A moment later his eyes were above
the level of the obstacles, taking in all
within their range beyond. There was
no one in sight close by, and Korak
drew himself to the top and dropped
lightly to the ground within the In
closure.
Then he commenced his stealthy
search of the village. First toward the
Arab tents he made his way, smiling
and listening. He passed behind them,
searching for some sign of Meriem.
Not even the wild Arab ours heard his
passage, so silently he went-a shadow
passing through shadows.
Naked but for his leopard skin and
his loin cloth, Korak the Killer SUNK

tent, where his keen scent told him
Meriem was. His sharp knife slit a
six foot opening in the tent WALL and

through upon the astonished visions Of
the inmates. as; q.
Meriem saw and recognized. him the
instant that he entered the apartment.
Her heart leaped in pride and Joy at
the sight of the noble figure Cor which
it had hungered so long. x ~
"Korak !" she cried. r.
"MeriemI' He uttered the single
word as he hurled himself upon the
inmates Of the tent. Three negresses
leaped from their sleeping mats,
screaming. MerIem tried to prevent
them from escaping. but before she
could succeed the terrified blscks had
darted. through the hole In the tent
wall made by Korak's knife and were
gone screaming through the village.
Korak turned toward Meriem, and
at the same moment a bloody and
disheveled apparition leaped into the

FISH PRODUCE MANY EGGS
Scientific Count Shows Perch 10'S

More in Small Than Large

Information concerning the number
of eggs produced by various species OF
fish has been limited mainly to rather
rough estimates.
According to the Allgemelne Ffsch'
erei-Zeitung, some careful counts were
made last year at the Bavarian trout
hatchery: The first investigations were
In connection with common trout and
rainbow trout; IS specimens OF the
former and 81 of the latter were
stripped, and the ova counted. The
older and heavier fish were found 10

about 10000, but the younger nsn
yielded decidedly larger number o!
eggs in proportion to the weight OF
the fish. SO
The experiments were repeated with

the females just about,to spawn being
killed, and the oyaries being removed
and dissected. The number of eggs In
perch ranged from $40 for a fish four

CHAPTER XVI.
A Strange Meeting.

g Sometimes lOlling upon Tantor's
back, sometimes roaming the jungle in
solitude, Korak made his way slowly
toward. the west and south. He made
but a few miles day, for he had q
whole lifetime before him and no place
in particular to go. Possibly he would
have moved more rapidly but for the
thought which continually haunted him
that each mile he Travelled carried him
farther and farther away from Mer-
iem-no longer his Meriem, as of yore,
If is true, but still as dear to him as
ever.
Thus he came upon the trail of the
sheik's band as it Travelled down river
from the point where the sheik had
captured Meriem to its own stOckaded
village. Suddenly he came to the camp
of the renegade Swede Malbihn, whose
black attendants fed in terror at sight
OF TantOr and KOrak.

For It was Baynes. who. despite his
wounds, had made his way to tho
sheik's village.
Korak turned and looked at the new
conner. He had been about to take
Meriem in his arms forgetful of all
that might have transplred since last
he had seen her. Then the coming
of the young Englishman recalled the
scene he had witnessed in the little
clearing. and wave Of misery swept
over the ape man.
Already from without came the
sounds of the alarm that the three
nesresses had started. Men were rum
ming toward the tent. There was no
time to be lost.

canopy before his tent. His wounds
were painful. and he had lost much
blood. He was very weak. He looked
up in surprise as he heard the screams
of his men and saw them running to-
ward the gate. <.
And then from around the corner OF
his tent loomed huge bulk, and Tan
tor, the great ,usKer, lowered above
him.
Malbihn's boy, feeling neither affec'
ton nor loyalty for his master, broke
and ran at the first glimpse of the
beast, and Malbihn was left alone, and
helpless. The elephant stopped a
couple of PAGES from the wounded
mans hammock. Malbihn covered,
moaning. He was too weak to escape.
He could only lie there with staring
eyes, gazing In horror into the blood
trimmed. angry little orbs fixed upon
him, and await his death.
Then, to his establishment, a man
slid to the ground from the elephants
back. Almost at once Malbihn recog-
nized the strange figure us that of the
creature who consorted with apes and
baboons--the white warrior of the jun

It was from Malbihn's dying lips
| that Korak learned Of the Swede's en-
counter with Baynes and how Meriem
was again in the camp Of the sheik.
| Korak lost no time in seeking her.
When speed was required Korak de-
pended upon no other muscles than his
own, and SO 1t was. that the moment
Tantor had landed him safely upon
the same side OF the river as lay the
village of the sheik the ape man de-
serted his bulky comrade and took to
the trees in a rapid race toward the
south and the spot where the Swetie
had told him Meriem might. be.
It was dark when he came. to the
pallside, strengthened considerably

cruel confines. No longer did the giant

W. r. Knight, Promoter of Interurban Electric Lines, Pays Visit

W.P. Knight, of Toledo, O., a pro- nnoter of interurban electric lines. ar rived in Mena last Wednesday. and with Secretary Eastin of the Com mercial Club, W. J. Lauck and R. L. Park, left Friday to view the route, go- ing and coming from Hot Springs
 Mir. Knieht, thru meeting N. R. Oneal several months ago, became in- terested in this country and the Mena- Hot Springs project Since that time he has had some correspondence with the Commercial Club and this led up to the present visit and trip.
 Mir. Knight comes with high-class credentials. and states definitely and positively that in this project, if it finally develops, there will be no call on Mena for a bonus or to buy bonds, the construction to be financed wholly from Eastern capital. He will, how ever, expect Mena, Hot Springs and intermediate points, to assist in pre- pairing necessary data and in securing the survey and estimates on which the enterprise will be capitalized.
 It is expected the party will return sometime Sunday.
