TREE MEMORIAL PLANS.
Massachusetts, Avenue and 18th
Street Are Suggested.

Massachuset it's avenue and 18th
street are being considered as appro-
pirate thoroughfare along which to
plant memorial trees in honor Of Dis
trict men who died in the military
service during the war.
1t is known that the Commissioners
have taken an interest in the plan
for memorial boulevard, which was
discussed at the last meeting Of Vim
cent B. Costello Post of the American
Legion. composed largely of District
government employees. The idea also
has received the Endorsement Of the
Association of Oldest Inhabitants Of
the District of. Columbia.
1t is probable that the project will
come up for action at a meeting Of
the District department of the Amer
lean Legion tomorrow night.
The tentative plan is to place a
small tablet on each tree bearing the
name and a brief record of the SOL
der to whom 1t is dedicated.
Present records of the War Depart
ment show that more than 500 Wash
ington men died in service during
the war. When the records of the
war are complete. however. It Is ex-
pected the number will be about SOC.

CHAPTER VII;

(The three travellers are we'll treated. by the
Austrian authorities and are guests Of the gen.
Odessa under the friendly guard Of the gen.
erals adjutant. At Odessa the prince sud
denly tells Henri Serdici, the narrator. that he
must try to arrange for the marriage the fol-
lowing day.
Now. while the idea Of this mar
riage was naturally nothing new to
me. L had expected no little difficulty
to attend it; had thought the day
still far off. / had supposed it was
not to be celebrated until we had
reached France, or at least had taken
steps to make the marriage in some
degree acceptable to Rumania.
But here was an imperious will and
! an ardent lover. The marriage must
! be tomorrow!
OF course it was quite impossible
for the ceremony to take place SO
soon. The red tape of the law and the
| church could not begin to unwind it
self in that time. But, further, a mar
riage at this time and under the cir
l.cumstances. was against all my con-
victions and hopes ! told both the
prince and Mile. Jeanne that no good
would result from this haste.
THE day will come when you will
both curse me for all this told
| them. And so far as my own posi-
tion is concerned. I am making my re-
turn to Rumania impossible"

at once Of the princes arrival in

they should conclude our escapade had
a political motive. if they should sus-
reach the French front, there was no
guessing what might follow.
No. it was necessary to take the
plunge and. as l say. l promised i'm
mediately upon the morrow to start
steps for the celebration of the mar
riage. This settled, Mile. Jeanne, who
was much exhausted. bade US good
night and went to her room, while
I, after a drowsy "bonne mutt" to the
prince. blew out the candle upon what
had been one of the most exciting
days of my life.
of perplexities and anxieties.
I had not quite finished dressing
when the prince awoke. He was volu-
BILE with renewed instructions, and as
he dressed he kept repeating warn
ings to be alert and not to let myself
be caught.
Spare no money" he told me over
and over, "omit no means to COM
plete the affair by night"
About o'clock I left the hotel. not

liant adjutant in the hall. He kindly
offered his help in whatever errand
I had.
