Tarzan Stays Kulonga in revenge for
Kala's death and secures q bow and Dol.
soned arrows from the native village.
He finds photograph Of his father and
his mothers locket. Worsting Kerchak
In battle, Tarzan becomes king of the
apes.
After subduing Terkoz, TarEan leaves the
tribe and terroriZes the savages in the
village Of Mbonga.
During his convalescence Tarzan
tried to fashion a mantle from the
skin Of SAILOR. the tiger. which had
lain all this time in the cabin. But he
found the hide dried as stiff as a
board. and, as he knew naught Of tan
ming. he was forced to abandon his
cherished plan.
Then he determined to filch what
few garments he could from one of the
black men of Mbonga's village. for he
had decided to mark his elevation
from the lower orders in every posi-
Bile manner. and nothing seemed to
him a more distinguishing badge of
manhood than ornaments and clothing.
To this end. therefore. he collected
the various arm and leg ornaments he
had taken from the black warriors who
mad succumbed to his swift and silent
moose and dOnned them all.
About his neck hung the golden chain
from which depended the diamond in
crusted locket of his mother. the Lady
Alice. At his back was a culver of ar
rows slung from a leathern shoulder
belt, another piece of loot from some
vanQuished black.
About his waist was belt of tiny
strips of rawhide fashioned by himself
as a support for the homemade scab-
bard In which hung his fathers hunt
ing knife. The long bow which had
been Kulonga's hung over his left
shoulder,
The young Lord Greystoke was in
deed a strange and warlike figure. his

knife to rude bang upon his fore
head. that it might not fall before his
eyes,
Hair was commencing to grow upon
his face. All the apes had hair upon
theirs. but the black men were entirely
hairless. with very few exceptions.
True. he had seen pictures in his
books of men with great masses Of
hair upon lip and cheek and chin; but.
nevertheless, Tarzan was afraid. AL
most daily he whetted his keen knife
and scraped and whitfield at his young
blem Of apehood.
And SO he learned to shave, rudely
and painfully. it is true. but neverthe-
less effectively.

ever their intentions, all had been de-
cided upon before they left the ship.
They came to the door. the sailors
carrying the boxes and bales. follow
ed by the five who were Of so different
class. Then the men put down their
burdens. and then one caught sight Of
the notice which Tarzan had posted.
''Ho. mates" he cried. whats here?
This sign was not posted an hour ago
or I'll eat the cook"
The others gathered about. craning
their necks over the shoulders of those
before them, but as few of them could
read at all. and then only after the
most laborious fashion. one finally
turned to the little old man of the top
hat and frock coat
Hi, perfesser." he called, "step for
I'D and read the bloomin' notice.
Adjusting his spectacles, the profess
sor read aloud:

"Who the devil is Tarzan?" cried the
sailor who had before spoken.
"He evidently speaks English" said
the young man.
But what does 'Tarzan Of the apes

piled the young man. unless we have

man.

growled the rat faced sailor.

in anger at the insulting tone of the
sailor. you've murdered our officers

He turned his back full upon the
sailor and walked nonchalantly away.
The sailors hand crept slyly to the
butt Of one Of his revolvers: his wicked
eyes glared vengefully at the retreat

What he would have done will never
be known. for there was another fac

In the trees above them caused the
blacks to look up in renewed terror.
The sight that met their eyes made
even Mbonga shudder.
Turning and twisting in the air came
the dead body to sprawl with a sick
ening limpness upon the ground at
their feet.
With one accord the blacks took to
their heels. nor did they stop until the
last of them was lost in the shadows
Of the jungle.
Again TarZan came down into the
village and renewed his supply of ar
rows and ate Of the offering Of food
which the blacks had made to appease
his wrath.
Before he left he carried the body
to the gate Of the village and prop
ped it up against the palisade in such
a way that the dead face seemed to
be peering round the edge of the gate
post down the path which led to the
jungle.
Then he returned. hunting. always
hunting. to the cabin by the beach.
1t took a dozen attempts on the part
of the thoroughly frightened blacks to
re-enter the village. past the grinning
face of their dead fellow. and when
they found the food and arrows gone
they knew, what they only too well
feared, that the evil spirit of the jun
gle was abroad.
Only those who saw this terrible god
Of the jungle died. for was it not true
that none left alive in the village had
ever seen him? Therefore those who
had died at his hands must have seen
him and paid the penalty with their
lives.
AS long as they supplied him with
arrows and food he would not harm
them unless they looked upon him. so
it was ordered by Mbonga that In adj
dition to the food offering there should
also be laid out an Offering Of arrows
for this Munango Keewati. and this
was done from then on.
When Tarzan came in sight Of the
beach where stood his cabin a strange
and unusual spectacle met his vision.
On the placid waters of the land
locked harbor floated a great ship. and
on the beach small boat was drawn
up.
But. most wonderful of all. a num-
Der of white men like himself were
moving about between the beach and
his cabin.
Tarzan saw that in many ways they
were like the men of his picture books.
He crept closer through the trees until
he was almost above them.
There were ten men. swarthy. sun
tanned and villainous looking fellows.
Now they had congregated by the boat
and were talking in loud. angry tones.

CHAPTER VIII.
His Own Kind.

TATHEN he felt quite strong
" again after his bloody battle
" with Terkoz, the mighty
ape. TarZan set off one morn
ing toward Mbongas village. He was
moving carelessly along a winding jun
gle trail instead of making his progress
through the trees when suddenly he
came face to face with black war
rior
The look of surprise on the savage
face was almost comical. and before
Tarzan could unsling his bow the fell
low had turned and fed down the path
crying out in alarm. as though to 9TH
ers before him.
Tarzan took to the trees in pursuit
and in few moments came In view OF
the fleeing quarry.
There were three of them. and they
were racing madly in single tle
through the dense underground.
Tarzan easily distanced them. nor
did they see his silent passage above
their heads nor note the crouching fig
ure squatted upon low branch ahead
of them beneath which the trail led
them.
Tarzan let the first two pass beneath
him, but as the third came swiftly on
the quiet moose dropped about the
black throat. A quick jerk drew It
taut.
There was an agonized scream from
the victim, and his fellows turned TO
see his struggling body rise as py
magic slowly into the dense foliage OF
the trees above.
With shrieks they wheeled once more
and plunged on in their effort to es-
cape.
Tarzan dispatched his prisoner quick
" and silently. removed the weapons
and ornaments and-greatest JOY OF all
"A handsome doeskin breechciotn'
which he quickly transferred to ms
own person.
Taking the body across his shoulder
he moved more slowly through the
trees toward the little palisaded VII
lage. for he again needed arrows.
AS he approached quite close TO tne
inclosure he saw an excited group sur
rounding the two fugitives. who. trem-
bling with fright and exhaustion. were
scarce able to recount the uncanny de-
tails of their adventure.

The villagers were worked up into a
state of panic. but wise Mbonga af-
fected to feel considerable skepticism
regarding the tale and attributed the
whole fabrication to their fright in the
face Of some real danger
"You tell us this great story" he
said. because you do not dare to speak
the truth. You do not dare admit that
when the tiger sprang you ran away
and left your comrade. You are cow

ALTON OF SAID INSTRUCTORS.

Berlin, Feb. 17.-General Lman Won
Sanders has been made a Turkish
marshal and German diplomacy has
been oulmarshaIIed, according to the
popular view which Germans take of
their military mission to Turkey.
There was a general feeling of sat
isfaction when Turkey approached the
German government last October with
a request for German officers to reor-
ganize the Turkish Ottoman army. The
defeat IN the Balkan war of the troops
trained by General Won dor Goltz, it
was felt, was in no way a reflection
on German military methods. since
Won dor Goltz and the officers under
him had been limited to purely ad-
visory and Institutional functions,
without being given actual command
of troops, and the Turks neither alb
sorbed the instructions nor followed
the advice. The officers of the new
mission were to take actual command
of the troops in one corps, train the
men just as German soldiers are
trained and be given full RESPONSE
bility for results. A five-year contract
was signed and on Decem Der s Cen
eral Liman Won Sanders and a corps
of assistants were received by the En-
peror at Potsdam and hidden godspeed.

police force inadequate to restore order

rights and restrictions OF the military
