The deeert oomes up on three Bides to the very walls of Cairo, and it is the desert sand that blows in the streets. No sooner, therefore, were the fugitives. clear of the city than they entered upcn t his gre; t waste of boundleBB and eternal desola.tion, though they had another city yet to ride through before they were free of all that had been man, a city tripling in population the one of three hundred thousand souls which they had just quitted, the poetically Arab named Clty of the Sllent. Frank Donelly had hardly been prepa.red for inva.ding " the still and sombre avenues of the dead but there was no help for it since it la.y dl;eetly in their pa.th, and the h.ct of their being pursued obliged them to take a.11 things as they came. ' Galloping alongside of Nellie he told her this, imd her roply was : "We haveless to fear from the dead than from the living. I have alrea.dy observed what we ii.re coming to and am prepared to brave "it." For all that she spoke so bravely h~r face was almost a.a white as her snowy shoulders {quite as white no face 1111ove that of the moon could h11ove been ) ; and as Pat Monag· han came tearing along behind, ktenly n· joying the excitement ibat ca.used his mas· *er se much uneasiness, he more than' once muttered: "She's a rale beauty a.n' no mistake," Another minute a.nd they were a.mongst t;he streets of the departed, . Thouaande and thousa.nde of l\ilueeulman'e headstones were around a.ud about them, lookini like E quat, oloaked'figures wlth battered he!l.d-dressoe, for the turban of the defunct Moslem i s al· ways placed on the round knob that rises from the shoulders, so to speak, of hie tomb· stone, and there reposes until wind, birds or time, or all three united, ha.ve rni.d~ a.way with it, and not unfrequently the poor or the pr.rsimonioue ma.n whose hea.ogea.r has become shabby takes a w11lk out amongst the tombs in the hope that he ma.y find a better one in exchi:.nge for his own, Amongst these tens of thoue'\llds of leoeer .monumonts, eome of which were painted in bright colors, and nearly covered with Arabic che.raotere, rose here and there handsomer tombs, with high walls, and domes a.nd minarets, that caused them t o look like stunted mosques, whilst e.bove ·many of these waved the sombre fronds of palms, some few of them being almost inclosed in a grove of such. The nature of the ground required wary riding, for there were }toles he.re and there, a.nd 11ometime11 deep rifts, whilst not infre· quently stones and even fragments of mas· onry strewed the way, for the Mo11lem never re-erects or repairs what baa once fallen -down, it beiog contrary to his creed; The poseibiiity of a. fall occurring to Nellie was almost e.n agony to contemplate, so beautiful did she look in her low cut evening dreBB, with its mere inch-wide band for sleeves. ·Oh, if she were to come ora9blng to, the ground and one of those exquisite azureveined r.rms were to be broken, one of thoae plump and snowy shoulders , t o be torn open. .But while the young officer "ontempl11ted with horror the mere poeatbility of a ce.eul · ty happeniDg, even to the extent of almost forgetting the damage of the pursuit, a. per· i1 was o.t h=d · for which both should have .been prepared, though they werenot. Why they should have been prepared wa.9 by reason of the trulyi11fernalchorus of howlings, nownea.r, now far, and then nea.r r.gain, which had for some minutes ea.luted their ea.rs, and ll!hich Frank he.d eet down to hungry jacka.ls saying grace over some 1avory supper tha.t they ba.d exhumed from a more than usuaUy shallow grave . He had not reflected, or perhaps he did did not know, tllt\t wher ever jllckals ~llth er in force "ga.:ffer wolf" Is not for off, though looking ciut for somethnng ·a little more $&· vory, for he, as a rule, does not Ollie to eat his game so high, · Thus it happened that whilst paning one oi' the palm -sheltered t ombs, of which I ha.ve before spoke:=, a huge, gaunt wolf, followed by either hls spouse or hJs dam, oame bounding ont of the gloom and a t cinoe sprllng upon Nellie, whilst its female com· panion made for the young officer. It was t1ien tllat -~'tank Donelly ga.ve vent to a wild scream of terror, and it was not wrung from him by his own per il, 'Jut rather occa.eloned by that of the lovely girl, who at tha.t·moment Wll8 about three lengths in advanoe of him, So excited and a.gita.ted wae he thereat that be never felt the strong jaws and gloaming teeth of the wild bee.st that had fastened upon his leg, but pres~ing his terrined steed forward, he, by rare good fortune (or the speciallnterposltion of Providenoa), ·shot the other wolf just as it was in the aot of making a snap at one of Nellia'a . full, rounded arms. Almost a.t the ea.me insta.nt Pat Mona.g· hlln,. with a boisterous Irish whoop, cl a.shed forward in turn, and, cllusing his horse to mo.ke a demlva.ult, 80 as tq "ive greater force to the descending blow, with one sweep of his sabre cleft In twain the neck of the fierce brute tha.t had assalled hie master, the body dropping to tho ground, but the head, for the full space of ha.If a minute, retaining its hold on its intended prey, just as an ant's often does after it has been lit· erally dismembered by a doughtier or a more powerful r.nta.gonillt. Then, however, t he jaws relaxed a.nd fell, while the greedy eyes gi.ve one llgonized 1-oll before gl azing in death. " My darling, I t rust the brut e's spr ing dld not h llrt you ? ; I can see t hat its teeth did not."

N ow, Nellie." The fair girl took this as a s!gn!!.l to spur on ~g"'in, and did so at once. " TBB RUSSIAN SPY," Sho was surprised a.t the small degree of terror that she felt. She even bughed as It occurred to her how she had on more than one ocoasion oorea.med a.t the sight of a ra.t or a t oad, but the fact ia that a wealthy girl has at all times more ooura.ge than Bhe is sensible of, only it Ilea latent. The r<?Jncontre with the wcilves had ma.de the hones only too a.nxious to place a grea.ter distance between themselves a.nd the dis· ma.I howlinga tha.t ttill surrounded them on all sides, so tha.t no sooner were they given the rein tnan they almost fl~w down and through the broad avenues of the City of the Silent, until at la.st even the tombs of the murdered Mamelukes, with their windows of stl!.lned glass, were left behind, and naught but the ope~ desert lay ~n front, looking In t he moonhght like v. stlll, gra.y, w11oveles1.< l1<oke, of the most vast dimensions, and with pattihea·of moss and an occllsional sllgegreen shrub floating upon its surface. But, cih, the pure, exhilarating alr with which this WllS aoco:npani.,d, an ail'. full of a. strange v.nd mysterious 11weetnoss, so tha.t the very hor.ies dilated their quivering nos· triJo to ca.tch it, u tterlng j:iy ful whinnies the while, a.nd Nellie exclaimed in cheerful toneu to her companion : "No wonder the B~douin loves his wandering life upon the plains better than being cooped up in the cities, I feel as though I had been drink ing champagne." " All the better, dcrlinj?. It jlives me joy to hoar you say so. You are of t he right met tl e for a ~oldior's wife. I decbre, I didn 't think you had it in you." "We never know wha.t qualities we possesa, Frn.nk, until time llnd opportunity brlog them to light, I'm perfectly a9ton iahed t ha.t I'm not frightened out of my very wits. Ha1·k, I hear music in t he dis· ta.nee. W hat clln it be ? ' " I hell.r lt ; too, but I'm sure I cannot oven guoss wha.t it Is, It seems to be made up of timbrels, trumpets and drums. Ca.n you make out anything, Pat Monaghan?" " Oaly t hat flock ov white 11heep over thera, yer honor, Beda.d, it's a. big crowd of thein an' it must be they that's milking a.ll the mnsio somehow." Frank Donelly glanced in the direction of Pat's outatretched a.rm, and he immedfate· ly eja.oula.tod with a laugh. " Well, they do look in the distance like sheep, certainly, b11t I *ink 'tis o. regiment of white uniformed Egyptian soldiers mt\rching towards Ca.fro, and tha.t it their bllnd that we hear." " Faith, yer honor, then I hope they'll put tba.t Toulba Pasha in Queen Street for w11onting to take our swords and pistols a.wr.y, bad oess to him." " I'm afraid tha.t its far more likely to be a mutinous tha.n a. loyal regiment, Pat, but, by Jove, hero comes thoae with whom we a.re more immediately coDoerned. They a.re gaining on us, too, I de · believe. Wh11ot think you?' "Suro, yer honor, I don't fancy that they are. It's only the .distance thats deellving llcroes the sands. But anyhow it's a fa.Ir course and no favor, aud if we let them overtake ua be ja.bers we wlll deaerve all they'll give us," .. Right you are, Pat, rejoined his master cheerfully, a.nd awa.y they stretched aga.ln a.cross the level plain, almost as noiselessly as though they bad been speotres, for there was no thud of the ates! shod hoofs upon the de~ert sand, and they were too exclted any longer to converse. N ellte Trezarr would ever and anon look ha.ck over one of her suowy shoulders to see for herself whethel their pursuers seemed to gain upon them, whenever she imagined that such was the case her cheeks would bla.noh stlll" paler and she would bite her cherry ripe lips wlth her little pellrly teeth in the attempt to master all show of emotion. But such actions revealed rather than concealed lt, so that her lover woµld address to her a few words to cheer her up and restore her wa.ning confidence in their ultimate esoa.pe, and thus still on a.nd on ·they sped, while even the Ci·y of the Silent la.y many a. mile in their reo.r, C HAPTE H, XXIV, T llE DESERT RACE- A DEADLIER FOE XAN, THAIK On, still on, for liberty and perha.ps for dear life as wd l. The perseverance wlth which the Egyp· tian oavalry followed after them convinced Captain Donelly that a. high rewa.rd ha.d been offered for the recovery of Nellie, either by her parents or. by the war minis· t er, or perhaps unknown to either by both. And it wa.a the brave but reckless P at Monaghan who ha.cl put these sleuth hounds upon the right scent. That was a fact beyond question, but Frank never upbra.ided his humble but faithful follower for the blunder that he ha.d m:Mie, for he knew that it was a mere blunder at the moet. As for Pa.t himself, he enjoyed tho excite· ment of the headlong chase still, never troubling to r eflect how It would end, but making up his mind t ha.t somehow or other they would get awa.y from their pun uers. H is mastei; folt by no means as sure of this, for he was painfully conscious that two of their horses were too large a.nd heavy for a. prolonged desert flight, plunging at each stride too deeply in the Sllnd that the llthebodled, sma.11 hoofed and evidently unshod Aro.bians of their pursuers juat skimmed o.nd that wae all, True, the number of their pursuers bad diminished to nine, but nine is long odds against two, especially when armed with lance against sword, and though Pa.t had a la.nee alao, he.

As they stlll aped am::oss t he gray, unruffled sea. of sand }' rank Donelly's hea.rt grew hov.vy within him, )nd every time h e glano· ed back (and these rearward glances grew more frequent every quarter of lln hour ), the twinkling spear point s, t he r ed t:i.r bouches, the du, ky, sinister facea, t he white uniforms a.nd t ossing hellds of the Egypt ian ca.valry seemed to bave l'pproa.ched nearer and n e:i.rer, whilst at last even the over-san guine P at Mona.ghan betook himself to the a;i,mo way of thinking, imd muttered to himself half aloud · "Be Se.int Pathrick, an' if it wasn't for t he young leddy, wouldn't ths ca.pta.in a.1J' metJilf je3t enj oy it, 1u.d t hat's all.

I'm nna.ccuatomed to these reeions. It can't hurt ue, anyway." The lovi'iig girl made no an.e wer at t he time, though truth to tell her lover's remark dld not a.tall tend to reassure her. Ia silence ahe more fearfully regarde~ thll.t mysterious something which she ha.If saw and half felt was before th· m th1.m the more certa.in peril that was fa.st oomivg up with them from behind. She noticed the entire hea.vene rapidly reddening, as with a dull, lurid a.nd yet faintounset glow, whilst in the far di.eta.nae, where the desert horizon he.d hitherto been sharply defined a.gainat the until now dark Indigo blue of the sky, she beheld wb at appeared like a brick· colored fog, advllacing ellently a.cross the llpparently boundless pl&ln. . A few minutes more and she knew that she was not miata.ken, but by that time the fog more nea.rly resembled onrolling clouds of dense smoke, with here and there the red flame of cannon flaahing through, A roar llleo as ot many oa.nnon, yet perhaps mo?e like the continuous rumbl·l of t hunder :i.mongat mountains, ca.Re from its rear, a.nd eo terrified now did Nellie become thi:.t she found it impossible to help gasping out: "Oh, God ! aomethbig terrible \s about to bt1:ppen, I feel eure that there le doath to us a.U in yonder cloud. Dt a.th from which there is no esc11pe." Fr&.nk Donelly, impre11sed by those fe11orsome words and the tenor with which they were'uttered, for the first time bestowed his r ea.l attention on what, hitherto deem· ing to be an imaginary p eril, he ha.d taken little notice of. E ven then, blind, unthinking soldier that h'll was, the eight might not have much im· preseed bim had p.ot Pat Mona.gha.n suddenly exolaimed : " .Bedad, an' if they haen't left us In pace afther all, an' just too whin, 'pon my sowl, I thought they was getting the bes~ av it, the poor, miserable, mane-spirited ne.ygurs.

But whilst l'a.t w11s entiroly engrossed by tho strange conduot of his horse, Captain Donelly compared ita actions wlth the endden and headlong retreat of the Egyptian ca.valry Cairoward, and with the swift ad· vtl.nce from the boundless desert of tha.t dun. colored cloud with the seeming fla.shes of red artillery flame gleaming through, a.nd there immedla.tely occurred to him a memory ~f aomething that he he.d r ead in books when a. boy by the cheerful fireside a.thome, a.nd the recollections bla.nched every vestige of color from hie cheeks in the twinkling of an ey.;,. c· Nellie," said he curtly, "we muot change our course, We mu.gt ride this Wily." . As he spoke he seized hold of her bridle and tuin°d her horse'e head half round, a.t \he sllme time pointing towa.rd the neigh· boring mountains, He knew tha.t could they bnt ga.in their lower slopes before the fearful sirocco, still many miles away, could sweep down upon them and overwhelm them with its columns and its clouds of hot, burning sa.nd, they would be eo.fe. H e really thought tha.t they would be able to do it at the time. Awa.y they went, therefore, at right angles to their former couree, and Pa.t's horse was now docile enough, though evi· dently very far still fram being at its ease, a.a a frequeot 11la.intive whinny and now llnd then a kind of hoarse shrieking snort sufficiently te2tified t o its rider, As for Pat himcelf, he wa.s In a. complet e state of bewilderment as to wbe.t it a.II mea.nt and as to what had caused his master to t t1rn so white all of a sudden, but unquestioning obedience is the first lesson in tbe Britls\ army, and P a.t followed on silently, as in duty bound. A~ i o the lovely girl, she was silent for another rea..eon, namely, bees.use she was afra.id to ask tho nature of the new dl'ngor that threatened. True, sb.e alrea.dy gmsaed lt, but ohe did not wish her suspicions to be confirmed, fot she felt that the more hope tha.t she'd entertain the better. But, oh, how oppressive the heat had be· come, for another kind of breeze bad by noon sprung up, a breeze ao hot, and dry, llnd withering in its natur e tha.t it seemed to ol:struot the very breat hing, so that op· pressed thereby Nellie's fair and expllnded chest heaved like th11ot of an exhausted runner. "My darling, for G od's sake bear up. The mounta.ine are very near," " Yes, but I can no longer see them, Frank. We set m to me to be sailing through the clouds instead ef traversing the ea.rtb. Oh, it is terrible !" Sailing through clouds? Ala.a, when he looked up again from that bea.utiful e.nd glowing bust the same sensation struck him. The storm was sweeping down upon them ln creociroula.r form, and one horn thereof had already concelled the hills with its muddy mist. Another minute a.nd It seemed as though sand, and sky, and air glowed with the light ofa confl&gra.tion, whilst assuredly the hes.Ii of one was about and a.round them, and t he roaring noise of one pounding in their ea.rs as t hey still tore onwards. " Bedad, an' la it the world t hat's t uk fire at la.at, loike as 't ho pralsta t ell ov?

B ut I have wondered ciften since, how tha.t sentenoa wa.s finithed. Did the ooy say," If I were rich, I wouldn't enub my poor relations ;" or, " If I were rich, I wouldn't spend all my money on myself ;" or, " If I were rich, I wouldn't work any more," or what ? W e cannot know, but there is one thing quite certain, Whatever tho boy does now l"i 0 TE TD E F 0 L L 0 WING: th&.t be is poor, he would do If he were rich. If he is gener ous now, he would be gener ous then. If h<l is mean now, he would be me11on then. If be works faithfully nciw, ho would work with fidelity then.

Those precious t reaeures th<>t blivhten our lives Grow brl~hter atl:l as nbey vanish for ave, For Death'a deep shadows the spirit eurvlvee, While we shed onr grief on the mould of clay, We toll at our wearisome task e·ch d<>y Till the lips growcold and the voico growa dumb, And we drift fr<m the present lite away To the unknown shores cf the life to come. And the myetl~ touch of t he spirit band s Thl>t falls on the heart Is the magic link Th·t guides our feet through the bu·nin~ sande Till 1hey rest in peace at the rlvei's brink.
