he saw The jungle's edge came
down nearly to the water. Something
was stirring in this. thicket, Joe

woman Inez Castro, peered out from
behind the huge leaf Of tropic plant.

to the brain of Joe Welcher. Joe
read.
The note was brief and to the point:
We do not board this steamer.
But we must reach Santa Maria
first. u 10 up to you and you alone,
to create all possible delays. DO
not fail us now.
That night at dusk, Joe Welcher
lounging on the sdeck of the small
steamer as it steamed north along the
coast shambled over toward scut-
tie, and peered down to see what he
could go. What he did see was ma
chinery-the vessels machinery. work

for-for q steamboat engineer, is q!
steamboat engineer the world over.
What he saw was that for the moment,
no one was In charge-momentarily
the engineer had stepped outside. This
was the instant that Joe Welcher had
been waiting for. Flrtively he drew
from his breast pocket small bar of
steel. For one instant he held it sus-
pended over the machinery. Then he
let it drop and noiselessly tiptoed
away.
Almost Immediately there was ter
rife grinding noise below, followed by
terrific Jolt. Then the engines
stopped-and the steamer followed
suit. Passengers and crew rushed to-
the captain-Annette included.

At midnight the break had not yet

At midnight, another small steamer,
also bound north along the coast,
passed silently along upon her way.
She was within hailing distance, but
she gave no sign.

In the interior Of the chart room on

A senior officer was porting over

Finally he rose. "A new coaling

Neal almost jumped out of his skin.
There is an island there, uncharted
and unmappsd," said Neal. but It's
there. It's the Isle OF Cinnabar-Fe

"Who calls it the Lost Isle?"
Neal told them Annette's story,
from start to finish.
The commander smiled. I'VE get

The Jaouar's Mate.


A lieutenant from the battleship
Missouri clapped Neal on the shout
\aer.
Well" he said, ensign, we're still
following your girl. Pleasant occu-
patton for you, eh."
Looks as il I'd do it all my life,
| said Neal, "but some day hope to
catch up to her"
The officers were in charge Of q
small squad of men who had landed
at Santa Maria in Lower California,
under orders from Washington, and
under advices from the United States
district attorney in California. They
were on the track of coaling station
the United States wanted to make
a treaty with girl. The girl was
here somewhere.
Hello" said Neal, "look. There's
a horse-a riderless horse. Go on,
boys-get it, double quick" -
Three of the squad caught the
horse and brought it to Neal.

"Ah, yon speak truth, son" said
Brother Anselmo. He rose and left
the room, returning Immediately with
the iron box containing the documents

There was hubbub outside in the

With bound the Brute was upon
her. He darted to the very edge of
the pit, and with the surefootedness OF
an animal crouched there, throwing
his entire body forward and catching
her by the shoulders just as she dis
appeared from sight. He drew her
back to terra f1rma. No sooner had
he done so, however, than Ponto was
upon them both, knife in hand, his
teeth literally gnashing xith rage.
He hurled savage knife-thrust at
the Brute-and missed. Then he threw
himself upon Annette and half tore
her in his frenzy from the Brute's
grasp, cutting and slashing at them
both with his wicked knife.
I've got you now, you little wild

He thrust her savagely into the pit.
Once more the Brute caught her-and
in so doing swung the three of them
around, so that their positions were
reversed. Ponto, throwing caution to
the winds. kept lunging at the two
with his sharp weapon.
"I'll get you both" he yelled. I'll
get you both"
A moment later he was clawing at

frantic struggle to preserve his bal
