" she replied and appeared
with small suitcase in her hand.
Just as they opened the door lead

scrutiny, opened and Captain Euler

"Yes, my dear captain. I have 1ust

Five minutes later, at an immense
height, a fash occurred. Directly
after the fash spiral light began to
descend, slowly; then, after several
minutes, an explosion followed that
put an end to the dropping spiral of
fire and above them small white
cloud puff slowly fell downward.
"That was a beauty!" commented
Captain Euler.
Have you any more?" inquired the
countess.
T am sorry, madam, but this Is the
last for tonight" answered Chevalier
di Leon, with eyes turned steadily
toward the southeast. They all sat
down, and Captain Euler and the
countess started a conversation In
which the chevalier refused to take
part; he was watching the sky and
the. stars. 1t was much later than
usual when he returned to his gilt
cage, but he was satisfied at last: he
had seen a star that winked at him

ache.
Shall call the post doctor?" asked
Captain Euler, but the chevalier de-
clined.
When in his sleeping-room he looked
over the contents of his small baggage
and selected number of articles that
he packed into one bundle. Then he
left the ROOM.
The reading-room was the one that
was connected with the outer world
by the stairway that ran to the roof.
Tho chevalier stepped quickly to the
door leading to the corridor and list
ened; he could hear the sentry walk
ing up and down. He saw with salts
faction that the door could be locked
on the inside with key and bolts; then
he examined the door that led to the
roof. It was a heavy door, that could
be locked only from the inside. He
silently crept up the stairs and peered
into the inclosure; under one Of the
plants, in the shade. was the countess
reading. There were a number of
heavy objects with which the door
could be barricaded.
He quietly descended, without being
seen by the countess, and inspected
her room. Apparently finding every
thing to his satisfaction, he picked up
q book from the table and Joined the
countess.
"Are you feeling better, my dear
