Not even the native conspira tors, who obeyed his orders, knew exactly who he was. They only knew that he was the hykmoot emeez, the Man of Mystery, who el-Andalosi told Lincoln had, during the last eighteen months, communicated with the leaders of all the many anti-European so cieties, Moslem as well as heathen ish Negro juju, througnout Cen tral and North Africa, and hadV persuaded them to listen to him and acknowledge him master and swear fealty. How had he succeeded? Lincoln never found out al though, in the end, he did dis cover the man's identity. a "TIIS word," el-Andalosi said " now, "is law." "I suppose," inquired the Amer ican, "he will order us to make common cause with the Germans and Italians?" ... "No." "I see. The other way around. Fight with the United Nations." "Again no." "Oh . . . ?" Lincoln was sur prised. "Some time ago, a dervish put the same question to the hykmoot I ameer. And he replied: "Would jyou call the lion to chase away ithe tiger or the tiger to chase away the lion?' " ; "Then what .'. . V j ' "Let the lion and the tiger kill ; one another or, at least, maul and wound and bleed one another so badly that, for generations to. Come, they will both be too weak to enslave honest Moslems, we, (the Arab smiled thinly, "shall help (matters along." ! "How can we since the master (does not want us to make war?" "He does want us to make war. "But you said ..." "Not' war either for or against Ithe axis. Nor war as the Euro peans fight it, with tanks and air- Planes ana miaxu Lja lmiaiuiu. How can we, not having the (weapons and there not being enough of us? It will be a dif ferent kind of war altogether. .War of the snake's fangs and the leopard's claws. War against all foreigners for are they not all our enemies? And killing the few, not the many. Killing picked individuals." "Political assassinations?" "Call it that I prefer to call it Executions of men justly con demned to death. On a certain day on the same day, so that the Ifear of it will strike simultane ously here and there, throughout Ithe land, the leaders among the oppressors, generals and gover nors, judges and consuls and prominent merchants, French, American, British, German, Hai tian, will die. They will die by i steel or bomb, by poison or bul let. Fate will crush them. Fate like a blind camel, coming out of the dark, with no warning, no Uingling of bells." He raised both his arms; looked at the domed ceiling with his sightless eyes. "Allah," he exclaimed, "is in deed Most Great! He is the Holder of the Scales of Justice with the Strength of His Hands!" a a a T INCOLN shuddered. He . felt something like a trembling, unclean elation run down his spine. "When will this day be?" he asked. "Very soon. The hi'kmoot amee will decide. He trusts neither let ters brought by messengers nor the talk of the drums; That's why, from all over the land, the chosen are hurrying to him now. You will go as the emissary of the Bi Hassanyieh and return with word of the glorious date. For here, too, are foreigners whom Fata must strike . . ." "And I bet," thought Lincoln, "Tm one of them." He felt a little ashamed of him self. The other, years ago, had been his friend. And here, to night, he was acting the spy, sucking the man dry of vital, per ilous information. "Whom," he inquired, "would you have sent if Fosiha had not known where I was? For I sup pose there are others left here of ithe brotherhood." "A few. But all of them crude peasants and cameleers. Not to be entrusted with a grave mission. Thus," with superb simplicity, "I prayed to Allah and He listened to me and sent you." He was silent. "Can you imagine the outcry of horror, of fear, on the day we strike?" he went on triumphantly. "Can you imagine the confusion in the midst of war? And what can the foreigners do? Find the murderers? Hang them? What of it? Other martyrs will carry on the blessed, blessed work." Lincoln bit his lips. Thank God that he had found out about it in time! (To Be Continued) HOLD EVERYTHING!
