CHAPTER TX.

NN the following morning when
they came into the eating room
~ OF the inn Goodwin and Wulf
found they were no longer
alone In the house, for sundry other
guests sat there partaking Of their
morning meal Among them was the
English trader Thomas Of Ipswich,
who, 1t appeared, had intended to start
for Jerusalem that morning with his
goods, but the riding mule he had
bought proved to be lame from prick
In the hoof. so that he must walt q few
days, or 80 be said. Under these ciF-
cumstances he offered the brethren his
company In their rambllngs about
town. This they thought 1t wise not to
refuse, although they felt little conf
dence in the man. believing that 1t was
he, who had found out their story and
true names and revealed them to Ma
SCUBA, either through talkatiyeness or
with q purpose.

"DouDtless you have heard that one

here recently as witchl Why, fool
ish men, can lay you both dead be-
fore ever those words pass your lips"
you think you can" said Goodwin,
but for my part am sure that this is

do not wish to harm Us any more than
we wish to harm you To be plain,

"Where is the security that you will

Wulf bluntly
'You must take the word Of a
daughter Of Al-je-bal.' I have none
other to offer" she replied.
THAT may mean DEATH" said Wulf.
"You said Just now that was not fat
ed, and, although have sought your
company for my own reasons, I have
no quarrel with you-as yet. Choose
your own path. Still. tell you that II
you 20, who, CHANGING to know Arabic,
have learned my secret, you die, and
that II you stay you are safe-at least
while you are In this house. / swear
II on the token Of AlJe-bal" and,
bending forward, she touched the ring
N GOdwin's hand, but remember that
for the future cannot answer"
Goodwin and Wulf looked at each 9th
err. Then Goodwin replied
~ think that we will trust you and
stay" words at which she smiled a lit
tie, as though she were pleased, then
said:
"Now II you wish to walk abroad,
guests Peter and John. will summon
the slave to guide you, and in four
days we will talk more Of this matter
Of your journey, which until then had
best be forgotten"
So the man came, armed with a
sword, and led them out clad In their
pilgrims robes, through the streets OF
this eastern town. In due course they
came to the inn again. having met no
one whom they knew. When the breth-
rem were back in their chamber, seated
at the far end Of It and speaking very
low lest they should be overheard, they
consulted together long and earnestly
as to what they should do. This was
clear-they and something Of their mis-
sion were known, and doubtless notice
Of their coming would soon be given
to the sultan Saladin. From the king
and great Christian lords In Jerusalem
they could expect little help, since to
give 1t might be to bring about an open
rupture with saladin. True, they might
try to And their way to Damascus
alone, but,lf the sultan was warned OF
their coming would he NOT cause them
to be killed upon the rodd or cast into
some dungeon where they would Ian
guish out their livesl The more they
spoke Of these matters the more they
were perplexed till at length Goodwin
said;
'Brother, our uncle babe us earnest
N to seek out this Al-Je-bal, and

dangerous. think that we had best
obey him who may have been given

FACTS VS.. THEORIES.

The opponents of county division have given us many
figures based on theories and lot of abored calcula-
tons to scare the tmd and deceive the unthnking but
they have never denied and will not deny the fact that
all the small counties are managed at less expense than
the large ones.
They may figure and figure and theorize and argue
but the fact remains undsputed and indsputable in
cold type in the State Comptroller report for 1905
That report shows that these small counties, viz
Baker Citrus Franklin, fernando, Holmes, Liberty,
Pasco and Wakulla-with assessment of less than
million dollars each are conducted tax rate OF from
S to mills less than DeSotos.
Calhoun Gadsden, Hamilton, Lafayette Levy,
Nassau and Sumter each with assessment valuation
of less than million and half dollars, enjoy tax rate
of from 14,to 19 mills, while DeSoto pays TO-
The Comptroler's report shows that all the Dig
counties pay higher tax rate than the small ones
Each of the new counties which it is proposed TO
make out of DeSoto will have taxable property OF nearly
million and quarter dollars which is ample to sustain
county organization and maintain schools and good
roads, and that too at lower tax rate than we are
paying,

SuStalns Injuries and
Loses a Valuable
ViolonCello.

~ AKLAND, Aug. 3.-William L.
Leimert, a we'll known mu-
sician and a brother of Wal
ter Leimert. manager of the
real estate office of wickham Havens,
narrowly escaped serious injury this
afternoon by being thrown from Col
lege-avenue car at the curve on Col
lege and Alcatraz avenues. Leimert
was thrown TO the ground on his left
side and his left knee and left arm were
badly wrenched A valuable violon-
cello which he was carrying at the
time was broken beyond repair.
The accident was due to the speed with
which the car, which was in charge Of a
student motorman under the direction
of Motorman Squire, rounded the curve.
Several other passengers who were
riding outside were thrown from their
seats, but were not hurled 10 the
ground. All the passengers on the car
were badly shaken up.
Leimert boarded the car in Berkeley
and was on his way to this city. The
shock of the fall stunned him for a
moment and it was at first thought he
was badly injured, but before the con-
ductor of the car reached him he had
struggled to his feet.
Leimert was informed by other pas
sengers on the car that several similar
accidents have occurred and ii is his
intention to compel the Oakland Trac-
tion Company to reimburse him for the
loss of the violoncello, which was val
ued at $500.

STRANGE WOMAN GIVES
BAIL coin TO TEAMSTER
Overhears His Remark That He
Must Go to Jail and Helps
to Free Him.

OAKLAND, Aug. 3.-Through the
Kindness of a woman whom he had
never seen before. J. NJ Smith a San
Francisco teamster, who several days
ago spent day in this city as the re-
suit that he imbibed too freely and
landed in the City Prison on charge
of drunkenness, was spared the humil-
iatioR Of spending three days in the
Jail. The woman, who is young and
pretty. gave Smith the money with
which to pay the fine imposed by the
court, after the latter had tried in vain
10 secure the necessary sum from
friends.
Smith was taken to San Francisco by
Police Ofieer Fife and spent several
hours endeavoring to secure $10.45, the
sim necessary to pay his fine. At the
end of that time he had secured but IS.
Standing on the corner of Mission and
Eighth streets, he said TO Fife:
We'll, 1 guess I'll nave to go back to
Jail"
A young woman passing at that mo-
nent, hearing the remark, paused and
asked the cause Of the trouble. Smith
explained that he needed S5.45 to Sc
cure his release. The woman opened
her purse and handed the teamster the
amount required, saying:
There is the money, poor man. Try
not to get into trouble again.
Without another word she turned and
walked away before the amazed team
ster could voice his thanks. Smith
went back to Oakland and paid his
fine, returning to San Francisco to re-
sumo his work.
