Through this Bruce proposed to lead
Kathlyn during the confusion created
by the explosion.
On the day of the ordeal only the
bedridden remained at home.
When Kathlyn arrived she was
placed under the canopy; another bit
of kindly attention on the part of Um-
balla to twist the white man's heart.
But nothing could have happened more
to the satisfaction of Bruce.
"Kathlyn Hare," he sailed out soft-
ly in Spanish, "do you hear and under-
stand me?"
"Yes," she replied In the same
tongue "Do nothing desperate. Don t
throw away your life. 1 have a slater

"Listen. Under no circumstances

the other side. We are not only
going to rescue but save you. Attend

Ahmed had reasoned that the more

horse. He wanted the flying mob to
think that he was flying, too, which.
Indeed, he was. The gharri rolled and
careened like a dory in a squall. A

flung together, and quite unconscious-

That Yankee phrase did more to re-
habilitate her than all his assurances
From time to time Bruce stole a
glance through the curtained window
Stragglers were hastening along c ose
to the walls, and there were soldiers
who had forgotten to bring their guns
from the elephant arena. Once he
heard the clatter of hoofs. A horse
man ran alongside the gharri, slowed
up, peered down, and shrugged. Kath
lyn shrank toward Bruce. The rider
proceeded on his way. Ahmed recog-
nized him as the ambassador from the
neighboring principality, ruled by a
Kumor, who was In turn ruled by the
British raj. Kathlyn could not shut
out the leer on his face.
By mldafternoon the gharri reached
Brace's camp. Ramabal and Pundi-
ta greeted Kathlyn with delight. All
their troubles were over. They had

So did Rajah, who raised his trunk
and trumpeted Into the night. The
mahout, fully awake to the danger,
beat the old rascal mightily with his
goad. Yet that would have failed to
hold Rajah. Bruce averted the dan-
ger by shooting his revolvers Into the
air. The wild animals stampeded, and
Rajah, disgruntled, was brought to the
compass. M
Strange thing about a gunshot,
said Bruce. "They may never have
heard one before; but instinct tells
them quickly of the menace. Years

"No, memsahlb,"—Ahmed gazed at

careened away.
Let us be off!" cried Bruce. "We

"That is true. I have fished and

"Surely! I keep forgetting that its

than I do."
Silence fell upon them again. On, on,
without pausing. Bruce was getting
sleepy himself, so he began munching
biscuits. Lighter and lighter grew the
east; the moon dimmed, and by and by
everything grew gray and the chill in
the air seemed sharpest yet

Here was the confusion, properly
planned, and he could not make use

the soldiers would return out of cu-

But the sight of a Hon emerging
from the murk the wrong side of the
crevasse roused him thoroughly.
"Save yourself!" cried Kathlyn in
despair; "there is no possible way of
saving me. I have never in all my
life injured any one, and yet God
makes me go through all tills. . . •

Bruce laughed; It was that kind of
laughter with which men enter battle.
He drew I.al Singh's revolvers and
thrust one into her hand.
"Shoot at the keyhole. Leave the
lion to me. With the pandemonium no
one will note the shots, or If they do,
will think that more explosions are

The elephants started forward, that

lead, Ramabal and Pundita following
a few yards In the rear.
"Mr. Bruce, I am sure Ahmed has

"I'll return and And out, once I ve

I've been thinking it over. It appears
to me that the king latterly took a dls-

turned this little trick to make him un-
happy. I daresay he thought your fa-

ter" he can go neither forward nor
backward. But poor Ramabai _ back
there will lose his gold for this."
"Ramabai has always been very
kindly to the poor; and the poor man
generally defends his benefactor when
the right time comes. To Umballa
I was only a means to the end. If he
declared himself king, that would
open up the volcano upon which he
stands; but as my prince consort, that
would leave him fairly secure "
"Only a means," mused Bruce in-
wardly, stealing a glance at her sad
yet lovely profile. Umballa was a
man. for all his color; he was human;
and to see this girl it was only human
to want her. "Your father was one of
the best friends I had. But, oddly
enough, I never saw a photograph of
you He might have been afraid we
young chaps. . . ■" He paused em-
barrassedly. "If only you had taken
me into your confidence on board the
Yorck!"
"Ah, but did you offer me the
chance?" ehe returned.
"1 never realized till now that a chap
might be too close lipped sometimes.
Well, here we are, in flight together!"
That night for the first time in many
hours Kathlyn closed her eyes with a
sense of security. True, it was not the
most comfortable place to sleep in, the
howdah; there were ceaseless rollings
from side to side, intermingled with
spine-racking bumps forward aa the

who despised these foollBh beasts. Per-
haps the old elephant missed AH; per-
haps he was still somewhat upset by
his failure to Join his wild brothers
the night before; at any rate, w^o"1
warning, he set off with that shuffling
gait which sometimes carried him aa
swiftly as a horse. An elephant never
trots nor really runs according to our
conception of the term; he shuffles,
scarcely lifting his feet off the Krou°d
The mahout yelled and belabored the
elephant on the skull. Rajah did not
mind this beating at all. Whatever his
idea was, he evidently proposed to see
It fulfilled. Cunningly he dashed un-
der some branches, sweeping the ma-
hout off his neck. The branches with
a crash as of musketry struck the how-
dah but it held, thanks to the stout-
ness of the belly bands and the care
with which they had been adjusted
round the huge barrel.
Bruce stood up, appalled. For a time
he was Incapable of movement. Short
This rare and unexpected freedom,
this opportunity to go whither he j
listed, was as the giant fern he used to j
eat in the days when he was free and j
wild In Ceylon.
Kathlyn called out to the men, but ;
they turned and fled In terror. To them
Rajah waa amuck. The elephant
passed the fire so closely that the w
of his passing stirred the fire Into life
again; and this time it crept toward
the highly inflammable grass A few
hundred yards beyond Kathlyn turned
to see th« flames leaping along the
grass. Rajah, getting a whiff of the
acrid smoke, quickened his stride. The
fire followed with amazing rapidity
and stopped only when it reached the
bed of a trickling stream, no doubt a
torrent during the big rains. A 8r6*
pall of Bmoke blotted out everything in
the rear; blotted out hope, for Bruce
never could pick up the trail now_
Kathlyn's eyes were feverishly dry
and bright. It was only a matter of
time when the howdah would slip
down the brute's side. She prayed that
she might die instantly. Stfange
fancies flitted through her mind, dis-
ordered by all these daya of suspense
and terror. ...
And suddenly the jungle came to an
end, and a long plowed field opened
into view. Beyond this field rose a
ruined wall, broken by a crumbling
gate, and lounging In the gateway
were soldierB. Near by were two ele-
phants employed in piling logs.
Rajah, perforce, slackened his gait
The soldiers became animated. Imme-
diately the two mahouts charged their
brutes toward Rajah, who stopped.
He had had his sport. He swayed to
and fro. One of the mahouts reached
forward and clouted Rajah on the
knee. He slowly kneeled. The sol-
diers ran forward to help Kathlyn out
of the howdah. At the sight of her
skin their astonishment was great.
She was very weak and faint, and
the increasing babel of tongues was
like little triphammers beating upon
her aching head. One of the soldiers
gave her a drink of water. He held
his canteen high, bo that the water
trickled into her mouth; no lips but
his own must touch the nozzle, other-
wise, being a Brahmin, he would be
defiled. Natives instantly flocked
about. Jabbering in wonder. Some of
the bolder touched her bare arms.
The soldiers drove them back angrily.
Through the press a horseman pushed
forward. The rider stared at the
strange captive, started, and uttered
an astonished cry.
"The white queen of Allaha, whom
mine own eyes saw crowned at the
Durbar there!" he murmured. "By the
shroud of the prophet, what can this
mean? Stop!" he called to the sol-
diers. Kathlyn looked up dully.
Convey her to his hlghnesB the ku-
mor!" The prince should decide what
should be done with her.
The kumor was big and lazy ana
sensual. He gazed upon Kathlyn with
eyes which sparkled evilly, like a cats.
"Who is this woman?" he demanded.
"Highness, she is the white queen
of Allaha, but who may say that shei Is
here?" with a smile as evil as his
master's.
"But how came she here?
The horseman briefly recounted the
events as he had seen them in the cap-
ital of Allaha.
"Who are you, maiden?" the kumot
asked In English, for, like all poten-
tates, little or great, in India, he
spoke English. It presented the de-
