name of Allah, and in his name they

atrocious crimes human ingenuity can
invent. That name is on the lips of
every beggar that beseeches aims or

that name the trader drives his par

week, when one morning, as l was
strolling through the great market
place with my native guide, l discov-

fess their war-like appearance struck
me with awe. Everything about their
looks and actions denoted fight. Each
man of them was tall, 1.-the, sinewy
and swarthy, with a bullet-shaped
head, clearly shaver save for single
lock of long, coal-black hair hanging
from his crown. Each carried flung
carelessly over his shoulder, weather
stained gun of prodigious barrel, while
a Misunderstanding knife protruded
from each belt.
"At sight of them the Moors fell back
right and left, though muttered inpre-
cations of hatred came from every di-
rection. My guide whispered to me
that the newcomers were Berbers,
their eternal enemies, come to the town
for trade, and, it might be, pick up
quarrel with it's peaceful inhabitants.
He ended his bit of information, of
course, with pious 60 inclination of
his head and the name of Allah on his
tongue. Later l learned that the Ber-
bers had lived in Barbary long ere the
Moors had come to wrest the land from
them. Such as had escaped the
slaughter of the invaders had fled to
the mountains, and there their success
i've generations of descendants had
lived, dividing their time between find
ing a scanty sustenance and harassing
their natural enemies.
Bringing from their mountain home
the odor of it's breezes and the spirit of
its freedom, they marched through the
crowded streets with the air of a band
of conquerors just returning from some

BILE at the very outset, though it came
in a manner did not anticipate
THE Berbers had found their way
undisputed until they came in front Of
a low-walled, roofless structure, with
whitewashed walls, standing in the
very heart of the market place. a build
ing which had been pointed out 70 me
on the previous day as the Saints
house. a sacred spot to the Moslem,
never to be invaded by one not a true
follower of Allah. There rested the
bones of one of their great saints, con-
tinually guarded by trustworthy senti-
nels.
Straight toward this c"7secrated
ground went the staggering Berbers,
as if intent upon entrance. Deep, omin-
Gus growls filled the air, and felt that
it was discretionary for me to move
back. But the crowd had hemmed me
in so found that was impossible, so 1
was compelled to witness the scene
that followed.
THE leader of the Berbers was a
man about middle age, as near as 1
could judge him, and, If there was one
IN the entire party that showed any
superiority in looks or strength over
his companions he was entitled to that
credit.
THE Moorish guard, himself a DOW
erful fellow, flung forth torrent of
abusive language as the newcomers adj
vanced, and. flanked by a dozen sturdy
Moors, he waited the coming of the
Berbers. AS If his enemy moved too
slowly for him, he then stepped quickly
forward, and, swinging the heavy
spear he carried over his head, he
hurled himself upon the other.
Renewed yells now filled the air,
and / expected to see the Berber
pierced through the body. Instead
there was the swift CLEAN of naked
knife, cry of horror, and the Moor
sunk at the feet of his companions In
the gasps of death. To my surprise,
the Berbers offered to strike no further
blow, and. as if suddenly changing
their mind in regard to entering the
place. wheeled and started to retreat.
This was the signal for the compan-
ions of the dead guardsman to rush
upon the half dozen mountaineers, al
of whom escaped except him who had
killed the Moor, the latter being quick
ly overpowered and dragged away.
What will they do with him.?
asked of my guide. ...
Take him before the cadi, that III
may be judged, and may Allahs curse
rest on him.
Anxious to see the sequel of thi
affair asked my companion to lead M
TO the court of Moorish justice. which
we reached just as the officers entered
with the prisoner between them, and
mob of people at their heels.
This scene of justice was an open al
