good Tom, to whom, for once, of
course, I could not confldo. Yet I hnd
a vngue purpose; or, at least, I had a
feeling that, If I wultcd un something
would develop In the direction of my
hopev. The doubloon still suggested
that It was the key to a door of fus
clnntlng mystery to which chance
might at nny moment direct me.
And why not admit It? apart from
my burled treasure, to the possible
discovery of which tho doubloon
Hecmed to point, I was possessed with
n growing desire for another glimpse
of thoso haunting eyes. They needed
not their association with tho mys
terious gold, they were magnetic
enough to draw uny mnn, with even
the rudiments of Imagination, along
the pu'lh of the unknown. Afl tho
paths out of the little settlement
were paths Into the unknown, und, day
nfter day, I followed one or another of
them oiit Into the wilderness, taking n
gun with me, us an ostensible excuse
for nny spying eye, and bringing bnck
with me occasional bag's of tho wild
pigeons which were plentiful on the
Island.
One day I hnd thus wandered unus
ually far nllcld, nnd at nightfall found
myself still several miles from homo
on u rocky path overhanging the sen.
There was no sign of habitation nny-J
where. It was n wild and lonely place,
and presently over Its saVago beauty
stole the glamor of the moon rising far
over tho sea. I sat down on a ledge
of the clllls and watched tho moon
light grow In Intensity as tho darkness
of tho woods deepened behind me. It
was a night full of witchcraft; a night
on which the stars, the moon, und the
sea together seemed hinting at some
wonderful thtng ubout to happen.
Then, ns If tho fairy night wcro
matching my thoughts -with a chal
lenge, what wns this bright wonder
suddenly present on one of the boul
ders far down beneath me? a tall
Hhape of witchcraft whiteness, stand
ing, full in tho moon, like a statue in
luminous nmrblo of somo goddess of
antiquity.
Sly eyes nnd my heart together told
mo It wns she; nid, as she hung poised
over the edge of the water in the at
titude of one nbout to dive, u turn of
her head gavo mo that longed-for
glimpse of thoso living eyes filled with
moonlight. She stood another mo
ment, still as the nlghtj In her loveli
ness; and the next she had dived di
rectly Into the pnlli of the moon. I
bow her u.vch mooulllled again, as she
camo to tho surface, and began to
swim not, as one might hnvo expect
ed, out from the land, but directly In
toward tho unseen huso of the cliffs.
The moon-path did loud to a golden
door In the rocks, I said to myself,
and she wns nbqut to enter It It was
a secret door known only to herself;
and then, for the llrst time that night,
I thought of that doubloon.
Perhaps If I had not thought of It I
should not have done whnt then I did.
There will, doubtless, bo thoso who
will censure me. If so, 1 nm afraid
they must. At all event", It was tho
thought of that doubloon that swayed
tho balance of my hesitation In taking
the moon-path In the track of thut
bright apparition.
I looked for "n way down to the edge
of the sea. It was not easy to find, but
nfter much perilous scrambling I nt
length found myself on the boulder
which had so lately been tho pedestal
of thut Radiance ;und. In another mo
ment, I hnd dived Into the moon-path
and wns swimming toward tho mys
terious golden door,
Before mo the rocks ojwned In a
deep narrow crevasse, a long rift, evi
dently slashing buck Into the cliff, be
neath the road on which 1 hud been
trending. I could see the moonlit
water vanishing Into a t-ort of gleam
ing luue between the vast overhang
ing walls.
Presently 1 felt my feet rest lightly
on ilrm sand, und, still shoulder deep
In tho water, 1 walked on nnothur yard
or two to bo brought to a sudden
stop. There slin was coming toward
me, breast high In that wattry tunnel I
The moon, continuing its serene uscoh
slon, lit her up with n budden benrn.
O! shape of bloom and glory!
For a moment we both stood looking
ut each other, as If transilxed. Then
t.he gave n frightened cry nud put her
hands up to her bosom ; us sho did bo
a stream of something bright like
gold pieces fell from her mouth, nnd
two like streams from her opened
hands. Theij, ns quick ns light, sho
hnd darted past mo nnd dived Into tho
moou-puth beyond. She must havo
swum under tho water a long way, for
when I biuv her durk head rlso ugnlu
In the glimmering path It was at n
distance of many yards.
I had no thought of following her,
but. stood In u dream among tho wa

Yes I I 'wns In love. Yet I hope, and
think, that the reader will not resent
this unexpected incursion lnlo the
realms of sentiment when ho consid
ers that my sudden attack was not,
llko most such sudden attacks, an in
terruption In the robuster course of
events, but, Instead, curiously In tho
direct lino of my purpose. Because
the eyes of an unknown girl hnd thus
suddenly enthralled me, I was not,
therefore, to lose sight of that purposa.
On tho contrary, they had suddenly
shone out on the pathway along which
I had been blindly groping. But for
tho uccldeut of being In the dirty little
store nt so psychologlcul n moment,
hearing that strangely fainlllar voice
und cntchlng sight of that mysterious
doubloon as well us thoso mysterious
eyes, I should huvo Bet sail that very
night and given up John P. Toblus'
second treasure In Anal disgust As It
was, 1 was now warmly on tho track
of some treasure whether his or not
with two bright eyes further to point
the way. Never surely did u man's
love and his purpose muko so practical
a combination.
When I reached my lodging at last
In the early morning following tliat
night of wonders my eyes nnd heart
wcro not so dazed with that vision In
the cave that I did not vividly recall
one Important detail of tho strange
picture those streams of gold that
had suddenly poured out of tho mouth
and hands of the lovely apparition.
Without doubting tho evidence of
my senses, I was forced to believe
thut, by the oddest piece of luck, I hud
stumbled upon tho hiding pluce of that
hoard of doubloons, on which my fair
unknown drew from time to time as
she would out of a bank. '
But who was she? and where was
her home? There had seemed no sign
of habitation near the wild place
where I had come upon her, though, of
course, a solitary house might easily
have escaped my notice hidden umong
all that foliage, particularly at night
fall. To be sure, I had but to Inquire of
tho storekeeper to learn all I wanted ;
but I wns averse from betraying my
Interest to him or to anyone In the
settlement for, after all, It was my
own affair, and hers. So I determined
to pursue my policy of watching and
wnltlng, letting a day or two elapse
before I uguln went out wandering
with my gun.
I left the craggy bluff facing tho
sea and plunged Into the woods. I
had no Idea how dark It was going to,
but, coming out of the sun, I was at
once bewildered by the deep und com
plicated gloom of massed branches
overhead, and tho denser darkness of
shrubs and vines so intricately Inter
woven as nlmost to make n solid wall

Into the
about one. Then the atmosphere was
so close und airless that a fetir of suf
focation combined at once with the
other fear of being swallowed up In all
this savago green life, without hope of
finding one's way out aguin Into the
sun. 1 fought my way In but a very
few yards' when both these fears
clutched hold of mo with n sudden hor
ror, and tho perspiration poured from
mo; I could no loncer dlstlnculsh be
tween tho way I hud como and nny
other part of the wood I Indeed, there
wns no wny nnywherol
I must havo battled through tho
veritable Inferno of vegetation for at
least an hour though It seemed a life
time. Clouds of partlculnrly unpleas
ant midges tilled my eyes, not to speak
or mosquitoes nnd :. peculiar kind of
persistent stinging fly was adding to
my miseries, when nt Inst, begrimed
und dripping with swent. I stumbled
out, wllh n cry of thankfuluess, on to
comparatively fresh air and some
thing like n broad uvenuo running
north nnd south through the wood. It
was Indeed densely overgrown, and
had evidently not been used for many
years. Still, It was comparatively
passable, and one could tit least see
the sky nnd take long breaths onco
more.
Still there yus no sign of n houso
nny whoje. Presently, however, ns I
stumbled ulong I noticed something
looming darkly through tho muttod
fore.-.t on my left that suggested walls.
Looking closer, I suw thut It was tho
ruin ol n small stone cottage, roofless,
nnd Indescribably swallowed up In tin
pitiless scrub. And then, near by, 1
descried nnother such ruin, and still
another all, as It were, sunk In the
terrible gloom of tho vegetation, ns
sometimes, at low tide, ono can dis
cern the walls of a ruined village at
the bottom of the sea.
Evidently I hod como upon a lorig
abandoncd settlement, und presently,
on some slightly higher ground to the
left, 1 thought I could make out the
half-submerged walls of a much more
ambitious edlllce. Looking closer, I
noted, with a thrill of surprise, the
beginning of a very narrow path, not
more than a foot i wide, leading up
through the scrub In Its direction.
Narrow as It was, It had clearly been
kept open by tho not-Infrequent pas
sage of feet. Willi a certuin eerie feel
ing, I edged my way into It, nud, nfter
following it for n hundred yards or so,
found myself close to tho rooiless ruin
of a spacious stone house with some
thing of the appearance of nn old Eng
lish manor house. Mullloned windows,
finely masoned, opened In tho shat
tered wall, and an elaborate stone
staircase, in the Interstices of which
stout shrubs were growing, gave, or
onco had given, nn entrance through
nn arched doorway nn entrance now
stoutly disputed by the glistening
trunk of a gum-eleral tree nnd endless
matted ropelike roots of giant vines
und creepers that writhed like serp
ents over the whole edifice. Forcing
my way up this stulrcase, I found my
self in a stone hall some sixty feet
long, at one end of which yawned a
huge Orepluce, Its Hue mounting up
through n finely carved chimney, still
standing firmly at the top of the
southern gable.
now hud this nlmost baronial mag
nificence come to be In this far-away
corner of a desert island? At first I
concluded thut here wns a relic of tho
brief colonial prosperity of the Ba
hamas, when Its cotton lords lived
llko princes, with a slave population
for rctulnars days when even tho
bootblacks in Nassau played pitch-and-toss
with gold pieces; but as I
considered further, It seemed to mo
that the style of the architecture nnd
tho nge of the building suggested un
earlier date. Could It be thnt this hnd
been tho homo of one of those early
eighteenth century pirates who took
pride in ilnuntlng the luxury and pomp
of princes, nnd who had perhnps mado
this his headquarters nnd stronghold
for the storage of his loot on the re
turn from his forays on tho Spanish
Main? This, as the more spirited con
jecture, I naturally preferred, and, in
default of exact Information, decided
to nccept.
The more I pondered upon this
fancy and remnrked the extent of tho
ruins Including several subsidiary
outhouses and noted, too, one or two
choked stone stnlrcnses that seemed
to descend Into the bowels of tho
earth, tho more plausible It seemed.
In one or two plnccs where I sus
pected underground cellars dungeons
for unhnppy captives belike, or strong
vaults for the storage of the treasure
I tested the floors by dropping heavy
stones, and they seemed unmistakably
to reverberate with a hollow rumbling
sound ; but I could find no present way
of getting down Into them. As I snld,
tho staircases that promised an en
trance Into them were choked with,
debris. But I promised myself to
come somo other day, with pick and
shovel, and make nn attempt at explor
ing them.
Meanwhile, nfter poking nbout In ns
much of the ruins as I could penetrate,
I stepped out through a gUp In one
of the walls and found myself again
on the path by which I had entered.
I noticed that It still ran on farther
north, ns having a destination beyond.
Sq leaving the haunted, ruins behind
I nubhed on and had cone but a short
distance when tho path began to de
scend slightly from the rldgo on which
the ruins stood; and there, in a broad
square hollow before me, was the wel
come living green of a nourishing plan
tntlon of coconut palms I It was evi
dently of considerable extent a quar
ter of a mile or so, I Judged and tho
palms wdre very thick nnd planted
close together. To my surprise, too, I
observed, us nt length the path brought
me to them after a sharp descent, that
they were fenced In by u high bam
boo stockade, for the most part In
good condition, but here and there
broken down with decay.
Through one of these gaps I pres
ently made my way nnd found myself
among the soaring columns of the
palms, ihung aloft with clusters of tho
great green nuts. Fnllen pnlm fronds
mnde a carpet for my feet very pleas
ant nfter the rough und tnngletl way I
hnd traveled, and now nnd ngaln ono
of tho coco nuts would fall down with
a thud amid tho green silence. One
of these, which narrowly missed my
head, suggested that hero I had tho
opportunity of quenching very ngree
nbly tho thirst of which I hnd become
suddenly nware. My clnspknlfo soon
mudo nn opening through the tough
shell, nnd, seated on the ground, I set
my mouth to It, and, raising the nut
above my head, allowed the "milk"
cool as spring water to gurgle dell
clously down my parched throat. When
at length I had drained It, and my
head once moro returned to !ta nutural
anglo, I was suddenly mnde aware that
my pouching had not goue unobserved.
