"I do not know, Miss Porter," replied
the young man, "unless we have dis
covered a runaway simian from tho
London Zoo who has brought back a
European education to his Jungle homo.
What do you make of It, Professor Por
ter?" he added, turning to the old man.
Professor Archimedes Q. Porter ad
justed his spectacles.
"Ah, yes, Indeed; yes Indeed most re
markable, most remarkable!" said tho
professor; "but I can add nothing further
to what I havo already remarked In
elucidation of this truly momentous oc
currence," and tho professor turnei
Slowly In tho direction of the Jungle.
"But, papa," cried the girl, "you haven't
said anything about It yet."
"Tut tut, child; tut tut." responded
Professor Porter, In a kindly and Indul
gent tone, "do not trouble your pretty
heart with such a weighty and abstruse
problems," and again he wandered slowly
off In still another direction, his eyes bent
upon the ground at his feet, his hands
clasped behind him beneath the flowing
tails of lila coat.
"I reckon the daffy old bounder don't
know no more'n we do about It," growled
the rut-faced sailor.
"Keep n civil tongue In your head."
cried the young man, his face paling (n
anger, at the insulting tone of the sallo".
"You've murdered our officers, and robbed
us. We are absolutely In your power,
bat you'll treat Professor Porter ana Miss
Porter with respect or I'll break that vile
neelt of your with my bare hands guns
or no guns," and the young fellow step
ped so close to the rat-fared sailor that
the. latter, though he bore two revolvers
stut a vll'lnnous looking knife In his belt,
slunk, back abashed.
"You damned coward," cried the young
man, "You'd never dare shoot a man
until hU back was turned. You don't
dare shoot me even then," and he de
liberately turned his back full upon the
sailor and walked nonchalantly away as
If to put him to the test-
The sailor's hand crept slyly to th
butt of one of his revolvers, his wicked
eyes glared vengefully at the retreating,
form of the young Englishman. The gaze
of his fellows was upon him, but still he
heMteted. At heart he w even a greater
coward than Mr. William Cecil Clayton

Cv its a mighty 'Poor itmr 1 l ,
THE APES
gunge of thesp Btrnngc pcoplo their gest
ures nnd facial expressions told him
much.
Tarzan had never scon tho effects of a
firearm before, though his booka had
taught him something of them, but whtn
ho saw tho raUfaced one fingering the
butt of his revolver ho thought of tho
scene ho had witnessed so short n time
before, nnd nnturally expected to see tho
young man murdered as had been tho
huge Bailor earlier In the day.
So Tnrzan fitted a poisoned nrrow to his
bow and drew a bead upon tho rnt-faced
sailor, but the foliage wns so thick that
ho soon saw the arrow would bo deflected
by tho leaves or some small branch, and
Instead he launched a heavy spear from
his lofty perch.
Clayton had taken but n dozen steps.
The rnt-faced sailor had half drawn his
revolver; the other sailors stood watching
tho scene Intently.
Professor Porter had already disap
peared Into the Jungle, whither he wn.s
being followed by the fussy Samuel T.
Philander, his secretary ''and assistant.
Esmeralda, tho negress, wns busy sort
ing her mistress' baggage from tho pile
of bales nnd boxes beside the cabin, and
Miss Porter had turned away to follow
Clayton, when something cnused her to
turn again toward tho Bailor.
And then three thlnga happened nlmoJt
simultaneously the sailor Jerked out his
weapon nnd leveled It at Clayton's back,
Miss Porter screamed n warning, nnd a
long, metal-shod Bpear shot like a bolt
from above nnd passed entirely through
tho right shoulder of the rat-faced man.
The revolver exploded harmlessly In the
air, and the seaman crumpled up with a
scream of pain and terror.
Clayton turned and rushed back toward
the scene. The sailors stood in a fright
ened group, with drawn weapons, pecrinc;
into tho Jungle. Tho wounded man
writhed and shrieked upon tho ground.
Clayton, unseen by any. picked up thn
fallen revolver nnd slipped It Inside his
shirt, then ho Joined the sailors In gnzlng,
mystified, Into tho Jungle.
"Who could It have been?" whispered
Jnno Porter, and tho young man turned
to seo her standing, wlde-eved nnrl
wondering, close beside him.
"I dare say Tarzan of the Apes Is
watching us nil right," he answered. In a
dubious tone. "I wonder, now, who that
spear was Intended for. If for Snipes,
then our ape friend Is a friend Indeed.
"By Jove, where are your father and
Mr. Philander? There's some one or
something In that Jungle, and It's armed,
whatever It Is. Ho! Professor! Mr.
Philander!" young Clayton shouted. There
was no response,
"What's to be done. Miss Porter?" con
tinued the young man, his face clouded
by a frown of worry and Indecision.
"I can't leavo you here alone with these
cutthroats, nnd you certainly can't ven
ture Into the Jungle with me; yet some
one must go In search of your father
He Is more than apt to wonder off
aimlessly, regaidless of danger or direc
tion, and Mr. Philander Is only a trlflo
less Impractical than he. You will pardon
my bluntness, but our lives are all in
Jeopardy here, and when we get your
father back something must be done to
imprera upon him the dangers to which
he exposes you as well as himself by hl
absentmlndedness."
"I quite agree with you." replied the
girl, "and I am not offended at all. Dear
old papa would sacrifice his life for ma
without an Instant's hesitation, provided
one could keep his mind on so frlvolops
a matter for an entire Instant. There Is
only one way to keep him In safety, and
that is to chain him to a tree, The poor
dear is so Impractical.
"I have It!" suddenly exclaimed Clay.
ion. -iou can use a revolver, can t ypu?"
"Yes, Why?"
"I have one. With It you and Esmeralda
will be comparatively safe In this cabin
while I am searching for your father and
Sir. Philander. Come, call the woman
and I will hurry, on. They can't have
gone xar.
Jane Porter did as he suggested and
when he saw the door close safely behind
them Clayton turned toward the Jungle.
Some of the, sailors were drawing, the
spear from their wounded comrade and,
as Clayton approached, he asked If he
could borrow a revolver from one of thein
while he searched tbe Jungle for the pro
fessor. The rat-faced one, finding he was not
dead, had regained his composure, and
with a volley of oaths directed at Clay
ton refused In the name of his fellows tp
allow the ypung man any firearms.
This man. Snipes, had assumed the role
of chief since he had killed their former
leader, and so little time had elapsed that
none of his companions had as yet ques
tioned his authority'.
Clayton's only response was a. shrug or
the shoulders, but 'as he left them he
picked up the spear which had transfixed
Snipes, and thus primitively armed, the
on of the then Lord Oreystoke strode
into the dense Jungle.
Every few moments he called aloud tbe
names of the wanderers. The watchers
In the cabin by the breach heard the
sound of his voice groalus ever tainter
and tauter, until at last it was swallowed

up by tho myriad noises of tho primeval
ood.
When Professor Archimedes Q. Porter
and his nsslstant, Samuel T. Philander,
nfter much lnslstenco on the part of tho
latter, had finally turned their steps to
ward camp, they were as completely lost
In tho wild and tangled labyrinth of the
matted Jungle as two human beings well
could be, though they did not know It.
It was by tho merest caprice of fortuno
that they headed toward the west coast ol
Africa, Instdid of toward Zanzibar on the
opposite side of the dark continent.
When In a short time they reuched tho
bench, only to rind no camp In sight.
Philander wns positive that t'icy were
north of their proper destination, while,
as a matter of fact they were about 200
yards touth of It.
When Jnno Porter and Esmcrnlda found
themselves safely behind the cabin door
the negress' first thought was to barrlcndo
tho portal from tho Inside. AVIth this
Idea In mind sho turned to senrch for
some means of putting It Into oxecutlon;
but her first view of the Interior of the
cabin brought a shriek of terror to her
lips, nnd liko a frightened child the huge
black ran to bury her face on her
mistress" shoulder.
Jane Porter, turning at the cry, saw
tho cause of It lying prone upon thn
floor beforo thorn tho whitened skeleton
of a man. A further glanco revealed 'a
second skeleton upon tho bed.
"Whnt horrible place aro we In?" mur
mured the awestruck girl. But there was
no panic In her fright.
At last disengaging herself from tho
frantic clutch of the still shrieking
Esmcrnlda, Jane Porter crossed tho room
to look Into tho llttlo cradle, knowing
what she should see there before ever the
tiny skeleton disclosed Itself In all Vs
pitiful and pathetic frailty.
"Stop Esmeralda; stop It this minute!"
sho cried. "You aro only making It worse.
Why. I never saw such a big baby "
Sho ended lamely, a llttlo quiver In her
own voice as she thought of the throe
men, upon whom she depended for pro
tection, wnnderlng In the depth of that
awful forest.
Soon the girl found that the door was
equipped with a heavy wooden bar upon
the Inside, and after several efforts the
combined strength of the two enabled
them to slip It Into place, the first time
In 20 years.
Then they sat down upon a bench with
their nrms about one nnother, and waited.
CHAPTER XVI.
After Clayton had plunged Into the
Jungle, tho sailors mutineers of the Ar
rowfell Into a discussion of their next
step; but on one point all wero agreed
that they should hasten to put off to the
anchored Arrow, where they could at
least bo safo from the spears of their
unseen foe. And so, while Jane Porter
and Esmeralda were barricading them
selves within the cnbln, the cowardlv
crew of cutthroats were pulling rapidly
for their ship In the two boats that had
brought them ashore.
So much had Tarzan seen that day that
his head was In a whirl of wonder. But
the most wonderful sight of all, to him,
was the face of tho beautiful white girl.
Here at last was one of his own kind;
of that he was positive. And the young
man and the two old men; they, too, wero
much as he had pictured his own people
to be.
But doubtlera they wero as ferocious
and cruel as other men he had seen.
The fact that they alone of all the party
were unarmed might account for the fact
that they had killed no one, They might
bo very different If provided with
weapons.
Tarzan had seen tho young man plclc
up the fallen revolver of the wounded

Snipes nnd hide It nway In his breast; nnd
ho had nlso seen him slip It cautlous'y
to tho girl ns she entered tho cabin door.
Ho did not understand anything of tho
motives behind all that ha hntl seen; but,
somehow. Intuitively he liked tho young
man nnd the two old men, and for tho
girl he had a strange longing which ic
scarcely understood. As for tho big bloc;
woman, sho was evidently connected In
some way to tho girl, nnd so he liked
her, also.
For tho sailors, and especially Snipes,
ho had developed a great hatred. He
knew by their threatening gestures nnd
by the expressions upon their evil faces
that they wero enemies of tho others of
the party, and so he decided to watch
them closely.
Tarzan wondered why tho men had gone
Into the Jungle, nor did it ever occur to
him that ono could become lost In that
