grave. This" said he, lis a matter
for the king"
But the king was In no too good hu-
NOR over all these failures.
Wnat Sachio' said he. you come
to me once more with these old WON
ans tales? II your time is 30 short
before your secret Is discovered, then
all tho more reason for diligence on
your part. 1t is not the business of
kings to accept reasons for failure
In performance. The girl is still avail
able-complete your errand with her
bring to me the reading OF the coin.
1 know we'll enough that II Count
Frederick comes he will be different
from his king
Therefore once more Sachio went
back to his bootless interviews with
Kitty, once more pleading with her to
give him all knowledge she had Of
the coin. And once more Kitty could
no more than reassure him of her own
ignorance Of what he wished to
know.
She heard odds and ends Of informa-
ton which taught her which way the
wind sat at Grahoffen capital. Some
times she heard Sachio, again Bartel.
again this or that man, speaking
freely of the plans at hand.
Il told the king" said Bartel one
time, speaking to Count Sachio, that
all II ripe for the shaking of the
tree. l told him that we have full
plans OF all thc.r Notifications and de-
fenses-that their resistance will be
but nominal. Once we get the Gretz-
hoffen Golfers opened, times will be
easier i'll our country"
Yes, once you do" rejoined Sachio
grtmly. But tell US howl"
Kitty, really owing allegiance to
neither of these Kingdoms, both OF
which had done her such repeated in
justice, hardly stopped to ask herself
why she found her own leanings to-
wards Gretzhoffen, the scene of
most OF the indignities she had met
She must escape for every reason
SO she assured herself. But how?
From the windows she had full
view OF the well-kept grounds of the
palace and OF the boulevards sur
rounding it. She stood alone one day
staring out on scenes grown familiar
to her. But all at once her gaze grew
more intent, fixed upon some object
not far away. A car was standing at
the curb. She did not remember to
have seen it there regularly.

had been assigned the duty OF watch

he wishes to see you, mademoiselle."
Kitty turned back into the room
and Sachio, irritated at the delay,
went so far as to take her by the arm
TO induce her to leave the room with
him. She resisted him so vigorously
that for the time he stood back non
plused
But at length the girls powers
proved no match for those brought
against her. She was forced from the
room toward the front of the build
ing.
Once more Kitty adopted the pol

struggle when she found struggling
useless, and lay back to wait until
time when resistance might be more
effective.

she. do as you like. l am weaker

Count Sachio made no answer to her
biting words. In truth, matters had
not gone SO well with him as he would
have liked. He had been ordered to
report to his own king, and now must
soon make that report, and certainly
he could not tell of the unqualified
success which he had SO confidently

There may be many reasons" con-

absence. Perhaps the business upon
which she came Is not yet completed.
Perhaps her employers have called

CHAPTER XXI.
In the Name of the King.

1t was plain enough to Count Sachio
which way Kitty would head in her
flight. Her car was little more than
out of sight on the Gretzhoffen road,
ere Sachio himself was In pursuit.
Count Sachio himself was no blum
derer, and no common thief chaser, but
a courtier and man Of intelligence.
He knew 1t would be futile to make
a direct demand of the hotel manage
ment regarding the whereabouts of
the young American. Therefore, while
he himself approached the hotel desk
to engage the clerks in conversation,
he sent two OF his own men-one OF
them Bartel, the spy, who had been
established here so long-by way OF

and report to him what they learned
He stood for some time making DO

the porters, asking for certain infor.
nation as to routes and distances, but
all the time burning with impotence
that he heard no report from his mes
sengers. AS he stood, there came
news OF DEMONSTRATING news enough.
There came shrieking down the stairs,
incoherent, babbling, a maid who
called out to the clerk, or to any who
would hear heri
"A man." she cried-"A man-killed

Sachio was glad enough that his own
alibi was plain, for he knew not what
now might happen. One of his men
re)oined him-the spy Bartel. The
other remained behind-his fate I'M
known as yet.
AS for Kitty, she was at this mo-
ment once more away from her hotel
and once more In the stately palace
of Count Frederick.
She entered softly, leaving Roleau
as usual somewhat remote, to guard
against any sudden intrusion. Once
more she cast about searching gaze
upon the details of the place. All its

spanned in hours, somewhat to the
wonderment of Kitty, schooled in the
great distances of her own country.
Arrived in the capital of Grahoffen,
she was allowed small time to arrange
her toilet or compose herself after the
fatigue of the journey. Very presently
she was brought before King Cortis-
law himself.
She found him an old man, thin,
wrinkled, grabbed, irritable, excitable

steadily as she stood before him.

which had been taken from her but
lately by these men. Evidently Count
Sachio had turned 1t over forthwith

Final arrangements for tho recep- tion and entertainment of tho Grand Army veterans at their forty ninth an- nual encampment, in Washington, during the week of September 27, have now been completed.

The re- union will not be held under canvas, as has been the case with these af- fairs in many cities.

Middies' social season opened Sat
urday night with the first hop of the
series to be given during the present
academic year.
For first hop it was unusually
large. many girls coming from Wash
ington, Baltimore and other nearby
cities. The usual number from An

also in attendance The hop was held
in the Gymnasium, Mrs. Louis NJ Null
ton, wife of Commander Mutton, y S.

shipman c. II. Lyle, of Tennessee, a
member of the first class and chair
man of the hop committee.
There were many beautiful girls in
attendance. and the gowns were unus-
ually handsome, dainty and sweet, but
no extreme fashions were noticed.
Several of the girls danced WITH
crownless hats on, filmy lace or chit
fon forming the brim, and the girls
hair the crown. The hop was a great
success in all details.
