9he guardians of S)eath
It was a forlorn looking house, long
1 since forsaken of human tenantry, one
would have said. Scurrying lizards did
sentry duty upon ils porch, and the
predacious ants had eaten into its
woodwork. But to a civil engineer in
the unsettled center of Mexico any
shelter Is a matter of gratitude. Dar
rel and I took possession without any
qualms of guilt, for it was evident that
the owner had moved out years tie
fore. While the cook built a tin' and
prepared dinner in the main room wo
proceeded to explore, not without cau
tion, for the old shack Hooked like a
promising resort for snakes. I had
just dispatched a couple that were
keeping house in a side room when a
shout from Darrel summoned me to
the second story.
“Here’s a queer tiling to turn up in
an abandoned house,” he called.
He, was bending over a small box
bound in horseliido, the lid of which
he had pried open. Together we car
ried it downstairs and went through
the contents. They wore surprising
enough; at least it was surprising that
; the tenants should have left such pa
pers behind them, for here were deeds
to property, leases, some mortgage pa
pers aud other valuable documents, lie
sides a number of family records, all
dated many years before, but all in a
good state of preservation. What in
terested me most, however, was a
small map drawn on prepared paper,
the work of an amateur. Whoever
drew It know something about survey
ing, for he had his ranges and scales
fairly correct. He had started at a
spring at the foot of an unlocated hill
In the foothills of the San Luis range
and run a line up a ravine 520 feet.
Then he had run 125 feet up a cross
ravine, turning to the left, and had
marked a cross on the face of a wall
rising sheer ninety feet. His marks
showed the elevation of tills cross to
he thirty-two feet above the bed of (lie
ravine. Here was food for speculation.
"Darrel,” said 1 to iny companion,
“tbe man that drew that map didn't
do it for fun.”
“I guess that's right,” replied Dar
rel. “There's something behind the
place marked by that cross, but what
Is itV”
“What’s the most likely thing to lie
In the side of a cliff in this country V”
"Oh, I see!” said lie. “A cave, you
mean. But what’s in the cave, then?”
“That's what we’ll bad out if we
can locate the cave,” said I.
Luck was with us in the matter. It
wasn’t a week later when one of our
surveyors came in with a tale of hav
ing located a fine spring at the foot of
a hill and near one of the wildest ra
vines that lie bad ever set eyes on.
Neither Darrel nor I rested easy until
we were on the way to the spot with
the little map tucked under my belt.
We were to split even on whatever we
found. Door Darrel! When 1 think of
that bargain, I have a chill even to this
day.
It took us nearly a day on muleback
to reach our destination. There were
the spring, the bill and the ravine run
ning back Just as in tbe map. It was
one of tbe wildest spots 1 ever saw in
a wild Corfu I iy; one couldn't help feel
ing a bit put out with its loneliness.
Up the big ravine we trudged until we
reached tbe cross gulch, a sheer cut
through the solid rock, the work of
centuries of tierce torrents.
It took us a long time to make out
the cross, as the cliff was in semidark
ness and patches of moss were grow
ing over the surface, Imt we located it
at last and saw that the only way to
reach it was from the top of the cliff.
Having foreseen this contingency,
we had brought along a stout rope, and
near the edge of the cliff, which we
mounted after a long detour, we found
a convenient tree. For one of us To
lower the other would be an easy mat
ter. Both of us were eager to go.
Which should it be? The good old
American method of a flipped coin was
the-arbiter, and Darrel won. Present
ly he was sitting In the bight of the
rope before tbe spot where the cross
was marked and calling up his resorts
to me.
“Yes, there’s a cave here all right,
but it's walled up. Lower me down
that geologist’s hummer of yours, and
1 can break the flimsy thing in.”
1 sent tbe hammer down on a string,
and for five minutes Darrel hammered
and panted, and the sound of crum
bling masonry told me that be was
making headway. Presently there
came a sort of gasp from him.
"Phew! That’s bad air! Don’t dare
go in there for a bit.”
“Throw in a lighted match, and if
it burns the air is pure enough,” I
called excitedly, for 1 was in a hurry
to know what was in that cave.
“There she goes,” said Darrel a min
ute later; “burns all'right. Oh, great
Caesar!”
“What’s the matter? What is it?”
I cried, dancing on the edge of the
cliff.
“It’s gold, that’s what it is—a big
bracelet of it right near the entrance.
There's something that looks like bones
near It.”
“Just what I expected!” I cried jubi
lantly. “An Aztec burial cave proba
bly, aud the fellow that drew the map
found it out some way. They buried
their, finest treasures, with their dead.
It’s a fortune, Darrel.”
“Ghastly enough place to find it in,”
he said. "But here’s for it anyhow.”
And he entered the opening that ho
had made.
For what seemed to me long minutes
I lay peering over the cliff at the
twitching rope that gave Indications of
Darrel’s movements. Then there ech
oed from the opposite side of the ra
vine a strange sound ns of the rattling
of many castanets, followed by a
shriek of such grisly terror as I never
again want to,hear. The next Instant
Darrel plunged forth from the mouth
of the cave, swung out from the face
of the cliff, swung back again against
Die rock and, still shrieking horribly,
so that the ravine reverberated with
the sound of it, slipped through the
bight of the rope and fell headlong to
the rocks below. For a moment I lay
there stricken, waiting for I knew not
what tiling of horror to issue from the
mysterious cavern. Then 1 rushed
down to the aid of my motionless com
panion. 'Half the contents of my flask
lmd been forced down Ills throat be
fore he opened his eyes. But not. to
consciousness did lie open them. The
glare In them told me that. I tried to
recall liia mind.
"What was it, old man? What was
it?” 1 asked him.
He half raised himself and tried to
speak, gasping and choking like a man
being strangled.
“The hands! The hands of the dead!
At my throat! They’re throttling me!
licip!”
IL> tore at his throat with mad
strength. Then U!s limbs relaxed, and
he fell back In, my arms lifeless. 1
believe in my inmost soul that it was
not the fall from the cliff, but sheer
terror, (hat killed him.
How 1 ever lived through that fear
ful, horror haunted ride to the camp
I don't know. I was crazy with fever
and delirium when 1 reached there.
It wasn't till weeks afterward that
they told me of the expedition that
went, out to liml and bury Darrel. My
ravings and the map that they found
when they undressed me gave them a
working clew to the tragedy. They
found the rope tied to the tree, and two
of tiie men went down and entered the
cave armed with stout chilis, for their
theory was that poor Darrel had been
killed by a venomous snake. That
would not have explained his last
words, but whal: they found did. A
few yards in from the entrance lay
sprawled n heap of articulated skele
tons. Darrel's hat was beneath the
heap. Groping his way In, he had dis
placed a slender post which held in
place on a shelf above him the grim,
dead guardians of the dead. They had
fallen upon the invader and claimed
him for their own.
The men searched the cave. How
after row of long dead mummies they
found, but little treasure. The brace
let that had cost Darrel his life and
one or two small gold carvings—that
was all. But what of the map and the
maker of It? Did he perhaps visit the
cave and perish there of terror? Were
Ids bones those that Darrel saw from
the entrance of the cave? That Is a
mystery that I shall never solve -that
and that other mystery of who set,
against tiie profaning Incursion of the
living, that grisly trap of the dead.

incurable cancer. They believed his
case hopeless till he used Electric

Salve, which treatment completely
cured him. When Electric Bitters are
used to expel bilious, kidney and mi
