mostly of untiled retires driving in cliariot.i.
On, which was exceedingly beautiful, re
presented a whole battle scene with a con
voy of captives being inarched oil in the dis
tance. "Well," said Sir Henry, after inspecting
this ancient work ot art, "it is very well to
call this Solomon's Koad, but my humble
opinion is that the Egyptians have been here
before Solomon's people ever set a foot on
it. If that isn't Egyptian handiwork, all 1
have to say Is it is very like it."
By midday we had advanced sufficiently
far down the mountain to reach the region
where wood was to be met with. First we
came to scattered bushes which grew more
and more frequent, till at last we found the
toad winding through a vast grove of silver
trees similar to those which are to be seen on
the slo;s of Table Mountain at Cajie Town.
1 had never before met with them in all my
wanderings, except at the Cape, anil their
appearance here astonished me greatly.
"Ah!" said (Jood, surveying these shining
leaved trees with evident enthusiasm, "liere
is lots of wood, let ns stop and cook some
dinner; I have- about digested that raw
meat."
Noltody objected to this, so leaving the
road we made our way to a stream which
was bab'-iiug away not lar oil, and soon had
a goodly tire of dry houghs blazing. Cutting
o!T some substantial hunks from the llesh of
the inco which we had brought with us, we
proceeded to toast them on the end of sharp
sticks.- as one sees the Kafirs do, and ate
them with re'ish. After tilling ourselves,
we lit our pipes and gave ourselves up to
enjoyment, which, compared to the hard
ships we had recently undergone, seemed
almost heavenly.
The brook, of winch tiie banks were
clothed with dense masses of a gigantic spe
cies of maiden-hair fern interspersed with
feathery tints of wild asparagus, babbled
away merrily at our side, the soft air mur
mured through tht leaves of the silver trees
doves cooed around, and brighfwinged birds
flashed like living gems from bough to
bough, ll was like 1'jradise.
The magic of the place, combined with the
overwhelming sense of dangers left behind,
and of the promised land reached at last,
seemed to charm us into silence. Sir Henry
and Uuihopa sat conversing iu a mixture of
broken English and Kitchin Zulu in a low
voice, but earnestly enough, and I lay, with
my eyes half shut, uim.ii that fragrant bed of
tern and watched them. Presently I missed
Hood, and looked to see what had become of
him. As 1 ilid so 1 oterved him sitting by
the bank of the stream, in which he had
leen bathing. He had nothing on but his
flannel shirt, and his natural habits of ex
treme neatness having reasserted themselves,
was actively employed in making a most
elaborate toilet, lie had washed his gutta
percha collar, thoroughly shaken out his
trousers, coat and waist-coat, and was now
folding them up neatiy till he was ready to
put them on, shaking his head sadly as he
did so over the numerous rents and tears in
them, which had naturally resulted from out
frightful journey. Then he took his boots,
scrubbed them with a handful of ferns, and
finally ruhhed t!ie:n over with a piece of fat,
which he hart carefully saved from the inco
meat, till they iooke I. comparatively shak
ing. rfpectabte. !l:;ving insprc-ted them
judiciously through his e.veglass, he put
them on and Ik; trail a Irjsli operation.

lated scrub of a ten days' lieard. "Surely.'
thought I. "he is -not going to try anc
.shave." But so it was. Taking the piece o'
fat with which he hud greased his boots, he
washed it carefully in the stream. Then
diving again 'into the bag he brought out a
little pocket nmr with a sru.ird to it, such as
are sold to people afraid of cutting them
selves, or to those about to tin le.rtake a sea
voyage. Then he - vig rusly scrubbed his
taee and chin with the f it and began. Bui
it was evidently a painful process for he
groaned very nncli over it. and I was con
vulsed with inward lang uor as I watched
him struggling witli that stubby lieard. 11
seemed so very odd that a man should takt
the trouble to shave himself with a piece ol
fat iu such a place and under such circum
stances. At last he stieceeded ill getting the
worst of the scrub oif the right side of hi;
face and chin, when suddenly 1. who was
watching, became aware of a flash of light
that passed Just by his head. ;
iooit sprang up with' a- profane "explana
tion (if it had not been a safety razor he
would certainly have cut his throat) and sc
did I. without the exclamation, and this was
what I saw. Standing there, not more than
twenty paces from where I was, and ten
from (iood, were a group of men. They
were very tall and copper-colored, and some
of them wore great plumes of black feathers
and short cloaks of leopard skins; thru was
all I noticed at the moment In front oi.
them stood a youth ot about seventeen, hi
baud still raised and his body bent for-'
ward in the attitude of a Grecian statue of x

bad been a weapon, anil he had thrown it

Umljop.t was like the faces of the men he
lore me, so was his great form. But 1 had
ii.it time to reflect on this coincidence.
Ve are strangers and co;no hi pence," I
answered, sjxaking very slow, so that he
might understand me, "and this man is our
servant."
"Y. lie," he answered; "no stringers can
cross the moiint iins where all tdinrs die.
Ihit what do your lies irjatter'. if ye are
vtr.ingers tiien ye ninst il.e, fur no strangers
may live in the land of the Kuktianas. it is
the king's law. l'ivj;ir;; then to die, oh
strangers !"
I was slightly staggered at this, more es
leei;illy as 1 saw the hands of some of the
pariv of men steal down to their sides,
where hung on each what looked to uie like
a large and heavy knife.
"What does that beggar say?" asked Good.
"He. savs we are going to be scragged," 1
answered grimly.
"Oli. Ijord," groaned Good; and, as it was
his way when perplexed, put his hands to
his false teeth, dragging the top set down
and allowing them tolly back to his jaw
with a snap. It was a most fortunate move,
for next second the dignilied crowd of Ku
ktianas gave a simultaneous yell of horror,
and boiled back some yards.
"What's up?" said 1.
"It's his teeth," whisered Sir Henry, ex
cited.'. "Ho moved them. Take tnem out,
Good, take them out!"
He obeyed, slipping the set into the sleeve
of his tl.mnel shirt.
In another s-cond curiosity hud overcome
fear, and the uieii advanced slowly. Appar
ently they had now forgotten their amiable
intentions of doing for us.
"How is it, oh strangers," asked the old
man solemnly, "that the teeth of the man"
(pointing to Good, who had nothing on but
a flannel shirt, and had only lulf finished
his shaving) "whose hotly is clothed, and
whose legs are bare, who grows hair on one
side of his sickly face and not on the other,
a.id who has one shining anil transparent
eye, and teeth that move of themselves, com
ing away from the jaws and returning of
their own will?"
"Open your mouth," I said to Good, who
promptly curled up his lips ami grinned at
the old gentleman like an angry dog, reveal
ing to their astonished gaze two thin lines ol
gum as utterly innocent of ivories as a new
born elephant His audience gasped.
"Where are his teeth?" they shouted;
"with our eves we saw thein."
Turning his head slowly and with a gest
ure of ineffable contempt, Good swept his
hand across his mouth. Then he grinned
again, and lo ! there were two cows of love
ly teeth.
The young man who had flung the knife
throw himself down on the grass and gave
vent to a prolonged howl of terror; and as
for the old gentleman his knees kntK-ked to
gether with fear.
, "I see that 3-e are spirits," he said, falter-
ingly; "did ever man born of woman have
hair on one side of his face and not on the
other, or a round and transparent eye, or
teeth which moved or melted away and
grew again? Pardon us, oh, iuy lords."
litre was luck, indeed, and, needless to
say. 1 jumped at the chance.
"It is granted," I siiI, with an imperial
sniiie. "Nay, ye shall know the truth. We
coiik' from another world, though we are
men such as e; we coine," I went on,
"from the biggest star that shines at night."
"On! oh!" gro'aiied the chorus of as
tonished aborigines
"Yes." 1 went on, ''we do, indewl ;" and
1 again smiled bcnignlv as 1 uttered that
T-uazing lie. "W'e come to stay with you a
.:;.Je while, and bless you b our sojourn.
Ye will see, oh. friends, that I have prepared
in. self by learning our language."
"It is so. it is so," said the chorus
"Only, my iord," put in the old gentleman,
"thou hast learned it very badly."
I cat an indignant glance at him and he
;uailed.
".Now, friends." I continued, "ye might
liiiiik that aiu-r so long a journey we should
find it iu our hearts to avenge such a recep
tion, nii.vhup to strike eold in death the ini-
oioiis hand tiiat that, lit short threw a
knife at the head of him whose teeih come
and go."
' .Spare him. my lords" "aid the old man
in snpplieation; "he is the king's son. and I
am his uncle. If anything befalls him his
blood will tx; required at my hands."
"Yes. that is certainlv so," put in the
young man with great emphasis.
"You may perhaps doubt our power to
avenge." I went on. heedless of this by
play. ' Slay, I will show you. Here, you
dog and s.ave" (addressing Umbopa in a
saviige tone), "give me the magic tube that
speaks;" and I tipped a wink toward my ex
press rille.
Umbo pa rose to the occasion, and with
something as nearly resembling a grin as 1
hail ever seen on his dignified face, handed
uie the rille.
"It is here, oh, lord of lords," he said,
with a deep obeisance.
Now, just before I asked for the rifle 1
had perceived a little klipspiinger antelope
standing on a mass of rock about seventy
yards away, and determined to risk a shot at
it
"Ye see that buck," 1 said, pointing the
animal out to the party before me. "Tell
me. ts it possible for a man, born of woman,
to kill it from here with a noise?"
"It is not possible, uiy lord," answered the
old man.
"Yet shall I kill it" said I, quietly.
The old man smiled. "That uiy lord can
not do," he said.
' 1 raised the rifle, and covered the buck. It
was a small animal, and one which one
might -well be excused for missing, but I
knew that it would nut do to nii.ss.
1 dr,ew a deep breath, and slowly pressed
on the trigger. The buck stood still as stone.
"Bang! Mud?" Tin: buck sprang into the
air and fell on the rock dead as adoor-uail.
A groan of terror burst from the group be
fore ns.
"1 ye want meat" I ' remarked, coolly,
"go fetch that buck."
The old man made a sign, and one of his
followers depurt.-d. ami presently returned
-bearing th;? klippringer. I noticed, with
satisfaction, that I had hit It fairly behind
the shoclder. They gathered round the pool
creature' body, gazing at Uie bullet-hole ir
constemation.
,c:Ye see,",I said tl do not speak empty

Iffycs have seen enough." These ire- wizards,
indeed. 1-ct us bring them to the king. Yet
if anr should wish a further roof let nim
bmiiu upun ui9 nc, Midi buo magic miwo
may speak with him."
There was a most general and hasty ex
pression of dissent
"Let not gtiod magic be wasted on our
poor bodies" aid one, "we are satislied.
All the witchcraft of our people cannot
show the like of this"
"It is so," remarked the old gentleman, in
a tone of intense relief; "without any doubt
it is so. Listen, children of the stars, child
ren of the shining eye and the movable
teeth, who ro.ir out in thunder am) slay from
alar. I am In fat loos, son of Kafa, one.; king
of the Kukuana people. This youth is
Scragga."
"He nearly sciaggcd me," murmured
Good.
"Scragga. son of Twala. the great king
Twnla. husband of a thousand wives, chief
ami lord paramount of the Ktikuanas, keeper
of the great road, terror of his great enemies,
student of the black arts leader ot an hun
dred thousand warriors, Twala the One-eyed,
the Black, the Terrible."
"So," said I, superciliously, "lead us then
to Twala. We do not talk with low people
and underlings."
"It is well, my lords we will lead you, tut
the wav is long. We are hunting three (lays'
journey from the place of the king. But let
uiy lords have patience, and we will lead
them."
"It is well," I said, carelessly, "all time is
before us, for we do not die. We are ready,
lead on. But lufadoos and thou Scragga,
beware! Play us no tricks, make for us no
snares, for before your brains of mud have
thought of them we shall know them and
avenge them. The light frojn the transpar
ent eye of him with the bare legs and the
half-haired face" (Good) "shall destroy
you, and go through your land; his vanish
ing teeth shall tix themselves fast iu you and
eat you up, you and your wives and children;
the magic tubes shall talk with you loudly
aud make you as sieves. Beware !"
This magnificent address did not fail of
its effect; indeed, it was hardly needed, so
deeply were our friends already impressed
with our powers.
The old man made a deep obeisance, and
murmured the word, "Koom, Koom," which
1 afterward discovered was their royal
salute, corresponding to the Bayete of the
Zulus, ami turning addressed his followers.
These at once proceeded to lay hold of all
our goods and chattels, in order to bear them
for us excepting oniy the guns, which they
would on no account touch. They even
seized Good's clothes, which were, as the
reader may remember, neatly folded up be
side him.
He at once nvide a dive for them, and a
loud altercation ensued.
"Let not my lord of the transparent eye
and the melting teeth touch them," said tiie
old man. "Surely his slaves shall carry the
things."
"But 1 want to put 'em on !" roared Good,
in nervous English.
Umbopa translated.
"Nay, my lord," put in Lifadoos, "would
my lord cover up his beauTmil white logs"
(although he was so dark Good hud a singu
larly white skin) "from the eyes of his serv
ants? Have we offended my lord that he
should do such a thing?"
Here i nearly exploded with laughing;
and meanwhile, one of the men started on
with the garments.
"Damn it!" roared Good, "that black vil
liaii has got my trousers."
"Look here, Good," said Sir H"nry, "you
have apjiearcd in this country in a certain
character, and you must live up to it. It
will r.tver do for you to put oa trousers
again. Henceforth you must live in a flan
nel shirt, a pair of boots and an eyeglass."
"Yes," I said, "and with whiskers ou oue

you change any of these things they will
think we are impostors. I am very sorry for
you, but seriously, you must do it If once
they begin to suspect us our lives will not be
worth a brass farthing."
"Do you really think so?" said Good
gloomily.
I do indeed. Your 'beautiful white legs'
and your eyeglasses are now the feature of
our party, aud as Sir Henry stys, you must
live up to them. Be thankful that you have
got your boots on, and that the air is warm."
Good sighed, and said no more, but it took
him a fortnight to get accustomed to his at
tire. CHAPTER VIII.
WE F.XTEIl Kl'Kl'AN AI.AST.
All that afternoon we traveled on along
the magnificent roadway, which headed
steadily in a north-westerly direction. In
f adoos and Scragga walked w ith us, but their
fellows marched about one hundred paces
ahead.
"lnfadoos I said at length, "who made
this road?"
"It was made, my lord, of old time, none
know how or when, not even the wise wo
man G igool. who iias lived for generations.
We are not old enough to remember its
making. None can make such roads now,
but the king lets no grass grow upon it"
"And whose are the writings on the walls
of the caves through which we have passed
on the road?". 1 asked, referring to the Egyptian-like
sculptures we had seeu.
"My IoriL, the hands that made the road
wrote the wonderful writings. We know
not who wrote them."
"When did the Kukuana race come into
this country?" ,
VMy lord, the race came, down here; like
the breath of a storm ten thousand thousand
moons ago, from the great lands which lie
there beyond," and he pointed to the north.
"They could travel no further, so say the
