"I haven't een many Jokes late ly." mnrmnred Margaret. ' ; "Naturally it's a bigger Joke to ;me than to yon, but I'm aure you'll ,iee a humorous side to It , . "Out ot a welter ot treachery, the (treachery of the Kald and Ralaul to IBIccoll, and ot him to them; the treachery ot the Mallgnls to the " Kald. and the treachery of Rlccoll to France, cornea the downfall of ithe lot ot them, and the removal lot the obstacle to France'a civiliz ing march. . . "From their efforts at war, comes peace final peace, In this desert that shall blossom like a rose.' "The treachery of the Mallgnls! Why, what do" asked Margaret. "Yes, my dear, black base treaoh lary. Shall I tell you?" "Tell me everything, please. The more 1 know, the more I can per haps help, and the freer I shall be to do so." "Well, the organization of which II am the head, In this part of the : world, discovered that the Kald waa dallying with Germany. Or put It the other way about. It yon 'like. Anyhow, there were over tores, proposals and an understand tag. "It was arranged that one of Germany's best men should come and see the Kald, come to a definite agreement make a treaty with him, in fact "The Kald wa: to get money, men and munitions, on the understand ing that he used the men and muni tions, and at any rate part of the money, to make war any old war that should 'trouble the waters, and especially war that would make blm Sultan of Morocco, worry and embarrass France, and generally, as 1 said trouble the waters.' "Then of course, Germany was going to fish In the troubled waters Ssh for vast mineral concessions, among other things, as soon as the Kald was Sultan of Morocco, or Indeed, as soon as he was strong, and France and Spain were weak, In Morocco. "And so Germany was sending this good man, one of their beat, a real stormy petrel, with the high' est courage, the greatest ability and the widest experience. Secret service, of course, with no overt backing, countenance, or support from home. If he sucoecded, so much the better tor Germany and himself. It he failed and were caught that was that and the end ot 'Herr Schlacht known to his brother officers as Carl Ton Mlt tengen. "Well, as soon as we knew all this. It became my business to put a spoke In bis wheel and I con ceived the bright Idea ot doing not only that but being the new wheel myself, If you Understand me. One line day It would be a case of 'Herr Scblaoht Is dead, long live Kerr Schlachtl' ."I got In touch very gentle touch, Just like velvet with the SoBor Pe dro Mallgnl- who was acting for the Kald li Tangier and In short the SeSor Pedro Mallgnl sold the Ksld and the German agent and the whole German connection, to me. He also agreed with me that the Kald had had his day, and that It was time for so wise a man as Beflor Pedro Mallgnl to put bis money on another horse rat from the sinking ship. "For I was able to prove to him that France was going to sink the hip." "Did my husband know anything of this?" Interrupted Margaret "Yon want the truth, my dear?" "Of course, the absolute truth." "He was present at my final In terview with his father, Jules Ma llgnt was Introduced to me by Pedro Mallgnl as his partner and agent He was witness to our agreement and be helped me In my plans for intercepting poor von Mlttongen. "He knows, then," said Margaret, "that you are a French officer, and in the French secret service? He knows you are not Herr Schlachtl" "He knows I am a Trench agent" replied Colonel Le Sage. "He knows that Herr Schlacht Is dead and SALEM BUSINESS MAN DEMANDS NEW TRIAL SALEM, March 33, (AP) A new trial has been demanded for Gbarlea Archerd by his attorney, O. F. Preuss of Grants Pass. Acherd was found guilty of appropriating wheat for his own use. but counsel for the defense claims three ot the Jurors now ob- WRIGLEY'S NOW EVEN BETTER Christopher Wren -BEAU CESTfJ burled. It was be who wss able to procure for me a mounted Ger man photograph from the mount of which 1 was able to remove the photograph and substitute my own above the name and address ot the German photographer." "What happened to the real Herr Schlacht, I mean?" asked Mar garet "I killed him." Margaret Involuntarily drew away. Oh, I didn't murder him In cold blood, my dear. Curiously enough, I killed blm In self-defence. As my little caravan approached his camp one evening, beside a water-hole In the Oued el Draa, he simply turned his men out and opened Are on us. "Filthy treschery," exclaimed Mar flaret. - I don't know whether he took us for Touareg from the Tanezrutt or whether he bad his suspicions of the Sefior Pedro Mallgnl. I know I had my suspicions ot Mallgnl as soon as von Mlttengon opened Ore on us at sight and wondered whether he were double double crossing, and had warned von Mlt tongen to look out tor me. "Anyhow, It was, as I say, a case of self-defence for we'd got to get to the water though I don't say I wasn't glad of the excuse, to go for blm. So 'Herr Schlacht' died that day and rose again that night In the porson ot myself. "And when I reached Mekazzen, the Mallgnls wore there all ready to vouch for me pass-word, pho tograph, and all." "Filthy treachery," exclaimed Margaret In deep disgust and In' dlgnatlon. "Yes, pretty bad. It might be ar gued, ot course," continued Colonel Le Sage, "that I'm as bad as they are; the rocelvor as bad as the thief." "Oh, no," expostulated Margaret "You are working for France, work ing for good not for your own per sonal profit not making money by betraying the person who employs you, and trusts you." Colonel Le Sage raised his huge hand and patted Margaret's shoul der, "Thank you. my dear. And now let's consider the 'Emperor Rlccoll' for Just a moment" CeffUU. HS1, F. A. Stctn Ce.)
