HIGH SCHOOL MEETS OLD
RIVALS, LEONARDO FIVE

By p. A. II. 8. Correspondent
tomorrow afternoon the basketball
team of the local high school will 20
on the road, and present their card at
Leonard High School. This will be
the second time these two schools
have met. The first struggle resulted
in Amboy swamping their Leonardo
rivals by a score of 80 to Z.
Amboy High has been going astray
in the last three games. Newark
Normal Varsity started the local boys
at SO to 20, then New Brunswick
High School helped the wandering
Crimson and White team along with
another defeat by the tune of "A to 6,
and to furnish a climax, Chattle High
School Of Long Branch, plastered
them with 68 to % score
Coach Evans has been trying to
doctor up his once strong and speedy
combination with repeated doses of
some of his myterious medicine and
many hard practices.
Captain Wilentz Is out Of the game,
having been Ill even before the New
ark Normal struggle, but managed to
keep going until the New Brunswick
contest. Taking these two defeats to
heart and the unwise trip, with his
class to witness the Music Master"
in New York city, he became confined
to his bed with an attack of bron-
chitis.
Evans will chaperon his make-shift
crew, which will consist of Pfeiffer
and Gadek as the guards, Schwartz In
the pivot position and Glochau and
Smith as his running pard, as for
wards. Kutcher and Vincent will be
the extra men.
Schwartz will act as captain until
the return of Wilentz. He has been
one of the most consistent players of
the local team and along with Cap
tain Wilentz the best point getter of
the squad.
Leonard will have in its line up the
same combination as of old, Acker-
man and Captain Mullison in the for
ward positions, H. Bennett as the
jump man. and j. Gray, c. Bennett

CHAPTER iv-oontInued.

The Rangar's eyes blazed for sec
ond and then grew cold again as King
did not fail to observe. All this while
the women danced on, in time to wall
Ing flute music, until, it seemed from
nowhere, a lovelier woman than any
of them appeared in their midst, sit
ting cross-legged with a flat basket at
her knees. She sat with arms raised
and swayed from the waist as if in a
delirium. Her arms moved in narrow
ing circles, higher and higher above
the basket lid, and the lid began to
rise. It was minutes before the bodies
of two great king cobras could be
made out, moving against the womans
spangled dress with hoods raised, hiss
ing the cobra's hate-song that is pre-
Lude to the poison-death.
They struck at the woman, one after
the other, and she leaped out of their
range, swift and as supple as they.
Instantly then she joined in the dance,
with the snakes striking right and
left at her. Left and right she swayed
to avoid them, far more gracefully
than q matador avoids the bull and
counting deadlier peril than he-poi-
sonous, two to his one. AS she danced
she whirled both arms above her head
and cried as the werew0lves are said
to do on stormy nights.
'Do you do this often?" wondered
King, in calm aside to Rewa Gunga,
turning half toward him and taking his
eyes off the dance without any very
great effort.
Rewa Gunga clapped his hands and
he dance ceased The woman spirited
her snakes away. The blind was
drawn upward and in a moment all
was normal again with the punkah

altered tone of voice. He seemed re-

CHAPTER VI.

Long before dawn the thirty prison
ers and Ismail squatted in little herd
on the up-platform of railway sta
ton, shepherded by King, who smoked
cheroot some twenty PAGES away,
sitting on an unmarked chest of medi-
cines. He seemed absorbed in book
on surgery. Ismaii nursed the new
handbag on his knees, picking ever
lastingly at the lock and wondering
audibly what the bag contained to an
accompaniment Of low-growled sympa'
thy.

"A razor would slit the leather eag

later, the bag might be pushed vic

Ismail shook his head.
"Why? What could he do to thee?"

"Ayel We are her men!" came the
chorus, so that King looked up and
watched them over the open book.
At dawn, when the train pulled out
the thirty prisoners sat safely locked
in third-class compartments. King
lay lazily on the cushions Of first

Saunders led the way through mod

royal princes stables.
In gloom that was only thrown into
contrast by a widespread row Of cleo
trio lights, long line of barred and
locked converted horse stalls ran down
one side of lean-to building. All that
King could see of the men within was
the whites of their eyes. And they did
not look friendly.
He had to pass between them and
the light, and they could see more of
him than he could of them. At the

sweat from his face with a dripping

expected. In front of him Saunders
eyed the proffered black cheroots sus-
piciously, accepted one with an air Of
curiosity and passed the casa hack.

"Um-m-m!' King rubbed his chin.

"Sure! He's one of Easmini's pets.
