CHAPTER XVIII.
A c.hanqe Of Plan.

That day and the next Westerling
had no time for strolling in the gar
den. His Only exercise was a few
periods of pacing on the veranda. Tur-
cas-. as tfrelessly Industrious as ever,
developed an increasingly quiet insist
ence to leave the responsibility of de-
cisions about everything of Importance
to chief who was becoming increas-
ingly arbitrary. The attack on Enga-
dir being tho jewel of Westerling's
own planning, he was disinclined to
risk success by deIegating authority,
which also meant sharing the glory of
victory.
Bouchard's note, though officially dis
missed as a matter of pathology. would
not accept dismissal privately. In
flashes Of distinctness 1t required to
him between reports of the progress
Of preparations and directions as to
dispositions. At dusk Of the second
day, when all the guns and troops had
their places for the final movement un-
der cover of darkness and he rose
from his desk, the thing that had
edged its way into a crowded mind
took possession of the premises that
strategy and tactics had vacated. 1t
passed under the same analysis as his
work. His overweening pride. so SEN
sitive to the suspicion of a conviction
that he had been fooled, put his rela-
lions with Marta in logical review. He
had fallen in love in the midst of war.
A cool and intense impotence pos
sessed him to study her in the light
of his new skepticism, when, turning
the path of the first terrace, he saw
her watching the sunset over the crest
of the range.
She was standing quite still, slim,
soft shadow between him and the light,
which gilded her figure and quarter
profile. Did she expect him? he won
dered. Was she posing at that in
slant for his benefit? When she
turned, her face in the shadow, the
glow of the sunset seemed to remain
in her eyes, otherwise without express
sion, yet able to detect something IN
usual under externals as they ex-
changed commonplace of greeting.
"Well, there's change in our Off
cial family. We have lost Bouchard-
transferred to another post!" said
Westerling.
Marta noted that, though. he gave
the news casual turn. his scrutiny
sharpened.
rs that so? I can't say that my
mother and I shall be sorry" she re
marked. HE was always glazing al

the rest of the staff was immersed in
the activity of the preparations for the
attack on EEgadir. He knew that he
could not sleep if he lay down. So he
spent the night at work. In the morn
ing his successor, young man whom
he himself had chosen and trained,
Colonel Bellini, appeared, and the
fallen man received the rising man
with forced official courtesy.
'In my own defense and for your
aid" he said, II show you copy of
what / have just written to General
Westerling."
A brief note it was, in farewell, be-
ginning with conventional thanks for
Westerling's confidence in the past.
81 am punished for being right" it
concluded ''It is my belief that Miss
Galland sends news to the enemy and
that she draws it from you without
your consciousness of the fact. / tell
you honestly. Do what you will with
me-"
1t took more courage than any act
of his life for the loyal Bouchard to
dare such candor to a superior. See
ing the patchy, yellow, bloodless face
drawn in stiff lines and the abysmal
stare of the denp-set eyes in their
bony recesses, Bellini was swept with
a wave of sympathy.
Thank you, BoHchard. You've been
very fne!" said Bellini as he grasped
Bouchard's hand, which was icy cold.
my duty-my duty, in the hope that
we shall kill two Browns for every
Gray who has fallen- that we shall
yet see them starved and besieged
and crying for mercy in their capital"
replied Bouchard Re saluted with a
dismal, urgent fornfslity and stalked
out of the room with the tread of the
ghost of Hamlet's father.
The strange impression that this
farewell left with Bellini still fingered
when, few moments later, Wester-
ling summoned him. Not alone the
diffidence of a new member of the
staff going into the presence accounted
for the stir in his temples, as he wait
ed till some papers were signed be-
fore he had VVesterling's attention.
Then Westerling picked up Bouchard's
note and SHOOK his head sadly.
Poor Boucbard! You can see for
yourself" and he handed the note to
Bellini. II should have realized ear
lier that it was case for the doctor
and not for reprimand. Mad! Poor
Bouchard! Ife hadn't the ability or
the resiliency of mind for his task, as
l hope you have, colonel"
81 hope so. sir" replied Bellini.
'Tve no doubt you have" said Wes-
terling. "YoA are my choice!"

LanStron confesSes it is true and SHOWS
her a telephone which Feller has con-
cealed in a secret passage under the tower
for use to benefit the Browns In war

Btaff's professional respect for Turcas.
After a silence and a survey of the
faces around, he added with senten-
tious effect: "And was right about
Bordir!"
To this argument there could be no
answer. The one stroke of general
ship by the Grays, who, otherwise, had
succeeded alone through repeated
mass attacks, had been Westerling's
hypothesis that had gained Bordir in
q single assault.

roar, the surface Of ice that has GOV.

point, broke away and slowly swept
down stream early Sunday morning.
When Front street residents threw
open their windows at daylight sun
day they saw the river with only a
block of ice floating here and there as
an evidence that ice ever existed on
the crest of the big stream. Through
out the day Of Saturday. the ice on
the river kept constantly cracking
and many were Of the belief that it
would go sailing down the stream be-
fore midnight. The ice held on until
shortly after midnight when a great
er portion Of it bid Fort Madison
farewell
