Astra and Rositta.

The excitement caused by Eapole-
on's encounter with the enemy was in
describable. The automatic electro
stylograph on board the American
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
shown and the subsequent destruction
Of the monoplanes. Napoleon Edison's
name was In large print on every
board. The Hourly Stylograph said
God bless our deliverer!" The Amer.
leans comment was 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
poleon's success more sincerely than
Astra as she sat in her library with the
Countess Rosiny.
Astra's kindness toward the countess
had not soothed the pain she suffered.

WHOLE SEED MUST BE USED.
Farmers Advised BY Grubb to Plant
Potatoes Whole.

used." Eugene Grubb tells Colorado
growers. Never cut a potato for
seed. I did not find successful po-
tato grower in Europe who cut seed.
and the most successful crops from
the irrigated West last year were
from whole seed.
whole seed should be planted fif-
teen inches apart in the row, because
larger number of tubers are set per
plant than with cut seed.
For growing seed select a piece of
ground on which potatoes have not
been grown for five years and that
has been in alfalfa or other grass.
Get potatoes for planting on this
plot that are as free from disease as
possible, and true to the type of the
variety.
Select potatoes TX to 21k inches in
diameter.

CHAPTER x.-Contlnued.

The eagle fingered above the right
wing Of the first line of dreadnoughts.
Napoleon could inflict any damage he
chose. He could almost count the
number Of men aboard each vessel.
Werdenstein gave hurried orders. and
watched eagerly for their execution.
A few minutes later two armored
monoplanes glided up from the Gag
ship and turned toward the eagle.
Napoleon must have suspected their
intention. for he circled higher and
higher up. The bats followed the
eagle: each monoplane carried four
men. each Of whom carried small cali
her. mitrelious bombs and other am
munition of war.
Still the eagle went higher and
higher. lowering above the north wing
OF the long line of war boats. 1t was

tne Two planes mad opened fire: he
was 30 close to them that the bullets
fell on his aerodromone like hail. The
result was surprising. The deadly mis-
siles rebounded from the sides without
leaving mark on the glittering body.
Napoleon had cleverly led them d.
rectly in front Of the flagship, 80 that
the scene was enacted before the eyes
OF the count and his staff. It was mar
velous, the greatest play a mans eyes
had ever rested upon.
Napoleon turned to face the ascend
ing bat. The count saw him reach up
to lever that he had not used before.
He hesitated for a moment, but when
the first bomb was thrown at him he
pulled the lever; fash followed. Zig
gag lines of lightning burst forth and
the once armored monoplane was shat
tered into a thousand bits. Its fate
seemed to shatter the nerve Of the en-
gineer on the other plane, for he
turned and raced for the flagship. 1t
was too late. Napoleon pulled the
lever again and 1t followed its COM
rade into space.
The count was pale; he had been
given a terrible example of his enc
my's power, still he did not turn back.
Orders were flashed to the two boats
nearest the eagle to open fire with
their heavy gune. Napoleon read the
order on his plate and was sad, but
he knew that the only way to save
the masses from humiliation was by
a painful operation.
His right hand was on the lever,
the left on the wheel; as the guns be-
low thundered. the bird man was far
away. and their shells were wasted.
But the next moment brought the
avenging answer; lightning after light.
ming darted toward the two boats, the
powder magazines exploded and the
dreaded giants were wrecks, sinking.
A few minutes later the boats were
gone. leaving a mass Of floating debris
and dead men.
The Count Won Werdenstein looked
at the scene helplessly. For the first
time in his life he realized how puny
he was.
He looked for the eagle. but 1t had
disappeared.
Boats were put out at once to res.
cue those who had not been killed by
the explosions: but the experiences OF
that day had spread terror over the
whole feet and the effect was demor-
alizing.
The Count Won Werdenstein ordered
all the commanders to gather at the
flagship. for he felt that he had to de-
eide on some action. He paced the
bridge Of the Brigitta. The navy and
army under his command. that he had
thought great enough to conquer the
whole world. had been defeated by a
| single man.
When the council OF war began the
count stood to talk. but before he said
word message from one Of the
transport boats was handed him. 1t
| read:
I'VE can see the other boats toward
the east. but we cannot communicate
with them. They are trying to reach

thousands of spectators to believe 1t
