It was hard to believe that the ghastly sentence would be carrled out; yet Bho Sallan’s words and manner gave the prisoners no hope of an alternative. And escape was impossible! Sooloo yielded to apathy and despair. He crouched in a corner, refusing to speak. Quin paced the floor restlessly for a long time, chafing like a caged beast, and trying to realize that his life was with- in a few hours of its close. Time passed on. Gradually the distant clamor of voices faded and a deep silence settled on the fort. Absorbed in bitter thought, Quin failed to hear the approach of stealthy footsteps and the slight creaking of the door. A low ery from Sooloo roused him, and at the same instant, by the faint glow from a narraw window slit in the wall, he per- ceived a tall, dark figure in front of him. ‘Who's there?” he demanded. “Be quiet, sahib, for your life and mine, was the reply, spoken in good English. “ have come to help you.

By a big gate they entered the in- clesure, in the center of which was a high watch tower, surrounded by numerous small houses that bristled with loop holes. Scores of fierce-looking Dyaks quickly assembled, and greeted the captives with iteots and yells. With some difficulty a pessage was forced through them, and Quin and Sooloo breathed more freely when they were thrust into a small room on the lower floor of the watch tower. Here they were left alone and in dark- ness for a few minutes. The orang-outang had been placed in a room not far off, and from the peals of rude laughter, mingled with unearthly screeches, it was evident that some of the Dyaks were tormenting the creature by prodding it. “I hope it will get loose among them,” muttered Quin, when he had listened for a time. “Hark! I hear footsteps,” said Sooloo. “And there is a light.” An instant later the door opened to ad- mit a man who carried a small lamp in one hand. He was clearly the notorious Bho Sallah himself—a most evil-looking ruffian, the town and looted the treasury. And now the soldiers are coming to take revenge.” “How near are they?” “Last night, sahib, they than two days’ march. “They will arrive too late! “We are lost! “No; you have a chance of ese were within Je 3 groaned Quin, pe,” said the Sikh. “Listen well; every moment adds to our peril, I was a fool to des nd I am sick of this wretched existe If 1 show yov how to save your » will you do all in your power to persuate the Eng- lish to grant me a full pardou ‘Gladly,” Quin answered. “I agree to ve conditions—I will carry them cut.

May you be fortunate, sahib!”’ Brief farewells were exchanged, and then the sikh crept from the room, closing the door softly behind him. To the so recently in the shad- n death, the interview that nad just terminated seemed almost like a dream, But when they proceeded without delay to examine the flooring and found a wide plank that lfted up, the hope of escape stew substantial; for underneath was an excavation about three feet deep. They lstened for a moment to make sure that all was quiet in the fort, and then they let themselves into the hole, replacing the plank above them as well as they could. With Sooloo leading, they crapt on hands and knees through the stifling, pitch- black subterranean passage, which had evi- dently been dug a long time beore. At last a gray glimmer of light was seen ahead and a moment later they reached the open air, emerging in a copse of thick grass. The night was dark, bu: after the deeper gicom of the tunnel they could see their surroundings clearly. A considerable dis- tance behind them lay the fort buildings, and about thirty feet straight ahead, over broken ground, was the main gate in the stockaded wall, facing toward the north. Ard leaning against it was the dark form of the Dyak sentry; as he stirred occasion- aliy, the barrel of his rifle gleamad. “Now comes the worst part,” said Quin. “That fellow must be settled without noise. But how are we going to do it?” “Leave it to me,” replied Sosloo. "Give me your knife, and I will creep upon him like a serpent. He shall know nothing till he feels the steel. When you hear a low whistle, then come quickly.” it was a doubtful plan, but the only one feasible. Putting the knife between his teeth in such a position that the blade would not sparkle, Sooloo started off, crawl- ing flat on the ground. Quin watched him until he bad vanished from sight in the gloom, and then he spent several minutes of harrowing anxiety. He knew What Soo- loo was capable of, but, nevertheless, he was aware that the odds were strong against success—that in all probability the sentry would detect the approach of the creeping figure. Great was his relief, therefore, when he suddenly saw oo an,at the gate go down like a log, and dftoth& figure rise imme- diately at the same Spot. The welcome signal—a faint wMistiticame as quickly. Bending low, Qui dahed across the in- tervening space. He faurfd the sentry ly- ing dead in a pool, of blood. “His back was turned,’ Sooloo whispered eagerly, “and I struck him through the heart. He had nd time to ery out.” “By Jove, it was neatly done!’ replied Quin. “Come, wesmust.be off. All is quiet now, but our escape is bound to be discoy- ered before long.” - “Yes, for other sentffes are about,” said Sooloo. tt Quin took the dead man’s rifle and led the way to a small gate.on one side of the large one. The heavy hars that secured it were easily removed, and the fugitives passed out, closing the gate behind them. Hastily, but carefully, they picked their course over the crop of sharp bamboos and reached the jungle beyond the clearing. ‘They pushed on to the north in high spirits, guided by the twinkling stars. Half an hour passed, increasing their confidence and hope. They had covered more than a mile, and the silence of the forest was unbroken. But a little later, to their dismay, they heard shouts far in the rear. he sentry*has been found.” exclaimed Soolvo, “and our eseapé is discovered!” “Yes, and the rascals have been in pur- suit for some time," replied Quin. “‘They will follow the trail like blo¢dkounds, We ust keep our present advantage—that is 2 only chance. It proved a futile hope. Bho Shallah’s rebels were not to be matehed at running. For an heur the fugitives pushed through the dense jungle as rapidly as_ possible, yhile the sounds of pursuit swelled louder and nearer behind them, and then breath and strength began to fail them. They kept on doggedly, until the glimmer of torches was actually visible in the rear. “IUs no use!” panted Quin. ‘We must pull up presently and fight—’ A “Look! Jook!” Sooloo interrupted just then, He was pointing ahead through the bush, at a red glow of light in the distance. “By Jove, it must be ihe English camp!” cried Quin. Cheered and strengthened, they dashed on, and five minutes later ihey broke into a cieared space where a seniry was pacing to and fro, and scores of men in British univerms, roused from sleep by the nois resist an at- greeted the tugilive! ‘owly missed being fired at. He listened to their brief story, and then sent a detachment of soldiers to meet the rebels. But che latter getting wind of the situation, they beat a hasty re- treat, and the party soon returned to camp. As dawn was now breaking the com- manding officer, Captain Jarvis, decided to push on at once. Quin gave him a fuller report of his adventures, and received an assurance that the case of Gunpat Singh should have every consideration. The avenging force consisted of 20) Dyak troops and about forty Sikhs and Pathans. They had one smail gun, a 7-pounder. Owing to the rugged nature of the country it had been imp port machine guns. After a hasty bre t the column started and three hours’ march brought it within sight of Bho Sallah’s stronghold. ‘The proceedings that followed, which demonstrated the truth of Gunpat Singh's report, Were tedious and aggravating. The zov Dyaks were posted in a cordon around the fort, at a cofsiderable distance from it. Then the Sikhs and Pathons, with the gun, took up a position 100 yards from the main gate, but under cover of the jungle. ‘The attack began at 10 o'clock, and until an hour past nocn sbells were thrown into tac the inclosure. They killed some of the rebels, to judge from the outcry, but they made no impression on the fort, and not a single ch in the massive wall. ‘The e exception of a few strag- ot return the fire. do,” Captain Jarvis said, three shells left, and the y intact.

What could it’ mean? “Halt! Forward again!" cried the cap- tain. “There's a row of some sort goin on inside. It gives us the advantage: Carry the place with a rush, men!” > Nobly the little force responded, forget- ting the horrors of their recent’ repulse. They dashed on, trampling the dead and dying, and losing two men by a weak 1u- silade from the loopholes. The tumult within still continued, but it was drowned by hearty cheers. Now they had reached the very walls, and now the door yielded to a furious assault. It came down with 2 We must crash, and into the tower, through a a h curling smoke and flying bullets, poured Sikns, Pathans and Englishmen.

Jarvis had pursued the rebels with a part of his force, and without delay Quin and the Sikh joined the chase. In a few moments all was finished. The greater part of the enemy broke through the cordon of Dyaks; many were sen in the attempt, and a number were captured. But Bho Sallah was amon neither the prisoners nor the slain; he f escaped to impenetrable fastnesses of the jungle, and was likely to give plenty of trouble in the future. It was a dearly bought victory, for no legs than thirteen of the storming party had lost their lives. Among those slightly wounded was Soolco, By the use of red-hot swords the orang- outang was driven into its cage, greatly to Quin’s satisfaction.

The Endeavor Society of Plymouth Con- gregational Church, corner of 17th and P streets northwest, sent a delegate to the recent convention at Nashville, and has arranged fer an echo meeting at the church morrow evening at 8 o'clock, at_ which the delegate will make his report. The Y. P. 8. C. E. of First Presbyterian Church, gave a lawn party at the home of the Misses Hine in Eckington, recently. The Endeavorers of the Vermont Avenue jan Church will hold services in the rch auditorium during the summer at o'clock Sunday evening, followed at ‘30 with a brief sermon by the pastor, Rev. F. D. Power. Last Sunday evening Dr. Power gave to the Endeavorers and con- gregation a report of the Nashville con- vention, at which gathering he was one of the speakers. During July and August the Christian En- deavor Society of Union M. E. urch will have charge of the evening service at that church for a portion of each Sunday, the pastor concluding with a brief summary of the topic. Mr. Millard Rugg, an active member of this society, is in the United States signal corps, and Mr. John allice, an associate member, is on the receiving ship Richmond, at Philadelphia. Mr. Ed- ward Ross, killed in the second engagement at Santiago, was a member of Union's Sun- day school. At the Nashville echo meeting at Mount Vernon Place M. E. Church South, tomor- row evening, at 7:30 o'clock, !n charge of the pastor, short addresses will be made by Mr. Miles M. Shand, Rev. J. W. Duf- by, Mr. R. L. Smith, and Mr. A.

What Causes It and How It May Be Avoided. From the Youth's Companion. America has the reputation, less deserv- penitentiar ed now, perhaps, than it was half a cen- tury ago, of being the land of the dys- peptic. When we consider the causes that were formerly at work to prevent healthy digestion, we cannot wonder that so many suffered from this malady. The men were too busy to devote the necessary time to their meals, and bolted their food without the thorough masti- cation that ensures the proper beginning of the digestive process. The women had more time to eat, if they would have tak- en it, but they went out little, taking al- most no exercise, and the quantity of food 2ten Was almost always in excess of the needs of the body—a most favorable con- junction for the production of dyspepsia. Finally, the food itself was of such a kind and prepared in such a way as to tax the digestive organs to the utmost. The frying pan reigned supreme, and greasy, smoked and corned meats, with hot salaratus biscuits or heavy pancakes, led the assault «ut breakfast time upon the sorely overworked stomach, hardly recovered after a night's rest from its herculean struggle with the hot bread, pie and doughnuts of the preceding sup- per. So much has been said and written on this subject that these causes are less active today, but they are still sutficient- ly so to bring misery to large numbers. The familiar symptoms of dyspepsia are a coated tongue, a disagreeable breath and a bad taste in the mouth. The ap- petite may be poor, or it may be raven- ous, there may be nausea and vomiting, a feeling of weight in the stomach and often of oppression in the chest, There will probably be much flatulence and heartburn, and more or less acute pain. A great danger to be avoided in dyspep- sla is self-treatment. The patient watches himself, cuts off one article of diet after another which he has been led to believe, often without reason, to be injurious to him, until he nearly starves himself; or he swallows box after box of pills, or bot- tle after bottle of Dr. Somebody's anti- dyspepticum, until his powers of digestion are utterly ruined. If an intelligent physician is ever need- ed by any one, it is by the sufferer from this distressing and complicated malady, which must be taken in hand early to be cured easily, or perhaps at all.
