SYNOPSIS.

Lieut.. Jarvis Hope is detailed by the
United States naval board to investigate
and report his findings on the invention
of DR.. Ralph Burke, which serves to bring
the submarine to a state of perfection.
The lieutenant arrives in Valdavia and
is welcomed by the inventor and his
daughter Cleo. On the trial trip of the
inventors boat, a Japanese helper is sur
prised in the act of examining the
mechanism of the Ventilati1g device. Hope
reports favorably on the new device but
there are others interested in it. An at
tempt to burglarize Doctor Burke's labor
atory fails, but later Cleo finds him muir
dered in his bedroom. Cleo sells her ia

Hope she races to the aUctiOneer'S store

blasting operations, presumably for
the purpose of improving the little
harbor, while on the shore had been
erected a rude hut for the storage Of
the workmen's tools. So little was
there to fear from marauders in this
remote spot that there was not even
lock on the door Of the Toulouse,
whose only contents, as Mahiin found
upon investigation, were some picks,
shoyels and crowbars, a key of nails,
a few coils of wire and a box marked
Dynamite"
Following the directions given them
by the officer at the radio station,
they followed the precipitous footpath
which led from the landing up the
rocky slope to the plateau. Twenty
minutes of stiff climbing brought
them to the shack where, so they had
been told, they would probably find
Fitzmaurice staying. The shack, a
f1imsy affair of rough lumber, hung
literally between sea and sky, for half
of it rested on the rock, while the
other half, which was supported by a
framework of light timbers, over
hung the ocean.
There being no response to his
knock, Mahlin, finding the door IN
locked, entered the cabin. Though
the single room which it contained
was vacant, the remains of meal on
the table and the rumpled blankets on
the bunk, which was built against the
wall, together with the odor of tobac-
co smoke, showed that it had been
very recently occupied. Suddenly Sat
suma, who had been prowling about
the room, gave an exclamation.
Here are the books," he cried,
holding up two bulky, 1eather-bound
volumes.
Mah1in unceremoniously snatched
them from him
You're right" he said. They're
the very books we're after"
He broke off abruptly and stood
listening.

SEEK PRESERVATION OF ELK
Nation Is Waking to the Danger of the
Extinction of Animal in This
Country.

There are, according to estimates
made by the National Sportsmen,
about 100000 elk in this country, Of
which 2,2OO are in captivity in 125 diff
ferent places. The largest herd, Eum-
boring, according to the government
census, between $4,000 and $1,000, is
in the Yellowstone region. In the
summer these elk range in the vicinity
OF the continental divide in the park.
Since the settlement OF the valleys the
elk which are forced TO descend from
the mountains in the winter in order
20 obtain food have starved in large
numbers. Since 1909, winter feeding
has been provided by the state OF
Wyoming and the federal government,
and recently congress appropriated
$4,000 for the purchase OF 1900 acres
near Jackson. WyO-, where sufficient
hay can be raised each year to feed
the herds during the winter. During
late years the government has expert
mented with small herds numbering
about 100. which have been transferred
to ID different states for the purpose
OF restocking reservations. In this
way it is hoped that wild elk can be
retained in this country permanently.
The Adirondack herd was rapidly ap-
preaching extinction when the govern
ment and the state OF New York took
a hand. 1t is believed that after the
fate OF the buffalo many states viii at

elk in country which is unfit for farm

books along. Satsuma; wen have to
make a break for it," and he darted
out of the cabin.
The japanese, pausing only long
enough to snatch up the books, fol-
lowed. As he appeared in the door
way of the shack Hope recognized
him.
'By heaven!" he cried, cts Satsu-
mai" and he dashed forward with
Fitzmaurice at his heels. But Mahlin
and Satsuma did not await them. The
former fed down the path leading to
the harbor where they had left their
launch, while the japanese, momen-
tarily confused by Hopes unexpected
appearance. turned and ran bIindly in
the opposite direction.
'fPII take the JapI" Hope shouted to
Fitzmaurice. He's got the books I'm
after. You attend to the other fell
low"
The chase which followed led across
a country broken by unexpected out
groupings of rocks, by stretches of
loose stones, by enormous crags and
powders; it led across furze-covered
hiIIsides and other hilIsides carpeted
with wild wiregrass. Suddenly, when
his pursuer was only few PAGES be
hind him Satsuma swerved and dashed
/ down a narrow path which apparently
/ promised a means of escape But in
stead of leading down the cliff, as he
| had supposed, it ended abruptly on a
/ precipice-bo rdered headland. The Jap
anese could go no farther! Behind
/ him was pursuer whom he knew to
| be relentless; before him a dizzy
precipice, and at the foot Of it, 200
feet below, the sea. Hope, confident
that Satsuma Gould not now escape,
was advancing on him determinedly
when all at once the Oriental whipped
out a pistol, there was a fash and
bang, and a bullet sang past Hopes
head. He threw himself against q
rock, and as he did so second bull
let fattened against it Whenever
he showed himself Satsuma's pistol
