In about two months" said D'Arnot
as he completed his perusal Of the let
ter. Tarzan did not need to be told
who was meant by they" He made
no reply, but he was very quiet and
thoughtful during the balance of the
day.
That evening they attended the
opera. Tarzan's mind was still occu-
pied by his gloomy thoughts. He paid
little or no attention to what was
transpiring upon the stage. Instead,
he saw only the lovely vision OF
beautiful American girl and heard
naught but sad, sweet voice ac-
knowledging that his love was return
ed. And she was to marry another!
He shook himself to be rid of his un-
welcome thoughts, and at the same in
slant he felt eyes upon him. With the
instinct that was his by virtue of train
ing he looked up squarely into the
eyes that were looking at him to find
that they were shining from the smil-
ing face of Olga, Countess de Coude.
AS Tarzan returned her bow he was

The next intermission found him be-
side her in her box.

she was saying. ut has troubled me
not little to think that after the serv-
ices you rendered to both my husband
and myself no adequate explanation
was ever made you Of what must have
seemed ingratitude on our part In not
taking the necessary steps to prevent a
repetition of the attacks upon us by
those two men,"
"You wrong me-" replied Tarzan.

the most pleasant. You must not feel
that any explanation is due me. Have

n~1OUR Paris is more dangerous
~ than my savage jungles,
Paul." concluded Tarzan,
after narrating his adven-
lures to his friend the morning fol-
lowing his encounter with the apaches
and police in the Rue Maule. why
did they lure me there? Were they
hungry"
D'Arnot feigned Mortified shudder,
but he laughed at the quaint sugges-
ton.
"Well," said he, among other things
1t has taught you what have been
unable to impress upon you, that the
Rue Maule is good place to avoid
after dark"
ION the contrary" replied Tarzan,
with smile, 1T has convinced me
that 1t is the one worth while street in
oil Paris. Never again shall I miss
an opportunity to traverse it, for 1t has
given me the first real entertainment
have had since left Africa"
ut may give you more than you will
relish even without another visit" said
D'Arnot. "You are not through with
the police yet, remember. I know the
Paris police well enough to assure you
that they will not soon forget what
you did to them. Sooner or later they
will get you, my dear Tarzan, and
then they will lock the wild man of
will you like that?"
"They will never lock Tarzan of the
Apes behind iron bars" replied he
grimly. There was something in the
mans voice as he said it that caused
D'Arnot to look up sharply at his
friend. What he saw in the set jaw
and the cold, gray eyes made the young
Frenchman very apprehensive for this
great child, who could recognize no
law mightier than his own mighty
physical prowess. He saw that some
thing must be done to set Tarzan right
with the police before another encoun-
ter was possible.
You have much to learn, Tarzan,"
he said gravely. "The law of man
must be respected whether you relish
it or no. Nothing but trouble can
come to you and your friends should
you persist in defying the police. 1
can explain it to them once for you,
and that shall do this very day, but
hereafter you must obey the law. If
its representatives say, Gomez you
must come; If they say, Cor you must
go. Now we shall go to my great
friend in the department and fix up
this matter of the Rue Maule. Gomez
Together they entered the Office of
the police official half hour later. He
was very cordial. He remembered
Tarzan from the visit the two had
made him several months prior in the
matter Of the finger prints. Having
heard Tarzan's story, he assured him
that no harm would come to him from
the police as result Of his nights adj
venture.
On their return to D'Arnot's apart
ments the lieutenant found a letter
awaiting him from an English friend,
William Cecil Clayton, Lord Grey
stoke. The two had maintained cor
respOndence since the birth of their
friendship on that i'll fated expedition
In search Of Jane Porter after her
theft by Terk0z, the bull ape, from
whom she had been rescued by Tar
Fan.

wonderment. A man was sneaking
stealthily from the room, and in the
brief glance that Tarzan had Of him
he saw that it was Rokoff.
But the other thing that he saw was
Of more immediate interest. 1t was a
great brute of fellow tiptoeing upon
him from behind with huge bludgeon
In his hand, and then as the man and
his confederates saw that he was dis
covered there was concerted rush
upon Tarzan from all sides. Some Of
the men drew knives, others picked up
chairs, while the fellow with the bludg-
con raised it high above his head in a
mighty swing that would have crushed
Tarzan's head had it ever descended
upon it.
But the brain and the agility and the
muscles that had COPIED with the
mighty strength and cruel craftiness
of SAILOR and Numa in the fastness of
their savage jungle were not to be so
easily subdued as these apaches of
Paris had believed.
Selecting his most formidable antagO-
mist, the fellow with the bludgeon, Tar
Fan charged full upon him. lodging the
falling weapon and catching the man
a terrific blow on the point of the chin
that felled him in his tracks. Then he
turned upon the others. This was
sport. He was reveling in the joy of
battle and the lust of blood.
At the end Of the corridor without
stood Rokoff, waiting the outcome of
the affair. He wished to be sure that
Tarzan was dead before he left, but it
was not part Of his plan to be one Of
