CHAPTER XXI.



Roleau and Kitty learned soon
enough that in a race of the best Of
horses against good motor car the
former has small chance. They heard
the chug of the motor coming swift
ly on. In turn those in the car
could hear the hoof-falls of the fee
ing horses. The fugitives had hur-
ried to the rough country at the edge
of the desert, but guided by a reck-
less driver the speeding car clung
close to them.
A sudden exclamation from Roleau
came back to her after time. He
pulled his horse up strongly and she
herself reined in just in time. Ahead
of them lay the brink of sheer drop
of unknown depth.
"Pull off," cried Roleau. Get to
one side and let them come-let them
come on!"
She swerved quickly aside just in
time, and pulled up at the brink.
There she was the witness of a sud-
den tragedy.
The men in the car, their eyes fixed
only on the two whom they pursued,
did not see the brink of the bank in
time. Throttle wide open, they came
on at speed. Too late they realized
what was ahead The car sped out
into space-how far, neither OF Its
occupants ever had time to know.
Roleau's horse dropped into running
water as boldly he sprang in out ahead
of the car. Saved by his horse, he
swan 1t to the bank. Not SO fortunate
those in the car. The vehicle turned
over even as 1t fell, and dropped-a
drop of many feet, pinning them under
it beneath the surface of the stream.
They we're lost hopelessly, for had the
car not crushed them they must at
once have drowned, thus imprisoned.

We can! will be safer at the hotel"
And so, an hour later, she gave the
management of the Ritz yet more
cause for wonder. when. in the early
hours Of the morning, bedrsggled,
disheyeled. pale, she and her unpre-
possessing attendant pulled up once
more in the street in front of the door
In her own room, after a certain
time devoted 10 her toilet, which left
her more at peace with herself Kitty
sat for time pOndering. Yes she
once more had half the coin-that half
given to her by the king. So far, so
good. But after all, she was as far
from the ultimate success OF her
ierrand as ever she had been. Her
own half Of the coin-that which she
had brought with her from America
where was it? In the possession Of a
certain, tall, strong mana man who
had smiled when dangers threatened
him-a man she hated with all her
soul, as she now persuaded herself.
She ought to hate him with all her
heart-yes, she was sure Of that
Where was he now? At least she had
eyened matters with him. Once he
had left her helpless in the desert
now in turn she had left him the pris-
oner of ruthless men. Perhaps he
never again would see the light Of day
his life even now might be forfeit,
for all she knew, If so, she would have
been the cause of all that.
They may kill him." said Kitty to
herself. Il could not endure the
thought of that-it would be my own
fault. / will not admit that it was his
fault / was used so cruelty by his
man. He himself has laid no hand on
me until this very highland then not
in rudeness. Indeed, for all know,
had he not come when he did, myself
might have paid the forfeit he may be
paying now"
Kitty paused for a time to look at
her own face in the glass. 1t was very
pale, very unhappy.
Il must set him free!" said she with
sudden resolve to herself "There has
been life enough lost over this already
his must not be added. l will help
to get him free"

CHAPTER xxllI.


Count Sachlo and His Friends.
Far across the neutral lands, beyond
the desert of lntergraffen, in his hunt
ing lodge at the edge of the forest,
Count Sachio for long hours of uncer-
tainty had nursed his own wrath and
disappointment at the denouement of
the scenes which he had seen take
place about him. Pacing up and down.
refusing food or drink, his rage always
turned toward the unhappy agent RuA
dolph, his unsuccessful messenger.
you, Rudolph of Grahoffen," he ex-
claimed at last, you should have died
rather than betray me! All, you be-
trayed our country as WELL"
The man addressed, now practically
prisoner, and If not an object of sus-
picion at least one of hostility, sat
moody and unhappy in the main room
of the lodge.
Il can say no more, excellency,"
said he. Il failed, it is true. But you
do not count the skill and power of
those who are arrayed against u.s."

stood row Of three drawers OF rose
wood. all beautifully fitted.
The eye Of Kitty caught these as she
sat deliberately engaged in her dis
tasteful but absorbing task She
drew out all three OF these drawers
and put them on the desk lid before
her, examining each in turn. She
wondered why she was glad to find
there were no letters from any other
woman-yes. here was one-but the
writing was that of an old woman,
she was sure. And here were certain
rings, seals, trinkets. a miniature on
ivory-even a tight curled ring Of gray
hair. silken and delicate.
She sat despondent after all her
search. The half coin was not here!
She had failed once more. obviously
at her wits end-for now she knew
not where to look further in the room
she sat gazing at the three little
rosewood drawers before her.
Suddenly an idea came TO her mind
She picked up one of the drawers, and
stepping to the side Of the cabinet,
measured the depth OF the drawer
against that of the upper case which
had contained it. 1t was shallower
than the full depth OF the desk by
some three inches.
Hurriedly she stopped down in front
of the desk, dropping her eyes to the
level of the drawers, which in the
cunning of the maket had been placed
precisely where the level of the hu.
man eye would not be apt to fall.
She peered back into the recess from
which she had drawn the three tight.
fitting drawers. Beyond them she saw
three little ivory knobs.
An exclamation escaped her. Not
for nothing, then, had been her own
experience In antiques. She knew
something of the cunning the old max.
ers put into secret drawers and spaces
In some of their furniture.
She thrust in her hand, grasped one
of the tiny ivory knobs, and drew It
gently toward her, 1t was as she had
thought-there was a row Of three
shallow secret drawers In the back of
the desk, hidden by the three larger
ones which originally she had drawn
out Not one time in fifty would any
one suspect the presence of these Sc
cret compartments. The work OF the
old cabinetmaker was beautifully done
throughout. It had been a master
mind, and cunning one, which had
designed 1t and executed II,
A strange conviction came TO Kitty
that now she was at the end OF her
quest. Hurriedly her fingers turned
over the contents of the little recepta-
cles. One held yet another miniature
beautiful thing-of a lady whose
high and aristocratic features remind
ed her of some face, she could not at
first tell whose. There was nothing
else.
The second was also empty-just an
address or so In faded yellow papers,
treasured for some purpose, she knew
not what and could not ask.
The last drawer was filled to the top
with tissue paper which had been
crushed down. Her hands half.trem-

,"You tried-what is that? Rather
say you failed, for that is the main
thing"
"But, excellency," spoke up another
man after a time, a friend of Sachio,

i
At the Presbyterian church 10 this
city on December % was performed
one Of the most interesting and beau
tiful weddings of the year. The parties
married were DR.. John Morris and
Miss Jeanette Norman, both prem
inent and popular young people of this

with ferns, palms and evergreen. In
the presence of large gathering of
the friends and relatives, Rev. C. A.
Harper of the Presbyterian church per-
formed the marriage ceremony uniting
these two happy young lives, using the
beautiful ring service. The wedding

"Cavalleria Rusticana" being played
during the ceremony. While the large

with a toque of black velvet and carried
bouquet of white roses and ferns.

carried bouquet Of roses and ferns,
The groom was attended by his
brother, Mr.. George Morris, of Nash
vile, as best man, and w. E. Franklin

farmers know that Potash Pays. They

Shipping conditions are improving,
more Potash is coming forward although
the costs Of production and transpor-
