Oyer, out of tho direct path of tho nnl
mnl fear of It left me, but mother
emotion na tiulcldy (tripped mo-hope of
escape that tho demoralised condition of
the guards made possible for the Instant.
L thought of Perry, and but for the
hope, that I mlKht better encompass life
relenscHIf myself fiec I should have put
the thought of freedom from mo nt once.
As It nas, I Hastened on townid the rUht,
searchlnB for nn ovlt toward which no
Sagoths wore fleeing1, nnd nt last I found
It-it low, nnnow nperture tending Into
a dark corridor.
Without thought of the posslblo con
sequences, 1 dirted Into tho shadows of
the tunnel, feeling m vvny nlotifr through
the gloom for somo distance Tho noises
of tho amphitheatre hnd grown fainter
and fainter, until now nil wns as silent
ns the tomb nbojt in.
I'alnt light til tercel from nbovo through
Decisional icntllntlng nnd lighting tubes,
lut It nno senree hufllclent to oitaulo my
human eves to cope with the darkness,
and so I was foiccd to move with oUtomo
care, feeling m wn along step bv
step, with a hand upon tho wnll bcsldo
me
Prcsc'itls tho light Increased, and n
moment later, to my delight, 1 enmr upon
a flltht of steps leading uptvnid, nt the
top of which the brilliant light of the
nooncl ij sun shone thiough tin opening In
the ground
Cautiously I crept up the stairway to
the tunnel' end nrd, peering out, snw
the broad plain of l'hdtrn before me.
The numerous loftj, grnnlto towers which
mat It the several entrances to tho sub
terranean city were all In fiont of me
behind the plain stretched level nnd
unbioken to the nearby foot-hills.
I had conn to tho suitnce, then, beyond
the cltj, nnd so my chances for escape
seemed much enhanced.
My first Impulse was to await daiKness
before attempting to cross tho plain, so
deeply Implanted are habits of thought,
but of a sudden I ictollected the per
petual noonday brilliance which envelops
Pellucldnr, and with a smile I stepped
forth Into tho daj light.
Rank glass, wnlst high, grows upon the
plain of rhuttn, the gorgeous flowering
grass of the Inuct woild, each particular
blade of which Is tipped, with a tiny, llve
. pointed blossom-brilliant llttlo stars of
varjlng colors that twinkle In the green
foliage to add still another charm to the
, weird jet lovelj landscape,
i But then the only aspect which at
tracted me was the distant hills, in which
1 hoped to find sanctuary, nnd so 1
J hastened on, tinmpllns the myrlnd beau
.jeliles beneath my hurraing feet. 'K
' Perry says that tho force of gravity la
I less upon the surface of tho Inner -orld
than upon that of tho outer. Ho ex
plained it all to mo once, but I was never
particularly brilliant In such matters, and
o most of it has escaped me. (
As I recall it, tho difference Is due In
nomo part to tho counter-atlractlon of
that portion of tho enrth's crust directly
opposite tho epot upon tho face of Pellucl
dnr at which ono's calculations arc being
made
Bo that as it may. it always seemed to
me that I moved with gi eater speed and
agility within I'ellucldar than upon tho
outer burfacc; there was a ccrtuln airy
lightness of atop that was most pleasing,
and a feeling of bodily dotnenment which
I can only comparo w Ith that occasionally
experienced in the dreams of most of us
And as I crossed Phutra's flower-bespangled
plain that time I seemed almost
to fly, though how much of tho sensation
was due to Perry's suggestion and how
much to actuality I am sure I do not
know.
The more I thought o Perry the less
pleasure I took in my new-found freedom
There could be no liberty for mo within
Pellucldar unless the old man shared it
with me, and only the hope thnt I might
find somo way to encompass his release
kept me from turning- pack to Phutra.
Just how I was to help Perry I could
Bcarce imagine, but I hoped that somo
fortuitous circumstance might solve the
problem for me. It was quite evident,
however, that little less than a miracle
could aid mo, for what could I accomplish
In tlds strango world, naked and un
armed? It wi.s ci en doubtful that I could retrace
my steps to Phutra should I once pass
beyond view of the plain, and even wore
that possible, what aid could I bring to
Perry, no matter how far I wandered?
The catio looked more and more hopeless
th longer I viewed it; yet with a stub
born persistency I forged ahead toward
the foothills. Behind me no sign of pur
suit developed; before me I saw no living
i thing. It was as though I moved through
a dead and forgotten world.
I .have no idea, of course, how long it
took me to reach the limit of the plain,
but at last I entered the foothills, follow
ihg a little canyon upward toward the
mountains Beside me frolicked a laughing-
brooklet, hurrying upon its noisy way
down to the silent sea I
In its quiet pools I discovered many
mall fish of four or Ave pound weight,
I should imagine. la appearance, except
as to size and color, they were not unlike
the whale of our seas. As I watched them
playing about I discovered not only that
they suckled their young, but that at In
tervals they rose to the surface to breathe,
aa well as to feed upon certain grasses
and a strange, scarlet lichen which grew
upon the rocks Just above the water line.
It was this, last habit that gave me the
oiportunity I craved to capture one of
these herbivorous cetaceans that Is what
Perry callu them and make as good a
meal as one can on raw, warm-blooded
fish; but I had become rather used, by this
time, to the eating' of food In its natural
state, though I still balked on tho eyes
nd entrails, much to tha amusement of
uqak, to whom I always passed these deli
cacies, Crouching beside tha brook, I waited
until one of the diminutive purple whales
rose to nibble at the long grasses which
cverhung the water, and then, like the
beast of prey that man really is, I sprang
upon my victim, appeasing- ny hunger
while he yet wriggled to escape.
Then I drank from the clear pool and,
alter washing, my hands and face, con
. tinued roy flight

silent shores of tho antediluvian sens of

Ai I walked I could not but compniS
myself with the first man of that oilier

nnd at tho thought there rose beforu my

As; I walked my ejes were bent upon

which shnttored nil my beautiful dicntn
of solltudo nnd safety and peace and pri

The thing was a hollowed log drawn up
upon the pnnds nnd In tho bottom of It
lay n crude paddle
Tho rude nhoek of awakening to what
might doubtleis prove poiiio new form of
dnngor was itlll upon me when I henrd
a lattllng of looie stones from the direc

r. momentous qiiontlon
The npoed of the fellow seemed to pre
clude tho iHivllillltv of escaping him upon
the open bench. There wns but n single
alternative the rude pklff and with n
celerity which equaled his I pushed tho
thing Into tho sea, and as It Moated gave
a final shovo and clambered In over tho
end
A cry fit rago rnso fioni the owner of
the primitive craft, ana an Instant later
his hqavy, stone tipped spoai grnz"d my
shoulder nnd burled ItsMf In the bow of
the boat besond. Then I grasped tho
paddle, and with feverish haste urged tho
awkward, wabbly thing out upon tho sm
faco of the tea
A glanco over my shoulder showed me
that the coppcr-colnicd ono had plunged In
after me and was Hwlinmlng rapidly In
pursuit.
Ills mighty strokes bade fair to closo up
the distance between v In ohort order, for

I hnd coveied somo hundred jards fiom

His hand was reaching upward for the
stern when I Vaw a s'cek, sinuous body
shoot from tho depths below. Tho man
saw It, too, and tho look of terror that
overspread his face assured mo that I
need have no further concern as to him,
for tho fear of certain death was In his
look ,
And then nbout him colled the great,
slimy folds of a hideous monster of that
prehistoric deep a mighty serpent of tho
sen, with ranged Jaws nnd darting forked
tongue, with bulging eyes nnd bony pio

foimed short, stout horns.
As 1 looked at thKt hopeless strugglo

'NEEDY FRAT BROTHER"
FAILS TO WORK GAME
H. B. Reed, A. T. 0. Man, Nips
Swindle of Alleged
"Gek"
A brand-new model confidence game,
worked out especially for fraternity men,
has arrived. Although it la very simple,
It Is risky work. The operator poses as a
fraternity brother and obtnlns n "brother
ly loan" from his victim, usually as much
an he can get.
Tho game first came to light last night
Horace II need, an Alpha Tau Omega
man, was working In his office late when
a shaggy looking Individual entered and
became friendly. The person, who Intro
duced himself ns Jackson Reynolds, of
Oakland, Cal , was a "bum," In Reed's
opinion Iteed wondered why and whence
enmo all tho friendliness, until the man,
seeing tho pin on Iteed'a vest, exclaimed:
"Why, I'm a member of your fraternity "
"What fraternity?" asked need "Your
fraternity," parried the man, looking
closely at the pin, "the Oeeps."
"Oh, you mean the Geks," replied Reed,
thinking of the G E. IC's, the Gamma
Etta Kappa Fraternity, a high school or
ganization "Yes." said the man
need then explained that he had mis
taken his pin, as they are similar, both
being Maltese crosses need, however,
knew the "Geks" well and didn't like to
refuse to aid one Reed excused himself
and phoned B. K Wolfe, grand recorder,
to look In the catalogue for a Jackson
neynolds In the Oakland Chapter. The
name was there and Reed was almost
convinced. The man then came to the
point, saying he vvas In financial dim.
cultles and asked Reed to telegraph his
parents at 3101 Summit avenue, Oakland,
for car fare to return home. Reed agreeil,
for the story carried conviction, and told
the man to call today for the money, which
amounted to nearly $100,
The man arrived on time today, but no
answer to the telegram. Two "Qek"
friends of need, Richard Scholes and
Wayne Steel, also arrived to talk with
the man Both "Geks" gave "neynolds"
the fraternity grip, but he failed to re
spond They also casually mentioned
several passwords In the course of their
conversation which were likewise Ignored.
They then were convinced that the man
was not a "Gek "
"neynolds" explained that ho had "only
been a member for tvvo months In 1801"
and had forgotten the signs A fraternity
man Is always a fraternity man and he
never forgets his grip and passwords.
The three then excused themselves to
phone to Wolfe again, and In their ab
sence the man fled. He did not wait for
the elevators, but rushed down four
flights of stairs and out Into the street,
where be disappeared,
