CHAPTER XXII.
The night came on , fair and still , clear
and stnrlit ; but there was nc moon ano\
outside the immediate neighborhood of the
main streets , the darkness vas enough
to favor our hope of escaping rotice with
out being so intense as to embirrass our
footsteps. Everything , in fact , seemed to
be on lur side , and 1 was full of buoy
ant confidences as I put my revolver in
my pockee and , on the stroke of midnight ,
stole from my lodgings. I looked up to
ward the bank and dimly descried threa
or four motionless figures , whom I took
to be sentries guarding the treasure. The
street itself -as almost deserted , but from
where I atood I could see uhe Piazza
cro dsd with a throng of people , whose
shouts and songs told me that the Cole
nel's hospitality was being fully appre
ciated. There was dancing going on to
the strains of the military baud , and ev
ery sign showed that our good citizens in
tended , in familiar phrase , to make a
night of it.
I walked swiftly and silently down to
the jetty. Yes , the boat was all right ! 1
looked to her fires , and left-her moored by
launched into the
one rope ready to be
calm black sea in an instant. Then I
strolled along , by the barber side. Here
I met a couple of sentries. Innocently
I entered into conversation with them ,
condoling on their hard fate in being kept
on duty while pleasure was at the helm
in the Piazza. Gently deprecating such
excess of caution , I pointed out to them
the stationary lights of The Songstress ,
four or five miles out to sea , and with a
respectful smile at the Colonel's uneasi
ness , left the seed I had sown to grow in
prepared soil. I dared do no more , and
had to trust for the rest to their natural
inclination to the neglect of duty.
When I got back to the bottom of Lib
erty street , I ensconced myself in the
shelter of a little group of trees which
stood at one side of the roadway. Just
across the road , which ran at right an
gles to the street , the wood began , and a
quarter of an hour's walk through its
shades would bring us to the jetty where
the boat lay. My trees made a perfect
screen , and here I stood awaiting events.
For some time nothing was audible but
an ever-increasing tumult of joviality
from the Piazza. But after about twenty
minutes I awoke to the fact that a con
stant dribble of men , singly or in pairs
had begun to flow past me from the Pi
azza , down Liberty street , across the road
behind me , and into the wood. Some were
in uniform , others dressed in common
clothes ; one'or two I recognized as mem
bers of Johnny Carr's missing band. The
strong contrast between the prevailing
revelry and the stealthy , cautious air of
these passers-by would alone have sug
gested that they were bent on business :
putting two and two together , I had not
the least doubt that they were the Presi
dent's adherents making their way down
to the water's edge to receive their chief.
So he was coming ; the letter had done
its work ! Some fifty or more must have
come and gone before the stream ceased ,
and I reflected , with great satisfaction ,
that the Colonel was likely to have his
hands very full in the next hour or two.
Half an hour or so passed uneventful
ly ; the bonfire still blazed ; the songs and
dancing were still in full swing. It was
close upon the fateful hour of two. when ,
looking from my hiding place , I saw a
slight figure in black coming quickly and
fearfully along the road.
I recognized the Signorina at once , as
I should recognize her any day among a
thousand , and as she paused nearly oppo
site where I was , I gently called her
name and showed myself for a moment.
She ran to me at onca
"Is it all right ? " uie asked , breath
lessly.
"We shall see in a moment , " said I.
"The attack is coming off ; it will begin
directly. "
But the attack was not the next thing
we saw. We had both retreated again to
the friendly shadow when we could see
without being seen. Harflb- had we set
tled ourselves than the biguorina whis
pered to me , pointing across the road to
the wood :
" ' Jack ? "
"What's that.
I followed the line of her finger and
made out a row of figures standing mo
tionless and still on the very edge of the
wood. It was too dark to distinguish in
dividuals ; but even as we looked the si
lent air wafted to our eager ears a low-
voiced command :
"Mind , not a sound till I give the
word. "
"The President ! " exclaimed the Sig
norina , in a loud whisper.
"Hush , or he'll hear , " said I , "and
we're done. "
Clearly nothing would happen from that
quarter till it was called forth by events
in the opposite direction. The Signorina
was strongly agitated ; she clung to me
closely , and I saw with alarm that the
very proximity of the man she stood in
such awe of was too much for her com
posure. When I had soothed , and I fear
half-frightened , her into stillness , I again
turned my eyes toward the Piazza. The
fire had at last flickered out and the revels
seemed on the wane. Suddenly a body of
men appeared in close order , marching
down the street toward the bank. We
stood perhaps a hundred yards from that
building , which was , in its turn , about two
hundred from the Piazza. Steadily they
came along ; no sound reached us from
the wood.
This ia getting interesting , " I said.
* There'll be trouble soon. "
As near as I could see , the Colonel's
band , for such itwas no doubt , did not
number more than five-and-twenty at the
outside. Now they were at the bank. I
could hardly see what happened , but there
seemed to be a moment's pause ; probably
someone had knocked and they were wait
ing. A second later a loud shout rang
( trough the street and I saw a group of
figures crowfilng round the door and push
ing a way into my poor bank. Then I
hoard a short , sharp order from behind ,
"Now ! Charge ! "
As the word was given another body of
B.-tv tir 'mora rushed by us f\ll : tilt *
at their head we saw the President , eirorc
in hand , running like a young man and
beckoning his men on. Up the street thej
swept. Involuntarily we waited a moment
to watch them. Just as they came neai
the bank they sent up a shout :
"The President ! the President ! Deatl
to traitors ! "
Then there was a volley , and they clos
ed round the building.
"Now for our turn , Christina , " said I ,
She grasped my arm tightly , and we
sped across the road and into the wood
It seemed darker than when I came
through before , or perhaps my eyes were
dazzled by the glare of the street lamps.
But still we got along pretty well , I help
ing my companion with all my power.
"Can we do it ? " she gasped.
"A clear quarter of an hour will do it ,
and they ought to take that to finish ofi
the Colonel. " For I had little doubt oi
the issue to that melee.
On we sped , and already we could see
the twinkie of the waves threugh the thin
ning trees. Five hundred yards more , and
there lay life and liberty and love !
- Well , of course , I might have known.
Everything had gone so smoothly up to
now , that any student of the laws of
chance could have foretold that fortune
was only delaying the inevitable slap in
the face. A plan that seemed wild and
risky had proved in the result as effectual
as the wisest scheme. By a natural prin
ciple of compensation , the simplest obsta
cle was to bring us to grief. "There's
many a slip , " says the proverb. Very
l.kely ! One was enough for our busi
ness. For just as we neared the edge of
the wood , just as our eyes were gladdened
by the full sight of the sea across the in
tervening patch of bare land , the Sig
norina gave a cry of pain and , in spite
of my arm , fell heavily to the ground. In
a moment I was on my knees by her side.
An old root growing out of the ground !
That was all ! And there lay my dear
girl white and still.
"What is it. sweet ? " I whispered.
"My ankle ! " she murmured : "oh. Jack ,
ic hurts so I" and with that she fainted.
Half an hour thirty mortal minutes I
knelt by her side ministering to her. I
bound up the poor foot and I fanned her
face with my handkerchief. In a few
minutes she came to , bu tonly , poor child ,
to sob with her bitter pain. Move she
could not , and would not. Again and
again she entreated me to go and leave
her. At last I persuaded her to try and
bear the agony of being carried in my
r.rms the rest of the way. I raised her
as gently as I could , wrung to the heart
by her gallantly stifled groan , and slowly
and painfully 1 made my way , thus bur
dened , to the edge of the wood. There
were nc entries in sight , and with a new
spasm of hoixi I crossed the open land and
neured a little wicket gate that led to
the jetty. A sharp turn just before we
reached it , and. as I rounded this with
the Signorina lying yet in my arms , I
saw a horse and a man standing by the
gate. The horse was flecked with foam
and had been ridden furiously. The man
was calm and cool. Of course he was !
It was the President !
CHAPTER XXIII.
My hands were full with my burden ,
and before I could do anything 1 saw the
muzzle of his revolver pointed full at
me ? Oh , no ! At the Signorina !
"If you move a step I shoot her through
the heart , Martin , " he said , in the quiet-
jst voice imaginable.
The Signorina looked up as she heard
liis voice.
"Put me down , Jack ! It's no use , " she
said ; "I knew how it would be. "
I did not put her down , but I stood
; here helpless , rooted to the ground.
"What's the matter with her ? " he said.
"Fell and sprained her ankle , " I re
plied.
"Come , Martin , " said he , "it's no go ,
ind you know it. A near thing ; but
cou've just lost. "
"Let me put her down , and we'll have a
: air fight. "
He shook his head.
"All very well for young men , " he eaid.
'At my age if a man holds trumps he
ceeps them. "
"How long have you been here ? "
"About two minutes. When I didn't
> ee you at the bank I thought something
, vas up , so I galloped on to her house.
S'o one there ! Sol came on here. A
jood shot , eh ? "
In the bitterness of my heart I could
mrdly speak. But I was not going to
) lay either the cur or the fool , so I said :
"Your trick , sir , and therefore your
cad. I must do what you tell me. Take
he revolver if you like , " and I nodded my
icad to the pocket where it lay.
"No , " he said , "I trust you. "
"I bar a rescue , " said I.
"There will be no rescue , " said he
; rimly. "The Colonel won't come.
tVhose house is that ? "
It was my boatman's.
"Bring her there. Poor child , she suf-
ers ! "
We knocked up the boatman , who thus
lid not get his night's rest after all. His
. .stonishment may be imagined.
"Have you a bed ? " said the President.
"Yes , ' ; he stammered , recognizing his
nterlocutor.
"Then carry her up , Martin ; and you ,
end your wife to her. "
I took h r up. and laid her gently on
he bed. The President followed me.
'hen we went downstairs again into the
ittle parlor.
"Let us have a talk , " he said.
The President sat down. I was sur-
irised at his leisurely , abstracted air.
ipparently he had nothing in the world
o do but sit and keep me company.
"If your excellency , " said I , instinc-
ively giving him his old title , "has busi-
ess elsewhere you can leave me safely ,
shall not break my word. "
"I know that I know that , " be 2 -
wered. "But I'd rather stay here ; I
rant to have a talk. You see there's no
anger now. There's no one left to lead
iiODi against me. "
"Then the Colonel KJ ? "
Yes , " he said gravely , "he is dead. I
but Him. "

"And you killed him in cold blood ? "
The President smiled slightly.
"But for yonr scheme I aaould havt

"but then I sh&nld have shot McGregor
just the same. "
"Because he led the revolt ? "
"Because , " said tb President , "he baa

he added , with a shrng. "because be stood

NEW GAME ON TRAINS.
About 3Ian with Carrln and Far
Snre-ThinHT Bet.
A forlorn Ind "idualwith a "tele
scope" grip in one hand and an empty
pocket boolc in the other , enlightened
the detectives at the union station the
other day concerning the latest wrinkle
in confidence games , according to the
Kansas City Star. The mehmcholy one
had just been relieved of $50 by a
couple of chauce acquaintances on a
train.
"This Is how it happened , " said the
traveler : "I was coming from Okla
homa , and after leaving Fort Scott sat
in the smoker with a man who got on
at that station. We chatted a bit and
were watching a game of cribbage
among some traveling men across the
aisle when a man came through the car
\viti a pack of playing cards in his
hand. He stopped by the cribbage play
ers and asked them to buy the cards.
They refused , so ho turned to our seat :
" 'Gentlemen , ' he said , 'I'd like to
sell these cards. They are of unusual
ly good quality , and I'll sell them for
the price of au ordinary deck. '
" 'Let's see , ' said my seat mate , tak
ing the pack. 'I don't see anything re
markable about these. They look like
ordinary 25-cent cards to me. '
" 'All right , ' replied the owner of
the cards in an offended tone ; 'if you
can't distinguish the difference in the
quality of cards , there's no use in my
wasting time talking to you. '
"lie reached for the pack , and as it
was handed bade to him one of the
cards fell to the floor , apparently un
noticed by the owner. My seat mate ,
however , saw the card fall and said
banteringly :
" 'Those cards may be extra fine , but
I'll bet there is not a full pack there. '
"The owner of the cards glared In
dignantly at my seat mate.
" 'You say you will ? ' he exclaimed.
'Now what will you bet on that ? '
"My companion had already covered
the card on the floor with his foot.
" 'Oh , I'll cull anything you've got,1
he laughed.
"Without more ado the card sales
man lugged out a bundle of bills and
announced that he didn't like to take
candy from infants , but that he would
bet a hundred , even money , that the
pasteboards in his hand composed a
full deck of fifty-two cards , not count
ing the joker. This , of course , looked
like Christinas expenses to us , who
knew that one card of the pack lay on
the floor.
" 'I'll let you in on half of the bef
said my seat mate generously , and , of
course , I jumped at the chance.
"The money was posted , the cards
were counted and the deck found to
be complete. My seat mate and the
card salesman left the train at the i
next station. Of course , I see it all' '
now that is , all but one thing :
"Why did it not occur to me that
there was something odd in a man
having $100 who had a moment before
been trying to peddle a two-bit pack of
cards ? "

Imitations have been placed upon tha
market so closely resembling Allcock's
