There was the little aga I Vonce”â€" " “No matter about that now,” said Constantine, interrupting him. “I want you for a special duty. Can I trust you to do me an errand? If you' do it well, you will be glad of it hereafter." “Aye, aye, sire, with my life, and my lips as mute as the horse’s.” "One must get used to it and every other tongue in commanding such a mixed crew as the sultan gathers into his army,” said Constantine. "I captured a girl last night. She knows something I would find out by close questioning. I must have her brought to the rear.” "Aye, the girl Koremi holds?” “Yes, tell Koremi to loiter a little with her until I come up. We must net go far from this defile before I find out what she knows if I have to dis- cover it with my dagger in her heart. for there are traitors among us. Last night there were Arnaouts dressed as Moslems in the fight.” “That I know.” said the soldier, “for I tripped over a fellow myself hiding in the bushes who swore at me in good round Arnaout tongue. I ran him through and found a giaour corselet under his jacket.” Constantine took the ropes which held t1. e horses the man was leading and. bidding him to haste. but be cautious that no one but Koremi should know the message followed slowly behind. It was nearly an hour later when the form of the soldier appeared in the road just before him. “Right!” said Constantine. “Right!” was the response, first to the assumed captain, then repeated to some one behind him. Two other forms appeared. one of them a woman. Anticipating his orders, the second trooper untied a rope from about his own waist and handed it, together with the rein of the horse the woman rode. to Constantines Then. making a low obeisunce. the two troopers withdrew a little distance to the rear. The other end of the rope which Con- stantine held was about the waist of the captive. Drawing the lead horse close to his own and dropping his tur- ban more over his face Constantine closely scrutinized the features of the woman. She was Morsinia. “Where are you taking me? If you have the courage, kill me,” said the tine,‘“but f’hé’fie not retfithetl yet; at least my return must not be known to the troops until the morning.

They had gone but a short distance when they heard the sound of a body of cavalry directly in front of them riding rapidly up the valley. There was no time to avoid the approaching riders either by flight or concealment. Constantine said has- tily: “Remember, if they are Turks, I, too, am a Turk, and you are my captive. If they are friends, all is well. Stay where you are, and I will ride forward to meet them.” allowed the men who had followed them to pass by and sat in silence un- til the lessening sound told them that the soldiers had made another turn in the road. Then, wheeling the horses, Constantine gave loose rein back over the track they had come. After a short Constantine threw or: his turban and stretched his strong arms to lift the captive from her horse. exclaiming with delight in his own familiar tones: “I am no Albanian, dear Morsinia. “Constantinei” she cried. In a few words the mutual stories of the hours of their separation were told. Morsinia had been treated with exceed- ing kindness and respect as the captive of the chief officer or the expedition. who seemed to be a person of some distinction, though she had not seen him. Constantine insisted upon his companion seeking sleep, but by his inquiries did as much as her own thoughts to keep be: awake, so that at the dawn they confessed that the eyes of neither had been closed. The neces- sity of procuring food led them to start at daybreak for the nearest settlement. They descended to the road and re- via:- ha 41ququ and. closely exmn- ining the way, led the horses to one side, up a path and down again to a. little plateau, perhaps a furlong from the main road. where a grazing patch would keep them from being betrayed by the nelghlng. explained m net ucaum5. .. ...._ _- , tofore been dvmed best that the girl should not be made the custodian of her greater part of the problem of her identity.

They had gone but a few paces when the colonel commanding the detach- ment made his way through the troop- ers to the front. He was a venerable man, with long flowing white beard. His bodily strength seemed to come solely from the vitality of nerve and the dominance of his spirit, for he was well worn with years. “What is this noise about?” he asked sternly. Before any could reply he stared with a moment’s incredulity and won- der at Constantine. who relieved his doubts by recognizing him. “Colonel Kabilovitsch!” cried be. “Your men are playful fellows. as frol- lcsome as a cat with a mole.” “But why are you here. my boy. and why this disguise?” interrupted Ka- bilovltsch. The explanation was given in a few wordsâ€"on the one 'side the story of the slaughter at the village and the adven- tures of Morsinia and Constantine; on the other of how the news of the Turk- ish raid reached the camp at Sfeti- grade about noon and the rescuing party had started at once under Kabilo- vitsch's command and ridden at break- neck speed during the entire night in eeting the Turks before rom the narrow valley. Learning now that they were too late for this, Kabilovitsch halted his com- mand and with Constantine sought the where Morsinia was in waiting. ous, and through his incautious words psinia learned more (1 her relation to the voivode Amesa than her reputed father had ever told her, for the my} tery of her family had never been fully explained her hearing.

Bald Kabilovltsch. “but now you have a nooler and stronger protector in our country’s father. the great Castrlot. To him you must go, for it is no longer safe in these lonely valleys. Under his strong arm and all watchful eye you will be amply protected. There are nameless enemies bf the old house of Do Streeses whom we must avoid an vlgl- lantly as we avoid the Turks." It was determined that Constantine should make a detour with her and ap- proach Stetigrade from the south, giv- ing out that they were fugitives from the lower country, which the enemy had also been raiding. The colonel stated to his underot- flcers, in hearing of the men. that the young Turk was really one of Castriot's scouts and that the young woman was an accomplice. Borrowing from one and another sumcient Albanian cos- tumes to substitute for Constantine's disguise, Kabilovitsch dismissed the couple. Two days later a beautiful girl, ac- companied by her brother. who was as unlike her as the thorn bush is unlike the graceful flowering clematis that testoons its limbs, both of them in apâ€" parent destitution, refugees from near the Greek border, entered the town of Sfetigrade. By order of the general, to whom their piteous story was told by Kabilovltsch, for he had chanced. so he said, to come upon them as they were inquiring their way to the town, they were quartered with a tamlly whose house was not far from the citadel. CHAPTER XIII. HE battlements of Stetigrade lay. like a milled collar, upon enormous shoulders of rock rising high above the sur- rounding.country. Over them rose. like a massive head, the citadel with its bartizans projecting as a crown about the brow. The assaults which .Sultan Amurath launched against the place had been as frequent as the early summer showers, and his armies were beaten to pieces as the rain rebounded in spray and ran in streams from the rocks. The chagrin of the bathed sultan reflected itself in the discouragement or his generals and the demoralization or their men. The envy of the leaders or the other corps and branches or the service was excit- ed against the janizaries. to whose un- rivaled training and daring were due whatever minor victories had been won and whatever exploits worthy of men- tion had been performed. “It is a lie!” shouted the age, draw- ing his sword upon him. - , The attitude of the two oflgcers drew a crowd. who rushed from in sides to witness the duel. Both were masters of sword play. so that neither obtained any sanguinary advantage before they were separated by the arrival of the chief aga, who forbade his subaltern to continue the conflict. Upon hearing the occasion of the aifray the chief said: --J' .. wound with green, indicated that his martial zeal was supplemented by eouai enthusiasm for his faith and that ne nau nacho w the mngue Ul main, campaigns against the intideis the toll of a more monotonous though more satisfactory pilgrimage to Mecca.

"A curse on the brag of the janlza- ries! The arrogancy of the Christian renegades needs better warrant than Ballaban can give it," sneered the hey. “I: you like. let the matter rest as it la.

A lofty tent, whose projecting center pole bore the glittering brass crescent and star and before the entrance to which a single horse tall hung from the long spear, denoted the headquar- ters of a sanjnk hey.

Upon this not the cue: mu. m- cushion slightly raised above those at his side. which were occupied by the an of lower rank. --. - -.,-_ The chief aga waved his hand to an attendant. and the military court was formally opened. Several cases were of before that of Captain Bal- laban was called. The expectation not only of common soldiers, but also of oillcials. led them to crane their necks to look at the next comer. Even the ordinary immobile features of the chief relaxed into an expression of anxiety as a young man walked down the aisle made by the reverent receding of the crowd to ei- ther side. He was not graceful in form. His body was.beyond the pro- portions of his legs. though his arms compensated for any lack in the length at his lower limbs. His neck was thick. the head round. with full development or forehead. though that portion of his face was somewhat concealed by the short. bushy masses or red hair which protruded beneath his rimless janizary cap. His face was homely. but strong- ly marked, evinclng force 0! character as clearly as the convolutions or his muscles evinced animal strength and endurance. The brightness of his eye atoned for any lack of beauty in his features. as did his free and manly bearing make ample amends for de- ficiency in grace of form. Altogether he was a man to attract one’s atten- tion and hold it pleasantly. The chief aga announced that. al- though the witnesses in this case were not or the order of the Yeni-Tscheri. and, therefore. had nqelaim to the con- sideration of the court. yet it pleased him in this peculiar ease to waive the right to try the matter exclusively among themselves. that the good name of the Yenl-Tscheri might suffer no reproach. “Caraza Bey." added the chief, “for some reason best known to himself does not accept the privilege we have extended him to speak in our ofliciat presence what he has freely spoken elsewhere. We shall. there- fore. hear any witnesses he may have sent." One Lovltsch, belonging to the irreg- ular auxiliary troops. testified that Captain Ballaban had organized a raid upon an Albanian village and engaged himself and company for the venture. but had left them in the heat of the light. not rejoining them until the sec- ond day. A common soldier deposed that the captain returned to the com- pany early in the second evening and induced him (the witnms) and Koreani. to whom the captain had intrusted a beautiful captive, to bring the girl to the rear under plea of getting from her information regarding the enemy and had then mysteriously disappeared with her. Koremi corroborated this testimony. "65551.1 VBallaban gave a look of pus- zled curiosity as he been! this. but otherwise evinced not the slightest emotion.
