r Kathlyn understod by the expres
sion on Umballa’s countenance what
■was taking place. She smiled down at
her enemy.
“So be it, Bala Khan," snarled Um
halla, his rage no longer on the rein.
"In one month’s time I shall return,
and of your city there will not be one
stone upon another when I leave it!”
"One month!” Ramabai laughed.
"Why are you always smiling, Rama
bai?" asked Bruce.
“I have had a dream, sahib,” an
swered Ramabai, still smiling. “Dm
balla will not return here.”
“You could tell me more than that.”
"I could, but will not,” the smile giv
ing way to sternness.
"If I only knew what had become o{
Ahmed,” said the colonel, when the
last of Umbaila’s soldiers disappeared
whence they had come, “I should feel
content.”
“We shall find, or he will find us, if
he is alive,” said Kathlyn. “Now let
Us make ready for the last journey.
Ono hundred miles to the west is the
Arabian gulf. It is a caravan port, and
there will be sailing vessels and steam
ships.” She shook him by the shoul
ders joyously. “Dad, we are going
home, home!”
“Kit, I want to see Winnie!”
The word sent a twinge of pain
through Bruce’s heart. Home! Would
he ever have a real one? Was she to
go out of his life at last? Kathlyn
Hare.
“But you, Ramabai?” said Kathlyn.
"I shall return to Allaha, I and Pun
dlta,” replied Ramabai.
"It will be death!” objected Bruce
and Kathlyn together.
“I think not,” and Ramabai permit
ted one of his mysterious smiles to
stir his lips.
“Ramabai!” whispered Pundita, fear
fully.
"Yes. After all, why should we
wait?”
“I?”
“Even so!”
"What is all this abput?” inquired
Kathlyn.
“Allaha is weary of Umballa's iron
heel, weary of a vacillating Council.
An<J the time has arrived when the

and Bruce.
two must be abolished. A thousand
men await the turn of my hand. And
who has a better right to the throne
of Allaha than Pundita, my wife?"
"Good!” cried Kathlyn, her eyes
sparkling. “Good! And if we can help
you—"
“Kit,” interposed the colonel, "we
can give Ramabai and Pundita only
our good wishes. Our way lies to the
west, to the seaport, and home.”
Ramabai bowed.
And the party returned to the com
pound rather subdued. This quiet
young native banker would go far.
"And If I am ever a queen, will my
beautiful memsahib come back some
day and visit me?"
“That 1 promise, Pundita, though I
have no love for Allaha.”
“We will go with you to the coast,”
said Ramabai, “and on our return to
Allaha will see what has become of
the faithful Ahmed.”
“For that my thanks.” responded the
colonel. “Ahmed has been with me for
many years, and has shared with me
many hardships. If he lives, he will
be a marked man, so far as Umballa
is concerned. Aid him to come to me.
The loss of my camp and bungalow la
nothing. The fact that we are all alive
today ia enough for me. But you,
Bruce; will it hit you hard?”
Bruce laughed easily “l am young.
Besides, it was a pastime for me,
though I went at it In a bualneas way."
“I am glad of that. There is noth
ing to regret in leaving this part of the
world.” Yet the colonel sighed.
And Kathlyn heard that sigh, and
Intuitively understood. The filigree
basket of gems. Of such was the
minds of men.
But the colonel was taken 111 that

considered strong enough to attempt
the journey. Bala Khan proved to be
a fine host, for he loved men of deeds,
1 and this white-haired old man was one
of the right kidney. He must bo
strong ere he took the long Journoy
over the hot sands to the sea.
A spy of Umballa's watched and
waited to carry the news to his mas
ter, the day his master’s enemies de
parted from the haven of Bala Khan's
walled city.
When the day came the khan insist
ed that his guests should use his own
camels and servants, and upon Rama
bai’s return the elephants would be
turned over to him for his journey
back to Allaha. Thus, one bright
morning, the caravan set forth for
what was believed to be the last jour
ney.
And Umballa’s spy hastened away.
All day long they wound In and out,
over and down the rolling mounds of
sand, pausing only once, somewhere
near four o’clock, when they dismount
ed for a space to enjoy a bite to eat
and a dish of tea. Then on again,
through the night, making about sixty
miles in all. At dawn they came upon
a well, and here they decided to rest
till sunset. Beyond the well, some
twenty-five miles, lay the low moun
tain range over which they must pass
to the sea. At the foot of these hills
stood a small village, which they
reached about ten o'clock that night.
They found the village wide awake.
The pariah dogs were howling. And
on making inquiries it was learned
that a tiger had been prowling about
for three or four nights, and that they
had set a trap cage for the brute. The
colonel and Bruce at once assumed
charge. The old zest returned with
all its vigor and allurement. Even
Kathlyn and Pundita decided to join
the expedition, though Pundita knew
nothing of arms.
Now, this village was the home of
the nine brigands, and whenever they
were about they dominated the villag
ers. They were returning from a for
aging expedition into the hills, and
discovered the trap cage with the tiger
Inside. Very good. The tiger was no
use to any but themselves, since they
knew where to sell it. They were in
the act of pulling the brush away from
the cage when they heard sounds of
others approaching. With the suspi
cion which was a part of their busi
ness they Immediately ran to cover to
see who it was.
Instantly the chief of the brigands
discovered that these new arrivals
were none other than the white people
who had given him and his men a
•uperdryg and thereby mulcted them
out of the sacred white elephant
which was to have brought them a
fortune.
Unfortunately, the men of Kathlyn’s
party laid aside their weapons on ap
proaching the cage to tear away the
brush. Eight brigands, at a sign from
their chief, surrounded the investiga
tors, who found themselves nicely
caught
The natives fled Incontinently. So
did Bala Khan's camel men.
“Death If you move!” snarled the
chief. “Ah, you gave us bad opium,
and we dropped like logs! Swine!”
He raised his rifle threateningly.
"Wait a minute,” said Bruce coolly.
"What you want is money.”
"Ay, money! Ten thousand rupees!”
"It shall be given you If you let us
go. You will conduct us over the hllle
to the sea, and there the money will
be given you.”
i The chief laughed long and loudly.
! "What! Am I a goat to put my head
Inside the tiger's jaws? Nay, I shall
hold you here for ransom. Let them
bring gold. Now, take hold,” Indicat
ing the trap cage. "We shall take this
fine man eater along with ua. I am
speaking to you, white men, and you,
pig of a Hindu! Chalu! I will kill
anyone who falters. Opium! Ah, yes!
You shall pay for my headache and the
sickness of my comrades. Chalu! And
yon white woman; she shall give a
ransom of her own!”
The village jutted out Into the des
ert after the fashion of a peninsula.
On the west of It lay another stretch
of sand. They followed the verdure
till they reached the base of the rocky
hills, which were barren of any vege
tation; huge jumbles of granite the
color of porphyry. During the night
they made about ten miles, and at
dawn were smothered by one of those
raging sandstorms, prevalent in this
latitude. They had to abandon the
trap cage and seek shelter In a near
by cave. Here they remained huddled
together till the storm died away.
"Tt has blown Itself out,” comment
ed the chief. Then'he spoke to Rama
bai. “Who is this man?” with a nod
toward the colonel.
"He is an American."
"He came for Allaha?"
"Yes," said Ramabai, unsuspicious
ly-
"Ha! Then that great prince did not
lie.”
"What prince?” cried Ramabai, now
alarmed.
“The Prince Dtirga Ram. Three fat
bags of silver, he said, would he payj
tor the white hunter with the white

lair. It is the will of Allah!”
The colonel’s head sank upon his
knees. Kathlyn patted his shoulder.
“Father, I tell you mind not the
mouthings of a vile guru. We shall
soon be free.”
“Kit, this time, if I return to Allaha,
I shall die. I feel it in my bones.”
“And I say no!”
The chief turned to Rar.iabai. “You
and the woman with you shall this day
seek two camels of the five you bor
rowed from Bala Khan. You will
Journey at once to Allaha. But do not
waste your time in stopping to ac
quaint Bala Khan. At the first sign of
armed men each of those left shall die
In yonder tiger cage.”
“We refuso!"
“Then be the first to taste the tiger’s
fangs!”
The chief called to his men to seize
Ramabai and Pundita, when Kathlyn
interfered.
“Go, Ramabai; It is useless to fight
against these men who mean all they
say, and who are ns cruel as the tiger
himself.”
"It shall be as the memsahib say 3,”
replied Ramabai, resignedly.
• • • • • • •
One morning Umballa entered the
judgment hall of the palace, disturbed
in mind. Anonymous notes, bidding
him not to persecute Ramabai and his
wife further, on pain of death. He
had found these notes at the door of
his zenana, in his stables, on his pil
lows. In hie heart he had sworn the
death of Ramabai; but here was a
phase upon which he had set no cal
culation. Had there not been unrest
abroad ho would have scorned to pay
any attention to these warnings; but
this Ramabai —may he burn in hell!—
was a power with the populace, with
low and high castes alike, and for the
Hrat time, now that he gave the matter
careful thought, his own future did
not look particularly clear. More than
ever he must plan with circumspec
tion. He must trap Ramabai, openly,
lawfully, in the matter of sedition.
Imagine his astonishment when, a
few minutes after his arrival, Ramabai
and Pundita demanded audience, the
one straight of back and proud of look,
the other serene and tranquil! Umbal
la felt a wave of blind hatred surge
over him, but he gave no sign. Rama
bai stated his case briefly. Colonel
Hare and his daughter were being
held prisoners for ransom. Three
bags of sliver—something like five
thousand rupees—were demanded by
the captors.
The Council looked toward Umballa.
who nodded, having in mind the part
of the good Samaritan, with reserva
tions, to be sure. Having trod the
paths of the white roan, he had ac
quired a certain adroitness in holding
his people. They had at best only the
stability of chickens. What, at one mo
ment was a terror was at another a
feast For the present, then, he would
pretend that he had forgotten all about
Ramabai’s part In the various unsuc
cessful episodes.
To the Council and the gurus (or
priests) he declared that he himself
would undertake to assume the part of
envoy; he himself would bring the
legal king of Allaha back to bis throne.
True, the daughter had been crowned,
but she had forfeited her rights. Thug
he would return with Colonel Hare as
Boon as he could make the Journey
and return.
“He is contemplating some treach
ery,” said Ramabai to his wife. “I
must try to learn what it Is.”
In his shop in the bazaars Lai filngh
had resumed his awl. He had, as a
companion, a bent and shaky old man,
whose voice, however, possessed a res
onance which belled the wrinkles and
palsied hands.
“The rains,” said J,al Singh, "are
very late this year. Leather will be
poor.” »
“Aye.”
All of which signified to Ahmed that
the British raj had too many affairs
just then to give proper attention to
the muddle in Allaha.
“But there is thU man Ramabai. He
runs deep.”
"So!”
"Ho has been conspiring for
months.”
“Then why does he not strike?”
."He Is wary. He is wary; a good
sign.” I,ai Singh reached for his pipe
and set the water bubbling. “In a few
weeks I believe all will be ready, even
the British raj.”
"Why will men be sheep?”
Lai Singh shrugged. "Only Allah
knows. But what about this guru’s
curse you say follows the colonel sa
hib?”
"It Is true. I was there,” said Ah
med. “And here am I, with a price oir 1
my head!”
"In the business we are In there will
always be a price on our heads. And
Umballa will bring back the colonel
sahib. What then?”
’’We know what we know, Lai
Singh,” and the face under tba hood
broke Into a smile.
