thousand pounds were caught. A large

no tidings Of the absent ones Abou
Kuram strutted sullenly about the CAMP
recalling his stock Of Arabian oaths. Noon
came again, and again sunset, supper and
prayers, yet there was no sign of Koor Ali
and his escort.
am afraid Abou Kuram went through
his devotions with a preoccupied, inatten-
| tive mind that evening. At any rate the
first thing he did after turning his face from
Mecca was to pour flood of objurgations
on Amood Sim, on Koor Ali, on Tabal and
all concerned with them. But that did not
bring chem, and once more the camp lay
did not lie down. Long after his men were
snoring at the sky watched his dark and
solitary figure moving to and fro in angry,
uneasy expectancy.
''There shall be a reckoning for this"
heard him mutter once. Woe betide the
man who causeth this delay"
He was still walking about when / fell
asleep.
Twas enjoying happy dream, when all
at once in the black darkness was reused
by the crackle of firearms and the shrill
voices OF excited men.

as sprang up, rubbing my eyes. 1.-THE
devil on the black horse with 10, 600 demons

there was momentary line of leaping fire
which showed our scurrying men confused.

great surprise there came no response to
our volley, nor could we hear any move
ment outside our own lines, though we
hearkened with ears that would have heard
the stealthy tread of the panther.
''The enemy has run," said some one ex-
ultingly. Our fire has given him feet
feet to make off" And just then, as If IN
answer to this boast, there was the vicious
ping of flying lead III the air, and some Of
our men dropped screaming to the earth.
We delivered another volley blindly into
the darkness, then waiLed for the return
fire. but it did not come.
Savage at the double disgrace Of being
fooled and taken unawares, Abou Kuram
ordered sortie, but the party had not gone
20 yards when another shower Of bullets
fell upon US from the opposite direction. The
foe was running round us, peppering US at
his will A second sortie party was in
stantly sent cut, but like the first it came
back without making any discovery. Only
some said they had seen terrible appan-
tion on blnck horse Of gigantic size, and
that steed and rider breathed blue flame.
So the army stood there, nervously han
ding its matchlocks and supplicating the
protection of the prophet. The prophet
was evidently gracious, for there were no
more Of those ugly surprises that night.
The foe, content with moderate amount
of fun, had gone of to chuckle over his
\ success and get up his courage for big
fight.
Abou Knram knew it was coming He
knew, Too, that the enemy, flushed with
success, would be exceedingly tough to

the oavalcade toiled '9-earily on, yearning
so fervently for rest that it forgot glory,
yet stolidly enduring the harshness of fate
But indeed an Arab is a wildcat in vital

ity to bear pain uucomplainingly. We
pressed silently ahead, counting the beads
of sweat as they rolled down and wonder
ing how many of us the desert would swal
low ere we got chance of taking it out of
the enemy.
At last we left tho sands for alkaline
lands scantily clothed with hard, sour
grass and sapless diminutive shrubs, and
gradually ascending to range of noun
tains that crossed ourline of advance north
and south. 1t was somewhere within those
ramparts that we expected to find Amood
Sim and his discomfted army. Being now
close upon the scene of the late battle, we
had to exercise double vigilance, for Yumen
Yusel would naturally be on the lookout
to prevent aid from reaching the man
whom he wished to destroy utterly. Near.
ly all the cooking was done by day, so that
there might be no fires at night to indicate
our presence and position, and when we lay
down to rest the number of sentinels was
increased. But we reached the foothills
without molestation and far from sorry
that we were likely to be able to pick our
selves together before fighting.
Asi would be at once extremely danger
Gus, extremely difficult and tedious to take
the whole body of troops to the rendezvous
appointed by Amood Sim, Abou Kuram
decided to send Koor Ali forward with an
escort to ascertain whether it would not be
possible to effect n junction of the two
armies outside the mountains. 1t was near
sunset when VIC arrived ut our halting
place, and rs soon as the moon rose Koor
Ali and his little band set forth, Tabal still
leading.
According to the guide we might expect
them back ut the latest by noon next day
Noon came, however, without bringing
them. The afternoon wore slowly on, dark
ness fell, prayers were said and supper was
eaten, and still no Koor Ali. Abou kuram
was getting impatient. After forced
