i THE RCKANTON TlilKUNE-WEDN ESDAY JIOIIXLW, - XOVKMJJJiU H, I8)i. wife! Mil 111 (These short serial Htorio are copyrifrhteil by Bachellcr, Johnson & Bach eller, and are printed InTlieTrlbiine by special arranKomont, simultaneous with their appearance in the leading daily Journals of the largo cities). j ' Had we waited patiently in the eliam ter it would no doubt have been pos sible to make our way out in the usua jjnanner, but it waa too late to think oi I that now. There was no courso open , but to go on, so 1 said nothing about lour" terrible mistake to my wife, wlir ;had not noticed the noise, being in 'front and absorbed by the spectacle be fore her. i As regards tho modus operandi of the , wondrous mechanism by means oi (Which tho passaffo was opened and dosed, I can only offer my opinion, ur rived at after much subsequent rellec tlon on the subject. In some incom prehensible way tho moon's rays, in tensified or otherwise affected by the lenses, are ably to act on some hidden jmachinery probably hydraulic tc jKUch an extent that the huge block ol ptono is wont to fall and rise periodi cally at certain seasons, dependent on jtlie lunar phases. Of courso this is mero surmise, but it seems to be the simplest way of accounting for the phenomena wo witnessed. I am thor oughly convinced in my own mind that it was the lens-frame that governed ruEin k;e3 nsED rros rs wrra the movement of the gigantic opercu lum, and I deeply regret that while w. (WCrn prrLwlinfr nr rvnll.... T AiA - .mi it.iw, 1 OLI 11U (Observe, tho construction of the wall more attentively, especially at tin lower end, and also aloncr the whol. extent. I said just, now that mv wifa was pn tranced at tho spectacle that met hei view on emerging from behind the lens Irame. It was indeed no wonder tha- this should be so; and when I followed lier, after a few moments. I too. wnt equally stricken with amazement. A vast, lofty hall, decorated in a style and with a dcarco of richness snrnasa pig anything cither of us had over seen. -appeared Detoro ur,; everything it con taincd being clearly visible in tho bril liant yet soft toned light. It was oc rtagonal in shape, with n curtained re' cess in one of the sides; the other sever heing thieklv covered with Rcn1iitiii-wl ijfigures similar to tho temnln r.nrprinfTS iof upper Egypt, save that the coloring iwas superb, and as bright as the day il waa first laid on. Interspersed in all directions were glittering trophies com jposed apparently of jewels and pre; cious stones, whilo in niches and on pedestals were statues exceeding life ize, and cither mado of solid gold and nilver, or else thickly covered with lay-' jcrs of the precious metals. To give an iUdequate idea of the majestic apart ment, and all that it contained, would Ireqniro a volume; it is impossible to dc inoro thnn iudicate in a fragmentary manner 3omo few special points that a .hurried examination enabled us to no tice. 1 -11181115 to our feet we gazed around in (wonder, not unmixed with awe, and (then Blowly advanced in the direction iof the recess, pausing at every stop to fcontcmplate the astonishing objects that were to be seen on all sides. The hall seemed tenantless, but when we had crossed about one-third of tho floor the curtains concealing the recess dhook as though stirred by some ttn tieen hand (or by a breoze) that was to us imperceptible. Tho drapery; which recalled Zanzibar matting as regards colors and texture, then" became sep arated down the center, each half be jilg drawn upwards as In a theater. , Inside. tho, recess thus disclosed, and hi most filling it, was a dais surmounted. by V canopy, which shaded a rnagniH Jce&i coucij constructed .of .BoMshed DAVID WErrjiLEK. granite, with elaborately sculptured sides, and spread over the surface of the couch were numerous cushions and variegated mats, somewhat resembling the curtains, but thicker in the woof. .Keposing on this regal bier were two human .forms, sido by side, in a semi recumlient attitude. Both were clad in sumptuous robes, and on the head of each was an elaborate structure, partly crown and partly tiara. The form on the right hand was that of an old man, with very prominent features and il small pointed beard almost snow-white in color, but his partner was a lovely feninlo in the bloom of youth. Tho cye9 of the stately pair were wide open and seemed to be fixed on U3 with a stern, inquiring ex pression, while the flesh tints and gen eral uppear.mee were so absolutely lifelike that wo both sank down on our knees, terrified at the imperial ns pect of the mysterious monarch and his bride. It was not for some considerable time that ive mustered up enough courage to approach the dais, but seeing that tKa iiinirA rflmnineil Tierfnotlv motion- a steux, ixquinixu loor. ft'ss we at length ventured lr iTo3j. On somewhat' closer inspection It turned out that our involuntary hom uge to royalty hail in reality been paid to the king of terrors. The two sbnpes on the couch were mummies, but the embalming process had been so per fectly and artistically carried out that even tho lapse of centuries had not given riso to the slightest sign cf de cay. Tho glittering eyes that' h?.d caused us so much fear turned out to be simply a skillful combination of dia monds and crystal, fitted with minute springs that allowed of an intinitcssimal amount of movement in the orbs under the influence of tho faintest current of air. ; In this', way the lifeless effect of perfect immobility was obviated, and it was only natural that at first we 'should have thought ourselves in tho presence of living beings. The left hand of the youthful bride of countless summers was hanging near the edge of the couch, and a ring which no doubt had slipped off one of her fingers, was lying on the floor nt some distance from tho dais. Happen ing to catch, sight of this ancient gem close to my feet 1 half mechunically picked it up and it in my pocket. It was a scarah set in gold, and on tho inner surface there was a very clearly cut cartoueh. Ilaving by this time almost got over our' supernatural alarm wo were nat urally anxious to examine the royal mummies more accurately, and for this purpose proceeded to ascend tho two or three steps which, I should have said before, separated tho recess from the remainder of the hall. These steps were wide and shallow, but otherwise not remarkable. Hand in hand we ad-; vanccd, when all at once dais and canopy, marble couch and mummies' seemed to fly up into the air, and be-, fore we could realize what had hap-, pened we found ourselves sliding down an inclined plane with frightful ra pidity, and in durkness as complete as that we had experienced during our imprisonment in tho chamber. Tho revolving stono on which wo simul taneously stepped simply swung back into position, while wiih ever-increasing momentum w shot down, down, apparently into thd very bowels of the earth. I ' . How long the avjful slide continued neither oi us was eler able to say. The Pi l1 1 1 if suddenness of the occurrence quite startled us out of our wits, though like drowning people wo still- retained our mutuul -clasp. At last the rate of progress began to slacken sensibly; had the initiul velocity been main tained, wo should Inevitably have been dashed to pieces at tho bottom. For tunately, however, the speed became gradually less and less as the ncutoness of the declivity diminished, till fluully it dwindled down to not more than a few miles an hour. Then suddenly my foot struck against something which seemed to give way before the impact, and tho nest moment we were lying, comparatively uninjured, but absolutely breathless, on ft heap of beautifully soft sand under the star-lit sky. As mav bo supposed, a. long time elapsed before we came to ourselves ! after this last fearful experience. ! What wo had gone through before was ' and receiving the most grat- bad enough, but nothing could stand,:.. . i. r 1 1 or even approach, the awful sensation Uying results, 1 aiU glad tO of falling through darkness, in momen- j tjs(;fy u favor of tnrr nvnoetMinn rf linlniT dr;trmiil in ' some terrible manner. When we were once more sufficiently collected to look about us with some thing like eomposuro I found that wo had emerged In tho temple of the Sphinx. It was almost inconceivable that we could have come all that dis tance underground, but the incontest able fact remained that we had done so. The great block of stone which yielded so readily to my foot had fallen back into its original position, and was indistinguishable from the rest. It was impossible, therefore, to tell which one it was, though I tried for some j time to identify it. j Thus ended this most extraordinary adventure. Sometimes it seems to nie like a dream, and tho few people to whom we have related it have invari-1 ably been politely incredulous. The queen's ring however remains. It is unquestionably a genuine relic of the ancient times, and experts all unite in assigning to it an age that is aluiost fabulous. Took the Libert)-. On one occasion a decision which Maine made as speaker of the house grcitly enraged a new member, who waited on Pennsylvania avenue after the house adjourned, with some friends, declaring that he would ''have it out or fijrht." "You can't," said one of his friends; "nothing you can say will get the better of Maine's good humor and j politeness." "c'll see!" said the en raged man, as he caught sight of the stately fignro of the speaker coming slowly toward him. IJe stepped for ward quickly and stood across his path. "Mr. Maine'," he said loudly, "I don't know you. I am no acquaintance of yours. But I take the liberty of telling you, sir. that you are n fool and a jack ass!" "Indeed!" said Blaine mildly; "now I wonder," regarding him thoughtfully, "what kind of a liberty you would have taken if I had been one of your intimate friends?" and, bowing courteously, he passed ou, while this companions of the congressman burst into a shout of laughter. Detroit Free I'resi. Narrow Escape, Mr. Wilson had read so much about the danger of a certain much-talked-ttbout disease that he had done hi3 best to mako Mrs. Wilson and their little daughter Maud chew their grapes and eject the seeds, instead of swallowing them according to the usual custom. Maud found the new method little to her taste, and her father had frequent occasion to reprove her for not mind ing hU instructions. Ono day the little girl was under the weather, and her mother thought it necessary to admin ister a dose of medicine, in the shape of two small pellets. These, after the manner of thoughtful parents, she con ccnled in a spoonful of lmirmulade, which she then offered, to the unsus picious paticut. A moment later she was' startled to hear Maud exclaim: "Here, mamma, here ara tho seeds. Wasn't- it lucky? I cntne awful near swallowing them." Youth's Compan ion, An Attraotlvo Window.
