three years, and yet when Joachim began
his career Wagner was utterly unknown.
Joachim was a European celebrity long
before the name OF Johannes Brahms had
ever been mentioned in the musical world.
On May q, 1904, London celebrated the six
teth anniversary of Joachims first I'M
portant appearance in the English capital,
not his debut in London, however, for that
had been made at Drury Lane month
Moschees, and on May 10 the little
Joachim-he was then Is years old-had
his second engagement, at monster con-
cert" managed by Jules Benedict, at which
there also appeared Mendelssohn, Thai
berg, Sivori, Grisi, Shaw, Mario, Salvil La
blache, Staudigl, Dulken and Parish-Al-
vars. The famous letter which Mendelssohn
wrote to Leipsic after Joachim's Philhar-
monte debut In London has become one OF
the memorable documents of musical his
tory. The great violinist's first teacher
was SerwacZynski, and his next instructor
was Georg Hellmesberger, who considered
the boy a hopeless case, so far as bowling
is concerned" At this time the great Ernst
appeared in Vienna, and Joachim went 10
hear him. He became wild with enthus-
iasm, and would not rest until the IA
nous virtuoso had heard him play. Ernst
at once recognized Joachims genius and
advised him TO study with his own teacher,
Joseph Bohm. Joachim has always con-
sidered Ernst the greatest violinist he ever
heard-and he heard David, Ole Bull,
Vieuxtemps, Wieniawsh De Beriot, Laub,
Slyori, etc Joseph Joachims seventy-hfth
birthday doubtless brought him bushels OF
congratulatory kilograms, letters and
violin playing extends over this globe, so
wide is his fame and the love that the
fddlers bear him.

There are signs and symptoms OF a

the north of England and in Scotland.

CHAPTER TX.
The Sliding Panel,

well, we are here" said Tempest,
standing with the lantern in his hand.
I'VE own the caverns, what are we
going to do with them?"
The first thing" said Medworth 'is
to destroy this powder train, and take
precautions that the magazine is not
blown up while we are in here"
They spent half hour at this work,
and when they considered the maya
zine safe they began an ex animation
of their surroundings.
Not far from the powder magazine
they found a rude stone stairway
running from central position in the
cellar to an abrupt termination against
wooden door, what seemed to be
one at the top.
Upon examining the wall at the
to be door had no knob, and no APP
parent way of opening it.
This door. if it is door," said
Tempest was never made to OPEN
There must be a secret spring."
said Medworth. Surely the stairs are
not here for nothing. II force cannot
open the door let us look for spring"
They began a careful examination of
the surface of the door, and the walls
around it, going over every inch with
their finger ends. Tempest holding the
lantern to facilitate the search.
Hal Here is something" said Med
worth. "A button
but to no purpose.
II am convinced that this button
opens the door," he said. Nov, while
| manipulate it, you push the door 1t
may be out of order"
He tried again, and Tempest, putting
Guilty in opening it.
Now be careful" said Medworth.
They passed through the open door,
and found themselves in narrow pas
sage, entirely destitute Of furniture,
and perfectly dark save for the rays Of
the lantern.
There was no other door to this place
than the one they had come through,
but at the other end they found what
seemed to be panel in the wall. From
the side they were on it could be east
ly noticed, and Medworth marveled
that the trick was not more skillfully
done.
He placed his hand on this panel,
and found that it slid noiselessly to
the left.
Before them was large, sumptuous-
~ furnished library, the table of which
was strewn with papers and maps, and
the air heavy with tobacco smoke
though no person was visible. A lamp
shed gloomy sort of light over the
apartment. After making themselves
certain that there was no one in the
room, Medworth and Tempest went In
There was a door opening from this

room into wide hall. Peering out

into this, they saw, ct tbs further end
a sentinel standing, leaning ca his gun.
Medworth now examined the sliding
panel. He found that, rude as the con-
tfivance was on the other side here it
was most carefully executed thing
1T was simply one of any number OF
panels that ornamented the walls Of
the room. and when closed could not
be detected as different in it's construc-
ton from any of the others.
Medworth counted them, and found
that the sliding panel was the fifth
from either end, being exactly half
way.
They would have turned their atten-
ton to other things but hearing foot
steps they sprang into the hiding place
and closed the panel
They distinctly heard two men enter
the room.
Bending down Medworth applied his
ear to the panel to listen to what was
said
1t is strange-a most ineXplica BILE

1t is almost d certainty that neither

Strange. You say you rode to the
Carib's hut with Mattazudoo'
Straight from your presence. You
commanded Mattazudo to find and re-
turn my daughter. and it must be said
in all truth, that he seemed at least
to be sincere in his effort. We went to
the Carib's hut We found the old In
dian there. Mattazudo at once COM
manded him to deliver up the girl that
he, MattaZudo had brought there under
misunderstanding The Carib smoked
calmly on and asked how many more

seen. Matta2udo threatened to shoot
him, but nothing could move the old
Indian. | pleaded with him. I be-
sought him with all the energy of a
broken hearted father to restore my
daughter to me, but he still claimed
he had not seen her. Mattazudo told
me that Ramana was a friend of Go
mez, and no doubt had agreed to keep
silent. The only way of course. was
to get the truth out of Gomez When
we returned to the castle | taxed Co.
mez with the crime; but without wait
ing to deny it, he sprang upon Mat
tazudo with drawn sword, and would
have killed him, had not some of the
Zambos been standing near to inter
fere. Then, to me, Gomez denied all
knowledge of my daughter, and says
the story of Mattazudo is a lie Now,
what am l to believe? Only one thing
is certain-that my poor girl is stolen
from me. and I would give my life to
know she was safe"
The old Spaniard had not left the
room before two silent figures crawled
stealthily away from the sliding panel
and down under the foundations again
to lay tseir plan of action.
