the arms carved on tire wood work of the
cabin , while I hiirmlscd the lady might be
'drawn from my own observation In the box
at the Criterion theater the previous yiar.
I readied the Gare U'Orleaua abrut 3 that
afternoon , and the porter was loading a box
containing .some things I had borrowed of
llowell , when suddenly I saw a man whoso
race was familiar , step Into a cab. appar
ently without observing rao. If I were not
mistaken this was the fellow who had en
ticed mo Into the adventure. Giving my
man li francs I told him to keep the ether
< ab In sight , when there began a chase I
know not to what end. AVe turned from
ylrcet to street. 1 not noticing the Parisian
panorama to which I was returning. Hev
vend the Arc do Trlumphe the pursuit led ,
until finally the cab , evidently not Knowing
It was followed , drew up before a hotel on
the Avcruio du Hols d' Boulogne. The fel
low left the cab. Its door closed. I told
my man to draw to the curb. After sonic
hesitation I decided to go In , thinking of
this singular chance throwing In my way a
clew to the mj.stcry which I was resolved
not to neglect. Leaving the cab , I walked
to the dcor , where was a plato bearing :
"Mgr. lleux. "
I rang , asked for "Mgr. Heux" on a ven
ture
"Yes. monsieur , whom shall I say ? "
"M. Gerald , on an Important matter. "
The servant scrutinized mo , deciding to
let me enter. I had risked seeing Mgr.
Unix. I wondered what would come of It.
The servant loturnlng , said that his master
would seeme , and he showed mo ! i o a
simple room , bated of decorations , showing
the owner's taste of simplicity.
After Homo moments there entered by a
s'do door A pale , dark little man | n a cler
ical toat. His smooth-shaven face , the
slight figure , emphasized his youthful ap
pearance , which , nevertheless , seemed to
hold great cleverness. Ho knew the world ,
men , their foibles , Intrlguo. Ho lookexl mo
over , his gray eyes questioning.
"To what do I owe the pleasure , mon
sieur ?
"Ucoause , Monseignetir , I wish to place
the Identity of the person who entered the
hoii.se before me. "
"Masiinio ! What Is ho to you ? "
Hut I saw the question had startled Mgr.
Roux.
"Ho Is Just from America. "
"True. "
"I , too , have arrived from America
against my will , 1'osslbly monsclgncur may
explain ? "
The pi lest looked mo over narrowly ,
"I can't explain what I don't know , mon
sieur ; I am only a poor mortal. "
Tor the first tlmo I hesitated at my foolhardiness -
hardiness In venturing Into the power of
an unknown person , who might be one , at
least In purpose , with those who had ab
ducted me.
"Mgr , Heux , I don't know you "
"I am a Dalmatian , monsieur , " said ho ;
"n humble servant of Uomo. "
And then suddenly I recollected the name
Mgr Heux , the scholar , the diplomatist ,
thegioat Mgr. Heux , and this jouthful
priest was so different from my expectation
of what thin pvrsonago should be.
"You are not the Gerald the American
Gerald , " ho aald at last , returning my
recognition of his Identity by this apparent
knowledge of my naino ,
"Yes. Mgr. Hcux , " said I. remembering
again the potentiality my father had made ,
the ahccr force of money ; and , after all , I
could buy men , I remembered. My sense of
utter powcrlcssncss left mo , even before
that cunning yet mobile Helix's face always
WOH , I now noticed u certain aspect In
moiraelRiieur's manner. The late Parisian
afternoon lit his face , showing lines of
thought that made him older.
"And what can you know of Maasltno ? "
"What should I know what shouldn't IT'
"Humph everything , nothing that ho la
en auont of "
"Of , " I began.
"A Dalmatian agent of the czar , " said
monsolgnour- If defying mo , "Hut come ,
monsieur , this person has Agitated you.

"No , " nald > 1. For I reflected that hero

pressed my hand , looking mo over. "You
are lucky or unlucky. You have been In

"Do > ou mean ? " I began , remembering
something.
"The- prince of Dalmatln , M. Gerald. " said
Mgr. Heux , In excellent Kngllsh , "has en
tertained a suspicion of a plot to dethrone
him , and to place on the Dalmatian throne
the native house of the Romans , repre-

"Tho lady I have scon "
"Tho Princess Ikatrlce nomaga "
"And " I began ,
"The. Russian government and Prince

princess whom two deaths have made head

"And she wan at rested In the United

"I did not say that. " Mgr. Heux an

"Heoauso aho naturally thought her

"In short. " sail I. after a moment. "I

"Which has to do with the Russian as-

"Ho-v Is It that such a matter could be

"How Is ever ) thing done by the hand of

Into French.
"And I take It. " I began , "that Mgr. Heux

"And how , then , Monselgncur. am I to ex

"that the plot for the Honiara continues in

"I did not say that , monsieur " Hut his

self , and then I Knew that It wcs only m >
father's spirit In me the spirit that wanted
to dominate men and was restless when
others subdued It. This Dalmatian con
spiracy had made me Us puppet so far. I
would take a baud. Jlut was Mgr. Ucux

would risk It. I began :

"I can contrlmito to the revolutionary

'True , " said ho softly.
"What else can I do ? I can call on my
government to resent the outrage , for It
appears I was Interfering with the arrest

For to the accidents which in a month had

to control It. Possibly Mgr Houx'a charm
of manner may have Influenced mo perhaps
my memory of the Princess Ueatrlce. nut
whatever the reasons I burned my bridges
as merrily as a boy , reckless of cense
quences. I Ingratiated myself Into Mgr.
Houx1 confidence before that dinner was
over. He , with his more Impetuous Dal
matian nature , could understind how I
full , and finally took mo Into his further
conildonco to the point of letting mo know
that Huron Mastlmo , whoso acquaintance I
had made so unpleasantly In Now York ,
doubtless wan alining up thu very rebellion
that he , as auuut of thu tcovurumcut of
Dalmalta , had been trying to thwart by I
arrest of Princess Uentrlce. "How olhcTw
does ho dare to comn to mo ? Or U may

It was long past dusk when vvo heard the

hero already was confusion , and the com-
andant rushed down half dressed to auk
to explanation of this unexpected assault.
"You aurrondcr ? "
The Dalmatian looked about him at a
ilf-dozon men , evidently the whole force
' the place. They looked gratcgquo In
torr uniform , which resembles thu Servian
a mixture of Russian and German appoint-
cuts , with a fine disregard of any appro-
