them. I had to draw all the health, strength from my body in order to gather power to speak with the Star. It was dangerous business, Macuma- zahn, for if had let things go little further they must have stopped so, and there would have been an end of In- daba-zimbi An, you white men, you know so much that you think you know every thing. But you don't! You are always staring at the clouds and can't see the things that lie at your feet You hardly believe me now, do you, Macumazahn? Well, I will show you. Have you any thing on you that the Star has touched or worn?'
 l thought for moment, and said that I had a lock of her hair in my pocket book. He told me to gi,A it to him. I did so. Going to the fiiG, he lit the lock of hair in the flame. and let it burn to ashes, which he caught in his left hand These ashes he mixed up in paste with the juice of one of the leaves of the plant have spoken of.
 "Now, Macumazahn, shut your eyes," he said.
 Idid so, and he rubbed his paste on to my eyelids. At first it burnt me, then my head swan strangely. Presently this effect passed off, and my brain was perfectly clear again, but 1 could not feel the ground with my feet. Indaba- zimbi led mo to the side of the stream. Beneath us was pool of beautifully clear water.
 Look into the pool, Macumazahn," said Inda ba-zimb bi, and his voice sounded hollow and far away in my ears.
 I 1011yoa Tho i@ cleared, and in it was picture. I saw a cave with a fire burning in it. Against the wall of the cave rested Stella. Her dress was torn almost off her, she looked dreadfully pale and weary, and her eye lids were red as though with wee: ing. But she slept, and I could almos, think that l saw her lips shape my name in her sleep. Close to her, her head upon Stella's breast, was little Tota: she had skin thrown over her to keer out the night cold. The child was awake, and appeared to be moaning with fear. By the fire, and in such a position that the light fell full upon her face, and engaged in cooking something in rough pot shaped from wood, sat the Baboon-woman, Hendrika She was clothed in baboon skins, and her face had been rubbed with some dark stain, which was, however, wearing of it. In the intervals of her cooking she would turn on Stella her wild eyes, in which glared visible madness, with an expression of tenderness that amounted to worship. Then she would stare 9. the poor child and gnash her teeth as though with hate. Clearly she was jealous of it. Round the entrance arc!. of the cave peeped and pccred the head, of many baboons. Presently Hcndrika

Gladstone's Way of Speaking.

A New Yorker who recently heard Gladstone speak in England says: "When MT. Gladstone rose to speak his frame, which is almost massive, seemed to defy the inclemency of the place. When he commenced speaking ho grasped the lapels of his coat in an awk- ward manner and hesitated more than you would expect in such a veteran of parliamentary debate. But as he grew more earnest all appearance of awk- wardness passed away. There Was no delay for choice of words, and the audi ence listened spellbound. He had pe- culiar way of drawing back the corners of his mouth just before beginning to speak, as if he was trying to get pur- chase upon the sentence he was com" mencing. His voice is remarkably clear for man of his age.-N. Y. World.

throwing rope over the trunk of a of the opening. This we accomplished with some trouble and the rest was easy. A foot or two above my head the handkerchief futtered in the wind. Hanging to the rope, grasped it. It was my wife's. As did so I noticed the face of baboon peering at mo over the edge of the cleft, the first baboon we had seen that morning. The brute gave bark and vanished. Thrusting the handkerchief into my breast, set my feet against the cliff and scrambled up as hard as could go. I knew that we had no time to lose, for the baboon would quickly alarm the others. I gained the cleft. It was mere arched passage cut by water, ending in 8 gully, which led to Q wide open space of some sort. I looked through the passage and saw that the gully was black with baboons. On they came by the hundreds. I unslung my elephant gun from my shoulders and waited, call ing to the men below to como up with all possible speed. The brutes streamed on down the gloomy gulf towards me, barking, grunting and show ing their huge teeth. l waited till they were within fifteen yards. Then I fired the elephant gun, which was loaded with slugs, right into the thick of them. In that narrow place the report echoed like a cannon shot. but its sound was quickly swallowed in the volley of piercing human-sounding groans and screams that followed. The charge of heavy slugs had plowed thr ugh number of the baboons, of which at least 8 dozen lay dead or dying in the passage. For moment they hesitated, hen they came on again with hideous clamor. Fortunately by this time Indaba-zimbi, who also had Q gun, was standing by my side, otherwise l should have been torn to pieces before 1 could reload. He fired both barrels into them, and again checked tho rush. But they came on again, apd notwithstanding the appear ance of two other natives with guns, which they let off with mere or less success, we should have been overwhelmed by the great and ferocious apes had I not by this time succeeded in relocating the elephant gun When they wero right

made Slgn to one of them: apparently she did not speak, or rather grunt, in order not to wake Stella. The brute hopped forward, and she gave it a sec ond rude wooden pot which was lying by her. It took it and went The last thing that l saw, as the vision slowly vanished from the pool. was the dim shadow of the baboon returning with the pot full of water.
 Presently every thing had gone. I ceased to feel strange. There beneath me was the pool, and at my side stood lndaba-zimbi, smiling.
 "You have seen things" he said. "1 have," I answered., and made no further remark on tho matter. What was there to say? Do you know the path to the cave?' added.
 He nodded his head. 'I did not fol- low it all just now, because it winds," he said. ''But I know it. We shall want the ropes.''
 ''Then let us be starting; the men have eaten"
 He nodded his head again, and going to the men told them to make ready, adding that Indaba-zimbi knew the way. They said that was all right, if 1ndaba-zimbi had ''smelt her out" they should soon find the Star So we started cheerfully enough, and my spir- its were so much improved that was able to eat boiled mealie cob or two as we walked.
 We went up tho valley, following the course of the stream for about a mile; then Indaba-zimbi made sudden turn to the right, along another kloof, of which there were countless numbers in the base of the great hill.
 On we went through kloof after kloof. 1ndaba-zimbi, who led us, was never at loss; he turned up gullies and struck across necks of hills with the certainty of hound on hot scent. At length, after about three hours march, we came to big, silent valley on the northern slope of the great peak. On ono side of this valley was series of stony l1oppies; on the other rose a sheer wall of rock. We marched along the wall for dis tance of some two miles. Then sudden ly 1ndaba-zimbi halted.
 ''There is tho place." he said, point ing to an opening in the cliff. This opening was about forty feet from the ground and ellipse-shaped. It could not have been moro that twenty feet high by ten wide and was partially hidden by ferns and bushes that grew about it in the surface of the cliff. Keen as my eyes were I doubt if I should ever have noticed 1t, for there were many such crags and crannies in the rocky face of the great mountain.
 We drew near and looked carefully at the place. The first thing I noticed was that the rock, which was not quite perpendicular, had been worn by the continual passage of baooons; the sec- ond, that something white was hanging on bush near the top of the ascent.
 It was a pocket handkerchief.
 Now there was no more doubt about the matter. With beating heart be- gan the ascent. For the first twenty feet it was comparatively easy, for the rock shelved; the next ten feet was very difficult, but still possible for an active man, and I achieved it, followed by Indaba-zimbi. But the last twelve or fifteen feet could only be scaled by

mouth and began to chew them, nut ter1ng as he chewed. Most of the re- maining leaves he threw on the fire. dense smoke rose from them, but he held his head in this smoke and drew it down into his lungs till l saw that he was exhibiting every sign of suffocation. Tho veins in his throat and chest swelled. he gasped loudly, and his eyes, from which tears were streaming, seemed as though they were going to start from his head. Presently he fell over on his side. and lay senseless. l was terribly alarmed. and my first inn pulse was to run to his assistance, but fortunately l remembered his caution, and sat quiet.
 1ndaba-zimbi lay on the ground like person quite dead. His limbs had all the utter relaxation of death. But as 1 watched l saw them begin to stiffen, exactly as though rigor mortis had set in. Then, to my astonishment, l perceived them once moro relax, and this time there appeared upon his chest the stain of decomposition. It spread and spread: in three minutes the man. to all appear ance, was a livid corpse.
 sat amazed watching this uncanny sight, and wondering if any further natural process was about to be enacted. Perhaps Indaba-zimbi was going to fall to dust before my eyes. As I watched noticed that the discoloration was be- ginning to fade. First it vanished from the extremities, then from the larger limbs and lastly from the trunk. Then in turn came the third stage of relaxa- tion. the second stage of stiffness or rfgor, and the first stage of after-death collapse. When these had all rapidly succeeded each other Inda aba-zimbi quietly woke up
 I was too astonished to speak. 1 sim ply looked at him with my mouth open.
 "Well, Macumazahn," he said, putting his head on one side like bird, and nod ding his white lock in comical fashion; 'it is all right; have seen her."
 "Seen who?' said.
 ''The Star, your wife. and the little maid. They are much frightened, but unharmed. The Babyan-frau watches them. She is mad, but the balloons obey her, and do not hurt them. The Star was sleeping from weariness, so I whispered in her ear, and told her not to be frightened, for you would soon res cue her, and that meanwhile she must seem to be pleased to have Hendrika near her."
 You whispered in her ear?" said l. ''How could you whisper in her ear?'
 Bah! Macumazahn. How could I seem to die and go rotten before your eyes? You don't know. do you? We'll, ] will tell you one thing. had to die to pass the doors of space, as you call
