CHAPTER Xviii
TILE SUBSTITUTE SENTRY.

Hs-e aa4a4H - t. -Ear-- l-
Admiral Pachmann turned into
his berth, that night, extremely
well satisfied with himself, for he
was convinced that the cards were
in his hands and the game as good
as won. And what a game! For
his king, world empire; for him
self-butt the admiral did not per-
NIT himself to name the reward.
He knew well that he would not be
forgotten when the moment came
for the distribution Of honors.
Was not the whole plan hist Had
he not worked it out to its minut-
est detail? Had he not carried it
thro1ghi And how adroitly, how
triumphantly! Even the emperor
would have to acknowledge that!
Let Ut do the admiral justice;
he loved his country, he was ready
at any moment to lay down his life
for her, he would have labored
just as earnestly without hope of
other reward than the sight Of her
aggrandisement; but, just the
same, when the honors came, he
was not one to refuse them! World
empire would mean governorships,
suzerainties
He was lying in his berth next
morning, half doing, smiling to
himself as all this passed before
his mind in august and g~littering
procession, when there came a tap
at the door. He got up, opened it,
and a sealed note was handed in.
Ia glance at the other berth
showed that the prince had al
ready risen. Pachman tore open
the note and read its contents with
some astonishment. It was from
the captain, and asked for an i'm
mediate conference on a matter Of
great Importance.
Pachmann dressed hastily, and.
as he did SO, considered whether
he should hunt up the prince and
summon him, also, to this confer
ence. He decided against it. He
foresaw that in this affair there
would be many things which it
would be unwise for the prince to
know-he had sat staring like an
idiot, last night, while the mad
Pole raved about love and mercy
and universal brotherhood; he was
too young, too easily impressed,
too soft of heart. He had agreed
that victory must be won at any
price, but Pachmann very well
knew that he had no idea of how
terrible that price was almost GER
tain to be. No; the prince must
be kept as much as possible on the
borders Of this affair." So, having
finished dressing, the admiral
went forward alone to the cap
IitAin's cabin.
He found the captain sitting al
his desk, and his faco was 50
