Saladin was behaving very badly, but
—at least he was superb, worth con
quering. if—
A brief thrill of apprehension seized
her as. again drawing near the point
of land, be showed no signs of yield
ing resisted all her attempts to turn,
to direct him to It. With nostrils
thrust forward and breathing strong,
be continued to choose his own
course; to whirl her on; past the
promontory; around into the great
hay beyond—now a vast expanse, or
desert of sand, broken only, about half
way across, by the small isle of
Casque. Toward this rocky forma
tion. a pygmy to the great Mount
from which it lay concealed by the
Intervening projection of land, the
boras rushed.
On, on! In vain she still endeavored
to stop him; thinking uneasily of
stories the fishermen told of this
neighboring coast; of the sands that
often shifted here, setting pitfalls for
the nnwary. She saw the sky grow
yet darker, noted the nearer flashings
of light, and beard the louder rumb
lings that followed. Then presen; ly
another danger she had long been con
scious of, on a sudden became real.
She saw. or thought she saw, a faint
•trunk, like a silver line drawn across
the sky where the yellow sands
touched the sombrous horizon. And
Saladin seemed to observe it, too; to
detect in it cause for wonder; reason
for hesitation. At any rate, that head
long speed now showed signs of di
minishing; be clipped and tossed the
sand leas vigorously, and looked
around at hia mistress with wild, un
easy eyes. Again she spoke to him;
pulled with all her strength at the
•wins, and. at once, he stopped.
Nona too toon! Great drops of rain
had begun to fall, but the girl did not
notice them. The white line alone
riveted her attention! It seemed to
grow broader; to acquire an intangible
movement of its own; at the same
tint* to give out a sound—a strange,
low droning that filled the air. Heard
for the first time, a stranger at the
Mount would have found It inexplic
able; to the Governor's daughter, the
menacing cadence left no room for
doubt as to its origin.
The girl's cheek paled; her gaze
swung in the opposite direction, to
ward the point of land, now so di»
tant. Could they reach it? She did
not believe they could; indeed, the
“grand” tide coming np behind on the
verge of the storm, faster than any
!lf*V gallop, would overtop
them midway. 'And Saladin seemed
to know it also; beneath her, he
trembled. Yet must they try, she
thought, and had tightened the reins
to turn, when looking ahead once
more, she discerned a break in the
forbidding cliffs of the little island of
Casque, and, back of the fissure, a
shining spot which marked a tiny
cove.
A moment she hesitated; what
should she do? Ride toward the isle
and the white danger, or toward the
point of mainland and from it?
Either alternative was a desperate
one, but the isle lay much nearer; and
quickly, the brown eyes gleaming with
sudden courage, she decided; touched
her horse and pressed him forward.
But fast as she went the "grand"
tide came faster; struck with a loud,
menacing sound the seaward side of
the isle and swung hungrily around.
My lady cast over her shoulder a
quick glance; the cove, however, was
near; only a line of small rocks, jut
ting from the sand, separated her
from it. If they could but pass, she
thought; they had passed, she told
herself joyfully, when of a sudden the
horse stumbled; fell. Thrown violent
ly from his back, a moment was she
cognizant of a deafening roar; a riot
ous advance of foam; above, a hun
dred birds that screamed distractedly;
then all these sounds mingled; dark
ness succeeded, and she remembered
no more.
CHAPTER VIII.
The Old Watch-Tower.
__A wall! A window—a prison-like
interior! As her eyes opened, the
Governor’s daughter strove confusedly
to decipher her surroundings. The
wall seemed real; the narrow window,
too, high above, framing, against a
darkening background, a slant of fine
rain! Again she closed her eyes, only
to be conscious of a gentle languor;
a heaviness like that of half-sleep; cf i
bodily heat, and also a little bodily
pain. For an indefinite period, really
a moment or two, she resigned herself
to that jLrepmy torpor; then, with an
effort,'iif ted Tier lashes once more.
As she gazed before her. something
bright seemed leaping back and forth;
a flame—that played on the wall; re
vealing the joints between the stones
of massive masonry; casting shadows,
but to wipe them out; paling near a
small window, the only aperture ap
parent in the cell-like place. Turning
[ from the flickering®, her glance quick
iy sought their —a fire in s
hearth, before which she lay—or half
sat, propped against a stone
But why? The spot was strange; ir
her ears sounded a buzzing, like the
murmur of a waterfall. She remem
bered now; she had lingered befor*

A Butterfly, Poised and Waving Its
Wings, Held Her for a Long Time,
antil—my lady raised her hand to
her brow; abruptly let it fall. In the
shadow on the other side of the hearth
some one moved; some one who had
been watching her and who now
stepped out into the light.
“Are you better?” said a voice.
She stared. On the bold, swarthy
features of a young man now standing
and looking down at her, the light
flared and gleamed; the open shirt re
vealed a muscular throat; the down
turned black eyes were steady, solicit
ous. His appearance was unexpected,
yet not quite strange; she had seen
him before, but, in tbe general sur
prise and perplexity of tbe moment,
did not ask herself where. The inter
val between what she last remem
bered on tbe beach—tbe rush and
swirl of water—and what she woke to.
absorbed tbe haxy workings of her
mind.
Tbe young man stopped; stirred tbe
die, and after a pause, apparently to
give her time to collect ber thoughts.
