Continued. The count could not quite under stand whether Napoleon meant lust what he ald or whether he wa a more r.cccmp'.'.shed diplomat than be believed him to be. "My main object In coming to you la another matter. I had a friend In my employment In the capacity of manager of the manufacturing of aero dromea. lie Is a very clever mechan ical and electrical engineer, by the name of Pantos Duprel. He ha left me very mysteriously, and In the com pany of the Countese rtostny. Of course, Imprel knew all the secret of my eerodromonee, and he could eas ily betray them. In fact, manufacture aerodromonee on hi own account I wish I could find out hi whereabout, a I have a few words to say to htm.

Thi finished the formal part of the visit and they talked a .hort time on ordinary topics.

He lundod once more on that beauti ful carpet of green. He drank once more from the crys tal lake and started on hi search. The bluish stnoko from a distant volcano attracted hi attention. He neared the active giant, circled over It thon went toward the southeast, where a new marvel of nature called him. Inclosed by rugged mountains) like the Garden of Kdnn, but a hundred time, larger, stretched a green, fertile valley. Krom the helRht at whicb be was Dying It looked like an enormou. basin, with a largo cone of almost per fect shape looming high In the center. It was an Ideal volcano, but Instead of smoke steam wa. pouring from Its mouth, and on It sides and around the base eeveral geysers spouted hun dreds of feet Into the air. The valley evidently was Inhabited, as It was highly cultivated, and towns and villages were seen. Napoleon flew toward tho steaming giant and circled around It, lower and lower, until, by chance, a liquid from one of the gey sers touched the Kaglo's wing. The aerodromone shuddered and the two wings came together with a shock and stuck. The machine fell down helplessly, like a crippled bird. It had come quickly, yet Napoleon had the presence of mind to turn the tall nidder to break the fall. He did not know whether he was falling to his doom or not: still he shouted ex citedly: "I have found It!" The machine crashed Into the marshy ground with terrific force. The man In It was hurled against the wall. He slid down Into a motionless heap, Ills eyes were closed, and the right side of his head waa bleeding from contact with the sharp corner of the bench. CHAPTER XX. Queen of the Air. A few day. after Napoleon's visit to Ilerlln tho chancellor related to the Princess Schomburg Llthow hi con versatlon with the president of the peace committee. "My doar count," remarked the beautiful Kosttta disagreeably, "you are getting old; you should retire from diplomatic service altogether. The chancellor took the rebuke as a Joke. Rosltta had become undisci plined lately, and said what she would "What do you mean by that?" "What do I meant Can't you ee Napoleon Edison's diplomacy Don't you realize that you gave him all the Information be wanted? As I said, it la time for you to retire and give your place to one who 1 clever enough to take care of It" "Our opinion, differ some-vhat, nrlncess. Personally. I am rather scrupulou.." She laughed, and all at once turned Into a different being. "Don't take my talk seriously. am nervous." "Thl. I. a hint to your friend that he may leaver' "That thought of your. 1. .ufflclent ly diplomatic. Stay. Count Duprel 1. coming, and he will want to talk to you." At almost the same moment Santo entered. The little man was trans formed. HI turdy, round figure had become thin. HI whole being ex pressed the high tension under which he wa working. HI face looked a If he had brooded over hi Borrow. and had become almost sullen. HI. eVoe lit up, however, when they re.tod on Rosltta. She .till had the power to do with him what she would. After greeting the Count von Wer- dcn.teln be told him that sixteen aero dromone. were finished, tried and stored awav. and five more were In the workshops. It waa only a ques tion of two or more months until they would be ready for action. -There Is one thing," said the count "Prom a military standpoint.

All we need, now, la the 'caaroa belli,' " remarked the chancellor. "That 1. simple enough. Request the peace committee to allow a stand ing army for European natlona," said Uosltta. We will see," .aid the chancellor, nd started to leave. He felt doubt ful of hla course. Ha had vague, un formed fears that haunted him. But nothing happened. HI. American .plea reported that Napoleon could not be located. Two weeks later be received news that there waa some uneasiness felt In Washington In regard to the Inexpli cable absence of Napoleon Edison. These reports were repeated day after day. What did this mean? The Count von Werdensteln waa unable to think of a reason for the absence, but be was not the only one who waa puialed. There were many who would have giv en much to know what had become of Napoleon Edison. Hla absence at first bad been unno ticed, as Astra felt that he would re turn at any hour, and turned aald the questions. Hut when the third week began, and .till they bad no word from him, she could not bear It any longer. The gray-haired mother, who auffored even more than Astra, soothed her and eald she would coma to the Crystal Palace at once, to ba with her. That evening Mrs. Edison arrived. and embracing the wife of her son he whispered: "He etrong and brave, my dear girl. You know Ju.t a. wen aa I do that he will come as soon aa e can. I fear he has had an acci dent to his aerodromone, but my heart tells me he Is In no danger. Above, all. we must have trust In God!" . At Astra's request the various pa pers treated the matter lightly. Roeltta wa one who wa reauy baffled by the lengthened absence of Napoleon. She and Santos taikaM about It seriously, but the little count waa as puzzled as the. This disap pearance had not fitted Into her plana. She wanted to gain a victory over Na poleon, not over America, Her ambition were great, oui one of the greatest was to humble Napo leon. She bad figured out a devuun plan to destroy his base of supplies. Clryne. Even her husband snuaaerwa when she told about It He tnougni of the many days he had spent among the men there, and the pleasant com panions that he had left behind. A tremendous bomb was to do con structed; a bomb of euch size that lta explosion would cause a genuine earth quake. Great quantities of the high est grade explosives were to be placed In a large metal shell, which would be dropped on the Island of Clryne and blow It Into space. Clryn was Napoleon's laboratory; there were his aerodromonee aeiw, and If these were destroyed, he never would be able to gain the victory. The fact that Napoleon's mother and all his mechanics were to be destroyed did not influence Rosltta's plans In tha least Seven weeks went by. The situation was the same, except that the flotilla of twenty aerodromones was ready at Suemeg and Its crew was practicing maneuvers day after day. They were worklnc on one more machine, as Ko- sltta was superstitious, believing that the number twenty-one was her lucky one. The European monarchs had all signed a decree demanding the right of restoring a standing army, and this demand had been sent to the peace committee In Washington. This request waa couched in re spectful terms, but conveyed the Infor mation that In case tne same was re fused the European countries would act according to their own convictions. No mention wa made of the aerodro mone fleet, but American secret agents had discovered the existence of tht. fleet and a shrewd reporter on the Hourly Stylograpn managea v gain the Information. Whole pagea advertised the tact tnat K was reauy to swoop down upon the American continent and conquer it Then th rival papers took it up and vivid fan cies were printed; some declared that Napoleon Edison was held a prisoner, and would be compelled to Join th European forces to ave hla life. In the meantime the congress ana the peace committee considered th European demand. Amroslo Hale, Vice-president, oeuv- ered a great address, urging the union to Isolate the American continent again. (TO BE CONTINUKDJ Value of Child. The case of Jones vs. Central of Georgia railroad company befor th Supreme court of Georgia waa brought by a parent for damages tor the death of a child two years tea month and twenty days old, alleged to be a "precocious child, capahl of and did run errands for the petitioner, was strong and robust, with unusual physical powers for a child of hi age, and did render service to peti tioner worth $5 a month." Th eourt holds as a matter of law that th child thus described was not so Incapabl of performing uch valuable services that a defendant corporation would not be liable In damages for th homo clde of such child if it be shows on the trial that tha killing waa throucn negligence and not Justified. 6timulat Summ.r Trav.L Bummer travel 1 stimulated In Wale.
