He was surprised, but not jyed, when Yetive told him certain Itiona of the story In regard to Mar-' ; and, by no means averse to see the old man relegated to the back- lund, heartily Indorsed the step talc- y his wife.

The handsome Axphaln lan came with relief and dismay strug gling for mastery in his face. "Your highness." he said after the greetings, "i Bm come to ,nform that Graustark has one prince less to account for. Axphaln has found her fugitive." "When?" cried the princess and Bev erly In one voice an.l with astonishing eagerness, not unmixed with dismay. "Three days ago." was the reply. "Oh," came lu deep relief from Bev erly as she sank back Into her chair. The same fear had lodged lu the hearts of the two fair oonsplrators-that they bad freed Bal.los ou!." to have him fail Into the bauds of bis deadliest foes. "I have a message by courier from my uncle lu Axphaln," said Mizrox. "He says that Frederic was killed near Labbot liy soldiers, after making a gal lant fight, on last Sunday night The Princess Volga Is rejoicing and has amply rewarded his slayers. Poor Frederic! He knew but "little happl ness In this life." There was a full minute of reflection before any of his hearers expressed the thought that had framed Itself In very mind. "Well, since Dantau and Frederic are accounted for, Baldos Is absolutely obliged to be Chrlstolml," said Anguish resignedly. "He's Just Baklos," observed Bever ly, Bnufflng out the faint hope that had lingered so long. Then she said to her self: "And I don't care, either. I only wish he were back here again. I'd be a good deal nicer to him." Messengers flew back and forth, car rying orders from the castle to various quarters. The miulsters were called to meet at 12 o'clock. Underneath all the bustle there was a tremendous Im pulse of American cunning, energy and resourcefulness. Every one caught the fever. Reserved old diplomats were overwhelmed by their own enthusiasm. Custom bound soldiers forgot the he reditary caution and fell Into the way of the new leaders without a murmur. The city was wild with excitement, ror all believed that the war was upon them. There was but one shallow overhanging the glorious optimism of Graustark the ugly, menacing attitude of Axphaln. Even tbe Duke of Mixrox could give no assurance that bis coun try would remain neutral. Colonel Quinnox came to the castle In haste and perturbation. It was he who propounded the question that Yetive and Beverly were expecting, "Where Is Baldos?" Of course the flight of the suspected guard was soon a matter of certainty. A single Im ploring glance from the princess, meant for the faithful Quinnox alone, told him as plainly as words could have said that she had given the man his freedom. And Quinnox would have died a thousand times to protect the secret of his sovereign, for had not twenty generations of Qulnnoxes serv ed the rulers of Graustark with un llinching loyalty? Baron Dangloss may have suspected the trick, but he did not so much as blink when the princess instructed him to hunt high and low for the fugitive. Marlaux came at 11. I'nder the de fiant calmness of his bearing there was lurking a mighty fear. His brain was scourged by thoughts of impending dis grace. The princess had plainly threat ened bis degradation. After all these years he was to tremble with shame aud humiliation; be wis to cringe where he had always boasted of domi neering power. And besides all this Marlanx had a bullet wound in his left shoulder! The world could not have known, for he knew bow to conceal pain. He approached the slender, imperi ous Judge In the council chamber with a defiant leer on his face. If he went down into the depths he would drag with him the fairest treasure be bad coveted In all his years of lust and desire. "A word with you," he said In an aside to Beverly ns she came from the council chamber. In which she felt she should not sit. She stopped and faced him. Instinctively she looked to see if he bore evidence of a wound. Bhe was positive ftat her bullet bad struck him the night before and that Marlanx was the man with the cloak. "Well?" she said coldly. He read her thoughts and smiled, even as his shoul der burned with pain. "I will give you Uie chance to save yourself. I love you. I warn. . must have you for my own." he was saying. . Stop, sir! It may be your experi ence In life that women kneel to you when you command. It may be your habit to win what you set about to win But vui have a novel way of pre senting your deVolrs. I must say. Is this the way In which you won the five unfortunates whom you want uie to succeed? Did you scare them Into submission V "No no! I cared nothing for them. You are the only one I ever lovcd"- "Benlly. Count Marlanx. you are most amusing." she Interrupted, with a laugh that stung him to the quick.

"If you molest me further I shall call Mr. Lorry. Let me passP "Just glance at this paper, my beau ty. It goes before tbe eyes of the coun cil unless you" He paused signifi cantly. Beverly took the document and with dilated eyes read the revolting charges against her honor. Her checks grew white w 1th anger, then flushed a deep crlmsou. "You fiend r she cried, glaring at him so fiercely that he Instinctively shrani back, the vicious grin dying in his face. "I'll show you how much I fear you. I shall give this revolting thing to the princess. She may read It to the cabi net, for all I care. No one will believe you. They'll kill you for this!" She turned aud flew Into the presence of the princess and her ministers. Speeding to the side of Yetive, she thrust the paper into her hands. Sur prise and expectancy filled the eyes of all assembled. "Count Marlaux oiHclaliy charges me with with read It, your highness P she cried distractedly. Yetive read It, pale faced end cold. A determlued gleam appeared In her eyes as slip passed the document to her 'iiLsliaml. "Alioile." Lorry said to an attendant, fter a brief glance at Its revolting con :i; .

Ho had not expected Beverly to take this appalling step. The girl, tears In her eyes, rush ed to a wiudow, hiding her face from the wondering ministers. Her courage suddenly failed her. If the charges were read aloud before these men It seemed to her that she never could lift her eyes again. A mighty louging for Washington, her father and the big Calhoun boys rushed to her heart as she stood there and awaited the crash. But Lorry was a true nobleman. "Gentlemen," he said quietly, "Count Marlanx has seen fit to charge Miss Calhoun with complicity In the flight of Baldos. I will not read the charges to you. They are unworthy of one wtio has held the highest position In the army of Graustark. ne has" "Read this, my husband, before you proceed further," said Yetive, thrusting Into his hand a line slie had written with feverish haste. Lorry smiled gravely before he rend aloud the brief edict which removed General Marlaux from the command of the army of Graustark. "Is this Justice?" protested Marlaux angrily. "Will you uot give me a bear ing? I beseech" "Silence!" commanded the princess. "What manner of hearing did you ex pect to give Miss Calhoun? It Is enough, sir. There shall be no cowards tn my army." "Coward?" be faltered. "Have I not proved my courage on the field of bat tle? Am I to be called a" "Bravery should not end when the soldier quits the Held of battle. You have had a bearing. Count Marlanx. I beard the truth about you last night." "From Miss Calhoun?" sneered be viciously. "I must be content to ac cept this dismissal, your highness. There Is no hone for me. Some day you may pray God to forgive you for the wrong you have done your most loyal servant. There Is no appeal from your decision, but as a subject of Grau stark I insist that Miss Calhoun shall be punished for aiding In the escape of this spy and traitor. He Is gone, and it was she who led him through the castle "Vou fiend I" the cried. to the outer world. She cannot deny tills, gentlemen. I defy her to say she did not accompany Baldos through the secret passage last night." "It will do no harm to set herself right by denying this accusation," sug g.vted Count Halfont solemnly. Every man in the cabiuet aud army bad bated Marlanx for years, nis degradation was not displeasing to them. They would ask no questions. But Beverly Calhoun stood staring ,,t f tti window, out upon the castle park and Its gay sunshine. She did not answer, for she aid not near tne pre mier's words. Her brain was whirling madly with other thoughts. She was trying to believe her eyes. "The spy Is gone,", cried Marlanx, see ing a faint chance to redeem himself at her expense. "She cannot face my charge. Where Is your friend" Miss Calhoun r Beverly faced them with a strange, subdued calmness in her face.
