TIME word assassin" was once
eminently respectable. 1t
was first used in the twelfth
century in Persia, 1t sgnified
member of a. Mohammedan relig-
ious order These assassins devot-
ed their lives to truth justice,
purity. right, and their business
was to give everybody square
deal
They took their name from the
leader Hassan. and were called
Hassanites. or Hassas sins. Then
some enemy of the order called
them Hashassins or hashish eaters.
These men were fred by religious
zeal until they ran amuck, killing
every one VINO tried to oppose them.
People thought they were intoM-
Gated by hashish. or the juice of
the hemp plant. This may have
been so. but man intoxicated by
religious zeal, or drunk on success
and his own oratory, is quite as
dangerous as an individual who is
simply plain drunk on dope and
drugs.
The word "assa ssin" was taken
up by the French and circulated,
first as a slang word, and then it
got fixed in the dictionary, and
when the English adopted it, it be-
came legitimate.
Proud of the Name.
These Assassins of Islam were
proud of the name and glored in,
it. The secret Order of Assassins
existed from the twelfth century
down practically 10 our own time,
and members of the order still en-
dure.
They were fatalists. and were
taught that if they died in the par
ticular work to which they were
assigned. their souls would imme-
diately gravitate to Paradise.
For 200 years the Order of Assas-
sins held all Asia Minor in terror,
and instituted some very Dark
Ages.
The Assassins struck in the dark,
and the government was pOwerless
to locate the murderers; in fact, Of
fcers of the government themselves
were often members of this Order
of Assassins. The whole thing was
very much like the Camorra of
Italy. or the cheerful White Caps.
of which America has had quite a
taste.
The world should beware of men
who come in the name of reforma-
ton, demanding that the world
shdJd be made over according to
ideSl plans which they themselves
have formulated. Any man who is
better Cor who thinks he is better
than the common run of humanity
is apt TO be dangerous individual
and may easily gravitate into the
sacred Order of 4 ssassins
The Mahdis that have appeared
from time to time in the Orient, es-
pecialIy in Asia Minor. Persia and
Turkey. have belonged to this Or
der of Assassins. The word NAH
dr. means one who leads us out of
captivity.

He Took to the Desert.
This man took to the desert with
a few hundred followers. At first
they were unarmed. They lived on
the contributions of the Faithful
little later, when contributions
were not forthcoming, they made
raids into the towns and villages
and collected their own. Soon they

Gordon arrived at Khartoum in

hostile Soudanese to lay down their

Immunity from punishment for

The reply of the Assassins was

Only the death of Gordon aroused
the British nation to the danger Of
