For, you see, there. Is still some cash needed to build on tho property pur chased. I think I will quote to you the rest of this letter of tho secretary, for It tells about the location, tho pioposed buildings, etc.: "The Chestnut nnd Market etieet car lines, with their diverging north 'nnd south branches, pass within half a sqtin.ro of tho site, nnd tho Nine teenth street lino within nn even shorter distance: while tho subway station at Nineteenth nnd Market streets, within the paino radius, gives access to the exist ing nnd ptoposed high-speed lines, con necting with nil the outlying districts of the city nnd suburbs. "Tho buildings nhcady on the situ me extraordinarily available for use In tho construction of the clubhouse, which, If completed In accordance with (copies of plans have been sent to each member) plans, will tnkc the shape of n building Ixty-slv foot in front nnd ouo hundred nd four feet In depth, with one street Jn front and another In the rear nnd n tcn-foot-wlde space on each side, nffoid lng light nnd nlr on nil four sides." The pioposed stage Is to be twenty-five feet deep nnd forty-eight feet wide, -they tell me, with n proscenium opening of thirty feet, the same ns that of the Adelphl Theatre. Thero will be seating room for 400 persons and there will bo ten dressing rooms, storage space for eccnery nnd properties. Thero Is also a plan to make tho seats removable, that the floor may be cleared for receptions, dances or other entertainments. The plans also show a library, dressing room for guests nnd n kitchen on tho first floor; nnd a clubroom, rehearsal room nnd delightful solarium on the second floor. Altogether, you will agree, the Plays and Players will have the wish of their hearts for there, many years when this clubhouse Is finally accomplished. Further plans will bo discussed at the club nights tonight and tomorrow at the present playroom on Eighteenth street.

After wo had eaten and rested Ja came to see us with a number of his headmen. They listened attentively to my story, vvbli'h Included a uariation of the events leading to the foimatlnn of the federated kingdoms, tho battle with the Mahal s, my journey to tlio outer world and my leturn to Peflueldar and seaich for Sari and my mate. Ja told me that tho Mezopa had heard somethliiK of the federation and had been much iutetested In It He had even koiic so far as to send a party of warrlois to waid Sail tn Investlfjato the leports and to arrange for tho entrance of Anoioo Into tho empire In case It appeared that thero was any ttuth In the minors that one of the alms of the federation was tho over, thiow of the Mahal s. Tho deloRatlon had met with a party of S.icoths. As there bad been a truce Ve tween the Mahals and tho Mezops for many generations, they camped w 1th" these warriors of the leptlles. from whom they learned that the fedeiatlon had gone to pieces So the party letutned to Anoruc When I fchowed Ja our map and or. plained Its put pose t him ho was much Interested Tho location of Anoroc, the Mountains of tho Clouds, tho river and the strip of seacoast wero nil familiar to him. He quickly Indicated the position of the Inland sea, and, close beside It, the city of Phutia, where one of the poweiful Mahar nations had Its seat He likewise showed us whcio Sari should bo and carried his own coast lino ns far ninth nnd south as It was known to him. His additions tn the map convinced us that Greenwich lay upon the vciro of this same sea. and thnt It mlsht be reached by water more easily than by the arduous crossing of tho mountains or tho danger ous approach thiough Phutra, which lay almost directly In lino between Anotoc and Greenwich to the noithwost. If Sari lay upon tho same water then tho shore line must bend far back toward Ihe southwect of Greenwich an assump tion which, bv the way, wo found later to be true. Also. Sari was upon a lofty plateau at the southern end of a mighty gulf of the Great Ocean. Tho location which Ja gave to distant Amoz puzzled us, for It placed it duo north of Greenwich apparently In mldocean. As Ja bad never been bo far and knew- only of Amoz thiough heaisay, we thought that ho must be mistaken ; but ho was nut. Amoz lies directly north of Greenwich across the mouth of tho mine gulf ns that upon which Sail Is The sense of direction nnd location of these pilmitivo Pellucluarlans is little short of uncanny, as I have had occasion to re ntal!; In tho past. You may tako ono of them to the uttermost ends of hts world, to places of which ho has never even henrd, yet without sun or moon or stars to guide him, without map or compass, ho will travel straight for homo In the shortest direction. After several long councils It was de cided that In order to expedite matters Perry should return to tho prospector with a strong patty of Mezops and fetch the freight I had brought from the outer world. Ja and his wairlors were much impressed by our flicarms, and were also anxious to build boats with sails As wo had arms at the ptospector and nlso books on boat building we thought that It might provo an excellent Idea to start these naturally maritime people upon the construction of a well-built navy of Btanch snlllng vessels. I waB -sure that with definite plans to go by Perry could oversee tho construction of an adequate flotilla: I was to proceed to Sari and while prose cuting my search for Ulan attempt at the saino time the rehabilitation of the fed eration. Perry vvjis going as far as pos sible by water, with the chances that the entire trip might be made In that manner, ns proved to be the fact. With a couple of Mezops as companions I started for , Sari. In order to avoid crossing the principal range of the Moun tains of the Clouds we took n route that passed a little vvn.y south of Phutra. We had eaten four times and slept once, and were, as my companions told me, not far from the great Mahar city, vvhentvve were suddenly confronted by a considerable band of Sagoths, They Old not attack us, owlnr tpithe peace which cxUta between the Matters and tu., Menoptt,, but .lj.vmttitmMk'Vi HJf looked upon me with consldeiable sus picion My friends told them that I was a stranger fiom u remote country, nnd as wo bad previously planned against eh H contingency 1 pietended Igttoiance of the language which the human beings nf lel luci'lar employ In conversing with tho gorlll.i-llke soldiery of the Mahars. I noticed, anil not without misgivings, that the leader of the Sagoths eyed mo with an expression that betokened partial tecog ultloti I was .sine that he had seen me befnie tinting the period of my Incarcer iitioti In Phutra and that he was trying to recall my Identity. It woiried me not u little I was ex tremely thankful when we bade them ndieu and continued upon our journe.v. Several times during tho next few marches I became acutely conscious of tho senvatlvn of being watched by unseen eyes, but 1 did not speak of my suspicions to my companions. Later I had teason to le giet my leticence. for Well, this Is how It happened- We bad killed an antelope and afte. eating our fill I hail laid down to sleep -The Pcllucld.irl.ins. who seem seldom ir ever to tequltc sleep. Joined me In this Instance, for we bad had a very trying match along tho northern foothills of the Mountains of tho Clouds, and now with their bellies tilled with meat they seemed ready to slumber. When I awoko It was with a start to find a couplo of huge Sagoths astride me. They pinioned my arms and legs, and later chained my w lists behind my back Then they let me up I saw my companions; the biavo fol lows lay dead whero tliev had slept. Jav ellned to death without a chance at self defense. 1 was furious thteatened 'the S.igoth leader with all borts of dlie leprlsals; but when he heard mo speak the hjbrld lan guage that Is tho medium of communication between his kind and the human men of tho Inner world lie only grinned, as much ns In say, "I thought so !" They bad not taken my revolvers or ammunition away fiom mo because they did not know what they were; but my heavy title 1 had lost. They simply left it whei'o It had lain beside me. So low In tho scale of Intelllgeme are they that they had hot sulllclciit Inteiest in this strange object oven to fetch It along with them I knew fiom the direction of our match that they were taking me to Phutra Om there I did not need much of an Imagina tion to picture what my fale would be. It was tho arena and a wild thag or tierce tarag for me unless the Mahars elected to take mo to the pits. In that caso my end would bo no more certain, though Infinitely more boirible and painful, for In tho pits I should bo subject to cruel ivlseetlon. Prom what I had once seen of their methods in the pits of Phutra I knew them to be the opposite of merci ful, whereas In the arena I should bo quickly dispatched by some savage beast. Arrived at the undei ground city, I was taken immediately before a slimy 3luh.il. When the creature had received the tepott of tho Sagoth Its cold e.ves glistened with malice and balled ns they were tinned balefully upon me. I knew then that my Identity had been guessed With a show of excitement that I had never befoio seen evinced by a member, of tho dominant race of Pellucldar tho Mahar hustled me nvvay, beavllj guarded, through the main avenue of tho city to one of tho principal buildings. Hero we were ushered into a gieat hall whero presently many Mahars gathered. In utter silenco they conveised, for they have no oral speech, slnco they are without auditory nerves. Their method of com munication Perry has likened to the pro jection of a sixth sense Into a fourth dimension, where It becomes cognizable lo the sixth sense of their audience. He that as It may. however. It was evi dent that I was tho subject of discussion, and from the hateful looks bestowed upon me not a particularly pleasant sabject How long I waited for thi,lr decision I do not know, but It must have been a veiy long time. Finally one of the Sagoths ad dressed me. Ho was acting as Intel pi eter for his masters. "The Mahars will spare your life." ho said, "and telease you on ono condition." "And what Is that condition?' I asked, though I could guess Its teims. "That you return to them that which you stole from the pits of Phutra when jou killed tho four Malms and escaped," he replied. I had thought that that would bo It. The great secret upon which depended the con tinuance of tho Mahar race was safely hid whero only Man nnd 1 knew. I ventured to imagine that they would have given me much mote than my liberty lo have It safely In their keeping again; but after that what? Would they keep their piomlses? 1 doubted It. And with the seciet of artificial propagation once moie in their hands their numbers would soon be made so to overrun tho world of Pellucldar that there could bo no hope for the eventual supremacy of tho human race, the causo for which I so devoutly hoped, for which I had consecrated my life, and for which I was now willing to give my life. Yes! In that moment as I stood before the heartless tribunal 1 felt that my life would be a very little thing to give could It save to the human race of Pellucldar tho chance to come Into Its own by Insuring the eventual extinction of the hated, power ful Mahars. "Cornel" exclaimed the Sagoth. "The mighty Mahars await your reply." "You may say to them," 1 answered, "that I shall not tell them where the great secret is hid." When this bad been translated to them there was a great beating of reptilian wings, gaping of sharp-fanged Jaws and hideous hlsslnf.
