documents to which he attached spe- cial importance he did not leave them in the safe at the chancellery. but car ried them about in a certain yellow dispatch-box, which never left him day or night.
 AS soon as he understood what I proposed. he requested me to ring the request the instant attendance of the chancellor at the palace.
 The old chancellor came pufing into the room carrying his eternal vel low dispatch-box under his arm. He carefully deposited his yellow box up- on a table. before advancing to greet his majesty.
 "'Well. prince. how is the rheuma- tism today? inquired the kaiser.
 Bad. very bad, sire.' grumbled the old minister
 eHe then, without inviting the prince to be seated, put question to him about some pending commercial treaty with Russia, which necessitated a reference to the contents of the yell low box. The prince fumbled for his keys, unlocked the box and took out the paper which his master had in- quired for, The kaiser, after barely glancing at it, suddenly took the old man by the arm, and commenced to draw him out of the room.
 Come upstairs for moment he cried; you must positively hear the empress play my last composition. The court are enraptured with it, and tue royal organist tells me it will re- place the "Wacht am Rhein' as the national anthem of Germany"
 "The prince hesitated, and glanced at his dispatch-box. which still lay un- locked on the table.
 That will be all right said the kaiser impatiently See, I will lock the door of the room from outside
 "The instant the door closed behind them I darted from my hiding-place and bounced on the yellow box. There, lying close to the top. was an envelope bearing the French official seal. and

groan at his rheumatic pains as he went.
 Now the time had come for an ex- planation with the kaiser. my abstrac. tion of the document having been an unrehearsed effect for which I had not prepared him. He directed a stern look at me as I came out into his presence.
 "Sir.' he began angrily, why did you take that paper?
 T gazed at him as if pained surprise.
 But, sire I exclaimed. you have just repudiated the treaty which Prince von Bismarck proposed in your name, and have agreed that my gov. ernment shall accept your decision. Naturally 1t is my duty to reclaim the document. obtained from my govern. ment by fraud, and to which your chancellor is no longer entitled
 That Is all very well, NJ. le Baron but 1t is not the way to go to work : returned the kaiser, still angry.
 Perhaps not, sire. But. if 1t comes to that, neither of us has much to gain by proclaiming this mornings work 1, l replied boldly. And seeing that inc snaft had gone home, I continued. The document which I have substi- tuted bears similar heading and is equally in the writing of M. Fleuriot so that the exchange is not likely to be detected just at present. In the meantime if you. sire, will overlook my having possessed myself of this ma. per, I will tell you beforehand of an. other little measure on which ner. haps, this faithful Bismarck has for. gotten to consult you
 "The kaiser's face flushed darklv
 "I will say no more about that na. per. What else do you refer to?"
 Simply this, sire, that on Satur. day next the prince expects to receive England's adherence to the trinle alli. ance. In that have reason to think he will find himself deceived.
 And before Wilhelm II had time to take in the bearing of this piece or news. evidently unwelcome to him

!. But this is incredlbler [

But this is incredibier Can the prince have dared to cumInn Germany to this undertaking without even consulting you? This is worse than the time of the old kaiser And my government was assured that this new policy was due to your majesty's direct initiative
 ''The kaiser sat like one thunder struck
 'I had now, of course, satisfied my self that Bismarck was acting without his masters knowledge. It remained for me to secure the emperor's conf dence and deprive the prince of any chance of winning his approval for this audacious intrigue.
 q turned to Wilhelm II with an ex- pression of deep regret.
 Sire, I am overwhelmed to think that you, as well as my government, have been deceived by this minister, who has acquired the habit of over stepping his powers. But I know my government too we'll to believe it ca pablo of taking advantage of this situ- ation. I was sent here to obtain your majesty's personal confirmation of this treaty. I learn that the entire negotiation has been without your sanction, and, however disappointing to France this may be, have no hesi- tation in saying. on behalf of my gov ernment, that it will consent to treat the affair as if it had not taken place.
 You are very good, M le Baron, murmured the emperor evidently re- lieved by this declaration, but still embarrassed by the consideration that had penetrated the state of his rela- tions with the chancellor.
 It only remains for me to satisfy you of the truth of my words l re- sumed, and to afford you an opportu- nity of terminating scandalous situa- tion. Let me propose to you, sire, a little conspiracy against this gentle. man, who has so nearly made us dance to his music
 "The kaiser smiled and listened with approval while I unfolded the plan which I had formed.
 During the time of my connection with our embassy in Berlin I had be- come we'll acquainted with the chan cellor's habits. Among other things. I was aware that when he had any

 While I was drawing it out of the envelope the key turned in the door, and the kaiser burst in. AS had been arranged between us, he had left the chancellor halfway up the stairs, ln the confidence that the old mans movements would not be quick enough for him to intercept us for minute. The emperor's pretext for returning was that he had forgotten his musical manuscript.
 q had just time to unfold the paper and point to the words by which II was headed Proposal for an Often sive Alliance between France and Ger many and to the signature Jules Fleuriot,' at the foot, when we nearo the ponderous footsteps of Prince Bis marck outside.
 Now was the time for my great stroke. Before the astonished kaiser could tell what I was about to do had swiftly crumpled the all-important document into one pocket, while from another l drew a paper similar Tn ap- pearance, and coolly slipped il into the envelope, which I restored to the dis patch-box under his very eyes. There was just time for me to regain my hiding place before the door was burst open and the old chancellor stalked in.
 He was panting from the exertions he had made, and looked angry and disgusted. By this time Wilhelm Il was busily turning over some papers in a drawer at the other end of the apartment Casting an indignant glance at his back, the prince went straight up to the precious yellow box, locked it, and restored the keys to his pocket, at the same time tucking the box under his arm. Then. and not be- fore, he growled out to the absorbed kaiser:

State Fire Marshal TabOos SkyrOckets :
and other Public Menaces.

INDIANAPOLIS. June 25.-In the
campaign for a safer and. saner''
Fourth of July in Indiana, the state
Gre marshars office deprecates the
use of skyrockets for celebrating pur-
poses. In support of the argument
the costly experience of the city Of
Bloomington being compelled TO pay
approximately $4,000 damages TO
Miss Josephine Moore of that city is
cited The girl received injuries from
skyrocket during a Labor day cele-
bratiOn and was disfigured for life.
The supreme court has held the city
OF Bloomington responsible and
rendered a Judgment for $4,000 plus
the costs of nine years OF ligiation and
interest.
A strong endorsement Of the safe
and sane independence day also is
found in table OF statistics compiled
by the Journal OF Fourth OF July cele-
brations r. the United States i'm 1914
totaled but 40. as compared with an
aggregate of 466 in 1903. During the
same 12-year period the number Of
persons injured in patriotic celebra-
tions was reduced from 1888 To 1856,
the latter figure including all kinds OF
hurts.
