Sclmlters flashed 1 at them, arrows struck upon their mail 1 and the shields blazoned with the j death's head D'Arcjjerest. Through It all they went unseated nndf while the ; army of the SaracenfTBtared, at the foot of the horn of Hattln turned their horses' heads straight for the royal standard of Ealadin.' On they strug gled, felling or riding down a foe at every stride. Oat, still on, although Flame and Smoke bled from a .score of wounds. . : They were among the mamelukes, where their line was thin. By heaven, they were through them and riding straight at the well known figure of the suitaa, mounted on his white horse with his young son and bis emir, the prince Hassan, at his side. "S.i!ndin for you, Hassan for me!" scorned Wulf. Then they met, and all, the boat of Islctc cried cut in dismay as they saw tba commander of the faithful and bis horse Dorno to the earth before the last despairing charge of these mad Chris tian kn'bctf. Another insttnt, and the saltan was on bis feet again, and a score of sclmlter were striking at Godwin. Ills bors Flame sank down dying, but. be sprang from the saddle, swinging the loag ewbrd. Now Saladlu 'recertified, the crest upon! bis buckler nnd crU&out: ' "Yield ; you.. 81r Godwin! You have donb weij. Yi4d you!" ! Bet Godwin, who would not yield, answered: "Wbn I am dead not before." i Thereupon Saladln spoke a word, and, . while ct-rtaln of his mamelukes engaged Godwin la front, keeping out of reach; of that red and terrible sword, others '.crept up behind and, springing on him, , seized bis arms and dragged him ' to. Uhe ground, where they bound htm fast. Meanwhile Wolf bad fared otherwise for it was his borse Smoke, aim; stabbed to the vitala. that fell as , plunged on Prince Hassan. Yet he n: arose but little hurt and cried out: "l'hua, Hassan, old foe and friend, wo meet at laat in war. Come, I would pay the debt I owe you for that drugged wine, man to man and Bword to word.' "Indeed, it is due, Sir Wulf," answered the prince, laughing. "Guards, touch not this brave knight who has dared so much to reach me. Sultan, I ask a boon, Between Sir Wulf and me there is an ancient quarrel that can only be washed away in blood. Let it be decided hero and now, and let this be your decree: That if I fall in fair fight none shall set upon my conqueror and m vengeance shall be. taken fW-iGy ib5d." . 5 "Good," said Saladln. "Then Sir zWulf shall be my prisoner and no more, as bis brother Is already. I owe it to the men who saved my life when we .were friends.' Hassan , sprang to the ground, saying: "Your horse is dead, Sir Wulf, so we must fight, afoot." Then they faced each other, and, oh, the scene was. Strang! Up on the slopes of Hattln the fight still raged. There amid the smoke, and fires of the boning grass little companies of soldiers stood backV to back while the , Saracens wheeled ' round then, thrusting and cutting at them' till" they fell.

the air was rent wlfD shout? of victory and cries of agony or despair. And tti In tta midst of it all. rineed round with grave, courteous Saracens, stood the emir, clad above bis mall in his white robe and-' Jeweled turban, facing the great Christian knight, with harness hacked and reddened. For those who watched the battle was forgotten, or, rather. Its interest was centered on this point "It will be a good fight," said one of them to Godwin, whom they bad suf: fered to rise, "for, though your brother is the younger and the heavier man, be is hurt and weary, whereas the emir it fresh and unwounded. , Ah, they are atltr Haseanbad struck first, and the blow went home. Falling upon the point of Wulf's sfel helm, the heavy, razor edged sclralter glanced from it and Bhore away the links from the flap which hung upon bis shoulder, causing the Frank to stagger. Again be struck, this time upon the shield, and so heavily that Wulf came to his knees. "Your brother Is eped," said the Saracen, captain to Godwin, but Godwin only answered: "Wait." ' As he spoke Wulf twisted his body out of reach of a third blow, and while Hassan staggered forward with the weight of !the missed stroke placed his band upon the ground and springing to his feet ran ' backward six or eight paces. "He flies!" cried the Saracens, but again Godwin, said, "Wait." Nor was there long to wait. For now, throwing aside his buckler and grasping the great sword in both bis hands, with a shout of "A D'Arcy! A D'Arcy!" Wulf leaped at Hassan as a wounded lion leaps. The sword wheeled and fell, and, lo, the shield of tfae Saracen was severed in two. Again fell, and bis ' turbaned helm was "Farewell, brave knight.' cloven. , A.third time, and the right arm and shoulder with the scimiter that grasped it seemed to spring from his body, and Hassan sank dying to the ground. Wulf stood and looked at him, while a murmur of grief went up from those who watched, for they loved this emir. Hassan - beckoned to the victor with bis left hand. "A good stroke," Hassan said faintly, "that could shear the double links of Damascus i steel as though it were silk. t Well, as I told you long ago, I knew that the hour of, our meeting in war would be an ill. hour .forme and'!' naydebt Is paid.

BIT TO BE .. - OF MUCH VALUE The Dangers of DreacI Tuber- . culosis Are To Be Well Brought Out. PROJECT IS UNIQUE ONE EXHIBIT WILL BE GIVEN ON MAY 17 AND 18 AT SOUTH EIGHTH STREET FRIENDS CHURCHSESSION TO BE FREE. Arrangements for the public meetings and exhibit on tuberculosis, which are to be conducted bv the Men' Social Union of the South Eighth Street Friends' church, are well under way and the campaign promises to be of benefit to the entire community. Certainly there exists no public question of greater importance than that of battling the dread disease. One-seyenth of the deaths in thi3 state are due to tuberculosis, and it Is reported that for a period during the early spring one-fourth of the deaths In this city were due to this disease. The State Board of Health is authority for the statement that tuberculosis far exceeds any other cause of death in Indiana annually; that the disease Is readily contracted from others where careful sanitry precautions are neglected; that all the tremendous destruction of life due to it every year could be prevented if the public were alive to the facts, for this scourge is preventable and also curable in its early stages. The meetings mentioned above will take place on Thursday and Friday, the 17th and 18th of May. On these evenings lectures, illustrated in part with the stereoptlcan, will be giyen by local physicians. During the day there will be on exhibition a display of charts, photographs, slides and some other apparatus from sanitariums and out-door camps in various parts of the country. All the sessions will be absolutely free to the public and no offerings or collections will be taken. Al! that the Union asks of the public is the attendance and moral support which a campaign of such importance to every citizen deserves. The program in detail will be published later.
