It was successful in France, though the republican government es- tablished there under Louis Napoleon! was converted by bim into an froperial one. In Germany the effort was a fallure, and the lenders who were able to get away became citizens of other countries, some finding a bome in the Onited States. One day the government of Prussia received information that Carl Weber, a young man who had been especially active as a leader in the revolution, was intending to board a train in one of its stops after leaving Berlin with a view to escaping through Belgium. The chief of police was notified to take mensures to arrest him. The chief arranged with the railroad officials that any one boarding the| train should be put into a certain com- partment, where government agents had been placed. These officials, be- ing satisfied that Weber was in the compartment, were to arrest him. Now, this man Weber had been un- der the eye of the government for some time, but they had been unable to pab him. Several times they had arrested some one who was supposed to be the revolutionist, and it was dis- covered that the wrong person had been taken. Indeed, he had achieved a reputation for slipperiness, which induced the chief of police on this no- tification of his intention to leave Prus- sla to take every precaution against deception. In the first place he disguised his men on the train so that they should not be recognized as officials. One was a wrinkled old man, one was made | up to look like an English duke, uanoth- er a young fop. These persons left Berlin in a compartment by them- selves. There were three of them, all well armed, for it wuas known that Weber was a desperate man, who would fight to the death. At that early day there were not the ! large number of persons traveling | there are now. Rallronds were new, ! and a car resembled several stage- | coaches spliced together. In the com partment in which the government of- ! ficlals traveled there was room for | elght persons, four riding forward and | four backward. Therefore there was | room for five besides the officials. At i the first stntion a man was put in with | them. They scrutinized bim, but shook | their heads. Weber was very young, ,and this man was past fifty. His | beard was stubbly and gray—a sure ! sign that he was approaching old age. At the next station a young girl was conducted to the compartment. See ing no one in it but men, she declared that it was not a proper place for her to travel. Since the orders were to place every one boarding the train in that compartment, the railway officlal insisted on her entering it or remaining behind. The latter course would in- volve waiting over a day, for at that time there were very few trains. The young lady. therefore, with apparent reluctance entered. She held in one hand a portmantean, in the other a bouquet of lowers. The official made up for a fop gullantly alighted, took her portmanteau (she held on to her bouquety and handed her into the coach, The next stop was some distance away, and all trains were very slow | The young lady showed so much em | barrassment at being shut up with a | lot of men that he who was made up . for a Britisher, in feigned broken Ger- man, assured ber that she might con- sider herself under his protection, though there was no need of it, for the other two men in the compartment were respectiable persons. | This seemed to relieve the young wo- , man's fears. To show her apprecla- tion ot his kindness she took a Hower from her bouquet und gave It to him He held it to bis nose and. finding the odor delicious. continued to sniff it The old man settled himself for a nap or pretended to do su. while the fop ogled the girl. Seeing hin look covet ously at her bouquet, she took out a rose uand gave it to him. By this time the Britisher had become drowsy and. leaning his head back on the cushion. fell asleep. “Yen do not appreciate the perfume of the rose. herr,” sald the fraulein. *“I'ry this one.” She drew forth another and held it to his nose herself, looking | into his eyes intently and with a pleas- | ant smile on her lips. The man began | to feel drowsy and, suspecting that ! something in the rose was affecting bim, endeavored to put it away with his hand. But the fraulein smilingly resisted, and he passed into slumber. her smiling face fading before him. At this juncture the old man, who was only dozing and that paturally. | opened his eyes and. seeing one of his companions asleep with his head on | the cushion and the other sinking into unconsciousness, looked at the fraulein suspiciously. “Look!™ she cried, pointing out through the window, at the same time assuming a frightened expression. The man looked and, seeing nothing | of importance, turned again to see him- self confronted by a weapon in the hands of the girl. Advancing toward | him, she pressed the muzzie of her pistol against his forehead and pressed her bouquet to his nose. He must el- | | ther get a bullet in his brain or go to sleep. He chose the latter course. | | When the train reached the next sta- | | tion the guard reported that the three men in it were asleep and the fraulein was missing. Round Combs fow Children.

What troubled Burroughs most was a fear that his securities might have been de stroyed. They were in the keeping of { bis gnardian, and his guardian was among those who were missing afser the fire fiend had satisfied its hunger. A soon as the ruius had cooled Bur- roughs began a search for his fortune 1t was not found at the safety de posit company where his lnwyer. Sam uel Coolidge, bad kept valuables. The office safe had tumbled from the fourth story of the building. and ev- erything in it hud been burned to pow- der. These two incidents taken to- gether convinced Burrougbs that he had lost his fortune, for the securities were not of the registered kind, but in the nature of a banknote. At any rate, it he recovered any of his inheritance he could do so only after a long proc- ess. As soon as Burroughs was convinced of this he went to his fancee and of- fered to release her. She wept and moaned andl vowed that she could nev- er love any one else, but did not give any definite answer to his offer. But when a mouth had passed and her lov- er was hard pressed for money to meet his immediate expenses she turned him down. We who had attended our friend’s bachelor dinner felt that he had made a narrow escape. Miss Eth. erling, the lady in question, had in her own right something like $20,000. ’l‘hls‘ gave her an fncome of but §1,000 a year, and she needed much more than that to enable her to keep up her po- SCHEDULE IN EFEECT JANUARY 1IST, 1915 | —Subject to Change Without Notice— Southward. .No. 83. 123 p.m. 9 30 5 45 a.m. STAT ATLANTIC COAST LINE ward.
