"I'll is is p'ttiiitf rather ghastly," said Sir
Henry, peeping into the daik doorway.
"Come on, QuateriiKiin nmtarcs priorcs.
Don't keep the old l;dy waiting!" and he
politely made way f r me to lead the van,
for which 1 inwardly did not bless him.
"Come, pet on, old fellow," said Good,
"or we shall lose our fair guide."
Thus adjured. I started down the passage.
and after about twenty iaees found myself
in a gloomy apartment some forty feet long.
by tlnr.y broad, bv thirty hign, which in
some past ae had evidently been hollowed.
by Uanil-labor, out of the mountain. This
apartment was not nearly so well lighted as
the vast stalactite ante-cave, and at the lirst
glance all 1 could make out was a massive
stone table running its length, with a colos
sal white figure at its head, and life-sized
white figures ail round it. Next I made out a
brown thing, seated on the table in the cen
vter, ' and in another moment my eyes grew
accustomed to the light, and 1 saw what all
these things were, and I was tailing out of
it as hard as my legs would carry me. 1 am
not a "nervous man, in a general way, and
very little troubled with superstitions, of
which 1 have lived to see the folly; but
am free to own that that sight quite upset
me, and had it not beeu that Sir lienry
caught me by the collar and held me, I do
honestly believe that in another live minutes
I should have been outside that stalactite
"cave, and that the promise of all the dia
monds in Kimberly would not have induced
me to enter it again. Hut he held me tight,
o l stopped because I couiu not help my
'self. But next second his eyes got accus-
'tomed to the light, too, and he let go of me.
and began to mop the perspiration otf his
forehead. As for GimmL he swore feebly.
and Foulata threw her arms round his neck
and shrieked.
Only Gagool chuckled loud and long.
It was a ghastly sight. There at the end
of the lone stone table, holding in his skele
ton fingers a great white spear, sat Death
himself, shaped in the form of a colossal
human skeleton, fifteen feet or more in
height. High above his head he held the
spear, as though in the acr to strike; one
bony hand rested on the stone table before
him, in the position a man assumes on ris
ing from his seat, whilst his frame was bent
forward so that the vertebra of th- neck.
and the gri!:!rng. c!"ami:ig skull projected
toward us, and ::xed its hoi iow eye-places
uren us, t'.ie ja.. a little open, as though it
were alwi-.t t . -;.

said 1, faintly, at last.
"And what are tht.se things?" said Good,
pointing to the white company round the
table.
"Ai d what on enrth is that thing?" said
Sir Jleurr, pointing to the brown creature
seated on the table.
"licet heel heel" laughed Gagool. Tc
those who enter the Hall of the Djath, evil
comes. Hec! ii.e! hee! ha J ha!
' Come. Jncu'.'ii. brave in battle, come and

camriit his ooat in iier skinny fingers, and led
him ;.wa v pi a r.l the table. We followed.
l'resenr'v she stopired and pointed at the
brown object seated o-i the table. Sir Henry
looked, un 1 started back with an exclama
tion; and no wonder; for there seated, quite
nake l. on ihe taSie, the head which Sil
Henry's battle-ax had shorn from the body
re.-iiiig on its s. was the gaunt corpse
or Twain, last k li r of the Kuku inas. Yes,
t!:f-re, the he.n! perched upon tiie knees, it
s;it in all its ligiines-. tiie verlebiaj project
ing a full inch above the level of the shrunk
en & mi of the neck. Over the whole surface
of tha corpse theie was gathered a thin.
glassy him, which made its apjH'aranco yet
mora hii tiling, and for which we were, at
the moment, quite unable to account, till we
presently observed that from the roof of the
chamber the water fell steadily, drip! drop!
drip! on to the neek of the corpse, from
whenee it ran down over the entire surface,
and linally escajtcd into the rock through a
tiny hole in the tabic. Then 1 guessed what
it was Twala's body was being transformed
iuto a stalactite.

While we had been engaged in getting
over our fright, and in examining the grisly
wonders of the place. Gagool had been dif
ferently occupied. Somehow or other for
she wxs marvelously active when she chose
she scrambled on to the great table, and
made her way to where our departed friend
Twala was placed, under th dri;, to see,
suggested Good, how he was "pickling." or
for som.' d:ii".: purpose of her own. Then
she came hobbling back, stopping now and
again to address a remark (tho tenor of
w hich 1 could not catch) to one or other of
the shrouded forms just as you or I might
greet an old acquaintance. Having tone
through this mysterious and horrible ceremo
ny, she squatted herself down on the table
immediately under the white Deatli, anil be
gan, so far as I could make out, to offer np
prayers to It. The spectacle of this wicked
old creature pouring ont supplications (evil
ones, no doubt) to the arch-enemy of ' man
kind, was so uncanny that it caused us to
t-.asten our inspection.;.- "Now," Gagool," said
I, in a low voice somehow one did not dare
to . speak" above la whisper in that place
"lead us to the chamber,'.' "
:The old creature -promptly scrambled
down off the table. . . .
"My lords are not afraid?" she said leer
ing np into my face.
"Lead on."
"Good, my lords;" and she hobbled round
to the back or the great Death. "Here f i
the chamber; let my lords light the lamp. I
and enter,", and she placed the gourd full ot (
ol! upon the floor, and leaned herself against I
the side of the care. I took out a match, ot '

"1) uot Jest' with us," 1 sal ! sternly.
"1 j fit not, in y lords. See!' and sh

As she did so, on holding up the lamp we
pen-rived t:iat a muss of stone was slowly
rising from the Hour und vanishing into the

the great -lone r-iised its-lf, till at last it had

sented it-c,f to us in the place w inch it had
tilled.
"Enter, white men from the stars," said
Gagool, advancing into the doorway; "bul
first hear your servant, Gagool the old. The
bright stones that ye will see were dug out
of the pit over which the Silent Ones are set,
and stored here, I know not by whom. But
once has this place been entered since tiie
time that those who stored the stones de
parted in haste, leaving them behind. The
report of the treasure went down among the
people who lived in the country from age to
age, but none knew where the chamber was,
nor the secret of the door. But it happened
that a white man reached this country from
over the mountains, perchance he, too. came
from the stars, and was well received by the
king of the day. He it is who sits yonder,"
and she pointed to the fifth king at the table
of the dead. "And it came to pass that he
and a woman of the country who was with
him came to this place, and that by chance
the woman learned the secret or the door a
thousand ye.irs might ye search, but ye
should never lind it Then the white man
entered with the woman, and found the
stones, and tilled with stones the skin of a
small goat, which the woman had with her
to hold food. And as he was going from
the chamber he took up one more stone, a
large one, and held it to his head." Here
she paused.
"Well," 1 asked, breathless with interest
as we all were, "what happened to Da Sil
vestra?" The old hag started at the mention of the
name.
"How knowest thou the dead man's
name?" she asked, sharply ; and then, with
out waiting for an answer, went on:
"None know what happened; but it came
about that the white man was frightened,
for be flung down the goat-skin, with the
stones, and fled out with only the one stone
in his hand, and that the king took, and it is
the stone that thou, Macumazahn, didst take
from Twala's brow."
"Have none entered here since?" I asked,
peering again down the dark passage.
"None, my lords. Only the secret of the
door hath been kept, and every king hath
opened it, thought he hath not entered.
There is a saying that those who enter
there wilt die within a moon, even as the
white man died in the cave upon the moun
tain, where ye found him, Macumazahn.
Ha! ha! mine are true words!"
Our eyes met as she said it, and 1 turned
sick and cold. How did the old hag know
all these things?
"Enter, my lords. If I speak truth, the
goat-skin with the stones will lie upon the
floor; and if there is truth as to whether it is
death to enter here, that will ye learn after
ward. Ha! ha! ha!" And she hobbled
through the door-way, bearing the light with
her; but 1 confess that once more I hesitat
ed about following.
"Oh, confound it all!" said Good, "here
goes. 1 am not going to be frightened by
that old devil ;" and followed by Foulata,
who. however, evidently did not at all like
the job, for she was shivering with fear,
he plunged into the passage after Gagool
an example which we quickly followed.
A few yards down the passage, in the nar
row way hewn out of the living rock Gagool
had paused, and was waiting for us.
"See. my lords," she said, holding the
light before her, "those who stored the
treasure here fled in haste, and bethought
them to guard against any one who should
lind the secret of the door, but had not the
time," and she pointed to large square
blocks of stone, which had, to the height of
two courses (two feet three), been placed
across the passage with a view to walling it
up. Along the side of tiie passage wen;
similar blocks ready for use, and, most curi
ous of all, a heap of mortar and a couple of
trowels, which, so far as we had time to
examine them, appeared to be of a similar
shape and make to those used by workmen
to this day.
Here Foulata, who had throughout been
in a state of great fear and agitation, said
that she felt faint and could go no further,
but would wait there. Accordingly we set
her down on the unfinished wall, placing the
basket of provisions by her side, and left her
to recover.
Following the passage for about fifteen
paces further, we suddenly came to an elaborately-painted
wooden ' door. It was
standing wide open. Whoever was last
there had either had not the time or bad for
gotten to shut it.
Across the threshold lay a" skin ' bag.
formed of a goat-skin, that appeared to be
full of pebbles.
"Hee! hee! white men."' sniggered Gaj
goo!, as the light from th lamp fell upon it.
"What did I tell ye, that the white man who
came Here fled in haste, aud arooned the
woman's bag behold it 1"

On the opposite side of the chamber were
about a score of wooden boxes, something
like Martini-Henry ammunition boxes, only
rather larger and painted red.
"There are the diamonds," cried I;
bring the light"
Sir Henry did so, holding it close to the
top box, of which the lid, rendered rotten by
time, even in that dry place, appeared to
have been smashed in, probably by D.i Sil
vestra himself. Pushing my hand through
the hoie in the lid 1 drew it out full, not of
diamonds, but of gold pieces, ot a shape that
none of us had seen before, and with what
looked like Hebrew characters stamped up
on them.
"Aii!" I said, replacing the coin, "we
shan't go back empty-handed, anyhow.
There must be a couple of thousand pieces
in each box, and tuen; are ;ight.en boxes.
I suppose it was the money to pay the work
men anil niereh. uits."
"Well," put in Good, "1 think that is the
lot; 1 don't sei any diamonds, unless t!ie
old 1'ortugucstt put them ad into this bag."
"Let my lords look yonder, where it is
the darkest, if they would lind the stones,"
said Gagool, interpreting our looks. "There
my li-rds will lind a nook, and three stone
ciiests in the nook, two sealed and one
open."
Before interpreting this to Sir Henry,
who had the light, 1 could not resist asking
how she knew these things, if no one had
entered the place since the white man, gen
erations ago.
"Ah, Macumazahn, who watched by
night," was the mocking answer, "ye who
live in the stirs, do ye not know that some
have eyes that can see through rock?"
"Look in tiiat c irner, Curtis," I said, indi
cating the. spot Gagool had pointed out.
"Hullo, you fellows," he said, "here's a
recess. Great heavens! look here."
We hurried up to where he was standing
in a nook, something like a small bay-window.
Against the wall of this recess were
placed tore? stone chests, each about two
feet square. Two were fitted with stone
lids, the lid of the third rested against the
side of the chest which was open.
"Look!" he repeated, hoarsely, holding
the lamp over the open chest. VVe looked,
and for a inoiiiont cou.d m ilce nothing out,
on account of a silvery siieeu that dazzled
us. When our eyes rot used to it we saw
that the ciiest was three parts full of uncut
diamonds, most of them of consideraole
size. Stooping 1 picked some up. Ves,
there was 110 mistake about it, there was the
unmistakable soapy feel about them.
1 fairly gasped as 1 dropped them.
"We are the rich -st men in the whole
world," I said. "Monte Cristo is a fool to
us."
"We shall flood the market with dia
monds," said Good.
"Got to get them thero first," suggested
Sir Henry.
"Heel hee! hee!" went old Gagool be
hind us, as she flitted about like a vampire
bat "There are the bright stones that ye
love, white nie:i, as many as ye will; take
them,' run them through your fingers, eat
them, hel hee! drink them, ha! ha!"
There was something so ridiculous at that
moment to 1113' mind in the id.'a of eating
and drinking diamonds, that 1 began to
laugn outrageously, an example which the
others followed, without knowing why.
-- TAW
"Look!"' he repeated, hoarsely, holding Vie
uimp over ine open cnesr.
There we stood and snrieked with laugiiter
over the gems which were ours, which had
been found for ns thousands of years ago by
the patient delvers in the great hole yonder,
and stored for us by Solomon's long-dead
overseer, whose name, perchance, was writ
ten in the characters stamped on the faded
wax that yet adhered to the lids of the ciiest.
Solomon never got them, nor David, nor Da
Silvestra, nor anybody else. We had got
them; there before us were millions of
pounds worth of diamonds, and thousands
of pounds worth of gold and ivory, only
waiting to be taken away.
Suddenly the lit passed oft, and we
stopped laughing.
"Open the other chests, white men.
croaked Gagool, "there are surely more
therein. Take your fill, white lords."
Thas adjured, we set to work to pull up
the stone lids on the other two, first not
without a feeling of sacrilege breaking the
seals that fastened them.
Hooray! they were full, too, full to the
brim; at least the second one was; no
wretched Da Silvestra had been filling goat
skins out of that, ' As for the third chest it
was only about a fourth full, but V.v ...,.:os
were all picked ones; none less jhan twen
ty carats, and some of them as large as
pigoon-egg?. Some of the biggest ones,
however, we could see by holding them up
to the light were a little yellow, "off
colored," as they call it at Kimljerley.
What we did not see, however, was the"
look of fearful malevolence that old Gago 1
favored us with as she crept crept like a
snake, out of the treasure-chamber and
down the passage toward th massive door
of solid rock.
