Count Sachio hastened to The room
where on his return from the battle
field he had changed his dusty apparel
His tunic and trousers lay where he
had left them. Evidently his orderly
had fed.
Count Sachio took up the trousers
and thrust hand into a pocket. He
knew where he had kept the coin, in |
his little leather folding portemon- |
naie. But he withdrew his hand and |
looked at 1t curiously The blank look |
on his face remained as he felt quick

through every pocket of the tunic

When Count Sachio returned to his

A silence fell upon the group.

had its little corps of air craft. each
its miniature navy. It's submarines. its

Full details OF all this Roleau did
not know. He knew web enough,

Dor front AZ eaeir anchorage lay tho

fully equipped and apparently we'll
manned and offlcered, was getting
ready to set out. Roleau looked at
1t closely. II bore the royal ensign.
In truth, it was none less than the
yacht OF royalty itself.
Good morrow, sir" said Roleau to
the captain OF the yacht, before whom
he presented himself q little later. II

take a passenger, one as anxious as
yourself to leave this place"
The captain looked at this intruder
for moment with none too much
favor.

he. I'VE are leaving, 1t is true, but

you may be sailing. Ask me not too
many questions, and viii not inquire

This bold chance thrust went home.
Roleau suspected now that the cap
tain was sailing under orders of Ills
own and for reasons of his own. The
man hesltated now.

RoIeau, the Spy.
Inv all these rapid events of the last
few hours Roleau had been left quite

had slipped away from him without

High Points Cleanup Week
Begins Next Monday Morn
ing! To the High Point
Public.

Through the efforts of the Wo-
mans Club of our city cooperating
with the city officials, we propose
to make High Point clean town
this coming week beginning Monday
morning, April 18th. A large num-
Der of wagons have been donated by
progressive citizens and manufacture
ing plants, so that we propose to COW
er the entire city and make thorough
cleanup all at one time instead of
taking each ward separately as here
| tofore. =
All citizens are expected to have
their premises thoroughly cleaned
and every particle of rubbish that
will burn disposed of in this way,
and nothing placed at the front for
hauling away except such rubbish
as will not burn.
Do not fail to have this work per-
| formed this week, as the teams will
not make second trip, and if any
rubbish is placed on tfe streets after
the wagons have passed the same
will have to be removed at the ex-
peDSe of the owner.
We ask for your hearty co-opera-
ton in thoroughly cleaning up our
city at this time, and we also urge
the citizens to heed the plea of the
Woman's Club with reference to the
determination of flies and mosquitoes.
Let US make this year the cleanest
and healthiest in all our history:
Respectfully,
FRED N. TATE, Mayor.
