rising from the fissure. AT last. it
seemed a year. the trembling of the
earth ceased. and he looked up Beside
him lay Justin in a swoOn. Not far
away there was a great clamor of
voices, calls for help, shriei1s of de-

be near the others. He did not know
what had happened. save that some
great Judgment had fallen upon that
Pagan land = these worShipers of
strange gods. He rose blindly to his
feet and shook Justin, but the horror
stricken boy was deathly white and
quite unconscious. Then OZiel looked
about him in agony and saw that the
fissure where Donnereau had sunk was
not alone. but that great cracks were
on ali sides shutting him from where

he had little time 10 ponder. Lynch

in the thicket when he remembered
that Justin was still missing. At that

shot from all the guns of the fleet That

could not reach the Olympia at close
quarters, she wheeled about and uIed

Dor of Cavite. from which she came. AT
