package.
If a match could only be made be-
tween the bearer Of these titles and
some daughter Of an American arch
plutocrat, the. American and English
people would be united in a solemn al
lance. Thus united we would be able
to wage war successfully for all the
loot grabbed in the Paris treaty and
to defeat the league against the lea
que made at Paris. It is high time
our common people discovered the USE
fitness Of royalty. Practically all Of
our big city papers unite in telling US
how democratic the Prince of Wales
is.

merce, like the other leading demo-
cratic business organizations here, re-
ports that it is trying hard to secure
the honor Of a visit by so much no
bility. W. must now try hard to show
that the hard words we said about
royalty during the war we said to
arouse the common herd only.

How was he to find the courage to
impart the appalling news to her? He
was now convinced beyond all doubt
that the so-called sprouse had made

that only q miracle could bring about
Its recovery. He realized to what ex-

.And now for Chester Naismith. It
was he who, acting for the misguided
loyalists and recommended by certain
young a~ristocrats who by virtue Of
their own designations had come to
know him as q mar Of infinite re-
sourcefulness and daring. planned and
carried out the pillaging Of the palace
vaults. Almost under the noses Of the
foreign guards he succeeded in OBJ
tanning the jewels. No doubt he could
have made OF with them at that time,
but be shrewdly preferred to have
them brought to America by some one
else. It would have been impossible
for him to dispose Of them In Europe.
You e how cunning he is2
HE was no doubt thwarted In his
design to waylay me on the road from
Spanish Falls by q singular occurrence
in this tavern. He was attacked In his
room here, overpowered, bound and
gagged by two men. he knew the
men. They were thieves as clever and
a. merciless as himself. They too
were watching for me. I do not know
how these men learned Of my inten-
ton to come to Green Fancy"
They came to the Tavern four or
I'VE. days before your arrival at
Green Fancy" Barnes interrupted.
'Sprouse told me that they were Sc
cret service men from abroad and that
he was working with them. Ny theory
is this. and I think It is justified by
events: The men were really secret
agents, sent here to watch the move
ments of the gang up there. They
came upon Sprouse and recognized
him. On the day mentioned they over
powered him and forced him to reveal
certain facts connected with affairs ut
Green Fancy. Possibly he led them to
believe that you were one Of the con-
spirators. They waited for your ar
rival and then risked the hazardous
trip to Green Fancy. They were dis-
covered and shot"
II believe you are right" she cried.
'aThen we have accounted for Mr..
Sprouse, and I an no longer interested
In the unrayeling Of the mystery sur
rounding the deaths Of Room and
Paul." said Barnes. 'sThere is nothing
70 keep me here any longer, Miss Cam
r I suggest that you allow me to
escort You at once to your friends,
wherever they"
She was opposed to this plan. While
there was still q chance that Sprouse
might be apprehended In the sneighbor-
hood. or the possibility Of his being
caught BY the relentless pursuers, she
declined to leave.
'.Then, / shall also stay" said he
promptly, and was repaid by the
tremulous smile she gave him. he was
help1essly in love with this beautiful
cousin Of kings and queens. And
when he thought Of kings and queens
hs realized that beyond all question
his love was hopeless.

AUSTRIANS INVITED TO
AN AMERICAN duel"
PRESS STILL DISCOUNTED
OVER PEACE TERMS.
Say People Have Option Of
Shooting Themselves or
Being Shot.

Vienna, July 25.-(A. P.)-The new
terms of the Austrian peace treaty
are making no special impression on
the general public. The newspapers,
however, remark that the world is
still attempting to treat Austria as
great state instead of one which
has lost Ave- sixths of\ her territory
and been reduced from a great en-
pire of 55,000,O00 persons TO $780,
900. who are facing winter in which
hundreds OF thousands are sure to
die of famine or cold.
The Neue Freie Presse says: THE
allies wish to force Austria into
bankruptcy and thereby get prior
claim on her income. which will be
applied to damages and reparations."
DR.. Karl Renner, the German
Austrian chancellor and head of the
peace delegation which visited st.
German, in an interview published
here says: I'VE are invited to an
American duel; that is. we have the
option of shooting ourselves or being
shot. Within the next ten days the
Austrian delegates must furnish
proofs that Austria Is willing to pay
with assets which are inconsistent"
DIR. Alfred Treichl. managing di-
rector Of the Anglo-Austrian bank,
said today TO the correspondent:
"Since the war Austria has been |
stripped gradually of her possessions |
until she is now deprived of what !
other countries consider necessaries |
of life, as she Is without food and |
without COAL The only solution for |
our people is emigration.
with a gold reserve of possibly |
300,000,000 (crowns), we are ex-
pected to redeem banknotes in for |
eign countries totaling from $780,
100000 to 7.000o00,000 and a war
loan OF possibly half a billion. mostly
held in Germany. or $1,000, 100000
banknotes printed in the empire we
now hold from 5000, 000, 900 to 7.000,-
000, 900.
whatever the peace terms, they
probably\will not be executed, as any
commission sent here to supervise
their execution will discover that it
cannot be done"
