Neverthelees, many times during the day 1:e is seen to entile when there may be slanting vieible to cause such action -his thoughts revert to the morning's scene, and. bring him pleasant vieione. He already begins to experience the joys of a new life -it seems to him that he could never have more than half lived before. Nevertheless, he puts in a good solid dazes work, and everything he does is carried out well. To follow him on his round would be the best way in whieh we might ascertain what he managed to perform. Passing along the street, he enters a bazaar, and is halted by a cry of " Fezes, in the name of the Prophet, fezes." This is the man he desires to see, and soon a bargain is struck - ..Tack buys a dozen of the Turks' head - ,gear -a. ridiculous thing it is, too, ss arm in summer and cold in winter, with nothing to shade the eyes -still. no one ever comes back from the Orient without a red fez, to be used as a smoking car), perhaps. Jack has no design upon the national Tneadgear of the Turks, nor is he en- deavouring to get up a corner in fezes, but he bears in mind that he will want 8. boat's crew from the yacht ashore that night, and if they weer this cover- ing on their heads they may be mis- taken for Turks and thus a false .clew given that will be of value later ,on. Jos& now proceeds to the water's 'edge. The handsome little Thistle- down, is riding to her anchor not a hundred yards away, and a whistle at- tracts attention on her deck.. A boat drope into the water and makes for the • shore -not pulled by brawny sailors - that day is past among yacht owners, for every well established yacht now has as a tender a tev mtv-one or twenty-five foot naphtha launeli hang- ing upon davits.

Having arranged all these particulars with the English captain, Doetor Sack gives the order,. and the little launeTt is headed for the yacht in order that he may see what had been done ill eaming out his directions. An exarainatioa eases Sack ae feel easter, If Alecit can be gotten oi. board the yacht in time, he believes their safety Is assured, for the hiding - place between the bulkheads has been se nicely ei ranged that even the most suspicious would not guess its natare.

The ingeni- ous eaatain has even placed a faucet at one point, witli a keg of water on the other side, in order to further the stecesaion.

"rd make it daybreak, judging from the experieuee we've had," re- adies Larry. Both wrong, gentlemen. Since last heard from that delayed train bas broken the record. The pasha has bought the officers in charge body and sold, and the rails have become ac- tually hot under the flight of the ex- press eastward. From this time on it will be known as the Flying Turn,. The whistle that eur friends hear in e distance as they halt under the wall actually announces the arrival et the exPrees within three miles of Stam- boul. It will draw up to the station exactly on. time. This gives a chance of complicating- matters. There is a presvEct of a, lively tune ahead. Jack and the two with him mourit the wall In the Same way as on the preceding night, the rope serving them a good turn. Instead of going direct- ly toward the palae, they turn in the quarter where Jack and Aleck wrestled with the Turlee janizariee an the oc-' Mien ot their former viett, when Aleck was captured. In a. short time they reach the hore, where the little waves are elms - !ng each other over the pebbly beath wlth a gentle lapping sound. Jack looks out over the darkened water. but can see no yacht. If she is anchored at the buoy still she has doused her riding" lights, ao that her Position May not be known. Is the boat's crew ashore? Ile walks along a short distance, until a boat turned bottom up is sighted. This is the plaee agreed on as a Mu- ezvous between them. Jack gives signal, and a dark ilgure rises up frgp behind the overturned boat like "That you, captain." asks jack. In low tones. Tes, sir," comes the guarded re- ply, A few sentences peas between them, and Jack understands thaa all is in readiness, waiting for the signal. The men are dressed like Turks, so that should they be seen It will be believed they come troll Stamboul, and are thither bound again. Satisfied with this. Jack again seeks his two companions, and they turn toward the palace. Somehow he seems to feel a heavy weiget upon his Spirits -be tell what causes It, but the uneasiness is there. "Larry, are you armed ?" he asks, cl "'Yes, but you don't think we're go- ing to have a wurnpus, do you? To my mind the coast seems clear as mid- day," returns the dude, wondering what has come over the usual, phIl- osophlcal Jack, and laying his ner- vousness at love's door. "1 don't know, I seem to feel it rarely "Yes, if You will promise not to tire me in the same dress day v." " You look charming in anything.

Rvery minute counts." goes to ids own room, and col- tLarry, who is set to work an his own small trunk. For a time great ellen:Tr is displayed. At the end of the este.= minutes the two trunks are ca.rried off to the tailwrie station by Jade,u ho has, through Achmed, en- geged a vehicle by the hour. He finds they can be sent to Rome, and that is ne load off Isis mind. As he returns in the vehicle to the house It begins to grow dusk. The nue is near when they must depart.. Zack has been wise enough to have Achmed as a driver. Another man might have learned too much and be- trayed them finally to the Pasha, for consideration. Reaching the house, Sack joins in the meal then being served. The la- dies have their hats on, and are all ready for trae ening. Avis looks an- xious but brave, and did Jack call up- on her to aid hint in his desperate plans she is in a. spirit to meet him halfway. At last they enter the old vehicle - the best Achmed could pick up in Stamboul, where porters carry loads instead of beasts of burden, and don- ktys take the place of horses very generally, although many Turldsh of- fieers own Arabian steeds. The ride is a quiet one -Indeed, con- verzation could not be carried on in the lumbering old vehicle, that pitches and tosses terribly. Avis is content to sit beside Jack. In the darkness he has an arm around her, and holds her hand in his. He does not know whether heaven will be kind enough to let him look on this Icve of his again, and the thoughts that flock in his mind are solemn. ones. At length the horrible lurching, so like a ship riding out a heavy sea at anchor, ceases, and Achmed comes to let them out. They have arrived, the lights on the water show where vari- ous ships are lying at anchor, and Jack eagerly points out one particular- ly bright gleam, saying "That is our yacht, Avis. We shall take our wedding trip in her." at which she laughs a little, though too serious just now to think of much levity. The boat is quickly found, the port- manteau and ladies put aboard, a few words exchanged, a low order of "let lads,'' given, and they separate. Jack draws a long breath of relief -at least Avis is safe from the clutches of the Pasha. He has had a strong idea all aieng that it is Abdallalde inten- tion to put another nail in Aleck's coffin by scheming to get pessession 'of his sister by fair means or foul, 'and this accoutts for Saxic's manifest de- light at having cheated the Turkish ogre of his prey --yes, thank God, Avis is safe, no matter what happens to hours, Heaveu alone knows how, but with, alternate hope and fear -a men- ta.1 fever and ague, as it were -hope sending a warm wave over him, and dread succeeding it with a raw chill, They listen to him climbirig the wall -he is in such haste that he ever - does the matter and slips back.

The bells have rung out the hour be- fore Jack and his friends leave the beach, so it is a little after ten when they come In sight of the palace walls. At this very moment a vehicle is be- ing driven from the railroad depot to the palace of the rich pasha as fast as a fee of a dozen gold medjidies can urge the driver to hasten. In this carriage three men are seated -we have seen them all before-Abdallah Pasha, Don Carlos, and the matador, Pedro Vasquez. The last has come a long way for revenge, but he has en- tered the service of the Turk, and bid- den farewell forever to Madrid, whose fickle populace would never greet him save with jeers after that last un- fortunate engagement with the black toro that Senor Sack slew. 'Unless our friends are exceedingly active in their work, they win hear something drop. The furious Turk is rushing home as if some intuition has warned him of danger.

How quickly the athletic American secures a strong clutch of the bars - he braces himself for a grand effort -no man in Abdallah Pasha's employ coted accomplish such a feat, but Jack's greatest power lies in his hips and back. As Achmed and Larry come up, the former with a small' iron bar he has brought for the purpose, they hear a crackling sound. " What's that r. demands the dude, suspiciously. "1 have torn the grating from its socket," replies Jack, breathing hard, and yet speaking as though it were nothing of much consequence. , 'Pon 'rdiah, now, that's hardly fair, old boy, wobbin' me of my laurels.

The result was iuteresting in the ex. treme. The following are among those secured: Mra Cleveland submits an epitaph which is said to be carved upon a stone in the nature of a Matrimonial. adver- tiSentent.
