A.HoCAtil-BTf pre A MTSnC 8T0BT OF IHDU In the early fall of 1880 I was in Dah- bol, India, having run down from Bona- bay to see a sister who had set up a littls bangalow there. Dahbul in charTntai{ly 'situated betwasn tliesMttnd soma wooded heights, add'tts nothing presssd Ine at the M\nlb I re- mained there, spending my days ram blinn about the pisce sitd sometimes running into a cliance adventure. Thus it hap- pened that the following strange experi- snce befel me. One svening, in the cool of the late twiligL't, I 'was htroUing about through the tea end of the town, and stopping before a smsU temple which was a little ressoved from the houses srouiid, stood studying out the lines ef the usual gro- tesque figures cut upen its face. Dense shadows caused by the risii,)? moon tbre'Sr ' the entrance into such ob^urity that nothing could be si^en within. In fact 1 thought the place desert>^d for the time, and w'3 atKMit to obey an impulse to step up into tb«,shsdows banked in the door- way, when suddenly a human fig^na hurled itself upon me from out the dark- ness with such force that I btaggered back and almost lost my footing. I had in- stinctively thrown out my anus and olasped the ficuM for support, and naw as I recovered my balance and looked down, it was into the face of the fairest woman I had ever seen in any land. The marvelousiieaa of her beauty served to slssdy my faoul lies, where or- dinarily I sh<Nild havs felt bewildered, and. still boding her close, for she trem- bled a.H if she would fall from my arms, I said in such Hindosianne as I was cap- able of : " Something has Irightened you. You are fleeing from danger?" " Sir,'' she answered, in a voice soft and rich, tliouKh brekeii by low gavps, " I must haatcn ;" and she pulled against my arms f»r lelease. From my kiiow- ledee of tlio country I felt sure no woman like the one who stood before me could sarely venture into the streets st this liour, and having sn AiiKlo-Saxon fueling foi all wuinankind, 1 acted on a quickly fornird resolve. "I don't know what s^nds you out into the night, nor wtist pursuit you frsr, but I am ready lo take you where yuu wish to ^11 " I said. I must go far fi om this place â€" and alone," aks answered, speaking axiiatedly. "We wi!l Ro" I snid reassuringly, I will tske y<iu to your own people." " Losve we I you cannot help!" was hsr reply. ''Itliiiik lean," I ventured, "if you will coiilide ill nie. 1 have s sister here in whoKe caro I can place you, and if sny thing is thrratttning you I csn hide you with her. She is an En^ilish doctor, and is derritiiig her life to work an.oog your country women. Fur some lime she atootl, iiiwaidly de- bating, and at laat ahu annwered : "Yea, if I may come out ah.no oiiot in seven days." " You shall have perfect libe.-*y, of course," 1 eagerly aR«urt:d her. This promise seoinod so cimplekely to allay sny lurking feeling of fear ur doubt that at once she laid her hand upon mine, snying, "1 will >,» with you." I4ow 1 had no hesilntioii whalever in tikini; this girl to my sister, who, as 1 had said, lived in India for the purpoae of dealing with the conditions of lifu sur- lounding the Oiientnl women. After only A few weeks apei.t iu the tjirl's soci sty, I feund niyst-lf doe;>ly in love, and but for one Hiiiyuliir, im xplicable circuiu- ataiice would have be^t{«d her thru and there to become my wite. Ttie niystsry was this : While she looked the perfection of sweet and elaatic lienlth, ::nd p<isasssad sn unusually pnrs viiallty, no one ever s.tw her partake of food At first wo tliiiucht that peihn|s ske shrank from burdening us, and believed that in some way she secretly iroi-uicd cheap f»)>d outside. T'l all questiena on Oiu subject shs relurniid a jostiiiK reply, 'or else rc- inaiiied plt>adin|ily siluiit. Once only, duiiii)! osob week, was shs seen to Iwavu the home, when she went upon those twilight walks for which ahe hud stipu- lateil. Aud iho mystery of her Kuaton- auce, puzzling a', first, grew darker and dtiiispr uvory day, the more so sa ahe ateadily became more nvdiant in health and tinted like a pomusraiiite from a fountain of rich vitality. Indsel, ahe seeinsd the incarnation of some Qnwless vital force consciously masking itself in human form. But there cams a time when I could restrain my lovs no longer. My jealousy of those walks during which she wsri I kaew not whert, nor whom tusee, beeasas'SitlaatvnbssrabIa, and I detenniBsd to push my misgivinKS to a csnclusion tqr '(pMsti0Ding hsr outright. tsK in ^e %ftiMioen tX one of ihoM Seventh days of the weeic, on wliicli shs never failed of her twiTightwalk, I soufiht her where she sat in the shade of a Jrs}- lised verandah, and, seating niya4«lf be- zels her, took liA- bBild iu tty oWtr. "You must know bow I lovs yoa !" I Aid impetuously. I ceuld wipe out the fact of my own s(>ul sooner than 4 could ferget the n>ess- nreless depth snd meaning of the lo<ik she gave me, strsigbt from her lifted eyes. "I love you !" she mnrmuisd. Echo of; my own words only, but siieujih " Ynu will not i{o out aloiis again now?" \ qneationed pleadinjily. 'T wcmtd try to d« what :fe\i «s4c., even that which I cannot," she said, wiatfully. Having (!ained so much, I was in a measure satisfied ; but I determined in virtue of my now undoubtrd right, to follow ber should she again go on her secret errand. This I hoped she would not di>, but Ister I saw her steal oat from the house, not briskly as wsa usual, but with a eertsin Isnguor, as if SKainst her will- It was sn easy matter to follow her at a little dislanoe, for she wsnt straight forward as to s well kanirn goul never , once lookinit bsek. On she went past the houses of the town, ovtintn a stretch of the subvrbsn orchards, Tilitil we stood «pon the edve nf a tangled forest. Surely it conld not be that she would venture within those dense shades I Yes, even here she did not hraitats, but forced hsr way through tu the gloomy thicket, deftly stepping over obstriictioBs and pushing away the drooping vines as if the path were a clear and familiar one. And all the while I lollowed, poseessed by an in- tensity of cnnosily and a feeling which must have given me the eyss of a night animal, for I never for a moment lost sight uf her ; but, while she walked essily snd swiftly, I mshsd on, p^nting through excitement, until when, at Isst she halted snd leaned back against a tree in au altitude of expectation, I stopped, trrmbliiir and weak from as(ita. tion. And now that happesed which is burned into my memory forever. Aa ahe atood there, asotiixilers, her slight fi|{tire in its snowy garment, duly oBtlined agsinst^the dark trse trunk. I DOtioed that hsr eyes were fixed upon a a certain s[>ot in the ground before her, whither mine followed, al first I saw enly a fhint kIow in the grass at her feet, like thelitslitof two phosphorescent insects aide by side, butss this rapxily grew ai;d widened, the shape of a dark head was outlined within the nya. DiiKhter and brii{htor the liybt grew until yes, a cobra 'a hooded head appeared I And from tlie gleaming eyes streamed the coruscating flood. Horror stricken, I looked at hor ! she wns gasing down into thiise buriiin); veiiwiuous eyes, whose radisace waa momentarily intensified until her rapt face and figure, the coiled length of the serpent, and eveu tho grass and trass around wore illuminated as by the shin- ing of two small suns. Under this Compelling gose her lansuor melted, hsr form dilated and changed in my sicht as if the very crucibis of vital life were there, perging sway ths particles cf ninrtality, and building her form new out of iaipeiisbable materials. Her glowing lieauty was indescribable, it was a revela- tion. And now ths monster slowly raised himself, stretching up out of his odls, until his sciniihiting, fiery orbs were on a level wiih the smiling, dewy eyes of tht woman whom I loved. She leaned gent- ly forward and >oftly airoksd the mottled neck. A ireiuiir shook my whole body. In that moment I waa over-whelmed by the horrible certainly that I Veheld t'js ritss of tlie ancient mystic serpent wership still prsotised in certain (larts of India, and that the maiden served as the unwilling instrument of ths Priests of tho Temple from whose fearful power she had vainly attempted lo eacapo on the night of our first meetiug. Crazed by a fury of conflicting emotions, I svizrd a etuus that lay near and hurled it upon tho erect serpent. It struck hia niick just below ths level of the girl's matchless chin ; and as the ugly head drop{>ed suddenly dewu upm the ooils of his body, slowly settl- ing to the ground, the wonderful liicht faded, and a hsart rendii«g shrisk |fro-n the maiden rang through ths wooda. I sprang to her side, and lifted hsr in my arms. "O, my lovs ! " I cried, " speak to msl" But th* ezquisit* turns hung relBxad in my embraoe, aad the white tide eUwl;f shut down over the eyes of my lavo. The foarfsl spoil had been broken, but It What a cost ! By srresting too suddithly that strange, laaguetic currtnt, I bad <Cheektd ths fountain from which k*r life Iras fed. She was dead 1 Cairtlty and District Mr. Thos.
