a mysterious girl.
CHAPTER 11.
Under the Influence of the Moon.
My days now began to drift rather
ntmlessly, as without apparent pur-
pose I Continued to ling n n s
linger on island
that might well 011 seem to have little
attraction to a stranger—how little I
could see by the mystification of the
good atom, to whom, for once, of
course, I could not confide. Yet I had
a vague purpose; or, at least, I had a
n
feeling g that, if I waited an something
would develop in the. direction of toy
hopes. The doubloon still suggested
that it was the key to a door of fee-
cinoting mystery to which chance
might at any moment direct me.
And—why not admit it?—apart from
my buried treasure, to the possible
discovery of which the doubloon
seemed to point, I was possessed with
a growing desire for another glimpse
of those haunting eyes. They needed
not their association with the mys-
terious gold, they were mugneti0
enough to draw any man, with even
the rudiments of imagination, along
the path of the unknown. All the
paths out of the tittle settlement
were paths into the unknown, and, day
after clay, I followed one or another of
them out into the wilderness, taking a
gam with rue, as an Ostensible excuse
for•aoy spying eye, and bringing bath
with me occasional bags of the wild
pigeons which were plentiful on the
island.
One day I had thus wandered unus-
ually far afield, and at nightfall found
myself s111 several mil's from home

ness; and the next she had dived di-
rectly into the path of the moon, I
saw her eyes moonfiiled again, as she
came to the ^aur'fec0, and began to
swim—not, as one might have expect-
ed, out from the land, but directly in
tmvard the unseen base of the cliffs.
The noon -path did lead to a golden
door 1n the rocks, I sold to myself,
and she was about to enter It. It was
a secret door known Only to herself;
and then, for the first time that night,
I thought of that doubloon.
Perhaps if I had not thought of It I
should not have done what then I did.
here will, doubtless, be those who
will censure me, 1f so, I nm afraid
they must. At all events, It was tate
thought of that doubloon that swayed
the balance of my,ltesitation in taking
the moon -path in the track of abut
bright apparition.
I looked for a way down to the edge
of the sea. It was not easy to tial1, but
after much perilous scrambling I at
length found myself on the boulder
which had so lately been the pedestal
of that Radiance; and, in another mo-
ment, I had dived into the moon -path
and was swimming toward the mys-
teriousolde
g n door.
Before methe Y e ro k
C s opened in a
deep narrow crevasse, a long rift, evi-
dently slashing back Into the cliff, be-
neath the road on witch I had been
treading. I could see the moonlit
water e vanishing Into a sort ofg leam-
ing lane between the vast overhang-
ing walls.
Presently I felt my feet r.'st lightly
on firm sand, and, still shoulder deep
in the water, I walked on another yrl:'d
or two—to be brought to a sodden
stop. There she was coming toward
ate, breast high in that watery tunnel!

To b0 sure, 1 had but to inquire 0f

but I was averee from betraying my
interest to him or to e'7yone in the

to pursue my policy of machine and
waiting, letting a day or two elupse

with my gun.
I left the craggy bluff faring the
sea and plunged into the woods, I

but, coming out of the eitn. I was nt
once bewildered by the deep and enm-
pliented gloom of massed branches
overhead, end the denser darkness of
shrubs and villas so intricately Inter-
woven as almost to make ti solid wall
ebuut one, Then the atmosphere was
so close and airless that a fear of suf-
focation combined at once with the
other fear of beteg swallowed up in all
this savage green life, without hope of
finding one's way out again into the
sun. I fought my way In but a very
few yards when both these fears
clutched hold of we with a sudden hor-
ror, and the perspiration poured from
roe; I could no longer distinguish be-
tween the way I had come and any
other part of the wood!
Indeed, there
was n0 way alnywhere!
I must have battled through the
veritable inferno of vegetation for at
least an hour—though it seemed a life-
time.
Clouds ofYul

of mosgnitces enol a ;+en"leer kind of
persistent stinging fly was adding t0
my miseries, when at last, begrimed
and dripping with sweat, I stumbled
out, with a cry of thankfulness, on to
comparatively fresh air and some-
thing like a broad avenue running
north and south through the wood. It
W116 indeed densely overgrown, and
had evidently not been used fornhany
years. Still, it was comparatively
passable, and ane could at least see
the sky and take long breaths once
more.
Still there was no sign of a house
anywllere. Presently, however, as I
stumbled along I noticed something
looming darkly through tate matted
forest on my left that suggested wails.
Looking closer, I saw' chat it was the
ruin of a small stone cottage, roofless.,
and indescribably swallowed up in the
pitiless scrub. And then, near by, 1
descried another such nit». and still
another—all, as it were. sunk In the
terrible gloom of the vegetation, as
sometimes, at low tide, one can dis-
cern the walls of a ruined villuge at
the bottom of the seat.
Evidently I lad ("111e 01011 a ienge

Meanwhile, after poking about inns
much of the ruins as I could penetrate,
I stepped out through a gap in One
of the walls and found myself again
on the path by which I had entered,
I noticed that it still ran on farther
north, as leaving a destination beyond.
So leaving the haunted ruins behind
I pus1(071 00 and had gone but a short
distance when the path began to de-
scend slightly from the ridge on which
the rules stood; and there, in a broad
square hollow before me, was the wel-
come living green of a Qourishing plan-
tation of coconut palms! It. was est.
densly of cnnelderable extent—a guar•
for of a mile or,so, 1 judged—and the
palms were very thick and planted
close together. To my surprise, too, I
observed, as at length the path brought
me to than after a sharp descent, that
they were fenced in by a high bam-
boo stockade, for the 11108t part in
