CHAPTER LXII.
MarooncJ.


 The vessel when blown up was we'll on her way with the favoring winds which she sought, which in ordinary course would have carried her out into the Mediterranean.
 How Count Frederick and Roleau lived they scarcely knew. Happily the water at that latitude was not cold and the day was one of calm. "Roleau, she has perished!" mur. mured Count Frederick. She is gone Let me, too, perish then, for I have never been able to say that which should have said. I have had no op portunity to expiate many things which have donc."
 AS well die now as any time,' said Roleau.
 Wind and wave carried these two far-they knew not how far. and had no means of guessing. for they could | not tell how long time had passed since the explosion which had sunk the ship. They knew not which way | to look for land if land there might
 
 ono moment, as they flung high on the | crest of the wave, Count Frederick ! saw, many hours after the wreckins of the ship. something which caused him to give an exclamation of surprise
 "Roleau," he exclaimed. There is land ahead. believe!"
 Look" said Count Frederick al length. They are coming out to us. Surely enough. even from where | they were they could see dark forms running here and tEere. could see the launching of boat could see 1t com ing on, rising and falling on the waves At length the craft came alongside manned by strange, swarthy natives whose speech they did not know, yet | who seemed friendly enough withal to serve as rescuers for them. With small ceremony they were hauled on board. and tho boat, turning, made way back again to tho shore ahead. "'Tis an island, Roleau." said Fred erick, after a moment spent in exam nation. Not so large. but excellent under foot, is it not true? And these people seem not urfriendly to us."
 For time they had been left alone but now they saw certain of the ma tives returning with food and water l Upon these both the shipwrecked ad venturers fell with eagerness. Their captors stood about and grinned ir pleasure. All the wealth of Count Frederick, his gold, his castles. his lands-these things seemed little ir value as compared to what these swarthy natives brought him now.

hurried searchNin the confused freight age of the ships hold At last he found that which he sought.
 She tried feebly to raise herself as she heard footsteps. heard voice she knew to be that of her friend.
 'Mademoiselle-tha God," was all Count Frederick could say.
 Tt is you, them" was her reply. What has happened? Why are you here?"
 T am here, my dear mademoiselle, in the justice of the immortal gods to save you-to care for you. I heard of the plot against you. My own boat lies alongside-I havo come. am here to take you from this ship, if so you wish. Come then. let us hasten. There is scant time"
 They all crowded now to the lad ders up from the hold, and, rapidly as they might, found their way back to the upper deck. There came confu- sion, noise. trampling. shouts, sounds not ordinary at this stage of the voy- age oi Vessei putting out 10 sea. The passengers themselves suspected something to be wrong. They crowd ed now about tho captain excitedly, ex- postulating. The master of the ship pushed them aside.
 Well, Miller" he demanded again of the oil-stained engineer who hurried up, what is it?"
 Tt may be minute, sir--or less," In an instant they were face to face with the ultimate peril of tho seas fire, explosion on shipboard There camo from below that Sound which had been expected, dreaded--a muffled, heavy roar, comparable to nothing in the world in terrifying qual. ity at such time as this. The ship so lately safe and strong beneath them all, now trembled. Midway her decks rose. spread apart. fell. A cloud of binding white steam rolled from the engine rooms, stifling and scalding all within it's way. Cries of anguish came from below decks, cries of despair To these were added now the far more

CHAPTER Lxl.
The Discovery.

The two kingdoms now hung on the fate of two refugees, two castaways. themselves forlorn and hopeless. Even as Grahoffen's king and it's leading man of affairs pondered the absence of these two so likewise the kingdom of Gretzhoffen was concerned in their absence, in their welfare, in their fu- ture, ill their return.
 Count Frederick stood on the deck of the Prinz Adler liner and fronted the captain of that vessel. who was severe in his resentment of the lib- critics he deemed to have been taken with himself and his ship. T tell you" said he, T have noth- ing to do with your little war here. I am neutral-I am a carrier in the open trade of the open sea. My gov ernment will demand reparation for this insult to our flag"
 Sir" said Count Frederick. your government be damned! I will take my chances with your government. Of what use will your government be to ycr we blow your ship out of the W. 70
 You threaten me, then?"
 "No, I do not deal in threats. I tell you that know the persons whom I mentioned are on this ship. I mean to take them of"
 And tell you again that there are no such passengers on my ship. The ships lists show all who have sailed with us. You may look for yourself examine our books all you like. Do you take us for pirates-are we be- yond all responsibilities?
 T do not call you pirates" said Count Frederick. calmly. T only call you dupes. I believe you have been deceived. You are not in possession of all the facts. My own men have told me that these persons were to be smuggled aboard the ship"
 "Heiliger Gott." unused the captain. What is this that has been under taken here? I never discovered it. Who and what are these persons-if there be indeed any such aboard?"
 1.-Two, as I said. One is man of small rank, no more than a faithful servant, powerful and resourceful himself. once loyal in my own serv- ice, now loyal in that of his mistress" And she-the other?"
The Spectator., 1916-02-22

they were not now as they had been then. Both bore marks of conflict. and of conflict which had not gone all together to their favor.
 How, now. you dogs?" cried the captain. Whats wrong with you? Have you been fighting among your selves?"
 One. quicker witted than the other. gave his assent to this at once. Tho second was not so fortunate.
 Twas the animals" said he. with cunning not quite equal to the issue.
 What? You disagree, then?' said the captain. What does this mean. fellows? Animals? What animals? Lions?-tigers?-I did not know we carried such,"
 The sailor hung his head, and the captains suspicious grew.
 You are covering up something here. Speak, you rufilans, and speak the truth
 Captain" began the man once more, we arc innocent But we found two stowaways below. and thinking to bring them up. they fell upon us and beat us-a man and woman"
 How did they get aboard-where are they then-who are rhey?'
 They must have come in with the freight by the lift from the dock, cap tain. The young woman-she is beau tiful-and as you say, she is like a tiger. As to the man, yes, he was like lion. They fought us. you see.'
 Where arc they now, spitzbuhen ruffians?"
 The speaker paled suddenly. They are there in the hold he said.
 Lead us to them then"
 They turned to find their way to the lower portions of the ship. but even as they did so they met an interruption. An agitated man, grimy and dirty, in oil-stained clothing, came running to- wards the captains room-none less than the chief engineer of the vessel who obviously had been engaged in commoner duties than naturally be- longed to him.
The Spectator., 1916-02-22

But if he knows nothing whatever of that scrap of paper-if he never heard of it."
 "All the more he will be willing to part with it if we ourselves can find it. As to that, we do not know. This is but drag-net sort of move on our part, but 1t may take some fish-who knows?"
 Good! Then what is our next move, as you perceive it?" "Why, let us make a cautious move to feel out their point-as a fencer tests his adversary's wrist, to feel his strength at the hilt. Let us send a note of friendship to Michael and ask him if it be not better that these two little kingdoms, separated by so mar row Q stretch of land. should not henceforth meet in harmony, and no longer join In armed encounters. Let us point out to him that there are other nations greater than either Of us-or both of us-which perhaps some time may look our way. Let us show him the virtue of an alliance be- tween these two kingdoms. Let us play upon his fears, his vanity, his
 weakness, until we have convinced
 him that friendship with us is thing
 desirable for him. Let us ask good
 Michael if he Is not graciously dis posed to be our friend today-to be
 our magnanimous and powerful
 friend!"
 Sachio grinned broadly at his own
 irony, and his monarch gave vent to
 a loud laugh. his gray beard curling
 at the thought of his courtier's cum
 ming as we'll as his loyalty to his own
 king.
 Excellent, Sachio, excellent" he
 exclaimed. Nor do I doubt the sue
 cess of this thing as you plan it, if
 you yourself shall carry it forward
 Do you then write that humble mis-
 sive that you suggest-do you your
 self ask Michael to be graciously gen
 erous to a weak and pleading friend!
 Hal ha. Sachio, what next lies on
 the board for us?"
 Why, then, your majesty, we are
 alongside the fence that lies between us. We do not know how far it may be until We come to gate or a gap, but sometimes there will be a gate or a gap. through which we may pass.
 In some way I doubt not, and others may perhaps gain access to the palace of Gretzhoffen. That gives us our
 footing. AS for them, they sleep and
 revel. As for us, we act. It is the
 man of action who succeeds. Let them dream-we will act"
 Your counsels jump with my own, my dear Sachio," said Cortislaw Il have small use for the man who dreams or the man who waits. It shall be as you say. A test of this at
 least cannot harm us, and may prove I of extreme value. Go forward with it ! then. as you have said.''
The Spectator., 1916-02-22

"Captain--quick!" he exclaimed "There is trouble with the engines"
 Whats wrong?" inquired the ships master.
 "The right-hand tubular has gone bad" exclaimed the engineer. "She has been pounding like 8 million ham, mers. The water is low, and the in. takes clogged. Something's wrong I cannot tell what We have tried to shut her of and cant. The boiler may 90 at any minute"
 "Explode?" inquired the captain calmly
 The engineer could only nod.
 Stay" called Frederick at this juncture. Let the engineer go back to his work Let us first find tle help less persons below. If danger impend let us bring them up to have their chance for safety"
 The captain, gallant man withal turned to him and nodded grimly. "Go back to your post. Miller" he said to the engineer. We will join you pres ently."
 He himself led the way to the lift which led to the lower decks and the hatchway which covered the ladders into the ships hold.
 They found themselves at last deep in the bowels of the vessel, among the bales and casks of the cargo where for time all was darkness and mystery. But as they hurried here and there. commanding the guidance of the two recreant seamen and cast ing the rays of their lights hither and yon, at last they saw a trussed-up bundle behind a bale of goods which seemed to have some human sem blance. It was Roleau. Frederick himself was first at his side. He bent over him, freed him, and after time revived him.
 "Monsieur-your excellency!" said he at length. Tt is you"
 Where is she?" demanded Freder- ick Was she here?"
 q have known nothing for some time, it seems. Yet she was here, yes she is gone, know not where.'
 Frederick left him to continue his

Yes, a young American of youth and much beauty. She was in this country on business of her own. With out plan she became involved iii af. fairs between these two monarchs. She has been the victim of evil for tune, not through fault of her own. Now, am telling you the truth-since l have gained my purpose of an audi ence with you. You may rely upon what have said, captain. This is the truth, so far as know it."
 Then why not let them sail for their own country--if she has been in jured here why not let her go back to her own country? l am booked for New York. If that be a city of her native land. why not that port as we'll as any other? And how shall I know your own motives?"
 Count Frederick paused in thought at this. "True-that is true" said he "Very well, we will search your ship When we find the young woman let her decide what she wishes to do. If she says she wishes to go back to her home. l will not prevent it. But If she be asked to go back against her will. then I shall take her with me, no matter at what cost. At least she should have the choice of decision she should not be slowed aboard like a dumb beast with no volition of her own"
 We are quite at one as to that" assented the captain. Good, we will search the ship-I am convinced we shall not find these persons in any of the cabins"
 Stay" he added an instant later. T recall that a short time back there was complaint of noises below decks! I sent some men to look into that. Where are they?"
 He pressed a bell and soon one of his assistant officers came.
 Co, bring me the men l sent to eX- anime the cargo while ago. There was some talk of @ noise as of loose animals in the hold"
 After a time the officer returned, pushing before him two seamen. They were the same who had been dis patched on the errand mentioned. But
