t min airaigd Ahou Kuram went through his devotions with a preoc- cupied, inattentive mird that evening.

At any rate the first thing he did ef- ter turning Lis face from Mecca was to pour a flood of objurgations on Amood Sinn, on Koor Ali, on Taba! and all concerned with them. But that did not bring them, and once more the camp lay down to rest. The corn- Inmander, however, did not lie down. Long after his men were snoring at the sky I watched his dark and suli-

| tary figure moving to and fro in an-

ery, uneasy expectancy.

“ There shall be a reckoning for this.’”’ “Woe he- tide the man who causeth this delay.”

He was still walking about when I

I was enjoying a happy dream, when all at once tn the black darkness I was

roused by the crackle of firearms and |

the shrill voices of excited men. “The enemy, the enemy,” they shout-

ed, as I sprang up, rubbing my eyes. “The devil on the black horse with 10,000 demons at his back.” And then all along our front there was a mo- mentary line of leaping fire which showed our scurrying men confused- ly trying to get into fighting order. To our great surprise there came fio re- sponse to our volley, nor could we hear any movement outside our own lines, though we hearkened with ears that would have heard the stealthy tread of the panther,

“The enernay has run,” said some one, exultingly. “Our fire has given him fleet feet to make off.” And just then, as if in answer to this boast, there was the vicious ping of flying lead in the

air, and scme of our men _ dropped screaming to the earth. We delivered another volley blindly into the dark- ness, then waited for the return fire, but it did not come,

Savage at the double disgrace of being fooled and taken unawares, Abou Kur- am orcered a sortie, but the party had not gone 20 yards when another show- er of bullets fell upon us from the op- posite direction. The foe was running round us, peppering us at his will. A Second sortie party was instantly ser:t out, but like the first it came back without making any discovery. Only some said they had seen a terrible ap- parition on a black horse of gigantic size, and that stecd and rider breath-

ed blue flame. So the army stood there, nervously handling its match- locks and supplicating the protection of the prophet. The prophet was evi- dently gracious, for there were no more of these ugly surprises. that right, The foe, content with a moder ate amount of fun, had gone off to chuckle over his success and get up

his ceurage for a big fight.

“I am indeed weary,” Ben Eldad, with unruffied “And it is because of speak in behalf of Koor Ali, for mav I never have the holy joy of sitting in the prophet’s presence if he hath not driven us as if we were things of iron and steel, and not men of simple flesh and blood.”

“It is not proper that my lord should thus add to his weariness,’ interrupted Abou Kuram. “Let him withdraw to my tent and have his feet washed by his servant’s slaves and food set be- fore him and take the rest of which he is so much in need. Koor Ali will | himsif tell his story,” and with an imperative manner that was not to be resisted he led Mohammed ben Eldad Hassam to the retirement of the tent. In a minute he was back again.

““Now,” he said to Koor Ali, draw-

Koor Ali gave his story briefly and clearly. To begin with, he said, they did not find Amood Sinn at the place appointed, an excursion of the man on the black horse and his marauders having driven him deeper into the mountains. This change of situation involved an arduous search of forty- eight hours, and when at last Amood Sinn was found he was skulking among the rocks as if he were a fox, with his army scattered he knew not whith- er.
