they had done all they could. I had been con-

could hardly drag around. / had such pains in
my back and abdomen could not stand on my
feet for more than a few minutes My feet
were cold or burning, and my periods came too
often. The doctors said it was change of life,

MOUTH OF A SUPPOSED TREASURE CAVE
came iii and went to Cairo, where he
died. The map disappeared. presuma-
bly, going with the man who returned
to Spain.
Where the Spapiards had abandoned
the search the settlers In the neighbor-
hood took it up. They hammered the
solid cliffs, seeking sounds that would
locate the sealed cave. They cleaned
out crevices and rolled away powders.
Like nimble gatherers of the edelweiss.
they scaled high cliffs and went up and
dcwn upon ropes and vines. But never
q pot of gold did they find. Their chill
dren did 1t all over again. and never
thing did they find. Then the grand
children, thinking their ancestors less
cunning than they, took a new whirl
at it.
The proof that the search has been
going ON in Swallow Rock for years
and years Is everywhere. Almost every
crevice and rock in the district bears
evidence that explosives and pickaXes
have been at work. The cliffs have
been hammered and hunted. and black
powder and dynamite have hurled
huge powders of limestone down the
hills. There are inscriptions in rocks
that date back three-Quarters Of CEN
tury. Heavy timbers have been put in
where there was danger Of rocks fall
ing In on the searchers. At the foot OF
the bluffs the whole level is q tenting
ground for treasure hunters. and every
where are the ashes Of their camps.
