The newly made Princess of Schom- burg Lithow and her fiance, Santos, reached Berlin safely. They flew In the H awk to Irkutsk In Aslatlo Russia and from th ere continued th eir Jour ney on the quick aerollne to the Ger man capital. They sen t th e aerodro- mone back to Clryne. The Roslny mansion was ready for them. R osltta's first aotlon was to send word to the Count von W erden steln th a t she w anted to see him. W hen the chancellor came, R osltta received him alone. It was neceszary for her to explain the situation. The Count Roslny was dead. He had been on board the Tzar th a t Napoleon had sunk. This freed R osltta, but ns a princess she could not m arry a plain citizen, so she asked the count to make Mr. Duprel a titled nobleman. Roeltta told all she thought necessary, and they talked for a long time. Santos was told the plans w ithout the slightest idea th a t it was a tre mendous, far-reaching plot designed to destroy all the achievem ents of the peace comm ittee. He could see noth ing but R osltta, he could think of noth ing but th eir approaching m arriage. The purpose the chancellor and Ro- sitta had In mind, was to m anufacture and equip a num ber of aerodrom onss. If they pursued this desire, they would have. Inside of a year, the power to m aster th e situation and tak e the lead In political affairs. Suem sg now belonged to R osltta and the oirynlth deposit there was very rich. The Count von W erdensteln placed an unlim ited account In the bank to her credit, so th a t she and Santos could begin w ork a t once. The people of Kiss-Cell w ere sur prised a t th e unusual activities dis played by the strange men Imported. Santos Duprel w as very busy. He had been Informed th a t a fter the suc cessful completion of the first aero- drom one he would have th e title of "count” conferred upon him, and th a t this would rem ove all the b arriers be tw een R osltta and him. T heir m ar riage would take place the day of the trial flight. This fired hls ambition, and he worked hard and long. He was allowed to plan as he wished, and one day laid hls blue prints before the Count von W erdensteln. He showed him th a t a larger and more powerful aerodrom one than Napoleon’s would be necessary; otherw ise the design and m ake would be unchanged. This Im provem ent In size would give more motive power, and th u s make It supe rio r to th e Eagle. "And w hat Is your motive power? I don’t see any details In your plan th a t would explain the wonderful power th a t your devils of the a ir pos sess.” Santos cast a questioning glance at Rosltta. She nodded acquiescence, and he began: "The power, of course, Is electricity. I will try to explain things as simply as they are. Tho flight of the aero dromone Is based on the flight of a bird—not any bird, but the king of the air, the eagle. Size of body, wings, and balance are all considered. A fter a long search and study, Napoleon Ed ison found th a t no muscle power oould have the endurance of the eagle and a few o th er birds th at are able to cover rem arkably long distances In a very , , _ . . . : . . . , . . , Napoleon placed the long missive on L os A ngeles.— D e cla rin g a d ra s tic , v T . , , . . .. . . . ,, th e desk and looked thoughtfully at ele ctio n o rd in a n c e p a sse d by th e c ity Aitnki th en w lth o u t a word tu rn # d council " a n u n w a rra n te d I n te r f e r e n c e ' the electro-stylograph. w ith th e p e rso n a l rig h ts of c itiz e n s,” ; A few m inutes later he was talking M ayor R ose p ro m p tly v e to e d th e to hi* m aster m echanic, old Jerom s mR?*ure' . ..

"N ot he, but young Sullivan, who w ent with th e m .” "Then he does not know w hers San u ft ^ are moved by the force of the eleo- trlcity; th a t Is, they coma together un til the force of the opposite m agnetic power forces them apart, and the repe tition of thla operation 1* called flig h t" “T h at certainly sounds sim ple,” m u r m ured th e chancellor. “Now tak e the aerodrom one,’’ con tinued Santos. “Through m echanical lnvantlona, and clrynlth, we have Im proved the bird's m ethod of flight. The Im provem ent Is In th e storing away of unused m agnetism . T hs m ore quickly we fly, the m ore m agnetism Is gath ered by the m achine.” Santos pointed to th s front part of the machine on th# blueprint, calling the chancellor’s a t tention to the contrivance th a t gave the m achine the appearance of an eagle. It was a large brass ball, cov ered w ith a clrynlth cap. Then ha pointed to a broad brass bar th a t ex tended over the en tire top of the m a chine; th a t bar was like a round brush, and Its duty was to g ath er In every little spark of electricity, and store It In the brass collector. W hen the Insulation was broken, a lightning flash was sen t out, directed a t the will of the a ir man. So long as the m a chine was In motion th ere was always plenty of electricity in tho collector, ready to be sent out to cause doetruo tlon to anything. "W onderful!” sighed tho c o u n t “I know w hat those sparks mean, I have seen them In action." "T he sim ple m achinery th a t Is built Into every aerodrom one Is to control the flight and to s ta rt the wings. On account of the extrem e sim plicity of the m echanism and the trem endous stren g th of oirynlth, th e aerodrom one is, practically speaking, ln d e stru o tlble.” “B ut how can one m achine capture the other, or even fight the other, un der these conditions?" asked the count anxiously. "T here a re two ways In which a m a chine may gain victory over the other. One is to disable the brain of the m a chine, th a t Is, the man behind th# wheel.” "How can th a t be done?” asked th* count eagerly. “Clrynlth, as you know, Is harder than anything except the diamond, so I believe If hard steel bullets were m ade with diamond points they would p en etrate the com paratively thin shell of clrynlth th a t defends th e airm an. However, this is only a theory. Ex perim ents m ust show the advisability of th eir m anufacture.” "W hat Is th# o th er w ay?” "T h at Is a certain method, and Is based on the laws of electricity th a t seem to govern aerial navigation." "W hat is it?" asked the couut, impa tiently, as Santos hesitated and looked a t Rosltta. “It Is th e sam e as when a boy takes a piece of am ber o r any other sub stan ce th a t can be m agnetized and lifts up a paper scrap. The quicker airm an has to m aneuver so as to alight on top of the hostile m achine. The low er m achine then sticks to the up per, like the paper to the am ber, only with such g reat force th a t It cannot be released until the cu rren t Is stopped and the necessary Insulation betw een the opposing forces is obtained.” "B ut th e wings of the low er m achine m ight s trik e the upper.” rem arked the count. "It looks th a t way,” answ ered San tos wearily. It brought back the hap py days In the service of Napoleon, and hls h e a rt was heavy. “But, as I have m entioned, different law s prevail In th e air, totally different from th# laws th a t govern the land or w ater. The atm ospherical electricity has qualities th a t cannot be Judged by our present knowledge. It has to be ex perim ented with. O ur trials on the Island of C lryne showed us th at the aerodrom ones do not Injure each o th er; they m ight stick together, or be burled apart, but they are never dam aged.” "Then you think, Mr. Duprel, th a t you will be able to capture E dison’« force?” The little man cast an appealing glance tow ard R osltta; she looked him straig h t In the eyes and encouraged him. He said bravely: "Mr. Edison Is a very form idable en emy, but our Improved m achines will give us th e advantage, and besides, we will have a larg er fleet.” The count was satisfied and the work under Santos' direction w ent on. It took m onths before the factory was In perfect shape, and th e various parts w ere m anufactured for th e ae ro d ro mones. They often wondered th a t Napoleon had not appeared to Interfere with th eir work. (T O B E C O N T IN U E D .)
