light OF the torch reflected the walls
on either side. Hayle wondered for q
moment a he followed his leader what
would happen to them if the Chinese,
of whom the old Frenchman had
spoken to Kitwater, should discover
their presence in the ruins, and should
replace the stone upon the hole. In
that case the treasure would prove of
small value to them, for they would
be buried alive. He did not allow his
mind, however, to dwell very long
upon this subject, for Kitwater, who
was pushing on ahead with the torch,
had left the passage and was standing
in large and apparently well vaulted
chamber. Handsomely carved pillars
supported the roof, the floor was we'll
paved, while on either side there were
receptacles, not unlike the inches in
the Roman catacombs, though for
what purpose they were intended was
not at first glance so easy to deter
mine. With hearts that beat tumul-
tuously in their breasts, they FASTENED
to one of them to see what it con-
tanned. The niche in question was
filled with strange looking vessels,
some like bowls, and others not unlike
crucibles. The men almost clambered
over each other in their excitement to
see what they contained. 1t was as if
their whole existence depended upon
it; they could scarcely breathe for ex-
element. Every moments delay was
ny liz 1,1a rhr A loo
the coverings were withdrawn and the
contents of the receptacles stood re-
vealed. Two were filled with uncut
gems, rubies and sapphires, others
contained bar gold, and yet more con-
tanned gems, to which it was scarcely
possible in such light to assign a
name. One thing at least was certain.
three men stood tongue-tied with
amazement at their good fortune. In
their widest dreams they had never
imagined such luck, and now that this
vast treasure lay at their fnger-ends,
to be handled, to be made sure of,
they were unable to realize the extent
of their future happiness. Hayle dived
his hands into a bowl of uncut rubies,
and having collected as many as he
could hold in each fist, turned to his
companions.
"Look here" he cried, cts the Bank
of England in each hand"
His voice ended in choke. Then
Kitwater took up the tale.
Il must get out of this or shall go
mad" he muttered, hoarsely. "Come,
let us go back to the light. If don't

of them by Mr.. Barrett, and the result
is that the practice has ceased or will

"You may resent it or not, as you
darned well please" said Hayle dog
gedly, biting at the butt of his cigar
as he spoke. "It don't matter a curse
to me; you don't mean to tell me you
think I'm fool enough to stand by and
see myself"
At that moment Codd, who had
been away Investigating on his own
account, and had no idea of the 9th
ers' quarrel, gave a shout of delight.
He was at the further end of the
courtyard, at spot where dense
mass of creeper had fallen, and now

Mr.. Codd, however, said nothing in
reply, but beat with his bar upon the
stone beneath him. There could be
little or no doubt about the hollow
sound that rewarded his endeavors.
"We've got it" cried Kitwater

heart of the mystery for all we

In less time than it takes to tell
Hayle had complied with the others
request, and was hard at work pick

enormous fagstone in it's place. A
state of mad excitement had taken
hold of the men, and the veins stood
out like whipcord upon Hayle's fore
head. 1t was difficult to say how
many feet separated them from the
treasure that was to make them lords
of all the earth. At last the stone

All her persuasions were in vain;

Leaving the jungle behind them
they found themselves face to face
with a curious stone bridge, spanning
the lake or moat which surrounded
the city, and in which the lotus flower
bloomed luxuriantly. When they hao
crossed the bridge, they stood in the
precincts of the city itself. On either
hand rose the ruins in all their soli-
tary Bankruptcies, temples, mar
ket places, and houses in endless con-
fusion; while, at the end of the
bridge, and running to right and left
as far as the eye could reach, was a
high wall, constructed of large stones,
each one of which would have re-
quired the efforts of at least four men
to lift it. These, with few excep-
lions, were in an excellent state of
preservation. Passing through the
massive gateway the travellers found
themselves in an open square, out of
which streets branched off to the right
and left, while the jungle thrust in its
anquisitive nose on every possible oc-
ecasion. The silence was so impress
.'sive that the men found themselves
speaking in whispers. Not a sound
was to be heard save the futterng of
birds wings among the trees, and the
obscene chattering of the monkeys
among the leaves. From the first
great square the street began gradu-
ally to- ascend; then another moat was
crossed, and the second portion of the
city was reached. Here the buildings
we're larger, and the sculpture upon
the walls more impressive even than
before. In the narrower streets
creepers trailed from side to side, al
most shutting out the light, and. add
ing twilight effect to the already
sufficiently mysterious rooms and
courtyards to be seen within.
This is by no means the most
cheerful sort of place." said Hayle to
kitwater, as they passed down a
paved street side by side. "Where do
you expect to find the great temple
nd the courtyard of the Three Ele-
plants Heads?"
Straight on" said little Codd, who
was behind, and had been comparing
ithe route they were following with
'the plan he held in his hand.
AS he spoke they entered another
square, and saw before them mighty
flight of steps, worn into grooves il
places by the thousands of feet thai
had assembled and descended them il
days gone by. At the top was sculp
tured gateway, finer than anythin!
either of them had ever seen, and thi
fthey presently entered. Above them

into the blue. were the multitudinou
domes and spires of the kings palace
to which the gateway above the step
was the principal entrance. Some o
the spires We're broken, some were coy

lated by time and by stress of weather
