"See," cried one of them from the
ledge as he caught sight Of one Of
our helmets appearing.
The others crouched and stared. Del
Mar himself hurried forward and gazed
in the direction the man indicated.
There they could see Woodward. Ar
mold and the rest of us Just beginning
to climb up out Of the water.
Del Mar aimed and fired. One Of
the men had thrown up his arms with
a cry and fallen back into the water.
Invaders seemed to swarm up now
in every direction from the water.
On the semi.circular ledge about one
side of the harbor, Del Mars men were
now ranged in close order near sub
marine, whose hatch was open to re-
ccive them, ready to repel the attack
and il necessary retreat into the under
sea boat.
They fired sharply at the figures
that rose from the water. Many of
the men fell back, hit, but. in turn,
large number managed to gain a
foothold on the ledge.
Led by Arnold and Woodward, they
formed quickly and stripped of the
waterproof coverings of their weap-
ons, returning the fire sharply. Things
were more equal now. Several of Del
Mars men had fallen. The smoke Of
battle filled the narrow harbor.
ms,the office Elaine listened keenly
to the shots. What did it all mean?
Clearly it could be nothing less than
assistance coming.
The man on guard heard also and
his uncomfortable curiosity took him
to the door. AS he gazed out Elaine
saw her chance. She made rush at
him and seized him, wrestling the rife
from his hands before he knew It.
She sprang back Just as he drew his
revolver and fired at her. The shot Just
narrowly missed her, but she did
not lose her presence of mind. She
fired the rifle in turn and the man
fell.
A little shudder ran over her She
had killed a man! But the firing out

to think. She stepped over the body.

she could see Del Mar and his men.

Utah Furnishes Expo Material.

The state OF Utah has made another
record, of which It is very proud. 1t
seems that all the gypsum used In the
construction Of the San Diego fair
buildings and so per cent of that used
for the San Francisco fair came from
the quarries near Nephi, Utah. 1t Is
now well known that gypsum is one OF
the Oldest building materials. 1t was
used extensively in the building OF
the pyramids and very largely IN the
construction of the monumental archi-
tectural edifces reared by the Greeks
and the Romans.
The product of gypsum used in the
fair buildings is known as staff" and
was cast to initiate the famous Roman
travertine. OF it's beauty thousand
writer's have written. Utah is proud
that it furnished the material for the
exposition structures and proud that
it could have furnished the material
for the wonders of the ancients.

She looked about for some weapon.
There on the ledge lay one of the
hand grenades. She picked it up and
hurled 1t at him, but he lodged and 1t

the submarine. AS 1t exploded. another
of Del Mars men toppled over into
the water.
Between volleys, Woodward, Arnold
and the rest pulled off their helmets.
"Elaine!" cried Arnold, catching
sight of her in the hands of Del
Mar.
Quickly, at the head of such men
as he could muster, the hermit led a
charge.
In the submarine the last man was
waiting for Del Mar. AS the her
NIT ran forward with several soldiers
between Del Mar and the submarine,
it was evident that Del Mar would be
cut of.
The man at the hatch climbed down
into the boat. 1t was useless to
wait. Slowly the submarine began
to sink.
Del Mar by this time had overcome
Elaine and started to run toward the
submarine with her. But then he
stopped short.

He banged shut the door just as the

was locked.
In the office Del Mar hastily went to

only to himself.

himself. 81 must get Elaine. I can

The workmen signaled to the en-
gineer above and the car ran up the
wharf and up an incline at the shore

The moment the car disappeared
Del Mar hurried away in the direction
he had come.
At the top of the grade, he noticed,
was a donkey engine which operated
the cable that drew the car up from
the dock, and at the top OF the in
cline was a huge pile Of material.
The car had been drawn up to the

THIRTY-SlXTH EPISODE
THE KENNEDY WIRELESS TOR.
PEDO.

Half carrying, half forcing Elaine
down into the water, Del Mar and his
two men. all four of the party clad
In the outlandish submarine suits, bore
the poor girl literally along the bottom
OF the bay until they reached point
which they knew to be directly under
the entrance to the secret submarine
harbor.
Del Mars mind was working fe-
verishly. Though he now had in his
power the girl he both loved and also
feared as the stumbling block in the
execution of his nefarious plans
getting her he had been forced to be-
tray the precious secret Of the har-
Dor itself.
At the point where he knew that
the harbor was above him, hidden
safely beneath the promontory, he
took from under his arm float which
he released. Upward it shot through
the water.
Above, in the harbor, a number Of
his men were either on guard or loung-
ing about.
"a signai from the chief" cried a
sentry, pointing to the float as it
bobbed up.
Kick off the lead Shoes" signaled
Del Mar to the others, under the
water.
They did SO and rose slowly to the
surface, carrying Elaine up with them.
The men at the surface were waiting
for them and helped to pull Del Mar
and his companions out of the water.
Come into the office, right away"
beckoned Del Mar anxiously, removing
his helmet and leading the way.
In the office, the others removed
their helmets, while Del Mar took the
headgear off Elaine. She stared about
her bewildered.
Where am II" she demanded.
"A woman!" exclaimed the men in
the harbor In surprise.
Never mind where you are"
growled Del Mar, plainly worried.
Then to the men, he added. 1--WE can't
stay any longer. The harbor is dis
covered. Get ready to leave imme-
diately."
Immediately there was a general
scramble to make ready for the es-
cape.
In the corner OF the office. Elaine,
again in her skirt and shirtwaist
which the diving suit had protected,
sat open-eyed watching the prepara-
tions of the men for the hasty depar-
ture. Some had been detailed to get
the rifles which they handed around to
those as yet unarmed. Del Mar took
one as we'll as a cartridge belt.
Guard her." he shouted to one
man indicating Elaine. land If she gets
away this time, I'll shoot you."
Then he led tho others down the
ledge until he came to submarine
boat. The rest followed, still making
preparations for hasty flight.

soldiers, after the disappearance OF
