CHAPTER V.
The battle (considering the romantic
environment) did not amount to much.
Meryon began It with two Impulses,
both foolish. The llrst was to put him
self between Terah nnd danger which,
since they were both already sur
rounded by the enemy, was impossible
except he formed himself into a hollow
Hquare, which is well known to be im
practicable. Ills next idea was to
swallow the hollow ruby, which would
have resulted, had he accomplished it,
in his being cut asunder like u bean pod,
for the sake of what was inside, lie
put his hand to his pocket und felt the
ruby there, but it had clipped through
a hole and lodged In the linnlng. While
lie was frantically fishing fur it, he
heard Terah cry out; the memory of
Ids dream Hashed over him but where
were the black mountains and the em
broidered eagle? He felt a burning,
numbing sensation In his right shoul
der and would have fallen over back
ward but that he was sent the other
way by a bang on the back of the head;
after which he knew nothing.
Heath is said to be u painless opera
tion; when Meryon came to himself he
was assured of continued existence by
the exeiiitiating discomfort which he
Buttered. He was in a small dark place

the cave In the hg rock, as he
rightly surmised with a gag in his
mouth, a bullet wound In his shoulder,
a gash In the back of his head and a
splitting headache. A raging thirst be
set him, hiding from him the fact that
he was also fainting with hunger.
The first thing he did was to feel in
his pocket. The ruby (as he expected;
was gone.
In his groping, however, his hand
came in contact with his canteen,
which he had filled at the spring just
before Terah's arrival. After a fierce
struggle he succeeded In getting his
gag off and took a drink the best drink
he ever had, before or after. Why had
he been gagged at all? Why shut up in
the rock? There were several perplex
ing features about this affair. Mean
while he was not going to submit with
out a struggle to being burled alive.
got to his feet and dragged himself
to the doorway of the cave, revealed by
gleams of light coming through chinks,
and found it stopped by a mass of rock.
With all his remaining might he gave
this roek a kick; to his astonishment It
fell outward, being only a slab resting
against the aperture; he staggered over
it, out into dazzling daylight, and into
the arms of a man In European dress,
who exclaimed In some surprise:
"Hullo, Fred Meryon! I might have
known it would be you," in the voice
of his old friend, Horace Chase, the
surgeon. Meryon said: "Great Scott,
Horace:" and fainted not being an or
iental. The meeting had come about thus:
The English had a "post" In the capital
of our prince's ally, and hearing that a
row was brewing between the two
other principalities, sent a detachment
out to stop it. Chase went with it to
cut off arms and legs in case anyone
was injured. After transactions which
do not concern us, they got on the
trail of a marauding party and cap
tured them with their booty, among
which was a young person dressed like
a boy, but a girl underneath. She said
she was a princess, and told a queer
tale, in consequence of which they kept
on until they came to the tall, conical
rock, and were about to investigate it
when It opened and out popped Mer
yon, as we have seen.
Among the prisoners was a fat oil
person whom the princess denounced
as her father's chief eunuch, a fugitive
from Justice, nnd the shooter of her
lover. This creature, upon interroga
tion, denied not only what was charged
against him, but, most shrilly of all,
something which was not, namely, that
he had taken the hollow ruby. Fur
ther inquiry developed that he had got
togeter his band of cutthroats osten
sibly to waylay Meryon and capture
the princess, who was to bo hold
for ransom; but he himself had secret
knowledge of the ruby, and designed
to get that for himself. Accordingly he
had shot Meryon, gagged him lest hi!
recover and swallow the stone, and de
posited the body in the rock, meaning
to sneak back unobserved and hunt for
the Jewel at his leisure. Fate had then
stepped In and laid him by the heels as
narrated.
What was the hollow ruby? the Eng
lishmen wanted to know. Terah told
them; though It was news to her that

Meryon had had it In his keeping.
Where, then, was the ollow ruby now?
Hutinat was not only searched out
wardly, but fed for a day or two on a
diet of castor oil and soapsuds, to no
purpose. Meryon's clothes he Indus
still unconscious In the delirium of fe
ver were examined; und they even
sent back and searched the cell In the
roek. The ruby was not to be found.
At this juncture Meryon cume to him
self, leurued from his friend Chase
what had been going on, and spake, it
should be premised that the English
had brought their prisoners to a city of
the hostile country; and that Terah had
become an object of general admira
tion. "That old swine Hatipha has It, de
pend on it," said Meryon.
"We can cut him open. There's noth
ing else left to tlo to him," said the
always low-voiced and undemonstra
tive Chuse in a dreamy, professional
tone, "But 1 fancy you swallowed it
yourself."
"With that gag in my jaws? Hut 1
see your game. You want to incise my
epigastrium and get the glory of an
operation. All right. Unly, mind you,
if ever 1 get well again, I'll give yon
such a licking as"
"Don't excite yourself; I won't risk
it, then, for my operations ulways suc
ceed; Thin wound of yours is enough
for tile present."
"Why not try the experiment of re
moving the bullets?" growled Meryon,
testily.
"Dear boy. it just went in at one
door and out at the other. Here's the
aperture of exit at tho back."
" can feel It all the same. Why
doesn't my princess come and nurse
me?"
'"Your princess?'5' Chase repressed a
smile. "She's busy."
"Waht the devil do you mean?"
'"Look here, my boy," said Chase,
gently, "don't agitate yourself but
what is she, anyway? You were al
ways a fool about gil ls It's your tem
perament, you know; but you can
hardly be quite such an imbecile as to
mean anything serious with her?"
"Dr. Chase, 1 consider your remarks
damned insulting! I want no more of
'em! I shall niary the princess nnd
take her to New York, and whoever
doesn't pay her proper respect as my
wife, will regret, do you understand!"
The surgeon was Imperturbable.
"You should have had her boxed up In
tile harem and expressed through to
your New York residence, and married
her as she stepped out; and afterwards
keep her in the meat-safe, or some
equally cool and secure retreat. For,
to be frank with you, she has been car
rying on here in a manner that may be
natural to an oriental princess with a
taste for variety long repressed and
finally indulged, but which, were she
my lianeee, would make a murderer
and suicide of me in five minutes. Why.
you great red-headed calf, if she'd been
able she would have been married by
this time to the entire detachment,
from the drummer-boy to the captain.
You can punch my head, you know,
but I'm giving you culd facts. Of
course I don't blame her who would?
It's the way she's made, and would be
just right in a Xautch-girl but as
Mrs. Fred Meryon, of Murray Hill and
I'.eacon street, eh? Come, man, swal
low your medicine"
"Are you giving me. this straight?"
Inquired Meryon, after a short and
pregnant silence.
"Straight and cold; and a good bit di
luted, too!" .
There was another silence long and
jneditative. "Poor little thing!" at last
muttered the artist. "It's my fault.
To many her would make It worse.
We don't understand these eastern
women their warm blood or their cold
blood, either, liut now she has found
out what freedom Is, it would be cruel
to take her back to be shut up again.
Still, what else . . ."
"We'll take her back and see if some
thing nice can't be done for her," said
Chase; "meanwhile I'll see she gets
Into no mischief here; and do you keep
quiet ami get that shoulder healed."
A week later they set out anil pro
ceeded by easy stages, carrying Meryon
on a palanquin. Terah and Hatipha
were of the party, much against the
will of both. liut whereas Hatipha's
only objection was that he would be
Hayed and Imoaled at the end of the
trip, tile poor little princess had to tear
out of her heart some thirty or forty
vigorous young flirtations. It may be
stated here that during the first night's
encampment this young lady disap
peared, and with her a handsome young
camel-driver and a camel; and there Is
reason to think that she hns been liv
ing happily ever since.
I'pon arriving at the prince's palace,
they found changes.
It appeared, In the first place, that
the princess, the mother of Terah, hav
ing been taken very III of a dropsy and
at the point of death, summoned the
prince to a private Interview at which
she Informed hhn that Terah was not
his daughter, but that as compensation
Ebal, who had been brought up as a
slave, was In truth his lawful son anil
heir. This remarkable likeness to
each other was due to their both favor
ing their mother. The. lady further
explained that her Infidelity and decep
tion had been carried on In retaliation
for a disappointment the prlneu had
given her, some fifteen years before, In
the matter of a box of sweetmeats.
She died, with a smile of satisfaction,
Just as the' executioner whom the
prince had lost not an Instant In send-

Ing for, arrived with his bowstring
too late!
Hut his highness was Indignant, and
somebody must be impaled. He sent
for Terah. It was then discovered for
the first time that she had eloped with
Meryon, and left the slave boy Ebal
now tho true prince In her place. The
latter was brought to his father, ex
pecting Instant death; but as his high
ness needed an heir and had no other,
he was forced to spare him. He sent,
however, for the father of Terah, who
ever he might be.
The messenger learned that he used
to be a gardener In the service of the
harem, and that he hud died a natural

slaughtered, and at once; but whom?
No one who had offended the prince
could be got at, and nobody who could
be got at would offend him. ills high

other words, this great and worthy
potentate expired of an apoplexy In the
midst of his trembling courtiers, who
instantly, with hosunnas of joy, pros
trated themselves at the feet of tho
astonished Ebal nnd proclaimed him
their ruler.
To Be Continued.
T11L HASIS OF MATTER.
Discovery of a New Clement Opens Up
l.urgo Possibilities.
From the New York Sun.
The existence of another element n
the atmosphere, announced last sum
mer but received with a good deal of
Incredulity, has now been fully dem
onstrated. The new element has been
named argon by its discoverers, Lord
Kuylelgh and Professor Kumsoy. There
is still some doubt whether this
strange. Inert gas, which defies some
of the best known laws or physics, con
sists of one or two primary elements.
The discoverers have finally succeeded
In separating it from the atmosphere
on a largo scale and have sent a por
tion to Professor Crookes, the eminent
spectroscopist, und a portion to Dr.
Olszewski, of the University of Cra
cow, to liquefy and solidify. These
great authorities have found that the
new substance gives a spectrum of Us
own and has its own boiling point,
freezing point, critical temperature,
and critical pressure, that are all differ
ent from those of any other element.
One of Its properties is its invincible
reluctance to combine with anything
else. It will have nothing to do with
oxygen, chlorine, phosphorus, sodium,
platinum, or various other substances,
Even the electric arc does not make it
take companionship with anything.
One Important quality Is a great puz
zle. All the heat given to the new sub
stance produces only the motion of
translation. In another respect argon
presents difficulties. The great Itus
sian chemist, Mendelejeff, has discov
ered an empirical law which associates
the properties of elements with their
atomic weights. Now the new element
has a density of "!l or 40, which does not
fit this law. Argon gives two spectra,
the red and the blue, and it is this
which raises a doubt whether the Inves
tigators are dealing with one or two
substances. If the latter should prove
true, then there Is a new vista opened
up, and It is suggested perhaps one of
these substances will prove to be Pro
fessor Crookes' Ideal protylo, the ulti
mate basis of matter from which all
others are only combinations.
Lincoln on ;i:n yshlrg.
'I ho Omniscient Matthew Arnold Hud
Never Heard of It.
A correspondent writes to the New
York Sun as follows: I remember talk
ing with Matthew Arnold, when he was
In this country, about Abraham Lincoln
you will remember that he snld of
Lincoln that he had no "distinction"
and I called his attention to the (leltys
burg speech. I shall never forget the
Imperturbable Saturday Ilevlew stare
with which he asked: "Ah, what Is the
Gettysburg speech?"
lie had never heard of It. I believe
when he went back he asked Professor
P.ryce what It was about, and when It
was hunted up in nn American school
book and shown to him, he rend it hast
ily and put It away with a commiserat
ing reticence.
Suppose you ask M. llourget, who Is
looking inlo the American heart by the
wuy of the American bodice, and on
space rates, If he has read the (lellyw
burg speech. 1 happen to know of my
own knowledge that Hubert Louis
Stevenson hni not heard of It when he
was exploring our continent, and Sir
Lepel C.rlllin and Hudyurd Kipling had
an Idea that It was a newspaper fake.
The current number of the Saturday
Hevlew lies open before me, and this Is
what my eye falls on:
"The common American delusion that
there has been a number of great
Amcrleun poets, thnt there Is, Indeed,
such a thing as American literature,
dlsportstsolt wllli unusual pomposi
ty." It Is Impossible for these literary
prigs of a special cult to understand
that there may be stimulant conditions
af national life that wake Into tumul
tuous activity all the higher and better
functions of the soul, prior to tho char
tered formulation of them Into nn art,
and thnt It Is In these periods of awak
ening and not In the after repose of an
elaborate uoslhctlelsm, the most preci
ous heartbeats of tli rnee have made
themselves heard nnd fell, sometimes
In half articulate tones, bufoftener In
organ blasts which have set the key of
liberty and tlxed the vocabulary of
hope and victory.

Wo cannot back up our claim by sta
tistics, for to tell the truth we do not
know that trustworthy statistics on the
subject have ever been collected; yet
we venture to assert that the spitting
habit is on tho Increase among Amer
icans, in generul, und among the resi
dents of Sernnton and its environs In
particular. At all events, uny tobac
conist will tell you that his sales of the
nlcollnlan Weed for chewing purposes
aio growing ut a faster rate thuu the
growth In population; nnd It seems a
fair deduction thut this means more
profuse spitting und a larger preval
ence of tilth, disease germs und fu
nerals. There Is un uestheticul side to
the subject which could be dilated upon
for three good columns. Hut the spec
tacle of rational bipeds of the human
variety making slime fountains of the
same mouths through which un Inscru

ceive food Is so Utile calculated to turn
one's thoughts upon the True, tho Heuu
1 1 fill and the (lood that we shall restrict
our present comments entirely to the
physiologicul side of the subject,
Perhaps it Is a species of threshing
over old straw, yet we shall be delib
erately guilty of that offense by saying
that the place for one's salivary secre
tions Is In the mouth, the throat and
the stomach, rather than on curbstones,
car floors or in cuspidors. The saliva !s
needed In the stomach's business. H Is
not necessary to good sidewalks or to
proper transportation. The saliva Is
meant as a kind of mixer for the food.
If it isn't there, to do Its necessary
wolf, digestion will be Interrupted
und the spltter will correspondingly
suffer. A large percentage of the dis
eases that originate in insufficient di
gestion can be traced back directly to
the anxiety of the average American to
acquire skill in killing flies at ten feet.
The man who wants to enjoy good
health, as well as to retain a reason
able hold upon the respect of his neigh
bors and friends, can do nothing better
promotive of these desires than to get
permanently rid of the Innate mascu
line proneness toward promiscuous ex
pectoration, Treating of cancer, Professor Hugh
Percy Dunn remarks In The New Ke
vlew, upon the view entertained by
some writers, that the disease can nei
ther bo caught nor given the Idea un
derlying tliis belief being that the ail
ment commences de novo In each per
son whom it attacks, and also that its
consecutive appearance In the members
of a single family is due to hereditary
transmission. Professor Hunn thinks it
doubtful, however, whether, In view of
our recent knowledge, this general
opinion can be maintained almost ev
ery year facts accumulating which In
evitably point to its being a disease of
parasitic origin, and probably at no dis
tant date a cancer microbe will be dis
covered; If this should actually prove
to be the case. It would clearly be
necessary to reconsider the question as
to the infectiveness of the ailment. In
former days no dellnlte knowledge ex
isted In regard to the lnfectlvity of
tuberculosis certainly, no evidence
such as could be practically made use
of in support of any suggestion of the
kind was available, so that, naturally,
no precautions were taken in this direc
tion to prevent the dissemination of tho
malady; since, however, the discovery
by Koch of tho tubercle bacillus, all
preconceived notions upon this point
have been revolutionized. The com
pletion, by Professor Coles, of Kings
ton, of a new Electric Eye of superior
visual power, expected soon, will un
questionably shed much valuable light
on this subject by bringing a magnify
ing power expressed by from ,'iOO.wO to
