THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, SATURDAY, JUNE 16. 1917 An Early Beach Devotee KING-KHYBER RIFLES TALBOT MUNDY W Tn
"None tta. lesn," said King. "I am aa officer of the Khyber Rifles, newly appointed. I asked you, have you a letter?" - ,f "AyV 1 . "Let me see It."- . ! "Nay!" . "I order you!" "Nay! I am a true man! I will eat the letter, rather!" "Tell me who wrote it, then." But the fellow shook his head, still eyeing the pistol as if it were a snake about to strike.. "I have eaten the salt!" he said. "My dogs eat me if I break faith! Who art thou, to ask - me to break faith? An arricer? That must be a He! This letter is : from him who wrote it. to whom I bear it and that is my answer, if T die this minute!" Kin let bis reins fall and raised glistened on the gold of his bracelet under the Jezilchl'a very eyes. "May God be with thee!" said the man at once. "From whom is your letter, and to whom?" asked King, wondering what the men in the clubs at home would say if they knew that a woman's bracelet could outweigh authority on British sod: for the Khyber Pass is as much. British as the air is an eagle's or Korea Japanese, or; Panama United States American, and the Khyber Jezallchis are paid to keep it so. "From the .karnal. sahib (colonel) at Landl Kotal, whose horse I ride," said the jezailchi slowly, "to the arriflcer at Ali Masjid I bore a letter also, and left it as I passed." "Had they no spare horse at All Masjid? That beast is foundered." There are two horses there and both lame.. The man who thou sayest Is thy brother is heavy on horses." King nodded. "What is in the letter?" he asked. "Nay I Have I eyes that can see through paper?" ' ."Thou hast ears that can listen!" answered King. "In the letter that I left at Ali Masjid there is news of the lashkar that is gathering in the 'Hills', above Ali Masjid and beyond Khinjan. King sahib, is ordered to be awake and wary." , ' "And no lame no more horses jumping them over rocks!'' "Nay. the karnal sahib said he is to ride after no more, jackals with a spear!" "Same old game!" said King to himself. "What knowest thou of the lashkar that is gathering?" "I?. Oh, a little. An -uncle of mine, and three half brothers, and a brother are of its number! One came at night to tempt me to Join but I have eaten the salt It was I who first warned our karnal sahib. Now, let me by!"-

"Nay, wait!" ordered King. But he lowered his pistol point, - To hold up a dispatch rider , was about as Irregular as any proceeding could be; but it was within his province to find out how far the Khyber jezallchis could be trusted and within his" power, more than to make up the lost time. So that the irregularity did not trouble him much. "Does this other letter tell of the lashkar, too?" . "Am I God, that I should know?" But of what else should the karnal sahib write?" - "What is the object of the rising?" King asked him next; and the man threw bis head back to laugh like a wolf. Laughter, at-'night.'ih the Khyber, is an Insult. Ismail chattering Into bis beard ; but King sat still. VObject? What but to force the Khyber and burst through into India and loot?. What but to plunder, now that English backs are turned ., the other way?" "Who said their backs are turned?" demanded King. "Haha-ha-ha-ha-ho! hear him!" The Khyber echoed the mockery away and away into the distance. "Their backs are this way and their faces that! The kites know it! The vultures know it! The little Jackas know It! The little butchas in the valley villages all know it! Ask the rocks, and the grass the very water running from the 'Hills'! They all know that the English fight for life!" "And the Khyber jezallchis? - What of them?" King asked. "They know It better than any!" "And?" "They make ready, even as I." "For. what?" "For what Allah shall decide! We ate the Bait, we jezallchis. We chose, and we ate of our own free will. We have been paid the price we named in silver and rifles and clothing. The arrflcers the sirkar sent us are men of faith who have made no trouble with our women. Wht, then, should the Khyber jezallchis do? For awhile there will be fighting or, if we be very brave and our arrflcers skilful, and Allah would fain see sport, then for a longer while. Then we shall be overridden. Then the Khyber will be a roaring river of men pouring into India, as my father's father has told me it has often been! India shall bleed in these days but there will be fighting in the Khyber first!" "And what of her? Of Yasmini?" King asked. "Thou wearest that and askest what cf her? Nay tell!" "Should she order the joailchi3 to be false to .the salt ?" "Such a question!" To be continued)

A PLEA FOR GOOD ROADS You can't send away for GOOD ROADS. The work must be done at home. The worst enemy of GOOD ROADS is out-of-town buying.

ROADS and TRADING in RICHMOND go hand in hand. .They are inseparable. You can't have one without the other. Every order sent out of town puts a stumbling block in the movement for GOO DROADS. But every dollar you spend in Richmond is a paving block in the path of progress and economy. Join the "Trade-in-Richmond Brigade" today. The closer at home you keep your dollar, the sooner it will get back to your own pocket. These merchants are leaders in Richmond's commercial life and will serve you at all times to the best of their ability. If the merchandise you want is not in stock, these merchants will get it for you.
