How strong you arei"
The ~splendor OF the rooms, the daz
cling array of jewels, the Kaleidoscope
colors, the perfume of the banked
flowers and the music all combined
TO put Florence into a pleasurable
kind of trance. And it was only when
the first waltz began that she became
herself and surrendered to the arms
Of the man she loved.
And they were Waiting over a vol
cano. She knew and he knew it.
From what direction would the blow
come? Well, they were prepared for
all manner of tricks.
In an alcove off the ballroom sat
Braine and Olga, both dressed exactly
like Newton and Florence. Another
man and woman entered presently
and Braine spoke to them for a mo-
ment, as If giving instructions, which
was indeed the case.
The band crashed into another
dance, and the masqueraders began
swirling hither and thither and yon.
A gay cavalier suddenly stopped In
front of Florence.
"~Enchantress, may | have the pleas

Jim touched Forence's hand. But
she turned laughingly toward the
stranger. What difference did it
make? The man would never know

him. 1t was a lark, that was all;

making an effort to dispel the drowsi.
ness. What time is it?" suddenly.
Midnight! Where Is she?"
Midnight? I've been drugged!"
Without a word Jones staggered eff
to the kitchens, Jim at his heels.
There was always hot water, and
within five minutes Jones had drunk
two cups of raw strong coffee.
"Drugged!" he murmured. Some
one in the house! I'll attend to that
later. Now, the chauffeur"
But the chauffeur swore on his oath
that he had left Jim and Florence on
the steps Of the porte cochere.
Get I'M" said Jones to Norton, now
fully alive. He could not get it out of
his head that some one In the house
had drugged him.
The events which followed we're to
both Jones and Norton something like
a series Of Nightmares. In the new
home of the Princess Parlova a bomb
exploded and fire followed the explo-
sion. From pleasure to terror is only
a step. The widest confusion mag
Unable ensued. Most of the guests
were of the opinion that some an
archist had attempted to blow up the
house of the rich Pole. Jones and
Norton arrived just as the smoke be-
a to pour out from the windows. A
crowd had already collected.
Then Jim overheard a woman mas
querader say: The fool made the
bomb too strong. She is in the room
on the second floor. The game is up
If she suffocates-" The voice
trailed off and the woman became lost
in the crowd. But it was enough for
the reporter, who pushed his way
roughly through the excited mas
queraders and entered the house. The
rescue was one of the most exciting
to be found in the newspaper files of
the day.
So Braine in his effort to scare ev-
erybody from the house had over

He would go GU and see Florence,
On the way out to R~iverdale he came
to the conclusion that the list of the
princess fell short and some friend OF
his who was helping the woman out
suggested his name. II was the only
way he could account for II.
But when he learned that Florence
had an invitation exactly like his own
and that she received 1t that morning
he became suspicious.

he questioned.

was up and away like the mischievous
sprite hat she was. Jim remained
In his chair. twisting his fingers and
wondering whether to laugh or grow
angry. After all, he could not blame
her. To him an affair like this was an
ancient story; to her ii was the door
of fairyland swung open. Let her en-
joy herself,
Florence was having a splendid
time. Hell partner was asking all sorts
OF questions and she was replying in
kind. when out of the crowd came
Norton las she supposedly, who touched
her arm The cavalier stopped. bowed
and made off.
Norton whispered: 81 have made an
important discovery. We must be off
at once Come with me-"
Florence, without the least suspicion
in the world, followed him up the
broad staircase What with the many
sounds ii was not to be wondered at
that the difference in the quality of
voices did not strike Florence's a
as odd. The result OF her confidence
was that upon reaching the upper
halls. opposite the dressing rooms, she
was suddenly thrust into a room and
made prisoner. When the light was
turned up she recognized with horror
the woman who had helped TO kidrap
her and take her away on the George
Washington weeks ago. She could not
have cried out for help il she had
tried.
Meantime Jim got up and began to
Wander about In search of Florence.
Braine played a clever game that
night. He and the Russian, still dom
inoed like Norton and Florence, or.
dered the Hargreave auto, by mum.
Der. entered it and we're driven up to
he porte cochere of the Hargreave
house. The two alighted, the chauf.
feur sent the car toward the garage.
and Braine and his companion ran
lightly down the path to the street
where the cab which had followed
picked them up.
II grew more and more evident to
Jim that something untoward had
taken place. He could not find Flor.
ence anywhere, in the ~alcoves, in the
side rooms, the supper or card room.
Later, to his utter amazement, he was
informed that the Hargreave auto had
some time since been called and its
owner taken home. Some one had
taken his place.
His first sensation was impotent
fury against Jones. who had permitted
them to play with fire. He flung out
OF ne mansion unceremoniously. com.
Wandered a cab, and flew out to Riv-
erdale. And when Jones came to the
door he was staggering with sleep.
