bulb and turned the button. Then
holding the light in his right hand, he

a big polished crystal sphere was ex-
posed to view. 1t was about ten inches
in diameter and as clear as a diamond.
Rejecting the dull, sensuous lights over
head, and the bright rays of the electric
bulb, it was certainly marvellous sight.
Still Kola seemed unconscious of
their proximity, From the walls near
him the smoke of incense began to rise,
a rosy light pervaded the room, and soft,
seductive music was heard somewhere
above.
Kola held the electric bulb over the
crystal and began to gaze into its
depths, uttering in sing-song tones

away, it was thought that the old man
sion became unsafe, especially as it is
believed that there are caverns under
the hill"
Hendricks mounted the steps and
used the knocker vigorously. The
clatter had scarcely died out when the
tones Of bell as soft and mellow as
cathedral chimes in the distance came
from the house.
"Kola knows my rap and the bell is
signal to his attendant to admit me, p"
said Hendricks. ''If l make no mistake
you are going to be repaid for your ride
out here. In psychic tom-foolery and
mysticism you are schoolboy COM
pared to Kola. He imbibed it at the
dusky breast of al eastern mother, and
his very life is STEPPED in it."
The door was opened by an Indian in
the costume of his country. He placed
his finger on his lip to indicate that
they were to remain silent, and then
gave a salaam that brought his turban
almost into contact with the floor.
II want to see your MASTER" whls-
pered Hendricks, handing him his card.
Again the man bowed silently, closed
the great door, and left them in the
spacious hall, With many and profuse
draperies, Kola had hung the walls and
ceiling so that the effect was distinctly
oriental. The ornaments, scrolls, paint
ings and statues were all eastern, but
what struck Lampkin most forcibly,
perhaps because it was so i'll suited to
its environment, was dragon Of carved
walnut, which stood at the foot OF the
wide curving stairway.
THAT belongs to the house." eX-
planned Hendricks in whisper. ut is
a genuine curiosity. The carving is ex-
cellent, One would think it of Japanese
origin, but if you will notice, it is of the
same material as the balustrade, and
that must have been made in this coun-
try"
Just then the attendant glided from
between two heavy silken curtains, and
with another salaam, invited them to
pass before him. Doing so, they found
themselves in Kola's big reception-room
Here their vision was given rare treat.
The lessee of the old ruin had removed
the two floors above the one on which
they Stood giving q becoming altitude
to the walls, which were gracefully
draped with long flowing hangings of
different blending cloths. The ceiling
was disguised by filmy mass Of white
material, as gauzy as cobwebs, behind
which shone red and yellow lights, like
signal fires in n mist
Lampliin almost uttered an exclama-
tion of delight, but the impressive man
ner of the attendant and Hendricks
silence checked the impulse.
The servant gave them seats with their
backs to the door through which they
had entered, and then he stood still in
the center of the room, his head bowed,
his turban held in front of him.
After a moment the mellow-toned
bell, which they had heard before, and
which was suspended somewhere
among the lights overhead, struck three
times slowly. Then white light bazed
up and Kola was seen in hitherto dark
alcoye. He wore his gray gown and

Magnificent Residence to BE Erected
by Andrew Carnegie in New York
City.
Upper Fifth avenue, New York City,
is to be beautified by the erection of a
magnificent residence and the estab-
lishment of handsome pleasure
grounds by Andrew Carnegie. AS was
reported several days ago, Mr.. Carne-
gle was in negotiation for a plat OF
land on Fifth avenue, between Nineh-
eth and Ninety-first streets. This ar
rangement has now been completed,
and plans have been formulated for the
erection of a $1,OOOOOO residence. The
style of the mansion is expected to be
modified form Of French Renaissance,
finished off with the utmost regard for
details. An innovation in the arrange
ment Of this mansion will be that al
least half of the plot will be given up
to splendid ornamental garden, with
fountains, pavilions and terraces on
the avenue side laid out in the most
approved Italian style. The residence
itself will be four stories high, with
marble and limestone front, and elab-
crate carvings.

THAT OTHER TURK.
Would Not WrestIe ROeber and Bar
the StranEle Hold.

BALTIMORE. March 10.-The scheduled
wrestling match for tonight between Ernest
Roeber and Heraklids, the Terrible Creek"
for the championship of America, did not
take place. The articles of agreement stipu-
lated that the men were to wrestle catch-as-
catch-can, no hold barred. Deputy Police
Marshal Farne stepped upon the stage and
announced that the police would bar the
strangle hold. Heraklids insisted that the
agreement as signed should prevail, or no
match. After waiting for half an hour for
the Greek to change his mind, Roeber claimed
the decision, but Referee Doyle declared it no
match. Manager Hereford of the Eureka
Athletic club, offered the Loco spectators the
option OF receiving back their admission fee
or staying to witness bout between Roeber
and George Burlingame, local heavyweight
wrestler. Roeber agreed to put Burlingame
down in fifteen minutes or forfeit $780, Bur-
lingame stayed the limit. and was cheered to
the echo. In the preliminaries Fred Pack
