The club house itself was beautiful

light in its artistic setting. The brick
chimney piece was half covered with
vines of green, intertwined with small
white roses, and at each side of the
fireplace stood pots of Easter lilies
in fun bloom. The big old-rashioned
settees were arranged with pretty
draperies and cushions; rugs covered
the floor. and in the corners of the
room and against ths windows were
handsome tree palms. Small tables,
from which refreshing drinks were
served, stood at the south side of the
room. The long table had been push
ed against the wall at the eastern side.

flowers. a tall vase with feathery
white flowers stood in the center, sur

With white roses, everything being in

were served.
Mrs. Malloch was assisted by Miss
Josephine Egan. Miss Anne Butler,
Miss Mary S. Jones, Miss Edith War

nelia Macleau and others of her I'M
married guests.
The contests began at o'clock. and

game from a distance in easy chairs
on the club piazza, or seated on the
club house steps, or else gathered for

AS he had not been able to complete

Dyaks penetrate to the interior. Yet
he thanked the good luck that had
showered such heap of rubbish over
the spot containing his chief stores
and covering the vein Of gold: Wild

the value Of the precious metal, and
if by chance they lighted upon such
a well-defned lode they might not
quit the island for weeks.
At last, on a command from the
chief, the Dyaks scattered in various
directions. Some turned towards
Europa Point, but the majority went
to the east along Turtle Beach or by
deserted. They were securing both
sections Of the island in full force.
The quiet watcher on the ledge took
no needless risks. Tho it was impos-
sible to believe any stratagem had
been planned for his special benefit,
an accident might betray him. With

all tours and, with comprehensive
glance, examined trees, plateau, and
both strips Of beach for signs Of lurk-
ing foe. He need have no fear. OF
all places in the island, the Dyaks least
imagined that their quarry had lain all
night within earshop of their encamp-
| ment.

wormed his way to the verge Of

grass-roots.
The Dyaks were already stirring.
Some were replenishing the fire,
Others were drawing water, cooking,
eating, smoking long thin-stemmed
pipes with absurdly small bowls, or
oiling their limbs and weapons with
impartial energy. The chief yet lay
stretched on the sand, but, when the

number Of his followers were out of
sight behind the rocks. Some of
them must now be climbing to that
fatal ledge. Was this the end?
Yet the girl, unconscious of the
doom impending, kept her eyes stead

Iris did not apply the consoling

and bent forward sufficiently In her
| sheltering niche to permit her to gaze
with wistful tenderness upon the man

for her sake. She could only pray
and hope. After reading those in
