Al Count saehlo's Lodge.

At Count SachIoS Lodge.
Such speed did Roleau manage to
get out Of his own car that Kitty and
he arrived at the hunting lodge OF
Count Sachio we'll in advance OF all
others bound thither that eventful
morning,
Kitty and Roleau moved about very
much as they pleased after their entry.
1t pleased them best to hide them
selves In a small o adjacent to the
main hall where they fancied the main
events Of the day would perhaps n
enactment. A door and window made
connection between these two rooms.
and behind the curtains in the smaller
room they fancied they could be sui
ticiently concealed.
But there we're others who had an
interest in the events to occur In the
hunting lodge Of Count Sachio that
morning. The tangled akein of the
mysterious coin was expanding. draw
ing in yet others. Hardly had Kitty
and Roleau secreted themselves be-
fore they heard footballs under the
window of the gallery which ran along
that side Of the chalet. They won
dered who might be the author and
what his purpose.
1t was somewhat later before they
heard the mingling of voices and the
sound of footballs
"Rudolph!" exclaimed Count Sachio.
"Why has he not come? What has
gone wrong?"
But none could explain to him why
Rudolph had not a%rrived-nor at the
time did either Kitty of Roleau know
who or what Rudolph might be-al.
though, as a matter of fact, it was he
whom they themselves had left tied
hand and foot In Count Frederick's
palace. Nor could any Of these pres.
ent know that before this time Count
Frederick himself, returning to his
palace, had found yonder intruder,
bound and left helpless. in his W
private apartment. The man had
made such reuse as he could by de.
claring that he had been robbed and
thrown in the room by a ruffian. as.
sisted by q beautiful woman. And
Count Frederick. finding IN the floor
of his own apartment a tiny handker-
chief, had needed scarce more than
one guess as to who that young wom-
an had been.
But as to all these side scenes
which had been enacted, Count Sachio
was altogether ignorant. Wherefore
he o walked up and down, now ex.
claiming his own doubts. His irrita-
tion was obvious enough to Kitty as
she peered through the yelled curtain
and strained her carr to learn what
he was saying.
Even as she stood intent on what
was going on in the main room, Ro-
leau close at her side, also absorbed

as they watched-a spy upon those

They began to edge towards the pal

soldiery were not eager to oppose
them with steel. The soldiers were

they had had small cause for loyalty
to the king and court Of Gretzhofen.
They were i'll paid and i'll governed.
The people lacked leadership. Count
Frederick had hinged his W plans
of action upon one event-the public
disgrace of the king-and that event
had not occurred.
He frowned as he stood looking out
over the dense mass which filed the
streets. Even he began to feel, al
most in spite Of himself, some sort Of
a vague pity for these less fortunate
ones.
Still over the voice OF the strings
and reeds rose the low ~mutterngs Of

King Michael heard this sound. All
heard it, this voice of the people. as
yet undecided. The kings face paled
terror smote home upon his soul.
The courage Of his usual alcoholic
stimulant being tonight denied him,
his weak nerves gave way.
He saw Count Frederick, now re-
turning to the salon, from the great
entrance door. The latter saw the ter
ror on his monarch's face, and recog-
nized ON the instant the opportunity
for himself to strengthen his own po-
sition in the kings good graces.
