Hubert hesitated, giving a. brief thought to Miriam, his loved and waiting Miriam! His face then glowed with a heroic light, and he said, iu tones that did not falter "I will go in search of the men, Lieutenant Brydges. Only, your party is now small, and il 1 do not return in twenty minutes, you may resume your journey." "But, Earle," expostulated the lieutenant, "this is positive madness. You must not risk your lite. ^Ye will wait awhile, and if the men do not return, Ave will move on "They may need help," replied Hubert, steadily. "The}" may have encountered—well, God knows what, I can't imagine. If I lire my rifile, come to me. If I fail to return within the time appointed, move on
He went up to the nearest fire, picked up a blazing stick, arranged his rifle for instant use, approached the mouth of the cave, peered into it cautiously, and listened intently for some sound of life within.
No sound came. All was as still as death within the cavern. The next instant Hubert had van ished therein.
All was now breathless suspense. The lieutenant and his men gathered around to listen for the report of the rifle. The minutes passed, but it came not. Five minutes dragged by—ten—fifteen, and still no sound reached their ears. They could see a brief space into the cavern, by thei light of their own torches, but noth-, ing but rocky walls and floor met) their gaze.

around his waist and descend into
the sinister abyss, luit his men objected unanimously. "What's the use V" asked one. '•There's something here that- no mortal man can conquer/' '•We can't risk your life, lien tenant." said another. Just think how
iew there are of us."
The time continued to drag on. At last, when two full mortal hours had passed, Lieut. Brydges staggered to his feet, and said "This is horrible—terrible bevond expression! We have lost our comrades and this noble young stranger, whom I loved as a brother. This fearful cave must hold the secret of their fate, be it what it may. Let us go."
