CHAPTER XXI.
Innocence Of Helen.

The king of Damascus had grown
very old and very sour within those
last few days. Rage and chagrin had
so shaken his frame that he seemed
stricken with palsy; and his voice
from its howlings and meanings, had
become hoarse and cracked. But he
had promise of sweet revenge. His
soldiers were upon the track of the
fugitives, and he believed they would
bring them back. o. how he would
gloat over the sufferings of his vic
tins when they came within his
power!
81 tell thee, About Cassem," he said,
addressing his minister, "the fair, frail
Ulin must suffer for this. She is no
longer your child shall not regard
her as such.
About bowed his head, and answered
that he was content.
Omar could not help noticing that
his friend was in trouble, and he took
the liberty to ask what had gone
wrong.
Alas" cried Koran. everything
goes wrong" And he told how he had
put away all his wives for the daugh
ter Of About Cassem, and how she had
betrayed him and fed from him. And
then he told how he had once captur-
ed his dreaded enemy, the Scourge Of
Damascus. and how the prize had
slipped through his fingers by means
of the treachery of his slaves.

CHAPTER XXX.
A Kings Story.

The first person whom Ulin met
after entering the cave was Ezabel
who stood by table upon which a
lamp was burning.
.My dear child l was Just coming
in search of you. We were anxious.
What-have you been in tears? Ulin,
what is it? What has happened?"
The maiden, in memory Of the great
event of the evening, forgot the cause
of fear that had been with her. 1t
was secret she could not keep-a Sc
cret she had no wish to keep; and
resting her head upon Ezabel's Shout
der, she told the story of her love.
Dearest Ulin," said the aged ma
tron, kissing the maiden upon the
brow, "he is worthy of the trust you
have reposed in him!"
At that moment Abba come in from
the grove where she had been in
search of her Mistress and very soon
see, too, had heard the story. She
gazed into Ulin's face a moment, and
then, with tear glistening in her eye,
she murmured:
81 shall be very happy now, for
henceforth l can serve and love you
both"
AS Abba spoke, and before any reply
could be made, Julian came hurrying
into the cave. He was much excited
and Ben Hadad saw a fear upon his
face such as had never been seen there
before.

And there is danger" cried the

"Well-and what them" asked Ben

"what-of ArabsG Do they mean to

there Is safety, so have no fear. Should
the rascals come they will not harm
these old people; they will not dare TO
do it."
Ulin had drawn a mantle about her
shoulders, and Julian had turned to
speak apart with Ben Hadad, wheh
Osmir came rushing into the cave,
with terror depicted most painfully
upon his ebon features.
"They are coming" he cries. They
have sprung upon us from hidden
cover"
Who are coming?"
"They are the kings soldiers, LED
by the captain, Benoni!"
On the next instant the clash OF
arms was heard at the entrance,
Back, back, sweet love-" said Ju-
liam, gently pushing the maiden TO-
wards her chamber. There may yet
be hope"
He grasped a sword as he spoke, and
leaped toward the entrance; but he
was too late. Already score of arm
ed men were rushing in, number OF
them bearing flaming torches in their
hands.
Come. good Osmir," the chieftain
cried, bracing himself for the work.
Capture for us Is certain death. We
can do no better than to sell our lives
here"
One-two-three-fo of the royal
soldiers fell beneath the lightning-like
strokes OF Julian's trenchant blade;
and in the same time Osmir had slain
| two; but 1t was not In the roll OF fate
that two were to overcome the force
that came pouring into the cave. A
flaming torch was hurled upon the
chieftain, and while he staggered be-
meath the binding stroke he was
drawn over backwards and his arms
quickly pinioned The next move

looking up he beheld Judah.

What did the guard want at that

master. Julian arose and went to him
and they whispered hurriedly togeth-

CREsCEUs STILL CHAMPION.
An Unsatisfactory Race With Sean
neII's Trottcr, The Abbot.

| BOSTON, Sept 21.-Cresceus is still the
undisputed trotting king of the world. At
| Readville this afternoon, in race that
was thrilling at times and bordering on
| farce at others, George H. Ketcham's S
great stallion for the second time this
| season defeated The Abbot. The race
| was unsatisfactory and even disappoint-
| ing to say the least, yet Cresceus won
| in such decisive manner as to leave no
doubt as to his being the champion among
trotters In one of the heats The Abbot
broke before he had gone $50 yards, while
| I'm another the word go had hardly been
out of the starters mouth when Mr.. Scan
nells gelding was off his gait.
The time for the four heats did not
even equal the time made yesterday by
Lord Derby in the match with Boralma.
The reason for this was the bad condition
of the track. while both horses were far
from being in good condition. In fact,
Mr. Ketcham stated that Cresceus was
not on edge and he judged that The Alb
bot was in the same condition. 1t was
plain, even to the Inexperienced, that
there was something wrong with Mr..
Scannelrs gelding. The Abbot made many
bad breaks Prior to the last heat IL be-
came necessary for Ed Geers. the driver
of The Abbot. to place toe weights on his
horse to prevent him from getting off his
gait
The weights worked miracles In the
point sought, but when it seemed as If
The Abbot would win the heat he tired
while in the lead and had to give way to
the powerful stallion. The reason as
cribed for this sudden exhaustion was the
weights put on to steady the gelding.
The only heat won by The Abbot was
the second. This was a thrilling race
from the start to the finish. Cresceus
took lead at the word and for the first
quarter opened gap of two lengths. but
when the horses got Strengthened out on
the backstretch, inch by inch The Abbot
moved up, and after they passed the half
mile post The Abbot went to the front,
and with wonderful burst of speed, fin
ished with good lead The form shown
by the gelding was splendid. He moved
with such ease and grace that would lead
one to believe he was a sure winner OF
the match.
The performance of Cresceus, from start
to finish. was splendid. and under tue con-
ditions il was sufficient to show that in
all kinds of conditions he was the peer
of them all. Not once during tho four
heats did he break, and his exhibition of
eameness and speed displayed in the last
heat, when he snatched victory from The
Abbot. was wonderful
