f THE RED CHANCELLOR. A ROMANCE, By SIR WILLIAM MAGNAY, Bart., Author of "The Heiress of the Season," "The Man-Trap," The Pride of Life," &c. CHAPTER XXXIII.-Continued I An Ominous Visit.. "At that time. But the time is past. Surely it was inconceivable that you really wished her kept alive. Who could have foreseen what you have just told me, the secret mar- riage of Prince Theodor? I "lhat is all no business of yours," the Chancellor returned, with a, momentary lapse from his usual bland manner to a snear that was almost brutal. "When I saved your neck from the gallows-rope, it was on the under- standing that you should yield me implicit obedience, that the life I gave you was to do my will. You are not required to think for yourself, and you had best beware how you take upon yourself to do so. Let me remind you that thait rope with the ugly knot in it still dangles. Enough! I do not trouble to concern myself with your motives—oh, do not protest" —for the other had made a depre- cating gesture—"I am no fool either, and know men do not thwart my will for nothing-for nothing. So! And the girl is dead. She is dead?" Such a searching look, so fierce, so threaten- ing, so piercing, that I wondered how the Count had nerve to answer quietly. "Three days ago." "Ha! And buried—where?" "In the wood, by the grave of Herr Pfarrer Gerrsdorff. If your Excellency wishes to be satisfied-" "I am satisfied, mein Graf," Rallenstem said sharply, "that you have played me a knavish trick; and I know not yet that it has been with impunity. Recollect that an unnecessary crime is the worst of blunders." "Not so unnecessary, Excellency," the Count protested as the other tossed off a glass of wine as dismissing the subject. "One of my reasons for the haste by which I regret to have offended you was thiat our meddling English- man has been here." Rallenstein nodded. "I know it. Now there, my dear Count-" There was significance enough in the aposiopesis to make me shudder. The Count laughed; he was evidently beginning to feel easier. "We made a good attempt," he replied grimly. "But the fellow wriggled out of our hands somehow. Bleisst says he must be own brother to the devil himself." The conversation, if flattering, had become less momentous. I had heard enough; and the thought of Strode urged me to retreat while I could do so with safety. I slipped back to the inner hall, and thence found my way to the entrance of the long passage. As I was hurrying along this, I suddenly came into oolUsion with some one, and next instant was seized very prettily by the throat. Luckily the pressure left just room enough to allow me to £ <e £ out the word "Strode" when to ray doable relief the fingers relaxed, and the Englishman's voice said-. "A million apologies, my dear fellow, only I had to make sure. I was coming after you as the love scene appeared to have lasted long enough. Hope I haven't hurt you?" It was no place for conversation, and it was not until we were safely through the trap- door that I stayed to tell what, I had heard. "You don't think the girl has come to any .arm?" Strode inquired as we began to grope our way outwards. I have my fears about it. If this visit of Rallenstein's has taken the Count by surprise, there is no telling to what extremities panic may have driven him. On the other hand. he may simply have hidden her away more securely. He said ske had been murdered three days ago." "The black scoundrel!" "Whereas we know she was alive this afternoon. I have hope there." And that is the most likely thing to have happened. I'd stake my life on hers up to now. Only there is no time to be lost, if we have to take this devil's den by assault to- morrow. Let's hope force won't be necessary," I said. "It would be simple madness, however justifiable. Much will depend on the length of Rallenstein's stay." That won't be long," Strode replied con- ndently. "Put yourself in the old Jaguar's place and ask yourself how long you'd feel inclined to stay in that rural Chamber of Hor- rors. So discussing the chances of the situation, we at length reached tke entrance, and with- out further incident returned to our inn. CHAPTER XXXIV. I We Outstrip Our Fortune I Next morning I packed a small valise and paid the landlord, telling him we were going on a shooting expedition to a district some twenty miles off. whence the time of our return might be uncertain. Then we set off for Carlzig. Our first business there was to buy a carriage and a pair of fast horses. This was not an easy matter, and it was some hours before we found just what we wanted. But at last we got hold of two good strong- winded ajiimals and a serviceable light car- riage, somewhat like an old-fashioned caleche, our pretext being that we intended them for a driving tour through the oountry. We then laid in a stock of provisions, bought another revolver each. with a good supply of cartridges, and having pro- vided ourselves with the necessary tools for the removal of the baITS, we were ready. We had an early dinner, and afterwards drove quiet,ly out of the town. Strode, who was going to be coachman, had mounted the box. and I drove inside so as to avoid observation a.s much as possible. By an indirect route and at an easy we made onr way to a spot we had settle upon, perhaps a. quarter of a mile from the entrance to the underground passage. Here, in a. wild piece of woodland approached by a rough grass road, the carriage could stay with very little cihance of attracting attention even from the Count's spies. We had agreed that I should go through to tnc Monastery aionc, for if the prisoner should he in the same room there would probably, unless we were inter- rupted, be no difficulty in my effecting her release single-handed; if, on the other hand, I could not find her, or any unexpected diffi- Cully should ariee, I was to hurry back for Strode. It was now dusk-almost dark. I put the tools in my pocket and hastened impatient ly to the entrance of the passage. I had bought a small lantern in Carlzig, and with this pro- tection for my light was able to make much quicker progress, especially as the way was now familiar. I reached the steps and trap- door; left my lantoern at the bottom and passed through. Then, as I drew near, a horrible fear came upon me that, a few steps would show me the disappointment to which I might be doomed. I scarcely dared approach the doorway where my wont fear* might ia an lughma be oonfixmed Tba moment* >y weakness was overcome and I peered out into the passage. To my intense joy and relief a faint glimmer of light fell across it at half its length. In a few seconds, I was by the window. Approaching cautiously, I heard no sound of vo;ces; the cart-ains were drawn slightly apart, I peeped through and saw Fraulein Asta. sit- ting there alone. A tap on the glass brought her joyfully.to the window. In reply to my sign of inquiry she nodded that all was safe, so without delay I set to work on the screws that held the bars. They had evidently been recently put in and yielded readily to the ,wrencll. One after another the bars were turned down while the prisoner kept watch by the door. In a few minutes every obstacle was removed; 1 beckoned, and the Fraulein ran to the window and opened it. "Is all safe?" were my first words. ee," she answered. "1 do not think Telka. -.unt" -ahe gave a littas will return, and tne Count"she gave a little siiuddtr—"is away. Oh, I have feared!" "Álld I, too. But we will talk of this presently when you are saae. Quiok, now; ormg a chair. So. Now let me lift you through. Her arms were round my neck, and I had in Lie difficulty in drawing her through the open window. "1:)0 far good," 1 said; "let me replace ilie bars to throw them off tne track." The deiay was risisy, but 1 judged it worth wiiiie to prevent the prisoners manner of esoape from being too obvious. Pursuit would N be certain in any case, and this precaution ikigin gclin us time. ihe ba,rs were soon in position. "Now. Fi auleiu, quick! Let me hold your arm and guide you. lhe way is not easy.' 1 led her along the aark passage and so to the irap-door. "Once down here .1 trust we shall be safe," 1 said, lilting it. -the girl nesitaied. a luo-eut,-the descent was not inviting—then, holding my hand, crept down. 1 took up my lantern aad-weut on in front, for there was no room for us to walk abreast. The dark, dripping, noisome gal- lery must have seemed horrible to the girl, but she kept bravely on at my heels, I guiding and encouraging her as best 1 could, consi- dering how nurried our progress had to be. "We are nearly at the end now," I waa able at length to say, and men we began the ascent which brought us to the entrance. Bidding her stay a moment while I recon- noitred, I scrambled warily up till my head was just enough above ground to look about. All seemed safe, so, pulling myself out of the hole, I lifted my companion after me. and we set off for the place where the carriage was waiting. As we came in sight of Strode he waved hit hand joyfully. "This is better than I dared to ho" Wa his excited greeting. The girl gave him a. grateful nod and smile,- there was no time for words as we harried into the carriage-the good fellow sprang up and set his horses going as fast as he dared down the bumpy lane. In ten minutes, how- ever, the jolting ceased; we had struck the high road, along which we began to bowl at a rare pace. I now had time to notice that my companion was evidently feeling the unusual exertions and excitement she had just gone through. She lay back half-fainting. I hastily opened a flask of wine; this revived her. She was a plucky girl, and in a few minutes had so fat recovered as to be able to laugh at her weak- ness and began to chat. "I was in the Monastery again last night," I said. "Again! Why did you come?" she asked. "I could not keep away. The feeling that you were in such danger was too strong for me, and I wanted, in case of accidents, to show Strode the way." Perhaps she felt intuitively that there had been a more strongly impelling reason behind the others. Anyhow, her look was more than grateful as she said: "It was rash of you to venture again. If | had known you were there I should have been terribly anxious. For they took me away ta a distant part of the building." Tou know why?" "Rallenstein had come unexpectedly." "I know." "You know?" she cried in surprise. "Yes. I saw him." "Herr Tyrrell! What fearful risks 7011. run. "I admit Fraulein, it was foolish, since it was scarcely fair to you. But at least I heard some interesting news." "Tell me." "That prince Theodor cannot ntarry yovuf Princess." "Cannot pH "For he is secretly married already. So ifc follows that these ghastly political murderit .have all been unnecessary. There is ever; reason now why yon should live." "Ah!" But unfortunately you died three day* ago. I died-three days ago So Count FureUo told his Excellency." She thought a moment. "Ah, yea, I undezS stand." So it seems to me, Fraulein, that now it iQ only the Count you have to fear." She gave a little shudder. And that is ba" enough. But at least I would rather a mil" lion times have his hate than his love. Ah, I cannot bear to think of it. yet I must tell you. About half an hoar after you had gome yes- terday the Ooant oame to my prisom room. He told me tha-t to let niie live wa«y ae much as his life was worth. Hie own risk wa^ so greaA that only upon one condi-t-ion would he lace it. Of course, you guess the condition; that 1 would marry him; otherwise that day must be my last. 'Remember,' he urged in his smooth, hateful voice, 'you are aJready dead in theory. The grave is dug for you in the wood outside; in ten minutes from the moment I give the word you will foe lying in it. It is painful for me to have to tell you this, but my life is precious, too; I cannot afford to risk it" unless I have a stake to play for.' (To be continued).
