Above him towered the huge lion, its hot bréath upon his face, ‘ts tongue upon his cheek. The Ape-man had often been close to death; but never before so close as this, he thought, for he was convinced ~|that death was but a matter of sec- ae onds. His brain was still numb from the effects of the blow that had felled him so he did not for a moment recognize the lion that stood over him as the one he had #0 recently encountered. . Presently, however, recognition -| dawned upon him and with it @ real- ixation the astounding fact that Numa did not seem bent on devour- ing him—at least not immediately. His position was a delicate one. ‘| without apparent fatigue. The lion stood astraddie Tarzan with bis front paws. The ape-man could not risé, therefore, without pushing the lion away and whether Numa would tolerate being pushed was an open question, Too, the beast might consider him already dead and any movement that indicated the con- trary was true would, in all likeli- hood, arouse the killing instinct of he man-eater, But Tarzan was tiring of the situ: tion.

The train had stopped and started again and, as it gained 1 headway and greater distance, Tar- jo zan could tell from the direction of the sound that it was moving south. ‘The ape-man followed the trail to the railway, where it ended abruptly on the west side of the track, showing that the girl had boarded the train, ‘There was noth- Ing now but to follow on to Wilhelm- stal, where he hoped to find Capt.

From there he moved stealthily from build- ing to building, until at Inst he was discovered by a large dog in the rear ‘The brute came slowly toward him, He could see @ light in the bungalow and uniformed men dog would not bark.

Repeating the call the man descended the steps and advanced toward the tree, In the light from the doorway Tarzan could see that he was a tall, broad- shouldered man in the uniform of a German officer. ‘The ape-man with+ drew into the shadow of the tree's stem, The man came closer, still culling the dog—he did not see the savage beast, crouching now in the shadow, awaiting him. When he had approached within ten feet of the Parmangani, Tarzan leaped upon him —as Sabor springs to the kill, so sprang the ape-man. The momentum and weight of his body hurled the German to the ground, powerful fingers nted an outcry and, though the officer struggled, he had no chance and a moment ‘ater lay dead beside the body of the dog. ‘As Tarzan stood for a moment lcoking down upon his kill and re- retting that he could not risk voic- ing his beloved victory cry, the sight of the uniform suggested a means whereby he might pass to and fro through Wilhelmstal with the mini- mum ‘chance of detection.
