BeratiPe nf my foiirtoen years in
Egypt. 1 wnsted no brenth In HWenrliiR
viciously nt the llles as 1 brushed tlii-m
from my fare; nor did I look with such
horror as I would once have felt, but
lerhais with a little envy, at a native
boy of live or six, lying- perfectly uoUed
In the sun and making no movement of
discomfort as the swarming pests
buzzed about his bare skin or even
dragged their dampened feet over his
staring eyeballs, lint for my more
sensitive nerves, T was as happy as he,
for the Inundation was over for the
year.there had been no breaks or bung
ling In my district upon the canals of
His Highness, the Khedive, my report
was ready to file with the chief engi
neer, and r was thinking of a Christ
mas at home, the first In four years,
not as one thinks In Europe, the blond
cnurslng quicker as fancy's call, but
idly and dreamily.
A queer bit of stone vjth heathen
carvings traced upon It I held In my
hand, as I sat In the shade of my tent
Hap, had led my Idle thoughts across
nil those miles of sea and land to green
Kngland.
"1 wonder If Arthur will care for this
scarab," 1 was thinking; "he must be
as big as I am by this time. Four years
ago he was mightily Interested In all
that 1 could tell him of ancient Egypt.
And that was little enough, poor fel
low! How disgusted lie was when I
confessed that, after ten years In Egypt
and many months In Cairo, 1 had
never gone a mile out of my way to
see the Pyramids!"
For my concern has always been
with the land of today' and not of yes
terday. Of Arabic I know enough to
direct my men and even to write a
tolerable letter. Hut of the tombs and
temples and the strange characters
chiseled on them to record the lying
boasts of crowned slave-drivers of the
past, I knew and yet know nothing.
Still, even my eyes were shrewd
enough to see that It was no ordinary
pebble my donkey's hoof had unearthed
from a cluybank that morning. It was
an oval bit of black Tanls granite,
lounded to an exquisite smoothness. It
was, as nearly as I can remember,
about two inches in length, an Inch and
a half wide, and an Inch or less In
thickness. Across each of the Ilat
tened sides were draw n Hues, and be
tween the lines were cut rows of hiero
glyphic characters. Their meaning I
could not guess, but 1 saw that there
were represented a dog, or some other
beast, a metal mirror, such us my men
often dug up in the ruins of great cit
ies now clothed with wheat stalks; a
lilt of board with seven pegs In It, an
eye with its eyeball rudely tiaced, and
other designs less suggestive of any
forms in nature
It was while I sat examining the
stone, which I purposed adding to the
little store of such trllles I hud saved
for my son, that I saw All, son of Ha
waii, my dragoman, eyeing me with a
strange gaze I had never seen in his
eyes before, and which made me un
easy in a way that I could not ulte ex
plain. Twelve years All Hasan hud
been with me, and that he loved me
like a brother I knew then as well as
I know now. For It is a strange thing,
this life In the east, where men live side

by side for years and never speak of
that which both know. I would have
trusted All Hasan with my life had
done so, Indeed, many a time. I would
have trusted him with the little money
I was saving year by year that I might
one day live again in the old home.
I would have trusted him with my
son.
And yet my trust was to be sorely
tried, for even as I noted that look in
All's eyes, I saw him spring sud
denly toward me and poise a huge
ebony club above my head, saw It de
scending swiftly, yet seemingly an eter
nity of time in its fall; and then I saw
no more; but even as I fell, I was con
scious of gripping the strange stone
firmly In my right hand, which seemed
all at once throbbing with such pain
that I was glad enough to glide into
insensibility.
I have always rather prided myself

on my lack of Imagination; but All
Hasan's club seemed to have let ns
much nonsense Into my head as the
.Sense It knocked out: for here wns 1 In
my sleep, which lasted for 1 know not
how long, thinking and babbling about
Hameses, and Halhor, and Amibls and
other old Egyptian kings and gods,
about whom, In my right mind, I had
never cared tuppence For when the
scientific men had said to me that the
old kings were nt least good engineers
and skilled In stone working, 1 had al
ways replied that It was not good en
gineering to waste material and labor,
and that I cared naught for them, be
ing but a plain eifglneer.
I must ask pardon for talking shop
ngnln and get back to my tale, and at
that part of It where, after many prof
itless Imaginings, I one day awoke, as
if from a sleep, and saw bending over
THE NEW DRAGOMAN UNE
me. a face which I knew and yet did not
know.
is this Mr. MacDougallV" I asked,
making use of the name of a young
Scotch engineer who had been expected
In camp about the time I found the
dark scarab. But my voice sounded
strangely weak, and my tongue had a
way of falling about In my mouth that
was new to me.
"It's a shocking old dad not to know
his own son," said a fresh, young
voice; "but never you mind. You've
been jolly well knocked out, you know,
but you're ns right as need be now. So
be off with you to sleep again."
And I obeyed and dreamed that Ar
thur wore upon Ills brow the globe and
serpent und held In his hand the whip
and scepter of Amnion Ra, who must
be obeyed.
My big hands have a firm grip, and,
once they had taken hold on life again,
my recovery was rapid. A pleasant duy
It was for me when I was judged
strong enough to talk It all over with
my son. A fine, well-grown lad he wus,
and quick and merry.
"Awfully obliging of you, dad," said
he, as he sat by the bedside, holding my
gaunt hand In his. "I've wished to
come to Egypt for a long time, and your
sore head gave me such a Jolly excuse.
Sorry you can't smoke, too, but you'll
be up to It In no time. And you haven't
read the papers much while the croco
diles were chasing you, so I'll construe
a few lines out of the Egyptian Times,
of date a month or so ago. "The pai tlc
ulars of a sad affair have just reached
us from the province of Reni-Suef. The
eminent englneer.lieswick Hey,"- that's
you, guv'noi 'eminent engineer' isn't
so bad, eh? 'was on Thursday last
struck down In his tent by u native
servanC named All asan, whose motive
is supposed to have been rubbery, and
vt ho succeeded in making his escape.
Some native employes of the engi
neering department found Heswlck Hey
suffering from two bad sculp wounds.
Ills right hand was also bruised
and lacerated, probably In an effort to
wrench away his keys, though no con
nected account of the affair Is possible,
as the Hey, owing to the heat and the
impossibility of securing proper care s
tar from any town, lies in a fever from
which he is -not expected to recover.
Casuldl Hey is In attendance as physi
cian, by His Highness the Khedive's
special Instruction. Heswlck Hey only
hoii, a recent Oxonian graduate, has
been notified.' There, pater! That's
the whole affair in a nutshell, so far as t
know anything about It. If that rascal
of an All were here, he might tell you
more." ,
"All Hansan Is no rascal, but as true
a man as ever diew breath," said 1 as
stoutly us I might.
"Muttold, perhaps," said Arthur, In
his jesting way; "epileplold; an ego
inuulac clubomuntas. No matter what
you do, If yer 'ait be true, and All's 'art
was true to dad. Right you are, guv'nor,
no doubt."
"Crazy he may have been, but a ras
cal, never," said 1, when at length I
gathered Arthur's meaning. For the
fashions of speech change ns do tip
fashions of dress, and I. having for so
many years spoken little save Arable,
and leurned my English only from
printed pages, found myself almost un
able to understand the words of an edu
cated gentleman of today. Also, It net
tled me not a little to see that Arthur
wus by way of thinking me more daft
than All.
"Hut what was that about the keys?"
said I, to change the subject. And
when he had again lead the passage
from the newspaper "Hut I held no
keys," I cried, "and I had little money
with me, and to that lttlo All knew he
wus as welcome us you are, 1 had
' ,
t
i
naught In my hand but a line black
stone scarab 1 had picked up for you."
"Here's a rum go," muttered Arthur,
whence I peicelved that he wus puz
zled. Then he raised his voice, unit I
was pleased to see that he could al
ready give the words of command In
the Arabian tongue: "To. turgeman,
la 'alu bench!"
"Ana gal, Ta Still," said the new
dragoman who had taken All's place,
as he entered the room. And present
ly, when he know what was required,
he unearthed from beneath some litter
of the c'unip the mystic stone which
had lain forgotten since the day 1 was
struck down.
"Aye, lad," said I, ns I saw It, "It
was that 1 held when All Hasan felled
me, and It was to that I clung while
ho beat and battered my right hand
until he was driven away. And It la
that which. If f know him, lie Is still
In wait near here to secure. If you
value It as little as I, best set It Up on
a mud wall where he can come and
get It, and beat peace with his folly."
"Not 1," cried Arthur, with a proud
movement of the head that all at
once minded me of his mother "Is It
for Englishmen to give up beaten so
easily."
"You are right, my boy," I said, not
111 pleased. "I spoke too hastily and am
easier corrected by you than by any
other man living. Keep It, and guard
well your own skull. And tell me Its
meaning If you can.' '
"Why, that should be easy," said
Arthur, In his old careless way. "It's
a heatt scarab, dud. You kn6w when
those old duffers of Egyptians pre
pared a body for mummifying, they

used sometimes to take out the heart
and put In Its place a smooth stone
like this, about the same size. These
hieroglyphics, now. must be the name
and qualities of the gay and festive
old bounder who wore It. Hm! My
Egyptian Is a little rusty, but that
feather sign Is 'a' and the chessboard
with the diuuken sailor's line of march
under It Is 'men' some name beginning
with 'Amen;' and the queer unlmal Is
the sign of the god Set. Oh, I can dig
it all out with the help of a pony."
And there, my word for it, was that
slip of a boy I hud dundled on my
knees rending off the syllables from a
stone thousands of years old, as If It
were yesterday's paper. 1 almost re
gretted that 1 was not myself more of
a scholar as 1 lay propped up on my
pillows watching him.
Then all nt once I saw his face take
on a queer look that I did not like, hav
ing seen It worn by many a bright
young fellow offered up like a sacrifice
to the east. And with a muttered ex
cuse which I (did not catch, he left the
tent.
Nor could I anywhere see the heart
scarab after he had gone.
