the shock of the blow; but very soon
he was up and crying his commands
from behind the shield hedge of his
captains.
Let the Prince Aziel and the Jews
With him be taken alive and brought to
me- he shouted. Il will give a great
reward in cattle to those who capture
them, unframed. but if any do them
hurt, they themselves shall be put to
death"
The captains bowed and issued their
orders, and presently Aziel and his
companions saw lines of unarmored
men creeping up ladders set upon every
side of the lofty tower. Again and
again they cast off the ladders till at
length, being so few, they could stir
them no more because OF the weight
upon them, but must hack at the heads
of the stormers as they appeared above
the parapet, killing them one by one.
In this fashion they slew many, but
their arms grew weary at last, and
ever under the eye Of their king the
brave savages crept upward. needless
of death, till, with a shout. they poured
over the battlements and rushed at the
little band of Jews. Now, rather than
be taken, AZiel sought to throw him
self from the tower. but his compan-
ions held him, and thus at last it came
about that he was seized and bound.
As they dragged him to the stairway,
he looked across the fosSe and saw the
mercenaries flying from the inner wall,

And l, King Ithobal, tell you that

with a laugh. Then he called to his
guard and added: Let this man and
his companions be taken to the place
prepared for them"
Now Aziel was dragged from the tent
and thrust into wooden cage, such
as were used for carrying slaves and
women from place to place upon the
backs of camels. His soldiers, who had
been taken with him, were thrust also
into cages, and with himself laden upon
carnels that were waiting, two cages to
each camel. Then a cloth was thrown
over them, and, rising to their feet the
camels began to march. When they
had covered a league or more of ground
Aziel learned from the motion of the
camel upon which he was secured, and
the blows of its drivers, that they We're
ascending some steep place. AT length
they reached the top of it and were
unloaded from the beasts like merchan-
disc but could see nothing, for by now
the night had fallen. Then, still in
the cages, they were carried to a tent,
where food and water were given them
through the bars, after which so weary
was Aziel that he fell asleep. At day
break he awoke, or, rather, was awak-
ened. by the sound of a familiar voice,
and, looking through his bars. per-
ceived Metem standing before them,
guarded, but unbound, with Indignation
written on his face, and tears in his
quick eyes.
Alas" he cried, that should have
lived to see the seed of Israel and
Pharaoh thus fastened like a wild
beast in a den, while barbarians make
a mock of him. oh, prince, it were
better that you should die rather than
endure such shame"
..Misfortunes are the master of man,

THE ATTACK ON THE WALL BEGAN.

saw also the citizens of Zimboe stream
ing by thousands TO the narrow gate
way Of the temple fortress. Then he
grOaned in his heart and struggled no
more, for he knew that the fate of the
ancient town was sealed, and that the
prophecy OF Issachar would be full
filed.
a while later Aziel and those with
him, their hands bound behind their
backs, were led by hide ropes tied
about their necks, through the army
of the tribes, that jeered and spat upon
them as they passed to a tent on the
plain, above which hoated the banner
of Ithobal. Into this tent the prince
was thrust alone and there forced upon
his knees by the soldiers who held him.
Before him, upon couch covered with
a lion skin, lay the great shape of Tho
bal, while physicians washed his
wounded scalp.
Greeting. son of Israel and Phar-
aoh," he said, in mocking voice.
Truly you are wise thus to do homage
TO the king of the world"

they told you that the city has fallen,
and that my captains hold the gates,

And all this she does for the love of

fuses to become my queen, ruling over
that city which l have conquered and
all my unnumbered tribes. Do you

no manhood that you can stoop to such

1T is because of my manhood that

Doubtless you think that a foolish
fancy and naught else drives me to the
deed, but it is not so, although in truth
my heart chooses this woman to be my
wife and none other That fondness

THE GAGE OF DEATH.

THE GAGE OF DEATH.
An hour later the attack commenced
at the chosen points of the double wall,
enc of them being the southern gate.
In front Of the advancing columns We're
driven vast numbers of slaves, most of
whom had been captured, or had sur
rendered in the outer town. These men
were laden with fagots to fill the ditch,
rude ladders, NVherewith to scale the
walls, and heavy trunks of trees, to
be used in preaching them. For the
mCst part, they were unarmed, and pro-
tected only by their burdens, which
they held before them IS shields, and
the arrows of the warriors OF Ithobal.
But these did little harm TO the de-
tenders, who were hidden behind the
walls, whereas their shafts rained on
them from above, killed or wounded the
slaves by scores, ard when they turned
to Ily, they We're driven onward by the
spear points Of the savages, to be slain

them lived, and, running under the She

Then the real attack began. With

oaTHERE Is HOPE"

It was dawn, and Ithobal. the king,
stood without the gates of the tomb of
Baaltis, the gray light glimmering
family on his harness, and knocked
upon the brazen bars with the handle
of his sword.
who troubles me now?" said voice
within. S
Lady. it is 7, Ithobal. who, as 1
promised by Metem, the Phoenician,
am come to learn your will as to the
fate of Prince Aziel. Already he hangs
above the gulf, and within one short
hour, if you so decree it, he will be set
free to return TO his own land"
"At what price will he be set free,
King Ithobal?"
Lady. you know the price; it is your
self Oh, I beseech you, be wise and
spare his life and your own. Listen.
Spare his life and I win spare this
city, which lies in the hollow of my
hand. and you shall rule it with me-
You cannot bride me thus, King
Ithobal. Ny father. whom 1 loved. is
dead. and shall j give myself to YOU
for the sake of a city that would have
betrayed me into your hands,"
Nay, but for the sake of the man
whom you love you shall do even this.

blood will be upon your head, and what
will you have gained?'
Death. which is dear to me, for I
weary of the struggle of my days"
Then end it in my arms, lady. Soon
this fancy will escape your mind. and
you will remain one of the mightiest
queens of men,"
ELISA returned no answer, and for
awhile there was silence.
Lady" said Ithobal, at length, 1.-The
sun rises. and my servants yonder
await signal"
Then she spoke. like one who hest
tates
Are you not afraid, King Ithobai,
to trust your life to a woman won in
such a fashion,"
Nay" answered Ithobal "for though
you say their fate concerns you not,
the lives of all those penned-up thou
sands are hostages of my own. Should
you by chance find means to stab me
unawares, then tonight fire and sword
would rage through the city of Zimbca
Nor do ] fear the future. since / know
well that you who think you hate me
now, very soon will learn to love me-"
You promise, King Ithobai. that if I
yield myself you will set the Prince

but elsewhere it may be otherwise,
and. indeed, for a while the attack upon
the south gate sIackened.
Another hour passed, and suddenly
to the left Of them rose wild yell of
triumph, and with it a shout Of Fly to
the second wall. The foe is in the
fOsse.
Metem looked and there. 800 PAGES to
their left, flood of savaSes poured to-
ward them down the great ditch.
Come" he said, the outer wall is
lest" But as he spoke, once more the
ladders rose against the gates and
nankinG towers, and once more Aziel
sDrane to cast them down. When the
deed was done. ne looked behind him
to find that he was cut off and sur
rounded. Metem and most of his men.
indeed, had gained the inner wall in
safety. while ne, with i only Of his
bravest soldiers, Jews of his own fol-
loving. who had stayed to help him
TO throw back the ladders, were left
upon the gateway tower. Nor was es-
cape any longer possible, for both the
plain without and the foSSe within were
filled with the men of Ithobal, who adj
vanced also down the broad coping of
the captured wall.
Now. there is but one thing that we
can do said Aziel, fight bravely till
we are slain.
AS he spoke a javelin cast from the
zyalI beneath struck him upon the
breastplate. and, though the bronze
turned the iron point, brought him to
