bringing out the Princess Hilda, who
was still,in the school room.
But the archduchess suddenly came
to business. She was an abrupt per-
son. "And now, general" she said,
''what is it?"
''I am in trouble, highness," replied
the chancellor simply.
'We are most of us in that condition
at all times. / suppose you mean this
absurd affair of yesterday. Why such
a turmoil about it? The boy ran
away. When he was ready he re-
turned. He is here now. and safes"
ST am afraid he is not as safe as
you think, madame"
"Why2"
He sat forward on the edge Of his
chair, and told her Of the students at
the university, who were being fired
by some powerful voice; of the dis
appearance of the two spies; of the
evidence that the Committee Of Ten
was meeting again, and the failure to
discover their meeting place; of dis
affection among the people, according
to the reports of his agents. And then
to the real purpose of his visit. Karl
of Karnia had, unofficially, proposed
for the Princess Hedwig. He had
himself preached the matter to the
king, who had at least taken it under
Amusement. The archducheSS list
ened, rather pale.
Madame, after centuries Of indie
pendence we now face a crisis which
we cannot meet alone. Believe me, I
know of what speak. United, we
could stand against the world. But a
divided kingdom, disloyal and dis
cOntented people, spells the end"
And at last he convinced her. But,
because she was built of contrary
mold, she voiced an objection, not to
the scheme, but to Karl himself. ST
dislike him. He is arrogant and
stupid"
but powerful, madame. And
what else is there to do?"
There was nothing else, and she
knew it. But she refused to breach
&he matter to Hedwig.
And it ended with the chancellor,
booking most ferocious but inwardly
uneasy, undertaking to put, as one may
say, flea into the Princess Hedwig's
small ear.
AS he strobe out, the door into the
next room closed quietly.

CHAPTER III.-coltinued.

The chancellor strobe around the
screen, scratching two tables with his
sword as he advanced, and kissed the
haI4d of the Princess Annunciata. They
were old enemies and therefore al
ways very polite to each other. The
archduchess offered him cup of tea,
which he took, although she always
made very bad tea. And for a few
moments they discussed things. Thus:

the place with trees; and the date OF

with the lips and ScOw1s with the eyes,
that speaks pleasantly quite awful
things, although it was Peter Niburg
who did most Of the talking.
And Herman hated Peter. The cash
Ter was gone, had married restaurant
keeper, and already she waxed fat.
But Herman's hatred grew with the
days. And business being bad, much
Of the time he stood behind his linens
and thought about certain matter,
which was this:
How did Peter Niburg do it?
They were paid the same scant
wage. Each Monday they stood to-
gether, Peter smiling and he frowning,
and received into open palms exactly
enough to live on, without extras. And
each Monday Peter pocketed his cheer
fully, and went back to his post, twirl-
ing his mustache as though all the
money of the realm jingled in his
| trousers.
To accept the inevitable, to smile
over ones poverty, that is one thing.
L \
his money go amazingly far. It was
! Peter, for instance, who the summer
before, the American Scenic Railway
had opened to the public, with much
crossing of flags, the national emblem
and the stars and stripes, it was Peter
who had invited the lady to an eve
ming of thrills on that same railway
at a definite sum per thrill.
1t was Peter, then, who made the
impossible possible, who wore good
clothes and did not have his boots
patched, who went, rumor said, to the
opera now and then, and followed the
score on his own battered copy.
| How?
Herman Spier had suspected him OF
many things; had secretly audited his
cash slips; had watched him for sur.
reptitious parcels of silk. Once he had
thought he had him. But the package
Of Lyons silk, opened by the pro
prietor at Herman's suggestion, proved
to be material for a fancy waistcoat
and paid for by Peter Niburg's own
hand.
With what? Herman stood con
fused, even COMPOUNDED, but still
suspicious. And now, this very day
he had stumbled on something. A
great lady from the court had made 9
purchase, and had left, under a roll
of silk, letter. There was no mis-
take. And Peter Niburg had put
away the silk. and pocketed the letter
after q swift glance over the little
shop.
An intrigue, then, with Peter Niburg
as the go-between, Or-something else
Something vastly more important, the
discovery of which would bring Her
man prominence beyond his fellows ir
certain secret order to which he be
longed.
In way, he was stupid man, this
pale-eyed clerk who sold the quaint
red and yellow cottons Of the common
people side by side with the heavy
linens that furnished forth the tables
of the rich. But hatred gave him wits
Gave him speed, too. He was only
thirty feet behind Peter Niburg wheI
that foppish gentleman reached thu
corner.
Herman was skilled in certain mat
tiers. He knew, for instance, that 6
glance into shop window, halt tt
tie a shoe, may be a ruse for pass
ing paper to other hands. But Peter
did not stop. He went, not more
swiftly than usual, to his customary

squads OF Red Guards were bivouacked Il
IN the richly carpeted lounging corri-
dor.
Iravel-stained soldiers and sailors
slept close to stacked rifles or sat in
luxurious armchairs munching chunks
OF army bread. Every inch of the floor
space of the big gilded dome building
was devoted to some phase of the revo

rooms in which formerly react; onary

employed.
There had been no clashes between
civilians and Red Guards. The armed
conflicts had been confined to the rev

cealment, who, it is said, were being
assisted by cadets and boy scouts.
