must have fallen at some time from

be so poised that at touch it could
be swung into one of TWO positions,
alternately disclosing and concealing
the tunnel 10 the cliff wall.
I stepped within, and, striking
match, perceived that was standing

heart of the mountains
The interior was completely dark
At intervals I struck matches from
the box which had brought with me.
but the road always ran clear and
straight ahead, and I could even
guide myself by the ruts in the ground.
advanced cautiously until the light
grew quite bright; I saw the tannel
end in front of me, and emerged into
an open space in the heart of the
hills.
/ glanced at my watch. It seemed
that I had been travelling for an inter.
minable time, but it was barely eleven
o'clock. I felt drowsy, and somehow,
before I was aware of any fatigue /
was asleep.
1t was three o'clock when I awok1
and at first, as always since my jour
ney began, I could not remembef
where was. And, as always, it was
the thought of Jacqueline that recalle<
me to my surroundings.
I sprang to my feet and made hast&
preparations to resume my journey.
In the first cave that I explored }
found a stock of provisions-four and
| canned meats and matches -snugly
| stored away safe from the damp ane
| snow. Near by were picks and shov
els and three very reputable blankets
| with a miscellany Of materials sugges
tive of the camping party's outfit.
I might have been more surprised
than I was, but my thoughts were ar
centered on Jacqueline, and the wan
ing Of the light showed me that the
sun must be we'll down in the sky
I must go on at once If I were to
reach the chateau that night.
AS I proceeded I kept looking to the
left to endeavor to locate the narrow
passage into which had strayed, but
it must have been the merest opening
in the wall, so small that only a mir
acle Of chance had led me into it, fol
I saw nothing but the straight passage
before me.
Presently I began to hear a murmul
of water in the distance and then {
faint flicker of light.
The thunder of the cataracts filled
my ears. A fine spray, like carmen
of filmy silk, obscured my cleare
vision but through and beyond it, be
tween two torrents that sailed abov'
like crystal bows, saw the chatea'

CHAPTER XII.
The Roulette Wheel.

The building stood far back be-
meath the overhanging ledge and
seemed to be secured against the liv.
ing rock. It was evident that there
was no other approach except the tun-
mel through which I had come, for all
around the land that turbulent whirl.
pool raved where the two cataracts
contended for the mastery of the wa.
ters.
It was almost dark now and grow
ing bitterly cold. I felt in my pocket
for my pistol and loaded it with the
two cartridges that alone remained Of
the lot I had brought with me. Then
I advanced stealthily until I stood be-
meath the cataract; and here I found
the spray no longer drenched me. l
came upon door in the dark wing
and, turning the handle noiselessly,
found myself inside the chateau. And
at once my ears were filed with yells
and coarse laughter in mems and
women's voices.
AS my eyes became accustomed to
my surroundings I perceived that ]
was standing near the foot Of an un-
| carpeted wooden stairway. There was
dark room with an open door imme.
| diately in front Of me, and another at
the farther end Of the passage, from
beneath which glimmer of light is
sued, and it was from this room that
the sounds of laughter and mnsit
came.
| I turned to the left, and advancing
suddenly found myself face to fac'
with Philippe Lacroix.
He was seated at table in a room
writing, and I came right upon th'
door before I was aware of it. I saw
his thin face with the little upturne.
mustache and the cold sneer about th
mouth; and I think should have she,
him if he had looked up. But he ne
ther heard nor saw me but wrot
steadily, and crept back from tn
door.
