"It Is the case Of the willing horse;
l will not permit that my right-hand
man be worked to death-it must
stop"
Today, however. Francois had a
definite duty of responsibility. While
the Prince marched. gathering
strength at every yard, through the
town toward the Place d. Alton at its
farther side, Colonel Couard of the
third artillery had gone to proclaim
the great news to his regiment and to
hold them ready. In case of success
at the Place d Alton, Beaupre was to
go back and bring them to join the
Prince. In case of failure they were
to be his reserve. The Place d Alton
barracks lay between town and ram
parts, to be reached from the town
side only by narrow lane; but the
ramparts commanded with a large
open space the yard where the SOL
diers assembled. If the Prince entered
from the town side. from the street
Faubourg Pierre-only an escort could
go with him. II he went by the ram
parts the whole enthusiastic fourth
artillery might be at his back. This
then was the route chosen.
But as the Prince and the regiment
and the swinging shouting mass of
citizens made its way toward the
quarters, suddenly. too late, the off,

way with reinforcements and the
third might we'll hold the arsenal
against him but not gain 1t from him.
With his whole being concentrated
Francois thought The orders were
plain to lead the third artillery to join
the Prince on the ramparts. But there
are times in history when to obey or
ders is treachery. Was not this mo-
ment, heavy with the right or wrong
of his decision, one of them? Was 1t
not the part of a mind capable Of
greatness to know and grasp the flying
second of opportunity? Would not the
Prince reproach him, If he stupidity let
this one chance in thousand 60 by.
for servile fear of disobeying orders?
He had left his Highness safe with
two regiments at his back; this other
could do nothing at the Place d Alton
barracks but swell the ranks; here, by
turn Of hand, they might win for
the cause the very blood and bones
of success, mighty arsenal. and for
themselves honor and gratitude from
their Emperor. In Francois mind
was touch of innocent vanity that he
should have the power to render so
signal service, yet no thought at all
for himself or for the honor he might
gain or lose; intellectually he
weighed the reasons why or why not
it would be best for the Prince.
The aide-de-camp's voice broke in.
"My Colonel, beg you. implore you,
save Monsieur de Persigny. The
Prince loves him-he will be very
angry If he Is left helpless-they
threaten to execute him myself
heard-I impore you, Monsieur lie Col
onel. For the rest, it is indeed the
moment of fate to win the arsenal"
Francois face lit with a fire of
decision. "My Colonel, it is for the
Prince-it would be his will-we must
not let slip the gift of destiny. To
the arsenal"
And while orders rang out sharply
and the regiment wheeled into sliding
lines that doubled and parted and
flowed together again in an elastic
stream toward the looming arsenal,
Francois, with a quick word to De
Persigny's aide-de-camp, was writing
rapidly on bit of paper.
"You will take this to the Prince at
once" he ordered, and the young Off
Ger saluted, for he, too, knew, as most
of them did, this mans anomalous yet
strong hold on Prince Louis.
Francois rode again to the colonel's
side, and he did not doubt that he had
decided rightly.

and be not Marshal some day any
longer but Marshal of your empire
1t is asking much of one lifetime, above
all for man born peasant, is 1t
not? Yet of those three wishes one
wonderful fulfllment has come to me"
he gripped his letter closer-"and
one. believe tomorrow brings. Be-
fore tomorrow night"-his great eyes
were lifted toward the ceiling Of the
room, and In them was the rapt look
Of the child Of the farmhouse in the
Jura, a look Of seer Of visions, look
that caught at the Princes nerves, and
made him draw breath quickly.
Something above myself tells me"
Francois said slowly, and the words
came with languid power, as if his
personality were medium, that be-
fore tomorrow night the officers who
stand about you shall hail you EN-
peror over the body of man who lies
before you"
In the silence, the Princes watch
could be heard ticking. Francois shiv.
cred violently.
"Ugh!" he said, his teeth chattering
1T gives me 'crise de nerfs,' that
trick of vision-seeing. l do not like
it, and yet at times it seizes me. Why
should it come to a man happy as
ana man who has dared ask three

who holds one of them in his hand
he lifted the letter-"who sees another
in easy reach, and who," he smiled
brilliantly, who will be we'll content
without the third, my Prince, the first
two being his" He shivered again
is the night raw? It is as if l were in
grave, this GOODNESS" he said, look
ing about with a disturbed gaze, yet
my life is just beginning"
The Prince rose and tossed his cigar
to the fireplace. 1T is simply that you
are tired, Francois" he said in the
tranquil tones which no peril dis
turbed. "The nerves of us all are
stretched and yours are the finest
strung. Go to bed and at daylight you
will be warm enough, with the work
that awaits us. Sleep well-good
night, my friend"
Later, in the darkness of his cham
Der, Prince Louis lay awake, his mag
ination filled with the man whose dra-
matte personality appealed to him as
few had ever DONE He thought of his
own life, according to his lights not a
bad life, radically strong and radically
gentle, yet complicated, abnormal from
its start, with many shadows and
many stains; then of the crystal clear
ness of this others, with his three
| wishes in which he trusted as simply
as child would trust to the fairies. A
smile almost tender stole across the
mask-like features In the dark. There
is no doubt but the girl will marry the
marquis" he reflected. "Yet l am
glad left him his hope and his happi-
ness" A vision of Francois beatified
look rose before him.
"a man fights better So" the Prince
murmured aloud, and, his own sadness
forgotten in another mans joy, he fell
asleep.

CHAPTER xxxI.-continued.

Prince Louis saw the dawning or
CONSERVATION. Rapidly he considered.
Was it we'll to take away mans hap
piness and courage just before fight?
He remembered some words OF Fran
co.'s spoken three years before, words
whose dramatic baroness had struck
him. when a knight of the old time
went into battle" the young man had
said, che wore on his helmet the badge
of his lady, and the thought of her in
his heart. A man fights better So"
Very WELL This blind knight should
have his letter, with the meaning he
had read into it, for his lady's badge,
and he should fight tomorrow with the
thought of her in his heart. The let
ter suggested another meaning to So
phisticated Louis Bonaparte, but there
is no need to hasten the feet of I'M
happiness. The resonant French voice
spoke at last in an unused accent OF
cordiality and the Prince lied, with
ungrudging graciousness.
Mistaken, my Francois! Not at all.
The little bi!let-doux breathes love for
you in each line-there is no question!
But, mon ami, you have not finished
your story" So Francois explained
about the letter left with Lucy Hamp-
ton and its premature sending. THAT
has reached her now-she knows now
that l love her, she knows what has
really been my lifelong wish-she has
hurried this" and his hand crushed
the note tenderly-"she has hurried
this to me before the fight-that I
might know her love also-that ]
might fight better for you, my Prince
-Louis-with that Joy in my heart"
Prince Louis, his head thrown back,
his expressionless eyes watching the
rings of smoke which he pulled from
his mouth-ring after ring, mounting
in dream-like procession to the low
ceiling, considered again. Somewhere
in the chain of events of this love
affair his keen practical sense felt a
link that did not fit-a link forced into
connection. Vaguely he discerned how
it was-something had happened to
the Virginian letter-there had been
q confusion somewhere. To him the
four words of Alixe's postscript were
final. "Pietro sends his love-" A sub
conscious reasoning made him certain
that Pietro would not have come into
such letter if 1t had been indeed a
love-letter; that the three lines Of
writing just before the battle could
not have held another mans name, If
they had been written to the man
whom she loved. Very dimly. very
surely the Prince concluded these
things; and then he lowered his cigar,
and his gray dull eyes came down
from the ceiling and rested. kindly on
the radiant face. you are right. my
friend. 1t was an exquisite thought of
your lady-love to put this other weap-
on, this bright sword of happiness into
your hand, to fight with tomorrow.

CHAPTER xxxIII.
The AccoIade at Last.

It is a common tragedy that men,
being human, cannot see all sides of
q question; that a decision right in
one light may bring disaster in an
other. If events had stayed where he
left them, Francois Beaupre and Col
onel Couard and his regiment would
have won honor and eternal graft
tude from Louis Bonaparte for the
quarter of an hours work which made
the arsenal theirs. Events, instead of
standing still, or going forward. took
an unexpected sinister turn, not long
after Francois going.
The happy Prince, smiling the shad-
owy smile which made his face win
ming, stood in the center Of triumphant
turmoil; his new followers, the men
Of the forty-sixth, crowded about him
shouting, cheering, kissing his hands,
and the loyal fourth artillerymen fra
ternized. embraced, congratulated the
men of the line regiment. The narrow
courtyard was hubbub of rapturous
excitement, and the Princes officers
Montholon, Vaudrey, Voisin, Parquin,
D'Hunin, Querelles-these and others
whose names Frenchmen knew, sur
rounded the small figure which yet
had so much of royalty, and laughed
and chatted light-heartedly. In few
moments, when Colonel Laity's engi-
neers and the third artillery should
have arrived the Prince would have
five thousand men under his COM
mand. The great game was practical
ly won-Prince Louis was all but EN-
peror.
Suddenly, above the sea of sound,
commotion was heard at the farther
end of the barrack yard. The colonel
of the forty-sixth, Colonel Talandier,
had arrived. Very loyal to Louis Phil
lipe, very angry at the scene before
him, he would not believe the news.
He called excitedly, and the mems
voices died down as they saw him
gesticulating.
Soldiers" he cried, you are de-
ceived! This man for whom you are
shouting is an adventurer, an i'm
postor!"
In the shock of silence which fol-
lowed his words, another voice rang
out, clear and indignant, the voice of
a staff-officer whom they all knew.
ct is not the nephew of the EN-
peror! 1t is the nephew of Colonel
vaudrey! I recognize him!" the off,
Ger cried in a strong staccato, and
gasp as IL ice-water had been scat
tered went through the crowded
place.
There is nothing more absurd in his
tory than the instant effect Of this
quick-witted lie. Only with mer-
curial French mob, perhaps, could 1t
have succeeded, but 1t succeeded here
with hopeless swiftness. 1t flew from
mouth to mouth-they were cheated,
tricked; the Emperor's nephew, their
Prince, had not come; this young man
was a make-believe. substitute, the
nephew of an officer; some of the
soldiers who had shown most enthus-
iasm almost lost their minds now In
rage.
Colonel Talandier began to form his
men; the Prince, composed as ever,
yet earnest, swift, tried to rally his,
but 1t was impossible to start any
