maskAnd If I dont release him he demanded at last fiercely Then I shall take him was the reply It has been made Impossible for you to give an alarm the stranger went on The very men on whom you most depended have been bought and even If they were within sound of your voice now they wouldnt respond One of your assistants who has been here for years unloaded the revolver In the desk there and less than an hour ago cut the prison alarm wire I personally cut the police alarm out side the building So you see As yet there was no weapon In sIght save the unloaded revolver In tho wardens hand at no time had the strangers voice been raised Ills tone was a perfectly normal one Resides yourself there are only five other men employed here who aro now awake the masked man con tlnued These are four Inner guards and the outer guard They have all been boughtthe turnkeys at five thousand dollars each and the outer guard at seven thousand The receipt of all of this money Is conditional upon the release of SIgnor Petrozlnnl therefore It Is to their Interest to aid mo as against you I am telling you all this frankly and fully to make you see how futile any resistance would be But wlio who Is this SIgnor Petro zlnhl that such powerful Influences should be brought to bear In his be half demanded the bewildered war den He Is a man who can command a vast fortuneand Senor Alvarez Is at tho point of death That 1 think makes It clear Now If youll sit down pleaseSit down bellowed the warden Suddenly ho was seized by a vie lent maddening rage He took one step forward and raised the empty revolver to strike The masked man moved slightly to one side and his clenched fist caught the warden on the point of the chin The olllclal went down without a sound and lay still inert A moment later the door lead ing Into the corridor of the prison opened and SIgnor Petrozlnnl ac companied by one of the guards en tered the wardens office The masked man glanced around at them and with a motion of his head Indicated the door leading to the street They passed through closing the door be hind them For a little time the Intruder stood staring down at tho still body then ho went to the telephone and called police headquarters There has been a Jail delivery at the prison he said In answer to tho hello of tho desksergeant at the other end of the wire Better send some of your men up to investigate Who IH that came the answering questionThe ranger replaced the receiver on the hook stripped off his black mask dropped it on the floor beside the motionless warden and went out It was Mr Grimm I CHAPTER XVIII N Notice to Leave At fifteen minutes of midnight when Miss Thome followed by Signor Ictroginnl entered tho sitting room of her apartments in the hotel and turned up the light they found Mr Grimm al ready tthere He rose courteously At sight of him Miss Thomes face went deathly white and the escaped pris oner turned toward the door again- I would advise that you stay your HIghness said Mr Grimm coldly SIgnor Potrozlnnl paused amazed You will merely subject yourself to the humiliation of arrest if you at tempt to leave The house Is guarded by a dozen men Your Highness Miss Thorne re peattd blankly You are assuming a great deal arent you Mr Grimm I dont believe and Mr Grimms listless eyes were fixed on those of the escaped prisoner I dont believe that Prince Benedetto dAbruzzI will deny his Identity There was one of those long tense silences when eyes challenges eyo when wit is pitted against wit and mind Is hauled around to a now and sometimes unattractive view of a sit uation Miss Thorne stood silent with rigid features colorless as marble but slowly a sneer settled about the iiiof Slgnur Pttlruilmii that was and he sat down You seem to know everything Mr Grimm ho taunted- I try to know everything your Highness was tho reply Mr Grimm was still standing I know for In stance that one week ago the plot which had your freedom for Its pur pose was born I know the contents of every letter that passed between you and Miss Thorne here notwithstand ing the Invisible Ink I know that four days ago several thousand dollars was smuggled In to you concealed in a basket of fruit I know with that money you bribed your way out while Miss Thorne fir ono of her agents lirilinil itu emajl In front I Vnr u thAt t- E A GFF the escape was planned lor tonight and that the man who was delegated to take charge of it is now locked in my ofllce under guard It may Inter est you to know that It was I who took his place and made the escape possible I know that much You you the prince burst out suddenly You aided me to escape Mss Thorne was staring staring at them with her eyes widely dIstended- am her red lips slightly parted Why did you assist him she de mandedDetails are tiresome Miss Thorne replied Mr Grimm with the utmost courtesy There Is one other thing I knowthat the Latin compact will not be signed In the United States The princes eyes met Miss Thornes Inquiringly and she shook her head The sneer was still playing about his mouthAnything else of special Interest that you know he queried Yes of Interest to both you and Miss Thorne That is merely if the Latin compact is signed anywhere the Englishspeaking countries of the world might construe It as a casus belli and strike soon enough and hard enough to put an end to it once for allAgain there was silence for a little while Slowly the princes eyes were darkening and a shadow flitted across Miss Themes face The prince rose ImpatientlyWell Is the meaning of all this Are you going to take me back to prison No said Mr Grimm He glanced at his watch I will give each of you onehalf hour to pack your belongings We must catch a train at one oclock Leave the city gasped Miss Thorne Impossible exclaimed the prince Onehalf hour said Mr Grimm coldlynuthut 1 its out of the question expostulated Mss Thome Onehalf hour repeated Mr Grimm He didnt daro to meet those wonderful bluegray eyes now A special car with private compartments will be attached to the regular train and the only inconvenience to you will be the fact that the three of us will be compelled to sit up all night Half a dozen other Secret Service men will be on the train with us And then the princes entire manner underwent a change Mr Grimm he said earnestly it Is absolutely necessary that I remain in Washington for another weekre main here even If I am locked up again lock me up again if you like I cant sign compacts In prison Twentyfive minutes replied Mr Grimm quietly nut here exclaimed the prince ex plosively I have credentials which will Insure my protection In spite of your laws- I know that said Mr Grimm placidly Credentials of that nature cannot be presented at midnight and you will not be here tnmnrrow to present them The fact that you have those credentials your Highness Is one reason why you must leave Wash ington now tonight CHAPTER XIX By Wireless They paused In the ofllce the three of them and while Miss Thorne was giving some instructions as to her baggngo the prince went over to the telegraph booth and began to write a message on a blank Mr Grimm ap peared at his elbow No he sold Cant I send a telegram if I like demanded the prince sharply No nor a note nor a letter nor may you speak to any one Mr Grimm informed him quietly Why Its an outrage flamed the princeIt depends altogether on the viewpoint your Highness said Mr Grimm courteously If you will par don me I might suggest that It is needless to attract attention by your present attitude You mayI say you may compel me to humiliate you The prince glared at him angrily I mean handcuff you Mr Grimm added gratuitouslyHandcuff me I shouldnt hesitate your Highness if it was necessary After a moment Miss Thorne signi fied her readiness and they started out At tho door Mr Grimm stopped and turned back to the desk as it struck by some sudden thought leav ing them together Oh Miss Thorne left a message for some one Mr Grimm was saying to the clerk Shes decided it is un necessary HQ turned and glanced toward her and the clerks eyes fol lowed his Please give it to me It was passed over without com ment It was a sealed envelope ad dressed to Mr Charles WInthrop Ran kin Mr Grimm glanced at the su- perscrIption tore the envelope into bits and dropped it into a basket A minute later he was assisting Miss Thorno and the prince Into an auto mobile that was waiting In front As tha nor moved away two other auto mobiles appeared from corners near by and trailed along behind to the station There a private compart mentcar was in readiness for them It was a long dreary ridea ride of utter silence save for the roar and clatter of tho moving train Mr Grimm vigilant implacable sat at ease Miss Thorno resigned to the inevitable whatever it might be studied the calm quiet face from beneath drooping lids and the prince sullen scowling nervously wriggled in his seat Philadelphia was passed and Trenton and then tho dawn be gan to break through the night It was quite light when they rolled into Jersey City Im sorry for all the Inconvenience I have caused Mr Grimm apologized to Miss Thorno as hi assisted her to alight You must be exhausted It it were only that she replied with a slight smile And is it too early to ask where we are going The prince turned quickly at the questionWe take the Lusltania for Liver pool at ten oclock said Mr Grimm obligingly Meanwhile lets get some coffee and a bite to eat Are you going to make the trip with us asked the prince Mr Grimm shrugged his shoulders Weary and spiritless they went aboard the boat anda little while later they steamed out Into the stream and threaded their way down the bay Miss Thorne stood at the rail gazing back upon the city they were leaving Mr Grimm stood beside her the prince still sullen still scowling sat a dozen feet away This is a wonderful thing you have done Mr Grimm said Miss Thorne at lastThank you ho said simply It was a destructive thing that you in tended to do Did you ever see a more marvelous thing than that and he Indicated the skyline of New York Its the most marvelous bit of mech anism in the world the dynamo of the western hemisphere You would have destroyed it because in the Isnt It Odd That You and IIStandI- ng Here by the RailHave In a Way Held the Destinies of the Whole Great Earth In Our Hands worldwar that would have been the first point of attack She raised her eyebrows but was silentSomehow he went on after a mo ment I could never associate a wom an with destructiveness with wars and with violence That is an unjust way of saying it she Interposed And then musIng- ly Isnt It odd that you and I standing here by the railhave in a way held the destinies of the whole great earth in our hands And now your remark quakes iuo fuel that you alone have stood for peace and the general good and I for destruction and evil- I didnt mean that Mr Grimm said quickly You have done your duty as you saw it andIt Failed she interrupted And I have done my duty as I saw It And won I she added She smiled a little sadly I think perhaps you and I might have been excellent friends if It had not been for all this- I know we should have said Mr Grimm almost eagerly I wonder if you will ever forgive me forfor1Forgive you she repeated There is nothing to forgive Ono must do ones duty But I wish it could have been otherwise The Statue of Liberty slid by and Governors Island and Fort Hamilton then in the distance Sandy Hook light came Into view Im going to leave you hero said Mr Grimm and for the first time there was a tense strained note in his voiceMiss Thornos bluegray eyes had grown mistily thoughtful the words startled her a little and she turned to face him It may be that you and I shall never meet again Mr Grimm went on We will meet again she said gravely When and whore I dont know but it will come And perhaps then wa may he friends Ho was pleading now Why we are friends now arent we she asked and again the smile curled her scarlet lips Surely we are friends arent we We aro he declared positively- As they started forward a revenue cutter which had been hovering about Sandy Hook put toward them flying some signal at her masthead Slowly the great boat on which they stood crept along then the clang of a bell in the engineroom brought her to a standstill and the revenue cutter came alongside- I leave you here Mr Grimm said again Its goodby finmlhv olio wittl softly Good I by tin we meet once more She extended both hands impulsive ly and hestood for an instant staring into the limpid gray eyes then turn big went below From the revenue cutter he waved a hand at her as the great Lusitania moving again sped on her way The prince Joined Miss Thorne at the rail The scowl was still on his face And now what he demanded abruptly This man has treated us as if we were a pair of plied Hes a wonderful childrenII That may bebut we have been tools to allow him to do all this Miss Thorne turned flatly and faced himWe are not beaten yet she said slowly If all things go well we we are not beaten yet The Lusltania was rounding Mon tauk Point when the wireless brought her to haltspeed with a curt message Isabel Thorne and Pietro Petro zInnI aboard Lusitania wanted on war rants charging conspiracy Tugboat will take them off intercepting you beyond Montauk Point CAMPBELL Secret Service What does that mean asked the prince bewildered- It means that the compact will be signed In Washington in spite of Mr Grimm and there was the glitter of triumph in her eyes With the aid of one of the maids in the depot at Jer sey City I managed to get a telegram of explanation and instruction to Do Foe in New York and this is the result He signed Mr Campbells name I suppose to give weight to the mes sageAn hour later a tugboat came along side and they went aboard CHAPTER XX The Light In the Dome From where he sat In a tiny al cove which Jutted out and encroached upon the line of the sidewalk Mr Grimm looked down on Pennsylvania Avenue the central thread of Wash ington ever changing always brilliant splashed at regular Intervals with light from highflung electric arcs The early theater crowd was In the street well dressed well fed care less for the moment of all things save physical comfort and amusement au tomobiles carriages cal cers flow ed past endlesslyand yet Mr Grimm saw naught of it In the distance at one end of the avenue the dome of the capital cleft the shadows of night and a single light sparkled at ifts apex in the other direction at the left of the treasury building which abruptly blocks the wide thoroughfare were the shimmering windows of the White House Motionless moody thoughtful Mr Grimm sat staring staring straight ahead comprehending none of these things which Ilay before him as in a panorama Instead his memory was conjuring up a pair of subtle blue gray eyes now pleading now coquet tish now frankly defiant two slim white wonderful hands the echo ot- a pleasant throaty laugh a splendid elusive radianthaired phantom Tru ly a woman of mystery Who was this Isabel Thorne who for months past had been the stormcenter and directing mind of a vast International intrigue which threatened the world with war Who this remarkable young woman who with ease and as surance commanded ambassadors and played nations as pawns Now that she was safely out of the country Mr Grimm had leisure to speculate Upon him had devolved the duty of blocking her plans and he had done somerciless alike of his own feelings and of hers Hesitation or evasion had never occurred to him It was a thing to be done and he did It He wondered if she had understood there at the last beside the rail He wondered It she knew the struggle it had cost hIm deliberately to send her out of his life Or had even surmised that hor expulsion from the country by his direct act was wholly lacking in the exaltation of triumph to him that it struck deep er than that below the listless official exterior into his personal happiness And wondering he knew that she did understandA shod waiter came and placed the coffee things at his elbow He didnt heed The waiter poured a demitasse and inquiringly lifted a lump of sugar In the silver tongs Stir Mr Grimm didnt heed At last the waiter deposited the sugar on thee edge of tho fragile saucer and moved away as silently as ho had come A newspaper which Mr Grimm had placed on the end of the table when ho sat down rattled a little as a caughtItto the floor Mr Grimm was still staring out of the window Slowly the room behind him was thinning of its crowd as time theater bound diners went out IH twos and I threes The last of these disappeared finally and save for Mr Grimm there personsleft eutesI leadlna rein the strPot ellrkedE j doorsII a gentleman entered He j around as It seeking a seat near a window then moved along in Mr Grimms direction between the rows of tables His gaze lingered on Mr Grimm for an instant and when he came opposite he stooped and picked up the fallen newspaper sheet Your paper ho inquired courte ouslyMr Grimm was still gazing dreamily out of the window- I beg pardon

over that and we hope it will We hope the Interstate Commerce Commission is right Some phases of the decisions might have been appealed to the newly created Commerce Court but the railroads have

ready four candidates Messrs Ed C ORear E T Franks W II Cox and E P Morrow have announced for the nomination for Gover nor and others are daily expected At the very outset it is the fuldi I against Judge ORear The federal machine headed by Hon W 0 Bradley is championing the cause of the Senators nephew Mr Mcr row The first test strength came Saturday at the committee meeting The ORear supporters were loud in their demands for an early convention preferring the first week in Juno the Anti 0Rear men were equally as insistent for a late convention and carried their point by about three to one July 11th being named as the day If the contest was to be decided by primary the distinguished Montgomery County Jurist would win hands down but in a convention with half a dozen candidates running for every place the knowing politicians confidently predict the federal steamroller will be invincible and that he will be euchred out of the nomination Our worthy contempor aiy the Gazette says if this is done The Republican Party will go down in defeat this fallwhile Gov Augustus E Willson says Judge ORears nomination would be a calamity to the Republican party in Kentucky and I think his nomination would mean sure defeat for the Republican ticket this fall Unless all signs fall the contest for this empty honor will be a bitter one FAVORS PLATFORM CONVENTION We are indeed glad to know that Senator James B McCreary favors a Platform Convention and agree with him that the time to hold it is after the primary The Madison County statesman has the right ideanominate a ticket in an honestly conducted primary then meet in convention and promulgate a progressive platform of principles and the final contest will be a question of majority only So work on the brick streets is to

seriousness of the wood question and on the fourth of March seven years later the Agricultural Ap propriation Bill was approved and investigation begun It was found that tha hardwood in the Appalachian Mountains had fallen off 15 per cent in the last seven years and as the future supply hinged upon the control of these mountains the fact became startling If this mountain system were of any value to the states the gain in the latter would partly conceal the loss of wood but if steps are not taken to prevent the destruction of forests not only in the mountains but all over the country the American people will have to adopt the French plan of restoration which will amount to probably threa times the taxes now paidout on forest wood every year Mr Beckner of Winchester well said before the Farmers Institute held in this city that The hun berman is not the forester and it seems to me that the sooner we ascertain the object of forestry and apply the principles the better it will be As the forest is the most highly organized portion of the vegetable world it might be well to divide this broad subject into three parts First the importance of protect ing the wooded area Second the effect upon the topography of the country and third the disastrous results upon the forests and the people The late Congress says Current Events created forest reserves in the Southern Ap palachian and White Mountains Many newspapers say this is the brightest spot on the record of the Sixtyfirst Congress Studies of the forest conditions in the Southern Appalachians show that these lands are capable of pro ducing a much greater average of wood per acre annually and so witha whole forest protection wonders might be wrought Another important fact is the value of the mountains of Eastern United States for recreation The White Mountains for instance are used annually by thousands of people from every state iin the Union and from foreign countries as well No other section of the country is so accessible to many of the greater eastern cities The very existence of the region as a summer resort depends directly upon its protection as the natural beauty is enhanced by forest cov ering In vii w of several conditions it is c ntrileGovern ment should undertake without delay the acquisition of a definitely I restricted amount of land in specified watersheds in the White Mountains and Southern Appa lachians for the establishment of national forests By erosion is meant the uncovering and wearing away of the earths surface and if this is al lowed the topography of a country may be changed so that even the industries seek a new locality There is a great area now barren and eroded lands and considering the expense of planting timber anthem and the time before returns may be secured they are the most costly class of lands that can be purchased Nearly every acre of these lands is the watershed of a navigable stream on which for the removal of sand and silt tho Government is even now spending money in large amounts This sandand this silt now in the rivers have conic from the charred slopes of the lower elevations and if the forests were destroyed from the higher lands also the expense of e keeping the streams clear would be multiplied many times The influence of forests upon streams alone makes farming possible in many regions while everywhere it tends to prevent floods and droughts It is a well known fact that the cutting away of the forests may destroy the en tire community In one locality the cattle and sheep were turned into the once thickly wooded area the grass was all consumed leav ing the soil fully exposed to the rain great floods followed erosion took place beds of barren stones were spread over the once fertile fields by force of the water and many rich valleys were almost entirely depopulated The last is the effect upon the forest and the people The life history of a forest crop unfolding itself through the courso of several hundred years is full of strug gle and dangers in youth but is restfuland refined in old age Be sides the disastrous effects of lumbering the enemies of the forest are fire grazing trampling insects fund windand snow But fire is the enemy which cannot be killed Sometimes it itpartly benu ficial by killing the veterans and to promoting vigorous young trees to take their places but those which do the most harm occur usually in the fall At whatever time they appear their destructive powers depend very much upon the wind which by a sudden change may check the fire or may turn it off in a new direction and perhaps threaten the lives of the men at work by driving it sud denly upon them The means of fighting fire ore not everywhere the same but in every case a delay of a very few minutes may permit a fire that at first could have easily been extinguished to gather headway and get beyond control The whole country is beginning to realize the importance of pres ervation but as Mr Beckner says Lets not depend wholly upon the Government to protect our lands It would be better for each State to look after its own welfare and still better if each individual would take active steps in promoting this
