that If the board finds 1t to be in q

In the confusion which followed the

self swept away from the officer who
nrst had taken him in charge.
Roleau, not unused to scenes of VIC
lence. had himself well In hand, and
now studied his situation calmly, find
ing 1t somewhat his own advantage
He say that he now had better oppor.
tunity for escape than at any time
before.
Resolved at last. he slipped away be-
yond his guards. and made off through
the city. not to the westward toward
the plain which lay between the two
cities. but to the east where lay the
water front Of Grahoifen.
The desert which lay between these
two little kingdoms ran far to the
southwark In barren peninsula, on
either side OF which swept the blue
sea. Each kingdom. therefore, might
be said to have seaport as good as
the other, although that OF Gretzhot.
fen lay closer to the Mediterranean
proper. Nevertheless. the Grahoffen
harbor was an ample one, and here
all the tiny navy Of the little kingdom
lay beyond the aviation grounds
Where the scanty corps of that serv.
ice sometimes held their maneuvers.
An may be seen. each OF these little
kingdoms, jealous Of the other and
rivaling methods Of richer empires
than their own. had developed as best
1t could each branch OF the service
approved In modern warfare. Each
had its little corps of air craft, each
Its miniature navy. its submarines, its
destroyers.
Full details Of all this Roleau did
not know. He knew we'll enough,
none the less. that escape for him lay
by water and not by land.
It was night when he approached
the wharves along the Grahoffen har.
Dor front. At their anchorage lay the
dim gray bulks Of the few battleships
belonging to Cortislaw. At one Of the
docks signs Of activity attracted him.
A yacht. long, clean.lined vessel. a
thoroughbred In all details, beauti-
fully equipped dhd apparently we'll
manned and Offered, was getting
ready to set out. Roleau looked at
It closely. It bore the royal ensign.
In truth, 1t was none less than the
yacht Of royalty itself.

the captain Of the yacht, before whom
