FIVE NEW BISHOPS
 ARE SELECTED

Cincinnati, October 20.-The house of bishops of the triennial convention of the Protestant Episcopal church today selected five new bishops and one mis- sionary bishop. but announced that the names of those selected will not be made public until the report is sent to the house of deputies tomorrow morning for ratification. The new bishops will have charge of the .dioceses of Wuhu, China; eastern Oklahoma, northern Texas. San Joaquin, Cal, and Arizona. A new mis- misonary bishop to take the place of Bishop Graves of Kearney, Neb., was also chosen but his name will be withheld also until tomorrow. The addition to these new bishops will increase the membership of the house Of bishops to 110.
 The last joint session of the house of bishops and the house of deputies took place this afternoon when church work in Mexico. Porto Rico, Brazil and Africa was discussed.
 Property and human life in Mexico," was the subject taken by Bishop H. D. Ayes of Mexico. He was followed by Bishop Kinsolvin of Brazil who described the condition of the church in Brazil as very poor owing to the lack of funds.
 Bishop Ferguson, the colored bishop of Cape Palmas, Africa, related his 25 years experience in the missionary field of Africa. The last speaker of the after noon was Bishop J. H. Van Buren, bishopl of Porto Rico, who described the condi- tions of the church in Porto Rico, claim ing that they were discouraging in the extreme, but that even at that they had improved wonderfully during the last 10 years.
 After long debate the house of depu- ties rejected the amendment for Good Friday passed by the bishops last week.
 The amendment would substitute the words those outside the true faith for Jews, Turks, infidels and heretics."

upon the seashore. Beneath the giant
spread of the baobab all was black
ness.
Something moved in bush little
way down the cleft. A crouching
figure appeared, dimly outlined in the
starlight. The figure crept stealthily
across into the denser night of the bao-
bab. The darkness closed about it like
a shroud.
A binding flash of light pierced the
blackness. The figure halted and
crouched lower though the flash had
gone again in a fraction of a second.
A dull rumbling mingled with the
ceaseless boom of the surf
A second flash lighted the cleft with
its dazzling coruscation. This time the
creeping figure did not halt
Again and again the forked light
ming streaked across the sky, every
stroke more vivid than the one before.
The rumble of the distant thunder
deepened to a heavy rolling which
dominated the dull roar of the break
ers. The storm was coming with the
on-rush of tornado. Yet the leaves
hung motionless in the still air and
there was no sound other than the
thunder and the booming of the surf.
The lightning flared, one stroke upon
the other, with a brilliancy that lit
up the caves interior brighter than at
midday.
In the white glare the girl saw Win
thrope, crouched beneath her upswung
door; and his face was az the face of
a beast.

SYNOPSIS.

The story opens with the shpwreck of
the steamer on which Miss Genevieve
Leslie, an American heiress, Lord Win
thrope, an Englishman, and Tom Blake,
The three were tossed upon an unnhab-
tied island and were the only ones not
drowned. Blake, Stunned on the boat,
because of his rQughness, became a hero
as preserver of the helpless pair. The
Englishman was suing for the hand of
Miss Leslie. Winthrope wasted his last
match on cigarette, for which he was
scored by Blake. All three constructed
hats to shield themselves from the sun.
They then feasted on cocoanuts, the only
liking for Blake, but detested his rough
ness. Led by Blake, they established a
home in some cliffs. Blake found a fresh
water spring. Miss Leslie faced an un-
pleasant situation. Blake recovered his
surveyors magnifying glass. thus insur-
ing fire. He started a jungle fire, killing
a large leopard and smotherng several
cubs In the lCopards cavern they built
q small home. They gained the cliffs by
BURNING the bottom of n tree until it fell
eggs from the cliffs. Miss Leslie's white
skirt was decided upon as a signal. Miss
Leslie made dress from the leopard

became frightened. Winthrope became
III with fever. Blake was poisoned by a
ash and almost died. Jackals attacked
the camp that night, but were driven off
by GcneVieve. Blake constructed an ami

lay on her bed staring into
the blank darkness. The storm burst
with a crashing uproar that brought
her to her feet with a shrek. Her
giant tree creaked and strained under
the impact of the terrific hurricane
blasts that came bowling through the
cleft ike a rout of shrieking fiends.
The peals of thunder merged into one
continuous roar, beneath which the
solid ledges of rocks Jared and uuiv-
cred. The sky was. pail of black
clouds, meshed with a dazzling net
work of forked lightning.
The girl stood motionless, stunned
by the uproar, appalled, by the binding
glare of the thunderbolts; yet even
more fearful of the figure which every
Hash showed her still lurking beneath
the door. A gust-borne bough struck
with numbing force against her up
raised arm. But she took no heed. She
was unaware of the swirl of rain and
SUCKS and leaves that was driving in
through the open entrance.
On sudden the door shook free
from its props and whirled violently
around on its balance-bar. There was
Shrek that pierced above the shrill-
ing of the cyclone-a single human
shrek.
The girl sprang across the cave.
The heavy door swished up before her
and down again, its lower edge all but
grazing her face. For a moment it
stopped In a vertical position and

hung quivering, like a beast about to
leap upon its prey. Too excited to
comprehend the danger of the act, the
girl sprang forward and shot one of
the thick bars into its socket.
a fierce gust leaped against the out
er face of the door and thrust in upon
it, striving to burst St bodily from its
bearings. The top and the free side
of the bottom bowed in. But the
branches were still green and tough,
the bamboo like whalebone and the
shrunken creepers held the frame to-
gether as though the joints were
lashed with wire rope. Failing to
smash in the elastic structure or to
snap the crossbar it were as if the
blast flung itself alternately against
the top and bottom in a fierce attempt
to again whirl the frame about. The
white glare streaming in through the
interstices showed the girl her oppor-
tunity. She grasped another bar and
shot it into it's socket as the lower
part OF the door gave back with the
shifting of the pressure to the top. 1t
was then simple matter to slide the
remaining bars into the deep-sunk
holes. Within half a minute she had
made the door fast from the first bar
to the sixth.
A heavy spray was beating in upon
her through the Chinks of the frame
work. She drew back and sought
shelter in a niche at the side. Mar
tho cliff ahnun tho TO nf
the door, it let in a torrent of water,
which spouted clear across and
against the far wall of the cave. 1t
gushed down upon her bed and was
already flooding the cave floor.
She piled higher the cocoanuts
stored in her niche, and perched her
self upon the heap to keep above the
water But eevn in her sheltered cor
ner the eddying wind showered her
with spray She waded across for her
skincovered sunshade, and returned
to huddle beneath it, in the still mis-
cry and terror of hunted animal that
has crept wounded into a hole.
During the first hurricane there had
been companions to whom she could
look for help and comfort, and she
had been to a degree unaware of the
greatness of the danger. But in the
few short weeks since she had caught
more than one glimpse of Primeval
Nature-she of the bloody fang, blind
remorseless, insensate, destroying,
ever destroying.
True, this was on solid land, while
before there had been the peril of the
sea- But now the girl was alone Out
side the straining walls of her refuge
the hurricane yelled and shrieked and
roared-a headless, formless monster
furious to burst in upon her, to over
throw her stanch old tree giant, that
in his fall his shattered trunk might
crush and mangle her. Or at any in
slant a thunder-bolt might rend open
the great tower of living wood and
hurl her blackened body into the pool
on the cave floor.
Once she fancied that she heard
Blake shouting outside the door: but
when she screamed shrill response.
the blast mocked her with echoing
shrieks, and she dared not venture to
free the door. If it were Blake. he
did not shout again. After time she
began to think that the sound had
