“Wed struck a mighty valuable store of ivory, that was certain; bur. it was cqu.il'.y clear that we had not yet found the actual Elephant/s Grave Yard, The r-xasperating part of the business wu that the witch doctor iindoubtedly knew the situ- ation oi’ the place we were seeking, but about that matter, and every- thing il"i])i‘l'[l1llllllH to the belieis and (,‘lLsl.OnlS of his people, he re- mained obstiiiately reticent. All we could a'.SCCl'i'.lill, and that was main- ly assumption, was that he was the hci'edi::iry Cmrdian oi the Eleph- ants Grave Yard and took, as his tributc.tl1t~ pick of the tusks of such dying beasts as failed to reach their dusliiiatlon.

“We might have got at the secret in the long run; but luck. that had been with us so far, was due to veer in the 0tI‘.(‘l' direction.

" ‘That's all right, Hamcsl,‘ Bungo reassured his servant; 'ulie.n's the sacriﬁce due to take place?‘

""l"hr.t gives us best part or a week. Any idea whether there is a real lion and where he has up?‘

" '1 will ﬁnd out, bwana,' Hamesi answered.

"Kalul, that evening, g:~'.'e him all the information he wanted. Next morning she was missing. I sup- pose some devil of penitence for striking Hamesi dictated Bungo's subsequent actions. ior nothing would satisfy him but for us to seek the tribal deity in his lair, in the hope that the native girl had not yet been sacriﬁced. I didn't like the business, but I kept my mouth shut and saw to the mechanism of my riﬂe. We realised, of course, that we should have to clear out in dou- ble quick time, If we did rescue the girl; and that would be the end of our hopes of ﬁnding the Eiephanvs Grave Yard, for even the friendliest of savages are apt to turn nasty if you start monkeying with their re- ligion.

"Anyway, Bungo was set on the business, so we slipped out of the village Just after dawn and follow- ed Hamesi along a bush track which we had been told was taboo. We found the lair of the tribal lion at the end of an hour's hard going. The place was ankle deep in bones, and a good many of them were huiimii; in the mouth of the cave lay the mangled remains of Kalui, a most beastly spectacle that sent Hamesi fighting mud.

“A moment later we saw the lion himself, who had betn tnkim: 3. snooze on top of an ant-lic-,a.p. None of your stunted desert brcctl this fellow, but a. real, deep-chested. black-maned forest king. He came straight at us without making a sound, and Bungo let him have it smack ” tween the eyes. While the cnrcase was still twitching, the witch doctor of the wagenl walked out of the cave, and I've never seen s1ufch_lu1'-y on I man's face in all my

"'We may not kill you. because you are our guest,’ he said very quietly, with his eyes fixed on Bongo; but the curse of siznbo be upon you: sleeping or waking he shall haunt you And, in the fulness of your days. a lion shall strike you down. Now go!’

“At Cairo we decided 2.0 put up at the M6113 House Hotel, as Bungo wanted to study the Pyramids, which he had not visited previously.

The one thing we had not reckoned with was that the Menu House v.-.:;. near enough to the Zoo- logical Gcirtlens in the park of the Ghizch Palace for us to hear any cxccptionzil noise mode by the oc- cupniits of the cages.

“Gcc! How those lions did roar. that first night we slept in the hotel rcroszs the river from Cairo. It was two o'clock in the morning when the din woke me up, and I went strnlght along to Bungo's room. with some idea of seeing him through what I believed would be a bad nerve-storm, brought on by the noise; but, Bungo wasn't in his room. The hall—porter said that he had left the hotel and taken the Road of the Pyramid towards Cairo ten minutes earlier.

“I took the same road as fast as I could foot it. and every moment the roaring of the lions grew louder. I scctnctl to know, by instinct, where Bungo was making for; but I never caught a sight of him along the opcn road, although there was a big. bright moon high overhead.

“When I reached Ghizeh Pnlacu park I didn‘t need to ﬁnd anyone to tell me where they kept the lions, the din was awful; and, already, native keepers were hastening to- yards the cages. I joined the rush unlit-cded and then, suddenly, evrrythlng went quiet. deathly quiet. if you understand me.

Appointment of Oscar Drouin, former Liberal member of the legis- lature for Quebec East as opposi- tion organizer was the only week- end development in Quebec's pol- itical lineup.

Mr. Drouin was organizer during the last election campaign of the allied group of Conservatives and insurgent Liberals who oppmcd the Taschereau regime.

Maurice Duplessis. Conservative chieftain, announced Mr. Drouintw appointment while the provinci- still awaited from Premier Adelard

Godbout, an announcement on his ‘ l

choice for cabinet positions.

Also there remained the possibil- ‘

ity the date of the general elec- tion, Aug. 15. would be changed. Though nothing oﬂlcial was said in this regard it was believed the data might be changed because 8 Satur- day polling day would cut down the Jewish vote and interfere with far- mers’ week-end marketing.
