And Hictaner was silent.
There was a moment of -bsolute

+"Silence. gentlemen Admiral Ger

Hictaner was preparing to leave the
platform, when loud voice wos heard
in the back room saying:
Gentlemen, he Is a liar. There nre
not two Hictaners lighting tbs world
He is alone. alone, alone! Do ut let
him escape"
while all the delegates and specta-
tors were turning toward the speaker.
Hictaner himself stood rigid with fear
upon the platform.
In front OF box they saw a man
stand up full In the light, Sld in the
heard him declaIm:

It was a bolt from the skies. He
taner saw at once what IVES TO hap

secrets OF the Lost Isle and Hictaner
knew that his end was near II he did
not take advantage of the general con-
fusion to escape
His decision was made in an instant,
and he fed.
The door through which lie had en-

he heard Severac's voice crying:

But already he was outside. In the
