hands, and he knew by it's weight
that she was right. Under the water
it would be easy enough to carry, but
it would be heavy load for a man to
shoulder.
Come" Baraka said, 81 will go back
first"
She moved down into the deeper
water again, till it was up to her
neck; and feeling the way with her
hands she went in once more under
the rock The traveller followed her
cautiously, carrying the heavy sack
under water with one hand and hold.

water" Baraka said, just as before.
when they had been going in.
When she had spoken, she heard a
heavy splash not far of, and the wa
ter in the subterranean channel rose
suddenly and ran past her in short
waves, three of which covered her
mouth in quick succession and
reached to her eyes, and almost to the
top of her head, but sank again in
stantly; and they passed her com
panion in the same way, wetting his
weaHSn.
Go back" Baraka said, when she
could speak; the rock is falling"
The traveller turned as quickly as he
could, and she came after him, gaining
on him because he carried the heavy
sack and could not move as fast as
she. He felt his damp hair rising
with fear, for he believed that, after
all, she had brought him into trap.
They reached the opening and came
out into the pool again.
You have brought me here to die, ,"
| he said. Your father and your broth.
eEs have shut up the entrance with
great stones, and they will go up the
mountain and let themselves down
from above with ropes and shoot me
! like a wolf in a pit-fall But you shall
die first. because you have betrayed
me-"
So he cooked his revolver and set
! the muzZle against her head, to kill
her, holding her by her slender throat
with his other hand; for they were in
shallow water and he had dropped the
sack in the pool.
Baraka did not struggle or cry out
Il would rather die by your hand
than be alive in another mans arms,
she said quite quietly.
He let her go, merely because she
was so very brave; for he did not love
her at all. She knew IL, but that made
no difference to her. since no otheI
woman was near; If they could gel
out alive with the rubies she was sure
that he would love her for the sake
OF the great wealth she had brought
him. II they were to starve to death
at the bottom of the great rock wal
in the mountains, she would probably
die first, because he was so strong;
and then nothing would matter. i
was all very simple.

ana was as pale as death-like Sap
pho, when q certain god-like man was
near. Yet the stranger saw nothing,
and his look was bright and cold as a
winters morning in the mountains.
Almost every day he went out and
climbed the foothills, and when the
sun was lowering he came back bring
ing herbs and flowers, which he dried
carefully and spread between leaves
OF gray paper in a large book; and he
wrote spells beside them in an un-
known tongue, so that no one dared
to touch the book when he went out,
lest the genii should wake and come
out from between the pages, to blind
the curious and strike the gossips
dumb, and cast leprosy on the thief
At night he lay on the roof of the
forehouse beside the gate of the court,
because 1t was cool there. Baraka
came to him, before midnight, when
her mother was in deep sleep; she
knelt at his side while he slept in the
starlight, and she laid her head beside
his, on the sack that was his pillow,
and for little while she was happy,
being near him, though he did not
know she was there. But presently
she remembered that her mother
might wake and call her, and she
spoke very softly, close to his ear,
fearing greatly lest he should start
from his sleep and cry out.
"The ruby mine is not far off," she
said. 81 know the secret place.
Rubiesi Rubies! Rubies! You shall
have as many as you can carry Of the
bloodred rubies!"
He opened his eyes, and even in the
starlight they were bright and cold.
She stro5ed his hand softly and then
pressed 1t little.
"Come with me and you shall know
the great secret" she whispered. You
shall fill this sack that is under your
head, and then you shall take me with
| you to Egypt, and we will live in a
marble palace and have many slaves,
and be always together. For you will
! always remember that It was Baraka
| who showed you where the rubies
were, and even when you are tired of
her you will treat her kindly and feed
her with tig paste and fat quails, such
as hear they have in the south all

She said all this in a whisper
stroking his hand; and while she whis
pered he smiled in his great golden
beard that seemed as silyery In the
starlight as her fathers.

cave, open at each end, wide at the
bottom and narrowing to a sharp
angle above. But the pool was fed by
a spring that never failed nor even
ebbed, though it must sometimes have
overflowed down the ravine through
which the two had reached the pool.
They came out from under the rock
at last, and we're in the refreshing out
er air. The still water widened al
most to a circle, tiny lake at the bot
tom of sort of crater of white stone
that collected and concentrated the
dim light On two sides there were
little crescent beaches of snow-white
sand, that cleaned like silver. The
traveller looked about him and upward
to see If there was any way of
climbing up; but as far as he could
make out in the half darkness the
steep rock was as smooth as If it had
been cut with tools, and It sloped
away at a sharp angle like the sides
of funnel.
Baraka went up towards the right,
and the bottom Rhelved, so that pres
waist and then she stood still and
pointed to a dark hollow just above
the little beach. Her wet garment
clung to her. and with her left hand
she began to wiring the water from her
haid behind her head.
"The rubies are there" she said,
thousands upon thousands of them.
Fill the sack quickly, but do not take
more than you can carry, for they are
very heavy"
The traveller waded out upon the
beach, and the water from his clothes
ran down in small rivulets and made
little round holes in the white sand.
He put down his revolver in dry
place, and both his hands felt for the
precious stones in the shadowy hol-
low, loosening small fragments of a
sort of brittle crust in which they
seemed to be clustered.
You cannot choose" Baraka said
"for you cannot see, but have been
here by daylight and have seen. The
largest are on tho left side of the hol
low, near the top"
BY the stars the traveller could see
the pieces a little, as he broke them
out, for the white rocks collected the
light; he could see many dark crys
tails, but as TO what they were he had
to trust the girl.
do not take more than you car
carry" she repeated. ''for you must
not throw them away to tighten the
burden"
''You can carry some of them" an
swered the traveller
He broke up the crust of crystals
with small geologist's hammer ant
tore them out like madman, and his
hands were bleeding, for though he
was philosopher the thirst for wealth
! had come upon him when he felt the
riches OF empires in his grasp. and
tlR time was short; and although ht
knew that he might some day come
back with armed men to protect him
and workmen to help him, he know
also that to do this y must share th'
secret with the over-lord Of that wilt
country, and that his portion might bt
the loss OF his head, So he tore at thu
ruby crust with all his might, and a
he was very strong, he rroke ou
great pieces at once.
"We cannot carry more than that
beth OF us together" said Baraks
though she judged more by the SCUM
OF his work than by what she coul
see.

CHAPTER !.

There is ruby mine hidden in the
heart OF the mountains near remote
little city of central Asia, unknown
20 European travellers; and the secret
of the treasure belongs to the two
chief families of the place, and has
been carefully guarded for many gen.
erations, handed down through the
men from father to son; and often the
children of these two families nave
married, yet none Of the women ever
learned the way 10 the mine from
their fathers, or their brothers, or
their husbands, SAone excepting one
only, and heIB name was Baraka,
which may perRAps mean Blessed"
but no blessing eame to her when she
was born. She Bwas much whittier and
much more beSutiful than the other
girls Of the little Tartar city; her face
was oval like FIN ostrich egg, her skin

Furthermore, he was a great physi-

about the size of a mans hand, in
(which was contained all the knowl-

book, and three small buttons that
yftasted of mingled salt and sugar, he

Satan entered the heart of Baraka,
and she loved the traveller who dweit
in her fathers house. for she was not
blessed; and she stood before him IN
the way when he went out, and when
be returned she was sitting at the
door watching, and she took care to

Her Pleasant
Evening

"You won't be lonesome" said Mrs.
RammersIee as she bade her husband
good-by, "for your Aunt Sally is COM
ing into town for days shopping,
and will pass the night at our house.
I wrote her that we'd take her to the
theater tonight and then when mother
sent for me to go up to the country
so suddenly it all went out Of my
mind. But you must take her, Ches-
ter"
"All right, May" answered Ram
merslee good naturedly. He was fond
of his Aunt Sally, who was just his
own age and did not look day older
than his pretty young wife.
She was unusually blooming that
night when she arrived and Hammers
lee said to himcelf that be had never
realized what a handsome girl she
was.
That's a stunning hat" he told her.
I'm glad you like t." returned
Sally. Il bought it to-day, for
wanted to do you credit"
There was an impressive rustic OF
silk when Sally appeared in the hall
after dinner in a delicate opera wrap.
He helped her into the taxicab in the
gay humor a man is apt to feel when
he has a congenial, pretty and we'll
dressed woman by his side.

FAIRFIELD

There was full attendance at the meeting of the School board. yester- day. Little business was transacted beyond the auditing of bills and the | discussion of minor points of discip- | line. new teacher was appointed for the school in the Stratfield district to fill the place left vacant by the marriage of Miss Wigham some time ago. Miss Rosetta Scanlon of New York, received the appointment. The ordination of Rev. John Maurice Deyo as a clergyman of the Congre- gational church, took place in New Ha- ven last evening. Mir. Deyo is Fair field boy, known to all the people of the town, and much interest was man. of the Deyo family went to New Ha- ven te be present. Rev. pr. Child also went, and Mrs. Deacon Osborne and her daughter. But for the severe storm there would have been a larger delegation
 Noting the fact that morning paper announced that the Roberts-Glover wedding is to take place on the 18th inst, when the 26th is the day set forth in the invitations. one of our To- cal clergymen remarked yesterday that it would be impossible to have a we'd ding on the 18th, as all the clergy would be in New Haven on that day 10 witness the 4aIe-darVdEQ game Ol football.
 There was to have been a meeting of the book committee at the library yesterday, but the storm prevented.
 On the 16th of this month Howard Thomas, long employed at the Betts grocery store. expects to go to Flor ida to spend the winter. MT. Thomas is widely and we'll known in town. and is a young man who will be greatly missed by all. He has the best wishes of all his numerous friends.
 The season for the feeding of birds Is at hand. A gentleman who lives in Church street, makes it a point to feed all the starlings. sparrows, and other birds. who will come to his yard. Many birds know the hospitality of the place, and flock to 1t for their FatiOns. They like the fact that the gentleman makes no discriminations regarding the feathered tribe.
 Oliver c. Jennings was one who went yesterday to New Haven to attend the ordination of Rev. MT. Deyo.
 Judge Elmore s. Banks has prepared a circular letter for the voters of the town, which is being widely distribut- able to ask for the votes of his party, as we'll as for the votes of all other men who have confidence in his polit- ica1 integrity, would seem to indicate that the times have changed, and that circumstances at the polls next Tues day may alter cases. Like Judge Peck of Stratford, who Is doing the same thing, the fact itself is prima facia evidence that the court takes Judicial notice of certain conditions, as existing and acts accordingly.
