Philip Carson, who also desires Mary,

fulllp 1dTSOus WIZ dlSO ucSlICo Nuo1J
concocts a story that there is a val
liable tiger in the jungles Of Africa
for which a museum has offered a
huge sum. Robert decides to go for
the beast and Carson sends with him
two men who are told to get rid of
Robert. He takes with him locket
from Mary and gives her a parting
injunction that should she ever see
the locket again without him she may
conclude he is dead.
The strangest of adventures befall
Robert in Africa. His hut is burned
over his head by the natives. He
runs to the shore of a lake. is shot
and falls into the water. The locket
is left on shore and one of Philips
followers takes it back to Mary and
reports that Robert is dead. It would
seem as if the way were now cleared
for Carson and he is on the point Of
marrying Mary when she is told to
go to an Oriental seer.
This seer tells all that has hap
pened to the American in the jungles
adventures that rival the most ro-
mantle and thrilling of tales. And
then-the seer turns out to be Rob-
ert himself and the outcome of the
whole play is most satisfactory as
one may we'll imagine.
