SWAMI RAM’S REINCARNATION By FRANK BLIGHTON

CHAPTER Vl.—Continued. Williams seized the ringed key from the guard’s inert fingers and thrust it into the lock. The last barrier swung Inward, the soft breeze of the refulgent night kissed his feverish face, and he was blotted out by its protecting curtain. Julisingrao Jitendra squatted in the corner of the cell from which the American had so miraculously been released. and bent over the prostrate figure of the Mexican who had been on guard in the corridor. 1 . Back and forth on the breast of the soldier, who lay rigidly upon his back, swayed two sinister, menacing points of crimson, and in perfect unison swayed also two others upon the head of the Hindu. “Wouldst thou have life?” sternly demanded the little brown man of the prostrate figure. “Si, senor!” “Then heed well what I shall say,” went on the other In cold, precise accents. “If they wake to find Sahib Buck gone. thou, instead of he, will die. So, thou too must depart.” He leaned closer to the man, whose face wus distorted with a hideous terror. As the Mexican comprehended the half-friendly attitude of the Hindu, hope struggled with despair in his eyes. “Tell me. Is It true that I, too. am to die with the coining of the sun?” The Mexican nodded. “But that, senor, Is not of my doing, nor is it in my power to save you—unless you flee with El Americano.” “We shall see,” crisply returned the Oriental. “Where is it that the killers of men will work their evil powers upon me if I remain?” “In the yard of the carcel, senor. They will tell you to go. that you are free, and then as you near the gate to pass through it they will fire at your back.” Jitendra pondered a moment, his head inclined a little forward. He was debating what course to pursue. If he attempted to flee now out into the night- in this unknown country, his swollen feet would be a terrible handicap. Even with a horse he would almost certainly be ‘seen, overtaken und shot by the soldiers who swarmed through the province of Sinaloa. Beside, Sahib Buck must have ample time to reach his friends, else what he had done for his preserver would count for nothing. “Where will the men stand to stay' one who bears them no malice?” he queried. “Does the senor remember how the carcel yard looks?” “Somewhat.” “The passage through which you were brought to this cell leads to the carcel yard. Directly across on the other side is the gate to the street. The soldiers- —” “How many?” “Six, senor, and a corporal, make up the firing squad. These will take you to the yard. You will be told that 1 * any reasonable request of yours will be granted. It may also be made to appear that you are free to depart. But, if so, be not deceived. You will never pass the gate alive. “Behind, hear the edge of the yard, close* to the building and directly over an old drain, the six will stand with rifles ready. As you near the gate you will die by their shots* I have spoken truth, senor, I swear it by the saints.” “What is this drain?—l do not understand.” “A very old, large, round pipe, senor, once used to carry off waste, but now abandoned. You may see the end above the ground on the way to the gate. It is not far from the carcel Itself where it comes up through the ground, from there it runs along the yard beneath where the soldiers stand. Senor, I swear I have told you all — will you now not take from me this strange, hideous monster with the flaming eyes, ere I die?” “One more thing must I know,” icily replied the Hindu. “If I should ask of the corporal a cigarette—what then?” “The officer in command would give it to you.” “Now, listen with care to my words —for on them hang life or death for thee,” venomously hissed Jitendra, beDding so low th'at his lips almost touched those of the other man. “I shall ask for that cigarette when I start for the gate. And, if I am given it not —well, it were better for thee that thou wert never born. If I receive it, and thou also obey me in what I shall now require of thee —it shall be life and joy to thee in the years to come. Heed well, therefore, and fail not to obey me in all I shall command of thee.” He whispered a few words in the ear of the prostrate figure. “That is all,” he observed. “I understand, senor. By the blessed saints, I swear to do as you have asked. Now, may I depart?” Slowly Jitendra arose and stood before the door. The angry, crimson orbs' above the breast of the soldier vanished, to reappear near the other two above the Hindu’s turban. “All men are brothers and thou art mine,” resumed Jitendra. “To kill is sin. Therefore, and because thou hast promised.to do as I have commanded, I bind upon thee the sacred symbols of Vishnu and Siva —that no harm may hereafter come to thee. Loose thy shirt” The quivering Mexican obeyed. Something cold, clammy, and unspeakably repugnant wrapped itself around him. “Thus does Siva enfold thee,” went on the Oriental. “Never again canst thou offend the gods by causing the death of any living thing.” His lithe arm flung Itself out In the darkness.

(Copyright.) and again the shuddering Mexican experienced the sublimity of horror as his hot blood raced through his icy body. “With Vishnu, too. do I crown thee, brother. Now, if thou do but keep thy promise all will be well with thee. But” —Jitendra paused significantly — “of this also be assured. If I die at sunrise because thou hast lied, the | gods Vishnu and Siva die not with me, but live on forever. Whither thou goest, even if it were to the ends of the earth, there Vishnu .will pursue thee — and Siva, too. will seek thee out!” CHAPTER VII. Jitendra Disappears. His excellency, Governor General Juan Moreno, scowled blackly into the sleep-heavy countenance of Herbert Hardinge. The two sat in the temporary official headquarters of the provisional government of Sinaloa. It was a little before dawn. “Your bird lias flown, senor” he tefseiy observed. “What do you mean?” Hardinge’s dismayed face grew gray beneath its reddish tan. Moreno shrugged his shoulders. “I have the honor to ififorin you,” punctllliously sneered the insurrecto, “thut Senor Williams escaped from his cell some time tonight and is still at large. I have given orders that he shall he brought In. dead or alive. My men are searching everywhere for him. We learned of It an hour ago, when the officer of the night changed the guards at the prison.” "Why—it’s impossible!” gasped ; Hardinge. “How did he manage to do it?” “We do not know. The sentry at the gate was found with his skull crushed and the gate open. Williams was gone. The guard who was on duty in the corridor, and who was personally responsible for the security of the prisoners, is under suspicion, but he cannot be found.” “Did the other prisoner escape also —the one claiming to be a subject ?” “No. I do not understand why. We found him asleep in the cell. He answers no questions. He will be executed at sunrise, und Williams will be shot wherever found —those- are my orders.” Hardinge nodded uneasily. The escape was a thing he had not counted upon. With El Tigre’s owner "aFlarge, his plans" for. seizing the mine might not be so easily carried out. The American government might make representations to Great Britain or Mexico, through diplomatic channels. Hardinge’s position, in that event, would be far from enviable. The little brown man who had been ■in the ceil during his interview with Williams a few hours before might also prove to be an awkward stumbling block. With him gone, there would at least be no | confirmatory witness to his threats. Hardinge rose from his chair. The first faint shimmer of the dawn was glinting the tops of the hills in the east. The time for the execution was near, and the Englishman determined to observe the removal of, at least, one possible impediment to bis future schemes. “Five million dollars is too big a stake to take any more chances of losing,” he muttered as he reached the jail gate. “I might have known that a resolute fighter like Williams would be up to some trick—probably he promised that guard enough pesos to make him rich. If I’d been at all clever I would have seen this thing through myself, even if I had to walk that foulsmelling corridor all night to make sure.” He slipped into the jail yard, heedless of the glorious beauty of the new day, just in time to see the frail figure of the Hindu as he emerged from the building. Jitendra was curiously calm —the face of Buddha himself could not have been more inscrutable, nor unmoved by fear. He chanted something in a low, clear tone as he passed Hardinge without a look of recognition. The agent for the United Kingdom Exploration company shivered. There was a quality In the timbre of that voice suggesting a mysterious, malign presence—a sense of something hovering over and around the place of death, invisible but nevertheless, very real. The words, too, were disquieting. If the red slayer think he slays. Or if the slain think he is slain. They little know the subtle ways I keep, and pass, and turn again. Jitendra paused, waiting meekly for directions. The corporal in command of tha squad pointed toward the wall. “Your sentence has been set aside, senor. There is the path to the street.” The prisoner had not been bound. As the gate of the jail yard swung Invitingly open the leering soldiers parted their ranks, resting their rifles on the ground—assuming an air of careless indifference, but, nevertheless, covertly watching the man. “They’re going to give him la ley fuega,” shivered Hardinge. “I guess Moreno’s got cold feet on his courtmartial sentence—don’t want to take chances officially. I wish I hadn’t told him yesterday that this fellow claimed to be a British subject. If he should prove a good sprinter and they should miss—” ~ He chilled and broke off. Jitendra stepped lightly and Without emotion toward the gate, flinging back over his shoulder the innocent smile of a pleased child. Hardinge heard the low command and saw a soldier start to raise his rifle. He turned away. A. formal execution, with a man de: fiantly facing the firing squad,"was not so unusual as to excite horror

when the condemned was a native. But this was the epitome of betrayal —the deliberate, cowardly assassination of a man who has been told that he is free to depart, only to fall, bulletshattered from behind, at the wery verge of his coveted freedom. La ley fuega is truly Mexican. “Will you give me a cigarette, sar?" Hardinge whirled. Jitendra was retracing his steps toward the corporal in command. Murder is murder —but, even In Mexico, It is hard for a murderer to shoot down a pitiful, gaunt, soft-eyed, unsuspecting atom of humanity while appealing to him for a last solace. The officer sheepishly passed over the materials. Jitendra dexterously rolled the golden-brown tobacco in the wrapper, and, still smiling, reached for the match which was tendered him. He bowed his thanks and again walked firmly toward the gate. A few feet further on he stooped to ignite the match on the end of the old drain where it projected above the ground. Crouching low. he sheltered the flame with his cupped hands. The blazing remnant he dropped into the hole. He rose, facing the impatient soldiers, puffing vigorously, then turned and walked a step or two further in the direction of the entrance, still some distance away, which it was never intended he should reach alive. This time Hardinge knew there would he no delay in the death-dealing volley. A sound, curiously resembling a hiss, swept along beneath the surface of the ground, almost at the Englishman’s feet. It was not unlike the subdued “swish” of a rocket as it hurtles through the air, or the whisper of a serpent beneath a tuft of grass. The corporal had no time to recover from Ins surprise. Beneath his feet the earth suddenly upheaved, followed by a roar that mingled with the volley of the firing squad. (TO BE CONTINUED.) ANIMAL OF LOW MENTALITY Writer Asserts That Stories Crediting Elephant With High Intelligence Are Pure Fiction. The elephant is a mental pygmy, and his reputation for Intelligence is mere fiction, writes Richard L. Garner in the Forum. His sensibilities are dull and' all bis mental faculties slow and Irresolute. Almost every detail of the elephant’s conduct indicates an intelligence inferior to that of monkeya, baboons and carnivores. Native hunters usually use little dogs, wearing wooden bells, wfiile hunting elephants. The dogs can chase the huge beasts wherever they will without even barking at them, and the tinkling of the bell advises the hunter as to the beast’s location. A metal bell would alarm and stampede a whole herd of elephants, hence tie wooden bell. Hnnters track ah elephant until they find the elephant dozing, or else surprise him when he passes a certain section, driven by the dog. Sometimes they pour a lot of broken metal at him from an old flintlock gun, or else spear him. A single shot is rarely ever fatal, and hunters sometimes trail the beast for a week before finally killing him. No one man would ever think of taking such liberties with a wounded gorilla, chimpanzee or leopard. ° Beginning of Rubber Industry. One day, a little over 500 years ago. a Brazilian Indian noticed near his hut a tree doomed by a large hole that had been bored into its trunk. Great was his surprise, sometime later, to find, not only that the tree was flourishing as usual, but that the sap, a milky Juice, had coagulated and formed a solid gummy mass where the opening had been. Cutting off a chunk he found it malleable and well adapted to be used for many of the games which the natives played. Thus It was that Columbus, landing on the coast of Brazil on his second voyage to our hemisphere, found the Indians playing ball on the shore. Indeed, one of the discoveries of the expedition noted by Herrera was a “ball used by the Indians made from the gum of a tree” which was lighter and bounced better than the balls known at the time. The Indians soon found that the white man was glad to trade trinkets for “biscuits” of the sap, and so started the rubber IndustryCheerful, Happy SingeK The brown thrasher is a beautiful bird both in the coloring of his body and in his song. On the upper parts, that is on head and back, the bird is of a delicate and refined reddish brown, and below white with black spots. But it is the song of the bird that is particularly pleasing and musical. Unlike some other birds, he does not seem to care whether he Is being watched or not as he sits on the topmost branch of a tree in the meadow and pours forth his energetic and fervent song, which sounds as If he were telling the farmer to “hurry up, hurrry up; plow it, plow It; harrow it, harrow it; hoe It, hoe it;” and so on through a list of similar happy instructions.
