to the crown prince himself. | natur-
ally wondered why I had been com
manded to audience there.
"Have you any knowledge of the
contents of the letter which you have
brought from the crown prince?" the
emperor asked bluntly.
replied in the negative.
"where are you going nOw?" he ask
ed suddenly.
.sTo Thorn. His imperial highneSs
tnspects the garrison there on Thurs
day." I said.
"Ahl OF course. I intended to go,
but 1t is impossible"
Then after pause, the emperor
looked me straight in the face and
suddenly said:
"Heltzendorff. have you any knowl-
edge of any man called Minckwitz?"
reflected.

master of the court of the duke of
Saxe-Altenburg," was my reply.
"No. This is man, Wilhelm Minck-
WITT. who poses as a musician"
I shook my head.
"You are quite certain that you have
never heard the name? Try to recol-
lect whether the crown prince has
ever mentioned him in your presence
l endeavored to recall the circum-
stance, for somehow very gradually
felt distinct recollection of having
once heard that name before.
SAT the momen, fail to recall any

The emperor knit his brows as
though annoyed at my reply. and then
grunted deeply In dissatisfaction.
"Remain here in Potsdam" he said.

the kaiser's eye alone-a report of one

Minckwitz! I impressed that name
upon my memory, and, being dismissed
bowed myself out of the imperial pres
ence.
Returning to the Marmor palace I
sent long and urgent message over
the private wire to willie" at AL
tona, repeating his majesty's orders,
and recalling him at once. Quite well
l knew that such an unusual message
would arouse his highness' apprehen-
sion thnt for some offense or other he
was .pout to receive paternal cas-
tigation. But I could not be explicit,
because I had no knowledge of the
reason the emperor was canceling our
engagement at Thorn.
"Did He Ask You That7"
At nine O'Clock that night the crown
prince burst into the room wherein 1
was attending to the correspondence.
"What In the name of fate does all
this mean, Heltzendorff?" he demand
ed. "Why did the emperor fail to re-
ply to my messenger
