Daily Short Story OF THE Brunswick News. -—„— ■ 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.
