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.

(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

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

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

The head of the house had told the
new clerk to try his hand at window
dressing.
"I want you to mako every woman
on tho street look at that window,". he j
said.
The clerk went at it. lid made a
curtain of solid black velvet and hung
it cloj inside the plate glass.
"What on earth are you doing?"
asked the senior member.
"Making a mirror of the window,"
said the clerk. "If tho women won't
look at that they won't look at any
thing." Tho clerk is a' member of the firm
