"Neither!" Fabien's calmness an
noyed the King.
With an angry gesture Louis
ripped off his mask and exposed him
self to the interested spectators, whe
by this time had gathered close about
the table.
"The Kingl King Louis of Francep
came in loud whispers from many
| throats.
Although Fabien knew the identity
of his opponent, there was no reason
to admit it until now. He had moi
been granted the honor of being prop
cry presented. The King, on his part
had felt secure in his incognito. He
had entirely forgotten about the royal
coat of arms on his little finger ring
and had no idea that Fabien hac
known him from the first.
"Now we will play" said the King
as though the matter were settled be-
yond dispute. No one could refuse the
King of France.
81 am only a subject of France
you are her King" Fabien was not in
a position to say more, and it would
have been treason to refuse now that
the Kings identity had been made
known.
Without another word the King
picked up the cards. He omitted the
formality of cutting and dealt.
Manon and Fabien looked deeply
into each others eyes across the few
feet of space that separated them. Her
eyes were filled with pleading and
terror. Fabien's tried to say, Don't
worry, darling mine, l will win."
The Due de Richelieu restrained
Manon from going to Fabien's side.
When news Of the Kings presence
spread about the room other games
and tables were deserted. The air be-
came electric with tense excitement
and suspense. Everyone gathered
about the small table where His Ma
jesty King Louis of France was play
ing with the most expert card man
of Paris.
Fabien's face was stolid, inscru-
table. He was playing for his very life.
The King famed his cards and
glanced at them furtively with mar
rowing eyes. They played. Fabien took
the first trick. The King won the sec
ond. The third again fell to Fabien.
He hesitated long enough to catch
Manon's attention. His soul was in
his eyes, and she did her best to smile
back encouragingly. The game went
on.
"This will be the last deal, Mon
sieur-the next hand will decide the

"Do you care to continue ?"

"Do you care to continue ?" He
stacked his winnings in neat piles.
The King meditated a moment. He
prided himself on his playing and
was an ungracious loser. An idea that
had been struggling in the back of his
mind since learning of the relation
ship between Manon and Fabien sud
denly became clarified.
eve shall continue by all means
and the stakes are to be higher" he
said sharply
ut is immaterial to me-" Fabien re-
piled with shrug of unconcern.
King Louis noticed his opponents
indifference. 1t angered him. Deli
berately turning around in his chair
he looked at Manon with the same
sort of expression that a hungry wolf
flashes upon his prey.
Fabien did not miss the by-play. His
lips set in a hard, straight line. He
drew in his breath sharply and exert
ed every effort to refrain from MAX
ing a scene.
Manon was SO superbly created for
love that it is not strange the King,
as we'll as others, desired her. Nor is
it strange that Fabien, as her chosen
,, lover, should resent the covctous
glances that other men showered upon
her. One comfort was the assurance of
Manon's fidelity to him. He thought
her so good, so innocent and precious
that he forgot the horrible incidents
of the past which caused others to
classify her as a different woman en-
tirely.
When the King again turned his at
tention to the game Fabien's face was
inscrutable His hands were too well
trained to shake, but his heart was
pounding furiously.
With the effect Of just having
evolved the idea, the King said; eve
will resume playing. This time the
stakes will be any of my possessions
that you may choose to name against
-Mademoiselle Lescaut!"
For a serond Fabien's heart stopped
beating. His eyes shone like pin
points of steel. Without fear he looked
squarely into the Kings masked eyes
and said:
Monsieur does not reach to
Heaven for a star and fling it upon
the soiled cloth of a gaming table,"
A quick flush of anger suffused
Louis face. eve will play for the
stakes suggest" 1t was the King ra-
tber than the man speaking.
81 will not play!' Fabien's jaw was
set. Only his eyes smiled. With a ges-
ture of finality he placed his cards on
the table.

The Belle of Barcelona, musical
cimedy in three acts will be presented
at the Workers Hall the evening of
Friday, March 23. The matinee will be
Thursday afternoon, however. Beau
tiful costumes are being designed, and
the boys in the farm shop are building

this operetta, you will find yourself
in historic old Spain, the land of sun
shine, tambourines and castanets,
dashing senoritas, gallant senors, gay
toreadors, and thrilling romance. The
general theme of this comedy is an
Irishman abroad, an English COVER
ness in trouble, an American lieuten-
ant in love, and the Belle of BARGE

CHAPTER XVII-Continued

The King had decided that he want
ed Manon--he had also made up his
mind to play cards with Des Grieux
The two desires fitted together very
we'll. Without further ado he seated
himself at a small card table and sig
nified his desire for Fabien to take
the other chair.
The two men eyed each other spe-
culatively 1t was the Kings gaze
that shifted first, and to cover up his
annoyance he turned to the Due de
Richelieu and said, "See that we have
no onlookers."
The Due bowed in obeyance "Mon-
seigneur prefers quiet game" he
said to Manon, and offering his arm,
led her away to respectful distance.
They were joined by Lescaut, who
since Fabien's prosperity had become
a constant and faithful satellite.
Among the other interested specta-
tors was the Comte de Ravoir. The
sight of Manon aroused him as moth
ing on earth had ever done before, and
he so detested Fabien that his
thoughts were engrossed in devising
a plan whereby he could dispose of
him and again win possession of
Manon.
Manon was the innocent victim of
three mems desires. The Comte's
awakened interest literally put her in
a position that offered no security
from this man who had enjoyed her
exclusive society for short period.
The King also desired Manon and
was fast driving Fabien into a corner
from which he could no longer reach
out and protect his loved one.
At the card table the two players
continued to measure the possibilities
of the game and each other.
The King appropriated the first
deal. He lost the hand and sum of
money that brought forth an irrita-
bic frown. Fabien noticed it and in
quired politely:
The Carbon County news., 1928-03-22

to beat King" The double meaning
was significant to everyone. But each
time Louis smile quickly disappeared
as he saw his antagonist top his card
with an ace! He watched furtively
plainly annoyed rather than worried
at such unusual luck.
Fabien's steely eyes did not miss a
single move of his opponents. He
saw him manipulate card, although
he gave no sign. Up until this point
Fabien's success had been due entire
ly to luck. Fate had given him the ace
of spades, clubs and hearts as wei as
one useless card of small denomina-
tion. He had taken three tricks-the
game was his! Fabien permitted re-
lieved smile to relax his face, the last
trick would not matter Then why was
the King surreptitiously changing his
last card? Fabiens temples pounded
furiously.
The King was speaking: "The cards
we have played do not count. Who
ever takes this last trick winsl"
The injustice of the thing was ap-
palling. However, it made Fabien un-
derstand the hoplessness of the situa-
ton. No. 1t must not be hopeless. He
must win!
Fabien had learned how to cheat in
order to give Manon all the luxuries
she craved. Now he would cheat to
keep her for his own. 1t was we'll he
had practicable needed it. The King
was watching him intently. Fabien
did not waver. Catching Louis gaze
he looked into the pupils Of the roya
eyes until they contracted to needle
point dimension in an effort to shut
out the hypnotic force that prevented
| him from turning away. While Fa-
bien's eyes thus held the Kings at
tention he manipulated his last worth
less card. The card that was to de-
eide Manon's fate. He managed it SO
cleverly that Lescaut was the only
other one the room who knew what
had happened. His admiration did him
credit.
1t was Fabien's turn to play. He
turned up the ace Of diamonds! The
highest card left in the pack
No one dared make sound-theil
King had lostsl
A peculiar expression lighted up the
Kings face He looked slowly from
Fabien to the winning ace on the
table, then back to the lone card in his
own hand After a moments delibera-
ton he played-the ace of diamondsl
A breathless silence filled the room
The Chevalied Des Grieux had
been caught cheating. His face was
white, but he continued to look
steadily at the King.
Manon was terrified.
A CLEAN Of triumph made the
Comte De Ravoir look like a younger
and happier man. This was superior
to any punishment he had been able
to think of.
Lescaut, better than anyone in the
room, appreciated the seriousness OF
the Situation. He had grown sincerely
fond of Fabien and Manon and won
dered what he could do to help relieve
The Carbon County news., 1928-03-22

| the situation.
After what seemed an eternity the
King rose and said contemptuously:
Monsieur lie Chevalier, you are a
cheat-the stake is mine!"
At the first move from the King
Fabien also rose to his feet and under
cover of getting up he made a quick
significant gesture to Lescaut to get
Manon out of the room.
No sooner was the sign made than
Lescaut rose to the occasion and
started guiding her toward the door.
The Comte, however, understood and
attempted to book their way.
"Sire, you are the King" said Fa-
bien, quietly addressing His Majesty,
"and one dares not say of ones King
and he cheats"
The King was speechless with amaz-
ed fury.
The crowd gasped-could it be pos
sible? Two aces of diamonds were
played. Did the King substitute or did
lie Chevalier?
The Due de Richlieu and other loyal
subjects sprang to the defense of their
King with drawn swords, and Fabien
found himself facing them alone.

LET IN THE AIR

There are Several crying needs in
the local high school which should be
attended to as soon as possible. The
need of adequate ventilation has been
discussed before. Is the student al
ways to blame for his listless attitude
toward his work? No, he is not! No
person can put out work to the best
of his ability when he is constantly in
the midst of foul air. Opening the win
dows causes draft which is often
harmful. There is ventilation system
in this schoo', but it has never been
put to use. 1t is not doing anyone any
good while lying idle.
