that. He stepped back, was nudged,
and recollected.
"Also a gift" he said, and ruined a
fine speech among smiles. But the
presentation took place in due order,
and Otto cleared his throat.
'Thank you all very much" he said.
'It is a very beautiful gift. I admire
it very much. I should like to keep
it on my desk, but suppose it is too
valuable. Thank you very much"
The spokesman hoped that it might
be arranged that he keep it on his
desk, an ever-present reminder of the

hero, is scarce-very scarce"
Again the group laughed.
After a time he grasped the truth.
There was such an order. The cause
was given as the kings illness.
"Since when," demanded old Adel-

'The sound of wooden legs annoys
him. observed the hooking student,
lighting a cigarette. HE would hear
only pleasant sounds, such as the noise
of tax money pouring into his vaults.
Mel can think of pleasanter: the
tolling of the cathedral bell, at GER
tain time, will be music to my ears T.
Old Adelbert stood, staring ahead.
At last he went out into the street,
muttering. ''They shame us before the
people," he said quickly.
The order of the council had indeed
been issued, a painful business over
which Mettlich and the council had
pondered long. For, in the state OF
things. it was deemed unwise to per-
nit any gathering Of the populace en-
masse. Mobs lead to riots, and riots
again to mobs. Five thousand armed
men. veterans, but many of them in
their prime, were in themselves a
danger. And on these days OF ami
versary it had been the custom OF the
university to march also, guard OF
honor. Sedition was rife among the
students.
The order was finally issued.
Old Adelbert was i'll that night. He
tossed about in a fever. His body
ached, even the leg which so long ago
had moIdered in it's shallow grave on
battlefield. For these things happen.
By morning he was better, but he was
a different man. His eyes glowed. His
body twitched. He was stronger, too,
| for now he broke his sword across his
knee, and flung the pieces out of the
window. And with them went the last
fragment Of his old loyalty to his king.
Old Adelbert was now, potentially, a
traitor.
On the morning after Adelbert had
turned his back on his king, Bobby
Thorpe rose early, so early, indeed
that even Pepy still slept in her mar
row bed, and the milk sellers had not
started on their rounds. The early
rising was mistake, owing to watch

went downstairs and out on the street,
past the niece of the concierge, who
was Scrubbing the stairs.

Later deliveries sold about 20 to 27 points under last nights closing fig ures with October touching 24.25 and December 23.77. The more urgent offering appeared to have been ab- sorbed on this decline. however and rallies followed on covering prompted by rumOred private report placing the condition at S5.5 compared with the official end-,June figures Of S5.5. According to this report crop pros poets in Texas have deteriorated three points during the last two weeks with conditions elsewhere showing little change.
 Covering was further prompted by the western belt forecast for general ly fair weather and after midmorn- ing adjournment prices made further gains around midday on the detailed weather reports from the Houston district Light showers were report ed at only three points while there were maximum temperatures of one hundred degrees of over at 31 sta tions.

Chicago, July 11.-Fresh strength developed in the corn market today owing largely to unfavorable crop ad- vices.

Opening prices, which varied from 3-S decline to 12 advance, with August $1.55 1-2 to $155 3-4 and September $1.56 to $1.56 IA, were followed by a decided upturn all around.
