The Pennsylvania legislature la go

Think of that, you pessimists. Think

that enough to perk'. up the faintest

For more than 40 years, from tho

once when, sick of the awful stench

CHAPTER XVIII.
BY THE WATER GATE.
T was a vn :. lofty apartment,
regal In its subdued lights. An
enormous gulden bed with gor
geous hangings stood far down
the room. So huge was this royal
couch that Truxton at first overlooked
the figure sitting bolt upright in the
middle of it.
An old woman advanced from the
head of the couch and motioned Trux
ton to approach.
I am deeply honored, your high
ness, said the vluitor. ' bowine verv
ow. .
The prince's legs were now hanging
over the edge of the bed. His eyes
were dancing with excitement.
'I want you to find Uncle Jack, Mr
King." said Bobby eagerly. "And
tell him 1 didn't mean it when I .ban
ished him the other dny. I really and
truly didn't." He was having diffi
culty In keeping back the tears.
I shall deliver the message, your
highness," said Truxton. his heart
going out to the unhappy young
ster.
"Americans always do what they
will," said the boy, his eyes snapping.
"Here's something for you to take
with you. Mr. King. It's my lucky
stone. It always gives good luck."
He unclasped his small fingers. In
the damp palui lay one of those pe
culiarly milky, half transparent peo
ples common the world over and of
value only to small, impressionable
boys. Truxton accepted it with pro
found gravity.'
And when you come back, Mr.
King, I'm going to knight you. I'd do
it now, only Aunt Loralne says you'd
m worrying about your title all the
time and might be 'stracted from your
mission. I in going to make a baron
of you. That's higher than a count
In Graustark. Vos Engo is only a
count",
Truxton started.
"I shall be overwhelmed," he said.
Then his hand went to his mouth in
the vain effort to cover the smile that
played there.
"My mother used to say that Amer
ican girls lilted titles," said the prince.
with ingenuous caudor.
"Prince Robin, may 1" he glanced
uneasily at the distant nurse "may I
ask how your Aunt Loralne is feel
Ing?"
"She acted very funny when I sent
for you. I'm worried about her."
"What did she do. your highness?1
"She rushed off to her room. 1
think, Mr. King, she was getting ready
to cry or something. You see, she's
iu trouble."
"She's Worried About her brother, of
course, and you.
"I Just wish I could tell you No,
I won't It wouldn't be fair," Bobby
said, checking himself resolutely.
"She's, awful proud of you. I'm sure
she likes you. Mr. King."
"I'm very, very glad to hear that."
Truxtou bent his kaee. "Your high
ness, as it seems I um not to see her
nnd as you seem to be the very best
friend 1 have. I should very much like
to ask a great favor of you.' Will you
take this old ring of mine and wish
it on her finger just as soon as 1 have
leTt your presence?" .
"How did you know she was com
ing In again?" In wide eyed wonder.
-"Excuse me. I shouldn't ask ques
tions. What shall I wish?" It was
the old ring that had come from
flpauti's shop. The prince promptly
hid It beneath the 'pillow.
"I'll leave thnt to you. my best of
frleuds."
"I bet it'll be a good wish, all right.
I know what to wish."
"Then, goodby and God bless you."
said Truxton. "I must be off. Your
Uncle Jack Is waiting for me np there
In the hills."
Truxton found Mr. Hobbs In a state
bordering on collapse with Colonel
Qulunox and Iladdun.
"I say, Mr. King, there's no tntore
chance of getting out of the"
"Listen. Hobbs, we're going to awlm
out," said Truxton.
"Swim! Oh, I soy! By hokey. he's
gone 'clean daffy!" Hobbs was eying
him with alarm.
"Not yet, Hobbs. Later on, perhaps.
I had occaslou to make a short tour
of. Investigation this afternoon. -Doubtless,
gentlemen, you know where the
water gate Is. back of the castle.
Hobbs, you aud I will sneak uuder
that slippery old gate like a couple
of eels. I forgot to ask if you can
awim.". . ; .
i "To be sure I can. Under tho gate!

"I sue!" cried Qulnnox. "It can be
done! No one will be watching at

officers' quarters at 1. o'clock, making
their way to the historic old gate in
the glen below the castle.
"God" be with you." said Qulnnox
fervently. The four men shook .bands,
snd King slipped into the water with
out a moment's hesitation.
"Right after me, Hobbs," he said,
and then his head went under.
A minute later he aud Hobbs were
on the 'outside of 'the gate, gasping
for brentu. Standing in water to their
necks, Qulnnox nnd Haddan passed the
equipment through the barred open
ings. There were whispered good
bys and then two invisible heads
bobbed off In the night, wading in the
swift flowing canal up to their chins.
Swimming would have been danger
ous on account of the noise.1
Holding their belongings high above
their heads, with their hearts in their
mouths. King and the Englishman felt
their way carefully along the bed of
the stream.
A hundred yards from the gate they
crawled ashore nnd made their way
up over the steep bank into the thick.
wild underbrush.
They stealthily stripped theniwlvoa
of the wet gar merits and after no end
of - trouble succeeded iu getting Into
the dry substitutes. -Then they lower
ed the wet bundles into the water and
quietly stole off through the brush to
the king's highway, a mile or two
above town.
"We take this path here for the
upper road." finally said Hobbs.' "It's
a good two hours' walk up the moun
tain to Rabot's, where we get - the
horses."
At 4 o'clock, ns the sifn reached
up with his long red fingers from be
bind the Monastery mountain.'-Trux
ton King nnd Hobbs rode away from
liabot's eottuge high in the hills, re
freshed and sound of heart. Rabot's
son rode fith them, a sturdy, loyal
lad, who had leaped Joyously at the
chance to serve his prince.
Now let us turn to John Tullls and
his quest In the hills. It goes without
snying that be found no trace of his
sister or her abductors. On the fifth
day. a large force of Dawsbergen
soldiers, led by Prince Dantan himself,
found the fagged, dlsspirited American
and his half starved men encamped In
a rocky defile in the heart of the wil
derness.
That same night a Graustark moun
taineer passed the sentinels and
brought news of the disturbance in
Edelweiss. ,
In a flash It occurred to John Tullls
that Marlanx was at the bottom of
this deviltry. The abduction of Lo
ralne was a part of his plan! Prince
Dantan' advised a speedy return to
the city. Ills men were at the com
mand of the American. Moreover, the
prince himself decided to accompany
the troops.
Before sunrise the command, now
five or. six hundred strong, was pick
lug its way down the dangerous moun
tain roads toward the main highway.
Fifteen miles . below Edelweiss they
came upon the company of soldiers
sent out to preserve order in the rail
road camps, which was, of course, a
further re-enforcenlent.
The sound of shooting In the dis
tance struck their ears. Instantly th.
entire force was alert. A dozen shots
were fired in rapid succession, then
single reports far apart. The steady
beat of horses' feet were now plain
to the attentive company. There was
a quick, incisive call to arms. A squad
siooa reaay ror action,
A smaT -group of horsemen came
thundering down
the defile. ; Three
minutes .after the
firing. waa first
heard sentries
threw 'their rifles
to their shoulders
and blocked the
approach of the
riders.
A wild, glad
shout went up
from the foremost
horseman. He bad
pulled his beast
to , its haunches
almost at the
muzzles of the
guns.
-TuHls!"' he
shouted, waving
his hat.
John Tullls ran
toward ,the excit
ed group In the
road, ne saw

"King!" exclaimed Tullls, suddenly
recognlKlnsr him. A moment later
they virv clasping hands.
"What has happened. Klnsr? Where
have yon been? We looked for you
aner your aisap'V-
Thafs ancient history," Interrupted
the other. "How soon can you- get
xnese iroops on the march? There's
notjL.niouient to be lost.
"Good glory, man, tell me what It Is!
What has happened? The prince
what of him?'' cried Tullls. grasping
King's arm In the 'clutch of n vise.
"He sends his love nnd rescinds the
order of exile," said King, smiling,
then seriously: . "Murianx has taken
the city. It was all a game, this get
ting rid of yon. The prince and tho
others are besieged In the cnstle.
Thank God, we got to you In time!
Back here a couple of miles we came
upon a small gang of robbers. We had
a bit of shooting, and, I regret to say,
no one was bagged." '
"Loralne where Is she. King?"
"Don't tremble like that, old man.
She's safe enough In the castle. Ob,
It was a fine game Marlanx bad in
his mind'."
While the troopers were , making
rendy for the march Truxton King
nnd Hobbs related their story to
eager, horrified groups of officers.
Finally the battalion, augmented by
the misguided company from the de
serted railroad chmps, moved swiftly
Into the defile, led by young Rabot.
Truxton King rode beside the brother
of the girl he loved, uttering words of
cheer and encouragement.
The Countess Ingomede has any
thing been heard from her?" asked
Tullls. He hod been thinking of her
for days and nights.
Well, nothing definite," said . King
evasively.
