technic taught him by the MoloSsians. and was
in and out and all over the place with such
uuickncsS that one would have thought hIl
half a dozen dogs, rather than one. He would
even leap clean over the back of an enemy 10
chop at an exposed throat or hanstr1nS a dog

result was that the attackers began To get be
Widered and puzzled and might have gwen
way but for the fury OF their own pasha. an
enormous brinded brute almost black IN color
and with strength and activity quite equal u
that of YdShd.
suddenly Kara Burnt went down Trying
to initiate his brother tactics, ne was trlppeu
flung on his back and before Vas ha could get
to his aid the black pdShu had tiung himself
uDon him and torn his iugular Crd2td at this
s1Iccess he hurled himself with such fury upon
YayOuz that this sturdy veteran was nearly
Knocked of his bleeding leSs Ha~ha tievv t"
his assistance with the same incredible activity
he had shown from the first The DlaCk pdShd-
leaving YaVouz TO his pack, turned with roar
to meet the attack, when instantly the battle
became a duel between the leaders, HaY"uH
assailantS drew back. leaving him tor the mo
ment erect and rigid on the rim OF circle
whereof Iasha and the black PaSha formed the
center
DY this time the ttproar had become great
- that not only all the dogs OF the district but

Lay you five suineas they do him up
cried Sir Hemery.
" Done There aren't dawgs enough III the
town tn do him up' HellU' There's hIE pard-

For YavOuz had permitted himself a few
minutes Of painting when with his breath back
IN his body and tnaddened by the Hndrl1ng ne
had suddenly flung himself upon the nearest
enemy Chop, chop, slash and here was Il dog
shrieking off on three legs and another rolling ON
his back
But the Turks were getting hard to hold
One or two had recognized friends among the

the ruction. An Armenian started to lay about
him with a club but Schuyler grabbed him by
the shoulders
Let EN- alone lie bawled There's bet
on it, Reaching in his pocket. he hauled out
a handful of small silver and copper CONS
which he flung out into the moonlit square
Instantly all interest in the dog fight was for
gotten by the liscontcnted Populacc. who
greedilv scrambled for the coins

Easha would have shown signs of fatigue. but
on the contrary his vgor seemed To increase.

much longer To last

that brought wells of eNccration from the
