A PIot Against a Woman.

 TOR a month Tarzau was a regu-
 lar and very welcome deyotee
 at the shrine of the beautiful
 Countess de Coude Often he met other members of the select little coterie that dropped in for tea of am afternoon More often Olga found de vices that would give her an hour of Tarzan alone. She grew to speculate much upon the strange force which seemed to attract her toward the gray eyed stranger. She did not wish to love him. nor did she wish his love. He was honorable and chiyalr0us She was not afraid of him. That she could trust him she had felt nstiuctvely from the first
 From a distance Rok0n had watched this growing Intimacy with malicious glee. Ever since he had learned that Tarzan knew that he was a Russian spy there had been added Go his hatred for the ape-man a great fear that be would expose him. He was but wait- ing now until the moment was ugo- pitious for a master stroke
 Tarzan was nearer Go cOuteumeut than he had been since the peace and tranquility of his jungle had been broken in upon by the advent of thc marooned Porter party.
 Sometimes D'Aruot accompanied him on bis visits to the De Coude home for he had long known both Olga and the count. Occasionally be Coude drop ped i'm but the mulutudiuous anuirs of his official position and the never ending demands of politics kept him from home usually until late at night
 Rokon spied upon TaIzan almost constantly. waiting for the time that he should cai at the De Coude palace at night, but in this he was doomed Co disappointment.
 Finding that it seemed impossible Co trap Tarzan through any voluntary act of his own, Rokon and Paplvitch put their heads together to hatch plan that would trap the ape-mau fin an che circumstantial evidence of comprO- missing position.
 Forduys they watched the papers as we'll as the movements of be COude and Tarzan. At length they were re. warded A morning paper made brief mention of smoker that was to be given on the following evening by the German ambassador De Coude's nume was among those of the invited guests IT he attended this meaut that ho would be absent from his home until after midnight
 On the night of the banquet Paul witch waited at the curb before Che res idence oC fine ambassador where he could sean the face of each guest thai arrived He had not long to wait be fore De Coude descended from his cli and passed him That Was enough paulyitch hastened back to his guar ters. where Rokon awaited him Therl they waited until after l. then Paul witch took down the receiver of theh telephone. He called the number of the apartments of Lieutenant D'Arnut
 "M. Tarzan?
 "Ah. yes. monsieur this is Francois fin the service of the Countess d' Coude. Possibly monsieur does pool Francois the honor Go recalI him-yes
 "Yes. monsieur have message an urgent message from the countess She nsks tlat you hasten to hor al once-she is iu trouble. monsieur
