forward upon her face before the as tonlshed members of her tribe.
 Roaring and shrleking the apes dash. ed toward Kulonga. but that wary saw age was fleeing down the trail like a frightened antelope. They followed 4 him. racing through the trees for q long distance. but finally ore by one they bandoned the chase and returned l- to the scene of the tragedy.
 .'Ou the fnr beach by the little cabin . Tarzan heard the faint echoes of the conflict. and. knowing that something was seriously amlss among the tribe. | he hastened rapidly toward the direc- ton of the sound.
 When he arrived he found the entire tribe gathered iabbering about the dead body of his slain mother
 Tarzan's grief and anger were un. bounded. He roared out his hideous challenge time and again. He beat upon his chest with his fists. and then he fell upon the body of Kala and sobbed out the pitiful sorrowing of his lonely heart
 But after the first outburst of grief Tarzan controlled himself and ques- tlonng the members of the tribe who had witnessed the killing Of Kala. he learned all that their meager vocabu- lary could vouchsafe him
 It was enough, however. for his needs. If told him of n strange. hair less. black ape with feathers growing upon its head. who launched death from a slender branch and then ran with the heetness of Bara. the deer. toward the rising sun.
 Tarzan waited no longer: but, leap ing into the branches of the trees. sped rapidly through the forest He knew the windings of the elephant trail along which Kala's murderer had flown. and he cut straight through the jungle to intercept the black warrior, who was evidently following the tor tuous detours of the trail
 At his side was the hunting knife of his unknown sire. and across his shOul- ders the coils of his own long rope In an hour he struck the trail again and. coming 10 earth. examined the soil minutely.
 In tue soft mud on the bank of a tiny rivulet he found footprints such as he alone in all the jungle had ever made but much larger than his His heart beat fast. Could 1t be that he was trailing man-one of his own racei
 There were two sets of imprnts pointing in opposite directions. So his quarry had already passed on his re- turn along the trail. As he examined the newer spoor tiny particle of earth toppled from the outer edge of one of the footprints to the bottom of Its shallow depression-ah. the trail was very fresh. his prey must have but scarcely passed.
 Tarzan had covered barely a mile more when he came upon. the black warrior standing in little open space. In his hand was his slender bow. 10 which he had fitted one of his death dealing arrows
 Opposite him across the little clear ing stood Horta. the boar. with lower cd head and foam hecked tusks. ready tO cbnrgc.
 The black released the poisoned ar row, and Tarzan SEW it fly with the mickness of thought and lodge fin the bristling neck of the boar.
 Ssnrcely had the shaft left his bow ere EulonGa had fitted another to it. but Hortn. the boar. was upon him so quickly that he had no time to dis charge lt. With bound the black lenped entirely over the rushing beast and turning with incredible swiftness. planted a second arrow in Horia's back
 Then Kulonga sprang into nearby tree.
 Horta wheeled 10 charge his enemy once more. A dozen steps he took; then he staggered and fell upO,l his side For moment his muscles stinened and relaxed convulsively. then he lay still.
 Kulonga came down from his tree.
 With the knife that hung at his side he cut several large pieces from the boar's body. and In the center of the trail he built fire, cooking and eating es much as he wanted The rest he left where il had fallen.
 Tarzan was an interested spectator, His desire to Kill burned ierceiy in his wild breast. but his desire 10 learn was even greater, He would follow this savage creature for awhile and know whence ly came He could kill him al his leisure later. when the bow and deadly arrows were laid aside.
 When Kulonga had finished his re- past and disappeared beyond near turning of the path TaIzan dropped ailletiy to the ground, With his knife he severed many strips of meat from Hortn's carcass. but he did not cook them.
