FRIDAY, AUGUST 27

(Continued from Yesterday.)
" At" tho bungalow everything was
systematically being prepared for the
homeward journey. The laughter and
chatter of the two girls was music to
their father’s ears. And sometimes he
intercepted secret glances between
Bruce and Kathlyn. Youth, youth;
youth and love! Well, so it was. He
himself had been a youth, had loved
and been loved. But he grew very
lonely at the thought of Kathlyn
eventually going into another home;
and some young chap would soon come
gnd claim Winnie, and he would have
no one but Ahmed. If only he had had
a boy, to bring this bride to hta father’s
roof!
Pictures were'taken down from the
walls, the various wild animal heads,
and were packed away in strong boxes.
And Ahmed went thither and yon, a
hundred cares upon his shoulders. He
was busy because then he had no time
to mourn Lai Singh.
Bruce’s camp was, of course, in ut
ter ruin. Not even the cooking uten
sils remained; and of his men there
was left but AH, whose leg still caused
him to limp a little. So Bruce was
commanded by no less person than
Kathlyn to be her father’s guest till
they departed for America. Daily
Winnie rode Rajah. He was such a
funny old pachyderm, a kind of clown
among his brethren, but as gentle as a
kitten. Running away had not paid.
He was like the country boy who bad
gone to the big city; he ngver more
could be satisfied with the farm.
The baboon hung about the colonel’s
heels as .a dog might have done; while
Kathlyn had found a tiger cub for a
plaything. So for awhile peace reigned
at the camp.
They found the much-sought docu
ment in the secret chamber in Um
balla’s house (just as he intended they
should); and the king had it legally
destroyed and wrote a new will, where
in Pundita should have back that
which the king's ancestors had taken
from hers —a throne.
After that there was nothing for
Colonel Hare to do but proceed to ship
his animals to the railroad, thence to
the ports where he could dispose of
them. Never should he enter this part
of India again. Life was too short.
High and low they hunted Umballa,
but without seccess. He was hidden
well. They were, however, assured
that he lingered in the city and was
einisterly alive.
Day after day the king grew stronger
mentally and physically. Many of the
reforms suggested by Ramabal were
put into force. Quiet at length really
settled down upon the city. They be
gan to believe that Umballa had fled
the city, and vigilance corresponding
ly relaxed.
The king had a private chamber,
the window of which overlooked the
garden of brides. There, with his sher
bets and water pipe he resumed his
old habit of inditing verse in pure
Persian, for he was a scholar. He
never entered the zenana or harem;
but occasionally he sent for some of
the women to play and dance before
him. And the woman who loved Um
balla was among these. One day she'
asked to take a journey Into the ba
zaars to visit her sister. Ordinarily
such a request would have been de
nied. But the king no longer cared
what the women did, and the chief
eunuch slept afternoons and nights,
being only partly alive in the morn
ings.
An hour later a palanquin was., low.
ered directly beneath the king’s win
dow. To his eye it looked exactly like
the one which had departed. He went
on writing, absorbed. Had he looked
closely, had he been the least suspi
cious ... 1
This palanquin was the gift of
Durga Ram, so-called Umbajla. It had
been built especially for this long
waited-for occasion. It was nothing
more nor less than a sunning cage In
which a tiger was huddled, in a vile
temper. The palanquin bearers, friends
of the dancing girl, had overpowered
the royal bearers and donned their
costumes. At this moment one of the
bearers (Umballa himself, trusting no
one!) crawled stealthily under the
palanquin and touched the spring
which liberated the tiger and opened
the blind. The furious beast sprang
to the window. The king was too as
tonished to move, to appreciate his
danger. From yon harmless palan
quin this striped fury!
The tiger in his leap struck the
lacquered desk, broke it and scattered !
the papers about the floor.
Ramabal and his officers were just,
entering the corridor which led to the
chamber when the tragedy occurred.
They heard the noise, the king’s cries.
When they reached the door sllenoe
greeted them.
The room was wrecked. There was
evidence of a short but terrific strug
gle. The king ley dead upon the floor,
the side of his head crushed In. His
ttfl-ban and garments were In tatters.
But he had died like a king; for in the
corner by the window lay the striped
nrye. a U-weled. darker in fclS.liir.riAL. .
The Adventures of Kathlyn
By HAROLD MAC GRATH
Illustrated by Pictures from tbe Moving Picture Production of the Selig Polyscope Co.
Ttamabai was first 'to dfscover The
deserted palanquin, and proceeded to
investigate. It did not take him more
than a minute to understand what had
happened. It w r as not an accident; it
was cold-blooded murder, and back of
it stood the infernal ingenuity of one
man.
Thus fate took Allaha by the hair
again and shook her out of the pas
toral quiet. What would happen now?
This!
On the morning after the tragio
death of the old king, those who went
early to worship, to propitiate the gods
to deal kindly with them during the
day, were astounded to find the doors
and gates of all the temples closed! ,
Nor was any priest visible in his usual
haunts. The people were stunned. For
there could be but one interpretation
to this act on the part of the gurus:
tho gods had denied the people. Why?
Wherefore? Twenty-four hours passed
without their learning the cause; the
priests desired to fill them with ter
ror before they struck.
Then came the distribution of pam
phlets wherein it was decreed that
the populace, the soldiery, all Allaha,
in fact, must bow to the will of the
gods or go hereforth accursed. The
gods demanded the reinstatement as
regent Durga Ram; the deposing of
Ramabal, the infidel; the fealty of
the troops to Durga Ram; 24 hours
were given the people to make their
choice.
Before the dqprs of ail the temples
the people gathered, walling and pour
ing dust upon their heads, from Brah
min to pariah, from high caste ma
trons to light dancing girls. And when
the troops, company by company, be
gan to kneel at the outer rim of these
gatherings, Ramabal dispatched a note
to Colonel Hare, warning him to fly at
once. But the messenger tore up the
note and flew to his favorite temple.
Superstition thus won what honor,
truth and generosity could not hold.
Allaha surrendered; arid Umballa
came forth.
All this happened so quickly that not
even a rumor of It reached the colo
nel's bungalow till It was too late.
They were to have left on tbe mor
row. The king dead, only a few minor
technicalities stood in the way of R&-
mabai and Pundita.
Bruce and Kathlyn were fencing
one with the other, after the manner
of lovers, when Winnie, her eyes wide
with fright, burst in upon them with
the news that Umballa, at the head of
many soldiers, was approaching. The
lovers rushed to the front of the bun
galow In time to witness tbe colonel
trying to prevent the Intrusion of a
priest.
“Patience, sahib!’* warned tbe
priest.
The colonel, upon seeing Umballa,
made an attempt to draw his revolver,
but the soldiers prevented him from
carrying into execution bis wild im
pulse.
The priest explained what had hap
pened. The Colonel Sahib, his friend
Bruce Sahib and his youngest daugh
ter would be permitted to depart in
peace; but Kathlyn Memsahlb must
wed Durga Ram.
When tho dazed colonel produced
the document which bad been legally
canceled, Umballa laughed and de
clared that he himself had forged that
particular document, that the true,
which he held, was -not legally de
stroyed.
Burning with the thought of re
venge, of reprisal, how could Durga
Ram know that he thus dug his own
pit? Had he let them go he would
have eventually been crowned, ae sure
ly as now his path led straight to the
treadmill.
Ahmed alone escaped, because Um
balla had la his trlnmph forgotten
him!
CHAPTER XXIII.
A Woman Boorned.
There Is an old saying In Rajput
that woman and tbe four winds were
born at tbe same time, of tbe same
mother: blew hot, blew cold, balmily
or tempestuously, from ail points at
once. Perhaps.
In tbe zenana of tbe royal palace
there was a woman, tali, lithe, with
a skin of ivory and roses and eyes as
brown as tbe husk of a water chestnut.
On her bare ankles wers gem-in
crested anklets, on her-arms bracelets
of hammered gold, round her neck a
rope of pearls and emeralds and ru
bbles and sapphires. And still she was
not happy.
From time to time her fingers
strained at the roots of her glosey
black hair and the whites of her greet
eyes glistened. She bit her lips to
keep back the sobs crowding In her
throat She pressed her hands to
gether so tightly that the little knuck
les cracked.
“Al, si!" she fWalled softly.
Bhe paced the confines of her cham
ber with alow step, with fast step; or
leaned against the wail, her face hid
den In her anna; or preased her hot
cbeeka against the cool marble of the
lattice- . ,
(Copyright by Harold MacQrsUi)
’ Human nature is made up of con
traries. Why, when we have had the
courage coolly to plan murder, or to
aid or suggest it, why must we be
troubled with remorse? More than
this, why must we battle against silly
Impulse to tell the first we meet what
we have done? Remorse: what is it?
Now, this woman of the zenana be
lieved not in the God of your fathers
and mine. She was a pagan; her
heaven and hell were ruled by a thou
sand gods, and her temples were filled
with their images. Yet this thing re
morse, was stabbing her with its hot
needles, till no torture devised by man
could equal It.
She was the poor, foolish woman
who loved Durga Ram; loved him as
these wild Asiatic women love, from
murder to tho poisoned cup. Loved
him, and knew that ho loved her not,
but used her for his own selfish ends.
There you have it. Had he loved her,
remorse never would have lifted its
head or raised its voice. And again,
had not Umballa sought the white
woman, this butterfly of the harem
might have died of old age without un
burdening her soul. Remorse is tbe
result of a crime committed uselessly.
Humanity is unchangeable, for all its
variety of skins.
And here was this woman, wanting
to tell some one!
Umballa had done a peculiar thing:
he had not laid hand upon either Ra
mabai or Pundita. When asked the
reason for this generosity toward a
man who but recently put a price on
his head, Umballa smiled and ex
plained that Ramabai was not only
broken politically, but was a religious
outoast. It was happiness for such a
person to die, so he preferred that Ra
mabai should live.
Secretly, however, Ramabal’s revo
lutionary friends were still back of
him, though they pretended to bow to
the yoko of the priests.
So upon this day matters stood
thus: the colonel, Kathlyn, Bruce and
Winnie were prisoners again; Ahmed
was in hiding; and Ramabal and his
wife mocked by those who once had
cheered them. The ingratitude of
kings is as nothing when compared
to the ingratitude of a people.
A most ridiculous country: to crown
Kathlyn again (for the third time!)
and then to lock her up! Next to
superstition as a barrier to progress
there stands custom. Everything one
did must be done as some one else
had done it; tbe initiative was still
chained up In the temples, it belonged
to the bald priests only.
But Umballa had made two mis
takes: he should have permitted the
white people to leave the country and
given a silken cord to the chief eunuch
to apply as directed. There are no
written laws among the dark peoples
that forbids the disposal of that chat
tel known as a woman of the harem,
or zenana. There are certain cus
toms that even the all powerful Brit
ish raj must ignore.
The catafalque of the dead king
rested upon the royal platform. Two
troopers stood below; otherwise the
platform was deserted. When Rama
bai and Pundita arrived and mounted
the platform to pay their last respects
to a kindly man, the soldiers saluted
gravely, even sorrowfully. Ramabal,
for his courage, his honesty and jus
tice, was their man; but they no
longer dared serve blin, since it would
be at the expense of their own lives.
“My lord!” whispered Pundita,
pressing Ramabal’s hand. “Courage!”
For Pundita understood the man at
her side. Had he been honorless, she
would this day be wearing a crown.
“Pundita, they hissed us as we
passed.’’
“Not the soldiers, my lord.”
“And this poor man! Pundita, he
was murdered, and I am powerless to
avenge him. It was Umballa; but
what proof have I? Nona, none. Well,
for me there is left but one thing: to
leave Allaha far good- We two shall
go to some country where honor and
kindness are not crimes but virtues."
"My lord, It Is our new religion."
"And shall we hold to It and go, or
repudiate it and stay?”
“I am my lord’s chattel; but I
should dospise him If he took the base
course,"
“And so should I, flower of my
heart!” Ramabal folded his arms and
stared down moodily at the man who,
had be lived, could have made Pun
dita his successor. “Pundita, I have
not yet dared tell you all; but here,
in the presence of death, truth will
out. We cannot leave. Confiscation
of property and d&atb face us at every
gate. No! Umballa proposes to crush
me gradually and make my life a hell.
No man who was my frleod now dares
receive me in his house. Worship is
denied us, unless we worship In secret.
There is one pathway open." He
