Barak, a loyal mute servant of Lou-Lou’s family, rescues her from the asylum. The Rev. Luke Quail, y companies nd Fortesque to where he had a militant Lou-Lou the Island once been 1 a 1 to a mission, and where his wi ad been killed and his little laughter had disappeared, following Dyak pirates. While Lou- Lou and her party are on the way Franks, an exiled Virginian who known to have been friendly to Lou-Lou and who is suspected of knowing the whereabouts of the old Sultan's treasure {s found dead. He has been stabbed with a dagger which had been hidden in the old Sultan's tomb. Trehearne, a commercial agent and friend of Franks, is visited soon after by Cerise, who induces him to try with her the operation of a Ouija board. Within a few hours after the arrival of Lou-Lou and her party, Trehearne lies, unable ‘to give a lucid account of the causes leading up to his death except to make known by signs that he had been poisoned, and able only by a supreme effert to say the words “Franks note.” He {s referring to a note entrusted to him by Franks to be given to Lou-Lou in the eyent of his death. Rais Hamed Been Yusuf, owner of the schooner “Ciazelle’ and conspir- ator with Zahri discusses with Hvar- son the faflure, so far, of their plot. Hvarson declares he values Lou-Lou more than the treasure of Sibuko. Lou-Lou assumes the government, banishes Hvarson and Hamed and pardons Zahri. Barak is captured by Hamed’s men and taken away on his boat, the Gazelle. After torturing Barak, Hamed sus- pends him in a net of metal links beneath the bowsprit of his vessel. Fortesque, wandering about the Bazaris is called by Cerise and in- yited into her house. As he is about to eat some sherbert which she offers him, Lou-Lou and some of her guards enter the house, Lou-Lou dismisses Fortesque and forces Cerise to eat the sherbert she has prepared for Fortesque Capt. Wrexham, hired by Hvar- son, Jures Lou-Lou, Quail and For- tesque on board his vessel and brings them, captives, to Hvarson's island. Again the whale boat grounded. Luke Quail rose and stepped out holding the hand of Lou-Lou. She olowed. They turned and looked at Hvarson, and stood motionless. Wrexham jumped in, and the boat shoyed off. There were no farew Wrexham's boat swept out to the Nautilus. A few foments later the trim ttle craft went leaping away down-wind 1 bird.

Over this he lifted Fortesque with une hand, ay the hanging man a little side-swing. and dropped him, Fortesque fell with a crash upon a lower deck—a deck where onco| slaves had rotted. He lay there, unmoving, jarred but unhurt by the slight fall, From the deck overhead came the pad-pad of bare fect, drowned presently by a rumbling nolse, This nolse came from the cylinders of tron, which were being brought forth and fired. Little little Fortesque’s eyes grew somewhat accustomed to the place. He himself lay just to one aide of the hatch-opening; down this opening blazed a square shaft of blinding sunlight. A noise came to him—a harsh, In- articulate nojse that seemed human inhuman, At some distance he saw a deeper blackness against th blackness, and presently he imagined queer, terrifying shape was crouched there Then something clinked and rat tled, as though loose metal were threshed about. Suddenly something that looked like a net, yet struck the planks like metal, came into his view and was whisked away again. After this, silence. Now, overhead, the patch of sun- light was darkened for a moment A figure dropped from the deck above, and stood beside Fortesque. It was the human gorilla Bantok.
