Not every novice proceeds to the final vow." "Lonz have I been cocked in cold embroidered ilks and priceless Kerns," answered Rosamund, "and now I ceein o desire that white robe of yours more Iban anything on er.rth." There Wnlf '.eft her arid, ridlnjr away, reported lilmi-ilf to Kalian of Ibelin, the elected commander of the city, who was jr'ad enough to welcome so stout a lenhrht where kuihts were few. It wm oven.'n?, and Oodwin'a tired horse stunv'lfd slowly through the pTont camp of the Fnrneens without the wr.llM of fallen A'op.lan.

ctlier thought that ho was but one of the BUTreimei-ed Christian kn!t;hts. So l:e cauie to the roat house whore Salutlln lodged aiul bade the (,'uard take hi3 Jiame to tha sultan, saylnjr that he f raved audience of him. Presently he was admitted and found Saladin abated in council nmoi'jj hl ministers. "Kir Hod win," he said sternly, "seeing how you have dealt by me, what brings you back Into my camp? I jravo you brethren ycur Uvea, and you have r':bb-d me of one whom I would not iV. l not rob you, sire," answered CJo-i-.v ., who know nothing of thl. plot. "asVyo t':elr in. as 1 was sure that yon W;'1 think thus I am come from Je-ru'i'.-, leaving the princess and my l-rotliir there, to tell the truth and to m re ntter myself to you that I may bear In her place any pmilshyiorit which you think fit to Inflict upon the .woman Mnsouda." "Why should you bear It?" naked Salodia. "Because, nultan," answered Godwin' Fadly aud with bent head, "whatever the did rim did for lovo of me, thoush without my knowledge. Tell me, la she still liero or has she fled?". S "Fho hi Htlll here," answered 'Wyurin shortly. "Would you wish to see her?" y Godwin breathed a s'.sh of relief. "I i o," he answered, "once, If no more. I ' liave words to nay to her." "Doubtless she will be glad to loarri how her plot prospered," paid Saladin, with a prliu Bin lie. "In truth, It was Veil laid nnd boldly executed." Cnlihvvr to one of his council, that eirue old Inmum who had planned the casting of the lots, the eultan spoke with him aside. Then ho said: "Let this knltjht be led to the woman Masoucla. Tomorrow we will Judse Mm." Taking a silver lamp from tin wall, the tmautii beckoned to Godwin, who bowed to the sultan and followed. They pa: ed dowu loner passages. They cartie to rt door, which the Imaum, who Lobbied li: front, unlocked. "S!:e i:i under ward, then?" eald God win. "-Vrv"- wa? the answer, "und?r ward.

A shape lay there, Doubtliss It was Maw.d i Imprisoned nud asleep. "Mi.touda," he said, and the onudIva ct'ioaa from the arched walls anwem! l.-ack. "Masoudn!" How pound M;onrtu slept! Would fhe never wake? He knelt down beside her rnd put out his hand to lift the lonjr hair that hid her face. Now It touched her, and, lo, the head .fell over. Then, with horror In his heart. Godwin held down the lamp and looked. Oh, those robe were red and those lips wow ashen. It was Masouda, whoso Si-irit h?d passed him in the desert Masonda, slain by the beadsman's pword! Godwin rose to his feet nnd stood ocr her still she mo as a man stands In a lrc.;m. while words broke from his lips and a fountain in his heart was unsealed. . ! -MasoinW he whispered, "I know . now that I love you and you only henecicrih and forever, oh. woman, with n royal heart. Wait for me, Masouun. wherever you may dwell." While the whispered words left his lips It seemed to Godwin that once more, as when he rode with Wulf from AH Humors Pimples, boils, eruptions, enema or salt rheum, scrofula, are radically and pencant'iitty cured by Hood's Sarsapanlla IiduM or U'ulou, 109 Poms Out DolUtt.

'Hie man went dmvii like a felled ox. Ascalon, the stranpe wind blew about his brow, bringing with It the presence of Masouda and that once more the unearthly peace sank into his soul. Then all was past and over, and. he turned to Bee the old imaum standing at hint side. "Did I not tell you that you would find her sleeping?" he said, .with his bitter, ' chufklliip: laurh. "Call on her, Sir Knight; call on her. Love, they say, can bridge great snlfa, even that between severed neck and bosom." With the silver lamp In his hand Godwin smote, and the man went down like a felled ox. leaving him once more in silence and in darkness. For a moment Godwin stood thus till his brain was filled with fire, and he, too, fell-f?.l across the corpse of Masouda and there lay still. CHArTEIt XXII. j ODWIX knew that he lay nick, VjT ed to tend him In his sickuess be knew uo niore, for ill the past had gone from him. He knew also that he traveled while to was 111, for at dawn he would hoar the camp break up with a mighty noise and feel his litter lifted by slaves who bore him a loner for hours across the burning sand till at length the evening came, and with a humming sound like the sound of hiving bees the great army set its bivouac. At length that Journey was done, and there arose new noises ns of the roar of battle. Orders were given, and men marched out In thousands. Then rose that roar, aud they marched back again, mourning their dead. At last came a day when, opening his eyes, Godwin turned to rest them on Masouda, and, lo, she was gone, nvd h her accustomed place there sat a man whom he knew well Egbert, once bishop of Nazareth. "Where am I?" he asked. "Outside the walla of Jerusalem, my eon. a prisoner In the camp of Saladin," was the answer. "And where Is Masouda, who has sat by me nil these days?" "In heaven, I trust." came the gentle answer, "for she was a brave lady. It Is I who have sat by you." Then Godwin remembered the truth and, groaning, fell naleep. Afterward, as he grew stronger, Egbert told him all the story. He learned that when he was found lying senseless ou the body of Masouda the emirs wished Saladin to kill him if for no other reason because he had dashed out the eye of the Lcly lmaum with a lamp. But the sultan, who had discovered the truth, would not, for he said that It was unworthy of Ihe imaum to have mocked hl3 grief n:ul that Sir Godwin had dealt with him rs he deserved. So the Imaum lost both his eye nnd his vengcr.nce. Thus it had come about that the bishop Egbert was ordered to nurse him and if possible to save his life, and when at la?t they marched upon Jerusalem soldiers were told pff to bear his litter, and a good tent was sot apart to cover hiru. Now tho elogo of the hcly city had begun, and there was much rlaurhtcr on both sides. "Will it fall?" nrk'nl Godwin. "I fear so unless the saints help them," answered Egbert. "Ala?, I fear so." ' "Will not Saladin be merciful?" he asked again. "Why shov.ld he be merciful, my son. since they have refused his terms nnd defied hkn? Nay, he has sworn that as Godfrey took the place nigh upon a hundred year3 ago and slaurhtered the Mussulmans who dwelt there by thousands me::, .women and children togetherso will he do to t!i3 Christians. Oh, why should ha rpp.ro them? They must die. They must die." And. wringing his hands, Egbert left th? tent. Godwin lay still, wondering what the answer to this riddle might be. He could think of one, and one only. In Jerusalem was Ros.-,mua 1. the sultan's niece, whom he mu?t desire to recapture, above all things, not only because she was of hi.; blood, but'slnee he feared 'that if he did uot do his vision concerning her wo'Jld come to nothing.

We mem what RICHMOND HAS LOW TUX RATE Figures Sliow That Rste Here Is Smallest of Any City of Size in State. SIXTH IN PROPERTY VALUE THIS CITY HAS SMALLER POPULATION THAN GAS BELT TOWNS CUT PROFERTY IS WORE VALUAELE. Figures compiled by State Statistician Stubbs which give accurate information about taxes and tax rr.te3 in the cities cf Indiana show that in comparison with the other cities of its size in the state, Richmond has the lo-sert tax rate of all, and the value cf taxable property makes Richmond rank sixth in the state. Only the larger cities, Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, Evansville. South Bend and Terre Haute stand above Richmond in the val-;e of lands and improvements, as well 33 real estate. People in Richmond pay nearly twenty cents less on each 100 of rs-j-esscd valuation than do . people in the average city in thi3 state. The rate here is 1.G3V. on each hundred dollars of assessed valuation, while n other cities, it runs as high as $3 -2S, over twice as much. The lowest tax rate Is in Loootee. where but SI. 06 is paid. This tax includes the school levy for city schools. Is Small But Wealthy. While Richmond has a smaller population than the other citirs in the j'as belt, where there are many l?.r,re manufactories, there is a greater assessed valuation in this city than in thcs cities. South Hend. with a population over twice as lar: as that of Richmond, has property but half arain as much as that in this city Indianapolis, with a population of 200.000 has a property valuation of but ten tim?s that of Richmond, showing that this city owns property in proportion to its size. Munc'.e, Marion. Lafayette, while they claim larger populations than Richmond, fail behind in the amount of property. This year, tb& assessed valuation cf Richmond property will be over $100,000 greater than It was last yenr, swelling the total to nearly Largs City Assessments. property in the cities ot the State forj
