E Several miles south of the cabin, upon a, strip of sandy beach, stood two old men, irrulnc Before them stretched the broad Atlan tic; at their backs the Dark Continent; close around them loomed the Impene trable blackness of tho jungle. Savage beasts roared and growled; poises, hideous and weird, assailed their tars. They had wandered fpr miles In search of their camp; but always In the wrong direction. They were as hope lessly lost as though they suddenly had been transported to another world. At such a time Indeed must every noer of their combined Intellects have been concentrated upon the 'Utal question of the minute the llfe-ond-death question to them of retracting their steps to camp Samuel T.

Let us start now." T,?MUln,g tho P"fsor by the arm, Mr rhllander set off In the direction that would put tho greatest distance between themselves and the Hon. They had proceeded but a short distance wncn a backward glance revealed to the horrified gnze nf Mr. Philander that tho Hon was followed them. He tightened hi grip upon the protesting professor nnd In creased Ills' speed. "As I was saying, Mr. Philander," re peated Professor Porter Mr. Philander took nnother hnsty glanco rearward Tho lion also had quickened hla Ball, and wna doggedly maintaining nri unvnrylng distance behind them "Ho Ifl following us!" gasped Mr. rhll ander, breaking Into n run. "Tut, tut, Mr. Philander," remonstrated tho professor, "this unseemly hnsto Is most unbecoming men of letters. "What will our friends think of us, who may chance to be upon tho street and witness our frivolous antics? Pray let us proceed with more decorum." Mr. Philander stolo another observation astern. Horrors! Tho lion wns bounding nlong In ensy leaps senrco five paces behind. Mr. Phllnndcr dropped tho professor's nrm, nnd broke Into a mnd orgy of speed that would have done credit to any var sity track tehm "As I was Rajli.g, Mr Philander " screnmed Professor Porter, an, meta phorically speaking, he himself "threw her Into high " He. too. hnd caught n fleeting backward glimpse of cruel yellow eyes and half open mouth within startling proximity of his person. With streaming coat-tails and shiny silk hat Professor Archimedes Q. Porter fled through tho moonlight closo upon tho heols of Mr. Samuel T. Philander Boforo thorn a point of tho jungle .ran out toward a narrow promontory, and it wns for tho Imven of tho trees ho saw thero that Mr Samuel T. Thllnnder directed his prodigious leaps and bounds, while from tho Bhadows ot this same spot peered two keen eyes in Interested appreciation of tho race. It wns Tarzan of tho Apes who watched, with face n-grln. this odd camo of follow-the-lcadcr. Ho knew the two men were safe enough from attack In bo far as tho Hon was concerned Tho very fact that Numa had foregone such easy prey nt all convinced tho wise forest craft of Tnrzan that Numa's belly already was full The lion might stalk them until hungry again; but the chances wero that if not angered ho would soon tiro of tho sport, and slink away to his jungle lair. Really, the one great danger was thnt ono of the men might stumble and fall, and then the yellow devil would bo upon him In a moment and the Joy of tho kill would bo too great a temptation to with stand. So Tnrzan swung quickly to a lower limb In lino with tho approaching fugi tives; and as Mr. Samuel T. Phllandar camo panting and blowing beneath him, already too Bpent to struggle up to tho safety of tho limb, Tarzan reached down and, grasping him by tho collar of his coat, yanked him to the limb by his side. Another moment brought tho professor within tho sphere of the friendly grip, and he, too, was drawn upward to safety just as the baffled Numa, with a roar, leaped to recover his vanishing quarry. For a moment tho two men clung pant ing to tho great branch, while Tarzan squatted with his. back to tho stem ot tho tree, watching them with mingled curi osity and amusement It was tha professor who first broke the silence. "I am deeply pained, Mr. Philander, that Sou should have evinced such a paucity of manly courage lit the presence of one of tne lower orders, ahd by your crass timidity have caused me to exert myself to euch an unaccustomed degree In order that I might resume my discourse "As I was salng, Mr. Philander, when you Interrupted me, the Moors " "Professor Archimedes Q. .Porter," broke In Mr. Philntider, In Icy tones, "the lime has arrived when patlchce becomes a crime nnd mnyhetn appears garbed In the mantle of virtue , Toil have ac cused me of cowardice. Ton have Insin uated that you rnn only to overtake me, not to escape the clutches of the Hon. "Have a cate. Professor Atchlmedes Q Portcrl I am a desperate man. Goaded by long-suffering patience tho worm will turn " "Tut, tut, Mr. Philander, tut. tut!" cautioned Professor Porter; "you forget yourself " "I forget nothing as yet, Professor Archimedes Q Porter; but, bcllevo me, sir, I am tottering on tho vcrga of forget fulncss ns to your exalted position in tho world of science, and your gray hairs." Tho professor sat In sltencn for n few minutes, nnd the darkness hid tha grim smllo that wreathed his wrinkled coun tenance. Presently he spoke. "Look here. Skinny Philander," ho said, In belligerent tones, "If you are lookln' for a scrap, peel off jour coat and come on down on tho ground, and I'll punch your head Jtmt na 1 did 69 years ngo In the nlley bnck of Porky Evans' barn " "Arkl" grasped tho astonished Mr. Philander. "Lordy, how good that sounds! When you're human. Ark, I lovo you; but somehow It socms ns though you had forgotten how to bo human for tho last 20 years " Tho professor reached out n thin, trembling old hand through the dnrkness until It found his old friend's shoulder. "Forgive me, Skinny." he snld, softly. "It hasn't been quite 20 yenrs, nnd God atone knows how hard I havo tried to he 'human' for .Tnno's sake, and yours, too, slnco Ho took my other Jano nwny " Another old hnnd Btole up from Mr Phllnnder's etdo to clasp tho ono thnt lay upon his shoulder, nnd no other messngs could better have translated tho one heart to tha other. They did not speak for somo minutes The Hon below them paced nervously back nnd forth. The third figure In tho tree wan hidden by tho dense shadows near tho stem. He, too, was silent motionless ns a graven Image. "You certainty pulled me up Into thl. trco Just In time," said tho professor nt last. "I want to thank you You saved my life" "But I didn't pull you up here, Profes sor," said Mr. Philander. "Bless me! The excitement of the moment qultn caused mo to forgot that I myself was drawn up hero by soma outside ngenoy there must be somo one or something In this tree with us " "Eh?" ejaculated Professor Porter "Are you quite positive, Mr. Philander?" "Most positive, Professor," replied Mr. Phllnndcr, "and," he added, "I think wo Bhould thank the party. He may be sit ting right next to you now, Professor." "Eh' What's that7 Tut. tut, Mr. Philander, tut, tut!" said Professor Porter, edging cautiously nearer to Mr. Philander. Just thon it occurred to Tarzan of tha Apes that Numa had loitered beneath the tree for a sufficient length of time, so ho raised his young head toward tho heavens, and thero rang out upon the terrified cars of the two old men the awful warning challenge of the an thropoid Tho two friends, huddled trembling In their precarious position on tho limb, saw the great Hon halt In his restless pacing ns the blood-curdling cry smote his cars, and then slink quickly Into the Jungle, to be instantly lost to view. "Even the Hon trembles in fear," whis pered Mr. Philander. "Most remarkable, most remarkable, ' murmured Professor Porter, clutching frantically at Mr Philander to regain tho balance which tho sudden fright had 6 Prllously endangered Unfortunately for them both, Mr Phllander's centra -jf equilibrium was at that very moment hanging upon the ragged edge ot nothing, so that It needed but tho gentte Impetus supplied by the nddltlgnal weight of Pro fessor Porter's body to topple tho de voted secretary from the limb. For n moment they swayed uncertainly, and then, with mingled and most un scholarly shrieks, they pitched headlong from the tree, locked In frenzied embrace. It was quite soma moments ere either moved, for both were positive that any such attempt would reveal so many breaks HnU fractures ns to make further progress Impossible. At length Professor Porter essayed an attempt to move one leg To his sur prise, It responded to his will rh In days gona by. Ha now drew up Its mate nnd stretched It forth again. "Most remarkable, most remarkable," he murmured "Thank God, Professor," whispered Mr. Philander, fervently, "you nro not dead, then?" "Tut. tut, Mr. Philander, tut, tut," cautioned Professor Porter, "I do not know with accuracy as yet." With infinlto solicitude Professor Porter wiggled his right arm Joyt It wos In tact. Breathlessly he waved his left arm above his prostrate body It waved I "Most remarkable, most remarkable," ho said "To whom are you signaling, Profes sor'" asked Mr Philander, In an excited tona. Professor Porter deigned to mnka no response to this puerile Inquiry. Instend ho raised his head gently from the ground, nodding It back and forth n half dozen times. "Host rcmnrkable," ho breathed. "It remains Intact." Mr. Philander hnd not moved from whero ho hnd fallen; he had not dared the nttempt. How, Indeed, could one mnvo when one's arms nnd legs nnd back were broken? Ono ea wns burled In the soft loam, the other, rolling sldewlse, wns fixed In nwo upon the strnngo gyrations of Pro fessor Porter "How sad!" exclaimed Mr. Philander, half aloud "Concussion of the brain, superinducing total mental nberrntlon How very sad, Indeed! and for one still bo young!" Professor Porter rolled over upon his stomach; gingerly he bowed his back until ha resembled a huge torn cnt in proximity to a. yelping dog. Then he sat up and felt of various portions of his anatomy. "They nro nil here," ho ejaculated. "Most remarkable!" Whereupon ho arose, and, bending a scathing glanco upon the still prostrate form of Mr. Samuel T. Philander, he snld: "Tut, tut, Mr. Philander; this is no tlmo to Indulge In slothful ease.

"I think It tha part of discretion to fol low him," said Mr Philander "Tut, tut, Mr. Philander," returned tho professor. "A short time since jou wero advancing most logical nrgumenl in sub stantiation of your theory thnt camp lay directly south of us.

Then walk along any main street whera there nro lots of boys with Initiative and n basket. John Graves, whoso address Is somewhat Indefinite, proved that this was! true. Ho found a bag of potatoes, which dropped from a wngon near Kensington avenue and Cumberland streets nnd picked them up to "prevent congestion of trnrric" While his object was honorable enough, ho couldn't mnko it clear to Policeman 8ecger, and tho latter mode somo casual Inquiries. It seems that Graves couldn't account satisfactorily for his possession of tho potatoes, so tho cop took him lo thn 4th nnd York streets station. Through a hole In the bottom of the bag a large number of tho "spuds" drifted on to the sldownlk, nnd, rather thnn see them go to waste, several bojs quickly obtained buckets and baskets and commandeered tho overflow. When John reached the pollen station his burden wns considerably lighter. When ho faced Maglstrato Glenn oven the bluccoat was somewhat nonplussed ns to tha chnrgo against Graves He couldn't call It lar ceny, becnuso John didn't steal tho spuds: after the pcaca of lha neighborhood in tho vicinity of Greer and Diamond stfeeta.
