But for thee nlna, Sa'pona, how scared I've been I And they called theo queen, thou who art our ftueen Indeed, beautiful, bravo one! But thou shouldst not do this not for so ugly a penor my beautiful nlna '." TVhen the great door cloFed and the noise from the peons growing fainter In the dis tance, the stern dignity of the Indian girl vanished before the slmplo talk of her old nurse. Queen of the Indians, as tho neons called her, this girl might be although why they called her bo they would llnd It difficult t0 ten uut for tho faithful creature, with her eager caresses and affectionate words, roy alty, real or Imaginary, scarcely counted, "There you are, foolish Fellclta always scared at something! Danger? What dan ger Only a greeting from those who are as fond of me as thou art. Now, to thy work. I must speak with this troublesome Yankee. Many a day It Is since I have seen him here. And then Fellclta. I am dying of hunger." Shaking her head at her mistress' lack of caution the old nurse hobbled down the gloomy corridor and into the sunny patio, fracrant'with Jasmine and sweet rose, where two Indian girls, seated upon the flags sur rounding the opening of a centra! cistern, were crushing corn In the primitive stone hand mills of their race. Kesumlng something of her statellness of mien the youthful ' "Itelna de los Indlos" turned to the right along a passageway lead ins; off from the main corridor Into the sala, or principal living room of the house. This was more scantily furnished than such apart ments usually are in Bogota. All that It had was of the plainest half a dozen Cheap rocking chairs, a straight-backed cane settee, a tall plerglass, ornamented at the top and sides iwlth meaningless gilt stucco work, and a dark walnut cabinet, carved In elaborate hunting design, with massive spiral pillars i" nortlng the heavily paneled sldea and front the only object In the room giving evi dence either of taste or wealth, liven the tiled floors were bare, save for a few well worn petates (Indian mats), which failed to iDPly that feeling of comfort provided In this cUllly climate by the thick woolen rugs u,id carpets generally In use. waiii) --- "j " w" ""b ifiKee whom she .had rescued, frapi tne. embojadores, confronted. by.Wn ravMMant-j.jia had BROTHERS of this oung girl his manner lacked that air of confldciicr he had so readily assumed In the face of danger. Ho whs HI at ease; his glanco shifted from one objoct to another In the room ; his sombrero was tightly clenched In his hand; he avoided the hteady gaze of his rescuer. Yet tliero was in his attltudo toward her an Indefinable homage, dye, per haps, to the queenly rank that others ac corded her, or else to tho rare, feminine love Ureas, the subtle power of which few could cFoapo. "Senorita, you have ilono mo a great sciv Ice," he said, "I was on in way to see you when I had that brush with tho peons. Thai is my excuse fi.T taking refuge in your house and eposlng you to danger. "Will ou foi give me? Will you " "Ah, my good Don ltaoul'" she interrupted. "What' questions! And from you ! Of course, 'f ' was ot bcrvico to jou Just now, 1 am glad E-7 "It is good to hear you say that, Ponotita," lie replied with evident tellef. "I na afraid things might bo different between it". You sop, ou disappeared so completely. You have not been In Bogota for mcr.ths, for years, Senorita. And then, today at last I heard of your arrival. I wanted to seo you. I have not forgotten you In all this long time, you may be sure. SaJIpona!" A faint flush overspread the girl's delicate features; a strange Jook kindled within her dark eyes. "It Is well, Don Ilaoul," she said In a low voice. "And here you are, still tbo Queen beauti ful, mysterious I" he exclaimed. "You know I am not a queen," bhe mur mured. "Why, even nrw they called you so. Those Jackals felt your power Just as I do, beau tiful .SaJIpona !" "Knougli. Keuor! Tltles and flatteries I neither cato for nor deserve are a mockery In in. on houe " "Tho title is jouts by tradition, It not bj right. As for flatteries " "Wo 0 not' lie by traditions," Mic iMtei rupted "To me, at least, you ate La Tteliia lie los Indlos " "Ah, well, Senor," she said with a low laugh; "eveiy queen, I fancy, should h.uc at least one subject. And now supposing that I am this queen jou talk of what is it jou want of me?" "We always used to be friends. SaJIpona. Can wo not be friends still?" "There's another Htrange question ! IIuC surely you did not com here to ask me that7 There is something else, Don ltaoul," she added, regarding him Intently. "It Is that, first of all. And then I had it In mind to tell you thai" my friend is re turning to Bogota David Meudon." "David Meudon," ehe repeated, as if pon dering tho name, looking steadily at ltaoul tho while, "But then what Is that to me, Senor?" she asked. "You remember him?" "Yes, of course I remember him. IIo has been away a long linie, hasn't he?" Then, after a pause, "W.hy does he come back'" "To solve a mistery so he writes me." " niyetcry?" "Ho talis it a mystery." laughed the other. "You nee, when we were living hero together he disappeared for tlireo months. -We thought he had been killed by a dynamite explosion. Surely, you have heard of It, Senorita?" "Yes I think every one has heard of it And ihen, at the time, there were rumors l'or Instance, I heard I heard who exploded the dynamite." "Sure enough, there were all kinds of tu mors. Hut, of course, tho whole thing was an accident, n horrible accident, that nearly cost David his life. IIo didn't heed the sig nal In time or something went wrong the signal or tho dynamite. Anyway, lr wasn t seen or heard of again for thrco months. "We all thought he must have been blown to bits. Then u curious thing happened. One morning I found him In my hons in a bort of trance." "Well?" "When he came out of the frame he de clared he could remember nothing of what he had been through. Those threo months were a blank In his memory." ' "And then ?" "He left Bogota, declaring he would never como back, That was. Just three years ago " "But" "Tea, now he Is coming back with some friends to solve this mystery, so he says." "What mystery, Senor?" 'Why," replied Raoul slowly, looking at her Intently, "the mystery of those three months when ha was supposed to have been In a trance." "What la a trance, Don Raoul?" asked the girl Innocently, Ilaoul laughed. "Ah, that would be hard to explain to a queen of the Indians," he. said, "A trance is net exactly a sleep, for a man may tall: and travel and do things. Just like other men, when he's In a trance. But iw hen he Is him. self again, he remembers nothing of all that happened when he was In tlte trancc." Then you think he was In a trance dur lng those three months when he disappeared frc-m Bogota?" res." , "And that he has forgotten all that hap. pened to.hlmjn that timar ' "Could he ever remember?" "There Is only one May In vthlch he could." "How Is that?" "If he could return to the same scenes and conditions through which he passed dur ing those threo months," "Hut for that ott would haie to know, of ctilree, what those scenes and conditions were?" "ExRclly, Senorita " 'ilcally. It Is all very Interesting," she said dreamily. "I have heard something llko It In fairy tales, I think; but not in real life. And now why do jou tell nil this to me. Senor? ' sho assed, as If struck by a novel Idea. "Ah, SaJIpona," he replied with a smile. I havo told ou merely In nnswer to jemr own questions. You have shown that for toma reason or other you are Interested. ' "Interested? Why, ot course 1 am Inter ested If for no other reason, simply be cause you are. This David Meudon. you say, left Bogota threo years ago? Slrango that he should leave so suddenly and with his work In this cciintry unfinished!" 'Ican't tell how much jou know of David," ho said musingly "Hut there Is every rea son why jou, more than anj' one else, bliould be Interested In tho man who attempts to solve tho secret of Guatavlta SaJIpona." There was no mistaking the emphasis placed on tho gili's name; nor was there anv disguising tho effect Its peculiar pronuncia tion had upon her. SaJIpona looked at ltaoul In alarm, than turned from him In manifest Lonfuslcm. Presently she gave a low laugh and her eyes sought his again. 'Ah, jou Yankees arc strange people,'' ehe said. "Some, say j-ou are only monemakers. But It appears you are more than that; for j'ou listen to foolish legends, like the rest of us and j'ou believe them." 'Yes, I believe this one, SaJIpona." "Does the man who ko btrangely lost hl memory by j'our dj'tiamlte explosion believe this one?" bhe asked, laughing. "I don't know. Perhaps ho never heard IU" "Well, it's very interesting, anjway I mean, about the trance and the dynamite. I want to hear tho end ot it. You will surelj " romo again, won't j-ou? And tell tne when jour friend arrives In Bogota? she added, giving him her hand. "You arc ever the queen; j-ou dismiss me from jour presence," ho complained, taking her hand, nevertheless, and kissing it. "Tho streets are safe tot you now. Penot," she said. "Thanks to you. La lleina '" "Ah, I would do much more for j'ou than that, as jou know, Don Ilaoul!" she ex claimed, an arch smllo giving to her beauti ful features a rare flash of plquancj-. "And now adols, Senor!" "Surely not 'adols,' but until the next time, Sajibona," he replied, as lie bowed himself from the snla. rtaoul's belief In the legend involved (? SaJipona's namo marked a radical change which ho had undeigotio since ho arrived In P.ogota. To his keen, logical mind the pro posal to enlist In a quest for the long-lost El Dorado seemed, at first, far too quKotlc to he ttilcen Reriously. But lie humored tho Idea, originating in David's fondness for studies touching tho bordet lands of romance, In the hope that he would divert a puiely fanciful project Into more profitable chan nels. Later on, however, he was himself caught by tho practical possibilities lurking in the old Chlbcha legend. Hence, it fol lowed 'that while David was enjoying the pic turesque llfo of the. llttlo mountain capital. Ilaoul was delving in musty records, running down old traditions and studying the topog 'raphy tableland with a degree of patience as tu details that tho subject had rarely re ceived. I'or days at a time ho but rowed In the crumbling archives of the Museo Naclonal, an unpretentious little edifice not far fiom tho palaco of San Carlos, In which weto stored, pell-mell, practically every evidence that remained of Colombia's prehistoric clvi ll7atlon. Here, with only the gray, shriv eled mummies of two ancient kings of the Chibchan to watch him, he had reconstructed. hs best ho could, the past of this vanished raco of people, had convinced hlmsflf of their v ealth, scarcely any of which had fallon into tho hands of tho Spanish, and had laid his plans for discovering a treasuro which had balked cverj explorer beforo him. Combined with theso studies In tho Na tional Museum and in tho vicinity of Lake Guatavlta, Ilaoul had busied himself with the peons of the neighborhood, From theso ptlml tlvc people he learned enough to corroborate the main features In the Chlbcha tradition as handed down by Castellanos, Pedro Si mon, Piedrahlta and other chroniclers of the Spanish Conquest. In addition, he unearthed tho curious legend that tho Sacred Lake would never yield up )tB treasure except to one' in whoso veins flowed the blood of tlu Chlbcha Kings. ThiR bit of prophetic ro mance had come, It was said, from father to son through tho four centuries following the martyrdom of the last of the zlpas. Ho was told, also and It added lo the fantastic character of the prophecy that n secret, l.nonn only to the zlpas and theli direct descendants, attached to Lake Guata vlta, and that bj means of this secret 'the treasure hidden beneath its waters would be discovered ltaoul at Hist paid little heed to this pari of the legend It had too strong a flavor of Jatter-daj lomance to go for more than a recent addition to the main tory of the wealth of the Chlbcha kings and tlu-ir pe culiar religious customs. The persistence of tho idea, however, the belief In its truth on the part of those repeating it, gradually excited his Interest and led him Into all kinds of theories as to the existence and recover ot tho Ouatavita treasure. That so fanciful a legend could have won even tho partial belief of so Ingrained u skeptic as Ilaoul Sterns at first ubsurd on the face of It. BUft"most of us can recall Instances enough of similar lupses from tho hypercritical to the oversuperstltlous to make this ono not altogether incredible. As often happens also in such cases as with those otherwise reasonable persons who be lieve In fortune-telling, omens, apparitions, etc. this bit of superstition, having once lodged itself in Itaoul's mind, increased in Importance, opening up nn absorbing Held for his love ot psj-chologlcal novelties, until it finally became a monomania, an obsession, as tho scientists call it. These ancient zlpas, he argued, were tho chieftains of a superior raco of people In the annual tribute from the tojal treasurj to the national god, who was supposed to live at the bottom of I-ake Ouatavita, thej catered to the credulity of their subjects while, in reality, laughing In their sleeves at them, jo to speak, all tho time. Mm ot their Intelligence were not apt literally to throw awaj' wealth thej had themselves amassed, and which they must consider as belonging to them and to their descendants But as thej' apparentlj' did throw it away, it was more than likely that thej used some kind of hocus-pocus, known onlj to them selves, by means of which the god Chlb chachum In whoso existence they did not believe was cheated of his annual trlLute How they practiced this diceptluii they must surely have told their children. Tho coming of the Spaniards, however, and J ho overthrow of the ancient dynastj. had raado of the whole affair a greater secret 'than ever. It would be handed down from one generation to another so long as there were descendants of the ulpas; but theso survivors Of the royal line would find It Increasingly difficult, owing to the presence of tho Span lards, to take the steps needed to tecover their anccsttal treabure. There was some plausibility in Itaoul's reasoning enough, perhaps, to excite the romancer's Interest but scarcely that of the practical man of affairs to whom are broach ed the detalld of a mining venture. Convic tion grew, however, with Raoul, whose In vestigations were confined thenceforward less to tho archeologlcal aspects of the prob lem and more to the task of discovering the whereabouts of the living descendants of the zlpas.

This astunisliing tequest made Peggy slf up straight in the ponii swing where she had been drowsing over a book. Before her, his cjes faitlj blazing with Indignation, stood Wily Belgium ' Wh.v. gracious me you know I can't to that, saied IVggv "It isn't iadjllkc to fight. ' "Yon II not have to do any of the real fight ing. 1 II lasso him with a rope and all jouil have to do will be to hang on to the tope while J thump him " This sounded real exciting to Peggj-. but sho wasn't going to tush blindly into a ton unless there was good rriison for It. "Who aro jou going to thrash and what's he done?'' sho asked "He Is rich old Jonathan Hardflst who owns that beautiful country placo JtiBt outsldo of town," replied Blllv-, doubling up his flst. "I'm going to thrush him hecauso ho refuses to help defend America by buying Liberty Bonds Ho sa.vs ho can make moro money using his spaio funds In his own private business." "Isn't that mean of him'' exclaimed Teg g. "I've heard rather sav that he owes ever.v cent he has to tin opportunities given him In this free country when he came from abroad jeais ago.

You know I am selling bonds because I'm a Belgian refugee. 1 told him how tho Huns robbed the Belgians, how thej' wronged them, how thej- killed them. And all ho answered was, 'We're safo enough over hero in America.' Ah If anj place In this world would be safe It we don't win this war " "Let's hurry'"' exclaimed Peggy. "But n.aybe we'd better take a big policeman along to help mako a good Job of it ' ".Huh ' The policeman might stop us We 11 not tnke anj chances that waj'" Htriy had a clothes line vvhlih ho intended to U"c as a lasso Ho tied a noose In this as h" and I'cggj hurried along toward Jonathan lliiidtlst's suburb'in estate "Wo will creep Into his garden and wait until ho comes along,' exclaimed Rlllj-. "He v.ulks u lot in his garden thinking up schetms to make monej'." As they entered the Hurdfist propcrtj. crawling through a hedge, Peggy gasped at Its benutj. There wero wldo stretches of lawn, charming flower gardens, thriving patches of vegetables, a great palace-Ilke hous, and various other buildings. Including stables, gatages, and servants' quarters. It seemed to her that Mr. Ilaidllsl ought to he vyHUng to lend America all he could to keep this Miff. Huddeinj- a voice stopped the children. "Ask him again It he will help America protect linn and all the nation." The command came from a statue standing on a high pedestal above them it's I.lberlj-," whispered Billy Belgium In an nvrdoloc.
