King Tommy By GEORGE A. BIRMINGHAM Copyright by Babbs Merrill C*—W. N. U. Service

DEEP-LAID SCHEMES Tommy Norreya. an Irish curate. invested in German marks and when they went down and kept on going Tommy ran over to Berlin to spend his fast-fading Investment. Tommy was a modest soul. so when a gentleman with an English accent .approached him in his hotel and called him “Tour Lordship.’ Tommy blinked his bright Irish eyes. But when the head waiter repeated the accusation, a* he bowed Tommy to a table. Tommy nearly collapsed. 'Who am If Tommy asked himself. “Is it a German jest; am I dreaming, or have I a doubler’ But before he had time to answer his own questions, he was deep In sucn a mesh of intrigue as even his Irish imagination never dreamed of. A little later a very pretty dancer threw him a note which said: "Go back to London and marry Viola Temple.” Tommy was intrigued to know who Vtohi Temple was. but the lovely little dancer held drat claim on his attention. So he stayed, thereby greatly complicating the already complicated complications. “George A. Birmingham” is really an Irish preacher—Very , Reverend James Owen Hannay. canon of St. Patrick's cathedral. Dublin—so you may be sure he’s portrayed "King Tommy" to the life and made him the lovable hero of a delightful romance ta j a setting of light comedy. Part 1. —London CHAPTER I I bad finished breakfast and was reading the Irish news in the Morn- . Ing Post. It gave me some pleasure to read the Irish news in the 'Morning Post in (he early part of 1922. The Republicans or the Free Staters had burned my bouse in County Clare, and I liked being told that such people come to a bad end. The Morning Post told me that every day with emphasis. Lord Norbeys walkel in and greeted me. “Good morning.” Unde Bill. Had a good night? Sleep sound and all that? Chewed up a satisfactory breakfast? What I always say it, if a fellow sleeps and eats he’s fit for anything.** 1 am not Norheys’ unde, and my name is not Bill, or even William; but I have known him ever since be was born, and 1 suppose be has a right to stick to the nickname which he first gave me when he was a child in the nursery. His father, the eighth marquis, was my best friend. He and I and Edmond Troyte. the younger brother, were at Winchester together, and afterward at Oxford. I was godfather to the present marquis. “Thanks.” I said. “I got through the night fairly well and the coffee was quite hot at breakfast” *1 thought I’d inqtflre," said Norbeys. “because what I’ve got to tell you may give you a bit of a shock. And what I always say is this: unless a fellow is pretty well braced up It’s better to let a shock stand over for a day or two.” "I feel as fit this morning,” I said, “as I’m ever likely to; so unless your news is really desperate—lt’s about Miss Temple. I suppose.” Miss Temple—Viola Temple of the advertisement holdings and the picture papers—ls a very beautiful lady with a spotless reputation. At that time ail London was enthusiastic about her dancing. Norheys was jnore enthusiastic than any one else. I hoped he did not mean to marry her. but was very much afraid he did. “Viola doesn’t come in nt all ro far.” said Norheys. “Though of course she may later on. No fellow can possibly tell wbotl come Into what, can he? You might be in it yourself. Uncle BUI, before we re actually through it." “Thau" 1 said, “Is extra reason for telling me wbat « i*.“It’S a new stunt at Uncle Net Cs." Hi* uncle Ned—this time a real unde—is Lord Edmund Troyte, sqn at the seventh marquis, unde of the ninth marquis of Norbeys, nee of our ablest, quite our most sincerely patriotic statesman, st present minister for Balkan affairs. Whatever the “Stunt" was. it must surely be safe and decorous if Lord Edmund invented ft. So l thought; but I was wrong. I might have remembered that there Is a queer vein of adventurousness and daring tn the Troyte family. There was a Lord Alfred who made hlmsett a sort of Arab sbeik early in the Eighteenth century. Before him there was an Elizabethan Lord Edmund who eame back fnuu the Span ish Main with a shlpfui of gold plate. There was a Lady Elizabeth Troyte who married Prince Boris of Lystria In 1762, and. after a brilliant military career, had her head eut off by the Turks, who were playing about In Lystar at that time. There were others. And tbat kind of thing, if it is in the blood. Is very hard to eradicate. » “Uncle Ned said Norheya “wants me co be a king.” Norheys was perfectly right to inquire about my health before he made an announcement like that. A man who had slept badly or who had had no breakfast might have fainted through sheer astonishment, •d soar beta, • kta,. KU* of what! bit of a fares just at this: Why not? Before you turn It

that way I can «ee—l dare say you'd make a fairly good king of some very small country. But I still find It very difficult to believe that your Unde Ned really proposed it. Did be mention the name of the country?** “He did; but it’s slipped out of my head for the minute. It was the same place where my greataunt Elisabeth went with tbat mucker of hers one hundred and fifty years ago.”' "Lystria.” I said. “But—well, of course your Uncle Edmund knows better than I do, but I have an impression that Lystria isn’t an Independent state any more.” I was right about that. I looked the matter up after Norbeys left me. Lystria, once an Independent kingdom, was incorporated Into the Republic of Megalia by the Treaty of Trianon. Megalia is one of those new republics which make the map of Europe very confusing to people like me who knew it before the war. No doubt the Ltrstrians deserved to lose their independence. The late king, Wladislaws VL, backed the wrong side in the war and like all who did tbat, lost his throne. “Lystria is the spot Uncle Ned mentioned,” said Norbeys. "Potty little one-horse place; but of course a fellow can’t expect to step into a firstrate job when he first goes into the king line of life.” “But.” I said, “if you really are to be a king—” As his godfather I felt ft my duty to speak seriously to Nbrheys about his future. I bad thought of quite a nice thing to say, but he interrupted me. "Uncle Ned wants me to,” he said. “It Isn’t r. thing I’d thought of going In for all on my own; but when Uncle Ned has set his heart on ft—well, no fellow with any sense of decency wants to start a family quar1 I Had Finished Breakfast and Was Reading the Irish News in the Morning Poet. *rel by going against his relations, unless he absolutely ha* to. I’ve been thinking things over since Uncle Ned spoke to me. My idea is that a king’s duty is to make as few laws as possible. and to stop other fellows making them if be can. What i always say is this: Most fellows are all right if you leave them alone and don't go trying to make them do things they don’t want to. Os course If they take to hatting each other on the heed, then you’ve got co send a policeman to stop them. But otherwise —Well, my idea of kings and presidents and people Ute that Is that they’ve far tou good an opinion of themselves- They always think they know what’s best and want the other fellow to do it. Whereas the other fellow knows really Just as well as they do. And my Idea is: Let him. Bo long as it doesn't annoy anybody else much, let him.” ’ Norheys’ political principles struck me as sound. I felt that, if ever he became king of Lystria. I should like io «e and live there. Taxes ought to be light; for the greater part of our national income seems to go in paying officials to compel people to do things they don’t want to. There ' would be no expenditure of that sort in Lystria under Norheya “There’s another fellow in this stunt,” he said, “besides Uncle Ned. Ever hear of any one called Cable?” ’ “I’ve heard of Procopius Cable,” 1 said. “Everybody has.” -1 haven't.” said Norheya. “At least I hadn't until yesterday. What surt of a bird is be?” I found It a little difficult to give a clear account of Procopius Cable Nobody knows where he ca? from. His Christian name sounds Greek, and I have heard it said that he was orig-

inally a Levantine Jew. I could not call Mm a captain of industry, for h« does not manufacture, nor drive othei people to manufacture anything ? suppose he might be described as i financier. I said so to Norheys. “Anything to do with oil?" b< asked. "Not that 1 know of.” I said, “but he may. It wouldn’t surprise me t< hear that Cable had something to d< with anything in the- world if there’* money to be made out of it.” “I mentioned ft.” said Norheya “because Uncle Ned said something about oil in Lystria. I can’t say I much like the idea of living in a place that stinks of paraffin, nasty stuff, always getting into your food and dripping ffihout. However, Uncle Ned says the food old British empire wants oil and if it does Pm all for its having as much as ft can get. That’s what I always say to a fellow who starts talking about the empire: The proper thing is to let the British empire get what it wants with the least possible fuss, whether It’s oil. or rubber, or whatever the thing may be. Uncle Ned seemed to think that in thia case it w-j 8 oil.” “Is there oil in Lystria? I nevei heard of it.” “That fellow Cable seems to have said so," said Norheys, “and I rather gather—mind you. I’m not saying this as a certain, sure thing My general impression is that If 1 was king of Lystria. Uncle Ned and the jolly old empire would collar the oil? See?" 1 began to see. CHAPTER II I took the first chance I got at having a chat with Edmond Troyte He was perfectly frank with me and told me all about the scheme for making his nephew king of Lystria. He began with the political part ot the plan. The Lystrians are. so be said, an intensely patriotic people and they very much dislike being merged in the Republic of Megalia In fact, Edmund admitted this to me, the framers of the Treaty of Trianon made a mistake, a bad mistake, in depriving Lystria of its Independence. "They are a people,” said Troyte “with a. strong feeling in favor ot monarchy. They don’t like the re publican form of government. The aristocracy doesn't like it The Church doesn’t like it, and in Lystria the Church counts for a lot Whatever the patriarch says the people say after him. The patriarch's name ia Menelaus” He went on to tell me that the Lys trians would like to have their oW king back. “But that’s impossible. The En rente powers wouldn’t stand ft. Besides, that fellow Wladislaws is a bad one. He treated his wife badly, she was an Englishwoman. As a mattet of fact, she was a distant cousin oi my own.” « Any sing who- treats a relative ot Troyte’s badly deserves to lose’ his throne 1 saw at once that Wladis laws had irretrievably lost his. The Patriarch Menelaus ant* th< Lystrian aristocracy." said Troyte; “know perfectly well that they can’t have Wladislaws back. So, some time ago. they asked for an Englishman The only condition they made was that hi should marry the ex-king’s daughter. Os course we turned tb« proposal down st once and no more was heard of it." “You seem to have turned it uj again.” I said. “Now, why?” That. It appeared. Is where Procopius Cable came in. He hat! found out that the Lystrian mountains were full of oil. He tried to get a cunceosion for the development of the oil holds. The Megallan government hesitated and wrangled and procrastinated until Cable got tired of trying tc deal with them. They had not money enough to develop the place themselves. They had not the knowledge or enterprise or energy to do it even if they had the money. And they would hot let Cable do It. So he started working up patriotic feeling in Lystria. or rather financing it, for ft did not need working up. He got into touch with the luitriarcli anti he got into touch with the grlstomc> through 8 certain Count Istvan Cas Itnir. He gave them ail tne money they wanted. According to Cable'* account everything was ready for a revolution. Ail that was wanted was a king whom the Entente powers would recognize. The Megnlian re public would be quite helpless if Eng land or any other great power recog nixed the new king of Lystria. My word! What next? With such clever and influential schemers at work, anything is ■ ITO BB CONTtNUBD.)
