In the world and founded four hundred years after
Christ. Lebaudy already knew little about San Marino
and recalled that Napoleon had recognized the latter re-
public being equal with the other and greater
nations of the earth And Lebaudy had drank the famous
wine Of this republic and his heart rather warmed to the
idea of the possibility Of establishing himself president
of San Marino
Furthermore, it seemed such economical thing to
accomplish With population of only ten or eleven
thousand inhabitants there be considerably less than
three thousand voters Fifteen hundred votes would GER
tainly be majority. he paid as high as thousand
dollars vote it would him only million and half
dollars be elected president Of the oldest republic on
earth.
The scheme seemed very attractive Already Lebaudy
had spent than that of money buying up real
estate Dulcgno If he had invested this sum in practi
cal politics in San Marno he might already be the duly
elected head of little nation of perfectly good standing
There many things about the little republic of
San Marno which appealed to Lebaudy's imagination
and many things which he already began to think about
changing for the better At present it had national
army Of only nine regular troopers Lebaudy would very
much augment this force and cheerfuy pay the bill him.
self The army possessed only field pieces This Le
baudy would remedy by providing considerable battery
of modern guns
The present political scheme of electing a committee
of sixty to govern the republic Lebaudy regarded as anti
quated and cumbersome How much better to dispense
with this unwieldy committee and adopt the modern
and progressive scheme of president and cabinet All
this Lebaudy would attend to.
Lebaudy had natural artistic tastes and the beautiful
and picturesque always appealed to him. He much
interested to know that the thrty-eght square miles
which comprised the republic panorama of
passed SpendOr-mountains and peaks sea and plain.
Nowhere in the world is the architecture of the towns
the buildings and the churches more picturesque.

Onal relations between San Marno and the rest of the
world very satisfactory He was told that the little
republic maintained legation Paris and had consuls
In many other European cities Furthermore he learned
that there treaties between such great Powers as
England France and the United States and this little
republic Thus he became fully satisfied that any official
acts of his president of San Marno would be recoR.

There was still another why Lebaudy felt that
he must return Paris Two of his agents to whom he
had ntrusted the management of of his enterprises
after he began to occupy himself with imperial plans
behaving very badly. For months they had failed
make satisfactory accounting of moneys received and
Lebaudy had good reason to believe that they sys

operR effort to establish the Empire of Sahara He was
rather interested Was possible that the real Lebaudy
of whom he had read was at this moment in Turkish dun

Communicating with Vienna he discovered that the
embezler Gebhar had been arrested Clearly then the
prisoner in the dungeon in Scutari not the Vienna
absconder. Whether he Lebaudy not the Consul
was not 1t sufficient that he not the ab-
sconder Gebhart.
1t was great piece of luck, as Amneh realized, to
find that the Vienna absconder had been caught But
would the disappointed Turkish police of Scutar take
her word for i And here the bag of gold which Amneh
had secreted under her Turkish rOuserees proved of
great Importance because by the magic of its click the
Austrian Consul persuaded that perhaps his
duty accompany the beautiful Amneh back to Scutar
and take Lebaudy into his own custody.
With body emaciated and unstrung by his suf-
erngs in prison and lack of food Lebaudy rescued
and returned with Amneh to Dulcgno and regain
his health and strength He no condition to push
the plan of of poor sister Zobede that moment
His experience of ten days in the vile dungeon Of old
Scutari filed him with disgust.
1t was while Lebaudy was regainng his health and

who was searching for oil deposits He became much in

the Emperor that he could suggest scheme which was
quicker much cheaper and certain to accomplish his
ambitions than Lebaudys present plan buy up little
principality,
This American had had practical experience in New
York politics He explained to Lebaudy how easy and
how cheap it to buy majority in a voting district
Having made this aspect of practical politics very clear
he then told Lebaudy that he should abandon his plan of
purchasing small sovereignty and find some small re-
nubc where he could with his millions purchase the
presidency This was of course sordid proposition but
like Napoleon Lebaudy felt that his aims justified the
means

When we commenced the agitation

We had little sympathy and practi-
