r ir THE SCHANTOIT TRIBUNE-MONDAY MORNING, MAY 24, 1897. Cfte Rome Reading Circle "Tfie rw cvrTF mspu et Copyright, 1897, by ' SYN'OrSIS. The qt'ory Is narrated by tho aulhoi. why, wUh his friend Crawford, Is seeking tht rulnod, city pf Aranapura, In south. castern.Indla, Tho object of the search Is eome. treasure, that the men bollevo lies hidden, In tho ancient hall of Buddhn, within tho ruined city. They have ob tained this knowledso from a. "document that a Krateful fakcer haB tflven to Craw ford. They Interpret the contents to mean that at full moon tho beams will fall upon tho spot In the hall whjre tbe treas ure is concealed. The men find the ruined city, but to locate tho hall among the mass of cnJmbllnft walls Is nmiurenlly a hopeless task. At least, so It seems to tho narrator as ho gazes upon tho shapeless mass that was onco a noble city. PAIIT II. I was In the very act of turning to Crawford with a rather disappointed laugh to say so, when my eye was ar rested by a phenomenon. The sun was going down, nnd nt the moment his level rny streamed In a dazzling river of flashing light through the narrow gorge In the hills. It blazed on the still turfuce of the lake; It ppread In waves of liquid gold over the desolate site of the city of Sondavnlluj It crowned with a perfect hale of glory the huge pre cipitous rock that rose darkly between me and tho western sky. My eye had rested almost unconsciously, on the citadel rock as I turned, nnd I uttered an exclamation of surprise. There, at a distance of perhaps a third of Its height from the sharply-defined sum mit, there glanced from the black wall of stone a succession of sparkling ar rows of light that darted through the long shadows cast by the rock across the plain, For a second or two I stared In wonder at the sight: then like a flash its meaning burst upon my mind. "Eureka!" I exclaimed, In a sudden turst of excitement. "Eureka!" "Why, what the mischief do you mean?" said Crawford, rather crossly, "what have you found now?" "The hall, man! Your black and ancient hall, as sure as I'm a living sinner!" I stretched out my hand as I Bpoke, and pointed to the rock. Craw ford's eyes followed the- direction, and he started. "Bless my soul!" he ejaculated, after he had stared at It llxedly for a mln uate. "I believe you're right." , We had both sprung to our feet, and for some minutes we stood without a word gazing at the phenomenon that ; had suggested so much to, us both? It could not have been more than five minutes at the most, yet it was long nough to exhaust the sight. Even as we looV.cd tho flashing points of light shifted, contracted, and suddenly went out I turned startled eyes on my com panion. What did It mean? "Oh, that's all right," he said, "It could onlv last for a minute or two while the sun was directly on the level, but it was as good as an hour. All we've got to do now Is to make the most of our luck, for upon my soul it was about the greatest streak of luck that ever I came across." We stood for some minutes gazing at the rock as If we expected to see the lights again, but of course none ap peared, And at last we sat down again and dlscuFsed our next proceedings. We were both persuaded now that we had solved the mystery of the hall, as it was evident that the setting sun had shone through the citadel rock from side o side, showing plainly that it was holjow, and had window openings looking both east and west. We were agreed that there must be some means of entrance . from below, though of course it might have been blocked up in the course of centuries, and all wo had to do was to find it. "Ticklish, isn't It?" I observed, when wo had arranged our programme to our mutual satisfaction. "Dovillsh!" replied Crawford, son tentiously; "but you don't expecc to "EUREKA!" I EXCLAIMED. pick up diamonds on the parade ground, You've got to risk something." It was clear that Crawford was right, and, now that I was fairly committed to it, the risk seemed rather to add to than .detract from tho interest of th adventure. There was no huiry, bo. cause, as Crawford pointed out, all we could hopo to do before midnight was to find our way to tho place, and that Unf -nri.ttn TTuniUwIth Rlmnelv Kills.

Luslf. f could scarcely take many hours to do. we had our evening meal, and, as wo did bo, watched tho gradually waning daylight as It dted away from the lake, and tho plain, and at last the sky, till the shadows stole over the scene In darker and yet darker tones. The moon rose, clear and liquid, from be hind the forest and flooded both sky WE FOUND THAT A NARROW PASSAGE WAS LEFT. and earth with silver light. We wait ed till she had risen some distance in the heaven, and both our attendants had gone to sleep before we stared. At last all was ready, and we set out. Neither Crawford nor I seemed dis posed for conversation as we proceeded on our adventure. There was some thing strangely mysterious In the busi ness, which, In spite of myself, op pressed me with a sense of foreboding, and tho effect was heightened and made more intense by the solemn still ness and beauty of the scene. Moon lightthe marvelous moonlight of the Innermost tropics steeped the scene In a ghostfV splendor. It lay en the sil ent lake, a burnished shield of silver; It rested on the soaring masses of the mountain range that towered up Into the violet blue of the sky; it brooded, soft and misty, over the silent ruins of the dead city Into which we -were making our way. There was some thing startling in the silence. A sound of any kind the rustling of a leaf, the note of a bird, even the cry of a beast of prey, would have seemed a relief in that impressive stillness. We followed the line of the great avenue which had been eo ''plainly marked out by the h'enps of crumbling ruin on either hand, leading, as we knew It did, directly to the great central mass of rock which now rose gray and ghostly before us. The distance from our camping place could hardly have exceeded two miles, and we met no obstacle in. the path. Our silent tread on the mossy turf disturbed no echoes among the shape less mounds of what had once been stone, and only the soft, weird whisper of the night breeze reached us as it Etolo through the ruins and barely stirred the leaves of the great trees that rose so mysteriously from un seen depths among the crumbling heaps. Wo made our way steadily onwards till at last the mass of rock rose frowning and perpendicular over head. It looked black and forbidding. Seen close at hand, even the moonlight failed to brighten It as it stood out. black, bare and threatening, against the sky. There were no ruins close to the rock, and In most places the level ground reached to Its very base. Here and there we came upon a pleco of shattered rock which seemed to have rallfin from the cliff and sunk deeply into the earth, and once or twice these splintered rocks appeared to have brought with them masses, of what looked like crumbling masonry. We searched in vain on the side we had reached for some sign of an en trance or passage Into the rock, and It was not till we had traced It round that side and more than half pf the other that Crawford, who had taken the lead, cume to halt in the dark shadow that stretched westward from the citadel. When I Joined him I found that he was standing at the foot of a sloping mass of rubbish and shattered masonry larger than any we had yet met with. This seemed piled up against the face of the cliff as though It had slid from the top. "I think there Is something here," Crawford said, straining his eyes to look upwards through the deep shadow. I followed his example, and it did seem to me, too,' that Just above tho heap, at whoso foot we were standing, there was something that looked like u darker hollow in the black face of 'tho beetling rock. "You've got the lantern," he added, In a half whisper, as if ho were afraid of waking an echo in the intense si lence. I produced the lantern and we light ed it. It was small, and, although easily carried, threw but a feeble light on our surroundings. By its light, however, we contrived to scramble up the rugged heap of masonry and rocks till wo reached the top. Our impres sion had been correct; there was or nt any rate there had been a doorway, At first I thought it was effectually barred by the fallen stone, but on ex aminer the place more carefully by tbe lantern's light we found that a narrow passage, which Indeed might more properly ho called a hole, was left be tween, the arched top of tho gateway and the maBS of rubbish which so nearly filled It up. The entrance looked dark and forbidding enough, but It was evident that It was tho only hope of ac complishing our object, and we did not hesitate. As tho bearer of the lantern, I took the lead, and slowly and with difficulty, by getting on all fours I managed to get through. Tho fallen mass sloped away on the Inner as It had done on the outer side, and after I had waited long enough to light Crawford on his way through the nar row entrance, I proceded to descend to the level of the ancient entrance, closely followed by my companion. I had nearly got to the bottom when a stone on which I had set my foot sud denly gave way and I rolled helplessly downwards. The lantern, although ex tinguished, was most fortunately found to be unbroken when Crawford scram bled down to where I lay, and after some trouble we managed to relight It. Till this had been accomplished I had been content to He still, feeling a little bruised and sore, and almost reluctant to make an exertion which might make me aware of some more serious In Jury than I was yet conscious of having received. When at last I roused myself and gained my feet I wns glad to find that except a slight sprain of my right angle I seemed little the worse. s ) "Now for It!" said Crawford, cheer fully, when he had passed his experi enced surgeon's hand over the place. "I'm afraid It may give you some trou ble by and by, but you'll be able to limp through this Job tonight, I fancy, and the sooner we find this blessed hall the better.'1 I found he was right. I was able to follow his lead, but It was slowly, and not without pain each time I rested any weight on the injured foot. When we had got clear of the loose stones and rubbish that had rolled farther into the passage, we found that the entrance was a wide one, wide enough for ten or twelve men to march through side by side, and that it stretched forward into 'what looked like an abyss of Impenetrable darkness. Our lantern glimmered feebly on the rocky floor, and shone faintly on the walls that extended upwards out of sight without showing any indication of a roof overhead. We went slowly and cautiously forward, for the place seemed well fitted for the lair of some beast of prey, but, except the faint echo of our own footsteps, there was not a sound of life. At last Crawford paused and held up the lantern. "I thought so," he said; "the steps at last!" Then we began to ascend the great, black staircase cut out of the solid rock, the surface smooth and pol ished, the edges clean-cut and sharp, ns if but yesterday from the hands of the workmen who had lived and died two thousand years ago. The steps seemed never ending to me as I labored after my companion. Upwards and up wards still; the same glistening steps; the same dull black walls; the same impenetrable darkness that closed above our heads it became like a nightmare to me, and it seemed as if it would never end. It ended at last, and it came like a surprise. "Thank goodness, that's all," said Crawford, as he stopped and held up the lantern. It glimmered like a rush light In a cathedral, but It showed us nothing. Beyond the radius of its puny light all was an abyss of the blackest darkness By going cautious ly round with the light we soon dis covered that we stood in a wide ante chamber which opened by a narrow doorway Into another. At the moment when Crawford advanced through this holding the lantern before him, a sud den gUBt of wind blew out the light and left us In darkness. But no! It took only a moment to convince me that my first impression, was wrong it was no longer dark. There was light a faint, gray, uncertain light, which seemed to steal through the darkness and rather to dilute its qual ity than absolutely to substitute any thing else in its place. From where I stood in the ante-chamber I could see plainly that it came from the inner chamber through the narrow doorway, and it was strong enough to enable mo to seo Crawford's figure as he paused at the entrance. "It's the hall," ho said, In a voice that was almost a whisper. "Come onl There's light enough In hero without the lantern." As he spoke he passed through the doorway and disappeared In the gray darkness, and I made haste to limp after him. PART III. In the course of many wanderings I had been in many strange places and seen not a few sights that were both curious and Impressive, but I cannot say that among them all my memory can single out ono In all respects so im pressive as this. As I stood wlth'ln the entrance and looked round, the words of tho Pall writing came back to my' memory so vividly that I seemed to hear them repeated, "the black and nnclent hall." It was a hall of vast size. The first impression it made on the senses was its blackness. On every sldo the blackness closed it in; tho floor, tho walls, or tljo ejjadows tha,t represented tho walls, th'e huge square plla'rs that stood In row alter row till they 'were lost in tho dim obscurity, the shadows overhead which seemed to represent tho roof; nil alike wcro black. Tho faint light scented to float nnd cling round the pillars, but. it nowhere called forth a single sparkla of light from the dull, dead surface. I hardly know how long wo Btood In silence, but at least It must have been for eeveral minutes before Crawford turned und grasping mo by the arm said in an eager whisper: "It's all right, lall; there's no mis take about the place. Sec that must be Buddha himself." He pointed, ns he spoke, down one of the long dim vistas between the black pillars, which had so far escuped my notice, and there faintly outlined against tho darkness, was something gray and gigantic but yet human. In shape. As he spoke he moved down tho hall towurds it, nnd, although, I confess with a creeping sensation in the region of my spine, I followed him. We must have walked at leaBt a hun dred yards down the black avenue of pillars before wo reached It, but when we did so there was no longer tho faintest doubt in my mind that our In formation had been correct, and that fortune had guided us to the spot indi cated by tlTe Pall writing. It was a huge figure which hud evidently been cut out of the solid black rock when tho temple hall was excavated. It was Feated on a great square block of stone, in the usual cress-legged attitude, and looking upwards one could see tho vast, calm, expressionless features, and higher still the point where the top of the head Joined to and supported the roof. Crawford, I could see, was examining the figure curefully on every side, but my ankle had grown painful, and I contented myself with resting against the pedestal und following his motions with my eye. At last he Join ed me. "Look here, Hall," he said, "I've looked everywhere but I can see no signs of any secret place for the treas ure, and what Is still more remarkable I don't see any possible way for moon light to come In when the moon's over head. The only-thing to be done now Is to wait and see what happens at the moment of full moon, and that will be at nineteen minutes past twelve. In the meantime I can see it will be neces sary to take Sent Into our confidence, and I think It will be almost necessary to fetch that little crowbar. You don't mind my leaving you alone here, do you, while I fetch Sent? I fancy there's Just about time to do it, and In case we're a few minutes late you can mark tho exact spot." "Yes," I said, a little wearily, "yet, I can do as much as that, no doubt, if anything happens to point it out." "Oh, come now," he replied with rather an anxious laugh, "what's the use of swallowing a cow and choking on the tail. I haven't a shadow of a doubt about it now, nnd I don't be lieve you -have either.. It's that con founded ankle of your's that spoke then." I felt that he was right, and I couldn't but feel that his proiiosarwas the best that could be made under the circum stances, as I could be of very little ac tive service either in securing or car rying off any treasure there might be concealed. I therefore agreed heartily to do my best to trace and indications there might be of the hiding place until Crawford returned with assist ance, and, having carefully lighted tho lantern to show him the way he started. I need hardly say that I should have preferred Crawford's share of the busi ness had I been in a condition to under take It, and It was with something very llko a shudder that I watched the light glimmering farther and farther away till at last it disappeared through the square opening of the doorway by which we had entered, leaving me alone In the desolate temple. For some sec onds I could catch the faint echo of my companion's footsteps as he descended the great staircase up which we had tolled, and then they died away leav ing a deathly stillness behind in which tho beating of my heart sounded like a drum. How long should I have to wait for his return? This was the first thought that filled my mind, though It IT WAS THE LIGHT SHINING was quickly followed by tho question: Should anything happen In his nbssnee? I was there to watch for tho sign that was to disclose the hiding-place of the treasure would It come? In any other place, at any other time, I should have laughed the very Idea to scorn but here? I looked around on every side, only to be met by tho long, straight shafts of the dense black pillars; far away on tho right I could trace the faint outline of one of tho rock-hewn windows through whjch the gray light nitered into tho black cavern in which I stood alone. I felt that I must pull myself togeth er to resist the strain on my nerves, and I decided that U.-was better, even I at tho cost of some pain, to move about than to remain at rest and become tho become tho victim gf a thousand fan cies. I began to walk, or rather to limp up and down, and tho motion seemed to restore me to my usual condition of mind. Haw long I limped up and down tlvaj Waek, colh)n,ade, (Peering down JiL x - hz S each vistn in the hopo of convincing myself that there was nothing to bo seen, straining my ears In tho vain hope of hearing tho sound of footsteps on the stairs, I cannot tell, for although I tried again nnd again to read the fig ures on tho dial plate of my watch I could never satisfy myself that I had succeeded. Had there been a hope of a seat anywhere I might have sought It, but there wns none, nnd Indeed I wns afraid to lose Bight of the gigantic figure which I felt instinctively to be conncoted with tho discovery I was waiting for. I was standing opposite tho figure now, and, as I peered upwards through the darkness at the face that held me with an almost hypnotic spell, some thing happened. I could not have said what it was that chained my attention and made the blood run coldly through my Hmbs, but there was something the face had changed. Its expression had chansxed, or seemed to change, a dozen times before, but I knew that this was different it had really changed this time. What was It? I gazed fixedly at the great, calm, features till suddenly It flashed upon me. It wns the eyes. Till that moment tho great orbs had looked out fixed, and rigid, with a dull stare into tho dim shadows that surrounded them, but now they woke to life a strange, pale face. I stared; I rubbed my eyes to mako sure that it was not another trick of the fancy only more vivid than any that had gone before, but when I looked ngaln the Impression had only grown stronger. From the centre of each eyeball a dim, ghostly ray of light was gleaming, and moment by moment It was growing brighter. It struck downward, and I could trace Its path through the gray shadows like the flight of a phosphorescent arrow. My eye followed the two slender lines as they fell, nnd I noticed that they In clined to one another till at last they Joined and ns a single ray of light set tled upon the right knee of the sitting figure. Upon that knee tho giant right hand of the image lay, not flat, but In an easy posture that brought the fore finger slightly over the thumb. It was here here, on the Inner edge of tno thtimb, that the united ray of sliver moonlight fell. Hitherto I had followed it mechan ically, curiously nnd wonderlngly, but without connecting it lntelllg Mly with anything else; but now It appealed to my mind like a revelation, and the words of the Pnll writing seemed to throb In my ear once more. "The glance of the Queen of Night shall rest upon the secret place where He the hid den .treasures of the beloved one.' It was here, then, here that the treas ure lay! I forgot my weariness; I ceased for tho moment to feel the pain of my disabled ankle; I sprang for ward and laid my hand on the spot where the silver nrrow of the moon light fell. As I stood my shoulder was Just on the level of the massive knee of .the great figure on which the hand rested. Following the glance of the moon I laid my hand on the giant thumb. It yielded to the pressure, and, moving aside as if on a pivot, Bhowed that the hand wns hollow, al ns the pale shaft of the moon light fell upon its contents there was flashed back a reflection of many-colored lights. It was tho treasure! For a moment I paused and almost gasped for breath. My eyes seemed dazzled by the sight, and the surprise of the sudden discovery was llko a shock to my nerves. Before I had tlmo to recover, or Indeed to think; before I could mako up my mind to stretch out my hand and touch the glittering prize, something like a gray shadow flitted past me. At the same moment there was a strange, grasping, guttural sound close to my ear, and I felt my throat grasped by long, bony Angers, that felt llko those of a skele ton, and sent a thrill of superstitious horror tingling through every nerve In my body. I staggered and grasped wildly at my assailant, but the sud denness of the attack and the smooth ness of the rock floor on which I stood caused me to lose my balance. My desperate clutch closed upon some thing, Indeed, but It felt unsubstantial and yielded no support and then I fell. IN MY EYES THAT ROUSED ME. It was the light of Crawford's lantern shining In mv eyes that roused me to consciousness. A voice, which I recog nized' as that of Sent, exclaimed: "Al lah be praised, he yet lives!" I sat up with dlfllculty and stared stupidly around for some seconds before I could remember anything of what had oc curredthen It came to me suddenly. "It's gone, Crawford," I exclaimed, with a gasp. "The devil It 1st But how do you know? Who's got It?" Crawford re plied, eagerly. I held out my right hand, In which there remained a torn fragment of dirty yellow cloth. "I don't know," I said, "but I fancy this must be a piece of what he had on." Crawford examined It closely for a few moments. "Well," he said, at last. In a tono of deep disgust, "It might have been a piece of my old fakeer's body cloth only that was burled with hlm-rlt'a dirty enough, anyhovr.'l.-j Wc examined the Image of Buddha by the aid of the lantern and found the secret place open as I had left It, but, with the exception of one ruby of great size, entirely empty. Weexnmlned tho floor for some traces of my mysterious assailant, but, n might have been, ex pected, without success. A few yards nway, however, at the fpot of one of tho black pillars, I saw something glit ter in the lamplight. I stooped and picked It up. It was a very largo un cut emerald I have it still all that re mains to me of the sparkling heap of gemi so strangely revealed when the Queen of Night disclosed the long-kept secret of Buddhu.
