Lord and Lady Mar tindale (Edith Van der Huysen) visit him. Chapter 2.—Lady Martiudale tells Ditour that she does not love her husband, and that the latter knows it. Chapter 3—Latour is likely to have trouble wi h some refractory Arabs encamped near the city. Lord Martiudale is absent for a day or two, but Edith remains at Cairo. Chapter 4.—Latour and Edith go for a night ride on the desert. They confess that they love each other, ami lie kisses her. Chapters.—Lady Martindale goes for an early in irning ride on the des ert and does not return when expect ed. Adrifn and Lord Martindale be gin a search for her. The man screamed something, lost in the msh of wind past Latonr's ears; but he saw tluit Harris was ghastly, exh. ust- ed, with blood streaming down his face. Closer still he came, and again Latour cried fiercely: “Where is she?” Harris steadied himself, pushed back the matted hair from his forehead and shouted; “At the tents!” The flying Arab steed reached the staggering man. Latonr's voice, trnm- I»et clear in the stillness, hurled at him the words; “Help will come! See!” As he spoke ho half turned in the sad dle. The Caliphs’ Torn be. dim and slmdowy now, still glinted the snn from their minarets. But a gasp jumped from his heart to his lips, as he saw u dust cloud rising between. On. still on, until tho Arab camp was plainly seen. And there, was busy movement: but his quick eye told that it was to avoid, not meet,' him. Most of the low, black tents were“already struck and folded, their agile, sinewy owners moving swiftly among them. Foremost of those still standing was the rather taller tent of the sheik. Between this and the nearest tent stood a sleepy, low nosed pack camel; while farther off another kneeled and busy hands piled tents and baggage in his saddle. The Arab mares, each pick eted to a long spear driven in the sand, and with a bag of barley tied about the nose, stood quiet and docile. Loosening tho pistol in his holster, Latour checked his horse by a word, the great stride slackening to a swinging gallop, then coining to a stand at easy bail. .“Peace bo with thee, O sheik!” La tour cried. “And with thee also peace!” the Arab answered. He rose and stood silent as Latour advanced slowly within two paces of his mat. Then ho added: “Alight, O warrior of Ismail the Pasha, and sit beneath my tent.” The whirl and heat had gone from Latonr’s brain now, replaced- by cool, quick resolve. Ho felt craft must meet craft, and this Arab was an adept. Quiet as thougii on parade ho sat, reach ing over to caress tho grand neck of the steed that tore him so gallantly, but really listening to his breathing.

But ere he could grasp his spear the Arab stopped spellbound, as though he gazed into the eyes of the cobra di capello! For, quick as was his gesture, quicker dtill w as that which flashed the pistol through the air. “One word—one sign—is death!" whis pered Latour, in Arabic. Then bracing his left foot in tiie stir rup the Creole stretched his right one to the woman at his side. “Quick! Mount!” he cried to her. “Your life—more—depends upon your courage!” Edith placed her foot on his, grasped the can tie of the saddle, and swung up lightly on the horse without one word. All had passed so rapidly, so calm and low hud been the spoken words, that the stoical Arabs near hud never looked to ward him. And now, as the absent pis tol unlocked Mohammed-bcn-Zizi’s voice, their wondering rush was too late. As he had felt Edith settle upon the horse—and with wondrous presence of mind [>ass her left hand round him, not to shake his pistol arm—Latour called out to Said, and the noble horse sped away over the path he had come. “Hold fast! Stoop low to the right!" Latour cried, bending his own body to the left to give her room. “They may hurl the spears!” But no sound w hizzed by their ears save the wind of their owro rush; and, after a few more bounds, the man raised himself and glanced back. At the tents all was wild confusion—men running for their picketed steeds and tearing the bags from their noses; the sheik himself foremost among them. Under his raised hand Latour scanned the desert. The dust clond rose more distinct, yet full two miles away. But it now advanced more rapidly, as though his need were known. Again he twisted round to scan the camp, now nearly a mile behind. Mounted Arabs had rushed from it. on their fresh mares, spreading out wide over the sand, as is their wont in chase—many a white bonrnoos trail ing on the wind, and sharp spears glit tering in the sun. Before him the mov iug dust cloud was still four times theii der that blazing sun hail scarcely toted * * ‘l** 80 dl ? “ ot the endurance of the Aneyzeh blood.

Only on my way to other duties have I chanced near thy tents.” The Arab's brow clouded, and bis dull j eye grew brighter, as he answered: “As thou sayest, O warrior, so shall it be. Mohammed-ben- Zizi forceth not his salt upon the unwilling, who careth not to eat it, but prefers to stand like a fakeer doing penance, rather than smoke beneath his tent.” Again the Creole answered very slow ly; hot his quick ear and quicker eye were busy, and when he finished his plan was formed upon the information both gave him. “Thou, O son of the desert," he said low and quietly, “art free to do thy ways, but in our army there arc rules that none may break, foot may not accomplished. 8U11, much do 1 marvel, lence. for a half mile more. Then the strained ear of the man caught the cries of numerous pursuers gaming on him. Far to the right and left the cries were clear, while those behind grew fainter, and he knew that the fleetest steeds were deployed to hem him in more surely. Still Latour did not urge his horse, con fident what the grand steed could do, and saving him for yet more urgent need. “Courage!” he whispered to the wo man behind him. “They waste their breath. See! In yonder dust is safety. Ahmed is nearing us.” I He said no more. For dull, but surely, away to the right he caught the muffled thud of hoofs upon the sand. They were gaining rapidly! Had he let them come too near? Once more he urged the horse slightly with touch of stirrup, the sensitive an imal responding with new strength | faster, faster still, until the level sands One'of these commands that “f UyU ‘ K ^^wanl past them!

Swift as he swept along, swifter rushed to Latonr's brain shame, contrition, self ri proach, each in turn shrinking in the bnming memory of that kiss, still tin gling through his veins —of the soft press ure that held him to the heart beating so wildly—if so sinfully—for him! Was he responsible for her mad freak? Had memory driven her forth at dawn, dreading to face the man whose honor she had smirched for his soke? Exactly what the danger was he could not define. To life or limb, surely none; for the Arab of the desert is not of sav age nature, and the first horror—of her capture for sale into some harem—had been dismissed as preposperuus. But were her detention only for ransom, the thought of durance Among savages, no word of whose tongue she knew, made the man grind his teeth in impotence of wrath. Would the escort arrive in time? Not yet, he knew. Still he turned in saddle and glanced back at the Tomb#, now a mile away. There the Arab sat upon his horse, standing high in his stirruiis, his bour- nous fluttering loose. In his right hand ewer of our sovereign unto the sheik of the Bcni-Ali is yet unheard!" So speaking, Latour noted three things. Before the nearest tent sat an aged Arab, who had risen with the sheik. His ex tended arm, lean and black, grasped his ►qx-ar, the houmous falling from it like a curtain before the tent. Moreover, the camel's pack saddle bad been replaced by mats strapped on him for a seat. And at last be noticed one mare, picketed a|iart, a houmous strapped around her, hiding head and sides. While he spoke she whinnied load beneath this hood. Said raised his head, pricked his ears for ward and nickered in reply, but his rider appeared not to note as the sheik replied: "Yesterday said 1 to thee, O warrior of Ismail-ben-Ibrahim, that thy ruler of Mitsraim is no king of the Beni-Ali! For what thou seest here, the way of the Bedonin is the way of the wind. He goeth—even as he cometh—howso he listeth." “Then, ere thou goest. O sheik," La tour said gravely and quietly, “in the name of my king, Ismail Khedive of all Egypt, speak I these words!" He pansed tour's breast; for the double weight, at speed, told heavily on Said, who labored in his stride. And jnst then, for the first time, Edith spoke. “Look to the right,” she said quietly and low. Twisting round, Latour beheld the sheik, scarce three hundred paces off, almost even with him, his magnificent mare bounding along at racing speed. Plainly, he had shaken off the rest in that great burst of speed; but the sheik's mare would not be left, spite of the wide ; detour she made. One glance toward the approaching cavalry—no nearer seemingly in the brief interval—and his hand instinctive ly stretched for his pistol. A dead shot, even at speed, he could easily drop the Arab out of saddle. But that would be declaration of war, and he was the pasha's officer; the Arabs so far having done no hostile act Without time to question her, he had assumed Edith’s capture; but he was certain no violence had been shown her. Through his twain all this flashed like lightning; then over it all rose the glad- satisfaction. Trial bottle free at Willcox & Co’s Drugstore. Bilkins—‘ ‘ f t e r all, the country is the place.

Backing i Said two paces, Latour now raised his clear voice, crying in resonant English: “Courage, Edith! Speak no word, but come—quickly!” "What Sbeitan’s gibberish" The sheik’s exclamation of wonder was cut , short. For, gliding by the old Arab, Edith raised her pround head in the | sunshine.

Then I am safer Latour felt she was close to him, but his eyes never left the shiek’s.
