CHAPTER I.
Julian the Scouge,

She asked II her father had come.
mo, my sweet lady," returned Ho-
ram. HE was busy. It may appear
but my great love and my deep so.ici-
tude for your welfare, must be my ex-
cuse. l hope you have found 1t pleas
ant here"
The maiden said she could not have
asked for a more pleasant place OF
abode.
The king was charmed by her smil-
ing speech-so different from what she
had eve before given him-and he
fondly believed that she vas delighted
with his presence.
Ulin, fearing that the least sign of
GOODNESS or reserve might excite the
Jealousy of the grey-headed-monarch,
and bring down upon her some terrible
evil. exerted all her powers of pleas
a~ntness, and wore the smile upon her
face while a pang vas in her bosom.
But Horam's visit was destined to
be cut short. While he was, for the
sixth time making excuses for his
visit the door of the apartment was
unceremoniously opened and a black
e~ntered-not me of those who had
been on guard in the valley but a
stranger to Ulin, covered with sweat
and dust, as though he had been riding
hard and fast.
Hal" cried the king, starting to his
feet. How now. Sadak? What Is the
meaning Of this?"
Pardon, sire. l knew not that you
were thus engaged. They only told
me that you were here and / stopped
to inquire no further"
Not that-not that Sadak. Why
have you come from Damascus In such
hot haste?"
II came to inform you sire that Ju-
Ian the Scourge Of Damascus Is APP
preaching Il city!"
Death and devastation" cried Ho-
ram starting back with alarm. "How
know you this?"
I'VE heard from him by way Of a
merchant who vas in a caravan that
he had robbed"
What caravan"
"The caravan from Tadmoor, with
the riches which were on their way
from B~assora."
Those riches were mine," said Ho-
ram.
AYE, sire; and Julian took them
took all that belonged to you, but
spared the poorer merchants. But
that Is not the worst. He sends word
that he will lay Damascus in ashes.
About Cassem babe me hasten hither
and give you warning"
The king was fairly beside himself
with fear and rage. The name of Ju-
liam was a terror to him, and at the
sound thereof he trembled exceedingly.
And he seemed to fear more than the
mere physical prowess Of the Scourge.
There was a mystic quality In his fear
"A nameless dread Of the avenger.
Where Is the demon now?" he ask
ed. after he had gazed awhile in silence
upon the messenger.
He is not far from the city, sire.
Somewhere to the eastward. We think.
Your journey back, II you make haste,
will be SAFE"
~ will return" cried the monarch,
shifting his fists together; land I will
bring out an army and sweep this ter
rible Scourge from on the face of the
earth!"
He babe Sadak go and make ready
for the start, and then he turned to
Ulin.
"You will be safe here, sweet one;
and 1t will not be long before our hap
piness shall be complete"
His words of parting were few. for
he was much excited, and his voice
trembled a no spoke. He turned back
once after he had reached the door,
a though he would say something.
but finally went away without giving
the intended speech. From q window

In Mexico experience has conclusive

been to establish a good school for in

Many foreign officers of different ma

Lycanius. This valley Is the sole pos
session Of the king and can only be
reached by n passage through a
mighty mountain, capable OF admitting
but one person at a time. Thither
Ulin goes with Abba, where they are
placed under the protection Of the
attendants by the king and Ulin's
father. Six days after their entering
Horam returns Unexpectedly. Ulin

treats him kindly.

OIL NOTES.

THE MARKET remaining
stationary for more than two months at
$1.25. the credit balance market for
Pennsylvania crude was advanced last
Saturday to $130. North Lima was
advanced from Ole TO 94c, and South
Lima and Indiana from Soc to e9c. The
advance was not in the nature of sur
prise The wide margin between the
runs and shipments and almost total fail
ure to find new pools in the lower
southwest, have for some time inspir-
ed the hope for better market. 1t Is
an open question, however whether
an advance can change the existing
field conditions The amount of work
completed from month to month IS
evidence that there has been no small
effort made to develop old territory
and find new. A measure of success
has attended the first, but the latter
has been almost complete failure.
