THE BAILUO.1 IKEE.
chapter i.
The Colonel said:
Wo rode for soveral Lours straight
from the shore toward the hoait of the
island. The sun was low in the westorn
sky when we loft t!ie ship. Neither on
the water nor on the land had we felt a
breath of air stirring. The glare was
noon everything. Over the low ranee
of hills miles away in the interior hung a
fow coppor-coioreu clouds. "Winu,
said Briery. Eilooa shook his head.
Vegetation of all kinds showed the ef
facts of the long continued drought,
The eyeVandered wituojt rolicf from
the sickly russet of the undergrowth, so
drv in places that leaves and b terns
cracklod under the horses' feet, to the
yellowish brown of the thirsty trees that
skirted' tho "bridle path. No growing
thing was green except the bell-top cao
tus. fit to flourish in the crater of a liv-
inor volcano.
Kilooa leaned over the saddle and tore
from one of theso plants its top, as big
as a California pear and bloated with
iuice." He crushed tho bell in his fist,
and, turning, flung into our hot faces a
few crratelul drops or water.
Then the guide began to talk rapidly
in his language 01 vowels ana liquids.
BriorV translated for my benefit.
The cod Lalala loved a woman of the
island. lie came in the form of fire.
She, accustomed to the ordinary tompor
atureof theclimo, only shivered before
his approaches. Then ho wooed her as
a shower of rain and won her heart. Ka
kal was a divinity much more powerful
than Lalala, but malicious to tho lust
degree. He also coveted this woman,
who was rery beautiful. Kakal s minor-
tunities were in vain. In spite, ho
chanced her to a cactus and rooted her
to the ground under the burning sun
Tho good Lalala was powerless to avert
this vengeance; but he took pp his abode
with tho cactus woman, still in tue lorm
of a rain showor. and never left her,
even in the driest season. Thus it hap-
pons that the belltop cactus is an unfau
iug reservoir of pure, celd water.
Lonir after dark we foachod the clian
nel of a vanished stream, and Kilooa led
ns for several miles along its dry bed
We were exceedingly tired when the
cuide b.ido us dismount. He totherod
tho panting horses and then dashed into
the denso tmcket on tue Dang, a Hun
dred yards of scrambling, and we came
to a poor thatched hut. The savage
raised both hands above his head and
uttered a musical fulsotto, not unlike the
vodcl necnliar to tho Vabis. This call
brought out the occupant of the hut,
upon whom Briery flashed tho light o
his lantern. It was an old woman, hid
eous beyond the imagination of a dys
peptio's dream.
"Ouianana celaa 1" exclaimed Kalooa,
"Hail, hoi v woman 1" tronRlated Briery.
Between Kilooa and the holy hag there
ensuod a long colloquy, respectful onhis
part, scntebtious and impatient on hers,
Brierv listened with eacer attention.
Soveral times he clutchePviy arm as if
unable to repress his anSiity. The wo
man seemed to bo persuodfefl by Kilooa's
area meats, or won by his entreaties. At
last Abe pointed toward tho southeast,
slowly pronouncing a few words that ap
parently satisfied my companions.
The.directiou indioated by the holy
woman, was still toward the bills", but
twenty or thirty' 'degrees' to the Ieff of
the general course which we had pursued
since leaving the tdiore.
"Push on I push on 1" cried Briery.
"We can afford to lose no time.

We rode all night. At sunrise there
was - a pause of hardly ton minutes for
the seantv breakfast supplied by Our

"Yes," he said ; "it's best you should

Briery produced from an inner breast

re-read until It was worn in the creases.

Glancing aronnd as if he feared that
every tree fern in that tropical wilder
ness was an eavesdropper, or that the
hood-like spathes of the giant caladiumi
overneaa were ears waiting to unnam
some mighty secret of acience, Briery
read in a low voice from the lotter of the
great Swedish botanist:
Yoo will have in those islands " wrote
the Professor, "a rare onuortnnitv to in
vestigate pertain extraordinary accounts

sionary Butcaux concerning tho Mora

gists." The explorer Snohr claims to have

Know, lor accepting an or. spour state

That is not the case with the asser
tions of my lata valued correspondent,
the Jesuit missionary. Father Butoanx
was a learned botanist, an accurate ob
server, and a most pious and conscien
tious man. II o never saw tue Migratory
Tree; but during the long period of his
labors in that part or the world, he ac
oumulated.from widely different sources.
a mass of testimony as to its existence
ana uauits.
"la it nuito incnceivable, my dear
Briery, that somewhere in the range of

complexity and potentiality, as the apo
is above tho polyp.' mature is continu

chasms, no gaps. There may be missing

and cabinets, but there aro none in tho
organic world. Is not all of lower Na

point oi self-consciousness and volition?
In the unceasing process of evolution,
differentiation, improvement in special
function, why may not a plant arrivo at
this point and foel, will, act -in short,
possess and exerciso tho characteristics
of the true animal?"
Briery's voice trembled with enthusi
asm as he read this passage
"1 nave no doubt," continued Pro
fessor Quakversuoh, "that if it Bball bo
your great good fortuno to encounter a
specimen of the Migratory Tree do
scribed by Bateaux, you will find that
it possesses a well-defined syBtom of real
nerves and ganglia, constituting, in fact,
the seat of vegetable intelligence. I con
jure you to be very thorough in your
dissections.
"According to the indications furnish
ed me by the Jesuit, this extraordinary
tree should belong to the order of
Caetaceis. It should be developed only
in conditions of extreme heat and dry
ness. - Its roots should bo hardly more
than rudimentary, affording a precarious
attachment to tho earth. This attach
ment it should by able to sever at will,
soaring up into the air and away to an
other place selected by itself, as a bird
shl ts its habitation. I infer that thoso
migrations are accomplished by means of
the property of seoroting hydrogen gas,
with which it inflates at pleasure a
bladder-like organ of highly elastio
tissuo, thus lifting itself out of the
ground and off to a now abode.
"Butcaux added that the Migratory
Tree was invariably worshiped by the
natives as a supernatural being, and that
the mystery thrown by them around its
cult was the greatest obstacle in the path
of the investigator,"
"There!" exclaimed Briery, folding
up Profesr.or Quakvorsuch's letter. "Is
not that quest worthy the risk or sacrifice
of life itself? To add to the recorded faots
of vegetable morphology tho proved

"Confound tho lamented Decandollo

sively: hot, and I felt that we had como
on a fool's errand.
in.
It was near sunset on the second day
of our journey when Kilooa, who was
riding several rods in advanco of us,
nttcred a quick cry, leaped from his rad
dle, and stooped to the ground.
Briery was at his side in an instant. I
followed with less agility; my joints
wero very stiff, and I had no scientific
enthusiasm to lubricate them. Briery
was on his hands and knees, eagerly
examining what seemed to bo a recent
disturbance of the soil. Tho savage was
prostrate, rubbing his forehead in the
dust, as if in a religious ecstacy, and
warbling the same fulsotto notes that
we had heard at tho holy woman's
hut.
"What beast's trail have you struck?"
I demanded.
"Tho trail of no beast," answored
Briery, almost angrily. "Do you see
this broad round abrasion of tho surface,
where a heavy weight has rostcd? Do
vou see these little troughs in the fresh
earth, radiating from the centor like the
points of a star? They are the soars left
by slender roots torn up from their shal
low beds. Do you see Kilooa's hysteri
cal performance? I tell you we are on the
track of the Saored Tree. It has been
hero, and not long ago."
Acting under Briery's excited instruc
tions wo continued tho hunt on foot.
Kilooa started toward the east, I toward
she west, and Briery took tue southward
course.
To cover t!ie ground thoroughly, we
agreed to advance in gradually widening
zigzags, communicating with each other
at intervals bv pistols shots. There
could have been no more foolish arrange
ment. In a qaarter of an hour I had
lost my head and my bearing jn a tlnekot,
For another quarter of an hour I dis
charged my revolver repoatedly, without
getting a singlo response from east Tot
south. I spent tue remainuer m uuy
light in a blundering effort to make my
way bock to the place where the horses
were; ana then me sun weni aown, ieuv
inc me in sudden darkness, alone iu i
wiidnroess of the extent and character of
uliinh I had not the faintest men.
I will spare you the history of my
sufferings during the whole of that night
and the next day, and the next night.and
another day. When it was dark I wand
ered about in blind dospair, longing for
davlicht. not daring to sleep or even to
stop, and in continual terror of the un
known dancers that surrounded me. In
the daytime I longed for night, for the
sun scorchea its way mroueii me iuiuk
est roof that the luxuriant foliage afford
ed, and drove me nearly mad. The pro
visions in mv haversack were exhausted,
Mr canteen was on my saddle; I should
have died of thirst had it not been for
the bollton cactus, which I found twice.
But in that horrible experience neither
the torture of hunger and thrist, nor the
torture of heat equalled the misery of
the thought that my life wa to be
sacrificed to tho delusion of a crazy
botanist, who had dreamed of the impossible.
The impossible?
On the second afternoon, still stagger
ing aimloasly on through the junglo, I
lokt my last strength and fell to the
ground. Despair and indifference had
long since given way to an eugor desire
for tho end. I closed my eyes with In
describable relief; the hot sun seemed
pleasant on my face aa consciousness de
parted. Did a beautiful and gentle woman
come to mo while I lay unconscious, and
take my head in her lap and put her
arms around me ? Did she press her
f"oe to mine and in a whisper bid mo
have courage ? That was the belief that
filled my mind when it struggled back
for a moment into consciousness; I
clutched at the warm, soft arms and
swooned again.
Do not look at each other and smile,
gentlemen ;ln that cruel wildernoss.in my
helpless condition, I found pity and be
nignant tonderness. '1 he next time my
senses returned I ' saw that something
was bending over me something majes
tiu if not beautiful, humane if not hu
man, gracious if not woman. Tho arms
that held me and drew mo up were moist
and they throbbed with the pulsation of
life. There was a faint, sweet odor, like
the smell of a woman's iterfumod hair.
Tho touch was a caress, the clasp an
embrace.
Can I describe its form? No, not with
a definitcnets that would satisfy tho
Quakversuchcs and tho Brierys. I saw
that the trunk was massive The branches
that lifted me from tho ground and held
mo carefully aud gently wero flexible
and symmetrically disposed. Above my
head thcro was a wreath of strange foli
age, and in tho midst of it a dazzling
sphere of scarlet. The scarlot globo
grew while I watched it, but tho effort
of tho watching was too much for me.
llemember, if yon piease, that at this
time physical exhaustion and mental tor
ture had brought me to the poiut whero
I pasted to and fro bctwoon conscious
ness and unconsciousness as easily and
as frequently as one fluctuates between
slumber and wakefulness during a night
of fever. Itseomed the most natural
thing in tho world that in my extreme
weakness I should be beloved und cared
for by a cactus. I did not seek an ex
planation of this good fortuno, or try to
analyze it. I simply accepted it as a mat
ter of ooursc, as a child aoccpts a benefit
from an unexpectod quarter. The one
idea that possessed me was that I had
found an unknown friend, instinct with
womanly sympathy, and lmmeasureablv
kind.
And as night came on it seemed to me
that the scarlot bulb overhead becamo
euornionely distondod, so that it almost
filled tho sky. Was I gently rocked by
the supple arms that still held me? Were
we floating off together into tho an? I
did not know or care. Now I fancied
that I was in my berth on ship', cradled
by the swell of the sea; now, that I was
borne on with prodigious Bpeed through
the darkness by my own volition. The
sense of incessant motion affected all my
dreams. Whonover I awoke I felt a cool
breeze steadily beating against my face
tho first breath of airsioco we had landed.
I was vaguely happy, gentlemon. I had
surrendered all responsibility for my
own fate. I had gained tho protection
of a being of superior powers.

"Tho brandy Aask, Kilooa!"
It was daylight. I luy upon tho
ground and Briory was supporting my
shoulders. In his face was a look of bo
wililerment that I shall never forget.
"My God!" he cried, "and how did
you get here? Wo gave up the search two
days ago."
The brandy pullod me togothor. I
staggered to my feet and looked around.
The cause of Briery's oxtremo amaze
ment was opparent at a glahco. Wo
wero not in the wilderness. We woro at
the shoro. There was tho bay and the
ship at anchor, half a mile off. They
wero already lowering a boat to send for
ns.
And there to tho south was a bright
red spot on the horizon, hardly larger
than tho morning star tho Balloon Troo
retnrning to the wilderness, I saw it,
Briery saw it, tho savago Kilooa saw it.
We watched it till it vanished. Wo
watched it with very different emotions,
Kilooa with superstitious reveronoo,
Briery with scientific interost and intense
disappointment, I with a heart full of
wonder and gratitude.
. I clasped my forehead with both hands.
It was no dream, then. Tho Tree, tho
caresB, the embrace, tho scarlot bulb, the
night journey through tho air, were not
creations and incidents of delirium. Call
it tree, or call it plant animal thero it
was! Let men of soionce quarrel over
