With sword or nohttr rent
Nay, not with eloquent wonl or thought
l'rom Moutlm of womlvdl men.
But deep In a walled up woman's heart
Of woman that would not yield.
But bravely, Mlcntly bnro her part
Lot there I that battlcSleld.
No marshaling troop, no blvoiiso ixmr,
No banner to ilem end wAvet
Hut, oh! these- battle they liut to long
From babyhood to tho grave.
Yet faithful still aa a bridge of stars,
Mho fithta In her walled tip town

Then silent, tiiueen, goet ilownl

And sohtlsr to shout ml pmlfol

THE SENTENCE.
Ahmanxado Mehemed, tho alnlar of tlit
auxiliary troops of TunUI, was known on
account of the rigorous dlsclpllno that ho
exercised over Ills soldiers. "It is not the
enemy you mttst fenr, but mo," ho would
often remark to the young soldiers who
came to Increase tho rank. Thus hU army
win an army of heroes, who had no fenr on
tho battlefield, but who trembled In tho
presence of their lender.
Tho ilrst campaign In which they fought
waa at Albania, In tho bnttlo against tho
rebel Greeks, mid on that occasion Mo
hemed'a men proved themselves efllclcnt.
It happened that Mehemed onodnyordcrod
eight soldier to remain In ambush at the
"five fountains" of Artn, nt which point
the O recks were likely to open their attack.
They were to atop any ono who ahould try
to pass by, and they were strictly cautioned
not to dismount or fall asleep. The sol
diers executed with exuetneaa all their In
structlons.
A vehicle which attempted toward mid
night to cross the line unobserved was dis
covered and atopped. The man who had
charge of the oxen which drew It ran away,
abandoning his wagon. On this wagon waa
a barrel. It waa easy to ascertain what the
barrel contained, even without dismount
ing and without falling asleep, Von only
bad to open the bungholo to smell the pleas
ant odor of liquor escaping from it. And It
must have been an excellent liquor, com
pounded largely of figs and raisins. The 01
aurrl (Christians) undoubtedly know what
waa good.
Tha soldier had not been forbidden If
they aelaed liquor to drink It. And really
they did not drink directly from tho barrel.
Tbey merely sunk bulrushes In It, through
which they sipped the aweet and Intoxicat
ing liauki. Waa It not harmless to sip with
stub thin ruabeaf One oould scarcely call
that drinking. Bat Justly doea the prophet
rceahrk that Wine is a deceitful beverage in
walca the devil baa had hia hand, since
this drink bring men to every evil.
Fira the aoldltra aaked each other why
tbey ahould ait la their hard saddles when
ha grata made aueh a soft bed oa the
gjraaad.. Aad it they lay tkere for only a
short while nobody would know It. They
oould tie tM banes to the wagon, aad theee
certainly. could tell no tale. After tbey
bad dtaaaounted the Infernal drink persuad
ed them that it waa a useless task for eight
men to remain on guard. Four would suf
fice, and tha rest could Bleep.. To Jhe four
men whd were to keep awake the waiting
for their turn seemed too long, and tbey
agreed that two might sleep while the oth
er two remained true to the order.
Marat aad Sefer were the two designated
W watch for the rest.
"Do you know," said Sefer to his friend
"do you know that one man is of the aamn
vain in tbla case an two? It will do just
as wall It only one of us watches. Do you
aotagmr"
UgWuf tftMsHitod
"I,, aropese," continued Sefer, "that we
play a game of chess. Tha loser will have
to wateh, and the winner may sleep."
Marat aeeepted the conditions.
Tha twa Bedottlas prepared the ground in
front of when tbey stood, and with their
tpears they traced a square, dividing it into
84 smaller square, Thea tbey substituted
for the regular pawns tha fruits of the
woods. The wild pears became kings, tho
apples queens; the castles were represented
by acorns, the bishops by rose nips, the
knights by nut and the pawna by berries.
The men tbua provided, the game began by
the light of tha campflre.
At Iras Sefer held the advantage, but
that inebriating drink overcame him little
by little, so that he was not In condition to
distinguish hia pawns. lie lost hia queen
and was very uear being checkmated.
"Sefer, you are in a bad mess," remarked
Marat when bo saw that the game was la
his hands.
"You are right.'! am as sleepy as tho sea
wbealtiseaim."
"You are losing tho game."
"I can see that too."
"Well, lie down in the same of Allah. 1
will watch for you."
Sefer shook hia friend's hand la grateful
acknowledgment of the sacrifice, and be
thought he spoke to him, but hs only
dreamed it, for he fell asleep Immediately.
Maruf, on the contrary, kept his eyes
open, and leaning on hia gun he looked at
his sleeping companion. Hut that devilish
drink began to murmur softly:
"Why do you not sit downf You could
see Just as well."
As toon as he was seated Satan agatn be
gan to tempt him.
"Why do you tire your eyesf If you shut
one of them, you will see with the other just
as well as with both."
Maruf reflected that it his eyes were
closed bis ears were open, and that be would
be ready to start at the smallest danger that
might threaten his companions and htm
self. And with the firm purpose of sot fall
lag, asleep be slumbered as heavily as tha
rest
la the meantime the bidden Greeks cams
allot a suddeuupon the sleeping men, na
iled the horses of the Turks, aad would
sertainly have killed them had sot Marat's
horse, aa though be foresaw the danger, be
gun to neigh. The first to awaken was
Maruf, and in a few moments tho rest were
ready. Tbey ran to get their arms and stood
oa the defense, now fully awake and sober.
Tbey threw themselves ou the enemy,
but it waa ot no avail. The Greeka had
mounted the horses and laughed at tho
Turks, who endeavored to overcome them
oh foot.
Maraf horse alone would uot submit to
' the Greek who had mounted him and be
gan to rear and plunge until he had suc
ceeded la. throwing the rider. He then
kicked him and returned to bis owner.
Klgbt men bad one horse left among
ktm. What was Mehemed going to sayf
The lliilnulns, yet young, were cant down
at. thn thntiuht of death. The knew their
lender would have no pity for them, and 1
still sadder went they at tho Ions of their
bclovrd horses. Of what use Isn man with
outahoiticr
Mortally worried nt the punishment they
expected, they returned to hend(imrterr
and, brought face to facr'th Alminiiwult,
they narrated what hnd happened, how
tliey had disobeyed Ids orders, how they
hnd fallen asleep nfter drinking the liquor,
how the Inst two watchmen hnd played
chess, and finally how they hnd lit their
horses. AhmaurndowaHiiot lit the lialilt
of making u display ot passion t-hen ho
hnd to post sentence. In his Immovnlilo
fiicn no ono could read whether ho decreed
life or death.
"An for eight men there remnlns only ono
horse," ho remarked, "you will agree
with mo that there nro sewn of you too
nianv. I have never rvad In tho Koran nor
In the Ar.ornt that right men should rids
ono hone, mid a you arc such good players
sit down and let skill decide which ot you
is to bo the man who Is to hnvo tho one
horse. All the others nro sentenced to die."
Having said this, Ahnmnr.ade had four
chessboards brought in, for the Turks are
In tho habit of carrying chessboards with
them, even In wnr. A soon as tho men
were- nrmtiKed ho ordered the lledoulns to
begin their play.
Twelve of tho best mnrksmen were ready
with their rifles to shoot tho losers. Two
or three nave In nt once to their stronger
adversaries. In other despair battled
with craftiness against the advantage of
their moro skillful opponent, and the for
mer would win when the latter hnd vie
tory In their hands.
Tho loners were Immediately removed,
and the nolso of several shot Indicated that
they hnd censed to exist.
Tho first tilt was over. Four had lost,
four wero wluucrM, These Inst were paired.
New hum? and nuw fears. A danger would
pass unobserved, and o who hml mndo tha
error would raise it cry which was his death
sentence.
Aualn two loit, nnd again two were shot.
And now only two remained Maruf uud
Sefer. They found themselves, as they hnd
been before, In front of tho cnmpflre. They
were the best players. They began the
name with i. good deal of caution, resting
their foreheads on thopalmsof their hands,
thoughtfully calculating every move, with
out hesitating, but without hurrying.
For n long while neither ot the two suc
ceeded Inobtnlnlngnnadvantago. Forench
gain there was un equal sacrifice.
Tho spectators nod to each other when
either one makes a brilliant move. Little
by little the numlier ot pawns on the chess
board diminishes; tho main figures He scat
tered to tho right and to tho left; the situa
tion becomes plainer; n few more moves,
unil (fcifor will Insn Ills luistlol
Mnruf ban one moro cnstle than his ad
versary, and this mean n good deal at the
present stago ot tho game. The crowd be
lieves that tho game I In his hands.
All of a sudden great drop ot sweat cover
tho forehead of Maruf a fear' overtakes
him; he trembles through all his body. Ho
has noticed that If hi adversary sacrifices
his queen instead ot his castle he can check
mate him with tho bishop. Would Sefer
see that movcf On that depend llfo and
deathl
Sefer looks nt tho chessboard for a long
while. HU looks betray that ho has seen
the move that will save him. Hut he 'docs
not touch the men, and ho seems to hesitate,
"Maruf," he asks all of a sudden, "how
many children have you nt hornet"
"Four," Is the answer that comes from
trembling lips.
"Yon faava a good wife?"
"An excellent wife," answered Maruf,
with a sigh.
Sefer passes a hand over his face Hnd be
gins to murmuras though ho wero praying.
Then be aA' for water. He washes his
eyes, his hindsMlrst the left hand, then
the right hand. Unseen two guardian an
gels watch ever by those who pray.
"Yesterday night you gave mo the game
so that I might sleep," ho hays.
Maruf does not answer, but bows his head
In assent.
"You have always been a good friend of
mine, Maruf."
Maruf lets his head drop on his breast en
tirely overcome. Sefer then slowly lifts his
hand to tbo chessboard and makes amove,
not with the queen, but with the castle.
"Checkmated!" you hear murmured on
all sides. Maruf has won and Sefer lost..
Sefer rises quietly, offer hi hand for the
last time to hi friend, Maruf, who seem
nailed to bis place, and signals to the sol
diers to be ready. Two seconds later a shot
announces that tho tournament ia over.
But Maruf doea not stir. With intent
eye he look at the board, aud with trem
bling hand he puts the pawn in their
places, but like one who doea not kuow
which are the places assigned tothem. Tftie
other meu are confused with the pawns,
the white with the black.
"Get up," exclaimed Ahmanxade. "Rldo

The man, however, does not move and
continue with' hia vacant staro to arrango
the chessboard, making strange moves with
tho figures.
"What an absurdity!" he exclaims,
laughing recklessly. "One has a turban
and the other a horse' head!"
"Pick him up," orders Mcbemcd. And
two soldiers lift him. Maruf, however,
continued to laugh with n lunatic's laugh.
Heaven, earth and men were now alike uu-
known to him.

The old fellow had come to Chicago to
see the World's fair, but be was inclined to
be suspicious and cautious. He had gone
to the little hotel that be bad been told to
go to, but he eyed every one about it with
more or less suspicion. He had settled
down In the office to read a paper, when a
clerk approached him and asked. "Are you
Jacob Wilder?"
"Heyl" he said. Instantly on tha alert.
"Aro you Jacob wilder?"
"Want me to play kyards or somethlnr"
be asked. '
"No, I simply want to know"
"I writ my name tn that there book

nothtn else."
"I dou't want you to sign anything."
"I reckon you're goln to1 tell me me'n
your father waa old friends."
"No, I'm not," replied the exasperated
clerk, "but you're Jacob Wilder. ' I have a
Utter for you."
The old man shook his head doubtfully.
"John that's my son, you know," be said
slowly, "didn't tell me notbln about any
scheme o that sort. I reckon you'd better
bang onto the letter, mister. I ain't takin

"Maybe it's from your son," persisted the
clerk.
"Thet's so. Mebbe.lt is," be ssld, scratch
ing his head. "Well, jest you lay it down
on the table, an I'll take a look at it, but I
ain't a-toucbin ot It till I ace what it is."
He took a look at tho address and then
Elcked up tho letter. "It's John's writln,"
e said, "an I reckon it's all right, but don't

A famous English actor once undertook
to take part in a certain amateur perform
ance at Richmond, but as be had to act the
same evening in the first niece at the liny
market, as Lord Fopllng, he had not much
time to lose. He accordingly stepped from
the theater Into a cab in his stage attire
and used the vehicle, on his way to Water
loo station, ns a dressing rooni, taking out
of bis carpet bag the smock frock and gait
ers in which he was to play his role later
on. He bail not a minute to spare, ami,
throwing his fare to the cabman, was about
to rush into tbo booking otflce, when ho
found himself pinioned from behind the
driver bad got him fast,
"Let me go, you fool. I bava paid you
sixpence more than your fare ulreody."
"Hang your sixpence! You are a murder
