Hall and I were seated near an other table about twenty-hve feet dis tant from the tube, and on this table wia an apiairatus furnished with a concave mirror, whose optical axis was dl'acted toward Ihe tube. It occurred to m- at once that this apparatus would be *u‘t ahle for experimenting with aisetrte waves. Wires ran from it to the Itoor. and in the cellar beneath was audlh’a the beating of an engine. My companion made an adjustment or two and then re marked: "Now. keep your eyes on the lump of gold In the further end of the tube yon der.

"Look at the nearer end of the tube!" "Why. It l becoming coated with go!d!" I exclaimed. He smiled, but made no reply. Still the strange process continued. The pink va por became so dense that the lump of gold was no longer visible, although the eye of violet light glared piercingly through the colored fog. Every second the deposit of metnl. shining like a mirror, Increased, until suddenly there came a curioua whistling sound. Hall, who had been adjusting the mirror.

"You no doubt have been told how one night the Syx engine was heard work ing for a few minutes, the first and only night work It was ever known to have done, and how. hardly had It started up when a Are broke out in the mill, and the engine was Instantly stopped Now there Is a very remarkable story connected with that, and It will show you how I got my first clew to the my stery, although II was rather a mere suspicion than a clew, for at first I could make nothing out of It. The alleged fire occurri-d about a fort night after our discovery of the double tunnel My mine! was then full of sus picions concerning Pyx. because 1 thought that a man who would fool people with one hand was not likely to deal fairly with the other "It was a glorious night with a full moon whose fare was so clear In the limpid air that, having found a snug place a' the foot of a yellow pin- tree, where the ground was carpeted with odorlfertous needles. I lay on my hark and renewed my early acquaintance milh the romanti cally named mountains ami "fib” of the Lunar globe. With my binocular T could trace those long white streaks which ra diate from the crater ring ealle 1 "Tycho" and run hundreds of miles In all directions over the moon. As I gaged at these sin gular objects I recalled the various theo ries which astronomers, puxaled by their et tgmatlcal aspect, have offered to a more or less confiding public concerning them "In Ihe mklsl of my meditation and moon gnxing I was ntartled by hearing Ihe engine In the Pyx works suddenly begin to run. Immediately a queer light, shaped like Ihe beam of a ship's searchlight, but reddish In color, rose high In the moon lit heavens above the mill It did Jtot last wore than a minute or two. for almost In stantly the engine was stopp'd and with Its stoppage the light faded and soon dis appeared The next .lay Dr. Pvx gave It out that on starting up his engine In the night something had caught Are. which compelled him Immediately to shut down again. The few who had seen the light, with the exception of your honorable per vanl, accepted the doctor's explanation without quest lon Hut I knew- there had been no fire, and Pyx's anxiety to spread the lie led me to bellove that he had nar rowly escaped giving away a vital secret. 1 said nothing about tny suspicions. but upon Inquiry I found out that an extra and pressing order for metal had ar riv'd from the Austrian government, and I drew the inference that Pyx. In his haste to till the order-hls supply having been drawn low-had started to work, contrary to his custom, at night, and had Immediately found reason to repent the rashness Of course. ! connected the strange light with this sudden change of “mind. "My suspicion having hen thus stim ulated. and having to n directed In a cer tain way. I began, from that moment to notice closely ihe hours during whl.lt the engine labored. At night It was always quiet, except on that one brief occasion. Sometimes It began early In the morning and stopped about noon. At other times the work was done entirely in th£ after noon. beginning sometimes as late as S or 4 o'clock and ceasing Invariably it sun down. Then again It would start at sun rise and continue the whole day through. "For a long time I was unable lo ac count for these eccentricities, and the problem was not rendered much clearer, although a startling auggestlvenes* was added to It. when, at length. I noticed that the periods of activity of the engine had a definite relation to the age of the moon Then I discovered. With Ihe al<l of an almanac, that 1 could predict the hours when the engine would be busy. At the time of new moon It worked all day; at Tull moon and last quarter It labored In the forenoon. Hie length of Its working hours Increasing as the quarter was ap proached; between last quarter anil pew moon the hours of work lengthened until, as I have said, at new moon they lasted all day; between new moon and first quar ter work began later and later In the fore noon as the quarter was approached, and between first quarter and full moon the laboring hours rapidly shortened, being confined Jo Ihe latter part of the after noon. until at full moon complete alienee reigned In Ihe mill." "Well! well!" I broke In. greatly aston ished by Hall's singular recltnl. "you must have thought Dr Syx was a cross between an alchemist and an astrolo ger." "Note this," said Hall, disregarding my Interruption, “the hours when the engine worked were Invariably the hours during which the moon was above the horixon." "What did you Infer from that?" "Of course I Inferred that the moon was directly concerned In the mystery, but how? That bothered me for a long time, but a little light broke Into my mind when I picked up, on the mountain side, a dead bird, whose scrorhed feath era were hronxed with art emlslum. and sometime later another similar victim of a mysterious form of death Then came the attack on tho mine and Its tragic, fin ish. I have already 101 l you what I oh served on that occasion But Instead of helping to dear up he mystery li rather complicat'd It for a time At length, how ever. I reasoned my way partly out of the difficulty, Certain things which I had noticed In the Syx mill convinced me that there was a part of the building whose existence no visitor suspected, and put ting one thing with another I Inferred that the roof must be <g>en above that secret par* of the structure, and that If I could get upon a sufficiently elevated place I could see something of what was hidden there. * At this point In Ihe investigation I proposed to you the trip to the top of the Teton, the result of which-you remember 1 bad calculated the angles with great care, and I felt certain that from the apex of the mountain 1 should be able to get a view Into the concealed chamber and Into Just what side of tt which 1 wished particularly lo inspect.

I began lo perceive the real truth, but It was so wl.dly inured - hie so infinitely remote from all human experience, thot I hardly venture.! to formulate It, even in my own xecret mind.

It occurred to me that 1 "Slid prove the accuracy of my theory with the aid of a kite You were kind enough to lend your assistance In Ilia: experiment, and It gave me irre fraglble evidence of the existence of a shaft of flying aoms extending in a di rect line between Dr. Syx' pretended mine and the moon!"

"Recurring to what had been done more than half a century ago by Herts, when he ooticetrated electrtc waves upon a focal IKiint hy means of a concave mirror," said Hull, "I saw that the key I wanted lay In on extension of these experiments At Inst I found that I could transform the energy of an engine into undulations of the eiher, whteh. when they had l>een concentrated upon n metallic object, like a chunk of gold.

"This nt first completely discouraged me. until I suddenly remembered that the moon Is In a vacuum, the gr* it vacuum of Interplanetary space, am! ihnt It pos sesses no perceptible atmosphere of its own.
