AS he sat there, plans for the future
came trooping through his brain. Now
he could go home to England. The
weary years of wandering, hardship.
and ill-luck were all behind him. He
saw himself taking his proper place
once more among his fellows, wealthy
beyond the most sanguine dreams of
ambition or avarice. No more sleepine
out on the veldt, frozen by night and
roasted by day-for your African des-
ert, even within 20 degrees of the
equator, is as cold as Labrador between
sunset and sunrise. There was a
gentlemans estate, good society, and
pleasures innumerable at the end Of
the Journey!
And a wife, perhaps-the queenlv
Marcia Churchill.
They had laughed at him in Kim
| berly when he talked of new
diamond country away off to the north
east, and no one had faith enough in
his scheme, based on a story heard
from an old Kaf1ir, to lend him paltrv
100 pounds for an outfit. Well, the
laugh was his now! He would be a
diamond king!
Through all his visions of the past
with it's cruel hardships, and of the
future with its golden triumphs, there
noated a fair face-a woman's face
crowned with an aureole of dusky hair
framing a pair of steadfast gray ewes
that could look a man through and
through, and forever Danish falsehood
and guile.
But perhaps she had not waited,
All, in that case-and with sudden
Tightening of the chest Dysart half
rose to his feet, showing himself full
in the ruddy glare of the fire.
AS II in answer to the cruel thought.
from out of the darkness across the
narrow stream there was an angry snat
OF flame, sharp report, and with a
groan Richard sank back as though
hfeless, shot through the body!
A sound of hurried and scrambling
footsteps, sudden FLASHING in the
shallow water, and then there appeared
out OF the darkness whence the shot
had come the form of a man running
swiftly. He made straight for the 81
lent figure of his victim, grabbed the
bag OF diamonds lying by his side, and
vanished in the blackness whence he
had come.
A life-tragedy in the space of two
hundred ticks Of the watch!
The two Kaffir boys, startled by the
shot, saw only the silent form of the
"baas' and the swiftly moving appari-
ton that seemed to swoop down upon
them out of the African night.
With a simultaneous yell they
dropped their tasks and fled into the
surrounding blackness. Richard Dv
sart was left alone-dying, perhaps
dead-alone on the veldt, treacherously
and cruelty robbed of his hard-won
treasure!

Joey, taking a gun from the bed OF
the wagon, sneaked off upstream in
guest OF an Gland, a harte-beeste, or a
!klipspringer buck.
The white man, leaving all these de-
tails to his "boys," strode off in the
contrary direction downstream, ap-
parently at random and as though he
were likewise looking for game, until
out of sight around bend. Then his
whole demeanor changed. He at
tentively studied the dried-up shore on
either hand, crossing the exposed river
beach diagonally from the farther
margin of caked blush clay to the strip
OF coarse gravel and pebbles that
bordered the waters edge.
Apparently the indications were
satisfactory. Bending nearly double,
he eagerly scanned the patches of
pebbles, scratching here and there with
bis fingers, and letting the stuff winnow
through his hand
Suddenly, with an ejaculation of
pleasure and triumph, he dropped his
weapon and began to pick up pebbles
here and there. Curious dirty-looking
stones they were, grayish white and
rusty, but having strange fiery CLEANS
in their depths.
With feverish haste he produced a
stout canvas bag, holding perhaps
a quart, tied with leathern thongs.
Greedily he continued his quest, pick
