CHAPTER IX—Continued. v—l 2— But the sense of riding beside her across the free desert transported him to the seventh heaven of happiness. The Hottentot had disappeared; they wire alone; he that within an hour he would have solved the mystery and proved it nothing. Yet even then he was vaguely, conscious that something ,In his brain ; checked the 'impulses of his heart, warning him, counseling prudence, questioning even his love. The girl nothing, and Winton did not brehk the silence. The miles were reeled off behind them; Winton did not know how long they traveled, hut It was not yet dawn when the desert began to glva place to a range nt broken hills. They ascended a defile betwen two boulder-strewn elevations. Now the character of the country bad changed. Imperceptibly the desert fell away- There was green grass underfoot, an occasional cactus raised its spiny Joints among the rocks, here and there were clusters of acacias. A man baboon barked at them from among the rocks. In challenge of their invasion of his domain, hurled a stone at them, and fled scrambling Into his cave. Though no life was in evidence, there was that indefinite stirring around them that betokens the preparations for day. A breeze came upj then a line of amber appeared under the cloud banka in the east. Dawn was at hand as they rode Into the broken hills. Their horses climbed steep slopes, dislodging showers of stones, then began to descend Into a fertile valley. In the distance Winton could see a duster of beehive huts, the headquarters of the native tribe. And still neither he nor Shelia bad spoken. The Hottvntot who had set off afoot had arrived before them. He appeared out of a cleft in the mountains and Indicated to Winton that he was to dismount. Winton and Sheila ascended a little slope afoot, toward the village. In the center was a clearing, already occupied by a number of natives. They were naked, except for their loin cloths, and carried long throwing epears .and white ox-hide shields. As the two approached the chattering teased. Winton perceived in the middle of them a very old woman, wearing the waist doth and a gaudily-colored blanket over her shoulders. Tb» natives sprang to their feet as Sheila drew near and uttered a deepvoiced salutation. She spoke a few words, and silently they filed away into the huts. The old woman, Winton, and Sheila were alone in front of a smoldering flrri The aged vZonian raise*? her eyes and fixed riiem on Winton’s face. Winton looked at her intently. She waa not unprepossessing, and he could tee now that, like mast of her race, she had aged more quickly than the years of a white woman would have srarranted. Perhaps she was about sixty. Her skin was the color of a dark European’s, sunburned rather than pigmented. and the features were regular; the eyes lacked the semioblique setting of the Hottentot’s. It was clear that she had a considerable, perhaps a preponderating proportion of Causnsian blood. Sheila turned to Winton, and. in H*lte of his minimizing of her promtoad revelation he felt a chill at his •eart at the right of her face. "This to my mother." she said, and. •ending, kissed the old woman. BTlnton stood perfectly stlih The Revelation had stdnned him. As in a gream he looked Into the old creature’s wrinkled face, conscious of Sheila’s •tyes fixed on his own. A bird broke tato song; the tops of the mountains were silhouetted against the red of the rity; nothing seemed to stir, and the bird went on ringing. Sheila beckoned to Winton, and he followed her to the summit of the elevation. They were quite alone, lookin* down ogff the ring of native huts, gnd the doll-like figure of the old queen of thb tribe, who had not stirred. Evidently ahe had not understood what Sheila had said. Sheila faced Winton calmly. ”It Is your doing." she said quietly. "I wanted you to leave me. Yes. I am the daughter of a white man and a half-breed native woman. •After my father ran away from chUlzatlon, fearing capture by the police. he made his way Into thaae territories.

tribe. The natives would not let him leqd them in battle. They set too high a value on his counsel. he governed them wisely. There Is no man from one end of the country to the other who does not know ‘King’ Seaton. “When I was six years old my fa- ■ ther thought that the danger of pur- j suit was over. He planned to take me ; away, so that I might be brought up ! among his people. He thought I would forget my birth. He thought that he would give me what he conridered to i be my rightful heritage. He stole | away by night, abandoning my mother. . The tribe would not have let him go. “But he found that it was not easy to rink his Identity. He changed his name, but in vain. Wherever tie went natives recognized him and told their masters. He had to flee constantly. , Mr. De Witt knew his secret. He > wanted to make use of him In some dishonest work for which only my fa- j ther could help him. My father yielded to his threats, and thereafter De Witt hounded him. “At last my father went back to bis tribe, to find that my mother had succeeded to the leadership. He was already an outcast • among ttje whites; now he became an outcast among the blacks also. The tribe respected him, but they feared him, they thought he was a governinejit agent; they never trusted him. He had become the loneliest man in the whole world. “And as for me, the memory of those early years was stamped indelibly upori my mind. I looked at men and things from the native’s point of view. I. too. was known as one of native blood. People pitied me, derided me, but none held out a helping hand/ and never, until you honored me tn the coach had any man recognized that I might have the instincts of the white woman—some of them. Perhaps, If you had known you would have felt the same as they did.” “No, Sheila,” answered Winton. “I wanted you not to know. Hal It ever occurred to you that a simple word from a stranger may change the entire course of our Ilves? You helped me when I had come to despair. Your kindness meant more to me than yon can possibly recognize. For I will speak plainly to you now that at last you understand the fatuity of your course. “When Mr. De Witt became infatuated with roe I knew that he had a wife downcountry whom he had abandoned. And he knew that 1 knew it He did not deceive me. It had never entered! his mind that I could expect him to marry a woman with native blood. He had sworn to me that if I went away with him his persecution of my father should stop. There wns nothing in his conduct toward me that might not have been done by any man in Malopo. No blame would have attached Itself to him in Malopo’s eyes. “I told him that I was willing to sacrifice myself for my father’s sake. Why not? I am a native woman; why should I obey the law of the whites when I am a thing shunned and despised?” “Sheila!" cried Winton hoarsely. “Yes, despised," she repeated, flinging out ti|e words defiantly. “As you despise me now.” “You are wrong. Sheila. You have suffere<L not through peoples contempt. but because the world to thoughtless." She laughed contemptuously. "Never mind the world,” she answered. -Listen to one thing, and be proud of it if you care to be. Before I met you, when life seemed hopeless, I had resolved to yield to De Witt to save my father’s life, which is in his power. You saved me. I wm going with him that night, but I know that there was murder in my heart. I was going to kill him. You showed me the better way; taught me to honor myself, even at the cost of my father’s life if need he.” “Sheila. I honor you for what you have t<dd me." said Winton. "I understand what you have suffered. I do not pity you. I admire your courage." “Year she answered, with an ironic inflection tn her voice. “Perhaps you will tell me that you still love mer “I love you. Sheila, M I have done from the first I” he cried. “And would still ask me to be your wtfer she persisted relentlessly. .Winton was silent. He knew now that the Inexorable law of the race is founded, not on prejudice but upon some Interior prompting that may be called divine. Tn spite of the spell that the girl exercised over him he i shrank from the Idea. And the thought of hto own ostracism that must follow bad the least part in hto abhorrence. Shelia laughed, and Winton cried out. stung to the quick: “I am ready to- marry’ you, Sheila. And 1 will take you away from Malopo; I will take you to America, where none will ever guess at the truth.” “You propose too high an honor for me,” answered the girl ironically. But then, her bitter mood softened by the vehemence of bis word*, she went to him and put her hands on hto shoulders with the old gesture. Her face was very tender. “No, my dear." she answered. "I have made you suffer in my outraged pride; I have brought sorrow upon yon lb return for the kindnees you havo shown me But I would never do you •♦Wl* w w - •*Tfe* race bar *

"Or are we, each one ot us. custodians of the race? You, at least, have your duty to the generation that to to follow yours. “In the years to come you will thank me. If you cannot now. Good-by; and believe that, if my heart were not warped and twisted, it would be yours, though I could never be.” Os a sudden the sun’s rim burst above the valley, turning it into a glow of gold. The lengthy shadows of the mountains swept it from end to end. In the huts beneath them there was a stirring. Women, their straight bodies as graceful as Greek statues, carrying water pitchers made from wild gourds upon their heads In classic guise, began ; to walk in single file along the path down to the spring. Winton saw a ►group of warriors standing, and looking up at them. ”T have one more word to say." Sheila added. “The tribesmen are dissatisfied about their lands, as you must | know. There have been rumors of a , ! rebellion. They are well founded. The I ; meeting lest night was to discuss the i chances of an uprising. I know no i more. But warn Malopo. This is the ; last service that I can do for those who are no longer my people.” She turned began to descend the slope Winton stood watching her until she had mingled with the throng of savages below. Then only did he seem to wake from the dream that had taken j possession of him since the moment of their encounter In the desert. | He shuddered and, sick and broken, tore himself with almost a physical ' effort and set his face toward the j desert. Only that obscure race duty which is ' never awakened in the vast majority of men prevented him from obeying his impulse to follow her into the native village and do what Seaton had done. In spite of Sheila’s vehemence Winton ; believed that he could overcome her scruples. He felt that she loved him, j or rather, that there was, beneath her J moods, beneath her hardness, a spring of love, loyal and Inexhaustible. Presently Winton perceived the Hottentot whom he had encountered in ‘Mi; father became a _ v native chief the desert. The man came up to him and indicated by signs that it was bls mission to guide him out of the mountains. ' Winton followed him, not along the route by which they had come, but along a defile In the hills, which led, apparently, in the opposite direction, though, after many, twistings, it finally turned southward. The desert appeared again. Winton colfld s.-e the vast, dead waste, which was so appropriate to his heart, ex- ' tended, flat and like a frozen sea, | toward the horizon. An indeterminate , green UnF showed where the fertile i valley ended. A ridge of cactus trees, ; which stood out upon the very verge I of the sand, formed a sort of palisade. The land was abiase with sunlight. | Wintdb stopped at the edge of the ; looked back. The mounSheila, holding her agWst him securely, had drawn to i gether. Nothing living seemed to stir * among those clefts and peaks. Yet, as Winton’s eyes wandered upward they fixed rhe in selves upon one living dhtng. on the very summit of the 'highest peak of ah. which overhung. | the plain. It was the nude form of • ; black sentinel, armed with spear and I ox-hide targe. With the superb gesture of a dis- • cobolus the man hurled the spear, straight as an arrow, toward the sun.

its scorching rays upon the sand, from which the reflected heat-waves beat upward, swathing the rider as if In a steaming shroud. Winton could hardly keep hto seat. He frit dtoqy and weak from the blow, from the lone night ride, and from -the shock at Sheila’s revelation. They had traveled perhaps a third of the distance to Malopo when be reined In hto horse and slid from the saddle Into the sand. He could go no further. And he lay down, staring up at the sky without any especial interest in anything. He watched the Hottentot turn and come back toward him. The man’s clicking interrogations meaning for him. The Hottetftot drew off a few paces and seemed to be meditating. Then he kneeled down beside Winton and went through his pockets. He took his watch and purse, opened the latter, found several sovereigns in it. and transferred them to his own pocket. He stood over Winton, swinging his knobkerrie meditatively. Winton watched him. still without the least interest in what he was going |to do. The native was evidently poni dering whether to bring the knob of the heavy stick, down upon his skull and end his life, or to leave him to die in the desert. Presently prudence conquered. a succession of grunts and clicks he mounted th»horse, thrust his feet far into the stirrups, and set out across the desert. Winton, lying on the sand, watched : him until he was swallowed up in tin dancing heat-waves. Cnee he reap peared, a gigantic figure, outlined In mirage upon the sky above the hortzon. Then he vanished, and in place of him appeared the corrugated iron roofs of a town. Winton struggled into a sitting pos tore. Surely that was Malopo, ‘ and surely it was very near. He saw the busy market square, and th; great white-capped ox-wagons, drawn by their spans of long horns, moving i through the dust whirls. , He must reach Malopo. It vomu • not be many miles away. And the awful thirst that was consuming him brought him to his feet and sent him staggering toward pictured town He stumbled through the dust, his eyes taking in the scene avidly. He was searching for the location of the Continental across the busy sqmne. All his material aims had dwindled to a pitcher of cold water and a dark place in which to sleep. Suddenly he stopped in constema tion. Across the scene he saw a train moving. Puffs of white smoke came from the engine. The train stopped, the engine, detached, went on alone, puffing into the void, and disappeared. Then Winton recognized this vision. It was not Malopo, but Taungs. And even as he looked It vanished and the scorched desert lay before him. An 1 far away, against the horizon, he saw the tiny speck that was the Hottentot on his horse, riding away. Winton looked wildly about him. Far away were the outlines of the hills that sheltered Sheila. A desperate longing came over him to return, seek her, gain her, and dwell there an outlaw, as Seaton had done. He turned. Then, far across the sands, there sprang suddenly into view a lake, set among green pastures, with trees about it, and a farmhouse. A cool breath from the water seemed to reach him across the desert. He began to stagger toward this new vision, with his arms outstretched. Although his brain told him that this, too, was a mirage, he could not but follow the lure. And, believing against belief that he might actually be nearing it, he fought his way onward, as if the desert were a physical enemy to be overcome, stumbling and falling, and rising again. His tongue clove to the roof of*his mouth, and the blood in his veins seemed to have turned to vitriol. He was down again and could not rise. He looked up at the vision on the horizon and shook his fist furiously. He knew that he was beaten, that death awaited him: but he would die fighting. Everything that had happened to him since be reached Malopo seemed like this: illusion, golden pr«»s;»ects, prospects In love, in business. toward which be had groped in blind trustfulness, while in reality through an arid desert of ' Ja'iure. He sank down, bur in his delirium he was still running across the sands, seeking an unattainable haven: then absolute unconsciousness enveloped him. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Horae* Liked Smudge*.
