General Booth Honored.

The freedom of the city of London,
a distinction on which many states
men and warriors have set great store,
was recently bestowed on General
Booth OF the Salvation Army, who ac-
cepted ii as the recognition OF the
worldwide work of the army. The pre-
sentation was made in the presence of
a distinguished company, including
civic officials, several thousand citi-
zens and many officers of the Salvation
Army. The address referred in glow
ing terms to the work of General
Booth and his organization, not only
in London, but throughout the world.
The general in reply referred to the
difficulties which beset him in his
early days and which are only now be-
coming officially recognized.
Instead of the usual gold casket the
address was inclosed in an oaken cas-
ket, the balance of the money voted by
the municipal council being, at the re-
quest of General Booth. given in the
shape of check toward the funds of
the organization.

CHAPTER XIX.
Surrounded By Fire.


Truer words we're never spoken
than when Travers declares they had
hot work before them.
AS the others comprising the little
party of defenders come tumbling out
OF the compartments which they have
defended so braVely, they, too, dis
cover the advance of the guerrillas,
marked as it is by dozen waving
fiambeaux hastily snatched from the
fires.
Jack is by instinct leader of men.
His quick mind grasps a problem
and almost on the instant solves it.
He seems to knoW by intuition, as
it appears, just what sort of action
suits an emergency.
Speedily he plares his men where
they can do the most execution, and
in the darkness they crouch along
side the carriage, awaiting the coming
of the enemy.
There is hardly a breathing spell be-
fore those who come running along
the railway track will be close enough
to invite an opening of the engage
ment.
The guerrillas of course cannot see
the carriage, since all lights have
been extinguished; but knowing the
nature of the ground, they are able
TO guess its present position with
some degree of certainty.
Jack is there in the van ready to
give good account of himself. He
has regulated matters SO there may
be no great waste of ammunition.
Smithers and himself are to open the
ball, and if it becomes necessary, the
others will chime in.
The two comrades are close togeth-
er. and have time for the exchange
of a few sentences ere the nearest
torchbearers come within the range
where they have marked an imagin-
ary dead line.
Then the ball opens.
Doubtless the advancing guerrillas
understand the situation as soon as
the double flash cleaves the darkness
up the rise, for their savage shouts
seem to increase in volume.
Those in the lead are naturally the
ones to suffer when meeting with
such an obstacle.
Two torches are seen to plunge
downward, and those who carried
them will hardly give further trou.
.ble.
Still, behind presses throng; the
catastrophe has not dulled their en-
thusiasm, but rather whetted their ap-
petite for revenge.
Again Jack and Smithers let loose.
They are as cool and collected as
though practicirg at wooden targets.
Each second is the signal for double
discharge. and the regularity of this
death dealing report stamps itself
upon the mind with awful distinct
ness.
Unseen by Tcavers, two heads have
nppeared at the carriage window. An
overpowering curiosity to see the ma
tire of the danger that hangs over
them has Influenced Jessie and the
Spanish girl to thus endeavor to sur
2. vey the scene.
They discover the advancing
torches, and hear the shouts of the
assailants; then come the reports
