She described Rasputin and the miracle he had performed. Prince Paul was tenderly incredulous. He did not wish to hurt her feelinga, only commenting:

"On my father's estate in the Ukraine, there was a faith healer. I watched him work. It was crude form of hypnotism; that was all"

"Oh, but not Father Rasputin— he is a true Holy man."

Prince Paul laughed at ber en- thusiasm.

"Run up and ask him to prevent any disorders to-morrow," he sug gented.

"Disorders?"

"Yes. Timi's why I'm here. We're posting patrols. We fear that there may be trouble at the celebration."

"But, why should there be any trouble? The people love the Im- perial family and are happy to celo- brate the third century of their reign," she insisted,

"I wish that were true of all the people," he said soberly. "It would have us a lot of trouble and worry. My regiment is on guard and I feel the safety of the Imperial family is my own responsibility. God knows what to-morrow will bring. The Grand Duke Sergei, he's so rush and so given to doing foolish things. The people haven't forgot- ten the ten roubles reward he gave that sentry who shot down. Sonta Nordkin, the revolutionist, in cold blood."

"But you really don't think the Grand Duke Sergei is in danger?"

"In grave danger-and what is worse; he has refused to allow me to give him an escort to the cathedral. He insists upon driving in his car- riage without An armed guard. I'm worried. God alone knows what may happen."

Natasha patted his hand reassur- ingly, and the young officer smiled back gratefully. They parted. In Natasha's ears, her sweetheart's last words, "God alone knows what may happen." persisted in a thin echo. She shuddered,

What will to-morrow bring? Are Prince Paul's fears unfounded ur is there real danger for the Im- perial family? Read to-morrow's justalment.
