the coast. Young Sullivan bowed and
the connection was broken.
The young roan wae using the Hawk,
the machine Santos Duprel had used
He went straight forward to meet the
tour strange aerodromones that were
approaching slowly, being handicapped
by tne,tremendous weight they were
carrying. He signaled for his three
men to come to his assistance. They
answered from the north and uouth
and he knew that they would hasten
to him. He sped onward, meeting the
four strange aerodromones. They had
slackened their pace and the foremost
answered Sullivan’s "Hello.”
"What do you want?” he asked In
Qerman, through the speaking tube.
"I want you to drop that balloon
that you are carrying into the ocean
right here!" replied Sullivan, decid-
edly, In the same language.
"We’ll drop It In good time, my
Mend.”
When the four aerodromones re-
fused to stop their flight toward Cl-
IIt 8truck the Metal Shell of the
l Bomb and the Next Second an Ex-
j plosion Came,
;ryne, Sullivan made a dart forward
;and upward and those In the bur
'dened crafts, knowing the slgnlllcance
of that upward dart, rose also.
"Will you drop that?” shouted Sul
111 van.
The answer waB a hall of bullets
Bulllvan was surprised to eee that
■ they bored Into the protecting shell
iof his mnchlne. They did not entirely
penetrate the cirynlth. "That Is some
thing new,” thought he. After the
ireturn to Clryne he examined those
i bullets and found each tipped with
diamond chips.
He Baw, in the distance, two othet
’aerodromones coming In answer to hie
icgll for assistance.
l'ner tour Hostile aerodromones con-
jtlnued their tire, and finally Sullivan
pulled the lever that discharged the
collected lightning. It struck the metal
Bhell of the bomb and the next second
'an explosion came that sent the flock
of machines high up Into the air. Sul-
livan’s 'dromone, being to one side,
did not suffer the shock that the oth
era had, and he succeeded In spreud
•ing the wings and checking the up
'ward flight.
The nature of cirynlth wob such that
the aerodromones escaped without
jmuch damage, but had the explosive
ifound u greater resistance than alt
|!here would have been great havoc
-among the machines.
The awful shock in the air was fell
'by Napoleon, who was circling above
: Madeira. He knew what had hap
;pencd, as Ills aerial instruments told
|hlm that the disturbance had been In
the air and not on the earth’B surface
Clryne was Bafe. He had been wait-
ing for Rosltta, but now, fearing that
her feet had been diverted to another
course, he hastened to meat her.
JuBt as he sighted the Spanish coast
-he saw, spread out In a great crescent,
•seventeen birds. He recognized the
"Princess” as the glittering bird In the
centor, leading. His powerful tele
■scope showed that the PrlncesB Ho
sltta and two men were in the fore-
most machine.
He begun to elevate the Eagle, with
out advancing, and the flotilla of the
,PrlneesB Ilositta also glided upward.
Thug he knew that he wus seen.
He still faced them nnd the dlB
jtance between them wus rapidly di-
minishing. He watched the oncoming
Princess closely and saw that one ol
the two men was Santos, strangely
changed. The ruddy cheekB were pale
,nnd ho seoniod taller. The other man
was a Btranger, dressed in the uniform
,of Rosltta's fleet.
Hardly two miles separated the
Eagle and the PrinceBs when Napo
l«on turned and flew at full speed
toward America. The Princess fol-
lowed. The larger bird nlowly gained
on the retreating Eagle. Rosltta’s
eyes glowed with excitement; the man
whom she feared, loved and hated was
running from her.
It seemed aa though they gained on
him with more rapidity; half a mile,
then a quarter, then only yards were
between them. Rosltta was now sure
of her prey and clutched the railing
behind Santos, whispering sweet and
encouraging words in his ear. She
■hook from the excitement of the
ichase and never noticed that the six-
teen aerodromones had been left far
Ibehlnd.
The Princess was hardly a hundred
|yarda behind the Eagle when she be-
«an to rise slowly. The distance was
diminished to fifty, twenty-five yards,
when something happened that opened
the eyee of the pursuer.
Napoleon made a dip, enforoed By
the power of the wings, so quickly
that the Princess had sped onward
peveral miles before they oould cheok
Hi Al*ht. Rosltta looked tack and
saw the great Baglq shoot forward,
with Its wings touching the smooth
water now and again, thus seeming to
give twice aa much speed. The stu-
dent was willing to learn and Imitated
Napoleon's action, getting on his trail
Just as he passed beneath him.
They quickly passed from the horl-
zon of the sixteen other aerodro-
mones. Napoleon waa again far In ad-
vance when he began to ascend rap-
idly. As he rose, be saw with satisfac-
tion the faint blue line of the Ameri-
can coast
The Princess was pressing him
closely, rising as he rose. The Eagle
slowed down and let them come near-
er, then he turned about and faced
them. They were rising, each trying
to gain in elevation. Rosltta cried to
Santos; "Why can’t we rise faster?”
"There are three of us and only one
of Napoleon.”
"Did you hear that, Sulamov?"
sharply said Rosltta. He bowed sub-
mlsslvely.
"Your ancestors were always ready
to die for their sovereign; are you?"
"I am!”
“Thank you!" She smiled at the
Russian and pointing to the side door
of the aerodromone, continued: "This
way, my boy, we are too heavy.”
Sulamov kissed her hand and
opened the door calmly. With a laat
ardent look, he jumped.
The Prtncesa leaped upward, gain-
ing rapidly on the Eagle. Rosltta
urged Santoa and watched Napoleon,
who was following every move of the
attacking Princess closely.
He could have dipped again and run
away, but that was not his game.
They almost touched, and the Prin-
cess Rosltta shouted through the
speaking tube; "Give up, Mr. Peace
President; you have no chance!"
Indeed, it seemed so; the larger bird
made a leap toward the Eagle that
was below her, but a twist of the
steering wheel saved him. Napoleon
was watching the east anxiously, and
Rosltta’s eyes were focused on Napo-
'eon. She felt sure that he was help-
lessly prolonging the surrender.
This dangerouB play went on until
Napoleon could see the widely extend-
ed fleet of aerodromones with his
naked eye. He dipped downward, and
stopped in the air, about two hundred
feet above the surface of Pamlico
Sound. There the Engle awaited the
Princess. As she made a desperate
rush for him, he escaped again, almost
by a miracle, then turned and darted
after the Princess madly, changing
from the pursued Into the pursuer.
They rose upward together and Napo-
leon waved a smiling sulute to the
princeBS.
Tho aerodromones of the latter were
approaching steadily. She seemed to
have forgotten them entirely In the
heat of the pursuit, while she was the
aggressor, hut now, when Napoleon
turned against her, she quickly turned
to the stylograph and gave orders to
her fleet to close In upon them, but
not to Interfere until it was necessary
for her safety.
Napoleon plainly heard the message
and waited until Bhe had broken con-,
nection, then he faced her machine
nnd unhurriedly pulled a lever that
was connected with the tube that had
been Intely attached to all his aerodro-
mones. A thick stream of white liquid
shot out and lunded squarely upon the
left wing of the Princess. The bird
trembled. Santos calmly turned on
the emergency dry battery and, like
a great wounded bird, the Princess
began to eettle downward. The white
stream was stopped, a deft turn of IJie!
wheel, a well-directed move and the
Engle slipped between the wings of
the Princess, and she was a prisoner.
Rosltta was as palo as death. The
terrible disappointment of losing,
when victory was so near, made her
faint. Then she remembered her fleet
and signaled orders quickly.
She had not noticed that Napoleon,
JuBt before he turned on the liquid
that had disabled her machine, had
hoisted a red signal, and a great fleet
of aerodromoneB rose from the coast
along North Carolina and Bllently
closed In on tho fleet of the enemy.
The formation of Pamlico Sound
made this maneuver easy and Napo-
leon had cleverly led RoBltta and her
fleet Into the trap. He turned hie
Eagle landward and, weighted as he
was, moved slowly away. His men
had been fully Instructed in regard to
their action and Whistler led them.
As soon as Santos realized what had
happened, he turned to the door and
opened It; "Chino, Rosltta, my wife, It
will be sweet to die together."
"Idiot 1 ” she shrieked.
He looked at her and knew. He
turned to Ills master, who waved a
friendly hand at him, and Bald aadly:
’’Napoleon, forgive mo. I was blind-
ed."
He jumped Into the sound and the
waters closed over him. Rosltta had
not oven glanced at him as ho fell. She
stepped Into his place In the dotfrway
and lmd her foot on the first rung of
the ladder that led to the top of the
machine when he touched the water.
Napoleon opened the door for her,
without aaylng a word.
When she wae In the upper machine
she stood looking at Napoleon, who
was awaiting her further action.
At last Bhe said: "With you I would
go down there." Then Bhe flushed and
an exqulBlte little smile appeared on
her face. "You devil of a man! You
have won again 1 What do you Intend
to do with me?”
He looked at her sadly as he replied
In a measured voice:
"I will make a queen of you.”
"Oh, thanks 1 That la kind. I pre-
sume you have selected a very beauti-
ful country?”
"Yea, Roeltta Roslny, a very beau-
tiful country. You will have every-
thing you need—It la a veritable Oats
dan of Eden.
looked toward her fleet Every oae of
ker aerodromones had been captured.,
They reached land. Napoleon called'
■p Whistler and, giving ordera regard-
ing the empty aerodromone that be
waa leaving on a sandbar, released it
from the electric clutches of the Eagle.
Then he flew up again, with Roaitta
sitting motionless and unseeing on the
bench. Sending the Eagle toward the
south, he turned on full speed.
The man who had outwitted his en-
emies was allent, watching the rich
country run backward under him. Nei-
ther spoke on the long journey south-
ward to the Garden of Eden.
CHAPTER XXIV.
Dawn.
X small house had been erected
near the Crystal. Lake. It had two
rooms and kitchfih, that was all; but
It had been pleasantly and well fur-
nished with everything a lone woman,
might want. When Napoleon assisted
Rosltta from the aerodromone he led
her into the pleasant living-room She!
followed him obediently, as If In
trance, seating berself In the chair
Indicated without a word.
This Is your future home, Rosltta,1
he said, simply.
She did not reply, but sat looking
out the window, at the clear lake and
the steep mountain sides that over-
shadowed the little valley forbidding-
ly. A strange Are shone in her eyes.
She stood up slowly and cautiously
and stepped to the window. She
looked out at the beautiful green fo-
liage and the blooming flowers for a
long time, and Napoleon did not dis-
turb her. Her actions commanded re-
spect
A Bmlle appeared on her face, a
smile that reminded Napoleon of his
own mother; It expressed mother
love, the most holy of all.
"See—eee how green the grass Is!
How blue the sky is! How mild the
air, and the water of the Logo dl Mag-
glore Is ns smooth ss a mirror.” She
beckoned to Napoleon. "Just look at
that sweet little glri, see how she runs
on the shore—she Is after a butter-
fly. Don't you see her, man! Don’t
you see her?" She gasped theBe last
words hoarsely and grasped Napole-
on’s arm. A nameless terror bad his
noble soul In Rb grip.
"Answer me, do you see her?” She
began to sob. "Ah, don't say no—say
you see her. She Is my own little girl.
She Is good and not like her mother.
She la good, I say! She must be good
to be happy.” She sobbed wildly.
Turning to Napoleon she screamed:
"Speak! Oh, speak to me, or I shall
go mad entirely.”
He took her hands In his and in a
mild voice said: "Rosltta, be quiet;
you don’t know what you are saying.”
She pushed him away. A wild look
came into her eyes.
lull nena: rou nave miiea me,
and I’ll kill you now!” Her hand
slipped Into her bosom and a short
gilt Venetian dagger glistened bright-
ly. She darted fprward blindly and
Just mlBsed Napoleon. Her dagger
struck the wall fiercely. The blade
brok« and fell with a sharp clink to
the floor. The next moment she faint-
ed In Napoleon's arms.
He carried her to the sofa and
brought fresh water to revive her.
For two long hours her soul trav-
eled through unknown regions where
there is neither time nor distance.
When she opened her eyes again sha
was not the Bume youthful, vivacious
Rositta. She had become old.
She did not speak for a long time,
and Napoleon had the patience to
await her pleasure, notwithstanding
his neglected duties at Washington.
At last she sat up and said weakly:
“My Son, Thou Shalt Be a Citizen of a
Happier and More Peeoeful Age.”
"Napoleon Edlaon, you have won. You
are strong; I am weak. The Queen
Rosltta Is dead. The only one I ever
truly loved, my little daughter, ie
dead, and now I can mourn the rest
of my life. You may go, Napoleon.
That kiss of youra on the roof at Hel-
goland—that kiss given as alms—Is
responsible for all I have done.” She
offered her hand. "Pleaso go; there
are many awaiting you. I want to
reBt In this solitude.”
Napoleon took her hand. "Good-by.
Should you need me, there la a Bpeclal
signal arrangement In the other room;
use It.” He left, and Bhe watched hla
form disappear In the dark night; The
man she had once feared, loved and
hated was gone, and, It wae strange,
but she found all these conflicting
emotions gone as well.
That was the laBt ever beard of tbs
once-famoue Princess Bchomburg-
Lltbow, the ambltlouB Queen of the
Air.
■he looked at bln in elan, then E“ route to Washington Napoleon
nne looked at blm tn alarm, than ^had wlth hl| BeD 0B
Whistler told him that hie Instruc-
tions had been carried out to the let-
ter end Sullivan told of the success-
ful capture of the four aerodromones
from the west
It waa ten o’clock In the morning
when he sighted the capital, and Con-
gress wae In session.
The newspapers had already de-
scribed the battle between the Eagle
and the Princess and the capture of the
whole aerodromone flotilla. Whistler
had reported to the proper authorities,
but no one knew what bad become of
the Princess Rosltta.
Loud shouts filled the chamber when
Napoleon came In. Representatives
left their chairs and, lifting him up,
carried him on their shoulders to his
chair. He stood there a moment and
the enthusiastic audience became
silent.
"Gentlemen! Representatives of tbs
United Republics of America!
“I have to tell you that the dangers
surrounding us, caused by the design-
ing and ambitious Princess von
Schomburg-Llthow, are dissipated for-
ever. Her fleet of aerodromones la In
my possession and will be disposed of
as you see lit.
"This act of force, committed by me
alone, was done in the interest of
peace, according to the twelfth chap-
ter of the international peace pactum,
that holds the president of the peace
committee responsible for peace be-
tween nations.
The manufacturing of aerodro-
mones la my exclusive privilege for
the next eeventeen years, according
to patents secured, and, since I be-
lieve this abortive attempt to crush
liberty will not be repeated, I take
pleasure In offering my sixty aerodro-
mones to the United Republics of
America, to be used In accordance
with arrangements to be made. I will
reserve the right of ownership and the
engagement of aeromen for the ma-
chines.”
An enthusiastic "hurrah!” sounded
and after quiet was restored Napoleon
continued:
The men captured on the Prlncese'
fleet are to be returned to their re-
apectlve countries and tried as con-
spirators against the world peace
committee and I have no doubt that
amicable relations will soon exist be-
tween all the natlonB.
“The United Republics of America
is a monument to Freedom and Peace.
These two conditions create satisfac-
tion, wealth and advancement of such
character that we are nearer the Al-
mighty, who created man in his own
image.”
Napoleon was Interrupted here by
an attendant, who slipped a small en-
velope Into his hand. It was ad-
dressed to him in his mother's well-
known handwriting. He tore it open,
ran through the lines and his face be-
came radiant with happiness. He
waved his hand toward the waiting
audience and without another word
quickly left the hall.
His erratic actions would have
caused uneasiness If his face had not
been so expressive of happiness. He
had hardly reached the exit when the
representatives cheered once again.
He waved his hand in acknowledg-
ment and dashed out.
He raced to the elevator that car-
ried him to Ills aerodromone and in
a few minutes he was on the roof of
the Crystal Palace. He quickly de-
scended to the apartment of Astra, his
wife.
His mother awaited him outside the
door; their embrace told much,
A minute later the great man, the
hero, the patriot, the Inventor, was
kneeling at the bedside of a smiling,
happy mother, murmuring broken
phrases of Joy at her well being.
At the mother’s request, with shak-
ing hands in fear of hurting him, he
raised the little, kicking boy and, as
he kissed hlB son, he said with wet
eyes:
My son, thou shalt be a citizen of
S happier and more peaceful age.”
• • » • •
There is little more to say.
That afternoon Napoleon looked
through the mall that had accumulat-
ed and found Count von Werdensteln’s
message addressed to Astra. He car-
ried It, together with other urgent let-
ters, to her. She asked him to read it
to her.
Your Ladyship: My secret service
agents have Informed me that the
PrinceBs Schomburg Llthow Is plan-
ning to overthrow the present peace-
ful balance that exists all over the
world.
"I was reared a man of arms and I
have been a believer in our glorious
traditions. It has taken a long time
for me to realize the blessings of
Equality, Liberty aud Fraternity, but
I have realized them at last.
"I regret that I have not the power
to crush the princess’ conspiracy, for
which I, personally, am to blame. On
account of my Inability to do this I
beg your ladyship to Inform your hon-
orable husband of the contents of this
letter. He Is the only one who can
check the uprising, and I hope this
will find him prepared.
For the future, I Intend to do all
I can to make the coming generation
s better and more contented one. I
Intend to try to follow the example
■et by the man whom I now appre-
ciate.
"In the hope that my warning will
reach you in good time and will be of
service to your ladyship, I remain,
with sincere regards,
”VON WERDBNSTEIN.”
1 am glad that a man like the
count has seen the light,” was Napo-
leon's simple comment when he bad
flnlshed reading the letter.
Astra's eyes rested lovingly on Na-
poleon, then wandered over to the
Irib In which their baby boy slept
They both felt the dawn of a bap
Mar age.
THE END.
QUARREL OVER WATER
RESULTS IN A MURDER
Bartlesville, Okla., Aug. 8.—U. E.
Morgan, charged with murder in a
state warrant, entered a ploa of “not
guilty" when arraigned in the court
of Theodore Hull, justice of the peace,
this morning. He was denied bond
and ordered committed to ja:l to
wait preliminary trial on August 13
at 2o’clock.
Morgan walked rapidly into tho
court room .accompanied by Smith
Lounsbury,'deputy sheriff. He was
attired in a blue shirt, dark trousers,
a light slouch hat and was carrying
a newspaper. A several days' grdVth
of beard gave him the appearance of
being a much older man than he is;
he being scarcely past 35 yoars aid.
The warrant was read to the ac-
cused to which he answered prompt
ly “Not guilty,” and was ready to re-
turn to jail. Morgan did not appear
to bo unoasy when the court stated
he could not bo admitted to bond. It is
likely his attorney will make an ef-
fort to have him released on bond af-
ter his preliminary hearin. Morgan
will sot up a plea of self defense when
his case comes to trial before a jury
in the district court.
Ten days ago he and his alleged vic-
tim Arthur McCullough, lived neigh-
bors in the Hogshooter district. They
wore both employed in the oil fields
The men had always been friendly
and the first time they quarreled was
on the evening of the trouble, when
McCullough received two knife
wounds which resulted in his death
westerday morning. Both families
had been using water from the same
well which is located on property on
which Morgan lived. The water begun
to get low and it was feared th» well
would go dry. Morgan told McCul-
lough that he believed he (McCul-
lough) would have to get water else-*
whore, to which McCullough obj?c-
ted.
On the evening of the trouble Mc-
Cullough is said to have gone to the
well for a pail of water. The first
time he is said to have carried a shot-
gun. He returned a soeond time ac-
companied by his son. Morgan de-
clares that McCullough said he had
come over to settle the trouble. The
fight followed. McCullough’s son arid
Morgan's wife were eyewitnesses to
the trouble and will be important wit-
nessos when the case comes to trial.
