Sev-. eral mysterious deaths have occur-! red, but so fur she bus escaped harm, due la the shrewdness off her cousin , and protector, Vilak.j a curious mixture of American and! Oriental blood aud a stuJeut of i criminology. Vilak has been trying to per suade Eliso to leavo Porto Verde,! lettliig him stay behind with hisl friend, Lincoln Nunually, ah, elder ly American chemist, to solve the! mystery. She finally agrees, but' her departure Is prevented by threat of floods. Messengers ride through the countryside wurning the natives. Vilak suggests they g"o to the house of Gayiori Pren tiss, a .recluse and a forbidding man and an enemy of Kline's, whom she suspects of a knowledge! of the .conspiracy against, her.; Nevertheless, she agrees it Is their; duty to wurii him. . , j Vilak learns the flood wurning is a ruse to get Prentiss out of his house and so informs htm. The party is besieged by an armed force In a : stone tower next to Prentiss' house. Vilak disperses the enemy by dynamiting a dam and causing a real flood. When the water recedes they discover Prentiss is. gone. The next day, Tinky, Klisc's two y oar-old orphaned nephew, is kid naped for the et'cond time. A jia tive, reports Prentiss has been seen with a-uaby. The trail leads into the jungle and V(lnk makes pre parations for a, loug journo,v in pursuit. With native truckers, they take up the trail. Culamity overtakes them. Two of their re liable natives are hurt and two of thbir white friends are. fever vic tims. They arc left with a friendly tribe. Theachcry exists iii their ranks. Vilak and Nunually are bathing in a river which is infested with the fiorce flesh-eating piran has when Vilak suddenly dashes out and seizes one of their na tives who had been squatting on the bank. NOW BEGIN THE STORY CHAPTER XXXVII "What did he do?" the old man repeated. "Nothing except to-cut his finger so that the blood would draw the piranhas and make them attack us. If you know anything about their characteristics you know that blood , makes them perfectly -mad: ' If we had wafted, a few minutes longer they'd have come in fewnnns and "LINOLEUM" .

He dragged the prisoner roughly back to the camp, kept him under strict guard, then at dawn wheu the expedition Marled on its, way again slackened his bund? so that his feet were free and put him at the head of the train, where tne wasps and fire ants were apt to be most irritating and the dangers from the jaiaraca and deadly coral snake greatest. Much as Vilak j wished It, no pararaca struck him.i Instmtd, one ot the negroes, through carelessness in crossing a swamp, was bitten by a loathsome sort of copperhead and died before an antl-toxln could be administered. Tho last tragedy deepened the gloom which had begun like a cloud to overhang tho travelers. The murmuring among the men increased. When the cook was pre paring supper the other albino bhufflcd forward vo Vilak, and an nounced that he and his fellows would go no farther. It was cer tain death for all of them If they proceeded, ho mumbled. Every one except foolish white men knew that the country which they were Approaching was haunted; the clos er they came to R, the tighter the evil spell was woven about them. He and the other natives had de cided to turn back. To their astonishment, Vilak quietly replied that he and his friends were nt liberty to depart any time thoy liked t further, that their departure would delight him. At dawn the expedition split, the five mutineers sullenly going back in the direction from which "they had come, while the three whites and the silent Indian guide, who after some, vucctlatiou had refused to join in the rebels councils, tramped on towards tho west. :, As they traveled the three friends conversed HKIe, the humid heat of the jungle and their steady, unflagging pace consuming all the energies of Eltse and the old man. Day after day they wont on un interruptedly through the tangle of grim, towering trees, always wRh the. feeling that 'they wore being watched, followed. Soon tho , In creasing density of tho underbrush made traveling extreiwely difficult for tho remaining mules, which, on tho point of exhaustion,' were now mere breathing skeletons through the ravages of tiny 'winged and crawling parasites. Reluctantly Vilak decided to abandon them, shift as .many of their burdens as possible onto bu nion 'shoulders, and for the rest, live on- the country. Two days after' tliey had so deotded they: i came upon a tribe of. d wailed, i blackish Indians, almost pygmies, i(who lived in the branches of trees or in mere windbreaks which they i, hastily constructed wherever they I might bo. .: ' , . -' "i The chief, whose favor Vilak won by a gift of jewelry, said 1m an swer to other's nuestirm that- he i had heard from a neighboring chief how strange men had passed that way not long before. But he' could only say what ho had heard from the lips of others; uoue in his own tribe had seen. "Where you white men go?" he grunted in thick Guarany. . Vilak pointed toward the netting sun. "Other Indian tell me, white man, no good there. Wtyu there?'' The old chief shuddered, closed his furret-IIko eyes, aud did not au swer. As the sun disappeared, and the cool damp night enveloped the jungle, the chief took two pieces of wood, nnd rubbing them together while his followers mumured a dismal ceremonial chant, kindled a fire. Tho newcomers sat around It to ent birds' eggs and a large sort of squirrel. Their hunger satisfied, the women danced, then the chief folded his it'gs under him, and like Ragaruudl, begnn to tell the heroic legends of his race. He continued until his shrill, piping voice grew weary, bado the visitors good night and slowly climbed up into the trees, the other men and women following, leaping from limb to limb and liana to liana with all the dexterity of monkeys. '"Moro proof that ihere-U'a pro! nounceu Oriental influence all through the Indians,". Vilak said to Nunually as they sat by the fire. "Even a tribe In such a low state of development as this one. This chief, too, told the story about the man who walked through the firo and became a god. These mon pi-obuhly got the Oriental traces in: their culture indirectly through the Incas, whose civilization was un doubtedly un Oriental one, possibly, Egyptian. ; "Certainly that's whore these firo legends came from, for tho In cas had the most elaborato fire worship ritual the world has ever known., .. , "Incidentally, If we keep on go ing west this way, we ought to be getting out of tho jungle onto the uplands pretty quickly and prob ably see some Inca ruins. We're heading straight for the And ens plateau, and they weren't, confined to that narrow area by any means. They were too vigorous and too colonlxaing a people. They were spread fng out tremendously when the Spanish came aud put a sudden end to their empire.'1 , . ., Another1 week they traveled through the gloomy, unbroken for est. Then they lost their last na tive ndhcrent. They had seen n jaguar lurking in the underbrush as they were about to pitch tholr camp;,. Vilak nnd tho Indian guide had gone out to stalk it to prevent the animal from springing , upon them while they slept. They separated to approach ft from two sides; Vilak killed It with! a well-plaocd bullet. Striding back: to the camp, ho rejoined Eltpe, ani the old man. The guldo did. not return.! Vilak and the others bo, gan -to boat the brush. : j j ; The setting sun swiftly put an end to the search : Long into the night, they Eat by the, fire shouting aud shooting th6:r .rifles to guide the oilier back to tho camp, i t .. "Either he's lost . In; the thlckot or he's chosen to dlsuppoar for his own purposes," Vilak grunted.. VAf- most certainly the latterj for bo's one of tho few men I've met who really know the jungle. However, we'll look again in the morning." At daylight they renewed their efforts until Viiak . decided that they could afford to look no longer. They pushed on. The next day the jungle begau to lessen perceptibly, The trees became fewer and smaller, the trail they were follow ing became a narrow but well huulnn i.iiDi 9nnn Ilia lunula WHH l..,kln.l a nil llAU urspn An A ' wide rocky plateau covered here a nl thura wit h it war far! mi ItnJwiAR ot spiny cactus and thickets of thistles and thorns. Great vulture like carranchos circled In the sky, hopefully searching for some dying bush-deer which would soon pro vide them with a sumptuous meal; tiny gossamer spiders drifted everywhere on their fine webs. Mountains showed dimly in the dis tance. The trail led toward them. They pitched camp on a wide red rock which for mod part of a low bluff rising from the plain, delight ed to be In the oen once more. Two days later the mountains wero much nearer. With a Uttlo strain. ing of their oyes they could now distinguish the different peaku and ranges, all of the same brilliant red which hud characterized the rock about, Porto Verdo. . Some were . short and jagged, re sembling great re.d icicles; others wero long and rolling like hugo dunes of vermilllon sand. Over the highest, cone-shaped and look ing rather like the upper half of an enormous pear, drifted a thin black cloud. , ' - "Looks like an oxtlnc't volcano," said Vilak, pointing to It. " This wholo western part of tho, contin ent 1b volcanic. Undoubtedly why thoy have so many earthquakes. This one doesn't look as if it com-; pared In size with Chimhorazo, but it must havo been a good one in its j day." .. . -"j Another dny and- a half brought the nijir the foothills. Tho trail dropped sharply into a long mountain-girded valley which led like a highway built by giants to the great red heap in the distnnce. It was practically treeless, except for a few bare outcroppinga of rock', being almost entirely covered by continuous matted stretches - of cactus and the other thorny plants which , occurred, on. . the plateau. Swarms of purple butterflies drift ed lazily over the tops of the green vegotation. Here, too, carranchos wheeled lazily , in the sky., "This Is obviously the devil val ley Bagarundi warned us of,',' Vilak grunted as ho stood on a high rock and looked down on thn, wido vista spread before him, ."And that extinet volcano is undoubtedly the red mountain." . He f took some betel. "We'll know in a little while whether he had any real ronson bo; he afraid. Keep to the center? dpi the path. Remember that. Keep lo the contor of the pnlh.
