Farther to the south opened out a wide cove that suggested easy beachâ€" ing_ but over it hung a olond af etaem "Lara pouring down," said ‘Trendon. Fortunately at‘ the point where the clif looked easlest the seas ran low. Ropes bad been brought. After some dainty maneuvering two of the sailors gained foothold and slung the ropes so that the remainder of the disembarkaâ€" tion was simple. Nor was the ascent of the cliff a harsb task. Half an bour after the landing the exploring party stood on the suminit of the hill, where the black flag waved over a scene of utter desolation. The vegetation was withered to pailid rags; even the tinlest weediing in the rock crevices had been poisoned by the devastating blast. 1 ‘"Pennyâ€"popâ€"pinwhee! of a volcano, anyhow," remarked Trendon disparagâ€" Ingly. "Real man size eruption would have wiped the whole thing off the map first whack." Going in, they saw no sign of life mlong the shore. Even the birds had deserted it. For the time the volcano seemed to have pretermitted its acâ€" tivity. Now and again there was a spurtle of smoke from the cone, folâ€" lowed by subterranean growiings, bat, on the whole, the conditions were reasâ€" suring. "Be It so," said Captain Parkinson after a time. "Ou your responsibility," returned the other obstinately. "He‘s under opiate now." "If be is roused now, even for & moâ€" ment, I won‘t answer for the conse quences, sir," said the surgeon bluntly, "SBurely you can have him point out a landing place," said the captain, _ "Dr. Trendon," said Captain Parkinâ€" son, "you will arm yourself and go with me in the gig to make a Innding." "Yes, sit," responded the surgeon. "Mr. Barnett," "Yes, sir." _ "Shonld we be overtaken by the vaâ€" por while on the bigbhland and be unâ€" able to get back to the beach, you are to send no rescuing party up there unâ€" til the air has cleared." "But, sit, may we not"â€" "Do you understand?* "Yes, sit." "In case of an attack you will at once seud in another boat with a howâ€" itzer." ‘"Yes, sir." 4 "Dr. Trendon, will you see Mr. Slade aud luquire of him the best point for landing?"

Scattered bones glistened on the rocky shore, but they were not buman relics. Occasionally beaches tempted a landing, but all of these led back to precipitous cliffs except one, from the side of which opened two small caves. Into the first the lantern cast its glare, revealing emptiness, for the arch was wide, and the cave shallow. The entrance to the other was so narâ€" row as to send a visitor to bis knees.
