try box is regarded as one OF the

The story of this crumbling bit of ma

the last 100 years six men have en-.
tered the tower and were apparently
swallowed up. None OF the seXtet, 1t
is declared, We're ever seen again. The
first three disappearance, Of which a
record has been kept, occurred within
the first halt Of the nineteenth century
and were separated BY considerable
intervals-the last one being in 1910.
Ten years elapsed and the memory Of
the mysterious happenings was wear
ing thin when three more men van
ished in as many days. Since then
the tower has been stunned as pes
thence, but its secret-if it has one
has remained undiscovered. All the
cases were identical In that the miss
ing one was member of the garrison
of San Cristobal detailed for night

legends by the score cling round this
ancient tower, but the mystery sur.
rounding the fate of the six luckless
"soldados" remains as deep as ever.
