Police Court Chronicle
Joe Dugan says that the heat always
licks him. Rising temperatures mako him
do and say things that he's sorry for.
Sometimes he gets relief In oratory. Often
the heat makes him denunciatory. It af
fected him In this way when ho saw a
nattily dressed man pulling a cigar while
he was getting his shoes shlned near 2d
nd Christian streets.
Shaking his finger under the stranger's
nose, Joe shouted, "It's extravagant guys
like you who won't shlno your shoes and
smoke fancy cigars that makes money short.
Tor Just wastln' a dime right now that
would buy me a sandwich and a cup of
coffee or a freo lunch."
The man puffed silently.
"What's more," added Joe, "I'll bet you're
Sot some swell job where yer don't do
sothln' and git a pile of dough fer It,
while I has to sling a pick and toss a
hovel Just to git me bare eats."
The man still smoked.
Enraged, Dugan kicked the bootblack box
en which the man's well-shod foot was rest
ing, Into the street and pulled the cigar
from his mouth..
The stranger knocked him down.
When Joe struggled to his feet he saw a
friendly brick. He reached for it. but be
fore he could inflict any damage a cop ar
rived and took him before Magistrate Imber.
"It's time to brtag about equal salaries
for men of the same age," said Joe, "and I
was Just arguing me point on this when
this swell guy blew Bmoke in me face. I'm
Kolng to try and change the whole working
condition of the country and I tell you ,
"It takes too long," Bald the Judge. "We
cannot run the country to mitt ourselves.
What you need Is a rest from the sun.
Tou can prepare your campaign while rest
ing for nve days in the County Prison."

of many feet came to us from various parts
of tho temnle. 1 knew that I was needed
there, but I dared not leave Dejnh Thorls.
nor dared I take her with mo Into tho tur
moil and danger of battle.
At last I bethought me of tho pits from
which I had just emerged. Why not secret
her thero until I could return and fetch her
away In safety and forever from this aw
ful place. I explained my plan to her.
For a moment she clung to me.
"J cannot bear to be parted from you
now even for a moment, John Carter," she
said. "I shudder at the thought of being
alono again where that terrible creature
might discover me. You do not know her.
"Xono can Imagine her ferocious cruelty
who has not witnessed her dally acts for
more than half a year. It lias taken me
nearly all this time to realize even the
things that I have seen with my own eyes.
"I shall not leave you then, my princess,
She was silent for a moment, then she
drew my face to hers and kissed me.
"Go, John Carter." she said. "Our son
Is there, and tho soldiers of Helium, fight
ing for the princess of Helium. Whero they
are you shbuld be.
"I must not think of myself now, but of
them and of my husband's duty. I may not
stand In the way of that. Hide me In the
pits and go." , . , ,
I led her to the door through which I
had entered the chnmber from below. Thero
I pressed her dear form to me, and then,
though it tore my heart to do It, nnd
filled me only with the blackest shadows
of terrible foreboding. I guided her cross
the threshold, kissed her once again, and
closed the door upon her.
Without hesitating longer I hurried from
the chnmber in the direction of the great
est tumult. Scarce half a dozen chambers
had I traversed before I came upon the
theatre of a fierce struggle.
The blacks were massed at tho entrance
to a great chamber, where they were at
tempting to block the further progress of
a body of red men toword the Inner Bacretl
precincts of the templf.
Coming from within as I did. I found my
self behind the blacks, and without waiting
to even estimate their numbers or tbe fool
hardiness of my venture, I charged qwlftly
acros? the chamber and fell upon them
from the rear with my keen longsword.
As I struck the first blow I cried aloud:
"For Helium!" And then I rained cut after
cut upon the surprised warriors, while the
reds without took heart at the sound of
my voice, and with shouts of "John Carter!
John Carter!"' redoubled their efforts so ef.
fectually that before the blacks could re
cover from their temporary demoralization
their ranks were broken and the red men
had burst Into the chamber.
With Carthorls at my side I fought for
the red men of Barsoom and for their
total emancipation from the throttling
bondage of a hideous superstition.
Back and forth across the room we
surged, until the floor was ankle deep In
blood and dead men lay so thickly there
that half the time we stood upon their
bodies as we fought As we swung to
ward the great windows which overlooked
the Gardens of Issps, a sight met my gaze
which sent a wave of exultation over me.
"Look!" I cried. "Men of the First
.Born, look!"
For an Instant the fighting ceased and,
with one accord every eye turned In the
direction 1 had Indicated, and the sight
Ihey saw was, one no man of the First
Born hadever imagined could be.
Across the gardens, from side to side,
stood a wavering line of black warriors,
while beyond them and forcing them, ever
back was a reat horde of green warriors
astride their mighty thoata. And as we
watched, one, fiercer and more grimly ter
rible than his fellows, rode forward from
the rear, and as he came he shouted some
fierce command to his terrible legion.
It was Tars Tarkas, Jeddak of Thark,
and as be couched his great 40-foot, metal
shod lance, we saw his warriors do like
wise. Then tt was that we interpreted his
command. X
Twenty yards now separated the green
men from the black line Another word
from the. great Thark, and with a wild and
terrifying battlecry the green warriors
charged.
For a moment he black line held, but
only for a motneat. then the fearsome beasts
that bore equally terrible riders passed com

oons o
red men. Tho green horde broke to Bur
round tho temple. Tho red men charged
for tho Interior, and then we turned to
contlnuo our Interrupted battle, but our foes
had vanished.
My first thought was of Dcjah Thorls.
Calling to Carthorls that I had found hla
mother, I started on a run toward the
chamber whero I had left her, with my
hoy close beside mo. After us camo those
of our little force who had survived tho
bloody conflict.
Tho moment I entered tho room I saw
that some ono hnd been thero slnco I had
left. A silk lay upon tho floor. It had
not been thero before.
Thero were also a dagger and several
metal ornaments strown nbout as though
torn from their wearer In a struggle. But,
worst of all, tho doorway leading to tho
pits whero I had hidden my princess was
n'Jar. '
With a bound I was before It nnd thrust
ing It open rushed within. Dejnh Thorls
had vanished. I called her name nloud
agnln and again, but there was no re
sponse. I think in that instant I hovered
upon the verge of insanity. I do not recall
what I said or did, hut I know that for
an insUnt I was seized with tho rago of
a maniac.
"Issus 1" I cried. "Issus ! Whero Is
iscus? Seach the temple for her, but let
no man harm her but John Carter. Car
thorls, where are tho apartments of Issus?"
"This way," cried tho boy, and without
waiting to know that I had heard him ho
dashed off at breakneck speed farther Into
tho bowels of tho temple.
As fast as he went, however, I was still
beside him. urging him on to greater speed.
At last we came to a great carved door,
and through this Carthorls dashed a foot
ahead of mo. Within we camo upon such
a scene as I had witnessed within the
temple once before the throne of Issus
with the reclining slaves, and about it the
ranks of soldiery.
We did not even give the men a chance
to draw so quickly were we upon them.
With a single cut I struck down two in
the front rank, And then by tho mere
weight and momentum of my body I rushed
through the two remaining ranks and sprang
upon the dais beside the carved sorapu3
throne.
The repulsive creature squatting thero
In terror attempted to escape me and leap
Into a trap behind her. But this time I
was not to be outwitted by any such petty
subterfuge.
Before she had half risen I had grasped
her by the unit, and then as I saw the
guard starting to make a concerted rush
upon me from all sides I whipped out my
dagger and, holding It close to that vile
breast, ordered them to halt.
"Back!" I cried to them. "Back! The
first black foot that is planted upon this
platform sends my dagger into Issus'
heart."
For an Instant they hesitated. Then an
officer ordered them back, while from the
outer corridor there swept Into the throne
room at the heels of my little party of sur
vivors a full thousand red men under Kan
tos Kan, Hor Vastus, and Kodar.
"Where Is Dejah Thorls?" 1 cried to the
thing within my hands.
For a moment her eyes roved wildly about
the scene beneath her, I think that It took
a moment for tbe true condition to make
any impression upon her she could not at
first realize that tho temple had fallen be
fore the assault of men of the outer world.
When she did there must have come too
a terrible realization of what It meant to
her the loss of power, humiliation, the ex
posure of the fraud and Imposture which
she had for so long played upon her own
people.
There was Just one thing needed to com
plete the reality of the picture she was
seeing, and that was added by the highest
noble of her realm the high priest flf the
religion tho prime minister of her gov
ernment "Issus, Goddess of Death and of Life
Eternal," he cried, "rise In tho might of
thy righteous wrath and with one single
wave of thy omnipotent hand strike dead
the blasphemers! Let not one escape.
"Issus, thy people depend upon thee.
Daughter of the Lesser Moon, thou only
art all powerful. Thou only canst save thy
people. I am done. We await thy will.
Strike!"
And then it was that she went mad. A
screaming, gibbering- maniac writhed In my
grasp. It bit and clawed and scratched In
Impotent fury And then it laughed a
weird and terrible laughter. that frose the
