An electric light shot Its penetrating ,

i rock and running straight toward the j
Ursrt of the Teuton. The center of the '
gallery was occupied by a narrow railway. I
on which a few flat car* propelled by
electric power, passed to and fro. Black- |

hd. like flowing Iron, into a ayttem of

The financier* looked on wondering and
their astonishment grew when they were
conducted Into the rock-cut storeroom*
beneath, where they saw metallic Ingots
flowing like gigantic opals In the light
which Dr. Byx turned on They wrrn

Dr Byx was abb' to perform all that he

flowing from the furnace, and the piles
of ingots proved conclusively that hr had
uttered no vain boast when he sold he

But Pre* Boon, being himself n metal
lurgist. desired to tnspc t the mysterious
ore n little more closely. Possibly he wa
thinking that If another mine was destined
to be discover*! he might aw well be the
discoverer a* anybody Dr. Syx attempt

more than usually scornful, a* he stopped
a laden .wr and Invited the visitors to help
themselves
"1 think he said, “that I have struck
the only lode of thl* ore In the Tetan. or
possibly In this part of the world, but 1
don't know for certain. There may be
plenty of it only watting to be found
That, however, doesn't trouble me The
great point Is that nobody except myself
knows how to extract M "
Mr Boon closely examined the chunk of
rock which he had taken from the ear
Then he pulled u lens from his po-ket
with a deprecatory glance at Dr. Syx.
"O that's all right." said the latter,
with a laugh, the first that these gentle
m- ti had ever heard from hts lip*, and It
almost mad* them shudder, "put It to
every teat, examine It with the mlcro
ope. with fire, with electricity, with the
■pectrosoope— in every way you can think
of! I nssvra you It t* worth your while!"
Again Dr. Syx uttered his freealng
laugh, passing Into the familiar smile,
which had now become an undisguised
mock.
"t'pon my word." aald Mr Boon, taking
hta e>* from the lens. "I tea no sign of
any metal here."

doctor, snatching the specimen from the
president * hand "That * It! That’s nr
temlslum’ But It's of no uae unless you
can get It out and purtfy It. which It my
secvet!”
For the third time Dr. Syx laughed,
and hi* merriment affected the vlxMors
so disagreeably that they showed Impt-
Uence to he gooe. Immediately he chang
ed his manner.
, "Come Into my office," he aald with a
return to the gractouioieae which had
characterised him ever alnce the party
started from New York.
When they were all seated, and the doc
tor had handed round a box of ntgars,
he resumed the conversation in his moot
amiable manner.
"You see, gentlemen," he said, turo-

"But,” he continued, again changing
his manner, "we hav( had buMnewa

recreation."
While speaking the doctor pressed a
button on hts deck, end the room, which
waa Illuminated by electric lump*— for
there were no windows In the building
suddenly became dark, except part of
one wall where a broad area of light ap
peared.
Dr. Hyx voice had become very soothing
when next be spoke:
"1 am fond of amusing myaeif with a
peculiar form of the magic lantern, which
I Invented some years ago. and which 1
have never exhibited exoepl for the en
tertainment of my friends The pictures
w.ll appear upon the wall, the apparatus
being concealed."
He had hardly ceased speaking when
the Illuminated apace seemed to melt
away, leaving a great opening, through
which the spectators looked os If Into an
other world on the other side of the wall.
For a minute or two they could not clear
ly discern what was presented; then,
gradually, the flitting scenes and figures
became more distinct until Ihe ilfellk,-nesg

Indescribably beautiful and graceful In all
their movements.
From the land Ihe view passed out to

creaming foam, ran swiftly under the
spectator's eyes, ard occasionally, driv

daintily shaped venae!* which reminded
the beholder, by tbetr flashing wings, of
