It wa< but a short war to rhe cliff lined coast, and there were a hundred fissures ami •anyon-like inlets where a boat might be hidden. Before she could secure aid and locate the particular fiord foi which the conspirators were hendin-' they might make good their escape. There was nothing to do but follow them and trust to circumstances to af ford her an opportunity fflr successful a< tion. Bitterly she recretted the ah of the little revolver that had swung at her hip in the old days in Nevada To one *ho had stalked antelope 01 almost leafless aud table-like plain? there was HO difficulty in followin: closely and unobserved through tbi hedged and ditched land. Wry soot Betty saw t-'te countess and her com PRnion disappear as though they b;o been swallowed by the enrth. and sh knew that they had descended one o 'he steep paths leading to the botton <>f the cliff.

As the duke prepared to step int' the waiting boat a rope dropped, ap parently from the skv. and the loop ol a lasso gripped his body. The next in stunt, as Betty cried an order and the cow pony lunged forward, tbf man wa« snatched from his feet and drawn rapidly up the face of the cliff When her captive was within arm's reach of tbe top Betty again shouted md Pinto s'-vd still. Lying flat upon her face. Betty reached down and fro:ti tbe man's breast pocket extracted the '•Sse containing the precious jewel and fmm a ho'ster swung under his arm Pit a revolver. The duke made no ef fort to prevent this despoilment—with both hands he clutched frantically at the rope by which he dangled. With a laugh of triumph B«ttr • prang tip. and. feeling secure with the revolver fn Dei UatnTs. gave Pinto a word which caused iiiui to drag the dangling man to the safety of the cliff top. Betty began to move toward the pony, but lx-fore she had rea<-tie*l it there was a -jui'-k rush of feet, and the countess, followed by the officers and sailors, sprang up the path Each held a ready weapon, and. at sight of Betty the countess raised her revolver arid fired. As Betty turned to face this attack the duke, who had disen tangled himself from the coils of the lasso, dashed past her. reached the horse and struck him with the flat of bis hand upon the flank With a snort of astonishment. I'into galloped away. Again the countess fired, then the offi'-er and sailors, and Betty could hear the bullets hum about her like an gry bees. A little in her rear Betty saw she could find cover. and retreated hastily. There were five of the enemy, ;iud as she had but five cartridges she was not winded to waste them. How ever. it was necessary to temporarily • heck the advance of the countess" party, and the girl paused to fire once. With a cry tbe officer dropped his re volver and staggered, clutching at his shoulder. During the confusion that followed. Betty gained the shelter of stone and furze for which she was striving. The attackers now advanced cau tiously. the diike hariug possessed himself of the wounded officer's weap on. all excepting tbe countess seeking the cover of the rocks. She stood de fiantly in the open, watching for Bet!/ to expose herself to a finishing shot. Three times Betty rested her revolver upon her rocky rampart and drew a tine sight upon the countess* breast, but each time she lowered it. * "She deserves it. but 1 caunot do it," Betty whispered. "I cannot!" The duke and the two sailors contin ued their cautious advance, tiring as they moved. Meanwhile Pinto, disdaining roads, had cut straight across tbe fields to ''roftlaigh and had spread wild alarm as lie passed. A score of laborers rec- ogniied the pony and were tilled with horror as to what the empty saddle might bode. They hastened in the di rection from whence IMuto had come "Are you afraid of a girl?" the count ess taunted the men. who still crept cautiously from rock to rock. "You duke? 1 have seen you brave enough to wear out a dog whip on a girl ere this. See. i stand in the open and do not die!" "But he can't." Betty muttered fierce ly. Stunc by the countess' scorn, the duke incautiously raised himself, and a bullet burned a red welt across his cheek. "Charge!" the duke yelled fiercely, but the countess screamed a warning and pointed inland. Hushing toward them were a score of stout rustics, men and women, and as Betty's voice rose in a cry for help the yokels burst into a yell of fury and redoubled their speed. ""1 o the boat!" the countess gasped, and they fled along the edge of the cliff toward the path leading down to ihe water. The Yokeli Burst Into a Yell of Fury and Redoubled Tnair Speed. rben occurred an incident common the English coast, where year by year the cbn'.klike cliffs are under mined by the beating waves and suck ing tides. With an earth shaking roar s great slice of the cliff face gave war uuder the fly ins feet of the conspira tors. as though the very soil of Britain had been stirred t*> revenge upon its secret foes, and the Countess I.urovich the nameless duke, the wounJed offi cer and the two saiiors went down to tenth, buried forever from the sight of man. An hour later Betty softly entered the old library at Croftlaigb. where Cecil and Bob still sat in dreary md hope!'** conference. On the table in front of the young officer she placed J small case. "Open it." she said gently, awl dnllv obeyed. As his eyes rested upon what was i lisclosed Bob staggered wildly to his feet, his face white "What is it! Betty?" Cecil cried, (tartled at the amassing effect produced tpon his nephew, whose breast was low heavine with sobs. It was Bob who answered, as he Iropped upon his knees and pressed ] Betty's hands to bis li|>g. "It is the Star of (Jokarai:" be wbis- ! jered CHAPTER XV. in Port o' Dreams.

To have been the means of restoring ° her husband's house those great es ates which the pinching fingers of pov- ! »rty had filcheii away was to Betty a source of "easeless delight. To Lord < 'ecil life was now a golden Ireain of love and contentment, and Betty was happy beyond even the (ague and wistful fancies that bad Mirred her girlish heart in the far 'way, lonely laud of her youth. But a ■inaie cloud drifted across the blue sky i yf her existence and at times cast in lier path a shadow. Proudly indifferent, so far as she her self was concerned. Betty, jealous for tier husband's honor, could not help' Jbserving what the serene egotism of liigh station hid from him--that no ef- j fort was made by his social equals to ' listurb the seclusion which I»rd and l.ady Cecil had soueht. A flood of invitations had followed ihe first announcement of Lord Cecil s | ITARRISBURG ST A R -IXP EPK NDE NT, TUBS DAY K VENT NO.

For herself Betty desired no social 1 i>referment -the simple life which she led wa» all sufficient to her happiness i —but as l.ady t'ecil she could not help but feel that the noble society of which a peer of Kngland and his wife were naturally members simply ignored her. That her husband audit in time rea j lize th : .< fact and he shamed thereby was Betty's only fear for the future. Her native intelligence was too great for her to resent what she knew to IK* class prejudice, cultivated and handed down through long centuries. She was quite capable of realixing! that, from the point of view of the Duchess of Prex for instauee. she. Betty, was a little nobody whom it would be quite impossible to admit to social existence without violating the, most sacred of the laws whereby the duchess held her own exalted station. Just wherein lay the extraordinary influence, amounting almost to social despotism, exercised by the duchess, would luiv'e been difficult of explana tion by her most faithful subjects, but tlie fact remained that to receive a nod of approval from thus ratherj terrible old lady was to ha\e opened to one the moss Jealously guarded drawing room's of the kingdom, and not even the queen's favor was so xealous-: ly cultivated. To be able to claim most distant blood relationship with the duchess was sufficient to elevate a mere baro net to the social peerage, this being perhaps largely due to the'fact that' such claims to relationship were very few. In Iter old age the duchess, j tiprcoly proud. liM a lonely heart.
