In his own Mmiagi- mind the cowboy knew better than this, realizing that it was the exercise of remarkable sua- gacity in the line of trailers that had , achieved such a result for the war blacks. The situation was far from cheer- ful, and it certainly required pluck of no ordinary calibre in order to face the music without flinching. Silence was a thing of the past, for when heaven’s artillery deigned to refrain from bombarding their ears with a series of terrific explosions, the black warriors Were exchanging signals with those of their ilk on the top of the cliff. To ascend was no longer the one ambition of the adventurers, since it was evident that should they arrive at the top after a most arduous and dangerous climb it would only be to face death at the hands of the wait- ing Zambodi warriors whose assegais had been whetted for bloody serv- ice. What then? Between the upper and the nether stone they seemed in danger of be- ing pulverized. Indeed, some plan of action appeared to have been arrang- ed between the two wings of the hos- tile army, for presently stones began to crasb downward from the heights, HEART DISEASE is a symptom of Kidney Disease.

They scarred the ledge here, there and everywhere — they chipped off pieces of the gneiss as though with the blow of a trip hammer, such was the tremendous power gained by their downward plunge. It would seem almost miraculous that any living being could remain upon that shelf and exist, but thanks to the formation of the cliff in gne | place, Ww here the rock was hollowed out, they were a®le to flatten them- selves beyond the danger line ad wait for the furious bombardment to cease. Whether the energetic fellows above had used up all the available supply of loose trap-rock, or fondly be- lieved they must have pulverized their enemies by this time, the show- er of descending missels finally grew less in volume, until at last, some signal casued it to cease alio- gether. Jim Bludsoe crept forth to recon- noitre, and the rest awaited his re- port. He was gone five, ten minutes, and they began to grow a trifle anxious. In whispers they consulted as to the bast move they could make iw order to outwit the black wolves who howled for their blood; but it was a hard nut to crack, and the puzzle could not be solved until they heard the cowboy’s report. And as they crouched there, lis- tening and waiting, a sharp sibilant hiss from Red Eric warned them of impending danger. tex had hardly than his attention some moving object that came be- tween the cloudy sky and his eyes, an object that quickly resolved itself into a wriggling human figure danger- ling at the end of a rope. Of course it was a bodi scout, sent above to ascertain afiairs on the ledge. Lower came to follow his éyes were strained to any evidence of human _ presence around him, but he would have need- ed the eyes of a feline to have made out the shadowy forms against the black rock. Just then, in a vicious mood, the plant of nature took particular pains to send a zig- bolt earthward somewhere the hills, and the whole was illuminated by a ma- gician’s wand. The dangling turned directly crouching figures, and such was the amazing brightness of the heavenly torch that Rex could distinctly the look of sudden fierce joy flashed over the cruel features discovered where the covey of tives had found refuge. There was no time to more, for darkness succeeded, so deep and profound after the passing of that dazzling white light, that Rex seem- ed suddenly stricken blind. He felt Red Eric spring from his side, and could give a shrewd guess as to the nature of his mission, so that he was not very much surprised when almost immediately on the heelg of... this movement there came a shriek of mortal agony that start- ed on a line with the ledge and ended fully thirty feet below, to be quickly followed by a dull shock, full of the most dreadful possibilities. The danger from that source was no more. Another shower of rocks might be looked for, but failed to materialize, which was pretty good proof. that their enemies had other game in pros- pect.

The ledge proved of considerable length, and yet there was but a small portion of it that was not sub- ject to the bombardment of the Phil- istines, Which proved what a streak of good luck had been theirs when they found such convenient shelter from the storm of weighty missiles that had recently poured down upon the shelf from above. Rex was moving along, one hand upon the wall for guidance, whe without the least warning in the world his fingers clutched vacancy, He received quite a shock, under the impression that he was on the brink, and for the moment dared not move lest by even the slightest action in the world he precipitate the catas- trophe that seemes impending, for he doubted not but that he was upon the ragged edge of an unfathomable ulf and though the stupendous for- une contained in the pockets of his + w:GESTION, resulting ‘rom weakness of the stomach, is relieved by Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the great stom- wh tonic and cure for DYSPEPSIA, coat might buoy up his spirits and lighten his heart when clouds weigh- ed heavily upon him, he could not ex- St enema omen act BETTER BREAD CAN BE BAKED pect it to take wings and waft him ) WITH A FEW PI THEY ARE gently to solid earth below.

The discovery of the cave at least promised something of mystery, for no ong as yet knew anything about its dimensions, where it ran, or whe— ther there was a chance of ultimate escape through its means. When they ha@ = crept cautiously along some little distance, it was de- cided that the danger of a light be- ing seen by their enemies was reduc- ed to a minimum, and s0 after a brief struggle a torch was induced to take fire.

Rex saw nothing beyond the bare rough walls some six or seven ‘feet apart, and the black shadows mark- ing the limit of the torch’s power of illumination overhead. He heard an exclamation beside him, and there was Red Eric, holding something which be had just snatch- ed up, and which appeared to be the white thigh bone of some animal. It was not the only remnent of its kind to be seen, for as Hastings clanced down in the direction of the stone floor his eye Was attracted by quite a collection in that line, evi- dent!y the remains of many a feast on the part of some wild beast. As vet he failed to comprehend Why the cattle-punchers seemed so pleas- ed. In his eye the discovery of these bones indicated nothing pleasant— indeed, he felt a shiver pass over him at the thought that possibly their own remains might some day be found by similar bold explorers, per- haps a century hence, and most pro- found treatises be written based upon the mystery of their presence in that strange cavern leading from Old Kro- kato’s crater. “That settles it, nodding his head manner, Which served Rex more than ever. Fortunately the next words that were uttered served to throw a gieam of light over the mystery, and he was positively charmed to think he had not spoken and betrayed his dense ignorance of cowbay lore. “Well. if a beast could at some- time have had his den in this place, we ought to be able to discover which way he went in and out, and I’m very sure it wasn’t by the road | coming here,’ laughed >? remarked Jim, in a complacent to confound we took in Lord Bruno. As Rex remembered that tremen- dous climb to reach the shelf, he was ready to echo this declaration on the part of the artist rover, (To be Continued.)
