BRING YOUS TO T ADVERTISER . WHERE-IT WILL E They followed the old man, who held a candle aloft, and after a journey of perhaps a half hour came to a stop be fore an apparently solid wall of large stones. Eric recognized the great slab in the center as a door similar to the one Iklapel had opened when they had inspected the treasure vault. .They passed through and along the passage again until they came upon the treasnre house of Atzlan, filled to over flowing with the accumulated wealth of dead, forgotten nations.. Even old Listah lost his stoical reserve and burst into as tonished exclamations, while Jan-ila * walked around among the various an . cient. almost priceless relics with open eyed and open mouthed wonder. It was truly a remarkable spectacle. More wealth in gold and silver lay there un guarded, unheeded, than the banks of the entire world could command. Its introduction into the commerce of the United States would revolutionize all the markets on earthl Half-yes, one eighth-of it was a colossal fo-^nne; the wealth that Pizarro, Cortez ?ad their followers ravished from Peru and Mex ico was equaled and surpassed by this treasure. "It is the treasure of the gods," said Listah finally. "It belongs to them yes, and it belongs to Quetzalt" "lt is not for us at any rate," rejoined Jan-ila. "1 would not know what to do with it if I had it." "Nor 1," Listah replied, "but Quetzal knows. 1 would wager, and many won derful things he could make for us. For me one good ax or knife of his wondrous new metal that he calls iron is worth all this great pile." There was a strong fascination in Lhe hoard to Eric. He felt a sort of miserly greed creep over him as his eyes roved over tho mass; the old vases full of gold dust, strangely shaped utensils and fur niture, meaningless trappings of all sorts, shapes and sizes aroused his anti quarian interest and his cupidity at the same time, for there were fortunes in single objects lying thero upon the tiled pavement; relics of the prehistoric past that nations would vie with one another to secure-not for their intrinsic value alone, but for their ethnological interest. A great golden calendar, a circular disk, with strange obsolete characters all over its surface, lay against the wall. What a prize for a museum I And he noticed several figures of animals, well modeled in gold, and among them stood a regal elephant with greatly curved tusks. He looked sharply at it, and as he stared ho realized that it was a model . in miniature of the extihet mammoth 1 "There are pictures of them in the sacred books," said Jan-ila when Eric ' 3 had pointed out rbis wonder, "for Ihave seen them often. The pictures show men spearing them and being trampled under feet by these same monsters." They lost no more time, but started at once for the chamber under the temple, for Eric remembered well the way now, and they reached it in a few minutes. Noiselessly they entered it, and the two priests reverently, for both had been there before on solemn occasions. This room held the ark of the Atzlan faith, Quetzalcoatl's vessel, and it was a sacred apartment, into which none but priests ever ventured. Listah extinguished the candle as soon as they were fairly in the cellarlike chamber. A few narrow shafts of light shot through the crevices, but they could see that the light was dim and that darkness was rapidly approach ing. They heard footsteps upon the light flooring above, but they ceased a moment later. They waited a full hour in deep si lence and almost complete darkness; then Eric reached out and touching Jan-ila upon the shoulder drew him close and whispered: "You go up the ladder and lift the trapdoor silently and carefully. If no one is in sight, slip out into the room and then outdoors to find Iklapel. If he is there, call him softly and tell bim we are here, ready to act. Be very careful, my boy, and don't get nervous," Without answering Jan-ila quickly mounted the ladder, and after a mo ment's pause cautiously and almost im perceptibly opened the trapdoor. They saw him disappear through it, and it was closed softly. An hour elapsed, and then Eric went np, and lifting the trapdoor peered out, A dark form, and one which he did not recognize, sat in the doorway motion less. Its back was toward bim, He raised tho door higher; he could see no body in the room. While he stood there wondering, looking upward he eaw the opening in the floor above fill up with a dark object, and he quickly closed the trapdoor and held his head close under it to listen. Not a sound reached him, but after a long interval he felt the door move. He drew away from it and de scended the ladder. A pair of legs ap peared, and then the form of Jan-ila, who closed the door after him. He had caused no more noise than a serpent in all this time. Grasping Eric'j hand he whispered: : "Iklapel was upon the roof, and I went to him; 1 could have escaped down the outside pathway, but I wis'ued to return to you, for you will need me. Aza the Sleepy One guards Iklar-el; Kulcan is confined in Chalpa's house, and Iklapel fears that they will prevail upon him to side with Chalpa after all. The people are greatly excited and ready for almost anything. Kulcan's attitude will influ ence very many, and 1 think it well to inform him of your safety. Aza could be influenced, I believe, to come over to us and carry word to Kulcan, for he Kulcan-will never weaken if he knows you are alive. What thinks my wise master?" ! Eric pondered awhile; he knew Kul can'3 weakness and shared ?lapel's fear, yet he dared not depend upon Aza, a tool of Chalpa's, a?id one who might betray them. He knew that the ele ment of surprise would be the greatest factor in the next day's work, and he desired most of all that Chalpa should remain in ignorance of his escape until tho last moment. Many plans came to him. At first the thought of send- ? ing Listah or Jan-ila to Chalpa under j pretense of submission came into his , mind, but he feared to lose the services ( HE .JOB OFFICE, IE DONE CHEAP. /fsa ?r^^^Busw^r this crisis... Other plana as weak presented themselves, were ena missed, and then he thought of Lela. He rapidly scanned his chances of get ting to her. Jan-ila informed him that she was in charge of several old women, the chief among them being old Bari, Listah's wife, and by her help he fan cied he could obtain access to his be trothed. The plan perfected, the next thing was to act After unfolding his scheme to the oth ers he exchu.iged garments with Jam-ila and rn ?J be J Mirth upon his face to darken his complexion, and.buckling his re volver upon him ascended the ladder. Aza still Rat motionless, probably in a sound sleep, in the doorway, but he cau tiously ana siienuy ciosea tne aoot ?ITO as noiselessly climbed the next ladder. There were three stories to the temple, each with its ladder, which creaked un iter bis weight as he climbed them. On the top, at the sacred space wherein stood the temple, he saw Iklapel standing mo tionless. The old priest seemed lost in meditation, but he beard the sound of an approaching visitor and yet turned not until Eric laid a hand upon his shoulder. Then he started, for he recog nized Eric, and grasping his hand cried: "Ah, my brotherl It gives me strength and hope to see yon, although I knew you were safe." "Yes, Bafe, dear friend, and we will crush this rattlesnake, Cbalpa, forever ere tomorrow's sun sets. 1 am going to send word to Kulcan to be firm and yield nothing to Chalpa, and I think we are going to come out victors even more easily than you expect. Chalpa is the one man we need bother about. When he is out of the way the rest may be managed. But, old friend, you must take some rest, for you will need your strength tomorrow. It is now late." "Yes, it grows late; but, see, the peo ple crowd outdoors: they will not go to their beds; they cannot sleep." "All the better. I can pass among them unnoticed, for I am going to Lela to send her to Kulcan." "It is a dangerous errand," said Ik lapel. "Not very. Even were 1 recognized 1 ion't think any man would stop me; 1 carry many lives in my hand, Iklapel, And they know it. But go to bed and sleep, for we are safe." ? He went down the broad, graded de scent and reached the ground unob served. There.was nobody near the tem ple; the priests were busy preparing for the festival on the morrow or about to seek rest. Farther on the people Bat in groups about their doors or upon tte lower range of roofs. Those among whom he passed glanced at bim, but Jan-ila's blanket was close np about his ears, and they did not recognize Mm. He reached Lela's door and saw that alight burned within; he halted, at a loss how to summon Bari forth, but at that mo ment Eltza, now a large girl, came from the spring with a jar of water upon her head, and was about to enter the house when he stopped her. "Maiden, is Bari, the wife of Listah, within?" "Yes," she answered, looking sharply at him, but not knowing him, for his face was strange to her and dark. "Tell her, child, that one is here with a message from Listah, who would see her at once." She went in, and in a moment old Bari came ont. liiere was a pale crescent moon low in the sky, and its light fell upon her face as she looked at him with a frightened gaze. He held up a warn ing finger as he stooped to hide his height. "Bari, do not speak; I come from Lis tah to ask you whether you are still his wife and friend or ChalpaV. slaver "Why, what mean you?" she ex claimed. "1 saw my husband today; he need send me no such message. 1 do his bidding and no other's." "But you guard Lela, who is Chalpa's victim, the sacrifice to the god!" "Aye, but Listah did not forbid me, and it is my duty." "But, think you, would Quetzal like to see you preparing his bride for death?" "He hau gone and left her-his she wac, and he will protect her. I do no wrong in thinking it" "Yes, he will protect her, and yon shall help him," he said, standing up be fore her and revealing his face. "Do not start-1 am Quetzal. I have re turned, but it must not be known until tomorrow. This you must do. Tell her privately that she must ask Chalpa to permit her to have one last conversation with Kulcan before she dies. She must go to Chalpa's house, where her brother is confined, and tell him I am here and will smite the rattlesnake tomorrow. Tell him to yield not, nor be discour aged, for he will be safe." "Kulcan is not at Chalpa's house," said Bari. "The priest has taken him to your dwelling, out beyond the city, and is with him there, for he says he will occupy that house himself here after." "The deuce he has!" ejaculated Eric. "That is cooli Very well, she must go there at once. Some of your women can attend her, of course, and conduct her home on her return. But there is no time to waste; she must go immediate ly; hasten now, but be cautious." Before she could reach the door it opened, and Lela came forth. Going straight to Eric, she threw her arms about his neck and said: "My own I Something told me yon were here. Blessed, true heart, to come to me when I needed you sol" He kissed her many times, hushing her voice thus, anc* *hen said: "You must go back at once. If you are seen here it will min alL Bari will tell you for what I came, and tomorrow all the trouble will be ended. Have pa tience and courage, my darling. Go into the house now, dear, at once." She obeyed silently. With one long fond look she entered the house. Old Bari followed her and closed the door behind her. CHAPTER XIX IN THE HOUR OP NEED. He stood there for a moment looking at the door, and then moved away, fora aproup of people was approaching, and he dished to evade them. The city gate eadinir to. the orchards and to his own, house waa nigh, and ne went out mw tne fields. After walking awhile he came to his mill, silent and dark by the riverside, and then he thought that he would go beyond and to Vis own dwelling and see if he could spy out anything there. This scouting savored so much of the roman tic and perilous that it was fascinating. It brought back his boyhood's dreams to ht rn and filled him with a queer sort of dime novel heroism that was positively thrilling. It was within two hours of midnight The moon, which was in its last quarter, hung almost over the horizon in the far end of the canyon; the air was so still that the soft murmur of the river came clear to his ears as he stood in the shad ow of the trees and looked toward his dwelling. Suddenly the silence was gently stirred-not broken-by what seemed to him as he listened, with a 1 stilled pulse, the faintest, most distant ohorus of voices. He seized a long iron knife. As a dream it seemed to come to him from some faroff desert space, like voices of the stars. Yet he surely heard it, faint, but clear, the air of "Annie Laurie," sung by male voices in unison, and it seemed the sweetest sound he hod ever heard. It was for but a few mo ments that it was audible; then it sank away in the deepest silence, and he heard his heart's loud h "tung. He looked up at the silent stars and caught his breath. What madness was this? Had he truly heard the voices, or were the sounds but ome fantasy born of the hour and the night? After a little reflection he arrived at the conclusion that what he had fancied he heard was but the result of mo mentary mental derangement, superin duced by the recent physical strain to which he had been subjected. It could have no other explanation, and he re solved to be careful in the future. His reflections were interrupted by the ap proach of people and the sound of female voices. He sank deeper into the shadow of the trees, and hurried to a position where he could command a view of his own house and see all that occurred. The group approached, and he saw that it was Lela and three of her women. She had been talking gayly to them, but low ered her voice as she neared the dwell ing, where she expected to find Chai pa. But Chalpa had heard their voices and came out' to meet them, holding aloft one of Eric's candles. The light fell on his swarthy face, showing a look of fierce, triomphant joy; in the shadow of his brows his black eyes flashed like those of a snake. He was plainly sur prised at his victim's visit, and also at her easy manner, so at variance with that of the last two days, and Eric could see that he was wondering what errand had brought her there. As they neared the door he stepped toward them, say ing: ..This is a strange hour for a maiden to be abroad. What seeks my sister here?" . 'I come to beg one favor of you before I die," answered Lela, throwing into her voice all the pleading, plaintive tones sh? could command. "Let me see my brother and speak to him for but a little moment! 1 cannot go without bidding him farewell. I would see him alone, for tomorrow I cannot see him. I am re signed-1 will go to my doom quietly, willingly if I can see him just once morel" 'Yes, you shall see him," he said. "'Tis but a little thing you ask. Tell me, can I not grant a greater boon?" "I ask nothing-nothing but to speak to Kulcan. " "Zn ter, then," he said, standing aside; "your women shall wait here. No, they shall' return. Go," he continued, turn ing to them; "return to the city. I will bring Lela to you when she is ready." Lela had entered the house, and the women, after a single glance at Chai pa's face, quickly departed. He stood for a little time looking after them, and then followed his victim indoors. She had already, in a few words, delivered her message, and when Chalpa's stealthy footfall came to her ears she was caress ing her brother and bidding him be com forted. It was hard for Kui can to con ceal the joy and hope that filled him and brightened his face, but fortunately Chalpa, now bent upon another scheme, noticed nothing; he was delighted at the tura affairs had taken, and now that Lela was so completely in his power his thoughts had taken a new turn. After standing silent in the center of the large room-from Which he could see the two-for some minutes, he ap proached them. Kulcan, his arms bound by thongs, raised his eyes, and Lela turned toward the crafty priest as he spoke: "My brother and sister, I like not these harsh, uncustomary measures which we had to adopt. Methinks no other Katun feast has been so marred; it is an ill thing when those so young as you show a spirit so strangely bent against our ancient practices. Yet 'eis because you are both young and headstrong. Lela, it seems, has at last become resigned to the will of Kinchahan, and will go cheerfully to Chalcu's dreaded altar; but you, Kulcan, you still are headstrong and perverse. Yet, as I love you both, I would fain hold out some hope." "What hope is there now?' cried Kul can defiantly, all his strength and spirit returning to him now that ne knew Eric lived. "No hope for you or your sister if you maintain that spirit of disdain," Chalpa answered; "but there is hope," he con tinued after a pause, "if you will do my will. I love you both right well. If I did not you would have shared the fate of-that is, you would not be here now to know my clemency and tenderness at this late hour." "Brother," interrupted Lela as he was about to answer, her soft voice full of pleading, "listen and be not rebellious. Chalpa holds out a hope to us. Let us hear him." "Yes, I hold out hope and safety for you both," Chalpa said somewhat eager ly. "I do not desire your blood-I can avert your doom if you will do my will. Obey mo and you both are saved, for be lieve me, before tho sun sets tomorrow the thirty priests will have not only your sister's but your blood poured out upou the altar." "Oh, horrible!" cried Lela, covering her face. "Spare him, Chalpa! Tukt my life, but let not his blood be shed. Remember he is the last of our family." "I remember it ow?y too well," an swered Chal?n. ITO BE CONTINUED.! ! r1 o o M H ?D We will save you money if you will give us your Note Heads, Bill Heads, Envelopes, Letter Heads, Cards, all kinds.
