CHAPTER XIV.
The Chamber OF Horrors.


Arrived presently in the royal pal
ace and in the company not only Of
Count Frederick, but OF yet other no.
blemen and officials, King Michael re-
laxed his martial front under the
warming influence OF the wine on
which he so much relied.
They fed" he exclaimed again and
again, boastingly, as he referred to
the scenes which but now he had left.
"They fed before us like sheep, my
dear count. With myself to lead the
army-and you at my side-what
chance would they have? They knew
they had none, and took counsel Of
their wisdom for once. II they re-
main In that counsel, surely they will
stay behind their own walls, and not
give offense to our country. We would
annihilate them. A half hour more,
and we would have plundered their
city today. Their treasure would have
been ours!"
What treasure, your majesty" in
quired Count Frederick coldly Would
we go to war for that?"
For what else?" smiled the king.
"For liberty, justice, freedom, your
majesty"
Tut! tut! where do you get those
terms? A monk speaks! But l1sten,
did we not march to your rescue?
"Yes, your majesty, l am not un-
mindful and not unthankful But still
we lack the clue which alone can make
war possible or desirable-the clue
which alone has back of it motives
worthy of king and of people"
well, well, what does all this mean
them" rejoined Michael, irritated.
Where do we arrive? What is it that
you ask?"
81 can ask no questions and answer
none, until we have found once more
the young American, your majesty"
King Michael smiled in self-satisfac.
tion at last
"Ah, well, that is easy" said he. 81
have said that she is, or should be,
here in this palace. 1t is true she

Count Frederick waited for no
change in the royal will, but bowed
