De Chaumont and I had moved with
our heads together, from corridor to
antechamber, from antechamber to cur

search It ha became auspicious.
The count, knowing what Madame ds
Ferrler considered me, perhaps knew my
plan. Ha turned back at once assenting.
The Marquis and Marquise de Ferrler
were that Instant going up the grand
staircase, and would be announced.
Enftle turned her face nbovc me, tho

Count de Chaumont grasped my arm,
and we hurried up the atalrs after them.

There wa no chance. De Chaumont
wheeled, ready to Introduce me to the
marquis. I was not permitted to speak t
him. llut Eagle took my tight arm nnd
moved down the corridor with me.
Decently and at once the disguised
gendarme fell behind, where he could
watch every musclo without alarming
Madame do Ferrler. She appeared not
to see him. I have no doubt he praised
hlmsttf for his dellcaoy and her uncon
sciousness of my arrest.
"You must net think you can run awa
from mc," she said.
"I was coming back," I answered, mak
Ing talk.
My captor's person heaved behind me,
signifying that he silently laughed. He
kept within touch.
"DO you know the Tullcrlea well?" In
quired. Eagle.
, "No. I have nev6r been In th palace
before."
"Nor I In the state apartments."
We turned from the corridor Into a
suite In these upper room, the gendarme
humoring Madamo de Ferrler. and mak
ing himself one In the crowd around us.
De Chaumont nnd the Marquis de Ferrler
gave chase. I saw them following, as
well as they could.
"This used to be the queen' dressing
room"." sntd, Eagle. We entered the last
One In the suite.
"Are you sure"
"Quite sure."
"ThB Is the room you told me you
would like to examine."
"The very orle. I don't believe the
Empire hns made any changes n Jt
These painted figure look Just as Oophla

EaRle traced lightly with her finger one
of the shepherdesses dancing on the panel
and creased to the opposite aide of the
room, Feopla who passed the door found
nothing to Interest them, and turned
away, but the gejidarme stayed beside us.
Eagle glanced at him as If resenting
hU Intrusion, and asked mo to bring 'her
a candle and hold It near a mark on the
tracery. Tho gendarme himself, apolo
get c but firm, stepped to the sconce and
took the candle. X do not know how the
