It was so still here-so still and
mysterious. The walled-in garden,
bathed in this dim, undulating light
with a perfume and warmth touch
ing over the flowers might have
been the remotest spot on the earth
and she is its only inhabitant.
Sandy felt like this-pushed away
alone and forgotten. The beat
ing Of her heart oppressed her with
faintness and heat.
For a long time she sat motion
less, staring at the shrubs and at a
bed of stocks that were so fragrant
and so delicately colored in pink and
lavender.
Suddenly she said quietly: I'll
have to go back-in the end I'll have
to go back" In all her life she had
never felt such utter, appalling quiet.
Back there in the room Murillo
was waiting. He had poured out
the drink. Then he had turned,
found her gone. He was probably
stepping out on the balcony-expect-
ing her at once. He would be a
little indignant. He had a right to
be. He was her husband.

Many additional hoursaof ceaseless toll

the fate of the ,4S fnoiners imprisoned

said it might take a week or ten days
whether the men are rescued alive de-

eighth level of the mine, 727 feet be-
low the surface where the men are i'm

Wives and children of the entombed
miners found note of hope in the
declaration of Dr. e. H. Madajesky,
physician and surgeon of the oliver,
company, who said he believed the men
could "live at least two weeks with
fresh air and water and without food"

One crew worked up the shaft from

bored a small 2l inch hole through
which it is hoped to pass food tablets.
