SYNOPSIS.
12
The chief characters are Ethel Wil
loughby, Henry Streetman and Capt.
Larry Redmond. The minor characters
are Sir George WagstafT of the British
admiralty and Charles Brown, a New
York newspaper correspondent. Ethel,
a resident of Sir George's household,
secretly married to Streetman, a German
spy, though she did not know him as
such. Captain Redmond, her old lover,
returns to England after long absence.
From him she learns the truth about
Streetman; furthermore, that he has
betrayed her simply to learn naval se
crets. The European war breaks out.
Ethel prepares to accompany Streetman
to Brussels as a German spy in order to
get revenge and serve England. Captain
Redmond, Ethel and Charlie Brown turn
up at a Belgian inn as the German army
comes. She is Madame de Lorde. She
begins to work with a French spy. The
Germans appear at the Inn. Madame de
Lorde shows a German Becret service
medal and convinces the Invaders that she
is a German spy. Charlie Brown barely es
capes execution.
CHAPTER XVI Continued.
"Quite so!" the major agreed, "par
ticularly as I like Americans. . . .
Aud I would not wish to see any of
them come to harm," he added sig
nlQcuntly. In his rply there was more than a
hint that behind his urbanity and seem
ing good nature there lay an Immeasur
able capacity for the stern duties of a
German patriot, who would unhesitat
ingly kill any who might stand in the
path of victory.
"Again 1 get you," Mr. Brown said
'But what are you going to do with
me;
'I shall give you a pass through our
linos that will take you safely back to
Brussels."
Charlie heard him with dismay.
"But I want to go to the front," he
protested.
You have surprised a certain move
ment of the German army," the major
pointed out to him. "It is best you go
to Brussels."
Some objection had already leaped
to Charlie's lips when the door from
the street was thrown open and a uni
formed man an officer pushed across
the threshold. Advancing into the room
he exclaimed as he saluted:
"Ah, my dear major!"
Both officers clicked their heels to
gether. And as he returned the salute
Major von Brenig told the other that
he bad been expecting him.
Charlie Brown had started at the
sight of the new arrival. And now he
moved nearer to the man.
"By George, it's old Streetman!" be
cried.
"I beg your pardon who is this
man?" the arrogant Streetman (he was
now Strassman) asked the major.
Charles Brown, a Journalist from
the United States," Major von Brenig
explained.
Henry Streetman remembered
Charlie then.
"Oh, yesl I recall him," he said dis
agreeably. "What le he doing with us?"
"We found him staying here," the
major told bim. "My men nearly shot
him as an English spy."
"It seems almost a pity they didn't,"
Streetman observed, with a dark look
at the newspaper man. "He may be in
our way," he eald.
Mr. Brown thought it about time to
resent Streetman's Insolence.
"Really, didn't I meet you in Russia
some years ago he Inquired.
Streetman eyed him coolly.
"No, never!" he snapped. "I have
never been In Russia."
"Haven't you?" Charlie exclaimed
"What le He Doing With Us?"
with One show of Innocence. "Why
I've heard"
"You'd best keep what you've heard
to yourself," Streetman Interrupted
him. He stepped close to Charlie so
that the major could not hear what he
said. And he scowled at the American
like the heavy villain of some melo
drama.
But Mr. Brown paid scant heed to
the menace In the fellow's eyes. Some
how, be felt that be had established
fairly cordial relations with -the major
Streetman's euperior officer. Ahd be
did not believe that it lay within the
ipy'l power to Injure him greatly. At
the warning the fellow half whispered
to bim Charlie merely smiled.
"Tklnk so?" he taunted the threat
enlng Streetman.
"Tee! Remember now you are in
side oar lines." And drawing the ma
(or to one aide, Streetman said "lit
Jor, what shall we do with him?"
"Send bim back to Brussels," Ton
Brenig told bim.
"Perhaps we can Dud a better fate
(or bim than that . . . If he safe
here?" Henry Streetman remembered I
that the American had shown plainly
enough that afternoon at the house of
Sir George Wagstaff that he was in
sympathy with the enemies of Ger
many. And now had come an oppor
tunity to make the fellow pay for his
animosity.
"He is quite safe," von Brenig said.
And turning to the sergeant he ordered
him to remove the American to au ad
joining room.
Sergeant Schmidt at once proceeded
to carry out instructions. And seizing
one of Mr. Brown's ears in a firm grip
he starred him out of the room.
"You will remain here temporarily
as my guest," the major explained.
"But I should not advise you to at
tempt to leave."
"Listen, blondy " Mr. Brown ad
jured his evil genius for so the enthu
siastic sergeant appeared to him "con
fidentially, because I know you won't
repeat It, if the French army misses
you I'll never forgive them."
CHAPTER XVII.
A Wall and a Firing Squad.
As the door closed behind the Ber-
gennt and his prey, Streetman turned
to Major von Brenig.
"The damned Americans, we shall
have trouble with them yet," he as
serted. "I hope not. They are not a bad peo
ple," the more moderate major replied
"Oh, major have my English clothes
my civilian clothes arrived from
Berlin?" Streetman asked.
"Yes. They are upstairs with my
kit."
"Good! Then I can start tonight for
tne British trendies," the spy ex
claimed.
The older man looked at him some
what dubiously.
"You think then that your plan to
be captured by the English will suc
ceed?"
"It must succeed. This is a map of
their positions." He drew a paper from
his breast pocket and unfolded It. "The
very keystone to their entrenchments!"
he exulted. "It will be here ut trench
27" Streetman made a mark upon the
map "It will be here that I shall be
found," he said.
"Trench 27!" von Brenig repeated.
"Yes! I shall be skulking around
and be taken prisoner. Then I shall
give the English false Information
about a surprise attack that will en
able you to break through their lines
and smash them!"
"Splendid! Splendid!" Ton Brenig
cried. "By the way " he added, as an
Important detail came into his mind-
a man arrived here this afternoon
from the Wllhelmstrasse on a special
mission."
"Yes? Who is he?"
"A Captain Karl!" Major Ton Brenig
said. "You know him?"
"No! And I must meet him."
"You don't suspect"
"No, no!" Streetman assured him
At the Wllhelmstrasse few of us know
one another; still we cannot be too
careful."
"He dines with us," the major ex
plained.
And then we shall look him over,"
Streetman said with satisfactlou,
Auf wledersehen!" And Major von
Brenig went to his room, congratulat
ing himself the while upon the fact
that he had so resourceful an assistant
in that able young officer from the Wll
helmstrasse.
Henry Streetman lighted a cigarette,
tossing the still blazing match into the
fireplace. And he had not waited long
before Henri Chrlstophe appeared.
"Major von Brenig wishes to dine at
once," the spy told him. "How soon
can you be ready?"
"In fifteen minutes, m'sleu."
"Good! There will be three of us
Major von Brenig, myself and Captain
Karl."
Yes, m'sleu." Henri had already
turned to hurry back to the kitchen
when a bright blaze in the fireplace
met his astonished eyes. It was en
tirely too warm an afternoon for a fire.
Only a madman would have built one.
Why, what is that?" he exclaimed.
"I lit a cigarette," Streetman said,
"I threw my match there." And to one
of the soldiers be added, "Put It out
at once!
The man Otto hurried to the fire
place. "Yes, yes, m'sleu! It le nothing!
Only some tree branches It can do no
barm," the innkeeper protested.
In the meantime Otto had extin
guished th blaze. He bad crawled
bodily Inside the great opening of the
fireplace, to make sure that be did bis
work thoroughly. And now be emerged,
sooty but triumphant, hearing some
contrivance la his arms.
"Here is a telephone!" be announced
proudly.
"What!" Streetman exclaimed. And
be hastened to examine the find. "Oh,
bol What's this?" be asked.
Henri Chrlstophe was no less sur
prised than the others. He took the in
strument from Otto and turned It over
curiously.
"Why, m'sleu it is a telephone," be
said with an air of the utmost mystifi
cation. "I know, I know but what Is It do
ing there?" Streetmsn asked Imperi
ously. "I do not know, m'sleu," Chrlstophe
stammered. In a Sash be saw that
things looked very black for himself.
"Why did you bide It J" Already
Streetman bad found him guilty.
"I did not bide it, m'sleu!"
An Inspiration seized Streetman
then. And be took the telephone Into
bis ewn bands.
"Who are you?" he asked In French,
speaking directly Into the transmitter,
The fellow received an Immediate
reply. Aud be said to his men in the
next breath, "It was a Frenchman whs
spoke! That telephone leads to the
"IT
French. It Is the work of a spy." Anil
then Streetman ordered Otto's comrade
Hans to ask Major von Brenig to re
turn.
roor Henri Chrlstophe forgot all
about his simple menu. He stood there,
crestfallen. The whole affair was too
much for his befogged brain.
You were warned against any at
tempt to communicate with the en
emy," Streetman sai
I never saw that telephone before,"
Chrlstophe declared.
"Don't lie to me! You put It there!"
"I swear to you " The innkeeper
held both his hands aloft as he pro
claimed his innocence. lint his pro
testations had no effect upon the lu-
dignant Streetman. The man seemed
absolutely relentless, inhuman.
"You are either u French spy or har
boring a spy under your roof," he told
Chrlstophe. "It Is an act of enmity to
us. You must pay the penalty at once."
"On my honor I have done nothing
absolutely nothing!" Henri Chrlstophe
cried. Even In that moment his thoughts
were upon his daughter Jeanne rather
than upon himself. He was afraid
for her.
'Our proclamations have . told yon
what to expect," Streetman snarled,
'It will he a good warning to the oth
ers, lie atiuou grimly.
The Belgian Innkeeper stared at him
as if in a trance.
Before God, I am Innocent!" he as
serted.
The callous Streetman paid not the
slightest need to uis denials. In a most
brisk and businesslike manner he com
manded the corporal to call In the
guard and make ready a tiring squad
"agninst the wall outside," he said.
Then little Jeanne Chrlstophe opened
one of the doors timidly. Some errand
had necessitated her entering the room,
And when she saw her father's ashen
face it needed little Intuition to tell bet
that there was some tragedy impend
ing. With a low cry she sprung to her
father's side.
"My father my father what Is it?"
she asked him.
"h Is a spy," Streetman said con
temptuously.
"Nou, lion, m'sleu!" she cried.
"Wait! . . . Come here!" he or
dered her roughly. And Henri Chrls
tophe whispered to her to obey. "You
have seen that telephone before?"
Streetman Inquired. Already the cor
poral unci returned with four men,
bearing rifles.
"No, no! Never in all my life!" the
girl walled.
"Your father hid it there," he In
sisted. 4
"Nou, non, m'sleu!" she said with all
the vehemence she could muster.
"Enough of talking!" Streetman said
with a cruel glance at her white face,
"Take him out!" he ordered the cor
poral,
I1 or one brief moment father and
daughter clasped each other in a last
embrace.
It is the end, my little Jeanne
Good-by! Pray for me!" Henri Chrls
tophe said brokenly. And in that In
stant a new dignity came to hiin a
dignity such as must have clothed the
ancient martyrs, or that later tragic
figure, for whom his own daughter was
named Jeanne d'Arc when the su
prome summons overtook them. "It is
all over, ma petite," he repeated. And
then he drew himself up to his fullest
height and look d at his unyielding
Judge unflinchingly. "I am Innocent
m'sleu!" he said. , . .
Those were the last words that Henr
Chrlstophe spoke.
Henry Streetman made a gesture of
Impatience. The scene bored him
Jeanne Chrlstophe burst Into a wild
torrent of words. Alternately she ad
dressed Streetman and her father.
No, no, no!" she shrieked, as if she
could not have that frightful thing-
that monstrosity happen. "Oh, m'sleu
For the love of God! . . . My fa
ther ... I pray you. . . . No,
not He Is my father. ... I love
thee, I love thee!" she sobbed. ,
"Oh, m'sleu I beg you "
"Take bliu out!" That was Street-
man's only auswer.
Little Jeanne would not leave her fa
ther's side. As they dragged Hour
Chrlstophe from the room she still
clung to him. And still she shrieked:
"tor the love of God! No, no! Oh,
papa, oh, papa! I love thee. . .
Major von Brenig looked inquiringly
at his colleague from the Wllhelui
strasse.
"You wanted me, captain?" be asked
"The proprietor here Is a spy," Street-
man said.
"Chrlstophe a spy? Are you sure?
-Aosoiureiy surer' streetman re
piled. "This telephone lends to the
French. And I have scttlod the affair,
Even as he spoke a scream from out
side reached their cars a woman'
scream. And immediately there fol
lowed the sound of a volley.
Major von Breulg turned hie head
and listened.
"Ah, mon perc!" It was Jeanne
Chrlstophe sobbing.
Already she had flung herself upon
her father's riddled body.
Major von Breulg cast a reproving
glance at bis naughty fellow officer.
"Good God eo soon? Without In
vestlgatlon?" he exclaimed. "What
he were innocent?"
But Streetnmn bud no misgivings.
"Ah! It will be a lesson to these
others," he said carelessly.
In the adjoining room Charlie Brown
and the German sergeant bad beard
those shots. And now they burst upon
the two officers in great excltemeut
"What happened? Is It the Fre-ach7"
Charlie called.
- ii is nnisnea we aemnea spy
Streetman rejoined.
"What's happened?" Charlie asked
again.
-A matter of war," the major told

m briefly "that is not on my con
science." He was far from approving
of Streetman's hasty action.
"The execution of a spy!" Streetman
interposed. Aud the words were hard-
out of his mouth before several pri-
ates squeezed through the entrance to
I lie kecperlcss inn. There were two
files; tuid between them they bore a
tretcher, upon which there lay sonie-
ling coveted with a sheet. A little
distance behind the gruesome proces
sion Jeanne Chrlstophe followed sob
bing.
One glance told Charlie Brown what
rested upon that stretcher that it was
the body of someone who but a few
moments before had stood there in the
uniting sunlight of the summer after
noon and faced the firing squad. Out
f respect he removed his hat. He
id not know who the unfortunate
might have been. Hut nevertheless he
as profoundly shocked.
"l'oor devil, I'ui sorry for bim
whoever he was!" he said.
Major von Brenig drew a paper
from a pocket of his coat.
'Here is your pass," ho told the
American as lie hauded hiin the doeu-
ncnt. "We have decided Unit you shall
o to Brussels," he added. The major
appeared to bo in something of a
"Against the Wall Outside," He Said,
hurry to speed the parting guest. He
was, as a matter of fact, disturbed that
the unfortunate execution had taken
place under the very nose of a New
York newspaper man. And now he
wished to hasten Mr. Brown upon his
way before he had further opportunity
to pry into the detail of the tragedy,
But as I told you " Charlie Brown
begun, taking the puss from the officer,
"us I told you, I want to"
"It is not a matter for argument,"
Major von Brenig said sillily,
"And you had best start at ones,"
Streetman added.
Charlie Brown saw that his aspira
tions to proceed back of the German
lines were doomed. And now he ac
cepted the situation as cheerfully as he
could.
