the Mexican and left him bound to
a tree. Turning upon his captive
Tomas addressed him, the cold glow
or a cobra In his eyes:
"You," said Tomas, ARE one of the
creeping poison things of the earth.
You are like the snake that has the
rattle at the end of his tail, and are
like the scorpion that stings and the
centipede that bites. I should treat
you as my ancestors treated all their
enemies" Tomas drew his knife and
laid its side against the others throat
In the days of my fathers when
we made prisoner Of a man like Won
we staked him out on the red ants
nest or bound him In the red strips
OF rawhide. Then he suffered until
his soul went squealing like a rat into
the darkness of the hereafter. But
because of the white men who are INV
friends and who do not believe In sucb
things | will not put You to the tor
lure | will leave you here and see
what happens to you" Then Tomas
returned TO the village to see what
had become of his friends and the Ce
lestial.
Chu's lot was not much happier, for
ne was forced at once into a life of
slavery, and when Tomas found him
ne was working in field under guard
OF a brutal Aztec and the old priest
waiting his time, Tomas was able to
whisper to Chu, who told him.
Him and little missy and others
tall over cliff" He then described
the fate of the party. Chu was certain
they were dead, but the Indian still
mad hope and told the Chinese:
Get me lariat. Me see for myself"
Under pretense Of working. Chu
went to the house and secured the
lariats and the two started for the
volcano brink. Making mask of his
handkerchief against the smoke and
steam, Tomas lowered himself where
the hurdle had plunged, and on the
slope found pieces Of frayed rope and
bits Of the hurdle. Then he followed
the stream to where It disappeared
underground, and decided Dick and
his friends must have escaped that
way and that the river had an ont

who were taking this ride instead Of
us. But we have the satisfaction of
knowing that we did not show the
white feather and are dying game"
Dick, glancing back over the way
which they had slid, saw the priest
and Scarface peering down at them
over the ledge from which they had
been showed. Already the fumes OF
the pit below were winding around
them In wreaths, filling their eyes and
lungs and causing their breaths to
come In wheexing gasps. Then all of
sudden Dicks heart gave a great
bound of relief. Sliding over the lava
bed, the hurdle slowed perceptlbly as
1t tipped toward the crater, and Dick.
who never despaired of life, was able
to burst the ropes at his wrists, frayed
by contact with the sharp lava. Grasp.
rock he held back the hurdle and.
at the same time, released StebbIns,
who quickly freed the others.
At the left was continuation Of
the slope, to where the steam from
the volcano ran off into a small
stream, and In this they launched the
hurdle and were swept from the scene.
Their sense Of relief, however was
quickly changed to alarm, for dead
ahead was cave, into which the
stream of hot water disappeared in
darkness beneath the mountains They
discussed their predicament briefly,
then Dick made the decision.
"The old sailor of whom spoke
who was shipwreeked upon this coast,
told me other things that he had
learned of these Aztecs and this par.
ticular part Of the country. He got
this story from the Indians, who firm
~ believed THAT it was true. OF
course 1t may be a myth, but / will
repeat 1t to you and you can decide
for yourselves.
'These Indians told him that there
had long been a legend In their tribe
that In ancient days one Of their men,
bers had been captured and condemned
to death even as was done to us. The
members Of the Aztec tribe who sen
fenced him bound him to a mat and
sent him over this slide and In some
way he was precipltated into . nves

that burrowed into the mountains as
a mole does into mound. In utter
darkness he was swept along by this
subterranean river, finally losing con-
seriousness from fright, and only re-
gaining it when he had emerged from
the other side into vast body OF
cool water. The water had soaked his
bonds so that they stretched and at
last he managed to free himself and
make his escape A long while aft
erward he wandered back to his tribe,
a seemingly broken old man with hair
which had been made snow white by
his terrible experience. As he was
the only white-haired member OF the
tribe he was known afterwards as
the White Blackbird. His reason had
been partially dethroned by his ex-
periences and he could give no clear
account of what had befallen him, but
he remembered enough to convince
them that what he said was true and
his story was handed down from father
TO son through the generations.
Whether 1t was true or not, that Is
the way the old sailor got 1t, and
that is the way he repeated 1t to me.
The way the matter stands Is this:
"It's long chance-but our only
one. This river may go under the
mountains and take US to the Pacific,
after all"
All agreed with Dick, who released
the raft, which drifted to the opening
and disappeared.

Teel had been precipitated. Scarface
and the old Aztec priest watched them

faction Of the pair at seeing their
victims go to their death was great,
for now Scarface had no fear Of their
ever returning to interfere with his
search for the treasure again, while
the old priest Sloried in the thought
that he had upheld the traditions Of
his ancient race and once more be-
held the awful ceremony. Not for an
instant did their eyes leave the pit
until the victims had disappeared.
Their human sacrifice having been
offered, the Aztecs and Scarface and
his outlaws returned to the village,
where Lopez was dispatched back to
the schooner with Tomas to await the
others. Enraged at his brutal treat
ment, the Indian that night fell on
