Jlovlnjr -ritlrcly nround the bulldlnif he

Hhcr wlndown. but they were ilml
hirlv barred. He Htopped often to look
end listen, but he nw no one, nnd
the soiiiuIh thnt he hrnrd were 'too far
ivnv to cauMe him any apprehension.
Up b aneed above him nt the wall of
the D-illillng. Kike ho many of the
other wnlli of the city, rmlnw- and

Hut ho found the bulhy nun nwKwaid

ko he laid It aside upon the ground
at tho foot of the wall. Nimbly ho
wended to find tho window s of the
iccond floor not only barred. 1ml cur
Kiinrd within. Ho did not delny Iohr

up nnu noticed wax roiiRlily dome

even Hllghtl.v thnt of the
Hi rone-room, bars would not be ncco
Miry upon these npertureh, since no
one could reach them fiom the floor
of the room.
There was but :i tliiRle question:
would they he lur?e enmih to admit
tlie tiropd hhouldei'.'j of the npc-manV
He pmiHcd iisiiln nt the third floor
and l-ori'. In spite of the hntiRinRs, lie
miw that the interior wits lighted and
siinultnneoiis'y there csiiip to IiIm nos
irils from within a fcent that stripped
from him temporarily any lemnant of
civilization that mislit Iiiixp rcinnlncd
nnd left him a fierce nnd terrible bull
of the jungles of Iorehak. So Midden
and complete was the metutnorphoMiH
thnt there olmost broke from the snvnRe
lips the hideous challenge of his kind,
but the cunning brute mind snved him
this blunder.
And now he heard voices within
the voice of I.u-don he could hnve
(worn, lemnniling. And haughty nnd
disdainful .nine the answering words,
though uttir hopelcs-ntss spoke in th'1
tones of tills other voice which brought
Tarzan to the pinnacle of frenzy.
Tho dome with Its possible apertures
was forgotten. Kvcry consideration of
stealth nnd quiet was cast aside us
the npe-innn drew back his mighty fist
and struck a single terrific blow upon
the bais of the small window before
Mm. n blow that sent tiie bars nnd the
casing that held them clattering to the
floor of the np.irtmont wihlu.
Instantly Tarzan dived headforemost
through the nperture. carryinRthe hang
ings of antelope hide with him to tlie
lloor below. Leaping to his feet lie tore
the cutnngllng pelt from about his
bend only to find himself in utter dark
ness and in silence. He cnlled aloud a
name that had not passed his lips for
mnny weary months. ".lane. .lane,"
ho cried, "where are yon?" Hut there
was only silence in reply.
Again nnd again he cnlled. RropInR
with outstretched hnnds through the
Stygian blackness of the room, his
nostrils assailed and his brain tantalized
by the delic.ite effluvia that had first as
sured him that his mate had been with
in tliis very room. And he hnd heard
her dear voice combating the base de
mands of tlie vile priest. Ah. If he hnd
but acted with greater cnution ! If lie
nnd but continued to move with quiet
and stealth he might even nt tills mo
ment be holding her in his nrms while
the body of I.u-don, beneath his foot,
spoke eloquently of vengeance achieved.
Hut there was no time now for idle
self-reproaches.
He stumbled blindly forwnrd, group
ing for he knew not what, till suddenly
the floor benenth him tilted and he shot
downward into a darkness even more
utter thnn that nbove. He felt his
body strike n smooth surface nnd ho
realized that lie was hurtling down
ward as through a polished chute while
from above there came the mocking
tones of n tuunting lnugh and the voleo
of I.u-don screamed nftcr him: ''He
turn to thy father. O Dor-ul-Otho!"
Tho npe-mnn enme to a sudden and
painful stop upon a rocky floor. DI
lectly before him wns nn oval window
crossed by mnny bars, and beyond he
saw the moonlight playing on the waters
of the blue lake below. Simultaneously
he was conscious of a familiar odor in
the nir of the chamber, which it quick
glnnec revealed In the semi -darkness ns
of considerable proportion.
It wns tiio faint but unmistakable
odor of the gryf, and now Tarzan stood
silently listening. At first he detected
no sounds other thnu those of the city
thnt came to him through the window
overlooking the Inko; but presently,
faintly, as though fiom a distance, he
heard the shuttling of padded feet along
n stone pavement, and as he listened he
was a win o that the sound approached.
Nearer and nearer it cume, and now
even the breathing of the beast wis
audible. Evidently attracted bj the
noise of his descent into its cavernous
let rent it was approaching to investi
gate. He could not see it, but he knew
thnt It wns not far distant, and then,
drafcningly there reverberated through
those gloomy corridors the mud bellow
of the gryf.
Awnre of the poor eyesight of the
beast, and his own eyes now giown ac
customed to tlie daiknesa of the cavern,
the ape-ninn sought to elude the in
furiated charge which he well knew
no living crciituru could withstand.
Neither did lie dare risk the chance of
experimenting upon this strange gryf
with the tactics of the Tor-o-don that
he had found so efficacious upon that
other occasion when Ms Ife and liberty
had been the stakes for which he cast.
In ninny respects the conditions were
dissimilar. Heforo, In broad daylight,
he had been able to uppronch the gryf
under normnl conditions in its natural
statu, nnd the crvf Itself wns nun Hint

"Do you know where she is hidden

"No," said I'an-nt-lec. "How

"There wns only one," asked Tar

"No, they speak of another who
cams with her, but none seems to know

Tanan nodded. "Thank you. Pan
