Coin Oriental Special Feature
Serial, relates the further adventures
of Kitty Grey in the little Balkan
kingdom of Gretzhoffen. Kitty has
gained possession of the Kings half
of the broken coin and interesting
developments follow.
Kitty, again face to face with her
enemy, Count Frederick. holds out
to him the Kings half of the coin
they are both in search of. Fred
ericb makes grab for the coin, but
Kitty, ever on the alert, quickly
puts it back of her, and smiles pref
tily as the King and Count Sachio
enter the room. Sachio, she ignores
entirely, but she makes a very pref
ty and quaint curtsey to the King,
asking his permission to return to
the hotel. telling him she is quite
strong enough. after the rest she
just had The King, smitten with
Kitty and her breezy ways, tries to
persuade her to remain at the pal.
ace as his guest, but Kitty, anxious
to locate the other half of the coin
which Frederick's man took from
her on the desert, refuses.
Kitty, sorry to see the King in
the hands of two such villains as
Sachio and Frederick. and. liking
him for himself, starts little harm

rather seriously and, after she has
gone, remarks that she is some
girl"
Kitty, returning to her hotel, is
snubbed by the women guests. who
think her very questionable being
American, and, then, too. she
brought Rolleau to the hotel, and
no decent woman" would do that.
Kitty takes their slurs for what they
are worth. and promises herself to
get even with them some day,
And that day was not far of. for
the very next day the guests were
surprised when the Kings messen-
ger came with a note for someone
there. All gathered in the lobby to
see whoiit was that the King knew
in their hotel and all are much sur
prised to find it is Kitty, who re-
ceives through the messenger an
invitation to a BLACK and White"
ball to be given at the palace in a
few days. Kitty accidentally drops
her invitation Sc the busy bodies
may see it, then. just as they are all
looking atsit, asks its return. Hur-
riedly having black and white
gown made. Kitty tries to locate
Roleau, whom she left for dead at
Sachio's lodge, and, failing to get
any trace of him, she prepares for
the ball.
She starts to conceal the Kings
half of the coin on her person, but,
remembering her experience on the
desert, is about to put it into a !
drawer when she hears someone
sneaking along the hall. Quickly
running to the door she is just in |
time to see the figure of a man dis
appear around the corridor. Real
izingsthe coin will not be safe there,
she bits upon an idea and, wrapping
it into a small package, sends for
a teleeraph:messenger and tells him
to deliver it to either Kitty Gray or
King Michael at the palace, at IL

she finds she has all afternoon and

ISOLATION with loose friends
The Minister tells Frederick to
speak to Michael and keep him
sober during the evening as band
of citizens have planned to gather
outside the castle during the ball
and if Michael is drunk, as they be-
lieve he will be, they will start an
uprising and dethrone Michael, plac-
ing man of their choice on the
throne.
Frederick promises to do all he
can and the Minister departs. He
no sooner gets out of hearing dis
lance, than Kitty hears Frederick
call some of his men, relate quickly
what the Minister has just told him
and then plot against Michael ~ to
get him drunk, take sides with the
citizens. and be put on the
throne himself.
Kitty hurries out, and, returning
to the hotel, sends a message to
Michael warning him that although
it may seem very strange to him,
not to drink anything that night
and, should anyone offer him any
thing, to pretend to be intoxicated,
and she will explain when she ar
rives at the ball. After sending
her message, Kitty, hoping to learn
more of Frederick's plans, returns to
his apartment
Seeing him 60, she enters his den
and starts searching for the other
half of the coin. In the meantime,
Frederick's man, who has been
watching Kitty's movements, tells
Frederick about the coin she has
had sent to the palace and that she
is at the time in his apartment.
They return, find her there and lock
her in. Kitty. desperate, tries to

Frederick will get, should he sue

she finds every door locked and the
window two stories from the ground
Frederick, sure Kitty will stay in
his den until he lets her out, goes
to the palace to carry out his plan
to dethrone Michael and ascend the
throne. Kitty hearing him 60 down
the stairs, beats her hands franti-
cally on the door, but her only re-
ply is a laugh from the man guard
ing the door-and there we leave
her.
Frederick, at the palace, has
everything in readiness for the rev.
Olution to take place that night,
and goes out of his way to offer the
King liquor, which he slealthily
pOurs out of the glass when Freder-
lex is not looking, having faith in !
the message from Kitty.
About eleven o'clock Kitty sees
in a window across the way her old |
friend and helper, Roleau, who has
been watching Frederick's windows
for some time. Roleau, seeing Kit.
tvs plight, hangs from the fire es-
cape by his knees, and, telling Kitty
to jump. catches her in his hands
and pulls her into his room safely.
Quickly telling him, that that they
must be at the palace at twelve,
hey hurry to the hotel for her gown.
In the meantime, Frederick has,
