Quo evunliiK at u bull nt ttio German embassy nt Paris M. tie B.. a brilliant young; Journalist tlien represent I nir tue Loudon Times nt the French capital, una standing looking ou nt the dan cers when a girl possessing a Teutonic cast of comitcunueo passed leaning on the ii rm of the German nmhnssnrior. Her eyes met theme, of De B.. and, though she lowered them modestly, mill there was that lu her exprefwlon which revealed to tho young Journalist that he hail nmde an Impression. Ho sought tho ambassador uiul begged an Introduction. It was granled, and Do II. was presented to Mario von I'llen stein of Berlin, a niece of Prltico Bis ninrck. 1'H B. met the fraulcln often In so ciety, and at every meeting tho mutu al pleasure appeared to bo greuter than at the previous one. Within a few weeks ho was encouraged to make ber a proportion of marriage. Bho ac knowledged that sho was greatly pleas ed with hliu, but that no definite an swer could be given without consulta tion with her family, and cspeclolly her uncle, the chancellor. "You think." sho added, "that I nm seizing upon a pretext to put you off. To couvlnce you to tho contrary, I will conflde to you what this engrossing subject Is. Our government, fearful Hint France, displaying such remark alilo recuperative powers, will soon grow strong enough to tuke revenge for tho blow received In the late war, is about to pick a qunrrel with the French, march ou l'nrls and level it" Tho Importing of such n remarkable pleco of news to hliu, a Journalist, by a niece of tho real ruler of Gormnny threw Do n. Into a fearful state of doubt. What could It mean? He soon loft the fraulolu, going to another 'apartment to think. Two Germans near him were talking together, and he beard ono of thorn mention the name of Marie von Ullonsteln, where upon the other added, "It Is said that tho chancellor intrusts her with many delicate bits of diplomacy." The words did not reassure the lis tener. vHe left the embassy, went to his apartments and lay awake all night thinking of his strange adventure. What should he do? Whether the news the f rauleln had given him was true or false, It was bis duty as a Frenchmnn to Impart it to tho president of France. Hut this compelled the betrayal of a confidence reposed In him by the girl lie loved. After a terrible mental strug gle, absent tho Information to bis pa per. Ifs pulillniMmi nttrauti'Q consider j able attention fur the time being, Ibeu j was dropped by the public as u piece of niauufnctured news. k j Ho tt. kept away from Mario vou l'l-j leusteln. Tito day after the pnblfea j Hon of the news slip bad given him he ; beard thnt she had left Paris. One of j two thlugs' was probnMo, Either she j hud been recalled by her uucle to he; punished for revealing state secrets or j she had manufactured the news to test I him. As time passed and he heard nothing of German preparation to In- i vndo France he made up his mind that tho latter hypothesis was correct. In either case his mental sufferings were almost unendurable, loving desperate ly, as he did. the girl whose confidence ho had violated. Thou camo an offer from n Paris pa per for him to act ns Its Berlin corre spondent. . A burning desire to see Marie von rilenstoln once n'tre. even though she spurned hltu, decided Mm. and ho went to Berlin. It was not long before he mot her lu company. To his surprise she nodded to him and smiled. Her nctlon couvluced him that sho had manufactured tho news she had given him and, finding him unworthy, had become Indifferent to bim. Eager to learn tho truth, he took the first oppor tunity to Jolu hr.' "Well," ho said, "yon saw that I re garded my duty Instead of my love." "Don't let us talk or that," she re plied. "Your act did ho harm." "No," he said gloomily. "There Is no harm In manufactured news." "The news was not manufactured. You did your duty. Why have you not written mo?" ' "I? Write yon after' having reveal ed your secret?" "I expected you to revoul It. Indeed, I wished you to do so." ' "Why?" "If I had Intended the secret to be kept, I 'would not have Imparted It to you. Your duty to your country com pelled you to reveal, it." . "You used me ns n tool, then." "Yes." "And your consent to consider me a suitor was a part of your scheme." "It had nothing to do with my scheme." A flood of Joyous relief welled up In Do B. "You have given mo one commence," ne bum. "ir you are uoi . displeased witn mo, give uie anotner. Explain." "I have nt times." she replied, "been Intrusted by my uncle with delicate diplomatic maneuvers. Ho had been long worried by the war party who were determined to destroy France, thus antagonizing tho civilized world. Finally they carried the day, and war was decided on. My uncle commis sioned me to go to France and let out the secret, especially for England, ex pecting that power would interfere. I chose you as my medium. As soon as the news was published in England word was communicated by the Brit ish minister here that if we attacked France we must also attack England. That settled the matter." Later the betrothal of M. de B. and Marie von Ullenstein was announced.
