said with q laugh "There is a sheer

this window. You see l could keep you

But you love mo too much for that"
said. "And. besides, Prothro, who
knows everything, would eventually guess
my hiding place; and the Mexican gov

Jarndyce, would use his gold against you
and crush you utterly"

crept into my arms to be petted. She
had somehow grown more beautiful in
my sight, and told her so.

asked.

You shall DO so. Could you paint me

I stood her in the light Of the window.
Eyes, yes, could paint you here" /
said.
The light is much better earlier IN
the day" she said. You shall come
every morning at 8, but we won't have
to enter by the crypt. There Is another
entrance, as you may have guessed"
Thirty minutes later, as We issued
through the crumbling fire place at the
back Of the hut of some ancient Next

Of the street, felt like person coming
from an exciting matinee into the hum
drum Of street life. The whole thing
seemed a moment later Ike a theatrical
performance And then tho thought
struck me: Perhaps that was all 1t was
after all. But one thing remained to
give that theory the lie-thqt was her
remarkable resemblance to the portrait
Of Saint Ynez in the church above.
Shall I keep your secret ?" I asked,
as we parted before my hote'

rather you would tell Prothro who and
what I am and try to employ him to

In the lobby Of the hotel I ran into
Seriano and Sifert Both were very cor
dial. ana this to my mind threw light
upon Madame Trabajar's new plans with
me. She had doubtless told them that
she meant to win me away from my
friends. I began to have the utmost
respect for the woman's Intelligence, and
began to wonder, also, If she were not
actually in love with me- as ] feared I
was beginning to be with her. With

CHAPTER VIII-Continued.

Then a gigantic fellow, who was evil
IDENTIFY their chief or their medicine man,
stepped forward and addressed her In
the same tongue in which she had spoken.
He looked at me from time to time as
he spoke, and I thought at times made
angry gestures toward me. 1 wondered
If she had told them that I was her
iance and If he were obJecting to me. l
shouldn't have blamed him If he was OBJ
Jecting to me. Because I am only six
feet tall-beside that giant q mere pigmy
OF man. Moreover, outside my being
cousin to a Wall Street king, l could,
Of course, lay no claim to royal blood.
After a time the big fellow ceased his
palaver and retired to the semi circle
with the others. Then Queen Ynez" ad-
dressed a few more words to them in their
language, but without rising and then
bade me in Spanish to stand up. AS
rose to my feet about half their number
bowed down, but the big fellow and ell
the rest remained standing and COW
cred. I saw that here was difficulty, and
somehow felt rather thankful for 1t be-
cause I didn't care to go through a tri-
bal marriage without being consulted, If
that was what my queen was up to.
But IN an instant she leaped to her
feet, and at that they all bowed as be-
fore. She spoke rapidly, and angrily,
and in moment the last man Of them
had backed and bowed from her pres
ence, disappearing not by the door by
which we had entered, but by a low pas
sage to the left Of the chamber, end
the brilliant light snapped out, leaving
the room dimly lighted as before.
AS soon as they were gone Ynez was
herself again. but still trembling from
some strange anger, She pulled me to
her and kissed my lips and said: Now
what do you think Of my pretenses to
royal blood ?"
Undoubtedly you're a QUEEN I said;
and furthermore, you have probably
Just now saved my life. But I'd like to
leave here now II you don't mind"

Revealer of Antagonist
Ghost Afflicted With
'Hant' in Jersey Home

DIR. Prince declined to disclose. saying
II would not increase the value Of the
property If the facts were known.
THIS GHOST
ROCKS BEDS.
DIR. Princes ghost, from HIS state
ments, appears even more remarkable
than that OF Antagonist. II rocks beds,
producing a sensation akin TO seaslck-
ness IN the occupier; it raPs, initiates
a peg-legged man walking on the floor
above the haunted bedroom and gives
other unearthly demonstrations OF its
presence.
Like the spook Of Nova Scotia, DR..
Princes private spirit is dependent upon
a girl for its communication with this
world. TheodOcia Prince, the scientist
daughter, is very psychic.

ghost is demonstrating for three years, Sc
DR.. Prince said. 1T made known It's
presence by raps which continued at
times for months.
Visions OF persons never known 70

Footsteps Of a man with one leg

usually occur In groups.
"One phase of tho unearthly phenomena
at my New Jersey home was the violent
shaking Of my daughters bed after she
retired. This would keep up sometimes
for half an hour.
when I occupied the bed the same
thing occurred. It produced a feeling
akin to seasickness."

The next morning Puss Junior found
that his good gray horse was too lame to
proceed upon the journey, so be left him
in care Of Brian O'Lin. who promised to
cure his leg and feed him well until such
time as he should recover. "In the mean
time. my good Sir Cat, see Of no way
except to walk, as far as you are con-
cerned."
These two legs Of mine" cried Puss,
have carried me many a mile hereto
fore: don't think they will fail me now
and he bravely started off on his journey,
after thanking the OLins for their hos
pitality.
He had gone but a little way when he
saw two blackbirds. So he commenced
to sing this old Mother Goose ditty:
There were two blackhirds
Sat upon a hill,
The one named Jill,
The other named Jill,
Fly away Jack!
Fly away JIM
Come again. Jack
Come again, Jill!'
And then, would you believe It, they
few away, hut pretty soon they came
II was about noontime, so Puss took
out OF his pocket a big raspberry jam
sandwich and commenced his lunch.
Come and pick up the crumbs" said
Puss, land I will tell you about little
boy and girl named Jack and Jill" So
the two blackbirds hoped down and ate
the crumbs listening all the time to Puss
Junior.
Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch
-
I was with them. But, oh, dear me! Just
rs they started to go down the hill Jack
tripped and fell down and crushed his
hat, and Jill-well. she came tumbling
after And got all spattered. and one Of
my shoes was haIfflle with water
And after Puss had eaten the jam sand
witch and the blackbirds picked up the
last crumb, he got up and stretched his
legs, and the blackbirds stretched their
wings and few off, singing merrily:
Careless Jack and careless Jill,
To let the pail OF water spill!'
Although we are but little birds
We've listened carefully to your
words
And if we're asked a pail to fill
Wen not be like your Jack and
Jiu!'
And in the next story you shall hear
what happened after that-Copyright,
