Oxford, poor fellow! although realizing
that his friend was about to embark upon a
very crazy and cowardly enterprise, was
yet unable to resist the extraordinary influ
ence which this strange man wielded over
him, and, step by step, yielded to the mighty
will of the latter; until, once more, Fairfax
had a most zealous advocate in Richard.
About noon, with a lazy gape, Fairfax re
marked :
“ Let us go out and watch for those
‘heavy villains.’ Thejf must be near at
hand.”
There soon appeared three strange men,
Carelessly sauntering down the road. So
completely had they disguised thern
selv6s that the two watchers were uncer
tain as to their identity. However, as they
approached nearer, il was not difficult to
recognize the tones of each voice.
The arch-conspirator took the two seamen
aside and enlightened them as to the part
they were to play. They appeared to be
wide-awake characters, capable of a hazard
ous feat of any kind. They readily entered
into the spirit of the occasion and consid
ered the affair as a jolly kind of a lark.
Meanwhile Richard —who had been thor
oughly instructed—in mysterious and melo
dramatic tones, was initiating his valet into
the nature of the duties which were to fall
upon him.
After some time spent in writing, Fairfax
examined the vehicle and found it in excel
lent condition. The harness also seemed
strong. One trace was a little worn, and,
with an extra tug, might give way. A
piece of stout cord quickly remedied this
defect. The horse appeared to have entirely
recovered from his long journey of the
night before.
One thing the anxious observer did not
like. A heavy black bank of clouds was
rising in the southwest—a low, dilatory
mass of vapor that clearly betokened an ap
proaching storm. Still, ho thought it would
scarcely interfere with the fulfillment of his
expectations and plans.
He went to the road-side to watch. Be
tween three and four, he saw, away in the
distance, up the road, a carriage approach
ing. It contained Dimitri and Catherine, en
route, no doubt, to make preparations for Na
talie, who then could not be far behind them.
His heart began to quicken its beats
when he distinguished a horse gallop
ing down the highway. Although straiu-

in? his eyes he could see hut one,
ana on that steed rode the Princess.
He held his breath as she dashed by like
hf' wind, both steed and rider carrying
themselves superbly.
Again he felt the same inexplicable mis-
Rumgs, the same mysteriously prophetic
warning, and again he flung aside tho
emotion. The deed was begun and, were

care,ul, and he resolved to spare
.10 pains in taking every precaution possible
to ensure success.
The Princess Natalie was putting the
finishing touches upon her picture. On the
morrow’ she expected to leave her beloved
village and summer home for Lake Mag
giore where her chief companion, a
brother, scarcely more than one year older
than herself, hail been accustomed to spend
with her his summers.
A little more than two years previous to
the time when this narrative opens, oh the
morning of her birthday, he had, among
other gifts, presented his sister with a love
ly palette-knife, just as he was departing on
a short hunting expedition into the valley.
But before going he took his seat at the
piano and began playing the “Addio.” (This
song w’as a great favorite with both Natalie
and himself.)
Aroused by the many evidences of her
brother’s love and the fact that it was her
birthday-she scarcely knew by w’hat, it
seemed almost prescience—she went over
to his side and sang as she rarely had sung
lie fore. Otto was so much moved when the
song was ended that he put his arms about
her, and kissed her “Good-bye.” As the
w’ords of the song have it, it proved “Good
bye forever.”
Two hours later, in headlong chase after a
stag, he galloped Ids horse down a ravine.
The exhausted beast lost his footing and
stumbled, throwing its master headlong
against a rock. The unfortunate youth
lived but a few moments.
The shock to the Princess was even
greater than might have been anticipated.
Returning from a horseback ride, while gal
loping at full speed, as was her wont, and
laughing gaily at some remark of her old
governess, whom her affection still retained
more as companion and chaperon than in
structress, she suddenly turned a curve in
the road and saw before her a rude, im
provised litter, borne on the shoulders of
four men. A fifth was leading two saddle
horses. A figure covered with a mantle
lay upon the litter.
The impetuous speed of Medji carried his
rider nearly up to the party, ere she could
cheek him. As he came to a standstill,
Natalie recognized the men and also her
brother’s horse. For a moment she doubted
the evidence of her senses, and looked
again.
With overwhelming force the horrible
truth burst upon her. She leaped to the
ground, rushed up to the litter, tore the
mantle from the face, and saw her only
brother lying pale and cold in the sleep of
death.
“O Otto, my brother dead!” she cried, and
swooned away.
For weeks afterward she lay, hovering
oetwixt life and death, in a wild delirum of
fever. All her physicians looked for death.
But one sunny afternoon a strolling harper
chanced to play under her window a
peculiarly sweet air. In the midst of her
ravings she stopped, and seemed to be
listening to the u Addio,” and lay quiet a
long time after the melody had died away,
tailing finally into a refreshing slumber,
from which she awoke in her right mind.
As the Princess grew stronger, the old
scenes proving painful to her, she asked to
be removed to others; and when she once
more looked upon the fair waters of Mag
gior©. it was at the request of her parents.
CHAPTER X.
look! there it comes!
As she sat painting upon this eventful
afternoon, when her expected companion,
Lydia, was riding leisurely upon a fruitless
errand to Dol, Natalie let her thoughts re
vert to their conversation of the two pre
vious days.
Then, of course, she thought of Fairfax.
What a sad, but striking face he had! Who
was he? What troubled him so much ? She
was convinced something did. Why had he
started so and colored when he saw her
coming down the staircase? Would she
ever see him again? He interested her;
Lydia, too, took such an interest in him.
Why had she, herself, immediately
thought of that song, when she cast her
eyes upon him? Why, too, did she always
think of it in connection with him? That
song was peculiarly and only hers and
Otto’s. What right had this man to it?
And yet it seemed his, too, as much as
theirs. Yes, and Lydia had said he had
been much disturbed as he listened to it,
and had remarked that it was interwoven
with bis fate. Perhaps—she w r as almost
certain of it—her lost knife would return
through him.
In this ingenuous and child-like manner
she mused, zealously painting all the time.
Suddenly the voice of Dimitri aroused
her. He pointed significantly to the storm
slowly gathering in the south. Her time
piece indicated half-past live o’clock. The
storm couldn’t possibly break for at least an
hour an a half yet. She made the best of
her opportunity; and at a quarter past six
the finishing touch was laid upon the can
vas. Mounted on Medji, she turned to
ward the view and waved her hand,
saying:
“Adieu! adieu! Medji, this is our last,
my fleetest. To-morrow we go.”
For a distance of several hundred rods
from the main road the cliff road ran in a
perfectly straight direction.
Just as Natalie gained the point where the
highway came in sight, she th ught that
she caught sight of a figure which darted
backward from the center of the road and
disappeared from view on the left; but, see
ing nothing more, she concluded her eyes
had deceived her.
A shrill whistle pierced the quiet air.
This time she could not be mistaken. What
did it mean i Probably some huntsman call
ing his dogs.
When arrived at the main road she
glanced up and down it, but saw nothing un
usual.
A huntsman—undoubtedly he who had
just blown the whistle—and an old farmer
were earnestly engaged in conversation.
Beyond them were some carters coining
down the road. These were the only per
sons in sight.
When she came to hqr favorite pool not a
soul was to be seen there, either.
But, on leading Medji toward the rock
from which she was wont to mount, she
perceived an aged woman bending under a
heavy bundle of faggots. This figure had
so timed its approach that it reached the
rock as Natalie did. The woman, who
seemed to be of a very great age, curtsied,
and in a cracked, tremulous voice addressed
the Princess. So remarkable and interest
ing did this creature appear that Natalie
forgot the oncoming storm, and began to
question her with regard to her life and
welfare. Feebly putting down the bundle,
the trembling and palsied old thing told a
pitiful tale that stirred Natalie's compas
sion. Drawing out her purse, the latter be
y need a generous gift upon the poor soul, *
who thereupon took the hands of her bene
factress. and, pressing them to her lips, cov
ered them with kisses.
Nat a Lie gazed in mingled amusement and
compassion, passively allowing the pitiable
creature her way. She did not observe the
sharp eves cautiously peering out from be
hind the huge oak back of her, nor the fig
urge that lightly bounded to the stone. But
she felt, the iron hand that caught her in its
relentless grasp, and the gag that effectual
ly choked, at its beginning, her shriek for
help.
The Princess struggled fiercely to escape,
and even dragged her two assailants for
some distance from the rock; but the old
woman, who suddenly straightened her
bent form, and miraculously regained her
strength, held the two small han s of the
girl as in the grasp of an iron vice, while
the other flung a cloth over her head. The
fumes of the powerful chemical with which
it was saturated, combined with the fright
ful shock, soon rendered her unconscious.
Fairfax watched from a distance the whole
scene in an agony of remorse. Even he,
stern man. could not but keenly feel the un
deserved and cruel torture he was giving
an innocent girl, all to gratify an insane
THE PRINCESS STRUGGLED FIERCELY,
whim. But that resistless will forbade the
slightest interference. The deed had been
planned, and nothing # short of his own
death could prevent its execution.
In impressing upon the seaman the neces
sity of observing every precaution to obtain
success, he had added, with an oath:
“If a hair of her head is harmed, your
blood be upon your own heads.”
The counterfeit peasant woman lightly
picked up the unconscious Princess, and
hastened toward the carriage with his love
ly burden. The other seaman followed
with Medji, who had been standing quietly
by, during this scene. Fairfax blew his
whistle as the signal of release to Oxford
and to Roger, the outposts on either side of
the pool.
The latter met with but one wayfarer—a
farmer residing in that neighborhood -and
him he easily detained. But poor Oxford
had his hands full in endeavoring to sus
tain an exciting conversation with an obsti
nate Old farmer and a half-dozen stupid
wagoners, en route to St. Brieux with pro
duce for the morrow’s market. He blessed
Heaven when the whistle relieved his ago
ny, and, cleverly turning the conversation,
left the peasants to themselves and they
rode on, disputing with each other.
Dick leisurely stalked into the woods, and,
hiding among the trees, awaited the pass
ing by of Dimitri and Catherine. When
both the servants and carters had gone
quite out of sight he ran into the grove
where Fairfax and the men were concealed.
Medji stqpd there, surmounted by a man’s
saddle. The Princess’ saddle had been
taken off and placed in the buggy. She her
self lay on the grass, pale and moaning.
Dick, who, among his other accomplish
ments, possessed a slight smattering of
medicine, agreed with Fairfax that her con
dition was only a momentary affair. As she
seemed to be regaining consciousness, Fair
fax coolly asked his friend to give her some
water. She drank without urging, but was
allowed only a swallow or two.
“She must quench her thirst with this,”
said the imperturbable leader, with a grim
look on his face, as he gave Dick a small
glas£ that he had filled from a phial con
cealed in his coat-pocket. She readily and
gratefully drank all of its soothing contents
and quickly fell back in a heavy slumber.
“Pick her up, Dick; put her into the car
riage and drive. I will ride Medji,” was the
sharply uttered command. The other did
as ordered; while the valet and seaman set
out on foot to the coast, distant about four
miles.
Fairfax and Oxford made as rapid progr
ress as possible. The storm was about to
break and did break ere they reached their
destination. But, thanks to the rubber
apron and excellent care of the hitherto
clumsy Richard, even the lovely face and
brow of the unconscious Princess were wet
by scarcely a drop. Fairfax was drenched
to the skin.
The lightning flashed vividly .and the
thunder- roared so frightfully that both
Medji and the other horse reared and
plunged in terror. Fairfax, ever on the
alert, managed to prevent their running
away, and finally subdued their fright. The
darkness would have been intense had it
not been relieved by the continual flashes
of lightning.
Spurred on by the storm to still greater
action, the excited man galloped forward
with impetuous speed toward the coast.
He had once or twice before been there,
and remembered an old fish-house that
stood near the shore. Hurrying thither, he
discovered a dry spot inside, spread out the
blankets, and told Dick to lay the Princess
upon them. And there she slept quietly and
sweetly, wholly oblivious to the war of the
elements and the tumult that was raging m
the hearts of her guilty abductors?, who
looked at their victim and each other with
remorseful consciences.
A large, rocky island was situated about
half a mile off the shore. In stormy weath-
A LARGE BOAT WAS SEEN APPROACHING.
cr this afforded an excellent barrier against
the high seas of the Channel. The two men
continually glanced out upon the harbor
thus formed, watching for the electric light
of the "Namovna.” Uther 'vessels were an
chored in the bay, and all displayed lights.
But Fairfax knew that the “Namovua’s”
light would far outshine them all.
The rain meanwhile continued to pour ir<
torrents: the wind blew with frightful vio
lence. while the lightning and thunder made
night hideous. They had built a little fire
in the hut. It, at least, served to dry their
wet garments and, to keep the girl from be
coming chilled. About half-past eight the
valet—who also was familiar with that por
tion of the coast—appeared with the two
seameu. 1 hey were soaked to the skin, and
gathered hastily about the fire.
Perhaps ten minutes later, the lights of
the “Namovua” gleamed brightly over the
tossing waves. The yacht steamed slowly
around the island, as if feeling her way.
The storm now to moderate. The
wind finally ceased altogether; and the
thunder sounded more and more distant.
One by one the stars appeared, and the
moon came up and lit the waters of the sea.
A huge boat was seen approaching. Fair
fax had so accurately described to the cap
tain the point where he must touch that the
helmsman steered directly toward the old
fish-house.
Dick and one of the seamen lifted the
sleeping girl. Fairfax arranged in the
stem a place where to lay her down, and
the docile Medji w r as led into the bow of the
boat, which, according to Fairfax's orders,
was the largest the captain could find.
“ Good-bye, Dick. Write me. Here’s my
address,” was all the American said to his
friend. The weight of his offense began to
oppress him, and he did not dare to look
Oxford in the face.
“ Thank you, Roger,” added he, slipping
several five-pound notes into the latter’s
hand.
“Now pull away, captain,” and the boat
shot off over the sparkling billows towards
the graceful yacht that rode at anchor a
quarter of a mile from the shore.
In horrified and helpless silence Oxford
and his valet stood gazing after it. They
saw the boat reach the “Namovna,” watched
that vessel swing about, beheld the water
boil behind her stern, and finally viewed
her disappearing behind the island.
“My God! What have I done!” said Dick,
as he heaved a great sigh and broke the
silence. “It can’t be undone now.”
“Roger,” said he, with scared, white face
and turning to that frightened and trembling
attendant, “whatever happens, never
breathe a word about this to any mortal
soul. It may cost us our lives.”
Master and servant then drove directly
to Dol, where Roger returned the vehicle
and mare to their rightful owner, who, ap
parently, had no suspicion as to the part his
property had been playing in a very ques
tionable transaction. The Englishmen then
took the train to Paris, arriving there about
nine o’clock the next morning.

A Most Remarkable Case of Scrofula and
Rheumatism.
I have a little boy twelve years old
whose knees have been drawn almost
double and his joints are perfectly stiff
and has been in this condition over three
years, unable to walk. During that time
the medical board of Loudon county ex
amined him and pronounced hisMisease
scrofula and prescribed but no benefit
ever derived. I then used a much adver
tised preparation without benefit. Three
weeks ago he became perfectly helpless
and suffered dreadfully.
A friend who had used B. B. B. adver
tised its use. He has used one bottle and
all pain has ceased and he can now walk.
This has been pronounced a most won
derful action, as his complaint had baf
fled everything. I shall continue to use
it on him.
