to ico to Paradise.
CHAPTER VII.
A Strung'0 Foreshadowed.
I took my breakfast by tho window,
watching tho German toldlory clean
ing up Morsbronn.
1 A soldier canio In nnd rtartcd tho
flro in my fireplace. When ho went
out I drow my code-book from my
breeches pocket and tossed it into tho
flro. Aftter It followed my commission,
my momornnda, and cvory scrap ot
writing. Tho diamonds I placed In tho
bosom of my flannel shirt.
A Qcrmat nmbulanco surgeon nr
rived to bco mo In tho afternoon.
After a brlof examination ho sat
down and resumed a very bad cigar,
which had been smouldering between
his carefully kept fingers.
"Do you know," ho said ndmlrlngly,
"that 1 have never before- seen Just
such a wound. Tho spinal column Is
not ovon grazed. As fnr uh I can
soo tho blow from tho bullet tempo
rarily paralyzed tho spinal cord.
Thoro Ib no fracture, no depression.
1 do not soo why yon should not walk
If you doslro to."
"When? Now?"
"TT.V II.'; frffr-tofejflfr.
I tried. Apart from a cortaln mus
cular weakness nnd a great fatlguo, I
found It qulto posslblo to stand, ovon
lo movo n fow steps. Then I sat down
again, nnd was glad to do so,
Tho doctor wns looking at my legs
rather grimly, and It suddonly flashed
on mo thai I had dropped my blankot
and ho had noticed my hussar's trou
pers. "So." ho said, "you nro a military
prlsonor? I understood from tho pro
vost marshal that you wero a civil
ian." Ab ho Bpoko Uuckhurst appoarcd nt
tlio door, and then snuntcred In, qui
etly greeting tho surgeon, who looked
around nt tho sound of his Tootstops
on tlio stono floor. Thoro was no
longer a vestlgo of doubt In my mind
Hint uuckhurat wns n German agent,
or nt least that tho aonunns believed
him to bo In tholr pay. And doubtless
ho wus in their pay, but to whom ho
wna faithful nobody could know with
any certainty.
"How In our patient, doctor?" ho
askod. "Can ho travel today?"
"lleforo ho travola," said tho olllcer,
"It might bo well to find out why ho
wears part of n hussar uniform."
"I'vo oxplalned that to tho provost,''
observod Uuckhurst, examining his
woll-kopt flngor-nnlls. "And I have a
pass for him also if ho Is In a lit
condition to travol.
Tho officer gavo him n glanco full
of frunk dislike, adjusted his saber,
pulled on his whito gloves, nnd, bow
Ing vory slightly to mo, mnrched
stialght out of tho loom nnd down
tho stairs without taking any notlco
of Uuckhurst. Tho lattor looked nftor
tho olllcor, then his lndlfforont oyes
returned to mo. Presently ho sat down
and produced a email slip of papor,
which ho vory carorully twisted Into a
cockod hat.
"I uupposo you doubt my loyalty to
Franco," ho said.
Then, logically continuing my rolo
of tho morning, I began to upbraid
him for n trnltor and swonr that I
would not owo my salvation Co him.
"V6u nro unjust nnd n trlilo stupid."
ho said. "I nm paid by Prussia for In
formation which I never glvo. Hut I
hnvo tho entro of their linos. I do
It for tho unko of tho Intornatlonalo.
Tho Intornatlonalo has n fow peoplo
In Its service. . . . And it pays
thorn well."
Ho looked squarely at mo ns ho said
this. 1 almost tremblod with delight:
tho man undervalued mo, ho had taken
mo nt my own figure, and now, hold
ing mo In absolute contompt, ho wnu
going to begin on mo.
"Bcarlott," ho snltl, In Kngllsh, "lot
us como to tho point. I am a merce
nary American; you nro an Amorlcan
merconnry, paid by tho Kronen gov
ornmont, Vou enro nothing for that
govornmont or for tho country; you
would drop both today If your pay
ceased Vou and I nro outsiders; wo
nro In tho v.orld to watch our chancos
And our chnnco fa horo,
"Tho tlmo Is coming when tho rich
est city In Europo will be, put to tho'
sack. You don't believe 11? , Yet you
shall llvo lo sea Parlabesleged, and
you shall live to soo Parls'surrendor,
and you ehall llvo to see tho Interna
tional rlso up from nowhere, selzo tho
government by the throat, and cholto
It to death under tho red flag of uni
versal ahom I . . . license" fho
faintest sneer enmo into hls'pallld fnco
"nnd ovory city of Franco shall bo
a commune, and wo shallpar.s from
city to city, leisurely, underjthu law
otir laws, which wo will mako and I
pity tho man among us who cannot
placojiis millions In tho bank's of Eng
land nnd America!" &
He Iwincd forward in hlsjhnlr, Idly
twisting his crumpled bit of. paper In
one hrnd. X
"I ,nni not fopl enough to bellliv
that our rdgn will last," he-'-suId. "It
may last n. month, tyvo months, per
haps throo. Then we' leaders SvIU bo
nt one nnothor'a throatsand tho
game Is up! It's n'lwnys so mob ruin
can't last It novor has fasted and
never will. Hut the prudenf man will
mnko hay before tho brlefounijhlno
Is ended; I expect to economlzo n
little, nnd sot asldo enough well,
onough to mnko It pay, you'seo."
"Ho's bound to get toParndlso.
Why?" I wondered, nnd said, aloud.
rWlml do you want of tnb?"
"I want Immunity from tho' secret
pollco, Mr.. 8carlett."
"Thoro la one thing I want to nsk
you," said I. "Why do you 'doslro to
go to Paradise?" ' ?
"Well," ho said, slowly, "Ishall not
toll yon."
"Why not?" 1 demanded.;""
" Uut I'll sny this," ho Continued.
"I want you to como to PnrSdlso with
mo nud that fool of a woman.' I want
you to report to your government that
you are watching tho housoln Para
dise, and that you aro hoping to cat,ch
mo thoro." -3r
"You rofuso to tulljiio whyyou wlah
.to stay at tho houso In Paradleo?"
"Yes, ... I rofuseliP'And, by-tho-way,
tho Countess Is to 'think that
I havo presented mysolf InraTfS and
that tho government has? pardoned
mo."
Ho roso and walked to tha window;
at tho snmo momont I hoard the sounk
of whoels below,
"I bollnvo tlmjjp our.UUiaR.ol.hn
Bald. "Aro you ready tostort, ife
Scarlett?"
"Is tho Counteso do Vassart to go
with U8?" I asked, trying to And a rea
son for tlioso oveuj which wero suc
ceeding ono another too quickly to suit
mo.
IIo gnvo mo an nbscnt-mluded nod;

csa throw my hussar jacket ovor my
shoulders tind buttoned It. "I congrat
ulate you on your convuloscenco," alio
snld, lu a low voice. "Loan on mo,
monsieur."
Hy head ewum; hips and knees woro
without strength; uhu ultlod mo down
tho stairway and out Into tho pale
sunshlno, wlioro stood tho sumo mud
splashed, rusty vchlulo which had
brought us hither from La Trappo.
As I stood besldo tho carriage, won
dering how I wus going to get In, I
felt an nrm ollp under my neck nnd
another slldo gently under ray knees,
and Uuckhurst lifted 4no.
Tho CountefeB stepped Into tho car
riage and took hor placo besldo mo;
Huckhurut followed, seating himself
opposite us, nud tho Alsntlan driver
mounted to tho box.
"Your safe-conduct carries you lo
tho Fronch outposts nt Saverno," said
the provost dryly. "U there nro no
longer French outposts nt Saverno, you
may domand a vlso for your pass and
continue south to Strasbourg."
Huckhurut half turned towards tho
driver. "Alloz," ho snld, quietly, and
the two gaunt horses moved on.
"la thoro a rallroud at Savorno7" 1
asked,
"You will tnko a train at Strns.

"And then? Aro wo going direct to
Paris?"
"Mndamo do Vnssart dcilrcs to go
thoro," ho said, glancing at her with
n sort of sneaking deferuice which
ho now assumed in her presence.
"It Is true," said (ho Cdunfess, turn
ing to mo. "I wtelt to rest for n Uttlo
while- boforo I go to Point Paradise.
I am curiously tired of poverty, Mpn
slour Scarlett," sho added, nnd hold
out her shabby gloves with a geoturo
of despair; "I am reduced to very
little I havo scnrcely anything loft
. . . and I nm weak enough to long
for tho scent of tho winter vIolotB on
tho boulevards."
