pleteTy over upon his bs~ck, falling full upon his enemy. The black haired giant only closed tighter his hold.
 Paving and tearing at earth and air, Sal rolled and threw himself this way and that in an effort to dislodge his antagonist. Always tighter and tighter drew the iron bands that were forcing his head lower and lower upon his white breast.
 Higher and higher crept the steel forearms of the ape man about the back of Sabor's neck. Weaker and weaker became the tigers efforts.
 At last Clayton saw the immense muscles of Tarzan's shoulders and bi- ceps leap into corded knots. There was a, long sustained and supreme effor- on the ape mans part-andt the verte- brae of Sabor's neck parted with a sharp snap.
 In an instant Tarzan was upon his feet, and for the second time that day Clayton heard the bull ape's savage roar of victory, and then he heard Jane Porter's agonized cry:
 "Cecil-Mr. Clayton! Oh, what is it? What is it?
 Running quickly to the cabin door, Clayton called out that all was right and bade her open. As quickly as she could she raised the great bar and fair ly dra gged Clayton within.
 What was that awful noiseW she whispered, shrinking close to him.
 ..It was the cry of the kill from the throat of the man who has just saved your life, Miss Porter. Wait, I will fetch him that you may thank him.
 The frightened girl would not be left alone, so she accompanied Clayton to the side of the cabin where lay the dead body of the tiger.
 Tarzan of the apes was gone.
 Clayton called several times, but there was no reply. and so the two re turned to the greater safety of the in terior.
 ssWhat a frightfu soundY' cried Jane Porter. Don't tell me that a human being made it.''
 ssBut it did, Miss Porter replied Clayton, 'sor at least if not human throat that of a forest god"
 And he told her of his experiences with this creature-of how twice the wild man had saved his life, of his wondrous strength and agility and bravery, of the brown skin and the handsome face.
 "I cannot make it out at all, 2 he con cIuded AL snrSL | LhOugAI ne m1SnL be Tarzan of the apes. But he neither speaks nor underestimate English, so that theory is untenable.''
 .'We1l, whatever he may be- cried the girl, i've owe him our lives. May heaven bless him and keep. him in safety in his jungle.'' e
 Amen said Clayton ferventIy.
 ssFo' de good Lawd's sake, ain An daid?'' 4
 The two turned to see EsmeraIda sit ting upright upon the floor, her great eyes rolling from side to, side, as though she could not believe their tes- timony as to her whereabouts.

~ EVERAL miles south of the
 cabin, upon strip of sandy
 beach, stood two old men argus

 Savage beasts roared and growled. Noises, hideous and weird, assailed their ears. They had wandered miles in search of their camp, but always in the wrong direction. They were hope lessly lost.
 Samuel T. Phi1ander was speaking.
 @But, my dear professor" he was saying, ssI still maintain that but for the victories of Ferdinand and Isabella over the fifteenth century Meors. in Spain the world would be today thou sand years in advance of where we now find ourselves. But, bless me, pro- lessor, there seems to be some one ap- proaching.''
 Professor Archimedes Q. Porter turn ed to the jungle in the direction in dicated by the nearsighted MT. Phi lander.

 Ins.the meantime the. lion had ap- 22roaehed with quiet dignity to within ten paces of the two men, where he stood curiously watching them.

 Never. MT. Philander, never before in my life have I known one of these animals to be permitted to roam at large from it's cage I shall most cer- tainly report this most outrageous breach of ethics to the directors of the biological garden"
 Quite right, professor" agreed MT. Philander, land the sooner 1t is done E the better. Let us start now.''
 Seizing the professor by the arm, =-PhiIander set off in the direction that would put the greatest distance between themselves and the lion.
 They had proceeded but short dis .tance when a backward glance reveal ed that the lion was following them. MT. Philander frightened his grip upon the professor and increased his speed.
 "As I was saying, MT. Philander''- repeated Professor Porter

JUDGE ASHFORD
OBJECTS TO MANY
APPELLATE CASES
Makes Declaration from Bench
That Court viii Put Quick
Stop to Practise

Circuit Judge Ashford entered a Wig.
orous protest in open court this morn.
ing against the practice of attorneys
in carrying up from the police court
SO many petty misdemeaner cases for
jury trial, working thereby a hardship
on the busy businessmen who are
compelled to do jury Guty and = hard
ship on the county, which he said is
put to an expense of about S75 day
for every jury trial. -.
Judge Ashford aimed his protest di-
rectIy at the members of the local
bar, not more than three of whom hap
pened to be present. He asked those
TO convey his sentiment to their fell
lows, and ended with the comment
that unless the degradation of the dig
nifty OF this court by this system were
not mitigated 10 some extent this
court certainly will find a way to make
its protest effective"
Judge Ashford's protest was elected
by the fact, as he announced at the
opening OF court, that there are now
pending 142 cases on the criminal trial
calendar of the first circuit court and
that of these 46 are eommittals from
the local district court and AZ are ap-
peals from the lower court, while
there are only "a indictments remain
ing to be disposed of In all, he said,
I40 cases remain to be tried, two being
extradition matters which may never
be heard
"Of the total number there are As
cases in which the defendants receiy-
ed no trial in the district court said
Judge Ashford. "In these counsel has
demanded trial by jury, and as the
law does not provide for jury hearings
In the district court the cases are per-
force carried up to this jurisdiction
In most OF these the defendants are
held for misdemeanors-in many, for
,offenses of petty character-and in
great number 1t appears preposter-
Gus that they should be brought up
here when they have had no hearing
In the lower court don't believe for
an instant that it was the intention
of he legislature which made the law
under which these committals are TAX
en-, to make this police court for the
trial of misdemeanors.
at is possible, of course, that many
would have reached this court after a
hearing in the district court. 1t is
true all have come up by due process
of law, but | feel that the wholesale
practice amounts to positive abuse
of the statute. I don't believe the leg
islature intended that the circuit court
should be degraded to the level of a
police court. Certainly have higher
