He found the garden deserted, nor any sign of her he sought. Tlint bhe had been brought hither he had lenrncd from the conversation lie had overheard between Lu-don and Pan-sat, nnd he wai sure that thcie had been no time or opportunity for the high priest to re move her from tho palace grounds. The tardea he knew to bo devoted excluslve Ij to the uses of the princess and her nomen, and it was only reasonable to auume therefore that If Jane had been brought to the garden it could only bare been upon an order from Ko tan.

"You spoko the truth, stranger," sold tho chief who marched nt Tarzan's side, "for thero are tho wairiors with the priests among thcin, oven as you told us."

"It lies upon the eolith shore of the fecond lake below A-lur," replied tho chief, "the lake that Is, called Jnd-in-lul."

Ho tried to compel her to wnlk, but dcplto his threats and his abuse die would not voluntarily take a single step In thc direction in which he wished her to go. Instead she threw herself to the ground each time he sWght to place her upon her feet, nnu bo of necessity ho was compelled to carry her tnougu nt last tiu tied her nanus ana gagged her to cave liim-clf from fur ther Inccrations, for the beauty and slcndcrness of the woman belied her strength and courage. When ho came ut last to where his men had gathered Up wni glnd indeed to turn her over to a couple of stalwart warriors, but these, too, wore forced to carry her since Mo-tur's fear of tho vengeance of Ko ton's retainers would brook no delays. And thus they came down out of the hills from which A-lur Is carved, to the meadows that skirt the lower end of Jart-hen-lul, with Jnuc Clayton carried between two of Mo-snr's men. At tho edge of the lake lay a fleet of strong rnnoes, hollowed from the trunks of trees, their bows and sterns carved in tho semblnnco of grotesque beasts or birds and vividly colored by some mau ler In that primitive school of art, which fortunately Is not without its devotees today. Into tho stern of one of these capoes the warriors tossed their captivo nt a nlgn from Mo-hnr, who came and stood beside her as tho warriors were finding their places In tho canoes and selecting their paddles. "Come, beautiful one," he said, "let uh bo friends and you shall not bo harmed. You will find Mo-sar n kind master If you do his bidding," nnd, thinking to make a good impres Ion on her, ho removed tho gng from her mouth and tho thongs from her n-rlsts, knowing well that hho could not !enpo surrounded us she was by his warriors, and presently, when! they tvero out on the lake, she would be iih safely imprisoned as though he held her ueiiinu unrs. And so the fleet moved off to the nccomponlmcnt of the gentle splashing of ni hundred middles, to follow the windings of th rivers and lakes through which tho waters of the Valley of Jail-licu-Otho empty into the gicat moiimi to the south: The warriors, letting iinpn one knee, faced the bow and In tho last canoo Mo-sar, tiring of his fruitless attempts to win resjionsrs from his sullen captive, squatted lu the bot tom of the ennoe with his hack toward her and resting his head upon the gun tvnlo sought sleep. Thus they moved In silence between tho yerdurc-clnd bonks of the little river through which the waters of .lab-ben-lul emptied now in thu moonlight, now in dense slindow wheio great trees overhung the Mrcnm, and nt Inst out upon the waters of another lake, thc black fihnrcs of which heuined far awny under the welid' Influence of a moon light night.
