of the committee.

King Karl.

"They love us dearlyi" said King
Karl.
The chancellor, who sat beside him
in the royal carriage, shrugged his
shoulders. "They have had little rea-
son to love, in the past, majesty" he
said briefly.
Karl laughed, and watched the
crowd. He and the chancellor rode
alone, Karl's encourage, very modest
one, following in another carriage.
There was no military escort, no pomp.
1t had been felt unwise. Karl, paying
ostensibly visit of sympathy, had
come unofiicially.
The chancellor was not so calm as
he appeared. He had lined the route
from the station to the palace with his
men; had prepared for every contin-
gency so far as he could without call

Old Adelbert covered his eyes. He
had gone too far to retreat now.
Driven by broodlng and trouble, he had

He sat silent while the concierge
cleared the table, and put the dishes

throughout the evening he said little.
AT something before midnight he and
his host were to set out on grave
matter. nothing less than to visit the
committee of ten, and impart the old
soldiers discovery. In the interval he
sat waiting, and nursing his grievances
to keep them warm.
Black Humbert, waiting for the hour
ITO start and filling his tankard repeat
eddy, grew loquacious. He limited of
past matters in which he had proved
his value to the cause. Old Adelbert
gathered that, If he had not actually
murdered the late crown prince and
his wife. he had been closely con-
cerned in it. His thin, old flesh crept
with anxiety. 1t was bad business,
and he could not withdraw.

Old Adelbert was sitting forward on

He was very shiny with soap and
water and his hair was still damp
from parting. In his tailless black
jacket, his long gray trousers, and his
round Eton collar, he looked like a
very anxious little schoolboy, and not
royal at all.
Greetings over, and having re-
quested that his tea be half milk, with
four Jumps of sugar, he carried his
cup over beside Hedwig, and sat down
on chair. Followed short silence,
with the archduchess busy with the
tea things, Olga Loschek watching

King Karls eyes cleaned with

toward the crown prince with earnest

The bit of byplay was not lost on
Kari-the sudden stiffening of He'd

been so mad about her he might have
pitied her, but he felt no pity, only a
deep and resentful determination to
get rid Of Milky, and then to warm
her by his own fire. He might have
to break her first. After that manner
had many queens of Karnia come to
the throne. He smiled behind his
small mustache.
When tea was almost over, the
crown prince was announced. He
came in, rather nervously. with his
hands thrust in his trousers pockets.
