seen the princeling before, and was
agape. And there was not only key
but a bolt!
With three noiseless strides. Dalroy
was at the door and had slammed it.
The key turned easily and the bolt shot
home. Then he raced to the middle
window, unfastened the hasp, and
raised the lower sash. He counted on
the thick-headed sentry wasting some
precious seconds in trying to force the
door, and he was right. AS it hap

bitterly conscious Of a gasp Of terror

You are spies. A sentry heard you

But when the blast of war blows in our ears
Then initiate the action Of the tiger.
The warning tiger does not move
slowly. Half minute after his would
be captor had crashed headlong to the
hard cobbles Of AK la -Chapelle, Dalroy
was creeping between two wagons:
completing a hasty toilet by tearing on
collar and tie, and smearing his race
and hands with oil and grease from
lamp and cap. Even as he went he
heard a window of the waiting room
being flung open and the excited cries
which announced the discovery of a
half-naked body lying beneath in the
gloom.
He saw now that to every van was
harnessed a pair of horses. their heads
deep in nosebags, while men in the
uniform of the Commissartat Corps
were grouped around an officer who
was reading orders. The vans were
sheeted in black tarpaulins. With Ger
man attention to detail, their destina-
ton, contents, and particular allot-
ment were stenciled on the covers in
white paint: 'Liege. baggage and
fodder, cavalry division, 7th Army
Corps" He learned subsequently that

four Germans were furious. They held
STAFF appointments, and had been as
sured in Berlin that the clockwork regu-
larity of mobilization arrangements would
permit this particular train to cover the
journey according to schedule. Meals
were irregular and scanty. At one small
town. in the early morning, Dalroy Sc
cured a quantity of rolls and fruit, and all
benefited later by his forethought.
Newspapers bought en- route contained
dark forebodings Of England's growing
hostility. A special edition of a Han
over journal spoke of an ultimatum,
word which evoked harsh denunciations
OF British treachery'' from the Ger
mans. The comparative friendliness in
duced by Dalroys provision as a caterer
vanished at once. When the train rolled

were fully aware that their fellow-pas-

enemies.

German officers went out, no doubt to
seek meal: but took the precaution of
asking an officer in charge Of some Ba-

sentry at the carriage door. Probably

Though none Of the three in the wagon
might even hazard a guess at the tres
mendous facts. the German wolf had ala
ready made his spring and been foiled.
Not only had he missed his real quarry,
France. he had also broken his fangs on
the tough armor Of Lege. These things
Dalroy and Irene Beresford were to learn
soon. Tho first intimation that the Bel

before dawn.

he was not molested. The brilliant moon,
though waning. helped tho riders to avoid
him.
Dalroy and the girl were comfortably
seated, and almost hidden. among the
sacks Of oats; they were free to talk as
they listed.
Naturally. a soldiers eyes took in de-
tails at once which would escape
woman: but Irene Beresford soon noted
signs Of the erratic fighting which had
taken place along that very road.

whispered, after an awed glance at the

two classes of products are so closely

CAREFUL ANALYSIS

Long List of Interesting Figures Show

i'll Granite Production.

WASHINGTON, Feb. l3.-The bu-
rCau Of the census has issued an alb
stract of the data on manufactures in
Vermont for 1914 in which the principal
industries are analysed. The report
may be summed up in the following
The value of farm crops in 1909 was
S27 1885, of which more than one
half-Sl6 1886, 530-represented hay and
forage.
At the United States census of
mines and quarries, i'll 1909, the total
mineral output of Vermont was valued
at $S,22l 1923, the principal products
being marble, S3,277,65l, and granite,
$2,s29,522.
According to the annual report OF
the United States Geological Survey
the total value of all mineral pro
dured in the state in lrl4 was $S,665,
SCI, the leading items being marble, So,

Butter, Cheese and Condensed Milk.

Third in importance in the state at
the last three censuses, this industry,
although showing a small actual de-
crease from 1909 to 1911 in number
of establishments and average number
OF wage carners, showed increases in
amount paid in wages, cost of materi-
ais. and the value of products. The
decrease in number of establishments
has been noticeable since 1904, when
300 establishments were reported, and
is probably due to greater centrali-
zation of the industry, causing the
abandonment of many small local
creameries. For the five-year period
1909-1914 the average number of wage
earners decreased As, or 90 per cent,
while the value of products increased
1884 900, or - per cent.
