have always tried to reward merit
wherever l md it. When a man
comes into my employ he is not
started at the maximum wage, but
Is started at a minimum salary, with
the understanding that as he pro-
crosses and makes himself useful
his salary will be increased in pro-
portion.
deny that I am unfavorable or
highest regard for the reputa BILE la
boring man. I am unalterably op-
posed to the man who resorts to the
strike, the walk-out or the boycott
In order to increase his salary, and
1t Is also very apparent that any
employer who surrenders his right
to direct the affairs Of his own bust
ness Will sooner or later come TO
grief.
If the demands of Milk Wagon
Drivers Local Union, No. 10, are
granted and the salaries of employees
raised from 259o to 40%, 1t must
necessarily follow that the price OF
milk to the consumer will have to
be raised, as 1t is unreasonable and
unjust to expect the producers and
dairymen to furnish good milk for
any less than they are now doing;
and so far as I oan see, If there Is
producer in order to enable him to
compensate farm labor, as it is an
indisputable fact that those who are
working on agricultural and dairy
farms are not being paid in proper
tton to other tabor, notwithstanding
the fact that they are the bone and
sinew OF the land and without them
we could not long exist.

fugitiyes were toe slow to escape from

~Challenger's eyes were shining with
the lust of slaughter.

Surely my guardian angel was very
near me then, for some instinct of

Attacked by Frightful Monsters.


was on the third day after our
forming our camp near the In
dian caves that a tragedy occur
red. Challenger and Summarize
had gone Off together that day to the
lake, where some of the natives un-
der their direction were engaged In
harpooning specimens Of the great
lizards. Lord John and l had remain
ed in our camp. while a number of the
Indians were scattered about upon the
grassy slope in front of the caves en-
gagged In different ways. Suddenly
there was a shrill cry of alarm. with
the word "Stoa" resounding from q
hundred tongues. From every side
men, women and children were rush.
ing wildly for shelter, swarming UP
the staircases and into the caves In a
mad stampede.
Looking up, we could 80 them wav-
ing their arms from the rocks above
and reckoning TO us to 1sin them In
their refuge. We had both sslsed our
magazine rides and ran out to see
what the danger could be. Suddenly
from the near belt Of treas there brok,
forth a group Of twelve or fifteen In
dams, running for their lives. and Mt
their very heels two OF those frightful
monsters which had disturbed our
camp and pursued me upon my soil.

thropoids had turned to bay and sold
his life dearly. Always In front of US
we heard the yelling and roaring which
showed the direction Of the pursuit.
The ape men had been driven back to
their city, they had made a last stand
there, once again they had been broken,
and now we were in time to see the
final fearful scene of all. Some eighty
or a hundred males, the last survivors,
had been driven across that same little
clearing which led to the edge of the
cliff, the scene of our own exploit two
days before. As We arrived the In
dams, a semicircle of spearmen. had
closed In on them, and In a minute 1t
was over. Thirty or forty died where
they stood. The others, screaming and
clawing, were thrust over the precipice
and went hurting down, as their pris-
oners had of old. on to the sharp bam-
boos GOO feet below. II was as Chal-
lenger had said. and the reign of man
was assured forever in Maple White
Land. The males were exterminated,
Ape Town was destroyed, the females
aud young were driven away to live
In bondage, and the long rivalry of III
told centuries had reached Its bloody
end.
For us the victory brought much ad-
vantage. Once again we were able to
visit our camp and get at our stores.
Once more also We were able to com
municate with Zambo, who had been
terrified by the spectacle from afar of
an avalanche OF apes falling from the
edge Of the clin.
Come away, Massas; come away!'
he cried, his eyes starting from his
head. 1.-The debbil get you sure II you
stay up there!"
1T is the voice Of sanity" said Sum-
merlee, with conviction. I'VE have
had adventures enough, aud they are
| neither suitable to our character or
our position. ! hold you to your word,
Challenger. From now onward you
devote your energies to getting Us out
| of this horrible country and back once
more to civilization"
We had returned across the plateau
with our allies two days after the bat
tie and made our camp at the foot of
their cliffs. They would have us share
their caves with them, but Lord John
would by no means consent to 1t. o n
sidering that to do SO would put us in
their power II they were treacherously
disposed. We kept our independence,
therefore, and had our weapons ready
for any emergency while preserving
the most friendly relations. We also
continually visited their caves. which
were most remarkable places. though
whether made by man or by nature
we have meter been able to determine.
They were al on the one stratum, hol-
lowed out of SOM soft rock which lay
between the volcanic basalt forming
the ruddy cliffs above them and the
| hard granite which formed their base.

Then he pointed to us. These strange

The little red warriors hung upon
the words OF the speaker. and when he
had finished they burst into a roar of
applause, waving their rude weapons
In the air. The old chief stepped for
ward to us and asked us some ques-
tions, pointing at the same time to the
woods. Lord John made a sign to
him that he should wait for an answer
and then he turned to us.

of them came our way, and the tired
fugitives, red and white, had a long.

We had imagined that our pursuers,
the ape men, knew nothing of u

soon to find out our mistake. There
