The outer vault was now swarming with
troopers , and their fierce yells made the boys
shmMer.

The bolts were warped and rusty , hut Pink
attacked them with a spade , and soon drove
them lionie
"saro , al last , lads , " he cried , "I 'unllred

The boys were eager to ask more que-

Into the passage on hands 0111 ( knees.
. "lCeep a match burning , Jack , " he dl-
rectcd , "and don't lose the box It never
entered my stupll 'cad to bring lanterns. "
, At a distance ot ten feet from the slab
: the low corridor terminated Into a small
square chamber , from which a flght or
stone steps ascended Into gloomy blackness
Pink led the way up very Blowly , so
thai Jack , who was next to him , could
easily manage the supply ot light.
Al shorl Intervals the steps twisted and
zigzagged In a most bewildering manner ,
and the higher the party mounted the purer
and cooler they found the aIr. Their admiration -
mIraton was aroused by the strength and
solidity ot the stone work and by the In-
trlcale planning of the cavernous passage.
Suddenly they saw I glimmer at gray
light overhead , and a few more steps brought
them to an arched exit from the barrier.
Passing through they round themselves
: on a small projecting balcony , surrounded
. ' by a low parapet.
For several minutes they stood In mute
wonder and delight. Deneath them the great
barrIer dropped sheer seventy reel to the
ground , while Its summit was thirty reel
overhead ,
To right and left the grim mountain walls
seemed to pierce the sky ns they converged
far In the dlstanco. Between them lay the
continuation ot the gorge which Tlppo
Sahib had so effectively barrel to man and
. beast. From such a height and , in the
murky light the narrow strip or forest resembled -

Myies "I'd like to have a peep down the !
other side ot the barrIer. "
"Is there no way by which they can cut :
around and gel at us ? " inquired Jnck.
"Not unless they travel about thirty miles

"And how about the opal ? " exclaimed
Myles. " 1 hope wo don't have to go down

"Dul wo do , lad , " sold Pink , quietly .
"Thai's why I brought the rope along "
"Anll how will wo get back ? Wo can't

'Vo could It wo 'ad to , " , answered Pink ,
"but II would be 'ardly sore to return

troopers waitIng on us outside the gratng . "
"Our best plan Is this , lads , " he adled. ,
"Wo'l gel the opal and then push on

Pushing oa they reached the end of the
avenue Here the torrent deviated from its
straight ourse to describe an arc around one

rock which rose hires or four reel from tht

long and looked as though nature had Intended -
tended II to be an Island.
I3ut instead ot flowing both ways around It
the stream washed only the ( left side. To the
right wa a sort ot semi-circular dry gully ,
and or course Its bottom was somewhat higher
than the level or the water.
On the center at this raised , mound-like
formation stood the temple , surrounded by
tall , rank grass. Being on the right bank
at the stream , Pink and his companions
were able to reach It without wading.
The once majestic structure was now In
ruins. Fallen columns and stones obstructed
the floor . and In the carving or the cornices -
nices birds and bats had made their ncsts.

Now ! what's the reason tie water never tore

The conundrum was too much for the boys

Instantly the stream was diverted from its

Pink hall barely time to spring upm the

In a trice ( ho and the boys were across

shouted with delght to see that the channel
was empty except for a tiny , trickling stream
In the center ot UtI ( bed ot sand nn'l pebbles.
One or two incites ot placid water covered
the bottom ot the pool.
"Shall we begin digging ? " cried Myles.
"Nol tIll we start a fire , " replied Pink
"It's too dark without I , and , beside , we
don'l want wild beasts prowling about "

across to the low , timbered attoe The boys
followed him , and started to HaUler wood

the time the blaze was flashing ruddily up
and down the gorge.
it was a thrilling moment when Pink advanced -
vanced Into the pool and took his stand under
the jutting rock Every eye was on him
as ho began to dig The excavation grew
larger , but nothing could be seen for the
murky water that flile.l It.
When Ito ( sides began to cave In Pink
called on Jack for assistance , and both dug
steadily for ten mlnules , tossing up a great
heap et sand anti gravel
Suddenly a ringing , metallic sound was
heard. Plnlt dropped his sllado and fell on
fel
his knees In the water. Wlh both arms
ho groped to and fro In the submerged
hole
"I 'all 'ohl ot the box " ho cried hoarsely ,
as he rose to his reet. "It's anchored down
with chains at each end , so that floods
couldn't wash It away Look under yonder
bank for a stake , lads , whlo I examlno this

On the edge or the pool nearest the tom-
pie , and covered with rank weeds , Pink
quickly discovered the head or a thick Iron
spike A moment later Myles made a similar -
lar fnd on the other shore.

was seen fastened to the extremity of each

Slowly th ( , chains rose up , dragging a great

Into view ;
Eager shouts rang through the ( gorge as

" 'Do you hear that ? ' says lme

" 'I never heard anything plainer In my

"Mrs. Due Hen was so proud or her new
white egg hint ( site went back after a while
to look at It. Nobody had botherell I ,
There It was , shining white In the grass.
Site covered It up and hid It as wel as sIte
could and then she went about getting dinner -
ner ready
"The next morning she went to the nest
and laid another egg , just lee the first one.
This happened for three mcrnlngs , but on
the fourth morning , when Mrs. Duo Hen
went back she round four eggs In the nest ,
and all tour appeared to he dingy anti muddy
loolelng. Site was very much astonish and
alarm , as well she might be , for hero right
before her eyes she saw four eggs when she
knew In reason that there should bo but
three , anll not only that ( , they were all dingy
and thirty
"Mrs Due len was so excIted that site
took off her bonnet and began to tan herself.
Then silo wondered ' whether she hal not
made a mlsccunt-whether she had not really
laid four instead ot three eggs , The mere
she thought about It the more confused she
becante She hung her bonnet on a blackberry -
berry bush and tried to ccunl off the days
on her toes. She began to count-'Ono , two ,
threo'-nnd alto would have stopped there ,
but she couldn't. She hall tour toes on her
foot and alto was compeled to count item
all . rhere was a toe on' thb root for every
egg In this nest
"This caused lrs , Blue " hen to feel somewhat -
what more comfortable In mind and body ,
but alto was left In such mi hysterical state
I
that she went off cacklIng ' nervously and
postponel layIng an egg unl \ too late In the
afternoon. After that Uliro were five In thin

ten alogethier ( . Then Mrs , Due len rumpled
up her feathers and got mad wih herself

department shall be presiding judge therein
and whcn a larger number shal sit together
the senior of that number shall be preldlng

I will be seen thaI In addition to the
necessary details or reorganization two ad-
ditonal features are provided for. lrst- I
Minority representation. This was recog-
nized In the supreme court commission , and
has given satsracton , Since 156 It has
been time law wlh reference to the count or
appeals In New York. President Harrison
recognlzel II In his appointments tl the ( cir-
cult and supreme courts. I Is In time Interest -
crest ( or fair play , as neiher at the political
the nmelulment In
parties can carry proposed
this state against the opposition or all the
others. Anti Ir the democrats and populsts
are to bo called oa to help secure the allop-
ton or a new system why not encourage them
with the hope or participating In the all-
ministration or lie ( system after It shah
have been adopted ? I tIme queston be aSleed ,
hew shall II he enforced ? the answer Is :
In the ( same way that the provision Is en-
forced that a judge or the supreme courl
shal be a resident or the state rer thrle
years prior to his election , or that 10 must
be a citizen ot the Unltell States , or thai ho ;
must bo thirty years or age No person who t
Is ineligible will be a caadldate. The pro-
vision will enforce itself.
The majority party may still elect al I
the judges I its conventions should have
a choice ot men In opposing parties I
could ! make a selecton from such parties , ,
limes such selecton on its tickets nnl sled
them. There Is no Imlalon on freedom or
voting . 1 Is only I a Imlnton at elhlblly
In lie same way as a lack or age or citzen-
ship Is a Imltallon or the eligibility oC many
individuals. There Is no unlimited choice
for thai high omco at lie present time.
'fho second feature Is the prohibiton or
changes from Otto department Ilto anotiier
This Is to IJrOvent log rolling to secure certain -
tain desired declslol I will also tenth to
relIeve ( lie jlllges front the imputation or
