They grew weary prospecting and at the same time carrying their rifles and heavy cartridge-belts, and the practice began of jeaving their wea- pons behind them in camp.

And a few nights later, after din- ner, Bheldon and Joan were playing Dilliards, when Satan barked in the compound and Lalaperu, sent to #66, brought back a tired and travel- stained native who wanted to tal« with the “big fella white marster.” Sheldon went out on the veranda to see him, and, at first glance at the gaunt features and wasted body of the man, knew that his errand was likely to prove important. Me Charley," the man muttered wearily, ‘Me stop along Binu.” “Ab, Binu Charley, eh? Well, what name you talk along me? What place big fella marster along white man he ninny, walk about long way big bit. What nam Me savvee too much trouble close up. Me fright like hell. Me run, My word, me run.” Tudor, quite unconscious, was slung across his shoulder and carried a mile down the trail. Here, hiding his trail, Binu Charley had carried him for a quarter of a mile into the heart of the deepest jungle and hidden him tm @ big banyan tree. Returning to try to save the rifles and personal outfit, Binu Charley had seen @ party of bushmen trotting down the trail, and had hidden tn the bush. Here, and from the direction of the main camp, he had heard two rifle shots. And that was all. He had never seen the white men again, nor had he ven- tured near their old camp. He had gone back to Tudor, and hidden with him for a week, living on wild fruits and the few pigeons and cockatoos he had been able to shoot with bow and arrow. Then he had journeyed down to Berande to bring the news. ‘Tudor, he said, was very sick, lying unconscious for days at @ time, and, when in his right mind, too weak to Joan and Sheldon together listened to the tale Binu Charley had brought He described Tudor's expedition up the Balesuna, the dragging of the rapids, the passage up where it threaded the grass the river lands, the innumerable wasbings of help himself. gravel by the white men in search “Phere is only the one thing to do,” of gold, the first rolling foothills, the §hcldon said to Joan. man-traps of staked pits in the she drummed with her hand and jungle trails, the first meeting with waited, while Binu Charley gazed » bushmen, their friendliness, the wearily at ber with unblinking eyes. per penetration of the interior {11 start the first thing in the und the flanks of the Lion's Head, morning,” Sheldon said, the fevers of the white men, and we'll start,” she corrected. “I can their dness in trusting the bush- get twice as much out of my Tahitians men, as you can, and, besides, one white The weeks had gone by, and no should never be alone under such cir- t acts had been attempted, The cumstances,” ushmen swarmed in the camp in He shrugged his shoulders in token, increasing numbers, and they were not of consent, but of surrender, A ways making presents of yams and man was sent to Balesuna village to ro, of pig and fowl, and of wild command old Scelee’s immediat f and vegetables.

Viaburi turned yellow when told that he was to ac- company the expedition, and, to eve- rybody’s surprise, Lalaperu volun- teered to take hia place. Seelee arrived, proud in his im- portance that the great master of Berande should summon him In the night-time for counctl, and firm in his refusal to step one inch within the dread domain of the buehmen. As he said, if his opinion had been asked when the gold-huntere started, ‘he would have foretold their diaas- trous end, There was only one thing that happened to any one who ven- tured into the bushmen’s territory, and that was that he was eaten, And he would further say, without being asked, that if Sheldon went up into the bush, he would be eaten, too. Sheldon sent for a gang-boss and told him to bring ten of the biggest, best and etrongest Poonga-Poonga men. “Not salt-water boys,” Sheldon cau- tioned, “but bush-boys—leg belorg him etrong fella leg. Boy no savvee musket, no good. You bring 'm shoot musket strong fella.” ‘They were ten picked men that filed up on the veranda and stood in the glare of the lantorns, ‘Their beavy, muscular legs advertised that they were bushmen. Each claimed long experience in bush fighting, most of them showed scars of bullet or spear- thrust in proof, and all were wild for a chance to break the bumdrum monotony of plantation labor by going on a killing expedition, Killing was thelr natural vocation, not weed cutting; and, while they would not have ventured the Guadajcanar bush alone, with a white man like Sheldon behind them, and a white Mary euch as they knew Joan to be, they could expect safo and delightful time Besides, the great master had told them that the eight gigantic Tabitians were going along. CHAPTER XXII, ‘OUCHER remained in charge of the plantation, and Bhel- don’s expedition started. A few days later they lost one man in @ bushman’s trap, and soon afterward captured one of thelr unseen foomen, With this man as a guide and the assistance of the LOAN Showing How a Man and a Maid Found Love in the Heart of Romance messenger from Tudor, they ap- proaghed the spot where Tudor bad been left. ‘They turned aside from the meagre trail at a place indicated by Binu Charley, and, sometimes crawling on hands and knees through the damp black muck, at other times creeping and climbing through the tangled un- dergrowth a doren feet from the ground, they came to an immense banyan tree, half an acre in extent, that made in the innermost heart of the jungle a denser jungle of its own From out of its black depths came the voice of a man singing in a cracked eerie voice. “My word, that big fella mareter he no dle!" ‘The singing stopped, and the voice, faint and weak, called out @ hello, Joan answered, and then the vol: explained. “I'm not wandering, I wae just singing to keep my spirits up. Have you got anything to eat?” A few minutes saw the resoued man lying among blankets, while fires were bullding, water was being car- ried, Joan's tent was going up, and Lalaperu was overhauling the packs and opening the tins of provisions.
