The thrill of battle, the lure of | the desert, jungle and mountains, all blend in 4 | this vivid story of uncanny mystery. (Coprriht, 1920, by Bdgar Rice Burroughs.) CHAPTER L Hee FRITZ SCHNEIDER trudged wearily through the sombre alsies of the dark forest. Sweat rolled down his bullet head and stood upon his heavy jowls and bull neck. His leu. tenant marched beside him while Unterlieutenant von Goss brought up the rear, following with a handful of askaris the tired and all but exhausted porters whom the black soldiers, following the example of their white officer, encouraged with the sharp points of bayonets¥and the motal-shod butts of rifles, There were no porters within reach of Hauptmann Schneider so he vented his Prussian spleen upon the askpris nearest at band,~yet with greater ciredmapection since these men bore loaded rifles—anf the three white men where alone with them in the heart of Africa, Ahead of the Hauptmann marched half of his company, behind him ‘the other half—thus were the dangers of the savage jungle minimized for the German captain, At the forefront. a Save C ks tec tte ee, TeUnBNOO | that tle jpethll forge eet out: attoes the ages ‘tastendy Wo ech ether M7’ 8 | npen eountry toward the tris and we! neck hain. ‘These were the gptive] cept tarm buildings of John Clayrn guldea Impressed into the service of] Lord Greystoke; but disrpone ery Multur and upon thelr poor, braised | was te be their lot since neither Tar. bodies Kultur’s brand was revealed 19] an of the Apes nor his som were at divers cruel wounds and bruises. home, Thus even in darkest Africa was the light of German civilization commenc- ing to reflect itself upon the unde- serving natives just at the same period, the fall of 1914, It was shed- ding its glorious eftulgence upon be- nighted Belgium. It {8 true that’ the guides had ied the party astray; but this is the way of most African guides. Nor did it matter that ignorance rather than evil intent had been the cause of their failure. It was enough for Haupt- mann Frits Schhelder to know that he was lost in the African wilderness and that he had at hand human be- ings less powerful than he who could be made to suffer by torture, ‘That he did not kill them outright,was par- Ually due to a faint hope that they might eventually prove the means of extricating him from his dimMculties and partially that so léng as they lived they might still be made to suffer. .

With him were « score of his ebon warriors, but far tou slow for the ape-man was the prog- reas of these trained and hardened woodsmen. When necessity demanded, Tarzan of the Apes sloughed the thin veneer of his civilisation and with it the hampering apparel that was its badge In a moment the polished English gentleman reverted to the naked ¢ pe- man, His mate was in danger. For the time that single thought dominated.

Here Tantor, the elephant, took his long way from dust wallow to water. Here Buto, the rhinoceros, blundered blindly in his solitary majesty, while bySnight the great cats paced silently upon their padded feet beneath the @ense canopy of overreaching trees toward the board plain beyond where they found their best hunting. It was at the edge of this plain which came suddenly aga unexpect- edly before the eyes of the guides that their sad hearts beat with re newed hope, I:ere the Hauptmann drew a deep sigh of relief, for after days of hopeléss wandering through almost impenetrable jungle the bréad vista of waving grasses dotted here and there with open, parklike woods and in the far distance the winding line of green shrubbery that denoted @ river appeared to the Eu- ropean a veritable heaven. The smiled in his relie passed a cheery word with his lieu- tenant and then scanned the broad plain with his field glasses, Back and forth they swept across the roll- ing land until at last they came to rest upon a point near the centre of the landscape and close to the green- fringed contours of the river. “We are 1. luck,” sald Schneider to his companions. “Do you see it?” The lieutenant, who was also gaz- ing through his own glasses, finally brought them to rest upon the same spot that had held the attention of his superior, -“Yes," he said, “an-English farm. It must be Greystoke’s, for there is no pther in this part of British East Africa, God is with us, Herr Cap- tain.” had won by the might of his steel thews, and that he must hold and protect by virtue of the same offen- sive armament. It/was no member of the House of Lords who swung swiftly and grimly through the tangled forest or trod: with untiring muscles the wide stretehes of open plain—it was a great he ape filled with a single purpose that excluded all thoughts of fatigue or danger. Little Manu, the monkey, scolding and chattering in the upper terraces of “the forest, saw him pass, Long had it been since he had thus beheld the great Tarmangan! naked and alone hurtling through the jungle Bearded and gray was Manu, the monkey, and to bis dim old eyes came the fire of recollection of those days when. Tarzan of the Apes had ruled supreme, Lord of the Jungle, over all the myriad life that trod the matted vegetation between the boles of the great ‘trees, or flew or swung oF climbed in tite leafy fastnesses up- ward to the very apex of the loftiest terraces, And Numa, lying up for the day close beside last night's successful kill, blinked his yellow-green eyes and twitched his tawny tail as he caught the scent spoor of his ancient enemy. Nor was Tarzan senseless to the presence of Numa or Manu or any of the many jungle beasts he’ passed in his rapid fight toward the west. No particle bad nis shallow probing of English) society dulled his marvelous sense faculties. His nose had picked out the presence of Numa, the lion, even before tho majestic kigg of beasts was aware of his pas#ing. He had heard noisy little Manu, and even the soft rustling of the parting shrubbery where Sheeta passed be- fore either of these alert animals sensed his presence. But however keen the senses of the ape-man, however swift his progress through the wild country of his adop- tion, however mighty the muscles that bore him, he was still mortal. Time and space placed their inexor- able limits upon him; nor was there another who realized this truth more keenly thah Tarzan, He chafed and fretied that he could not travel with the swiftness of thought and that the long tedious miles stretching far “We have come upon the” English swinehund long before he can have learned that his country is at war with ours," replied Schneider, “Let him be the first to feel the iron hand of Germany.” ~“Let us hope that he ts at home, aid the leutenant, “that we may take him with us when we report to Kraut at Nairobi, It will go well in- deed withe Herr Hauptmann Frits Schneider if he brings in the famous Tarzan of he Apes as a prisoner of war.

IT WAS A BLACK MAN-EATING LION, THE LARGEST THAT HE HAD EVER SEEN. Bis. sets: aR Aaa Sal Ae up at night for but a few hours and left to chance the finding of meat dl- rectly on his trail. If Wappi, the an- telope, or Horta, the boar, chanced in tis way when he was hungry, he ate, pausing but long enough to make the <ill and cut himself a steak. Then at last the long journey drew to its close and he was passing through the last stretch of heavy forest that bounded his estate npon the plain’s edgs looking out across nis broad lands toward ils home. At the first glance his eyes nar- rowed atid his muscles tensed, Even vat that distgnce he could see that somethi: was amiss, A thin sp‘rai of smoke ayose at the right of the bungalow where the barns had stuod but there were no barns there now ard from the bungalow chimney from which »moke should have arisen, there awpse nothing, Once again Tarzan of the Apes was speeding onward, this time even more ‘swiftly than before, for he was goaded now by a nameless fear, more the product of intuition than of reason. ven as the beasts, Tarzan of the Apes seemed to possess a sixth sense. Long befyre he reached the bungalow ne had almost pictured the scene tliat finally broke upon his view. Silent and deserted was’ the vine- covered cottage. Smoldering emncrs marked the site of his great bacns. Gone were the thatched huts of his sturdy retainers, empty the fields, the Pastures and corrals. Here and there vultures rose and cirgled above the carcasses of men and beasts. It Was with a feeling as nearly akin to terror as he ever had experi- enced that the ape-man finally forced hint#elf to enter his home, ‘The first sight that met his eyes eet the red hage and blood-lust across his vision, for there, crucified against the fall of the living-room, was Wa- simbu, giant son of the faithful Muviro and for over a year the per- sonal bodyguard of Lady Jane. The overturned and " shattered furniture of the room, the brown pools of dried blood upon the floor, and prints of bloody hands on walls and woodwork fevidenced something of the frightfulness of the battle that had been waged within the narrow confines of the apartment. Across the baby-grand piano lay the corpse ot another black warrior, while be- fore the door of Lady Juje's boudoir were the dead bodies of three more cf the faithful Greystroke servan The door of this room was closed, With drooping shoulders and dull eyes Tarzan stood gazing dumbly at the insensate panel which hid from him what horrid secret he dared not even guess, Cererrerrern “She Is Dead! She Is j Dead!” He Repeated Slowly with leaden feet he moved toward the door, Gropingly his hand reached for the knob. Thus he stood for another long minute and then with a sudden gesture he straightened his-giant ffame, threw back his mighty shoulders and with fearless head held high, swung back the door and stepped across the threshold into the room which held for him the deares} memories and associations of his life. No change of expression crossed his grim and stern-set features as he strode across a and sto the little ch and the i ge which lent, thing that had pulsed with life and youth and love. No tear dimmed the eye of the Ape-man; but the God who made him alone could know the thoughts that Passed through that stil! half-savage brain, For a long time he s' there just looking down upon the dead body, charred beyond recogni tion, and then he stooped and litt ‘it in his arms, As he turned the body over and saw how horribly death had been meted he plumbed, in that in- stant, the uttermost depth of grief and horror and hatred, Nor did he require the evidence of the broken German rifle in the outer room,.or the torn and blood-stained Service cap upon the floor, to tell him who had been the perpetrators of this horrid and useless crime. | For a moment h hope that the blackened corpse was not that of his mate, but when his eyes discovered and ‘recognized the rings upon her fingers the last faint Tay of hope forsook him. In silence, in love, and in rever- j ence he buried, in the little rose gar- den that had been Jane Clayton's pride and love, the poor, charred form and beside it the great black warriors wbo had given their lives so futile! Ethel caisteaass protection. Orr wen i. i Tarzan Disinterred Bodies 3 | dinnnnnnnnnnnnnannnannnncnnrnnney |, At one side of the house ‘Tarzan found other newly made graves’ and In these he sought final evidence of the identity of the real perpetrators of the atrocities that had been comt- mitted there in his absence, Here he disinterred the bodies of a dozen German askaris and found upon their uniforms the insignia of tho company and regiment to which they had belonged, ‘Thia was enough for the ape-man. White officers had commanded these men, nor would it be a difficult task to’ discover who they were, Returning to the rose garden, he stood among the German-trampled blooms and bushes above the grave of his dead—with bowed head he stood there in a last mute farewell. As the sun gank slowly behind the towering forests of the west he turned slowly away from the still distinct trall: of Hauptmann Fritz Schneider and his bloodstained company, His waa the suffering of the dumb brute—mute; but though voiceless no less poignant. At first his vast sorrow numbed his other faculties of thought—his brain was overwhelmed by the calamity to such an extent that it reached to but a single objective suggestion: She Is dead! She is dead! Sho is dead! Again and again this phrase beat monotonously upon his brain—a dull, throbbing pain, yet mechanically his feet followed’ th trail of her slayer while, subcon sclously, his every sense was upon the alert for the ever-present. perils of the jungle. Gradually the labor of his great grief brought forth another emotion #0 real, go tangible that It seemed a Companion walking at his side. It was Hate—and It brought to him @ measure of solace and of comfort, for it was a sublime hate ‘that ennobled |him as. {t bas ennobled countless thousands slnce—hatred for Germany amd Germans. It centred about the slayer of his mate, of course; but it included everything German, animate or inanimate.

There followed almost immediately 4 feeling of content, for where befor his future at best seemed but a void. t was filled with possibilities the mplation of which brought him, if not happiness .at least a,surcease of absolute grief for before him lay great work that would occupy his time. Stripped nog only of all the outward symbols of civilization, Tarzan had also reverted morally and mentally to the status of the savage beast he had been reared. Never had his civiliza- tion been more than a veneer put on for the sake of her he loved because he thought it made her happier to him thus. In reality he had always held the outward evidences of so-calicd culture in deep contempt. Civilization meant to Taizan of the Apes a cur tailment of fredom in all its aspects— freedom of action, freedom of thougat, freedom of love, freedom of hate Clothes he abhorred—uncomfortable, hideous, confining things that remind: ed him somehow of bonds securing him to the life he had seen the poor crat tures of London and Paris living were the emblems of that hypocrisy, for which civilization stood & pretense that the wearers we ashamed of what the clothes cov of the human form made in the blance of God. Tarzan knew how silly and pathetic the lower orders ap- peared in the clothing of civjlizatior, for he had seen several poor creaturvs thus apparelied in various travelling shows in Europe, and he knew, too, how silly and pathetic man appear: in them since the only men he ha! seen in the first twenty years of nis life had been, like himself, naked sav- ages. Whe ape-man hada keen ad mination, for # Well-muscled, well-pro- portioned body, whether lion, or ante. lope, or man, and it had ever been be- yond him to understand how clothes could be considered more beautiful than a clear, firm, healthy skin, or coat and trousers more graceful than the gentle curves of rounded muscles playing beneath a flexible hide, Cr eer The Man-Beast Paused; His Sensitive Nostrils Dilated * In civilisation Tarzan had found greed and selfishness dnd cruelty far beyond that whioh he had known in his familiar, savage jungle, and though clvilidation had given him his mate and several friends whom he loved and admired, he never had come to accept it as you and I who have known little or nothing else; so it was with @ senge of relief that he now definitely abandoned it and all that it stood for, ‘and went forth into the jungle once again stripped to. his loin cloth and weapons. The hunting knife of his father hung at his left hip, his bow qnd his quiver of arrows were slung across his shoulders, while arourd his chest over one shoulder and beneath the oppo- site arm was coiled the long grass rope without which Tarzan would have felt quite as naked as would you should you be suddenly thrust upon a busy highway clad only in a union suit.

Toward midnight Tarzan com. menced to feel the physical strain of his long hours of travel and to realize that even muscles such as his had their limitations, His pursult of th murderers had not been characterised ‘by excessive speed; but rather more jin keeping with his mental attitude which was marked by a dogged de- termination to require from the Ger- mans more than an eye for an eye and more than a tooth for a tooth, the clement of time entering Wil lightly Into his calculationa. * fnwardly as well as outwardly Ta zan had reverted to beast and in the lives of beasts, time, as a measure- able aspect of duration, his no mean- ing.

Now he swung lightly to the lower terraces of the over- arching trees when some subtle sense- warned him that Numa lay upon a kill directly in his path, or again he sprang lightly to one side as Buto, the rhinoceros, lumbered toward him along the narrow, deep-worn trail, for the ape-man, ready to fight upon necessity’s slightest pretext, avoided unnecessary quarrels, When he swung himself at last into the tree he sought, the moon was obscured by a heavy cloud, the tree tops were waving wildly in 2 stend- ily increasing wind whose sougning drowned the lesser noises of the jungle. Upward went Tarzan teward a sturdy crotch/across which he long since had laid and secured a little platform of branches. It was very dark now, darker even than it had been before, for almost the entire sky wag overcast by thick, black clouds. Presently the man-beast paused, his sensitive nostrils dilating as he sniffed the air about him.’ ‘Then, with the swiftness and agility of a cat he leaped far outward upon a swaying branch, sprang upward through the darkness, caught another, swung hrm~ self upon it and then ‘to one stil higher. What could have so sudden}; trnsformead his matter-of-fact . of the giant bole to the swift ant wary action of his detour among thd. branches? You or I could have seen nothing—not even the little platform that an instant before had been just above him and which now was {m- mediately below—~but as he swung above it we should have heard an ominous growl, and then as the moon was momentarily uncovered, wa should have seen both the platform, dimly, and a dark mass ghat lay stretched upon ita dark mass that presently, as our eyes became ac- customed to the lesser darknoss, would take the form of Sheeta, the panther, In answer to the cat's growl, a low and equally ferocious growl rumbled. upward from the ape-man's deop chest—a growl of warning that ‘old the panther he was trespassing upott the other's lair, but Sheeta was In No mood to be dispossessed, With \pturned, snarling face he glared at the browh-skinned Tarmangan! abovi him. Very slowly the ape-man moved inward along the branch until he was directly above the panther. In the man’s band was the hunting knife of his long-dead father—the weapon that had first &iven him his real ascendaney over the beasts of the fungle; but he hoped not to be forced to use At, knowing as he did that more jungle battles were settled by hidevus growling than by actual combat, the law of bluff holding quite as ‘good in the Jungle as elsewhere—only 1 matters of love and food did’ th great beasta fangs and talons.
