"Ami after the false god," he cried, "tho false rrophct," nnd he pointed nn rccuslnif flnjrer at Jn-don. Then his yes wandered to tho form of Jane Clayton. "And tho woman, too?" nHked Lu don.

"I will talk with her tonight after sho hns had n chn.nce to it.odltntc upon the consequences 0f nrouslng tho wrath of Jan-ben-Otho." He cast his eyes upward at tho sun. "Tho time approaches," ho said to Lu-don. "Prepare the sacrifice." Lu-don nodded to tho prlcstM who wero gathered about Tnrznn. They seized the npo-mnn nnd lifted him bodily to tho altar, whero they laid him upon his back with his head at the south end of tho monolith, but n few feet from whero Jnno Clnyton stood. impulsively nml bi-foro they could re strain her tho woman rushed forward and, bending quickly, kiwed her mate upon the forehead. "Good-by, John," she whimpered. "Good-by," ho answered, smiling. Tho prlestH scl.ed her nnd drnggi.nl her away. Lu-don hnnded the sncrl llclal knifo to Oborgnta. "I am the Great God," cried tho German; "thus fallcth tho dlvlno wrath upon all my enemies!" Ho looked up nt the mn nnd thou raised tho knifo high above his head. "Thus die tho blasphemers of God I" ho screamed, and at the same instant n hhnrp staccato note rang out above the silent, spellbound multitude. There was n screnmln? whlstlo in tho nlr nnd Jnd-ben-Otho crumpled forward across the body of his Intended victim. Again the f?ami! alarming nolwo and Lu-don fell, a third and Mo-snr crumpled to the ground. And now tho warriors and tho people, locating tho direction of this new nnd unknown sound, turned toward the western end of the court. Upon the summit of tho temple wnll they say two figures a Ho-don wnr rior nnd besido him an almc-t linked crcaturo of tho raco of Tnraw-jud-guru. Across his shoulders and about his blp. wero strnnge broad belt Btuddcd with benutiful cylinders that glinted in tho mid-day sun. nnd In his hands n shining thing of wood and metal, from tho end of which roso a thin wroth of bluc-grny smoke. And then the voleo of tho Ilo-dnn warrior rnmj clear upon thmo ears of Iho silent thron?. "ThiiH speaks the true Jad-hen-Otho," he cried, "through this his Mewicnger of Death. Cut tlu bonds ot the prinonois. Cut tho bonds of tho Dor-ul-Otho and "f Jn-don, King of l'al-ul-don. and of the woman who is tho mate of tho son of god."

I'an-sat crept closer, nnd then, with n midden lunge, he reached forth to K'ie tho handln of the blade, and even lis his clutching lingers vero poised above it, thu strange thing In tho hands of tho fltrango crea ture upon tho templo wall cried out Its n0i.i,in. ivnni nf doom and rnn-snt. the under priest, Hcroni-jlnj?, fell back i,n .im.i iindv nf his master. "Seize all tho tiilestH." cried Ta-den to the warriors, ''and let nouu hesitnte li'it Jnil-beii-Olho's meHsciiKer send forth still other bolts of lightning.
