horror Of my position.
Shortly after this episode another
prisoner was brought In and chained

that he was a red Martian and could
scarcely await the departure Of his
guards to address him. As their re-

had been constructed cages to hold
them until their turns came to meet
some horrible death upon the arena.
Kantos Kan and were confined to-
gether In one Of the cages. In the
others were wild calots, thoats, mad
xitidara. green warriors and women Of
other hordes. and many strange and
feroclous wild beasts Of Barsoom,
which I had never before seen.
Shortly after We had been Gagged
the amphitheater began to all and
within an hour every available part Of
the seating space was occupied. Oak
Kova, with his jeds and chieftains, sat
at the center Of one side Of the arena
upon q large raised platform.
At 4 signal from Oak Kova the
doors of two cages were thrown open
and a dozen green Marian females
were driven to the center Of the arena.
Each was given q dagger and then, At
the far end. q pack Of twelve calots,
or wild dogs, were loosed upon them.
Az these brutes. growing and foam.
Ing. rushed upon the almost defense
less women I turned my head that I
might not see the horrid sight. The
yells and laughter Of the green horde
hore witness to the excellent quality
Of the sport and when turned back
to the arena, as Kantos Kan told me
1t was over. I saw three victorious
calots. snarling and growing over the
bodies Of their prey. The women had
given a good account Of themselves.
Next a mad sit!dar was loosed
among the remaining dogs. and so II
went throughout the long. hot. hor-
rible day.
During the day was pitted against
irst men and zen beasts. but as was
armed with q songsword and always
outclassed my adversary In agility
and generally In strength as well. 1t
proved but childs play to me. Time
and time again I won 'he applause Of
the bloodthirsty multitude. and toward
the end there were cries that I be
taken from the arena and he made q
member of the hordes of Warhoon.
Finally there were but three Of us
left. a great green warrior Of some far
northern horde. Kantos Kan, and my
self. The other two were to battle
and then I to fight the conqueror for
the liberty which was accorded the
final winner.
Kantos Kan had fought several
times during the day and like myself
had always proven victorious. but oc-
casionalfy by the smallest Of margins,
especially when pitted against the
green warriors. had little hope that
he could best his giant adversary who
had moved down all before him dur
ing the day. The fellow lowered near
ly sixteen feet in height. while Kantos
Kan was some inches under six feet.

the first door 1t slid gently into place
behind US and receded rapidly to its

the building. :,
A second and third door receded
before me and slipped to one side as
the first, before I reached a large in.-
ner chamber where I found food and
drink set out upon a great stone table.
A voice directed me to satisfy my
hunger and to feed my calot. and
while was thus engaged my invisible
host put me through a severe and
searching cross-examination.
"Your statements are most remark.

questioning. but you are evidently

Then a door opened at the far side
Of the chamber and strange, dried

toward me. He wore but a single ar
ticle Of clothing or adornment. small
collar Of gold from which depended
upon his chest a great ornament al
