casional rumble that told of some pal pitating soul being at that moment hurled and twisted and joyously thrilled as per the lieutenant's descrip- tion.
 Now 1t Is strange thing, but true, that one does not reach the land of desire alone; because the half of pleasure is the sharing of 1t with some one else. and the land of desire. alone. is not the land of desire at all. Quite suddenly, Prince Ferdinand William Otto discovered that he was lonely. At that moment there was soft whirring off to one side of him. and yellow bird. rising and falling erratically on the breeze. careened suddenly and fell at his feet.
 Prince Ferdinand William Otto bent down and picked 1t up. It was a small toy aeroplane, with yellow silk planes,

Then came the end of all things-a flying leap down, Il rt-breaking, delirious thrill, an up- ward sweep just as the strain was too great for endurance.
 Above the roaring of the wind in their ears. neither child had heard the flying feet of dozen horses coming down the alice. They never knew that n hatless young lieutenant. white tipped with fear. had checked his horse to Its launches at the ticket booth, and demanded to know who was in the land of desire.

 But Iiedwig's lieutenant had wheeled his horse without word. and. jump ing him over the hedge of the alice, was off In despairing search of the outskirts of the park. followed by his cavalrymen.
 As the last horse leaped the hedge and disappeared. the ear came to a stop at the platform. Quivering. Prince Ferdinand William Otto reached down for the despised hat.

 Suppose" said the king, you draw up chair and tell me about it. We'd better talk 1t over, I think"
 His royal highness drew up chair, and sat on 1t. His feet not reaching the floor, he hooked them around the chair rung. TMs was permissible be- cause, first, the king could not see them from his bed. Second, 1t kept his knees from shaking.

 His eyes. weary with many years of ruling. of disappointments and bitter ness. roved the room. They came to rest at last on the photograph of young man. which stood on his bed side table.
 He was very young man, in uni- form. He was boyish, and smiling. There was dog beside him. and its head was on his knee. Wherever one stood in the room. the eyes of the photograph gazed at one. The king knew this. and because he was quite old, and because there were few peo- pie to whom a king dares to speak his to the photograph. The older he grew. the more he felt. sometimes, as though 1t knew what he said.
 "If they've got him" he said now to the picture, "it Is out of my hands, and into yours. my boy"

 Quite suddenly the door opened. The old man turned his head. Just inside stood very dirty small boy.
 The Crown Prince Ferdinand Will Ham Otto was most terribly fright ened Everything was at sixes and Seyens. Miss Braithwaite had been crying her head off and on seeing him had fallen in faint.

 He went to the side of the bed.
 Where have you been?"

 Prince Ferdinand William Otto con- sidered. It was rather an awful mo- ment. "I don't exactly know. l just thought I would"

CHAPTER II.
Dfsaraced.

At eight o'clock that evening the Crown Prince Ferdinand William Otto approached the palace through the public square. He approached II slowly. for two reasons. First, he did not want to go hack Second. he WAS rather frightened He had m idea that they would be disagreeahle.
 There seemed to he great deal go- ing on at the palace. Carriages were rolling in under the stone arehway and. having discharged their contents. mostly gentlemen ia uniform, We're moving off with laundering of heofs that reached from the Hauted roof of the entrance. All the lish.s Were on in the wing where his grandfather. the king lived alone. As his grand father hated lights. and went to bed early, Prince Ferdinand William Otto Was slightly puzzled.
 He WAS very dirty. His august face was streaked with soer and his au- gust hands likewise. Ills small derby hat was carefully placed on the very back of his head 1t the angle of the American boys cap. As his collar had scratched his neck, he had, at Boh- bys suggestion. taken 1t off and rolled 1t up He decided as he waited In the square to put 1t on agaM Miss Rraithwaite was very peculiar about collars.
 Came lull in the line of carriages. Prince Ferdinand William Otto took n long breath and started forward. As he advanced he stuck his hands in his pockets and swaggered a trifle It was, as nearly as possible. an ex- net imitation of Bobby Thorpe's walk. And to keep up his courage, he quoted that young gentleman's farewell speech to himself 'What q you care? They won't eat you, will they2"
 Prince Ferdinand William Otto stood in the shadows and glanced across. The sentries stood like wooden men, but something was wrong in the court yard inside. The guards were all standing. and t.ere seemed to be q great many of them. And just as he had made up his mind to take the plunge, so to speak, a part of his own regiment of cavalry came out from the court yard with laundering of hoofs, wheeled at the street. and clattered of.
 Very unusual. all of it.
 The Crown Prince Ferdinand Otto felt in his pocket for his handkerchief. and, molstening corner with his tongue, wiped his face. Then he wiped his shoes. Then. with his hands in his trousers pockets, he sauntered in- to the light.
 The two sentries made no sign when they saw Ferdinand William Otto approaching. But one of them forgot to bring his musket to salute. He crossed himself instead. And strained around the other Sentry's lower jaw suddenly relaxed into smile as his royal highneSs drew hand from it's refuge and sa- luted. He glanced at one then at the other rather sheepishly, hesitated be- tween them, elapped his hat on more securely, and marched in.
 ''The young rascal!' said the sec ond sentry to himself. And by turn ing his head slightly-for sentry learns to see all around like horse. without twisting his neck-he watched the runaway into the palace.
 Prince Ferdinand William Otto went up the stone staircase. Here and there he passed guards who stared and saluted. Had he not been obsessed with the vision of Miss Braithwaite. he would have known that relief fol-

 guy ropes of waxed thread, and a wooden rudder, it's motive power vested in q tightly twisted rubber. One of the wings was bent. Ferdinand William Otto straishtened 1t, and looked around for the owner.
 A small boy was standing under the next gas lamp. "Gee!" he said iH English. "Did you see 1t go that timet"
 Prince Ferdinand William Otto eyed the stranger He was about his own age, and was dressed In short pair of corduroy trousers. much bloomed at the knee. pair of yellow Russia leather shoes that reached well to his calves. and. over all. shaggy white sweater, rolling almost to his chin. On the very back of hIs head he had the smallest cap that Prince Ferdinand William Otto had ever seen.
 This Is the best time for flying" he said, In his perfect English. All the exhibition flights are at sundown." :"
 The boy walked slowly over and stood looking down at him. You ought to see 1t fly from the top of Pike's Peak :" he remarked. He had caught sight of the desplsed derby. and his eyes widened. but with instinctive good breeding he ignored 1t. That's Pike's Peak up there"
 He indicated the very top of the land of desire. The prince stared up.
 How does one get up?" he queried
 Ladders. My fathers the manager He lets me up sometimes"
 Prince Ferdinand William Otto stared with new awe at the boy. He found the fact much more remarkable than If the stranger had stated that his father was the king of England Kings were. as you may say, directly in Prince Ferdinand William Ottos line. but scenic railroads
 Il had thought of 1lking n journey on it." he said. after seconds re- flection. Do you think your father will sell me ticketf"
 Billy Grimm will. I'll go with you"
 The prince rose with alaerity. Then he stopped. He must. of course. ask the strange boy to be his guest But two tickets Perhaps his allowance was not sufficient.
 "I must see first how much 1t costs" he said with dignity.
 The other boy laughed. "Oh, gee You come with me. It won't cost any thing" he said and led the way toward the towering lights.
 For Bobby Thorpe to bring a small boy to ride with him was an everyday affair. Billy Grimm. at the ticket win dow, hardly glanced at the boy who stood. trembling with anticipation. in the shadow of the booth.
 The car came. and they climbed in. Perhaps, as they moved off, Prince Ferdinand William Otto had qualm. occasioned by the remembrance of the English child who had met an un- timely end; but if he did. he pluckily hid 1t.
 Put your lid on the floor of the car," said Bobby Thorpe. depositing his own atom there. 'Father says. if you do that, you're perfectly safe"
 Prince Ferdinand William Otto di- vined that this referred to his hat. and drew 8 small breath of relief. And

TOMBSTONE PAPER
 MAKES CLAIMS ABOUT COUNTY SEAT REMOVAL
States That Question Is SiIl Pending in Court on Appeal and That Action of Board Was Illegal.

The Tombstone PrCspector in it's issue e last evening makes the fot- lowing claims as Co the County Seat Removal Question:
 Since the Douglas and 'Bisbee County Seat Boosters are aEain act iFe in the matter. the Prospector de sircs Co SHOW them where they stand at present
 'on June P. 1917. sn order was made by Judge V. A. O'Cculor, pro hibitins the board O. supervisors from taking any action upon the petition then pending. for the purpose Of ealing an electicn 10 submit the ques- tion of changing the location Of the ccunty seat. This order. while temporary order of prohibition. was also in the nature of an order to show cause why the writ 0f prohibition should not be made permanent 4 hearing was had under this order on Nov :. 1917. before Judge Frank Bax- ter of Yuma county. who. on NOvem- Der 10. 1917. rendered his judgment dissOlvfng the writ of prohibition. A notice Of appeal was fled by the pc 
 sion was rendered. and. upon appliea- tion To Judge Baxter. he fixed the amount of supersedeks bond. and bond was executed and approved by Judge Baxter on Dec 15. 1917. Upon tEe approval Of this bond Judge BaX- ter's decision of November 10th was superseded and the original order remains in effect until the supreme court shall have heard the appeal The action. therefore, of the beard of supervisors. on Dec IF. 1917. in dis missing the petition was wholly mug a1ory. and in reality in contempt Of court The petition filed last spring is still pending before the board Of supervisors. and it is doubtful ie a new petition can be filed until that enc is disposed Of.
 Another complication enters the situation from the fact that if the ae- fion of the board on December r can not be of effect. because of the ap- peal. then it but follows that any one signing another petition for the same purpose would be doing an Illegal act So that af-er the experience of the fifty odd Warren district people who were haled before the board of super viscrs on December IS il is unlikely that they will sign another petition until the matter is finally disposed of il the supreme court IL might not be bad idea let the whOlem alter rest until after the war
