LL day long In tho blazing
heat the camels have come
shuflllng nnd slouching
through tho sand past
Holouan, for tho March
full moon Is hero nnd flvo
thousand Tlcdoulus aro
making their annual pil
grimage to tho tomb in
tho Desert, whero tho Sheikh Abou
Soria ("Father of Speed") Minis tho
function of nn Arab Lourdes. From
far nnd nenr, with their families,
their wives and children, their
tents and goats, their plaintive piping reeds and
their incessant tapping of drums, tho procession
has been struggling in since sunrise. Hundreds
of donkeys trip beside tho stately camels, and
tho separato lines of dust radlato like tho spokos
of an Invislblo wheel towards tho groat encamp
ment JUBt below Helouan, to mergo later in the
single stream that Journeys forty miles southeast
to tho Tomb Itself. To the music of this soft,
gay piping the camels come swaying In beneath
their enormous loads. Tents spring up over
acres of yellow sand; camps aro pitched, all sep
arate yet all touching; tho donkoys roll in tho
hot soil; tho children laugh and play; tho men,
grave as tho camels, sit round against tho walls
of berslm nnd water-Jars and baggage that Ho
In heaps; and tho women whisper to one another
behind their veils how their Httlo ones shall all
be healed presently, and more that tho child
less wives among them shall at last become
mothers. At tho Tomb of Abou .Serla theso
things come to pass at the March full moon. It
Is a time of great rejoicing.
Shortly after dawn tho first stragglers camo In
fellaheen on, tired donkeys; many, too, on foot.
They camo from villages oh the other side of
Cairo. For tho poor travel slowly, and start
first. The wealthy Bedouin sheikhs, swathed in
white, with circlets of gold about their turbaned
heads, come later on their grand whlto camels,
wives and retain
ers close behind
them. And from
dawn, all through
the burning heat
of noonday and
af tor noon, tho
horde of fella
heen troop strag
gling in till the
crimson sunset,
dying behind the
Lybian Desert,
falls on an en
campment grown
wide and deep.
Tho palm groves
along tho delta
cast long shad
ows. Tho lizards
sing among tho
dunes. Tho wom
en start their
wild and curious
ululating, shrill
as an animal cry
nnd hardly hum
an. And sudden
ly the moon
shows her hugu
yellow disk abovo
the Mokattam
Hills and draws
a marvelous sweetness out of the desert, sheet
ing tho spread encampment with a silvery veil.
It Is a wonderful sight. The camels scorn twice
their natural sizo among the pilcd-up fodder. Lit
tle llres spring up, built over stones. Voices are
low; noises lie down one by one braying of
donkeys, gurgling grunts of camels, bleating of
goats and kids soon to bo sacrificed. Groups
gather closely round thu fires, for the night air
nips. Coffee Ib made in tiny china cups, and the
gaunt heads of the camels thrust forward over
the very shoulders of their ownors. They chew
nnd chew and chew. Those dark bundles In the
sand, lying apart by themselves, are men already
asleep, wrapped from head to feet in sheets of
black and blue and white and yellow. No one
treads on them. Tho baro feet go silently to and
fro, picking their way so carefully. And every
where dark faces gleam in tho moonlight, eyes
Hash like stars and white teeth shine.
Little visits are paid from group to group A
bearded fellow with a face of night enters a cir
cle where all are seated round tho lire and coffee
pot. "Are you happy?", "I am happy beciubu of
your existence." "Coffee?" handing him a cup.
"Coffee for ever," as he sips It slowly. Wo out
ciders watch and stare and question, yet get no
nearer to them. Centuries Ho between. Their
courtesy is perfect They acept a cigarette, light
ing it with flint and steel, offering the latter as
a present that may not bo refused. Tho young
man, playing his reeds so sofllj to a group of
listeners, hands them over to an admirer who
has praised them, with "Please accept them from
mo." Iiohind, In tho sand, men aro praying on
their knees towards Mecca. "Sing to us, kindly,"
asks an Englishman, who know3 Arabic, of an
other man. Tho singer is shy, but only requires
coaxing, and whan tho Englishman buggeiits a
certain song, tho other hesitates "It is not
pleasing that I should sing such a song beforo
gentlemen nnd ladles," "They don't understand
a word." "But I cannot do it. Whether they
understand or no, I find it not pleasing" And,
after this lesson in sweet dolienry, between tho
verses of a song ho Anally chants, always this
question: "Does my volco pleaso you, O gentle
man?" Yet theso aro merely fellaheen, tho peas
ant toilers of tho delta, who accompany tho great
Bedouin pilgrlmngo to tho Dpsert Tomb of Abou
Seria, Father of Speed, ono of Muhomet's gen
erals . . And after midnight ono or two of
them rlso quietly and resumo their Journey. "Our
camels travel better In the night-tlmo." Off they
go, with their donkoys. goats and children, carry
ing all they possess In this world with them. The
unmeasured desert swallows them. No sound
comes back. They vanish In tho moonlight aa
Eoftly as they came. Ono thinks of that Bedouin
who loved an Englishman, nnd paid him the
great honor of taking him home, "I will sboy
you my home," ho said, and they traveled three
days and nights across tho desert. Ber.saih a
Hmestono boulder ho pointed to tho gVMnd. "Now
you aro in my home," ho said, prsuilly. and with
tho stately dignity of a great p.-.aco of tho desert.
And tho Englishman saw c little pile of ashes at
his feet. It was Bur'sner, a tent unnecessary;
tho wife and nVvhs worn away. This square foot
of sand in ti.e enormous wilderness was home

Iti tho morning, with tho rising sun, tho Bedouin
arrive. Deforo Helouan is awake their whlto
head-dress was visible far down tho sandy waste
that meets the fringe of Delta towards Cairo.
But Holouan soon comes down to see. Few of
them tarry hero; they go straight through; the
Bedouin do not liko the people, houses, tourists.
They resent thd cameras, flourish their whips of
buffalo-hide and trot past almost fiercely. There
is scorn In their eyes, as they clrclo about their
wives. High on their splendid camels, they havo
a regal air, making tho great brutes turn and
doublo as easily as horses, and shouting angrily
if anyone goes near the water-sellers. This is
their last watering-place before tho tomb Is
reached, and to trifle with a Bedouin's water Is
llko trifling with his wives. And no wonder they
wear this princely ,mlen, for tho wholo Imperial
desert Is their homo. Upon the slower camels in
their lotdly train, hometlmos four abreast, their
women, all carefully veiled, sit with the llttlo
children. Somo aro hidden from sight In tent
like canvas, gorgeously striped and colored. It
sways to and fro with tho enormous knee-stroke
of tho camels llko a boat at sea. Solemnly tho
Moslem world files pa3t across tho sands. And
we outsiders get no nearer, ask, stare, and follow
as we may. The gulf It not bridged that lies bo
tween our minds and theirs. In vain wo try,
wondering what they think and feel, and whato
emotions hide behind thoso line bronzo faces
Their politeness veils it all, their own deep world;
their courtesy screens revelation. They move,
llko tho camels, at tho pace of a thousand years,
unchanging. We watch them across barriers,
that Is all Note that old man praying alom
thero, bohind tho munching camel. He has wash
ed his hands and feet, his carpet 1h spread on
tho sand, and lila Blums uru off. Mind, heart and
soul aro concentrated. Ho Is obllvlouB to tho
world about him as he bows towards tho east
nnd his forehead taps tho ground.
As tho moon rises higher and night becomes
all whlto, the fun begins In earnest Fantasia, aa
they call It, borrowing a foreign word. A couple
of mounted pollco from Helouan come down to
keep order and see that tho few inquisitive tour
ists from tho hotels aro not moloBted. But their
sorvices aro not once required Only the llttlo
children trot around with tljo!: lnccsatn domnnd
for baksheesh. Tho Arab uiko no notice or us
outsiders, beyond making way when wo approach,
offering here and tlv:ro a word of explanation
or Inviting us to dr.'ftk coffee with them when wo
draw nenr to 'Uelr fire-circles. Tho Fantasia
grows fast art', furious while tho crouching ram
ols munch and tho cries of goats and donkoys
mlngk- nith tho women's weird ululating. In ono
corner a ring ia formed and tho band begins to
Vtay two pipes and a tomtom. To tho endless
repetition of a single phrase, half melody half
chant, enters a Sheikh upon Ills Arab liorso. Tho
gold and silver trappings gle'am In tho moonlight.
His head-dress shines; tho horso's motal neck
laco chlnka and rattles Holding tho reins In ono
hand, tho other grips a staff with Its point in tho

single tone that holdp the monotony

I And tho Fantasia continues far J
Ifito tho night, whllo tho moon
climbs higher, tho old Ntlo flows
slowly by and tho desert listens sol
emnly all round. Numbers sleep
through it; here and there some
riso up and disapppar across tho
sand; everywhere aro tho outlines of tho hump
ed and pointed llttlo tents, tho grotesque heads
and necks of camels and shootcd human figures
passing softly to nnd lro through the moonlight.
All know that strangers stand and watch them,
but, whllo awaro of it, they aro utterly indiffer
ent. Tho rejoicing Is among themselves, no
question of display or showing off for othors.
They simply do what they havo done for con
turtns, and will do for centuries to como. A
cense of something eternal, and Infinite as tho
desert itself, riBOs from tho camp. It stirs tho
blood. Somewhere In it there is a touch of nwo.
At sunrise tho tents aro struck, and tho ontlro
mass moves on across tho sand In single file, p.
procession stretching for miles. At tho tomb It
soir, two days later, to the light of a thousand
camp fires, tho Fantnsla Is renewed In full earn

less praying, dancing, singing, acting and the
rest. Then all return tho way they wont. Tho
Bedouin scatter again to their various resting
places 1 ntho desort home. Tho camols como

What remains with mo, howovor, is not so
much tho memory of their FantnMn and wild re

beneath tho stars. For tho filght stirred old deep
yearnings thnt every Naturo-loVer knows too well.
So quietly they stolo away Into tho Immeasur

thoy carried easily with them, and In their hearts
this nnclent faith tho ages cannot chnngo. Tho
camols padded off, veiled women In tho swaying
tents upon their backs. Tho silhouettes wore
strange and mysterious against tho brilliant stars.
Llko dreams of a forgotten world thoy molted
Into the distance swiftly. Moonlight, sand and
