Ho could not well negotiate the trees Vlth this nwkward burden, but ho kept to tho trails, and so made fairly good time. For several hours ho traveled a little north of east jntll ho enmo to nn im penetrable wall of matted and tangled vegetation Then ho took to tho lower branches, and In another 15 minuses ho emerged Into tho amphitheatre . of tho apes, where they mot In council, or to celebrate, tho rites of tho Dum-Dum. Near tho centre of the clcnrlns, nnd not for from the drum, or nltar. ho com menced to dls This was harder work than turning up the freshly excavated earth at the Brave, but Tarzan of tho Apes was persevering nnd so he kept at his labor until he was rewarded by seeing a hole sufficiently deep to receive the chest nnd effectually nldo It from view. Why had he gone to all this labor with out knowing tho valuo of tne contents of the chest? I Tarzan of the Apes had a man's figure and a man's brain, hut ho was an ape by training and environment. His brain told Mm that the chest contained something ,' valuable, or the men would not havo hidden It. his training had taught him to Imitate whatever was now nnd un usual, and now the natural curiosity, which la as common to men as to apes, prompted him to open tho chest and ex amine Us contents. But the heavy lock and mnsslvo Iron bands baffled both his cunning and his Immense strength, so that he was com pelled to bury the chest without havln? his courlosity satisfied. By the tlmo Tarzan had hunted his way back, to the vicinity of the caDin, feeding as he went, It was quite dnrk.

I suppose, for they certainly sound weird and pirnty. -"u.niy nJw'ff hftd bccn ono of the crew, and the letter was to his son, who was, at tho -very tlmo the letter was written, master of u Spanish merchantman. Many years had elapsed since the events the letter narrated had transpired, and tho old man had become u respected citizen of an obscure Spanish town, but tho love of gold was still so strong upon him that he risked nil to acquaint his son with the means of attaining fabulous wealth for them both Tho writer told how when but a week out from Spain tho crew had mutinied and murdered every officer and man who opposed them; bu they defeated their own ends by this very act, for there was none left competent to navigate a ship at sea. They were blown hither nnd-thlthcr for two months until, sick and dying of scurvy, starvation and thirst, they had been wrecked on a small Islet. me gaueon was Washed high upon the beach whero she went to pieces: but not before the survivors, who numbered but ten souls, had rescued one of the great chests of treasure. This they burled well un nn fh ii.i and for three years they lived there In constant hope of being rescued. One by one they sickened and died, until only one man was left, the writer of tho letter. The men had built a boat from the wreckage of the galleon, but having no Idea where the Island was located they had not dared to put Ho sea. When all were dead except himself, however, the awful loneliness so weighed upon tho mind of the solo survivor that ho could endure It no longer, and. choos lng to risk death upon the open sea rather than madness on the lonely Isle, he set sail In his little boat after nearly a j'ear of solitude. Fortunately he sailed due north, and within a week was in the track of tho Spanish merchantmen plying between the "West Indies and Spain, and was picked up by one of these vessels homeward bound. The story he told was merely one of shipwreck In which all but a tew had perished, the rest, except himself, dying after they reached the Island. He did not mention the mutiny or tho cheat of burled treasure. The master of the merchantman as sured him that from the position at which they had picked him up, and the prevail ing winds for the past week he could have been on no other Island than ono of the Cape Verde group, which lie oTT the West Coast of Africa In about 16 de grees or 17 degrees north latitude. His letter described the Island minutely, as welt as the location of the treasure.

Pbvoe WfUAUl li nnd wns accompanied by the crudest, funniest little old map S'ou ever saws with trees and rocks all marked hy scrawly X's to show the exact spot whero the treasure had been burled. When papa explained the real nature of tho expedition, .ny heart sank, for I know so well how visionary nnd Im practical the poor dear has always been that I feared that ho had again been duped; especially when he told trie tlut ho had paid a thousand dollars for the tetter and map. To add to my distress, I learned that he had borrowed 110,000 mora from Robert Cnnler, and had given his notes for ths amount. Mr, Canter had asked for no security, and you know, dearie, what that will mean for me If papa cannot meet them. Oh, how I detest thnt maul We all tried to look on tne bright sldo of things, but Mr. Philander, nnd Mr. Clayton ho joined us In London Just for tho adventure both felt as skeptical as I Well, to make a long story short, we found the Island and the treasure a great Iron bound oak chest, wrappod In many layers of oiled sail cloth, and n strong and firm as when It hod been burled nearly 200 years ago. It was Blmply filled with gold coin, and was so heavy that four men bent beneath Its weight. The horrid thing seems to bring nothing but murder nnd mlsfortuno to those who have to do with It, for three dnya after we Railed from tho Cape Verde Islands our own crow mutinied and killed every ono or tnelr officers. Oh, It wns tho most terrifying ex perience ono could imagine I cannot oven write of It. They wero going to kill un too, but one of them, tho leader, a man named King, would not let them,, nnd so they sallnd south along tho coast to a lonely spot where they found a good harbor, nnd here thoy landed and have loft us. They sailed avtay with tho treasure to day, but Mr Clayton says they will meet with a fato similar to the mutineers of the ancient galleon, because King, tho only man aboard who knew nught of navigation, was murdered on the beach by ono of the men tho day we landid. I wish you could know Mr. Clnyton; ho Is tho dearest fellow imaginable, and unless I am mistaken ho has fallen very much In love with poor little me. Ho Is tho only son of Lord Qreystoke, and some day will' Inherit the title and estates In addition, ho is wealthy ln his own right, but tho fact that ho Is going to bo an English Lord make mo very snd-you know what my sentiments havo always been relative to American girl who married titled foreigners. Oh, If he were only a plain Amorlcan gentle man! But It Isn't his fault, poor fellow, and In everything except birth ne would do credit to my darling old country, and mat is tne greatest compliment I know how to pay any man. Wo havo had the most weird experi ences since wo were landed hero. Papa and Mr. Philander lost In the jungle, and chased by a real Hon. Mr. Clayton lost, and attacked by wild beasts. Esmeralda and I cornered In aa old cabin by a perfectly awful man eating lioness. Oh, It was simply 'terrl flcal," as Esmeralda would say. But tho strangest part of It alt Is the wbnderful creature who rescued us. I have not seen him, but Mi Clayton and papa nnd Mr. Philander Ivivo, nnd they say that ho Is a perfectly god-like white man tanned to a dusky brown; with the strength of a wild elephant, tho agility ui a monitcy, nna tho hravery of a. lion. He speaks no English nnd vanishes a quickly and ns mysteriously after he has performed somo vclorous deed, na though ho wero a disembodied spirit. Then we have another weird neighbor, who printed a beautiful sign In Engllah nnd tacked It on tho door of hla cabin, which we have preempted, warning us ta destroy none of his belongings, and sign ing himself "Tarzan of the Apes." .AVe have never seen him, thou.gh we think ho Is about, for one of tho sailors, who was going to shoot Mr. Clayton in tho back, received a spear In his shoulder from somo unseen hand In tne Jungle. The sailors left us but a meagre supply of food, so, as wo have only a single revolver with but three cartridges left In It, we do not know how we can procuro meat, though Mr. Philander says that we can cxlBt Indefinitely on the will fruit and nuts which abound In the jungle. I nm very tired now, so I shall go to my funny bed of grasses which Mr. i-'layton gathered for me, but will add to this from day to day as thlnss happen. Lovingly, Jane Porter. To Hazel Strong, Baltimore, Md. Tarzan sat ln a brown study for a lonj time after he finished reading the letter. It was filled with so many new and wonderful things that his brain was In a whirl as he attempted to digest them all. So they did not know that he was Tarzan of the Apes. Ho would tell them In his tree ho had constructed a rude shelter of leaves and boughs, beneath which, protected from the rain, ho had placed the few treasures brought from the cabin. Among theso were somo pencils. He took one, and beneath Jana Porter's signature he wrote: I am Tarzan of the Apes. He thought that would be sufficient. Later he would return the letter to the cabin.
