Jil-Bett, brought up in these waters. as It were, had never known fear. Tt was by no means the first shark she had encountered. but on all previous occasions she had always carried her trusty knife unsheathed in her right hand, picking up the shells nimb! with her left. ¥or the first time she stood on the ocean's bed with nothing to_protect herself from an attack. In that instant she remembered she had seen a small searchlight lying on the deck one day, which she had slipped into the pocket of the jackel of her suit—it was Jack's. With & coolness which would have Jone credit to the oldest and most experienced of divers, she drew it instantly_forth, focusing it upon the shark. The sun's rays caught the magnified light, reflecting it. send- ing its dazzling, blinding light di- rectly into the eves of the advancing monster. Stunned. it whirled sharply about, making desperately for deep water. The encounter had occupled scarce- Iy more than a moment of time, but it seemed to Jil-Bett that a much longer time had been consumed. There was another who watched the sun rise with equal imatience that morning. Ben-All had passed a rest- less night, thinking and planning. Ile had come to the conclusion that the ocean’s bed might not be a safe place, after all. for the valuable box he had deposited there the night before. “I will bring it up from the water and take it along with me, or rather the contents of the box He would have fully an hour to accomplish this ere the Katar divers would be astir. & In another room the Arabian woman was preparing the morning meal. Ben-Ali knew he must use strategy in succeeding to elude her to get down to the water. He did not intend that she should sce him either dive down or bring up the box. If she saw it she would insist upon its being opened and appropri- ate its contents then and there. With the gold it contained he meant to put Arabia far behind him. Stealthy as had been his steps. her quick ecar caught them. “Where now?" she asked, standing with arms akimbo, harring the exit. % “I must walk before I can eat” he replied tartly. .

In a twinkling, and before she could catch her breath, he had flung her aside and dashed through the door. " "As he had expected, taught by the experience of the previous day, she vas at his heels. He knew the chase would last until both fell exhausted. Stopping short, he allowed her to catch up with him, which she did with alacrity, reaching out and grasping his wrist with a steel-ltke grasp, at the same time uttering a Shrill laugh of triumph that stung him so he would have used his clenched fist on her had he dared. faybe vou have had exercise enough, and are ready to go back and eat.” she sneered. Ben-Ali nodded: “Yes, and T've given vou a little exercise which you needed. i By this time they had gained the water's edge, but at some little dis- tance away from the apot he wanted to reach, He saw there was nothing for it but to let her know, as nearly as possible, the object of his wanting come out. 0. Rave just recollected T had a little work to do here,” he said, point- ling to a jut of land further out | “There's a box of government papers down there, in which are laid out the exact spots where the oyster beds are located, not only on the Katar coast, but elsewhere; I want that box. The information it contains would be most valuable to me, and to you, of course.” “How do you know it is down there?’ she queried suspiciously. “They had me take it down and plant it for them.” “Why should they put valuable papers on the ocean bed, instead of in their strong boxes in their iron vaults?” “How do I know their reasons he returned surlily, “and I don't care what they are. Get that box I will: there's no time to lose, for they wiil ask me to go down for it today; after 1 fetch it up to them my every hope of learning the secret the box contains will be gone.” “If T could only trust you, Ali," she said. “You shall go to the spot with me where 1 shall go down, and a mo- ment more I will be up with 1 : That seemed to satisfy her. “If vou mean to cheat me, elude me in any way, you had better stay down there for all time, than come up at any other place and try to race me and lose me.” “I'm net & sea-monster, that T can stay under water for any length of time, getting from one place to an- other, without being in a diving suit. You ought to know that, woman. At that instant Ben-All's eve caught sight of Mudge and Jil-Bett in the distance, advancing, then pausing at the very spot at which he intended to go down. A flerce im- precation broke from his lips. The Woman beside him saw them, too. “They will see you: you will go down for the box anyhow?" She was astounded when she turned to Ben-Ali and her eyes fell on his face. It was livid; his eyes were bulging out as though they wauld burst from their sockets; his thin lips were purple: the veins on his neck stood out like whip-cords, while great drops of perspiration oozed out from every pore, rolling down his face in great drops. “The box contains something bet- ter than paper; no doubt thers are fine pearls in it—I have always wanted pearls,” she cried, facing him. He made her no answer, but 1&ped forward like an iInfuriated animal who saw its prey about to be wrested from him. By leaps and bounds he reached Mudge's side; as he swiftly advanced, he saw him adjust the div- ing suit on Jil-Bett. He shouted hoarsely for them to desist, but the wind carried his voice in another di- rection; they did not hear, nor did they see him approaching on a run. An instant _more, and Mudge had lowered Jil-Bett into the ocean's depth. He had no thought but that a moment down there, to say fare- well to the scene below that she h visited so often, would be quite enough to satisfy her whim.
