ullery of any on earth. Will o lliapoor

jf'Tlit. was so even up to the tlmo of
.lie breath. Rout of llie great mutiny. Wlieti
lui llrillsh troops were) fairly In line Id
ulkat the rebellion the watchword wis
'l'cvenige and loot." It was understood
ill lliroujjli the service that whatever a
obiter could lav bands on should become
His plunder. They UIdu'tN flabt any the
torse, for that, but they struck a double
dow at the Indians. The) crippled tliem
InaiH'iully as well as In a military. sense,
i ml 1 1 io people have never recovered ami
.ever caii. The amount, of loit taken on!
f India during the -n-bell on and direct)
flerward lias been estimated at (200,000,-
KK. As much nion. was contributed to the
ebel cause bv those who could give Twice
r three times as much was lost by flro and
word. England reasoned that an impov
rlslied people could not rebbt,and loot was
a part ot ber war policy.
Ten years after tho mutiny I was talklnc
itl) a uiHharnJah In the district of Punjab
bout the financial change In the condition
( the people, and be said:
Ai the outbreak of tho war our people
'Ulled or bid away at least a hundred mill
on dollars, I do not believe that a tenth
art of ibis great sum has yet been recov-
red. Those who secreted it wern dead
ictore the closo of the war and this ya.M
feature Is lost to us."
I did not tell him that I bad put In a jeai
and spci t ip vardiof $2,000 looklnj for
o.neof that treasure. Such 'was the fact,
i) w ever. A couple of Knijllslinien and
ii self, forming an acquaintance In Bum
jy nnd having a spirit of adventure, Dooled
nr cash and followed up several pointer
looking to buried treasure. We bad tint
:ar failed to make any discoveries, and om
Lirtnersbip had been dissolved, tho men re
t irnlne to Ilombay. I was in the Punjab
ti business connected with an Ainertcan
nouso and bad elver up the treasure busi
ess in utter disgust. Tho words of tin
uabarajah recalled all my enthusiasm, now
Ne, and within an hour after I left hlni 1
was determined to baye one more pull foi
uituneaudto go It alone. This detenu!
latlon was hastened and solidified by an-
i her incident. I was talking with the cap
tdn of a native Infantry regiment rczardin
..line ruins I bad encountered, and be said:
"You may baye left a dozen fortunes be
dnd you. At tho outbreak of ll.o war tin
vople concealed a great deal of their wealth
i caves nnd temples and a big share if i
i there yet. When on stumble on a pile
f ruins again give the place a uooitlookin;
over for loot."
' . ml lie natives have dona so a hundred
times over, I shoul 1 a . j ."
"lou are wioug, Where they knew of
ttvasure tbev may have unearthed it, but
ttiey light shy of rambline about bap bar
inl. l liey tidiuve an ruins io oa iiaumeu,
uid even If they aro not, you will ba certain
o find hyenas and serpents about."
"Have you ever beard of any treasuie
bilng recovered?'' I asked.
"Ualfadozen Instances, sir. Tl-e former
aptaln of this company went home with
i50.000 after doing two hours' work In the
uins of a templo near Uhaulpul."
The next day I started for Delhi, and
iiere a bit of good fortune awaited me. I
( in llh n German naturalist who wav
Halting a collectionfor a national museum,
.ml when hi: learned that I had bad con
kluiublo expei lenco In that lino be engaged
ue as assistant, lie bad two young men
vitb him, thus making a party of four, and
lieu we struck to the southwest of Delhi,
mending to take to the plains and jungle
etween that city and Jodpur, w had six
lailvo servants to carry the baggaae. Om
regress was slow ami easy, as It was bl
mention to make a very fu I collection
I' he country over which we passed bad no
inns of railroad then and was unknown to
tlilte men, ozcept as they hunted through
t. I hete were tigers ana oilier wuu game
m plenty and It seemad to bo the nurser
it all India for serpents. There were daf
then we could not march except as the
(round was beaten b the natives In our
front. There was a thin population, Willi
lie villages far apart, but as an offset the
latlyes were glad to render any aid, espe-
tally as soon as the learned that we did
not belone to the ruling race. 1 lie nate
hey felt for the English was something ter
I hie. This district had been almost depop
ilated and quite Impoverished by the war,
Pelty rulers had been deposed, taxes levied
.villi a heavy hand, and the natives worked
hemselvea up to the highest pitch of Indlg-
lation as they talked about it.
ily one object -vas burled treasure, and
vhile doing my duty by the professor I had
i o ) a tunlty lor extensive ramoies ou me
line of march, and I never failed to mak
nquliles of natives. This, as I afterward
learned, was the worst policy I could have
nlopted. Everv ruin was sacred to them,
rtverr wbito man was a detller. One mlgh
is well have asked them to forgive caste a
to have expected them to locate tho ruin
.f a rellulous temple for a white man. Y t
.ail been out about tw eatv days, and at tbt
line were In a permanent camp In a grove
if mango trees on the bank of a river.when

was ready to start. My excuse to the pro-
fessor was that I Intended to look for a cer-
tain bird which be bad been very anxious
to secure, and neveniotlced that I took my
heavy rifle Instead of atbotgtin. I also bad
a revolver nnd a knife and it was not more
than an hour after sunrise when I set out.
I followed tho creek down to wbero It
branched and there I struck the path that
tho native had described. As near as I
could determine It had been made by wild
animals coming and going between the
jungle and the creek, and at the first soft
spot I found the Imprint of a tiger's paws.
They were freb, too. and thcio was no
doubt of Ids being at home. As I proceeded
the path wound about in the most eccen
tric inanner,wblle the jungle grow thicker.
One cou'd not seo live feet In any drectlon
and the air was shut off.
The first bint that I bad reached the
ruins came In the shape of a block of dressed
stone lying right across tnv path. As I
stepped upon it a great. corhra wriggled
ilowly away from my feet, and I saw half
a dozen columns and lengths of wall ails
Ing among tha bushes. Fifteen years be
fore here bad been a dealing of perhaps
100 acres, with a village of several thous
and. people and a temple covering half nr
acre of ground. A man-eating tiger now
held sole possession, while the clearing bad
Lirown tip to jungle, and fire or explosion
had laid the great temple In ruins. Ten
leet ahead of me was a second block. I
passed to that, and then the path turned to
th? right and ran oyer a fallen wall. As I
reached this latter place and looked around
the tiger was stretched out on the earth
before me In a Hltlo open space. Ills legs
ere drawn up and ho was gasping, and,
though I was greatly startled for a mo
ment, I soon realized that ho was dying.
Indeed, be did not live two minutes after
1 set e es on him. As 1 afterward learned.
ihe natives bad poisoned the body of a man
lie had killed and only balf devoured, and
in fiiiUblnj his repast on human flesh
lie met his death, lie bad doubtless just
returned from satisfying Mils thirst at the
i-reek. It was well for me that I did not
co mo a few minutes earlier. I examined
the body tloscly ami found the tiger to be
old and mang, with many of bis teeth de
cayed. These were sure evidences that be
a as a "solitary," and had no mate. I need
therefore, have no fear that any other ani
mal more savage than a hyena was con
cealed In (ho vicinity.
The temple seemed to have been blow n
up with gunpowder. The walls were lorn
and rent ami knocked down In every direc
tion, and column and block and carved
work lay heaped together in strange con
fusion. I was bewildered to see the vege
tation growln up tnrouqu llie ruins to
profusely, and it.slood me In hand to move
carefully In such a snake infested spot. I
picked my way carefully to the centre of
tbo ruins and here I got a pretty good idea
of what the building had been. Here were
tho remains of a shrine or altar which'had
once been the cleanest or marble. It was
now stained and moss-grown and covered
with creepers. To look for burled treasure
in such a jungle was like looking for a
needle In a haystack; but I bad come for
that purpose and fett thai I must make
beginning. Flineing several stones Into
,he bushes to frighten lurking serpents
away, I put down my gun and began at the
creepers. In a little whilo I uncovered
what I said was ah' altar or shrine. It may
not have been. From the stone floor thcie
was a solid wall about four feet high, In
closing a space about six feet square. The
stone which rested on :bese four walls was
a foot thick, and carved around the edges,
I could not leil whether the walls Inclosed
a space or the whole cube was solid as a
support lor a pillar, but alter a close In
soection I discovered a spot where the end
of a level might be Inserted. I bad brought
a hatchet to help mo through the jungle,
With this I cut and trimmed a small tree,
and after much effort I loosened the cap
lone until 1 could see that tho wal s en
closed a space. On the surface of Ibis cap
sione I clearly toade out where the foot ol
a pillar, which probably helped to suppon
the roof bad rested. It lay near by, but
was broken by Us fall.
It was not more than eight o'clock in the
morning when I reached the rtilus, but ll
was two o'clock In tbo afternoon before I
had the heavy stone slewed around far
enough to meet Its equilibrium and force
it too fall off. I was In a tremble of ex -
eltement from the first, and as 1 slewed the
stona further and further around I felt
innr. and innrfl aan izulno of a larce cavity
beneath. I would not look in, however,
until the stone was clear off. When I did
bend ovci the wall and lcok down It nasi
iin.i wnnrtnn ehpit necunvinc nearlv all I
lUe spc. I sounded It with tbo pole and
I n save back such a solid echo that I saw
i mat l must pun me wan uu u iu t it.
I This took me an hour or more, as the plas-
iet was js hard as tbe stone, but at length
l was at the chest, 'it was cioseu out uoi
locked, and as I threw up the lid my eyes
beheld such a sight aa will seldom come to
man. That chest held a good solid ton of
loot, bow many tens "of thousands of dol
tars worth I cannot say. There were brace'
lets and rings, earrings, charms and bars

some tough substance, then supposed to be

vestigation disclosed a bullet embedded
within two Inches of the heart. The tree
at tills point was thirty-two inches In dia

sawed away, the remainder weighing al

HOW "WOUNDED MEN UEIIAVE.
If a soldier is wounded his behavior de
pends on the manner In which he is wounded
and whether be is of a nuiet or excitable
temper. Flesh wounds recelvol In action
are in many cases not felt at all until the
blood comes and the man gets exhausted
When the bone Is struck the shock Is great
and accompanied by acute p.Mn. I have
seen poor fellows struck In the breast by
mlnnie balls, remaining in action for min
utes, then sinking on their knees or falling
on their faces. Not all such severe wound'
are mortal. Sergeant Turo of the Twelfth
Missouri received a ball which went right
through both temples and he lived for years
afterward: a soldier was shot through the
left lung and lived for a whole year; Gen.
Shields was shot through tl.e breast during
the Mexican war and lived to an advanced
age. The worst bits are of course those by
canister and round shot and arc mostly
mortal, as they take off arms or legs, or the
head of a man, as was the case of a captain
of a southern ballerv at the battle of Pea
Itidge. Splinters of shells are less danger-
our, but when thrown Into groups and col
umns may disable many men. A single
shell from a Paixhan cun sent from Fort
Duncan, Maryland Heights, In my pres.
ence, to Bolivar Ilelghts against a group of
southern horsemen killed Gen. Lewis and
wounded or killed nineteen of bis compan
