CHAPTER Xxx.

Next morning the Orakzai Pathan
sat and summed himself in the cave
mouth, emitting worldly wisdom I'M
adulterated with divinity. AS King
went toward him to see to whom he
spoke he grinned and pointed with his
thumb. and King looked down on some
sick and wounded men who sat in a
crowd together on the ramp, ten feet
or so below the cave.
They seemed stout soldieriy fellows.
Men of another type were being kept
at distance by dint Of argument and
threats. Away in the distance was Mu-
hammad Amin with his broad back
turned to the cave, in alteration with
a dozen other mullahs. For the time
he was out of the reckoning.
"SOme of these are wounded" the
Pathan explained. "Some have sores.
Some have the bellyache. Then again,
some are sick of words, hot and cold by
day and night. All have served in the
army. All have medals. All are de-
sartae& Sauas &sR asas reason. some for

with her not only to become scented
with her unmistakable perfume but
even to get her hair on his person,
then gone was all imagination Of her
love for himselfi Then she had lied
from first to last! Then she had tried
to make him love her that she might
use him, and finding she had failed, she
had sent her true love with the dagger
to make an endl
In moment he imagined a whole
picture, as it might have been in a
crystal, Of himself trapped and made
to don the Romans armor and forced
to pose to the savage "Hills"-Or
fooled into posing to them-as her
lover, while Rewa Gunga lurked be
hind the scenes and waited for the
harvest in the end. And what kind of
harvest?
And what kind Of man must Rewa
Gunga be who could lightly let go all
the prejudices of the East and submit
to what only the West has endured
hitherto with any complacency-
''tertium quid?'
Yet what fool he, King, had been
not to appreciate at once that Rewa
Gunga must be her lover. Why should
he not be? Were they not alike as
cousins? And the East does not love
its contrary, but it's complement, being
older in love than the West, and wiser
in it's ways in all but the material.
He had been blind. He had overlooked
the Obvious-that from first to last her
plan had been to set herself and this
Rewa Gunga on the throne of India
He washed and went through the
mummery of Muslin prayers for the
watchful mullah's sake, and climbed
on to his bed. But sleep seemed out
of the question. He lay and tossed for
an hour, his mind as busy as terrier
in hay. And when he did fall asleep
at last 1t was so to dream and mutter
that the mullah came and shook him
and preached him half-hour sermon
against the mortal sins that rob men
of peaceful slumber by giving them a
foretaste Of the punishment to come.
All that seemed kinder and more re-
freshing than Kings own thoughts had
been, for when the mullah had done
at last and had gone striding back to
the cave mouth, he really did fall
sound asleep, and 1t was after dawn
when he awoke. The mullah'S voice,
not untuneful, was rousing all the val
ley echoes in the call to prayer.

take it! Sit Yonder is ink-ttutt-
ttutt write, now, write!''
King sat at box and waited, as If
to take dictation, but the mullah, tug
ging at his beard, grew furious.
''Write thine own letter. Invent
thine own argument! Persuade her, or
die in new wayl will invent new
way for theev'
So King began to write, in Urdu, for
reasons of his own. He had spoken
once or twice in Urdu to the mullah
and had received no answer. 1t was a
fair guess that Muhammad was ignor-
ant of the scholars language.
Greeting" he wrote, ''to the most beau
t1ful and very wise Princess Yasmini, in
ner palace in the caves in Khinjan, from
ner servant Kurram Khan the hakim, in
ths camp Of the mullah Muhammad A MIN
In the Hills"
The mullah Muhammad Amin demands
surrender of Khinjan Caves and of all his
ammunition. Further, he demands full
control of you and Of me and Of all your
men.
He threatens as preliminary to block
ace khinjan caves, unless the answer to
TINS prove favorable letting none enter
, Dut calling his own men out to join him.
Inns would suit the Indian government,
because while the Hills fight among
themselves they cannot raid India, and
wnlle he blockades Khinjan caves there
Will be time to move against him.
knowing that he dares begin and can
accomplish what he threatens, I am sor-
ry; because I know it is said how many
services you have rendered of old to the
W
raj are one-one to remember-one to for
get-one to help each other in good time.
1t may be that vengeance against me
would seem SWeeter to you than return
TO your former allegiance. In that case,
Princess, you only need betray me to the
mu!ls4h, and be sure my death would leave
nothing to be desired by the spectators.
AT present he does not suspect me.
BE assured, however, that not to be-
tray me to him is to leave me free to serve
my government and well able to do so.
invite you to return to India with
me, bearing news that the mullah Mu-
hammad Amin and his men are bottled in
khinjan caves, and to plan with me to
that end.
IF you will, then write an answer to
Muhammad Amin, not in Urdu, but in
language he can understand; seem to sur
render to him. But to me send verbal
message, either by the bearer Of this or by
some trustier messenger.
India can profit yet by your service If
you will And in that case pledge my
word to direct the governments attention
only to your good service in the matter.
1t is not yet too late to choose. It Is not
impertinent in me To urge you.
Nor can I say how gladly would
subscribe myself your grateful and loyal
servant
The mullah bounced on the finished
letter, pretended to read it, and
watched him seal it up, smudging the
hot wax with his own great guarded
thumb. Then he shouted for the Orak-
zai Pathan, who came striding in, all
grins and swagger.
''1'here-take it Make speed!" he

another and some for no reason at all.
Northumberland looks the other way.
Speak thou to them about the pardon
that is offered!"
So King went down among them,
taking some of the tools of his sup
posed trade with him and trying to
crowd down the triumph that would

ed to Sf.0ut. as men once did before
the wsls of Jericho. Possibility of par
don and reinstatement, though only
heart of at second hand, had brought
unity into being. And unity brought
eagerness.
'Let us start tonight" urged one
man.
"Nay!" the Pathan objected at
once. MANY of you can hardly march.

will spread news about pardons. 1t is
likely there are fifty there who will
dare follow me back, and then we
shall march down the Khyber like a
full company of the old daysp
King got busy with his lancet, but
the mullah came back and called him
off and drove the crowd away to a dis
lance; then he drove King into the
cave in front Of him, his mouth work
ing as If he were biting bits of ven-
geance off for future use.

kicked brand into the fire and the
tame leaped. It's light shone on a
yard and a half of exquisitely fine

CHAPTER XXI.

And while King knelt behind the
mullah and the whole camp faced Mec-
ca In OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES abaSement
there came strange man down the
midst-not strange to the "HillS,"
where such sights are common, but
strange to that camp and hour. Some
body rose and struck him, and he knelt
like the rest; but when prayer was
over and cooking had begun and the
camp became place Of savory smell,
he came on again-a blind man. He
was clean shaven, and he looked as
If he had not been blind long, for hts
physical health was good.
"Oh, the hakim-the good hakim r.
he walled. 'Where is the famous ha-
kim? Show me the way to hint Oh,
the famous, great, good hakim who can
heal mems eyes!"
81 am he" said King, and he stepped
down toward him. The blind mans
face looked strangely familiar, though
it was partly disguised by some gummy
stuff stuck all about the eyes. He
stared at the face again.
'Ismail !" he said ''You?"
"Aye Father Of cleverness! Make
play Of healing my eyes!"
So King made great show Of rub
bling on ointment. In a minute Ismail,
looking almost like young man with
out his great beard, was dancing like
a lunatic with both fists in the air, and
yelling as if wasps had stung him.
- ,,
see again! Isee! MY eyes have light
in them! Allah! Oh, Allah heap
riches on the great, wise hakim who
can heal mems eyes! Allah reward
him richly; for I am a beggar and
have no goods!"
The whole camp began to surge
toward him to see the miracle, and his
chosen bodyguard rushed up to drive
them back. And as they went a tall
Afridi came striding down the camp
with letter for the mullah held out
In a cleft stick in front of him.
"Her answer!' ~ said Ismail with a
wicked grin.
what is her word? Where is the
Orakzai Pathan?"
But Ismafl laughed and would not
answer him. 1t seemed to King that
he scented climax. Also he chose in
that instant to force the mullah's hand.
on the principle that hurried buffaloes
will blunder.
"To Khinjan!' he shouted to the
nearest man. "The mullah will march
on Khinjan!''
They murmured and wondered and
backed away from him to give him
room. Ismail watched him with
dropped jaw and wild eye.
Spread it through the camp thai.
we march on Khinjan! Shout it! Bid
them strike the tents p
Somebody behind took up the shout
and it went across the camp in leaps,
as men toss ball. There was surge
toward the tents, but King called to
his deserters and they clustered back
to him. He had to cement their ale
glance now or fail altogether, and he
would not he able to do it by ordinary
argument or by pleading; he had to
fire their Imagination. And he did.
"She is on our sidew That was a
sheer guess. "She has kept our man
and sent another as hostage for him in
token Of good faith! Listen! Ye saw
this mans eyes healed. Let that be
a token! Be We the men with new
eyes! Give it out! Claim the title
and be true to it and see me guide
you down the Khyber in good time like
a regiment, many more than hundred
strong!'
They jumped at the idea. The
"Hills" the whole East, for that mat
ter-are ever ready to form a new sect
t& join q new band or a new blood

double apostolic blessing, and then mo-
tioning as if he threw them the reine
and leave to gallop. They roared back
at him like the sea under the whip OF
a gaining wind. And Ismail disap-
peared among them, leaving Kina
alone. Then the mullah beckoned him
and showed him a letter he had crum-
pied In his fist. There were only
few lines, written in Arabic, which all
mullahs are supposed to be able to
read, and they were signed with q
strange scrawl that might have mean
anything. But the paper smelt strong
~ of her perfume.
Come, then. Bring all your men. and
will let you and them enter Khinjan
caves. We will strike a bargain in the
Cavern Of Earth'S Drink.
That was all, but the fire in the null
lah's eyes showed that he thought II
was enough. He did not doubt that
once he should have his extra four
thousand in the caves Khinjan would
be his; and he said so.
''Khinjan is mine !" he growled. 'In-
Ola is mine!"
King did not answer him. He could
only be still and be glad he had set the
camp moving and so had forced the
mullah's hand. 1.-THE old fatalist would
have suspected her answer other
wise" he told himself, for he knew
that he himself suspected 1t.
While he and the mullah watched
the tents began to fall and the women
labored to roll them. The men began
firing their rifles, and within the hour
enough ammunition had been squan-
dered to have fought a good-sized Skin
mish; but the mullah did not mind,
for he had Khinjan caves in view, and
none knew better than he what vast
store Of cartridges and dynamite was
piled in there. He let them waste.
Watching his opportunity, King
slipped down the ramp and into the
crowd, while the mullah was busy with
personal belongings in the cave. K1na
left his own belongings to the fateS, or
to any thief who should care to steal
them. He was safe from the mullah
in the midst Of his nearly eighty men,
who half believed him sending from
the skies.
1--WE see! We seel" they yelled and
danced around him.
Before ever the mullah gave an or
der they got under way and started
climbing the steep valley wall. The
mullah on his brown mule thrust for
ward, trying to get in the lead, and
King and his men hung back, to keep
at distance from him. Two or three
miles along the top of the escarpment
the mullah sent back word that he
wanted the halxim to be beside him.
But Kings men treated the messenger
to open scorn and sent him packing.
IBID the mullah hunt himself am

man gait.
"Art thou my man at last?" King
asked him, but Ismail laughed and
shook his head.

Dollars, Takes To-Day Recess.
Prohibition and Woman Suffrage Fur

Throughout the Session.

Washington.-The second session o.
the Sixty-fifth, or war" Congress
which began last December 3, ended
under resolution which had beer

tion on March 3 next

sentative Kitchin, the Democratic
leader warned the house that the
usual Christmas holidays will be cur
tailed to "a few days"
For length, bulk Of appropriations
for the war and the number and i'm
portance of measures passed the ses-
sion which has just closed was regard
ed by leaders as unprecedented. AT

$36, ,29S, 100000, making the total for
this Congress more than S55, ,000,-
600, Of which S19,4l2, 100000 was ap-
propriated at the tristan extra-ses-
