pole alone puzzled me. Strive as 1 would l was
unable to decpher these.
The early morning found me again at Sc Clare
mont avenue. The old man opened the door, and
| followed him into his ROOM His only greeting
was, "Well?"
For answer opened the papers and asked the
meaning of the strange marks He seemed pleased,
and bade sit down. After time, during
which he appeared lost in thought, he began:
"It is now twenty-five years since the casket
with the papers and vial fell into my hands-how
[ came by them is no ones business" fierce
gleam shot into his eyes he said this, but pres
emily he resumed: "Those marks around the pole
indicate seven springs, each corresponding to
color in the rainbow Bring me seven drops from
each of those springs and l will make you the
possessor of riches greater than Solomons. Mixed
in certain proportions they the means by which
all the baser metals may be turned into gold.
When once obtained guard them with you life and
do not try to mix them you are doomed, for
by adding a fraction of a drop too little too
much and the light striking it, the result is the
creature or thing you saw appear which, when
once seen, leaves the desire to behold it again.
'To get the metal reducing medium light must
be used in the mixing, do not attempt it with
out knowing the proportions. These you shall
not know, nor shall any 1t is my secret. All
my life l have lived looking forward to this day,
Los Angeles herald., 1907-12-08

In the corner inlad table stood a curious
casket of carved ivory with bands of gold show
ing chased snake-like tracery that stood out
with startling distinctness. My absorption in the
surroundings was broken in upon by the entrance
OF an old man so bent by age that as he walked |
could not see his face, but only shock of
white, silky hair. He sat down in great chair
that stood beside the table. l noticed that his
clothes plain, although of good material. He
sat for a time without speaking, but presently
said:
why do you want to go South?"
The suddenness of the question startled me,
but in answering it and others he put gave him
a brief outline of my past life. When | finished
my narrative there silence again.
Finally he said: you'll do. Two others
here, but 1 know they lied. 1 don't want any
liars"
Speaking, he opened the casket and took out a
roll of papers and small vial filled with water.
Save these the casket had been quite empty. The
papers he put into my Land with the words:
"Go home and study these carefully. Come
back in the morning.
A marvellous change had taken place within
the bottle while he spoke. What appeared to
be water of crystalline clearness had slowly gath
cred itself together and then, with the rapidty of
lightning changed into snakelike creature of
unimaginable beauty. All the colors in nature
glowed along it's snuous length, and it seemed
studded with jewels. AS l looked upon it there
were no eyes visible yet l felt as though: mil

eagerly sucked up and stored
away. Any book of travel in the far Southern seas
that fell into my hands held me tense and breath
less until finished.
In my youth, when the eyes of the world were
on the North Pole and those risking their lives in
seeking it, mine were turned in longing toward
the South Many the day dream had, and many
the air castle built of the time when | should at
tain my desire and stand upon my deck south
ward bound. Endless the fame of the who
should announce the discovery of the South Pole.
My father, although man of very limited MEANS
did everything in his power to further my amb
tion. He gave good common school educa
tion and armed with this and what technical in
formation had been able to pick up, at the age
of eighteen l ready to make a start in the
world. This did, shipping as sailor on
vessel bound for Japan and the East Indies.
l followed the sea for several years, learning all
that sailor should know and sailing in every sea
except the desired one.
The winter of 19- found in London with
what money l had saved-no inconsiderable
determined to try to interest of wealth
sufficiently to induce him to become my partner
in the fitting out of a vessel in which to seek the
South Pole. The months passed in frutless eff
fort, and l had quite despaired when day in
the early spring, just the first tender green of
the bursting buds beginning to show, the
following advertisement in the London Times
caught my eye:
"Wanted-Young man of steady purpose, row
ing disposition, to take charge explorations in
Southern Seas. Answer SEAMAN Sc Claremont
avenue
L felt that here was my longsought opportu-
nity yet instead of going at to Sc Claremont
avenue l fell to speculating as to what kind of
he might be who hoped to find such par
adox-"a young man of steady purpose and
ing disposition" He might be visionary who
hoped to discover the lost Atlantis, or miser
who sought gold, who simply wished to
take a pleasure trip. The advertisement might
prove to be the ingenious trap whereby
porter hoped to catch material for a good story.
This last thought brought out of my chair
with bound, and l realized how firm a hold the
belief in the honesty of the advertisement and
that would be engaged had taken upon me. l
rushed out to find Claremont avenue. Imagine
my disappointment to discover it in a mean por-
tion of the city far from the water front.
No. Sc did not in any way reassure me. From
its appearance 1 Judged it to be sailors cheap

tial mansion on a grand avenue.
My first thought was to turn away, but curio-
sity bade me go on. | pulled oldfashioned
doorbell and slovenly woman asked what l
wanted. l showed the advertisement and she
said, ungraciously enough, "Come in," then
showed into the strangest room which in all
my wanderngs it had ever been my lot to enter.
The walls completely covered with tapes
tries wrought in grotesque patterns of flaming
colors. The chairs were of woods and workman

ing out my very soul with
steady gaze.
Strange emotions took pos
session of me. Murder crept
into my heart and | turned

contents to the old man,
whom l had quite forgotten.

vision a seething mass of briE

ing it upon the floor. AS the
contents came in contact
with the air a thick vapor
arose with a sickening odor.
With the disappearance of
the creature | was conscious
of a change in myself. The
colors faded from about the
old man, my mental balance
returned, and | felt a vague
surprise at my recent ex-
perience, but a subdued long
ing to see the creature again.
l expected some explanation,
but he only said: "The papers
first; the vial tomorrow.
With this he moved toward
the door, and I found myself
in the street with nothing
but the roll of papers grasped
tightly in my hand to assure
me that l had not been the
victim of charlatanism.
After wandering about for
some time to steady my
nerves l returned to my lodg-
ings and spent the remainder
of the day and the following
night in close study of the
papers.
They proved to be charts of
the South Seas, and showed
a direct course to the very
pole itself. Not a doubt of
their accuracy crossed my
mind, and by morning I was
quite familiar with every
rock, shoal and current
