Edward VII of England, and the $85,000 colt Hurrie On. “Arablan Nights” Remance. ® “To unravel this 300,001 Arabian Nights romance one can begin with a ' bath tub in a French chateau near Chambery or travel back nearly 1,000 years to the unscalable fortress of Alamut high in the Elbruz Mountains overlooking the plain of Teheran. “Twenty-three yvears after William the Conqueror won the battle of Hastings, one Hasan Sabbah, by clever deceit, captured the fortress of Alamut. If he lived today Sabbah could earn the name ‘master mind,’ or even ‘anarchist’; as it was, he became famous as the | founder of the Assassins. As grand master of a secret society he schemed to free Persia from Arab domination by Yollln( through & Moslem sect called imailis, who traced their line of faith to Patima, daughter of Mohammed. Minority Rule With a Dagger. “Lacking followers in large numbers Hasan Sabbah turned for power to the dagger. He dedicated his sect to murder. From impregnable Almut, ‘the Vulture's Nest,’ he ordered the kill- ing of sultans, caliphs, kings and crusaders. It was always a ruler into| which the dagger was plunged. For two centuries Hasan Sabbah, the old man of the mountains, and his suc- cessors spread terror through the world. “The grand master gave orders to| id priors serving - in different istricts: Kerman in Persia, Syria, and elsewhere.

In Alamut, this master criminal caused to be made a| gc;, beautiful, secret roses and other flowers, trees bear! peaches and plums, and vines wil luscious grapes. Fountains tossed their lpu into mirror pools bordered by gay ns. This exquisite garden he peopled with lovely women. In the arid | mountains of Persia he created a paradise to serve his evil designs. Initiates Get Taste of “Paradise.” “When trusted fidais candidates reached Almut they were drugged and | carried unconscious into the garden.
