age, set upon the robber. The man be- ing he stronger of the two, flung him aside.
 The boy then struck him a heavy blow in the face, which not only stag gered the man, but took him by sur prise Blow after blow the boy de- Hvered in rapid succession and the be- wildered thief was soon defending himself instead of leading in the at tack.
 When the boy had him practically whipped. the second man, who had bounded over the counter, rushed to his companion's aid He sprang at Healy and tried to catch his arms, but the boy was too quick for him.
 The robber then struck at the boy with his club, but the blow was a glancing one, and failed to land.
 With stained face and blackened eye. the first man pulled his revolver and started for the boy.
 Don't shoot yet" shouted his com panion. Let me get him with this"
 He swung a vicious blow in the di- recton of the lads head. The boy fell to his hands ahd knees in avoiding the blow. but was up again in an instant in the corner, he found an ax Armed with this he started toward the two men.
 Both aimed their revolvers and held the boy at bay, but with careful aim he let the ax fly at the head of the rob Der nearest him.
 He missed the man. but the ax crashed through the front window of the store, making a fearful racket. Evidently fearing they would be trap ped in the store the robbers fled.
 The boy pursued the fugitives into Third avenue. C They waved their re- volvers at him in a threatening man. ner and shouted they would kill him if he did not stop. Then they. dashed up the stairs of an elevated station boarded a train and escaped.

routes and to serve thousands of ad- ditional patrons on existing routes with little or no increased cost But the Taft program of postal reform and progress is not yet completed. The president is urging congress to adopt legislation for the readiuStment of postage rates on q basis of cost, which will eventually permit of l cent rate on letter mail. A project also is under way for giving to village communities the same free delivery of mail that is now enjoyed by cities and the rural population.
 The establishment of a domestic par eel post has received the earnest con sideration of the president. In some branches of the delivery service, nota- blv the rural and city delivery routes, the equipment now necessary is sui ficient for the additional transportation Of considerable merchandise with little or no increase ill expense.
 President Taft. accordingly, has ur- gently recommended to congress the adoption of the necessary Legislation. and to present the issue clearly. three items of $50, ,0OO each have been includ- cd in the estimates of the postal serv- ice by Postmaster General Hitchcock, two to cover the initial expense of in trOducing the parcel post on rural routes and in the city delivery service, respectively, and the third to meet the cost of an investigation looking to the final extension of the service to the railways and other transportation lines.

woman's proud Ii s Morgan held his BREATH trying to
divine her words, and hoping torture was not being
included in the sentence In few moments shades OF
surprise broke on several features; but there no
doubt about the intense relief and JOY manifested IN the
countenances of the guilty couple
Abux looked puzzled Began say she not going to
have them killed after all. She want them to be happy
together Therefore, she going to send them back to
Goa. Everybody mistaken in Highness
"Then think whole lot more of herr cried Morgan,
who had been wrought up to high pitch OF excitement
"The Began doing the right thing and d like to tell
her So"
Meanwhile, the man fastened to express his gratitude
to the Began; but she stayed him by hngng out her
hand in swift movement observed by the guards, who
exchanged significant glances Followed then pause.
The Began turned again toward the man, and on
her face Morgan thought he detected expression Of
could it be admiration! 1t was gone IN an instant then

l to all that. Water gate now open; so we go on
board before couple"
Morgan perceived reason in Alibuxs argument, the
introduction of another Ferngee stranger at the
ment being hardly opportune and of doubtful benefit
So he told AGbux to lead on. With Ahbux tor guide
the water gate reached by shorter and passed
the Begam's opening order which had gone before

shadow of the fortress-a black sinister which
Morgan felt particular regret on leaving.
HE was leaning the bulwark with his gaze sweep
ing shoreward, when his yachting instinct told him
there something wrong with the of the craft
that is, if she bound for Goa. He had laid the
of the Marposa down the coast, and knew the
position of Goa the chart within degree two. AT
present they seemed be heading straight out into the
Indian Ocean He waited to see if the steersman would
change the long tack but when it looked
if the African continent to be their destination he
inquired of Abux. Though Alibux professed to know
little of seamanship, he admitted the shore growing
unnecessarily faint for Goa objective. He went
to talk with of the crew, and when he returned
brought startling bit of news.

"Great Scott" exclaimed Morgan. 3Do you mean

if he 60 on like now about girl,
pretty soon he dead man.
This Interpretation again drew
Morgan's attention to the two prin-
cipal characters. At closer range
the man appeared to be Latin
European, who with voice and ges-
ture raised his petition to the dignity
of an art. Whatever his past might
have been, his present attempt to
save the girl, probably considering
his own case hopeless, kindled Nor
gan's sympathy. AS to the Began,
she had changed her position slightly,
looking at her supplicant with half
closed, slanting eyes, while about
the corners of her lips, from which
her veil had fallen, hung faint trace
of that particular oriental smile
which people of other parts call in
scrutable; but the man who knows
reckons it as his doom. Evidently
such was Alibux's conclusion.
"All settled now" he whispered.
"That man and girl same as already
dead. Soon Began say how she
wants them killed."
MORGAN wasbeginning to reflect
~ that he had no desire to wit
ness cold -blooded murder, when the
Began lifted her arms with a flash
and jangle of heavy ornaments. Her
gesture of supple feline grace con-
veyed the idea of being tired of
further argument. She turned her
back on the man, moved a few PAGES
across the hall, and halted. Then
she shot a quick glance from one
offender to the other.
Presently she spoke in voice
that rang clear through the hall,
and all faces Weakened to expressions
of tense expectancy flushed was

hardly the proper costume in which to
appear before Began. But the ma
tive had another.
"Her Highness Began thinking
very deep. No one venture to speak
to her now. The Honor better wait.
l take him to place where l make it
all right Then l find out. My name
Abdul Alibux," he added with touch
of family pride in settlement OF all
good faith.
AS Morgan didn't perceive an al
tentative, he nodded agreement.
Alibux then led him cautious ramble
through what seemed to be the greater
part of the fortress, and landed him
finally in a small tower chamber,
access to which was gained by way of
a roof.
mo one trouble you here, he said.
"You stay while 60 and find out how

cannot go, l bring him eat"
"All right" Morgan replied. go
and see what you can do. l presume
you know best about the Began.
Alibux went away, leaving Morgan
to listen to the swirl of waters rising
and falling among the rocks at the
foot of the fortress. He was gone per-
haps half an hour, and when he re-
turned he brought a dish of mutton
and rice which appealed to Morgan's
sharpened appetite.
