to the lieutenant. A letter from D Arnot
brings Tarzan news of Jane Porter, who Is
delavlne her marriage to Clayton, and of
hla other friends.
CHAPTER IX-(Continued).
"TFBAlt," mused Tarzan, half aloud,
JL "that Olga has thrown away her
10,000 francs."
He read over that part of D'Arnot's let
ter several times In which he had quoted
from ills conversotlon with Jano Porter,
Tarzan derived a rather pathetlo happi
ness from it, but It was better than no
happiness at all.
Tho following three weeks wero quite
uneventful. On several occasions Tarzan
saw the mysterious Arab, and once, again
he rad been exchanging words with Lieu
tenant Gernols; but no amount of espion
age or shadowing by Tarzan revealed the
Arab's lodgings, the location of which
Tarzan was anxious to ascertain.
Gernols, never cordial, had kept more
than ever aloof from Tarzan slnco tho
episode In the dining room of the hotel
at Aumale His attitude on the few oc
casions tnat they had been thrown to
gether had been distinctly hostile
That he might keep up tho appearance
of the character he was playing Tarzan
spent considerable time hunting In the
vicinity ot Bou Saada. He would spend
entire days In the foothills, ostenslBly
searching for gazelle, but on the few oc
casions that he came close enough to any
ot the beautiful little animals to harm
them he invariably allowed them to es
cape without so much as taking his rifle
from Its boot Tha ape-man could see
no sport In slaughtering the rnost narra
tes and defer.aeleaa of God's creatures
for the mere pleasure of killing.
In faet, Tarzan had never killed for
"pleasure," nor to him was there pleas

battle that he loved the ecstasy of vic

CINCINNATI. July 27. Because they are
not In condition, rltchcrs llenton and Loir
hae been suspended without pay by Manager
Herzoff, of tho Iltds.
AUTHOR OF "TARZAN OF THE APES,"
"Your hunting has not been very for
tunato?" questioned tho officer.
"No," replied Tarzan; "the game here
abouts Is timid, nor do I caro particu
larly about hunting game birds or an
telope. I think I shall movo on farther
south, and havo a try at some of your
Algerian lions."
"Good!" exclaimed the captain. "Wo
are marching toward DJelftt on tho mor
row. You shall havo company that far
at least. Lieutenant Gernols and I, with
a hundred men, nro ordered south to
patrol a district in which the marauders
are giving considerable trouble. Pos
sibly we may have tho pleasure of hunt
ing tho lion together what say you?"
Tarzan was more than pleased, nor did
he hesitate to say so; but the captain
would have been astonished had he
known the real reason of Tarzan'a pleas
ure. Gernols was sitting opposite the
ape-man. He did not seem so pleased
with his captain's invitation.
"You will find lion hunting moro ex
citing than gazelle shooting." remarked
Captain Gerard, "and more dangerous."
"Even gazelle shooting has Its dan
gers," replied Tarzan. "Especially when
one goes alone. I found It so today. I
also found that whllo tho gazelle Is tho
most timid of animals, It Is not the most
cowardly."
He let his glance rest only casually
upon Gernols after he hatTspoken, for he
did not wish the man to know that he
was under suspicion, or surveillance, no
matter what he might think. The effect
of his remark upon him, however, might
tend to prove his connection with, or
knowledge of, certain recent happenings.
Tarzan saw a dull red creep up from be
neath Gernols' collar. He was satisfied,
and quickly changed the subject.
When the column rode south from Bou
Saada tho next morning there were halt
a dozen Arabs bringing up the rear.
"They are not attached to tho com
mand," replied Gerard in response to
Tarzan'a query. "They merely accom
pany us on the road for companionship."
Tarzan had learned enough nbout Arab
character since he had been in Algeria to
know that this was no real motive, for
the Arab Is never overfond of the com
panionship of strangers, and especially
of French soldiers So his suspicions were
aroused, and he decided to keep a sharp
eye on the little party that trailed behind
the column at a distance of about a quar
ter of a mile. But they did not come
close endugh oven during the halts to
enable him to obtain a close scrutiny of
them.
He had long been convinced that there
were hired assassins on his trail, nor was
he In great doubt but that Rokoff was at
the bottom of the plot Whether It was
to be revenge for the several occasions
In the past that Tarzan had defeated the
Russian's purposes and humiliated him,
or was In some way connected with hla
mission In the Gernole affair, he could not
determine. If the latter, and U seemed
probably since the evidence he had had
that Gernols suspected him. then he had
two rather powerful enemies to contend
with, for there would be many oppor
tunities In the wilds of Algeria, for which
they were bound, to dispatch a suspected
enemy quietly and without attracting
suspicion.
After camping at DJelfa for two days
the column moved to tha southwest,

CHESTER QUITS THE LEAGUE
BECAUSE OF EMERY BALL
Club Drops Out After President For
feits Game.
CHESTER, Pa., July 27. Tho Chester
Baseball Association last night decided
to withdraw from tho Delaware County
League. This action was brought about
by tho decision of J. Borton Weeks, pres
ident of tho league, who decided to award
to Clifton Heights a gamo that was won
by Chester from Clifton, but protested
by tho manager of tho Clifton team, who
contended that Georgo Mullen, Chester's
pitcher, used an "omerled ball" In tho
game.
stolen, and whoso herdsmen wero being
killed. The Arabs came out of their
goatskin tents and surrounded the sol
diers, asking ninny questions In the native
tongue, for tho soldiers were themselves
natives. Tarzan, who, by this time, with
the assistant e of Abdul, had picked up
qulto a smattering of Arab; questioned
one of the younger men who had accom
panied tho sheik while the latter paid his
respects to Captain Gerard.
No, ho had seen no party of six horse
men riding from the direction of DJelfa.
There were other oaaes scattered about
possibly they had been Journeying to one
of these. Then there were tho marauders
In the mountains above they often rode
north to Bou" Saada In small parties, and
even as far as Aumalo and Boulra. It
might Indeed have been a fow marauders
returning to the band from a pleasure
trip to one of these cities.
Early tho next morning Captain Gerard
split his command In two, giving Lieuten
ant Gernols command of one party, while
he headed tho other. They were to scour
the mountains upon opposite sides of the
plain.
"And with which detachment will Mon
sieur Tarzan ride?" asked the captain.
"Or maybe It Is that monsieur does not
care to hunt marauders?"
"Oh, I shall be delighted to go," Tawan
hastened to explain. Ho was wondering
what excuse he could make to accom
pany Gemots. His embarrassment was
short-lived, and was relieved fronj a most
unexpected source. It was Gernols him
self who spoke.
"If my captain will forego the pleasure
of Monsieur Tarzan's company for this
once, I shall esteem It an honor Indeed
to havo monsieur ride with me today,"
he said, nor was his tone lacking In cor
diality. In fact, Tarzan imagined that he
had overdone It a trifle, but, even so, he
was both astounded and pleased, hasten
ing to express his delight at the arrange
ment. And so It was that Lieutenant Gernols
and Tarzan rode off side by side at the
head of the little detachment of epahls.
Gernols' cordiality was short-lived. No
sooner had they ridden out of sight of
Captain Gerard and his men than he
lapsed once more into his accustomed
taciturnity As they advanced the ground
became rougher Steadily It ascended
toward the mountains. Into which they
filed through a narrow canyon close, to
-noon. By the side of a little rivulet Ger
nols caljed the midday halt. Here the
men prepared and ate their frugal meal
and refilled their canteens.
After an hour's rest they advanced
again along the canyon, until they pres
ently came to a little valley, from which
several rocky gorges diverged. Hero they
halted, while Gernols minutely ex
amined the surrounding heights from tha
centre of the depression.
"We shall separate here." he Bald, "sev.
eral riding Into each of these gorges," and
then he commenced to detail his various
squads and Issue Instructions to the non
commissioned officers who were to com
mand them When he had done he turned
to Tarzan "Monsieur will be so good as
to remain here until wo return."
Tarzan demurred, but the officer cut him
short "There may be fighting for one of
these sections," he said, "and troops can
not be embarrassed by civilian noncom.
batants during action "
"But, my dear lieutenant," expostulated
Tarzan. "I am most ready and willing to
place myself under command of yourself
or any of your sergeants or corporals,
and to fight in the ranks as they direct
It i what I came for "
"I should be glad to think so," retorte4
OernoU, with a sneer he made no at
tempt to disguise Then, shortly. "You
are under wy orders, and they are that
you remain here until we return Let
that end the matter," and ha turned and
spurred away at the head of hla men.
A moment later Tarzan found himself

OUT AGAIN
BOXER'S SISTER DIRECTS BOUT
Mrs. Loretto Bog Coaches Marshall in
Now York Fight.
NEW YORK, July 27.-It has como at
last. Tho cvor-broadening field of fcml
ntno endeavor haa stretched to tho prizo
ring. Last night, at tho Olympic A. C,
wheie Clarry Marshnll and Mickey Mc
Cabo were to battlo 10 rounds, all tho
negotiations about weight and gloves wero
conducted by Marshall's sister, Mrs.
Loretto Bog, who displayed iib much ring
knowledge as tho oldest tln-oared veteran
present. Mrs. Bog. sho nnnounced, was
her brother's manager.
Throughout tho bout sho sat a few
feet from the ring, directing ms eftuuu
so well that ho earned a draw with a
boy that outclassed him.
than this behind it. With the thought
ho arose and removed his rlfile from its
boot. Ho looked to Its loads nnd saw
that the magazine was full. Then he
inspected his revolver After this pre
liminary precaution ho scanned tho sur
toundlng heights and the mouths of tho
DoveraL gorges he was determined that
liu should not be caught napping.
The sun Bank lower and lower, yet
thete was no sign of returning spahls.
At last the valley was submerged In
shadow. Tarzan was too proud to go
back to camp until ho had given tho de
taohment ample time to return to the
ivalley. which, he thought was to have
been their rendezvous. With tho closing
In of night ho felt safer from attack,
for" he was at homo In the dnrk. Ho
knew that none might approach Mm so
cautiously as to cludo those alert and
sensitive ears of his; then there were his
eyes, too, for he could seo well at night;
nnd his noso, If they came toward him
from up-wlnd, would apprise him of tho
approach of an enemy while they wero
still a great way off.
So he felt that ho was In little danger,
and thus lulled to a sense of security he
fell asleep, with his back against the tree.
Ho must have slept for several hours,
for, when he was suddenly awakened by
the frightened snorting and plunging of
his horse, tho moon was shining full upon
tho little valley, and there, not 10 paces
beforo him, stood the grim cadSe of the
terror of his mount
Superb, majestic, his graceful tall ex
tended nnd quivering, nnd his two eyes
of flro riveted full upon his prey, stood
Numa el adrea, the black Hon. A little
thtill of Joy tingled through Tarzan's
nerves. It was like meeting an old friend
after years of separation. For a moment
he sat rigid to enjoy the magnificent
spectacle of this lord of tho wilderness.
But now Numa was crouching for tho
spring. Very slowly Tarzan raised his
gun to his shoulder. He had never killed
a largo animal with a gun in all his life
heretofore he had depended upon his
spear, hla poisoned arrows, his rope, hts
knife, or his bard hands. Instinctively
he wished that he had his arrows and his
knife he would have felt surer with
them. ,
Numa waa lying quite flat upon the
ground now, presenting only hla head.
Tarzan would havo preferred to Are a
little from one side, for he knew what
terrific damage the Hon could do if he
lived two minutes, or even a minute after
he was hit. The horse stood trembling
In terror at Tarzan'B back. The apeman
took a cautious step to one side Numa
but followed him with his eyes An
other step he took, and then another
Numa had not moved. Now ho could
aim at a point between the eye and the
ear.
His finger tightened upon the trigger,
and as he fired Numa sprang. At the
same instant the terrified horse mads a
last frantic effort to escape the tether
parted, and he went careening down the
canyon toward the desert.
No ordinary man could have escaped
those frightful claws when Numa sprapg
from so short a distance, but Tarzan
was no ordinary man. From earliest
childhood his muscles had been trained
by the fierce exigencies of his existence
to act with the rapidity of thought. As
quick as was el adrea, Tarzan of the
Apes was quicker, and so the great beast
crashed against a tree where ho had ex
pected to feel the soft flesh of man,
while Tarzan, a, couple of paces to the
right, pumped another bullet into htm
that brought him clawing and roaring to
his side.
Twice more Tarzan fired In quick suc
cession, and then el adreA day still and'
roared no mora. It was no longer Mon
sieur Jean Tarzan; It waa Tarzan of the
Apes that put a savage foot upon tho
body of hla savage kill, and, raising hi
face to the full moon, luted his mighty
voice In tho weird and terrible challenge
of hl kind-a bull ape had made his km.
And the wild things In Ihe wild moun
tains stopped In their hunting, ond
trembled at this new and awful voice,

A half mile from the valley in which

halted at tba sound, and looked at one

Ha had scarcely entered the confines
of the canyon when the flrBt of the white
robed figures emerged Jnto tho valley
upon the opposite side. For a moment
they scanned the little depression from
behind sheltering bowlders, but when
they had satisfied themselves that It wiik
empty they advanced across it. Beneath
the tree at one side they camo upon, the
body of el adrea. With mutteredexcla
matlons they crowded about It. Then, a
moment later, they hurried dawn the
canyon which Tarzan wns threading1 a
brief distance In advance of them. They
moved cautiously and in silence, taking
advantage of shelter, as men do who aro
stalking man.
CHAPTER X. v
THROUGH THE VALLEY OF THE
SHADOW.
Aa
8 TAUZAN walked down the wild
canon beneath the brilliant African
moon tho call of tho Jungle was strong
upon him. The solitude and tho savage
freedom filled his heart with life and
buoyancy. Again ho was Tarzan of the
'Apes every senso alert against tho
chance of surprise by some jungle enemv
yet treading lightly and with head
erect, In proud cemscloiTsness of his
might. 4
The nocturnal sounds of the mountains
wero new to him, yet they fell upon his
ears like the soft voice of a halt-forgotten
love Many he Intuitively Bensed ah,
there was one that was familiar. Indeed;
the distant coughing of Bheeta, the
leopard: but there was a strange note
In the final wall which made him doubt.
It was a panther he heard.
Presently a new sound a BOft, stealthy
pound obtruded Itself among the others.
No human ears other than tho ape-man's
would have detected It. At first he did
not translate It, but finally ho realized
that it came from the bare feet of a
number of human beings, They wero
behind him, nnd they were coming to
ward him quietly. He was being stalked.
In a flash he knew-why he had been
left In that little valley by Gernols; but
there had been a hitch In the arrange
ments the men had come too late.
Closer and closer came the footsteps.
Tarzan halted and faced them, his rifle
ready In hla hand Now he caught a
fleeting glimpse of a white burnoose He
called aloud In French, asking what they
would of him Hit reply was the flash
of a long gun, and with the Bound of
the shot Tarzan of tho Apes plunged for
ward upon his face,
The Arabs did not rush out Imme
diately; Instead, they waited to tin mir
..that their victim did not rise. Then
they camo rapidly from their conceal
ment, and bent over him. It was soon
apparent that he was not dead One of
the men put the muzzle of his gun to
the back of Tarzan's head to finish him,
but another waved him aside. "If we
bring him alive tho reward Is to be
greater," explained the latter
So they bound his hands and fe. nrwi
picking him up, placed him on the
shoulders of four of their number Then
the march was resumed toward the
desert. When they had come nut ,.
mountains they turned toward the south.-l
aim auuuv uayugni came to the spot
where their horses stood in care of two
of their number.
From here on thel progress was more
rapid iTarzan. who had regained con
sciousness, was tied to a spare horse,
which they evidently had brought for
the purpose. His wound was but a slight
scratch, which had furrowed the flesh
across his temple. It had stopped bleed
ing, but the dried and clotted blood
smeared his face and clothing. He had
said no word since ha had fallen Into
the hands of these Arabs, nor had they
addressed him other than to twue a few
brief commands to him when the horses
bad been reached.
For six hours they rode rapidly across
the burning desert,, avoiding the oases
near whleh their way !d. About noen
they came to a douar of about twenty
tents. Here they halted, and aa one of
the Araba waa releasing the alfa-grass
ropes which bound htm to hla mount they
were surrounded by a mob of mSi,
women and children. , ot y,, w
and wow especially the women, appeared
to take delight u heaping lMultTunon
the prisoner, and some bad even gone so
