STAR BAKERY NOW IN NEW'LOCATION; OWNER HAS FAITH The Star Bakery has moved to the quarters formerly occupied by the Northern Light Pool Room. which building has been completely remodeled. The property was pur- chased three months ago by J. A. Safoulis, the owner of the Star Bakery, whose increased business necessitated larger space, and who desired a location farther up town. In addition to the bakery the property includes the premises oc- cupied by the White Spot Cafe, the Valet Cleaners and the Alstrom News Stand. Mr. Safoulis has lived in Alaska 22 years. He was nine years in Anchorage, and also lived in Fair- banks and Cordova. He has been a resident of Juneau four years, has unbounded confidence in the town’s future, and is backing his faith with his finance. The public is invited to visit an old firm in a new place, where it will find a large, varied and appetizing dis- play of the very best in bakery goods. The work of renovating and brightening up the new location ; was done by Harry Ellingen, car-! penter and contractor, Andy l.ager-' gren of Andy's Cabinet Shop, who’ had charge of all' cabinet work, and H.

Meanwhile Frank Grahame and @ native boy. plung- ing into the fungle on @ search for Grahame’s aviator friend, Bill Langton. stumble across McGrath, one of the movie technicians who had vreceded Janice. MoGrath had been with Ortega. but had been ambushed and badly wounded. Grahame ealls to McGrath, and aets no answer, Chapter 24 THE SUBLEVADOS feet. He crosced himself. Gra- hame took off h's khaki sun-helmet and set it beside the overturned wa- ter pan. McGrath's eyes stared zlassily at nothing, “Poor devil,” said Grahame. “1 wish he had let me give him the hypo.” They buried McGrath fn “the swamp. Returning, they re-lighted their fire. Aithough there was plenty of game about, they dared not risk 2 shot, so ate a meal of cold beans and meat. They slept for several hours. Gra- hame decided th .t for comfort’s sake the troupe ahkead of them would travel all night Juan agreed that this was probabiy true, and if they began to follov. about midnight, they could comfortably and safely follow the trail for at least six hours. They awoke at eleven Juan slipped off into the darkness and In a little while returned with a large bush turkey dangling by his side, He grinned when Grahame questioned him. “You heard this one this after- | noon. He sleeps in a tree not far | trom here. Tonight—" he chuckled. ‘—he sleeps with us.” The boy dressed and cooked the bird — tropic refrigeration. The cooked meat would last them through the next day. They ate; and began their march southward along the trail. Grahame pondered upon what McGratb had told him, The taking of moving pic- tures in this cruel ccuntry seemed a little incredible. 1t it were authentic ruins they wanted, there were several within a day’s train ride of Merida, the capi- tal of Yucatan, and a civilized place. There was no reasor for striking south ot Merida into this unknowsn country. The wounded man kad mentioned the name Ortega. While the name was a common enough one, never- theless Frank began to have a pre sentiment that the name was re | zurring too often to be entirely co- incidence; It was an Ortega whom e had never seen that had been in- volved—he still thought—in Jan ice's abduction in Hollywood. It was Ortega who nad landed the arms at the hacienda on the east coast. While that had happened two weeks before, still, Ortega in the launch, could have been back at Merida in three days. And it had becn frem Merida that still another Ortega had guided the man McGrath in a southeasterly di- rection to this spot. That s, if 1t had been another of the same name. Frank shook his nead in puzzlement. The dying man had said: others were to follow. Probably a whole group of actors and techaical men, Women, too, most probably, He was struck with a sudden chill. Janice Kent might be among them! Supposing this was Myberg's com- pany of people come to Yueatan for location. He remembered now that Spin Winslow had said that Myberg Itked authentic backgrounds and that this man, Ortega, was to have gulded them to where bigger and better ones were. This would be a beastly. place tor women if the plan was to come here. He uttered an exclamation that was balt f{rritation, halt fear. Juan paused but at Grahame's gruft word continued on. McGRATH bad said that his Or- tega had bee:x captured by the Indians who had assaulted them. Supposing, then, that he wds obe and the same with the man who had landed the guns. Because of that he would have some sinister under: standing with tlLese fungle people and would not be harmed. He might even be allowed to return to Merida where he could make plaga to bring the remainder of the motion picture people into this piace—and to their destruction! . He speculated upon the motive, then diemissed the traln of thought as befng nnimportant Plenty of mo- tive for a criminal. Robbery for one, ransom perhaps, although the lat ter seemed improbable since Mo Grath had been murdered without a chance to buy himselt out of his |ifculty. Were there women alon; !there would be another possibility. > | Although the night was cool, the ‘GODDESS by Herbert J.n-on sweat started trickling from his forehead, and the palms of his hands were slippery. He called ahead to Juan, who slowed his pace untit his back was but a yard or two ahead of Grahame. “Tell me, son,” b said. “Have you ever seen these people who live in the jungle?” “Often. We call them sublevados —unconquered ones, The men come to the coast at the right season and bring blocks of chicle which they sell to the agents.’ “What do they look like?” “A poor lot.” Juan spoke contem- tuously. “Barbarians. None have ever heard of the Virgin of Guada- lupe, or of the Church, for that mat- ter. They will burn in Hell, all of them, which is a pity perhaps, since some of them are white. I have even seen blond ones.” “What!" exclaimed Grahame. “Did you say white?” “8i, genor, white.” He chuckled in the darkness. “Ah, those Spaniards were great travelers. They tell me Cortez himself was rubio, blond.” “Have you ever seen their wo- men?"” *“No,” answered Juan shortly. “Nor has any other Mexican either. That is the reasom, 1 think, why these jungle people hate us so. When Diaz was president, he sent troops in here who acted badly. That was years ago. They were all killed.” “H-m-m.” Grahame strode along in silence. Blood calls to blood. It there were renegade whites living in some jungle sanctuary, perhaps there was more than just robbery behind this Ortega's plan to bring the motion picture troupe—with wo- men—into this inaccessible place. Grahame's belief was growing that McGrath's Ortega and the one who bad taken him ir his launch to the east coast were of one and the same identity. Some instinct told him also that the Ortega of Hollywood might be the same man. He remembered how the man had run from him, his arm dangling. He saw again the white jacket he wore showing plainly against the dark background as he sped toward the back trail. As he recalled how he had had this targzt in the sights of his auto- matie, and then had lowered the arm, he sighed. He wondered 1if ever he could shoot : mau in the back, no matter how richly that man might deserve killing. If this man were Ortega, and he was in the business of luring men and women into nelpless situations for the purposes of murder, rob- bery and worse, he should be ex- terminated like a rattle-snake—on sight. HE night grew cooler. Toward morning, the jingle gave way to a chain of open savannahs, through which the trail followed. Deer bound- ed up from the tall grasses, bird-life made a sleepy «in; once a dark shadow flitted ahead of them, some kind of large cat, thought Grahame as he swung his rifle’s muzzle for- ward, “No!" called Juan sharply. Jaguar! Dangerous, You may only wound t!” A half hour later abruptly dawn broke over the tres tops. Juan turned his head questioningly. “Not yet,” the American replied to the unspoken Mterrogation. “It will_be cool for another couple of hours.” They strode opward. Already the mists of morning arose with humid promise of approaching heat. A small hill thrust upward out of the brush and palmetto, ahead of them. Gra- hame wondered at its abrupt topog- raphy {n a.country that for some miles-had been quite flat. He stopped to adjust his pack. Then from somewhere ahead of them bedlam broke loose. 4 First were two shots closely spaced, followed by a rattle of sustained rifie fire. There was shouting, and a drum- ming of hoofs. Giahame grasped Juan by the arm and pulled him off the trail. Careening down the trafl toward them came a charging barro, its pack lurching and swaying with each convulsive leap. As it galloped by, Grahame saw the broken tether rope dangling from its neck. With back bent the man and the boy slipped away from the trail to ward the small hill that Grabame had noticed a few minutes before. As they crawled up-the steep sides of the hill, the rifle fire ceased, bul from' the side of the hill opposite them they heard the sounds of many people moving about. The hill. wat difficult to climb without noise. Pjeces of stone of comveptiona rectangular shape lay. about. Thir was evidently some forgotten Mayat edifice, Grahame believed. as he care tully tested each upward step; A jun gle-hidden fragment built by a los' race. The country had many such.
