SYNOPSIS.
After the disastrous retreat of the
Army of Napoleon from Moscow, Briga
dier Gerard was sent through German ter
ritory, nominally friendly, but really ripe
for revolt, to raise troops in France. On
his way ha has observed with some dis
may the black looks of the hostile peas
ants, who In one place drank a mysteri
ous toast to the letter T. A little later
he Is warned of his peril try a terror
stricken man hidden by the roa'd side. "It
means death to mo If I am seen helping
you," he man had said.
"Death! From whom?" asked the brig
adle.r "From the Tusrcndbund. From Lutzow's
night-riders," replied the fellow. Soon
after the brigadier meets a French offi
cer, almost expiring from a ghastly wound
Indeed, he l!es beforo he has finished
what he sought to say, yet succeeds In
transmitting a message from Nupoleon's
own hand, to be delivered, at any haz
ard, to the prince of Saxe-Felsteln, at Hot
On this mission Gerard proceeds, and
manages to avoid the riders. Detained,
however, at a small Inn by an accident to
his horse, he Is startled by a woman's cry,
and hastens to her uld. He finds her be
tel by rufllans, but easily effects her res
cue. Slie Is the Countess Palotta. so she
says, mistreated because of her friendship
for tho French. She completely wins Ills
confidence, and by a ruse succeeds In rob
bing him of his precious papers. Terribly
disconcerted, he nevertheless conjectures
the nature of the message, and gallops on,
resolved to deliver It by word of mouth,
lint at the Hof he is denied access to the
prince. The princess, however, meets
him; and In her he recognizes the proud
beauty who had betrayed him. Breaking
past her, by sheer strength and audacity
he forces his way Into the great ball where
the prince is sitting In the presence of his
full coimcll.
"I bear a message to the prince of
Saxe-Felsteln," he cries.
CHAPTER IV.
The man beneath the dais raised his
head, and I raw that his face was thin
and wan and that his back was bowed
as though some huse burden was bal
anced between his shoulders.
"Your mime, sir?" he asked.
"Col. IHIenne Gerard, of tho Third
hussars."
Every face In the Catherine; was
turned upon me, and I heard the rustle
of the innumerable necks and saw
countless eyes, without meeting one
friendly one among them. The woman
had Bwept past me, and was whispering
with many shakes of her head and dart-
iugs of her hands into the prince's ear.
For my part, I threw out my chest and
curled my moustache, glancing around
In my own debonnaire fashion at the
assembly.
They were men. all of them, profes
sors from the college, a sprinkling of
their students, soldiers, gentlemen, ar
tisans, all very silent and Berlous. Ill
one corner there sat a group of men In
black, with riding coats drawn over
their shoulders. They leaned their
heads to each other, whispering under
their breaths, and with every movement
I caught the ctank of (heir sabers or
the clink of their spurs.
"The emperor's private letter to me
Informs me that It la the Marquis Chai
f au St. Arnaud who Is bearing his dis
patches," said the prince.
"The marquis has been foully mur
dered," I answered, and a buzz rose up
from the people as I spoke. Many heads
were turned, and I noticed, toward the
dark men In the cloaks.
"Where are your papers?" said the
prince.
"I have none.''
A fierce clamor arose instantly round
me! "He Is a spy. He plays a part!"
they cried. "Hang him!" roared a deep
voice from the corner, and a dozen
others drew up the shout. For my part
I drew out my handkerchief and flick
ed the dust from the fur of my pelisse.
The prince held out his thin white hand
and tho tumult died away.
"Where, then, are your credentials,
and what Is your message?" he asked.
"My uniform Is my credentials, and
mv meonRire Is for your private ear."
He passed his hand over his forehead
with the gesture of a weak man who
is at his wits' ends what to do. The
princess stood beside him with her
hand upon the throne, and again she
whispered in his ear.
"We are here in council together,
some of my trusty subjects and my
self," he said. "I have no secrets from
them, and whatever message the em
peror may send to me at such a time
concerns their Interests no less than
mine."
There was a hum of applause at this,
and every eye was turned once more,
upon me. My faith. It was an awkward
position in which I found myself, for
it Is one thing to address 800 hussars
and another to speak to such an audi
ence on such a subject. Hut I fixed my
eyes upon the prince, and tried to say
Just what I should have said If we had
been alone, shouting It out ,too, as
though I had my regiment on parade.
"You have often expressed friendship
for the emperor," I cried. "It Is now
at last that this friendship Is about to
be tried. If you stand firm he will re
ward you as only he can reward. It
it an easy thing for him to turn a prince
Into a king, and a province Into a power.
His eyes are fixed upon you, and though
you can do little to harm him you can
ruin yourself. At this moment he Is
crossing the Rhine with 200,000 men.
Kvery fortress In the country is In his
hands. He will be upon you In a week;
and if you have played him false, God
help both you and your people. You
think that he Is weakened because a
few of us got the chilblains last winter.
Look there!" I cried, pointing to a great

star which blazed through the window
above the prince's head. "That is the
emperor's star. When It wanes he will
wane, but not before."
You would have been proud of me,
my friends, if you could have seen and
heard me, for I clashed my saber as I
spoke, and swung my dolman as though

my regiment was picketed outside In
the courtyard. They listened to me In
silence, but the back of the prince
bowed more and more, as though the
burden which weighed upon It was
greater than his strength. He looked
around with haggard eyes.
"We have heard a Frenchman speak
for France," he said. "Let us have a
German speak for Germany."
The folks glanced at each other and
whispered to their neighbors. My
speech had, as I think, hod Its effect,
and no man wished to be the first to
commit himself In the eyes of the em
peror. The princess looked around her
with blazing eyes and her clear voice
broke the Bilence.
"Is a woman to give this Frenchman
his answer?" she cried. "Is it pos
sible that among the night-riders of
Lutzow there Is none who can use his
tongue as well as his Babar?"
Over went a table with a crash, and a
young man had bounded upon one of
the chairs. He had the face of one In
spired, pale, eager, with wild-hawk eyes
and tangled hair. His sword hung
straight from hia side and his riding
boots were brown with mire.
"It Is Korner!" the people cried. "It
is young Korner, the poet! Ah, he will
sing, he will sing."
And he sang! It was soft at first and
dreamy, telling of old Germany, the
mother of nations, of the rich, warm
plains, and the gray cities, and the fame
of dead heroes. But then verse after
verse rang like a trumpet call. It was
of the Germany of now, the Germany
which had been taken unawares and
overthrown, but which was up again,
and snapping the bonds upon her giant
limbs. What was life that one should
covet it? What was glorious death that
ore should shun It? Tho mother, the
great mother, was calling. Her sigh
was in the night wind. She was crying
to her own children for help. Would
they come? Would they come 7 Would
they como?
Ah, that terrible song, the spirit face
and the ringing voice! Where were I
and France and the emperor! They did
not shout the people they howled.
They were up on the chairs and the
tables. They were raving, sobbing, the
tears running down their faces. Kor
ner had sprung from the chair, and his
comrades were around him with their
saber In the air. A flush had come in
to the pale face of the prince, and ho
arose from liln throno.
"Col. Gerard," said he, "you have
heard the answer which you are to cary
to your emperor. The Ole is cast, my
children. Your prince and you must
stand or fall togetn'r."
He bowed to sh hv that all was over,
and the people,, with a shout, made for
the door to ca-ry the 'Hlnra Into the
town. For my own pnrt. T had done all
that a brave mi rnlijlit, and f was n it
sorry to be cartel Mil nmld tho stream
Why should I linear iii the n-iiio'? I
had my answer end must carry i such
as It was. I wished neither to rcs Hof
nor Its peoplo "igali until I entered rit
the head of a vanguard I turned from
t.ie throng then end walked silently uri I
sadly In the direction in which they had
led the mare. r
It was dark down there by the stables
and I was peering round for the ostler
when suddenly my two arms were seized
from behind. There were hands at my
wrists and at my throat and I felt the
cold muzzle of a pistol under my ear.
"Keep your Hps closed, you French
dog," whispered a fierce voice. "We
have him, captain."
"Have you the bridle?"
"Here It is."
"Sling It over his head."
I felt the cold coll of leather tighten
round my neck. An ostler with a stable
lantern had come out and was gazing on
the scene. In Its dim light I saw stern
faces breaking everywhere through the
gloom, with the black caps and dark
cloaks of the night riders. 1
"What would you do with him, cap
tain?" cried a voice.
"Hang him at the palace gate."
"An ambassador?" -
"Yes, an ambassador without papers."
"But the prince?"
"Tut, man, do you not eee that tne
prince will then be committed to our
side? He will be beyond hope of for
giveness. 1 At present he may swing
round tomorrow as he has done before.
He may eat his words, but a dead hus
sar is more than he can explain."
"No. no. Von Strellts, we cannot do
it said another voice.
"Can-wenot? I will show you that!"
And there came a Jerk on the brldlt
which nearly pulled me to the ground.
At the same Instant a sword Hashed
and the leather was cut through within
two inches of my neck.
"By heavens, Korner, this Is rani
mutiny," cried the captain. "Ton may
hang yourself before you are through
with It"
"2 have drawn my sword aa a noldier
i p
and not as a brigand," said the young
poet "Blood may dim its blade, but
never dishonor. Comrades, will you
stand by and see this French gentle
man mishandled?"
dosen sabers flew from their
sheaths; It was evident that my friends
and my foes were about equally bal
anced. But the angry voices and the
gleam of steel had brought the folks
running from all parts.
"The princess!" they cried. VThe
princess is coming!"
And even as they spoke I saw her Irt
front of us, her sweet face framed in
the darkness. I had cause to hate her,
for she had cheated and befooled me,
and yet It thrilled me then and thrills
me now to think that my arms have en
braced her and that I have felt the
scent of her hair In my nostrils. I
know not whether she lies under her
German earth, or whether she still lin
gers, a gray-haired woman In her castle
of Hof; but Bhe lives ever, young and
lovely, in the heart and the memory of
Etlenne Gerard.
"For shame!' 'she cried, sweeping up
to me and tearing away with her own
hands the noose from my neck. "You
are fighting in God's own quarrel and
yet you would begin with such a devil's
deed as this. This man Is mine, and he
who touches a hair of his head will an
swer for it to me."
They were glad enough to slink off
Into the darkness before thoso scorn
ful eyes. Then she turned once more
to me.
"You can follow me, Colonel Oerard,"
she said. "I have a word that I would
speak to you."
I walked behind her Into the chamber
into which I had originally been shown.
She closed the door and then looked at
me with the archest twinkle In her eyes.
"Is it not confiding of me to trust my
self with you?" said she. " You will re
member that It Is the princess of Saxe
Felsteln, and not the poor Countesa Pa
lotta of Poland.'
"Be the name what It might," I an
swered, "I helped a lady whom I be
lieved to be In distress, and I have
been robbed of my papers and almost
of my honor as a reward."
"Colonel Gerard," said she. "We
have been playing a game, you and I,
and the stake was a he.ivv nm vi
have shown by delivering a message
which was never given to you that you
will stand at nothing In the cause of
your country. My heart Is German and
yours is French, and I also would go
all lengths, even to deceit and to theft,
f at this crisis I can help my suffer-
.imenuna. xou see how frank I
am! s
"You tell me nothing that t r,nv
seen." "
But now that the game is nl.-ivori on
won, why should wo bear malice? I
will say this, that If ever I wet- in
a plight as that which I pretended in
mo inn or iobensteln, I should never
wish to meet a more gallant nrotector
or a truer-hearted gentleman than Col.
e-tienne Gerard. I had never thought
that I could feel for a Frenchman as I
felt for you when I slipped the papers
from your breast."
"But you took them none the less."
"They were necessary to me and to
Germany. I knew the arguments which
they contained, and the effect which
they would have on the prince. If they
had reached him all would have been
lost!"
"Why should your highness descend
to such expedients when a score of these
brigands who wished to hang me at
your castle gate would have done the
work Just as well?"
"They are not brigands, but the best
blood 'of Germany," she cried, hotly.
"If you have been roughly used you will
remember the indignities to which
every German has been subjected, from
the queen of Prussia downwards. As to
why I did not have you waylaid upon
the road. I may say' that I had parties
out on all Bides, and that I was waiting
at Lobenstein to hear of their success.
When, Instead of their news, you ar
rived yourself, I was in despalr.for there
was only the one weak woman betwixt
you and my husband. You see the
straits to which I was driven before I
used the weapon of my sex?"
"I confess that you have conquered
mc, your highness, and It only remains
for me to leave you in possession of the
field."
"But you will take your papers with
you," she held them out to me as she
spoke. "The prince has crossed the
Rubicon now, and nothing can oring
him back. You can return these to the
emperor and tell him that we refused
to receive them. No one can accuse you
then of having lost your dispatches.
. "You Can Follow Me, Col. Gerard.
Good-bye, Col. Gerard, and the best that
I can wish you Is that when you reacn
France you may remain there. In a
year's time there will be no place for a
I'mnrhmnn unon this side of ie
DUtin
And thus It was that I played the
princess of Saxe-Felsteln with all Ger
many for a stake, and lost my game to
her. I had very much to think of as I
walked my poor tired Vlolette along ihe

from the chair. And I understood men
