CHAPTER  XVIII. Mr. Blithers In Graustark.
IMMEDI.VTKLY upon n^coivlng her lottf.T JCohmJ Ront for Quinno.x and Gniircni, who were stopping at a hotel ni^arby.
"I ani reaily to proceed to Edelweiss, my friends," .'»ild ho. "Ml.'j.s Guile has departed. Will you book uceommoda- tloos on tlicr earliest iralii for lioiue?"
"I havo already secn-io that, high¬ ness," said Gourou calndy. "We leave at 6 tiiiti evening. Count Qulnnox has wired the prime mlnl.ster that you will arrive ia^iMdwelss at 3 ttimorrov att- emoonv (JDo'^illlng."
"You knew timt she had goa^r*
"I happened to be In the NOrdbahn- hof when she boarded the train at midnight," replied the baron, un¬ moved.
The prince was thoughtful, his brow clouding with a troubled frown. "1 suppose I shall now have to face my people with the confession that will confirm their worst fears. I may as well say to you, my friends, that I mean to make her my wife even though It costs me my kingdom. Do you think they will accept her as—as their prince.ss ?" cried Robin hopefully.
"I submit that it will first be neces¬ sary for you to Induce Miss Guile to accept you as her prince," said Gou- rou mildly. "That doe.sn't appear to be settled at present."
He took alarm. "What do you mean? Yonr remark has a sinister sound.    Has anything transpired to"—
"She has dlsappeiired, highness, quite effectually. That I.s all that I can say," said Gourou, and Uobin was con.=cious of a sudden chill and the rush of cold moisture to his brow. "But let us prepare to confront an even more :^ubstanlial condition. A pro.spective father in law Is descend¬ ing upon our land. He Ls groping in the dark, and he Is angry. He has lost a daughter .somewhere in the wilds of Europe, and he realizes that he cannot hope to become tho grand- fathi'r i^f princen unless he can pro¬ duce a mother for them. At pre.sent he seems to be desperate. Have I told you that he wa.s in this city last night? He arrived at the Bristol a few hours prior to the significant de¬ parture of Misa ("ruile. Moreover, he has chartered a special train and is leaving today for Edelweiss. Count Qulnno.x luis taken the precaution to advise the prime minister of his ap¬ proach and has inipreKs<»d upon him the inir>ortance of decrying any sort of popnlar d*?monstration .against him on his arrival. Romano rejKsrts that the ptKjpIe are in im an.siry mood. 1 would suggest that you prepare, In a way, to placate them, now that Miss Guile has dropped out of sight."
rt must not be supposed for an In¬ stant that the city of Edelweiss and tho court of Graustark were unimpress¬ ed by the swift approach and abrupt arrival of Ml. Blithers. His coming had been heralde-i for days In advance. The city was rudely expectant, the court uneasy.
When the 8i)eclal train pulled lirto the station Mr. Blithers turned to hla wife ^nd said:
"Cheer up, Lou. This isn't a fu¬ neral."
"But there Ls quite a mob out there," she said, peeri'ug through the car wln- doiw. "How can we be sure that tbey are friendly?"
"Don't you worry," said Mr. Blithers confidently. "They are not likely ic throw rocks at the gooee that lajri the golden eae."
iiii) crowa was Dig, Immobile, surly. It lined tne sidewalks In tho vicinity of (he station and stared with curi¬ ous, half closed eyes at the portly capitalist and his party, which, by the way, was rendered somewhat impos¬ ing in size by augmentation in the shape of lawyer.s from Paris and Lon¬ don, clerk,; and stenographers from the Paris office, to say nothing of a lady's maid, a valet, a private secre¬ tary and a doctor.
IIo was .sonif what amazed and dis¬ gruntled by the absence of silk liat ambassadors from the castle, with Words of welcome for him on his ar¬ rival. There was a plentiful supply of i)olicemen, but no cabinet ministers. lie was on the point of censuring Ills secretary for not making it clear to the government that he was clue to arrive at such .and such an hour and minute when a d.apper young man in uniform—he couldn't tell whether he was a p.'itrolraan or a captain—canK; up and saluted.
"I .mil William W. P.litliers." said the multiiiiillliuiaire shiirj)ly.
"I am an ofTir.ial guide and inter¬ preter, K.ir," announced tho young man suavely.
"Not necessary - not necessary at all," exploil^^d Mr. Blithers. "Any ono desiring to spealc to me will liave to do it In Englksh." He then marched out to the carriages.
Ho was in some doubt at first, but as hiac carriage passed swtftlji. be¬ tween the rtarlng ranlis on tho side¬ walks he began to doff hi.s hat and bow to the li^^ht and left. His smiles were returned by tho multitude, and so his progress was more or less of a triumph after ail.
At the Regengetz he found addi¬ tional cause for Irritation. No one was there to receive him except the Ingratiating manager of the estab¬ lishment.
The manager rubbed hla hands and smiled. "Thla Is one of our gala days, Mr. Blithers. You could not have ar¬ rived at a time more opportune. I have taken the precaution to reserve chairs for you on the veranda. The procession will pass directly in front of the hotel on Its way to Castle ave¬ nue.
"What procession?" demanded Mr. Blithers.
"The prince is returning today from his trip around the world," said the manager.
"^e ought to have been back long ago," said Mr. Blithers wrathfully and mopped his brow with a hand rendered unsteady by a mental con¬ vulsion. He was thinking of his hat lifting experience.
True to schedule, the procession passed the hotel at 5.
Prince Robin sat In the royal coach, and his brown, handsome, manly face was aglow with .smiles. Instead of  a  silk   hat   he   lifted  a   gay   and
j    "Oh, what u remarkably handsome, I manly boy he is. Will," sighed Mrs. Blithor.s.
Mr. Blithers nodded his head proudly. "Ho certainly is. I'll bet my head that Maud is crazy about I him already. She can't help it, Lou. That trip on the Jupiter was a god¬ send. We'll have plain sailing from now on, Lou." I Mr. Blitliors indeed experienced i plain .sailing for the ensuing twenty hours. It was not until Just before ho set forth at 2 the next afternoon to attend by special appointment a meetin.g of .tlw cabinet in the council chamber ,at the castle that he en¬ countered the first symptom of squalls ahead.
He had sent his secretary to the castle with a brief note suggesting an early conference. It naturally would be of an Informal character, as there was no present business before them. The contracts had already been signed by the government and by his authorized agents. So far as the loan was concerned there was nothing more to be said.
There wa.'j a distinct cloud on the financial hori.-;on, however, a vague shadow at present, but prophetic of storm. It wa! perfectly clear to the nobles thai when these bonds ma¬ tured Mr. Blithers would bo in a po¬ sition to exact payment, and as they matured in twelve years from date he was; likely to be pretty much alive and kicking when the hour of reck¬ oning arriverl.
Mr. Blither.! was in the nvxid to be amiable. lie anticipated considerable pleasure in vl;-itln.i< the ancient halls of his prospective grandchildren.
The flr.<t f lio<;k to the placidity of Mr. Blithers came with the brief note In reply to hi.s request for an infor¬ mal conference. The lord chamber¬ lain curtly informed him that the cabinet would be in session at 2 and would bo pleased to grant him an au- dlenco of half an hour, depending on his promptness In appearing.
Mr. Blithers was not used to being granted audiences. He consoled him¬ self, however, with the thought that matters would not always be as they were at present. There would be a decided change of tune later on.
It would be folly to undertake the depletion of Mr. Blithers' first im¬ pressions of the castle and its glo¬ ries. To begin with, he lost no small amount of his assurance when he discovered that the great gates In the wall surrounding the park were guarded by resplendent dragfxms who demanded his "pass." After the offi¬ cer in cliarge had Inspected the lord chamberlain's card as if he had never seen one before, he ceremoniously in¬ dicated to a warden that the gates were to be opened. There was a great clanking of chains, tho drawing of Iron bolts, the whirl of a windlass, and the ponderous gates swung slow¬ ly ajar.
Mr. Blithers caught his breath— and from that instant until he found himself cros.sing the great hall in the wake of an attendant delegated to conduct him to tho council chamber his sen.sations are not to be de.scribed. It is only necessary to say that he was in a reverential condition, and that is saying a great deal for Mr. Blithers.
He was r^liered into a chamiier, at the oppfisite end of which was a largo, Imposing door—closed. Beside this door stood a slim, erect figure in the red, blue and gold uniform of an officer of the castle guard. As Mr. Blithers approached thi.s rigid figure he recognized a friend, and a warm glow pervaded his heart. There could be no mistaking the smart mustache and supercilious eyebrows. It was Lieutenant Hank.
"How do y<iu do?" .said Mr. Blith¬ ers. "Glad to sec you again." Ills voice sounded unnatural. He extend¬ ed his hand.
Dank ga-se him a ceremonious sa¬ lute, bowed slightly, but without a smile, and t'.en threw open the door.
"Mr. Blit!.. rs, my lords," he an¬ nounced, and .-itood aside to lot th» stranger In a strange land pass within.

far from Immaculate conception in straw; instead of a glittering uni¬ form ho wore a suit of blue serge and a peculiarly American tie of crimson hue. He looked more like a popular athlete returning from conquests abroad than a prince of ancient line- ago. But the crowd cheered itaelf hoarse over this bright faced young¬ ster who rode by in a coach of gold and brandished a singularly unregai chapeau.
His alert eyea were searching the crowd along tho street. In the bal conies and windows with an eager Intensity. He was looking for th<' sweet familiar face of the loveliest girl on earth. If she were there he wondered what her thoughts might be on beholding tho humble R. Schmidt In the rolo of a royal prince receiving the laudations of the lov¬ ing multitude!

A week ago the police received word that .McRoberts was at tho home of one of his daughters and had threatened to kill her and then himself. He left' the house without doing any harm, and subsequently was located on Le- hictoii .Street by Patrolmen Bonstein and Stem and placed under arrest.
When the case was called McRob- ert's daughter denied ttiat she had told the officers that her father had threatened her. Other relatives also spoke a good word for McRoberts, who was described as a hard work ing,  temperate man
