could be seen from the place where he
took his observation, and with the cur-
iosity that seems a heritage among
Anglo-Saxons the world over. Ile had
even. .sighed for an opportunity to tread
those forbidden lanes, to look upon the
imperial palace witain and without, and
discover something of the quant me-
thods in vogue among the mysterious
Council of State that met so solemnly
at daybreak each morning in the Pal -
nee of Heavenly Purity. ,
It was hard for PIympton to believe
that the 1Wished-for opportunity had
come at last, when he might learn all
he, had desired, to discover, and possi-
bly., morein the bargain, being at the,

Kai Wang marched on just in ad-
' vance, "ready to do any talking that
might be necessary, and cutting quite a
wide swath in his important bearing, as
though still acting the part 'el a 'nen-

' 'Probably there was nOt, one of them

• brought them to a certain point in the
teat of a towering building. which Lord
Hackett at once judged to be the. Iden-
tical, imperial palace that was the urn-

Worried in the fear and belief that these
dates might insouse way somehow
conflict. .
This would, of c'ourse,' be to 'their
detriment, as they were "the weaker
party. .
Since their advice ad, not been asked
in the premises and was not desired, all
they could do was 'to push straight on
and trust to Providence and the saga-
cious Kai Wang to keep, trouble at
arm's length.
This venerable section of old, Peking,
has - doubtless witnessed many strange
spectacles in its day, which extends
back far into the remote past; yet it
would be safe to say that a more des-
perate and quixotic mission was never
undertaken within those walls than the
one that, now engrossed our friend' at-
tention,:
It annoyed PlyinVen to know that
their mission' of humanity was brought
in sperilbecause, forsooth, a woman,
despairing of accomp,lishing her. sweet
will with the sickly and yet stubborn'
monarch of the Li Hung Chang party
upon the throne, chose to take this very
night as a time west fitting for the substitution of another in the plaee of the.
resent ruler. • .
What fatality was there about it all
that the' chosen time should so interfere
with their own little arrangements?
Undoubtedly the known fact that the
Emperor had signed Dr. Jack's railroad
concession, which had in Some miracu-
lous . manner also slipped through
Tsung-h-Yamen, ' had ben the main
cause ‘of his secret deposition .
The Dowager Empress .would coun-
tenance no rival, and chose to side' with
the Russian . party in opposition to the
best -read and most ' thoroughly' culti-
vated among the -leaders of Chinese
public opinion. • .
. Something connected with her, past,
long before 7 she was taken from, the
common, people and made the favorite
wife of. the former Emperor, had •caused
her. to hate the British; and she never'
lost an opportunity to show this miser-
able "temper 'toward ' them when it was
consideredsafe to do so. •
Kai Wang was not the man to waste
precious time in .bemoaning fads that
could .not be avoided.
He had simply made a plain state-
ment of the. case, telling what he knew
and what he had reason to believe, so
that his friends mighte updei.stand the
'difficulties they had to contend with.,
.This done, 'his duty was completed up
to the point of action. and he turned
philosophieally to the, task in hand. - -
China .may appear, to be the land of
dragons and enchantments; the popu-
lar mind may feed npon the wonderful.
doing's pf" sorcerers and magicians. and
even i look 'upon the spirits .of the dead
as .coming back to inhebit other lower
forms,whence,- theyocan keep watch
and ward over those for whose ' welfare
they may have been solicitous when on

In a -Word, the Chinese while fond of

. Thus, the wise and sapient seer, Kai
Wang,. instead of waving his wizerd
.armS and mumblipg a mystic treed be-
fore , which, bolts and bars must give
way, earefully produced'. a • great key

And Lord Beckett, who had little faith
in the potepey of charins, and talis-
mans, while placing sturdy dependence
upon the effect of brawn and Nadia -tis-
sue, rejoiced to know their guide dis-
dained to avail himself of the, privileges
of his race, and rose superior to the
occasion; , • ,

that he Should do BO, Since LIS •cOuntry-
'men have this long time been loudly

Besides. Lord Hackett was by nature
a man who scorned danger.
Larry had east that comprehensive
glance all around him ere committing
himself 10 the.41o= of the mince.
lt, was really aedesire to get his bear-
ings, and not such it final farewell look
as a condemned Criminal might expect
to cast about, him ere taking up the
death march to the willows. •
He did not forget that it devolved
upon him to defend Avis, how that the
seemed no longer to have leer legal
protector.
Larry bad ere now proved to the
complete satisfaction ofall concerned
that, in spite of his limited,Mature, he
could assume this office with honor, and
was no fee to be despised.
Thus, then, the little partywent in,
peaceably enough, and with at least fair
hopes that their future would be safe in
the hands of the keen -witted Kai Wang,
devoted to their cause.
What their coming out might be, the
future alone must' declare.
The _atmosphere and sky gave them
no warning of what tavaited them
yond.
Unlike the sailore who plowed the
vast ocean, no barometer could tell
them when 'a hurricane bore down
with.mighly force that called for reefed
sails.
Consequently, s it was necessary for
them to be prepared .at alL timeaofor an
emergency, and this was pretty much
of a tax and strain., .
When they had entered, Kai Wang
-proceeded' to closeeand secure the brass
door .-again, having reasons of Isis own
for beingeso particular; nor did any ef
theothers dream of questioning the
.wisdorn• of that polcy.
So long as the big key remained fast
in his girdle, they could make' their
speedy exit when the proper time for
decamping arrived, .
The mere conviction that he, was ac-
tually, under the reefof the royal pal-
ace was quite 'enough to give Lord
Hackett. a .thrill. %-
Perhaps certain strange thoughts
floated athwart his 'mind, for he was
still in a 'Ineaaure eormeated ,with the
diplomatic 'service of Great Britain, ,and
if this fact ever came out, it was apt to
cause .something of a strained relation
between the two goVernments.
This- was no new idea, howea•er. '
He had considered the queStiain 'from
all sides at the time he deterthined te
embark: upon the: adventure, and throw
his fortunes, in with, Larry and be.
Jack's widow. '• •
Besides, thevague dream he had
many times Indulged in was apparently
'coming to pass, and his 'opportunity to
gaze upon, tne Curious phases of the
mysterious Purple City had arrived.
.Perhaps --Who could say?—they might
be givena chance. to see something of
the astonishing event that, according
to Kai Wang, was taking place in: the
royal palace this night.- .
Really, it • would be something of
which he could speak boastfully in the,.
.figure, if he might be a.witness to the
,diplomacy of the Dowager Empress, and.
SC the new Emperor poAibly even be-
fore' the inandartn.s had a chance to
make his 'acquaintance.
•Deep down—in his heart Plynipton
deplored the neeessity Of their being
compelled to labor under such addi-
tional disadvantages.
The whole imperial city was.. un-
doubtedly under additional guards,, and
as to the ,palece itself, he feared lest 'it
