CHAPTER xxx.
COUNCIL OF WAR.

When Paris opened her eyes on
the morning of Thursday, the
18th Of October, it was to rejoice
at one of those soft and beautiful
days of autumn which make of
every house a dungeon to be es-
capped at the first possible mo-
ment. Even as early al 8 o'clock,
a perceptible tide had set in to-
ward the Bots de Boulogne, or,
rather, ~innumerable little tides,
which converged at the Place de
la Concorde and rolled on along
the Champs-E lysees in one mighty
torrent.
Against this torrent, a sturdy
and energetic figure fought its
way across the square; a figure
carefully arrayed in black morn.

he didn't find you, he hurried on
But Kasia had already started
for the stairs.
Dan paused for a last look at
the recumbent figure. Suppose
the man should die-suppose
something had happened to the
Prince-there would be the Ger
man empire to be reckoned with,
and the reckoning would be a
serious one-serious for himself,
for Kasia, above all for Ward!
Very thoughtfully he turned
away, followed Kasia down the
stair, passed along the hall and
through the open door. On the
step he paused and looked up and
down the street. The police were
not yet in sight.
With a little smile, Dan turned
and pulled the door shut. Then
he ran down the steps after his
companion.
"Let's go the other way he
said, as she turned toward Ninth
avenue. owe may as we'll keep
out of this. We can get the sub
way just below here"
And i'm another moment, they
had turned the corner.
Wherefore it happened that,
when the patrolman, in company
with three detectives, who had
been torn away from a game OF
pinocle and who were consequent
ly in no very pleasant humor,
reached the center of the block,
some minutes later, there vas nc
one in sight.
He said he'd wait for u.s." said
the patrolman, h%elplessly.
The detectives looked about
them, but there was no evidence
of anything unusual about any OF
the houses.

it on?" one of them asked.
He didn't say" answered the
patrolman.
"Well, what did he say3"

1t is true that Dan was not as
coherent as he might have been
and that the story he told sounded
like d pipe dream: but the police
man was undcniahly slow of COM
prehcnsion. AT first he smiled
good naturally.
