They scarce- ly noticed that a group of horsemen, more gayly'uniformed than the ordi- nary soldiers, had halted and were looking at them. Horrible was the scene which every- where greeted them as they clambered back toward the road. The dead were piled upon the dying in every ravine. Red streaks seamed the white snowâ€" channels in which the current of many a life had drained away. But the old man’s familiarity with the ground round paths which the nimble feet of the maid could climb, so that the day was not far advanced when they stood on the site of their home. Scarcely a trace of the hamlet remained.

But for his white armor he could scarcely be distinguished from some subaltern ofliâ€" cer as he moved among his men in- specting the details of their encamp- ment. The contrast of the commander in chief with the kingly and the eo- clesiastical soldier was striking. He listened quietly to their surmises and fears and replied with as little of their excitement as if he spoke of a new armor cleaner: - -a c___ - _-,_. “I confess,” replied King Vladislaus. “that I liked not the easy victory we have had.

There is no fathoming the devices or Scander- beg‘s wily brain. And never yet has he been defeated, except to wrest the better victory out of seeming disaster. Does General Hunyades know the an- tagonist he is dealing with? That it is not some bey or pasha. nor ‘even the sultan himself. but Scanderbeg? I have heard Hunyades say that since the days of Saladin the Moslems have not had a leader so skillful as that Albanian renegade. that a glance of his eye has more sagacity in it than the deliberations of a divan and that not “Scanderbeg!” exclaimed Julian, with great alarm. “What! The Albanian traitor, Castriot? Ismriot, rather, should be his name. This, then, your majesty, is no night for revelry, but for watching. The flight of the enemy. if Scanderbeg leads them. is only to draw us into a net. What it before morning. with the Balkans behind us, “Amu'rath was not in personal com mand today. At least so I am told,” re- plied Vladislaus. “He is occupied with a rebellion of the Caramanians in Asia. Carambey, the sultan‘s sister's hus- band. led the forces at the beginning of the fight. He was captured in the hog and is .now in safe custody with the Sen ian despot, George Brankovitch. Hunyades and the despot have been bargaining for his possession. But the real commandant, as I have learned from prisonersâ€"at least he was present at the beginning of the fightâ€"was Scanderbeg.” “‘And with the angel there was a multitude of the heavenly host praising Godl’ Let us accept the joy of this eve of the birth of our Lord as an omen of the birth or Christian power to these lands, which have so long lain in the shadow of Moslem infidelity and,Greek heresy. Our camps yonder flash as the sparks which flew from the apron of the infant Jesu and terrified the devil.

The zoatherd passed between a line of sentinels, closely watched by each. The tent was a double one, compodn‘ a room or pavilion. inclosed by the great tent, ao that there waa a largo space around the private apartment or the general, allowing the aentlnela to patrol entirely about it without pui- lng into the outer air. At the entrance of the hnar tent Hunyadea appeared. “You have new. ““" N Albanian: but!» hard at “It cannot be," said the spenrman. “He has no business with any one but himself.” “No ear on earth shall but mine but the senators.” c1109 tpe ol_d man. run- - -A “I knew that the prodigal Prince George would come back some day," said he to himself. “Many a year have I kept my watch in the pass and among the mountains of Albania. And many a service have I rendered as a simple goatherd which I could not have done had I worn my country’s colors any- where except in my heart.” Kabilovitsch was challenged at every turn as he wound between the hun- dreds of campfires and tents. but the magic words, “Christos natus est," opened the way. A circle of splendid tents told him he drew near to headquarters. In the midst of them blazed. an immense fire. Camp tables. gleaming with tankards and goblets or silver. were ranged be- neath gorgeous canopies of flaxen can- vas, which were lined with blue and purple tapestries. A multitude of gay- ly dressed servitors thronged into and out of them. Here was the royal splen- dor of Hungary and Poland, there the pavilion oi’ the despot of Servia. there the glittering cross of Rome, and at the extreme end of this extempo- rized array or palatial and courtly pride the more modest but still rich banner of the White Knight. Kabilovitsch approached the latter. “Your errand, man?" said the guard. holding his spear across the flapping doorway of the tent. “That will do elsewhere, but not here,” rejoined the guard. “My business is solely with General Hunyades.” said Kabilovitsch. 7 “Heaven grant that you may shep- herd all Albania!” and the old man was off. can mnme our speech beneath the blanket.

The old man felt rather than saw that he was being closely studied from be- hind the folds of the hood which the wanderer drew close over his face to keep out the cutting wind which swept in gusts down from the mountains. He pushed very near and was talking to himself. as is apt to be the custom of men who lead lonely lives. “A mountaineer?
