of a sand lizard went out into the
stiffness like the. blows Of a sledge-
hammer.
"Who could 1t be?" I gasped.
II don't know" breathed the wom-
an. There are very few who know of
the Rocking Stone. Hush! Here he
comes!"
There was a rustic in the bushes on
the other side Of the gulch. then a man
broke cover and made n wild dash for
the bridge. I think the heat blinded
the woman for an instant, so that she
could not tell who II was, but it was
only for an instant. She rose to her
feet with a scream of agony, and as
she screamed l saw the cross strands
running from cable to cable break
through beneath the weight Of the
black bearded nan who had %skippered
the dahabeah that had brought her to
the sand bank!
He didn't go right through. His
arms caught the cables that were I'M
touched by the knife. and as l looked
at him swinging there with Ave thou

legs. I saw the woman dashing across

woman she was!
She had cut so many of those cross
ropes that 1t was a mighty risky job
for her to venture back to help him,
but she went. My, yes! She went
without thinking OF her own danger.
She only saw him swinging by his
arms. and those legs that had a mile
Of space beneath them. Those legs
turned me sick. I tried to turn my
head away. but he fascinated me. The
legs were clawing for support in a
way that was indescribable. l dreamed
OF them for months after that day.
The woman reached the side Of the
man and put her muscular arms
around his chest. Then she started
TO lift with every muscle OF her body.
1t made the little Hadesi on the Mecca
road cry when l told him OF that hap
pening. what a great woman!" he

I gave a mighty yell just Their and
threw myself on my face. 1t was the
only way to save myself. I clawed
with both hands at the little patches
Of desert grass, and, when I finally
stopped sliding, ! lay listening within
twelve inches Of the brink of the
chasm, listening to the tinkle Of some
thing that was falling through the
black depths that defed the moon
beams! And that something was the
Red Face OF Feerish Ali, which had
slipped out OF my hands when terror
had n me fling myself face down
and claw madly at every little tuft Of
grass to stop myself from being hurled
over the rim!

shelter Of brushwood. Voices came to
me out Of the silence of the night, and
as listened ! saw the woman and the
black bearded man conn over the
rise. They walked slowly down toward
the brink OF the c~revice, and it was
mighty evident to me that they were
hot upon my trail.
They reached the edge and stood for
a moment talking quietly, then the
man turned down the bank while the

her. Hurry! He Is gaining on u.s.
She staggered. and l grasped her
arm and helped her forward. Her
feet were bleeding from the rocks and
stones, but she showed wonderful
grit as she stumbled on. I had never
seen a woman with one-half her cour-
age.
We reached the Internal spiders web
across the abyss, and she led the way.
I had to give her the Red FACE to hold
while I dropped on my knees and shut

my arms and my eyes closed against
the horrors of the depths, and all the
time she screamed to me to go faster.

she pushed the mask into my hands
and thrust me behind the thick bushes
On the rim.
Quick, Give me your knife!" she
cried. Hurry. he Is coming!"
I gave her the knife, and she rushed
back to the middle of the bridge and
started to saw away at the little cross
strands Of hemp that we're knotted to
the two big rope cables that spanned
the crevice. She didn't touch the
cables. She only sawed at the hemp
lacing that bound them to each other,
so that a man running across would
step on q place that she had sawed
and go through into the abyss.
1t turned me sick as I watched her,
but when l looked at the mask at my
feet I forgot the murderous work she
was doing. God, yes! I wouldn't
have cared II a thousand men had
tumbled into that place as long as I
got safely away with the Red Face.
Life was a small matter compared to
that treasure. You bet 1t a I

woman walked slowly toward the
bushes where / was hiding. They had
evidently agreed to beat the clumps
along the edge in search of me.
I held my breath as she came nearer.
She passed within a yard of me, then.
as If she possessed the scent of n
bloodhound, she circled around the
clump, and came directly toward the

leg lest she would trip over it, and the

statue. | told her hurriedly of the hap

a curse on the thing. But the Black
Sheik would kill you if he found you.

watched her hurry along the rim of

coast. and five days afterward l

said. and. by the bones OF Marco Polo,
she was great! The black devil had
left her out on a sand bank two days
before, and she was risking her life to
ave him.
The bridge rocked and swayed al
she lifted him slowly. I think she
could have lifted him II he weighed a
ton. l am sure she could. Up and
up she lifted him till he got his knees
upon the strong cables, and / got a
cold chill when I saw that he was
safe.
I did some mighty quick reasoning
at that moment. The woman's hate
that had made her take h Red Face
from its hiding place had turned to
love when she saw that big brute slip
through the bridge, and it didn't take
me two minutes to see how I'd fare
now that they had joined forces. You
bet it didn't! I knew that Blackboard
was not an amiable customer because
she had told me that it was a good
job for my health that he did not catch
a glimpse Of me on the sand banks:
so when ! saw them crawling toward
me, l got busy.
"This Is where I DO a fadeaway," 1
muttered, and, gathering the Red
Face Of Feerish Ali in my arms, !
dashed Off full speed into the. cactus
and thorn clumps that fringod the
abyss.
All through that afternoon I al
without stopping. A score of times I
would have dropped from exhaustion,
but each time I glanced at the big
ruby in the forehead of the gold mask
I ran faster. The sun sank into the
west. shooting red lances al the ruby,
which the ruby returned, and still I
staggered on. Every bush seemed to
shelter the Bearded Sheik and his wife.
and I guess I was half insane with
terror when the night fell and q big
moor climbed over the hilltops and
looked at me.
I had no idea where I was. Some

the methods of expressing thought
through action.
Their first pictures were made in
a mail studio on Nassau street. and
practically all the work was per-
formed by themselves. Their present
productions are being filmed in elabo-
rate studios both in New York and
Los Angeles, and for one single thrill
in THE Juggernaut" s25. 900 was spent
on a scene in which an entire passen-
ger tra!r nd a railroad bridge were
wrecked.
Siegmund Lubin. an optician and an
inventor. owned a small optical store
in Philadelphia. He was the first man
to operate a chain of we'll appointed
little picture theatres and make the
pictures that he exhibited. Now he
has studios in Philadelphia, Florida
and California, and recently in order
to secure the settings considered
necessary for the production of 1.-THE
Sporting Duchess" n mansion with a
500 acre estate twenty miles outside
of Philadelphia was purchased out
right.
Mr.. Selig has studios both in Europe
and America. and his 200 in California
Is valued at close to $500 900. A mag
nifcent gateway stands at the en-
ran to the grounds on which the
animal pictures are made. 1t is of
carved stone elephants and cost $780,
900 to erect.
Thirty camels and a tiger from this
200 are introduced in THE Carpet
From Bagdad," one of his recent pro-
auctions. In making this picture q
sandstone was considered necessary,
and an entire company was sent INTO
the desert and maintained there until
nature obliged them with n terrific
storm.
George *. Spoor from a modest be-
ginning has come to the point where
in producing "Graustark" castles,
steamships and special scenery cost
ing a fortune were used.
The hardest work that c~onfronts
these men, now that the fight to gain
the public favor is over, is the mat
ter of selecting subjects that will APP
peal to so many million tastes. and
this in itself is no small undertaking.

struck terror into the tribes that
thought Feerish was a bloody eyed
Cyclops as he galloped down on them.
The treasure fascinated me. 1t hit me
in the emotional solar plexus. and I
could do nothing but fondle 1t and
weep over II.
The woman touched me on the
shoulder and brought me out Of the
stupor into which l had fallen. She
