CONTINUBD FnOM SECOND IAGE
lie was a lieutenant In a Cossack
regiment and as he bowed to Stein
metz whom Paul Introduced he swung
off his high astrakhan cap with a flour
ish showing a fair boyish face
Yes he continued to Paul in Eng
lish The general sent mo over with
a sotnia of men and pretty hungry
you will And them We have covered
the whole distance since daybreak A
report reached the old gentleman that
the whole countryside was about to
rise against you
Who spread the report asked
Steinmetz
I believe it originated down at the
wharfs It has been traced to an old
man and his daughter a sort of ped
dler I think who took a passage down
the river but where they heard the ru
mor I dont know
Paul and Steinmetz carefully avoided
looking at each other They knew that
Catrlna and Stepan Lanovitch had sent
back assistance
Of course said Paul I am very
glad to see you but I am equally glad
to inform you that you are not wanted
Steinmetz will tell you all about it
and when you are ready for dinner it
will be ready for you I will give in
structions that the men be cared for
Thanks The funny thing is that I
am instructed with your approval to
put the place under martial lnw and
take charge
That will not be necessary thanks
answered Paul going out of the open
door to speak to the wild looking Cos
sacks sent for his protection
While the young officer was chang
ing his uniform for the evening finery
which his servants forethought had
provided Paul and Steinmetz hurriedly
arranged what story of the evening
should be given to the world Know
ing the county as they did they were
enabled to tell a true tale which was
yet devoid of that small personal In
terest that gossips love And all the
world ever knew was that the Princess
Howard Alexis was killed by the re
volted peasants while attempting to
escape by a side door and that the
Baron Claude de Chauiville who was
staying in the neighborhood met his
death in attempting to save her from
the fury of the mob
On the recommendation of Karl
Steinmetz Paul placed the castle and
village under martial law and there
and then gave the command to the
young Cossack officer pending further
instructions from his general com
manding at Tver
The officer dined with Steinmetz and
under the careful treatment of that
diplomatist inaugurated a reign of mili
tary autocracy which varied pleasing
ly between strict discipline and boyish
neglect
Before the master of the situation
had slept off the effects of his hundred
mile ride and a heavy dinner the next
morning Steinmetz and Maggie were
ready to start on their journey to Eng
land
The breakfast was served in the
room abutting on the cliff in the dim
light of a misty morning
The lamps were alight on the table
and Paul was waiting when Maggie
came down cloaked for her journey
Steinmetz had breakfasted
They said good morning and man
aged to talk of ordinary things until
Maggie was supplied with coffee and
toast and a somewhat heavy manly
helping of a breakfast dish Then
came a silence
Paul broke it at length with an ef
fort standing as it were on the edge
of the forbidden topic
Steinmetz will take you all the
way he said and then come back to
me You can safely trust yourself to
his care
Yes answered the girl looking at
the food set before her with a helpless
stare It is not that Can I safely
trust Ettas memory to your judg
ment You are very stern Paul I
think you might easily misjudge her
Men do not always understand a wo
mans temptations
Paul had not sat down He walked
away to the window and stood there
looking out into the gloomy mists
It is not because she was my cous
in said Maggie from the table It
is because she was a woman leaving
her memory to be judged by two men
who are both hard
Paul neither looked around nor an
swered
When a woman has to form her
own life and renders it a prominent
one she usually makes a huge mistake
of it said the girl
She waited a moment and then she
pleaded once more hastily for she
heard a step approaching
If you only understood everything
you might think differently It is be
cause you cannot understand
Then Paul turned around slowly
No he said I cannot Understand
it and I do not think that I ever
shall
And Steinmetz came into the room
In a few minutes the sleigh bearing
Steinmetz and Maggie disappeared into
the gloom closely followed by a cou
ple of Cossacks acting as guard and
carrying dispatches
So Etta Sydney Bamborough the
Princess Howard Alexis came back
after all to her husband lying in a
nameless grave in the churchyard by
the Volga at Tver Within the white
walls beneath the shadow of the great
spangled cupola they await the ver
dict almost side by side

CHAPTER XL
ETWEEN Brandon in Suffolk
and Thetford in Norfolk In
England runs a quiet river
the Little Ouse where few
boats break the stillness of the water
Three years after Ettas death in
the glow of an April sunset a Cana
dian canoe was making its stealthy
way up the river The paddle crept In
and out so gently so lazily and peace
fully that the dabchicks and other
water fowl did not cease their chatter
of nests and other April matters as
the canoe glided by
So quiet indeed was its progress
that Karl Steinmetz suddenly white
headed as strong old men are apt to
find themselves did not heed Its ap
proach He was sitting on the bank
with a gun a little rifle lying on the
grass beside him Ho was half asleep
In tho enjoyment of a large Havana
cigar The rays of the setting sun
peeping through the lower branches
made him blink lazily like a large good
natured cat
He turned his head slowly with a
hunters consciousness of the approach
of some one and contemplated the ca
noe with a sense of placid satisfaction
The small craft was passing in the
shadow of a great tree stealing over
the dark unruffled depth A girl dress
ed In white with a large diaphanous
white hat and a general air of brisk
English daintiness was paddling slow
ly and with no great skill
A picture said Steinmetz to him
self with Teutonic deliberation Gott
im Himmel what a pretty picture to
make an old man young
Then his gray eyes opened suddenly
and he rose to his feet
he muttered He drag
ged from his head a lamentable old
straw hat and swept a courteous bow
Mademoiselle he said ah what
happiness After three years
Maggie stopped and looked at him
with troubled eyes All the color slow
ly left her face
What are you doing here she ask
ed And there was something like fear
in her voice
No harm mademoiselle but good I
have come down from big game to ver
min I have here a saloon rifle I
wait till a water rat comes and then I
shoot him
The canoe had drifted closer to the
land the paddle trailing in the water
You are looking at my white hairs
he went on in a sudden need of con
versation Please bring your boat a
little nearer
The paddle twisted lazily in the wa
ter like a fishs tall
Hold tight he said reaching down
With a little laugh he lifted the canoe
and its occupant far up on to the bank
Despite my white hairs he said
with a tap of both hands on his broad
chest
I attach no importance to them
she answered taking his proffered
hand and stepping over tho light bul
wark I have gray onea myself I
am getting old too
How old he asked looking down
at her with his old bluntness
Twenty eight
Ah they are summers he said
mine have turned to winters Will
you sit here where I was sitting See
I will spread this rug for your white
dress
Maggie paused looking through the
trees toward the sinking sun The
light fell on her face and showed one
or two lines which had not been there
before It showed a patient tenderness
in the steady eyes which had always
been there which Catrina had noticed
in the stormy days that were past
I cannot stay long she replied I
am with the Faneaux at Brandon for
a few days They dine at 7
Ah her ladyship is a good friend of
mine You remember her charity ball
in town when it was settled that you
should come to Osterno A strange
world mademoiselle a very strange
world so small and yet so large and
bare for some of us
Maggie looked at him Then she sat
down
Tell me she said all that has
happened since then
I went back answered Steinmetz
and we were duly exiled from Rus
sia It was sure to come We were
too dangerous Altogether too quioxtlc
for an autocracy For myself I did
not mind but it hurt Paul
There was a little pause while the
water lapped and whispered at their
feet
I heard said Maggie at length in
a measured voice that he had gone
abroad for big game
Yes to India
He did not go to America inquired
Maggie indifferently She was idly
throwing fragments of wood into the
river
No answered Steinmetz looking
straight in front of him No he did
not go to America
And you
I oh I stayed at home I have
taken a house It is behind the trees
You cannot see it I live at peace with
all men and pay my bills every week
Sometimes Paul comes and stays with
me Sometimes I go and stay with
him in London or in Scotland I smoke
and shoot water rats and watch tho
younger generation making the same
mistakes that we made in our time
You have heard that my country is in
order again They have remembered
me For my sins they have made me
a count Bon Dieu I do not mind
They may make me a prince if it
pleases them
He was watching her face beneath
his grim old eyebrows
These details bore you he said
No
When Paul and I are together we
talk of a new heaven and a new Rus
sia But it will not come in our time
We are only the sowers and the har
vest is not yet But I tell Paul that
he has not sown wild oats nor sour
grapes nor thistles
He paused and the expression of his
face changed to one of semihumorous
gravity
Mademoiselle he went on it has
been my lot to love the prince like a
son It has been my lot to stand help
lessly by while he passed through
many troubles Perhaps the good God
gave him all his troubles at first Dot
you think so
Maggie was looking straight in front
of her across the quiet river
BtnmmmmammBmaalimaBBBBBBmaimmmMmmmmBBmmmBimmmmimmmmmmKmmmmmmmmmBt
Perhaps so she said
Steinmetz also stared in front of him
during a little sileuce The common
thoughts of two minds may well bo
drawn together by the contemplation
of a common object Then ho turned
toward her
It will be a happiness for him to
see you he said quietly
Maggie ceased breaking small
branches and throwing them into tho
river She ceased all movement and
scarcely seemed to breathe
What do you mean Bhe asked
He Is staying with me here
Maggie glanced toward the canoe
She drew a short sharp breath but
she did not move
Mademoiselle said Steinmetz ear
nestly I am an old man and in my
time I have dabbled pretty deeply In
trouble But taking it all around even
my life has had its compensations And
I have seen lives which taken as a
mere mortal existence without look
ing to the hereafter at all have been
quite worth the living There Is much
happiness In life to make up for the
rest But that happiness must be firm
ly held It is so easily slipped through
the fingers A little irresolution a lit
tle want of moral courage a little
want of self confidence a little pride
and It is lost You follow mer
Maggie nodded There was a great
tenderness in her eyes such a tender
ness as resting on men may bring
them nearer to the angels
Steinmetz laid his largo hand over
hers
Mademoiselle he went on I be
lieve that the good God seat 700 along

this lonely river In your boat Paul
leaves me tomorrow Hla arrange
ments are to go to India and shoot
tigers He will sail In a week There
are things of which we never speak to
gether there is one name that is never
mentioned Since Osterno you have
avoided meeting him God knows I
am not asking for him anything that
he would be afraid to ask for himself
But he also has his pride He will not
force himself In where he thinks his
presence unwelcome
Steinmetz rose somewhat ponderous
ly and stood looking down at her He
did not however succeed in meeting
her eyes
Mademoiselle he said I beg of
you most humbly most respectfully
to come through the garden with me
toward the house so that Paul may at
least know that you are here
He moved away and stood for a mo
ment with his back turned to her look
ing toward the house The crisp rustle
of her dress came to him as she rose
to her feet
Without looking round he walked
slowly on The path through the trees
was narrow two could not walk
abreast After a few yards Steinmetz
emerged on to a large sloping lawn
with flower beds and a long low house
above it On the covered terrace a
man sat writing at a table He was
surrounded by papers and the pen in
his large firm hand moved rapidly
over the sheet before him
We still administer the estate said
Steinmetz in a low voice From our
exile we still sow our seed
They approached over the mossy turf
and presently Paul looked up a strong
face stern and self contained the face
of a man who would always have a
purpose In life who would never be
petty in thought or deed
For a moment he did not seem to rec
ognize them Then ho rose and the
pen fell on the flags of the terrace
It is mademoiselle said Steinmetz
and no other word was spoken
Maggie walked on in a sort of uncon
sciousness She only knew that they
were all acting an Inevitable part
written for them in the great libretto
of life She never noticed that Stein-
metz had left her side that she was
walking across the lawn alone
Paul came to meet her and took her
hand in silence There was so much to
say that words seemed suddenly value
less there was so little to say that they
were unnecessary
For that which these two had to tell
each other cannot be told in minstes
nor yet in years It cannot even be told
in a lifetime for it is endless and it
runs through eternity
