It wm the note from Karon to Baldos, which Beverly bad forgotten In the excitement of the encounter. "Count Murium, iflve mc that pa perl" demanded Beverly breuthlessly. "la It a love letter? Perhaps It la Intended for me. At any rate, your highness, It la safe aftuliist my heart for the time When we reach the caiitle I ahall lie happy to restore It It la safer with me.

"No, I have not, mid I ahall not go until I see you oliey the command of her highness. She haa asked you for that piece of pner," snld Baldos, standing Hiiuarely In front of Marlanx.

I ahall nut forget It. fool! Mere la the precious note, your highness, with my condolenrea to the writer. Marlanx pnaaed the note to her and then looked triumphantly at the guard. "I dare say you have done all yon ran, air. Io you wlali to add anything more?" "What -n n one do when dealing with Ma superior and ItmM lilin a despicable coward?" auld Bnldoa, with cool Irony. "You are reputed to lie a brave boI dler. I know that to be falae or I would aak you to draw the sword you carry and" He waa drawing hla word aa he apoke. "Iialdoa !" Implored Beverly. Her evident concern Infuriated Marlanx. In hla heart be knew Iialdoa to tie a man of siierlor birth and a foemao not to be deaplaed from hla own ata tlon. Carried away by paaalon, he Unified lila aword from Ha aheath. "You hnv drawn on me, air," he marled. "I muat defend myaeir BKitlUHt even audi aa you. You will And that I am uo coward. Time la hort for your gallant lover, madam." Before ahe could utter a wonl of pro teat the hlndee had climbed, and they were hungry for blood. It waa dark In the shadows of the trees, and the trio were quite alone with their tragedy. Bho heard Iluldoa laugh recklessly In ruapoiiae to Marlani'a cry of: "Uh, the Hluinie of llgbtlng with aueh carrion aa you!" "Don't Jest at a time like thla, count," anld the guard aoftly.

"You will always find me ready to fight and to die for her," aald Baldos gravely. "Do you think you can re member that. Count Marlanx?" "I have an excellent memory," aaJd the count ateadlly. With a graceful aahite to Beverly, Baldoa turned and walked away lu the darkneaa. "A perfect gentleman, Mlaa Calhoun, but a wretched aoldler," aald Marlanx grimly. "He la a hero," ahe aald quietly, great calmnea coming over her. "Do you mean It when you aay you are nof going to have blm punished? II did only what a man abould do, and I glory In hla folly." "I may aa well tell you point blank that you alone can aave blm. He doea not deserve leniency. It la In my pow er and It la my province to have blm utterly destroyed not only for thla nlght'a work, but for other and better reasons. I have positive proof that be la a apy. He knows I bave thla proof. That la why he would have killed me Just now. It la for you to aay whether be ahall uieet the fate of apy or go unscathed. You bave but to exchange promlsea with me, and the estimable guardsman goea free-but he goes from Edelweiss forever. Todny ho met the enemy's scouts In the hills, aa you know quite well. Messagea were ex changed secretly, which you do not know, of course. Before another day la gone I expect to see the results of bis treachery. There may be maulfea tatlona tonight. You do nut believe Die, but wait and see If I am not right He Is one of Gabriel's cleverest aplea." "I do not believe It You ahall not accuse blm of such tilings," ahe cried. "Besides, If he la a apy why should you shield blm for my sake? Don't you owe It to Graustark to expoao" "Here la the princess," aald be se renely. "Your highness," addressing Yetlve, "Mlaa Calhoun haa a note which she refuses to let any one read but you. Now, my dear young lady, you may give It directly Into the banda of her highness." Beverly gave him a look of acorn, but without a aecoud'B hesitation placed the missive lu Yetlve'a band. The Iron fount's Jnw i!ropicd, and he moistened Ids lips w ith his tongue two or three times. Something told blm that a valuable chance had gone. "I shall lie only too happy to have your highness read the result of my first lesson lu the Graustiirk language," she said, smiling gayly upon the count. Two men In uniform came rushing up to the party manifestly excited. Sa luting the general, both begun to apeak at once. "One nt a time." commanded the count. "What Is It?" Oilier otllcers of the guard and a few iio'deinen from the castle came up, out of breath. "We have discerned signal tires lu the bills, your excellency." said one of the men from the fort "There is it clrele of fires, ami they mean some thing Important. Tor half an hour th -y bave been burning near the monastery; alsn In the valley below ami on the mountains to the south." There was an Instant of deathly si lence, as If I he hearers tr,x a ite.l a crash, Marlanx looked steadily at Beverly' fine, ami she saw the triumphant, lie cuslni; gleam In Ills eyes Helplessly she stared Into the crowd of faces.

Apart from the existence of a strotig, healthy prejudice In the guard's favor, what the old general be lieved and wbut he could prove were two distinct propositions. He was crafty enough, however, to take advan tage of a condition unknown to Bev erly Calhoun, the Innocent cause of all bis bitterness toward Baldoa. As he bustened from the council chamber his eyes swept the crowd of eager, excited women In the grand ball. Krom among inem ne and advanced t.pon her without regard for time and consequence.

"Thla Is the work of your champion," he aald In tone that did not reach ears other than ber own. I prophesied It, ; you must remember. Are you satisfied now that you have been deceived In klm?" "I have Implicit confidence In him. I uppose you have ordered hla arrest?" she asked, with quiet scorn. "He la under survelllnnce, at my sug gestion. For your anke, and yours ' . alone. I am giving him a chance He la vour nroieite. xou are resiiouoium iui bis conduct. To accuse him would be to place you In an embarraBslng posi tion. There la a sickening rumor In court circles that you have more than u merely kind and friendly Interest In the rascal. If I believed that, Miss Cal houn, I fear my heart could not be kind to him, but I know It la not true. You have a loftier love to give. He Is a clever scoundrel, and there la no tell ing how much harm he haa already done to Graustark. Hla every move Is to be watched and reported to me. It will be Impossible for him to escape. To save blm from the vengeance of the army I am permitting him to remain In your service, ostensibly at leiist. His hours of duty have la-en changed, how ever. Henceforth he Is in the night guard, from midnight till dawn. I am telling you this. Miss Calhoun, because I want you to know that In spite of nil the Indignity I have suffered you are more to me than any other being In the world, more to me even than my loyal ty to Graustark. Do me the honor and Justice to remember this. I have Buf fered much for you. I am a rough, hardened aoldler, and you bave mis construed my devotion. Forgive the harsh words my passion tuny bave In spired. Farewell! I must off to undo the damage we all lay at the door of the man you and I are protecting." He was too wise to give ber the chance to reply. A moment later he waa mounted and off for the eastern gates, there to direct the movements of Colonel Braze ami his scouts. Beverly flew at once to Yetlve with her plea for llaldos. She was confronted by a rather solier faced aoverelgu. The news of the hour xvas not comforting to the princess mid her ministers. "You don't believe he Is a spy?" cried Beverly, stopping Just Inside the door, presuming Hellishly that Baldos alone was the cause for worry. She resolved to tell Yetlve of the conflict In tho park. "Dear me. Beverly, I nm not think ing of him. We've illseuss.il him joint ly and severally ninl every other way. Hid he has bis-u settled for tin- time being. You lire the only one who Is thinking of blm, my dear child. We have weightier tilings to annoy us."

Twice from their darkened corner near the pillar they saw BaldoB as he paceu steadily past the castle on patrol, with Huddan at his side. Dreamily the watchers In the cool balcony looked down upon the somber pnrk and Its occasional guardsman. Neither waa In the mood to talk. As they rose at last to go to their rooms something whizzed through the air and dropped with a slight thud In the renter of the balcony. The two voting women started back In alarm. A faint light from Beverly's w indow filtered across the stone floor. "Don't touch It. Beverly!" cried the princess as the girl started forward with an eager exclamation. But Ber erly had been thinking of the very ob ject that now quivered liefore her in the dull light, saucy, aggressive and Jaunty ns It was tho night when ahe saw it for the first time. A long, slim red feather bobbed to and fro as If saluting her with soldierly fidelity. Its base xvas an orange. Into which It had ls-eu stuck by the hand that tossed It from below. Beverly grasped It with more ecstasy than wis dom and then rushed to the stone rail ing. Yetlve looking on In amazement. Diligently she searched the ground lie low for 'he man who had sent the red message, but he was nowhere in sight. Then came the sudden realization that she was revealing n most uumaldeuly eagerness, to lilin as well as to the prim-ess, for she did not doubt that he was watching from the shadows be low. She withdrew from the rail In confusion and fled to her bedchamber, followed by ber curious companion. There were explanations noue of .A:'aFil 1 f : 1 V-1, U "i.oi'f foiieh ft, lil-irli" which Sinn -I; sietiker or listener as log ' leal and there were giggles xvhich complete!)- simplified the situation. Beverly thrust the slim iisl feather Into ber hair and struck an attitude that would have set Baldos wild with Joy If he could have seen It. The next day. when she appeared in the park, the feather sbi.xl up defiantly from the baud of b. r sailor bat. though woman ly perversetiess Impelled her to Ignore Baldos when he passed heron his way to mess. The Duke of Mlzrox came into the city hours after the time set for his ar rival. It was quite dark when the es cort sent by Colonel t,iulmiox drew up at the castle gales with the visitor. The duke and his party had been rob bed by brigands in the broad daylight and at a point not more than live miles from F.deiweiss! .nd thus the mystery of the signal fires was explained. Count Marlanx did not soon forget the trium phant look lie received from Beverly Calhoun when the duke's misfortunes were nt, mumpsd. shameless as it may s.s-m. sin- rejoiced exceedingly over the Sets of the robbers.

"We have a new mnn In the castle guard, and tbcre Is a mystery attached to him. Would you mind looking at him nud telling us If he Is what Fred eric might be In his manhood?" Lorry put the question, and every one pres- est drew a deep ta-eath of Interest, Mlzrox readily conseuted, and Bal dos, Intercepted on his rounds, was led unsuspecting Into an outer chamber. The duke, accompanied by Lorry and llarou Daugloss, eutered the room, They were gone from the assemblage but a few minutes, returning with smiles of uucertalnty on their faces. "It Is Impossible, your highness, for mc to say whether or not It Is Fred eric," said the duke frankly. "He is what I imagine the pretender might be at his age, but It would be sheer lollv for me to apeculute. I do not know the man." Beverly squeezed the Countess Dog- mar's arm convulsively "Hurrah!" she whispered In great re lief. Dagmar looked at her lu aston ishment. She could not fathom the whimsical American. "They have been keeping an Inces sunt watch over the home of Frederic cousin. He is to marry ber when the time Is nronltlous." volunteered the young duke. "She Is the most beau tlful girl In Axpbnln. and the family Is one of the wealthiest. Her parents bitterly oppose the match. They were to have been secretly married some months ago. and there Is a rumor to the effirt that they did succeed evading the vigilance of her people. "You mean that they may be mar ried?" asked Yetlve, casting a quick glance at Beverly.

"I, too, have wen her," said Y'etlve, more gravely than she thought. "The report of their betrothal Is true, then?" "Tils sudden overthrow prevented the nuptials which were to have take place In a mouth had not Gabriel re turned.
