The lights of the city flashed by, and Anally grew few and far between, and then came the blackness of the country. It would take an hour and a half to cross the frontier, and there would bo no stop this sldo, for which he was gruteful. He swore, mumbling. To have come all this way to study, and then to leg It In this Ignomlnous fash Ion! It was downright scanda ous! Whoever heard of such laws? Of course he had been rather silly In pulling his gun, for even In the United Stales where he devoutly wished himself at that moment It was a misdemeanor to carry concealed weapona He felt of his cheek. He would return some day, and If It was the last thing he ever did, he would slash that lieutenant's cheeks. The Insolent beggar! To be struck and not to strike back! lie choked. Gradually hla eyes became accustomed to the dim light, and he cast about. The deuce! he muttered. Ho was not alone. Huddled In the far corner was a woman heavily veiled. Young or old, he could not tell. She sat motionless, and appeared to bo looking out of the opposite window. Well, so long as she did not bother him he would not bother her. But he would much rather have been alone. He took out his passport and tried to read It. It was impossible. So be rose, steadied himself, and turned up the wick of one of the lamps. He did not hear the muffled exclamation which came from the other end. He dropped back upon the cushion and began to read. So he was George EIIIb, an American student In good standing; he was aged 29, had blue eyes, light hair, was six feet tall, and weighed 154 pounds. Ha! he bad, then, lost 30 pounds In as many minutes? At this rate he wouldn't cast a shadow when he struck Dresden. He had Btudled three years at the college; but wbat tbe deuce had he studied?

Why, you are the last person I ever expected to see again. Indeed, you are only a ; there Is, I find, no such person as Hlldegarde von Holdeloff." Clearly he was recovering. 1 know It, It was my candidly. mother's name, and I saw fit to use It, Him really hoped he hadn't followed her. You had no need to use It, or any name, for that matter. When I gave you tny name It was given in good faith. The act did not Imply that I desired to know yours. "But you did!" Imperiously. Yes. Curiosity Is the brain of out mental anatomy." When Max began to utter tall phrases it was a sign of fairy-story- even-balance- d mentality. And If t hudn't told you my name, you would have asked for it" Not the first day. Well, you would have on Tuesday." He certainly Not a bit of a doubt. wouldn't show her how much he cared. (What was she doing In this carriage? She had said nothing that morning about traveling.) Well, you admit that under the circumstances I had tbe right to give any name It pleased me to give. He came over to her end and aat ) down. Her protests be Ignored. I can not aee very well from over there, he explained. It is not necessary that you should see; you can hear wbat I have to say. Very well; I'll go back. And he did. He made a fine pretense of looking out of the window. Why should this girl cross his path at this unhappy moment? There was a pause. You are not near so nice as you were this morning, she aaid presently. (half-hearted- CHAPTER VIII. Continued. At 11 I received a telephone call from the Continental hotel. It was a woman's voice, and my heart beat violently as I recognized it I was requested to come at once to the hotel. 1 should find her in the ladles salon. 1 walked the distance in ten minutes. She told me all that bad happened. By this time it is all over the city. But It is all nonsense about her highness' eloping with any one. She is too nobly born to commit such a folly. She has simply run away; and 1 very much fear that she will be caught The duke is In a terrible temper. I could not remain In the palace, for the duke suspects that I know where she has gone. I have my passports. The British consul Is away hunting. You were the only English-speakinperson to whom I could come for aid." I am very glad.

There waa altogether a different feeling In my heart as I watched her train draw out. Eh, well, the world is' small and England is s nailer, even as she had said. It's a mighty fine world, when you get the proper angle of vision. CHAPTER IX. There was very little light ta the compartment into which Max bad so successfully dived.

Well, Max presently turned hla glance toward his silent She had lifted her fellow traveler. veil and was staring at him with wondering, fearing eyes. These eyes were somewhat red. as if the little bees of grief had stung them. "You!" he cried, the blood thumping into his throat He tossed his hat to the floor and started for her end of the compartment. She held up a hand as If to ward off his approach. "I can hear perfectly, she said; It Is not needful that you should come any nearer. He Bat down confused. He could not remember when his heart had beaten so Irregularly.

"I wasn't particular what compartment I got into so long as I got Into one. As I said, I was In a hurry." You said nothing this morning about going away from Barscheit Neither did you." Another pause. (I take it, from the character of this dialogue, that their morning rides must have been rather Interesting.) You told me that you were In Bap scheit to study nerves," wickedly.

She recalled the duke's declaration that be should have her every movement watched. If this American was watching her, the duke was vastly more astute than she had given him the credit for being. "Are you in the pay of the duke? Come, confess that you have followed me, that you have been watching me for these four days." How bitter the cup of romance tasted to her now! She had been deceived. Well, you shall never take me from this train save by force. I will not ;o back! (TO BE CONTINUED.) ESTATE On What Is Being Done I Maks It Residences of th Finest Country In America Some of Its Features. Since the modest home of Mr. John Rockefeller, tbe oil king, on hts Tocan-ticfloe estate of 2.000 acres In the hills near Tarrytown, N. Y., was burned he has been perfecting plans for a new and more elaborate residence. In fact the pluns were ready some time ago and work begun. But while the house Is only partially comto pleted It Is stated that he Is about be to work much Is In. There move masonry walls which are to fortify his D. o citadel against Intruders are not finished. The house stands on the very summit of the hill. There Is nothing remarkable about It. It Is far less would striking and Imposing than one expect to find. Somehow, it seems small and out of scale with Its surroundings. After driving half or three quarters of a mile through a residence park that Is more than twice as large as Central Park, the visitor expects to find the mansion commensurate slth the estate. If the house lacks In majesty It makes up for It In the views It commands. Its site Is higher than any other point In the neighborhood. It is the center of an horizon which includes the scarred sides of Point No Point and the southerly gate to the highlands on one side and on the other the ridges which rise like waves between the Hudson and Long Island sound. Without a single tree to hide the nakedness of the house or soften its lines, the occupant can look out upon the lordly Hudson and an estate which. In the words of the hack-man- . almost as far aa the eye can reach Is his. Close about the house the eye falls upon features which are the rewards and penalties of wealth. Doubtless the great stone wall being erected around the house could almost be looked upon as a penalty, for It Is occuprobably intended to protect the This Intruders. from house the of pant Is not the only house in the grounds which has to be protected from prying eyes. The wooden house near by occupied by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., Is surrounded by a piazza. Each entrance to this piazza is closed by a locked door. A caller cannot even gain access to the front door to ring the bell without first ringing a ben for admission to the piazza Itself. Some of the rewards are here seen in the golf course which flows away over a rolling, closely clipped lawn directly In front and just below the KERM1T g time. A P0CANT1C0 HOME 1 house.

In the acquisition of the parcels necessary to complete his scheme for a summer home, Mr. Rockefeller has bought house after house. It Is said that there are 78 houses In the park which he has acquired In the course of the execution of his plans. Most of them are occupied by employes. There have been some parcels of property which Mr. Rockefeller has not found it possible, with all Mr. his great wealth, to purchase. Rockefeller does not like saloons in his neighborhood. Recently a tavern standing at the junction of Sleepy Hollow, Bedford and Eastvlew roads, In the village of North Tarrytown, was offered for sale at auction. It was known as The Anchor, and had been conducted by John Jacob Melin for 24 years. Eight years ago, it Is said, Mr. Rockefeller offered him $8,500 for hla place. He declined, and has gained some good advertising in consequence, It brought $5,000 at auction.
