"You aro inclined to be reckless,"

Besides, you see I ain provided with a
black mask, and behind it Will doubtless

McLane's lip has curled at the boast-
ing tone of the other, and :t is evident
that Ito does not sympathiat with Sir
Lionel in what be eays. If there is
anybony Dudley Melane detests, it a
boaster.
"Then, again, you have your revol-
ver," eays Sam, with an audible olincitle,
for he -knows perfectly well that et the
moment he speaks that eelf-same wea-
pon is lying back hi a Corner of the case

poeket of the Englielunan as lie restlesss

Sam does not take it upon himself to
infoim the other. of this thing, for the
simple reeson that he counts him as
among Ids enemies, and this singular ac-
cident may in the near future be ot
value to liiin.
"Mat you say is true -armed with
that trusty friend, I have no fear. Do
we drop out here?" eve Sir Lionel, ty-
ine on the mask,
'"In one minute," as the vehicle stcpe
by the culib.
"Dudley, see what I have brought for
you," with whiell Sinn takes out from a
small package a couple of masks very
like the Briton's.
With some laughter these are fastened
on,
"Suppose see are separated," says Mc-
Lane,
"The old signal," returns Sam.
.As Sir Lionel knows nothing of this,
he has to feel that in a measure he is
counted out; but ib does not seem to
be policy with him to show any, resent-
ment just now. He leaves the carriage
with the others . Sam ie the last out -
he has been delayed just fivaseconds in
securing the revolver which the Briton
heti lost, which he manages to very dex-
trously hide in a pocket.
The driver is paid, he starts his
horses, and the trio of foreigners find
themselves stranded upon the sidewalk
of the Corso, now filled With gay revel-
ers, who joke and laugh and sing, every-
thing being given over to the madness of
the hour, •
It is natural for any one who has life
about him to feel an interest in these
strange scenes And both Sam 13uxton
aod his comradee .are, of course,'quite
taken with what they gaze upon. Per-
haps their blood has been quickened by
the music that throbs upon the night
air as gay processions pass by, repro -
swilling various scenes in the history of
ancient Rome. Caesar and Nero, to-
gether 'with -numerous famoue person-
ages, figure in the streets during the
Carnival time.
Everyone appears to be given up to
merriment, and it hardly seems possible
that under thig cloak of innocence dark -
schemes can he concocted; yet, in all
probability the evil men of Rome are
reaping a harvest while all good neigh-
bors give themselves up to the intoxica-
tion of the hour. s
Here some minstrels sing and perform
-yonder the gipsies of true Spanish
blood, under -a tent, give ono of their
weird dances, charging a few centimes to
witness it, Other eeenes are 'on the
tight and left. A stranger in Rome must
believe himself bewitched, since it can
rover be his fortune to gaze upon such
odd sights under any other sun than of
the Eternal City:
The three foreigners saunter along.
Now they stop to gaze upon some singe -
der spectacle that presents itself, and
Anon dodge hendfuls of rice showered
upon them by fun-lovingliedies from. cer-
tain balconies. It will be a rare feast
for the pigeonsithis Carnival season,
since tons of nee must be scattered
along the streets of Rome. Cue might
easily believe on the following morning
'that a tremendous wedding fever had
itruck the city, engulflpg moat of the
bachelors and maids in a ground race to
the altar,
These sights will pall upon the stroll -
ere as the hour grows later, and they
may be •glad to seek their hetet, to
.shut themselves in a close room, and
'keep out as much of the noise. poe.
Then agein, Sam is more than eager to
hear what his comrade has to tay-to
learn where Dudley picked up his infer-
mation With reepeet to the 13riton be-
ing concerned in the game against him.
He beeomes listless, and bis compan-
ions notice it. It is Dudley who sug-
gests that they head in the direction of
the hotel. Sir Lionel eeecinds the mo-
tion; at the sante time Sam believes he

CHAPTER XX. '
Sam Buxton does not turn his head,
but' appears to be decidedly interested
in a baud of Spanish students passing
by who play upon mandolins and guitars
and sing college songs. They have
been, travelling, and change to be in
Rome at the time of the carnival sea-

a touch upon his tLrm-a heft

"The signor mighe like to hear his

Then Sam turns around; be beholds
a girlish figure, not unlike numberous
others with whom he has flirted on the
streets of Rome on this night. A mask
conceals her face, but he believes it
must be oiie to attraet attention. In
the first place, her figure le such as
to give him that impression, and then
again lie has Dudley's word for it --
Dudley, who hes looked upon. the risen's
countenance through the split in the
division wali of the compartment of a
railway carriage.
"Ahl a fortune-tellerl You can de-•
clare whet the future has in store for
us?" he asks,
"Si, signor, for a consideration, which
is to be Overt to the poor of Rome,"
she repliege
"It would have to .be a...princely 'sum
to give every beggar a eentimee'laughs
Sam, while poor stricken Dudley watts
in feverish anxiety the autconze of this
strange adventure.
"You must not be . so severe on our
greet eitys--London has its thousands of
poor -I have seen your Whitechapel,
sir."
"Ali! elle tekes me for a John Bull,"
thinks Sam; but lie does nothing•to cor-
rect the error.
'This is a poor ;place in which to tell
fortunes, signoria,' he says, es the bois-
terous crowd jostle them rudely, with-
out meaning anything, .
At the same moraent he believes he
has a glimpse of Count Tivoli standing
on some steps -back of them -the figure
seems very fainiliar, although a mask
hides the face.
"Would the sighor step down the
block lialfsway to the room that ,has
beers fitted up for the purpou? It is
for a good cause." .
She Scents to falter in asking the
question; as though -not accustomed to

eagerness in her voice; he sees her look
down the Corso with alarm as loud
cheers burst upon the ear, something
more stupendous than usual occurring
in that quareet, while he catchea the
words she utters almost beneath her
breath:
"The king! My soul! doee he tome
so soon? Then all is iodeed lostt"
Sam jumps at coaclusions, guesses the
teal status of affairs, and knows how
they have basely .deceived, this Orl,
playing upon 'ter loyalty to the reign-
ing monarch, no admires her alreadY,
and thinke none., the fess of one who
could sink her own feelizigs in doing
what she believes is for the good of
her country.
"On one condition, signorina, I will go
--that is, you shall allow illy compan-
ion to accompany me -to tell his for-
tune also," says Seen.
"Surely, two rows of lire Are better'
than one, Ile shell etane and welcome."
"Thanks," Dudley has the temerity to
mutter, but his charmer steins to pay
no attention to him, keeping tip the eon -
venation with Sam..
"Why do you linger, signor? I am
ready to teed. the way. The fortune
teller's parlor will surprise you. Comet"
as a freeh burst of shouts and music
sounds down the thoroughfare, where
the populace seems to be tremendoutly
excited over something.
"Don't you think, my dear lady, It
would. be common eourtesy for you to
let us see the face of our guide? We
do not suspect evil, it is trite, but it
would remove all doubts."
Sam is tattiog advantage of her ner-

"What care I though et be miles? I
would willingly follow,' Sam hears his
comrade say, as if speaking' to himself.
He squeezes Dudley's arna-a signal
the other anewers by bringing his head
nearer that of Buxton.
"'What is it?" -
"My dear fellow, I, too, have made a
startling discoyery. L don't know how
it may affect our future welfare, but
it is best you shoule share it,"
"Jupiter Pluviusi what can it be? See
here, Sam, does it have anything to de
with-that.girl?"
"Everything. When she disclosed her
fate I was really ete.ggered, not alone
by her beauty-"
"You 'lave aerie air before?" quickly.
"True."
"You know her?" suspielonsly.
"I have in the past,' says Sam, with
a hesitatiou that fires his conerade's
imagination as, a match might a mass
of shavings,
"Bf- St. Andrew! and, you never told
me about this darling— What ails
.yous man?"
"Ohl you'ra wrong; I've spoken of
her frequently."
Dudley bas a sudden inspiration,
"Sam Buxton, do you mean to tell
me this" lady cen be—"
"Lovely BeatriX Paoli, the opera.
singer, over whom all Italy has gone
evild," says Sam, almost in the other's
ear, for the racket is tremendous just
at this quareer of the thorougnfare-
men and boys are exploding fireernek-
ea, . shouts and laus,rhter, song e nd just,
fill the 'air with a confusion of molds, -
even as the street itself is crammed
with briught costumes from curb to
curb.
"And the girl who fell in love with
one Sam Buxton because he was a lucky
dog and rendered her a service," groane
Dudley, for thia is the hist stra.w on
sthe camel's back -twice has the sante
thing occurred -he cannot shout much
more.
"NO; no, don't say that -I never made

. "No."
"Yoe can't marry both those girls."
"Heaven deliver me, Dud!"
"Then you shall choose, and I -I will
be quite content with the: other" coin--
placently cries the eithlete Ills ear,
at which Sam grins maliciously.
"You seem' to be quite indifferent as
to -the one that may fall to your shares
my dear boy."
"Not so -I have already endured the
. . . .
path. of giving up 'Mee Aileen -hence
you see in what line the queition lies
at present," admits Dudley.
"Take her, niy boy, and Heaven bless
you." -
"Hold on -you are too fast. Wait
and see what time brings. It. strikes
Me that the love affairs of both are
pretty much confused just mow.. Say
no more, Sam. I have simply admired
this girl,. and believe her to be a -pure
and honorable character, yet deceieied
by those she has. trusted!'
"And I am ready to (swear to it,"
breathes Sam, earnestly. "Her uncle,
Count Tivoll—s"
"I forgot -he is her uncle. Now I can
read between the lines and knoev how it
comes that she has given herself to
aiding them. The mystery is• opening
up. We may soon baffle theee eon-

"In the meentime, my dear boy, don't

There is little heed tO warn the
Canadian, who /eller, reelizes the depth
of danger they are facing. He has, like
Baron Sam, a liking for adventure,
and sees in this affair of the Carnival
