"Who'd take all that stuff to Europe, where . they make It?" he reflected. "And " what 'ud they use camel harness, for in France?" At his leisure in his own way, that was derious and like a string of miracleshe filtered toward . the teleigraph office, The native who had followed htm all this time drew closer, but he' did not let himself be troubled by that.' ' : ' He whispered proof of , His identity to . the telegraph clerk, who . was a Royaf Engineer, new to that job that morning, and a sealed telegram was handed to him at once. " The "shadow? came,, very close, indeed, presumably to try" and read over bis shoulder from behind,' but be side-stepped into a corner and 1 read the telegram with his back" to the wall.' . .' r " 4 It wm in English, no doubt to escape suspicion;' and because It was war-time, and the censorship had closed on India like a throttling string it was not in. code. So the wording, ell things considered, had to be insenilis, for the Mirza Ali, of the Fort, Bombay, to whom it was addressed, tould scarcely be expected to read more than between the lines. The lines had to be there to read between. '. ."Cattle Intended for slaughter," it 1 an, "despatched Bombay on Fourteen down. Meet train.

It was "signed "Suliman." " ; "Good!" he chuckled. "Let's hope . Tre get Abdul too. I wonder who he ;! . ....... '". .Still cnlnterested in the man who shadowed him, he walked back to the office window and wrote two telegrams; one to Bombay, ordering the - arrest of All Mirza of the Fort, with an urgent admonition to discover who his man Abdul might be, and to seize him as soon as found; the other to the station in the north, insisting on close ', confinement for Suliman. "Don't let him out on any terms at all!" he wired. That being all the urgent business, he turned leisurely to face his shadow and the native met his eyes with the engaging frankness of an old friend, . coming forward with outstretched hand. They did not shake hands, for King knew better than to fall Into the - first trap offered him. But the man . made a signal with his fingers that Is "known to not more than a dozen men in all the world, and that changed the . situation,, altogether. , "Walk with me," said King, and the . . ,.11 i i . . i j i j He was a Ranger. which is to say turned Mohammadan.

' On second thought, and at the next opportunity to see them, King was not . so sure that the eyes were brown, and he changed his opinion about .. their color a dozen times within the hour. Once he would even have sworn they were green. The man was well-to-do, for his turban was of costly silk, and he was; Clad in expensive Jodpur ridingbreeches and spurred black riding boots, all . perfectly immaculate. The -breeches, baggy above and tight below suggested the clean lines of cat-like agility and strength. The upper part of his costume was semi-European. He was a reular Ranger dandy, of the type that can be seen playing polo almost any day at Mount Abu that gets into mischief wiin a grace auo uj pntcnoo uu Heredity but that does not manage its estates too well, as a rule, nor pay its i debts in a hurry. . "My name is Rewa Gunga," he said in a low voice, looking up sidewise at King a shnde too guilelessly.

"From her!" said the Rangar. and without exactly knowing why, or being: nleascd with himself. King felt excited. They were walking toward the station exit.
