lief as the thlng-whateve 1t was
was shut in Its cage. And now 1t was
out, lodging through the trees let
loose by the two men. He heard some
thing crash into a bush on his right,
and give a snarl Of anger. Like flash
he swerved into the underground on
the left.
Then began a dreadful game, He
was still some way from the fence,
and he was hampered at every step
by the man slung over his back. He
could hear the thing laundering
about searching for him, and sudden
ly, with cold feeling Of fear, he
realized that the animal was in front
Of him-that his way to the gate was
barred. The next moment he saw
1t.
Shadowy indlstinct, in the darkness,
he saw something glide between two
bushes, Then 1t came out into the
open, and he knew 1t had seen him,
though as yet he could not make out
what it was.
Cautiously he lowered the million
aire to the ground, and took a step
forward. 1t was enough; with q snarl
Of fury the crOuchln-
shambled toward him. Two hairy arms
shot out toward his throat, he smelt
the brute's fOetid breath, hot and lOath-
some, and he realized what he was
up against. 1t was a partially grown
gorilla.
For a full minute they fought In
silence, save for the hOarse grunts Of
the animal as 1t tried to tear away
the mans hand from its throat and
then encircle him with its powerful
arms And with his brain cold as Ice
Hugh saw his danger and kept his
head. 1t couldn't go on; no human
being could last the pace, whatever his
strength. And there was only one
chance Of finishing it quickly, the pos
sibillty that the grip taught him by
Olaki would serve with monkey as it
did with man.
He shifted his left thumb an inch
or two on the brute's throat. and the
baboOn, thinking he was weakening,
redoubled its efforts. And then, little
by little, the fingers moved, and the
grip which had been tight before grew
tighter still. Back went Its head /;
something was swapping in its neck.
With a scream of fear and rage II
wrapped its legs round Drummond,
squeezing and writhing. And then sud-
denly there was tearing snap, and
the great limbs relaxed and grew
limp.
For moment the man stood watch.
ing the still qulvering brute lying at
his feet; then, with a gasp Of utter
exhaustion, he dropped on the ground
himself. He was done-utterly
cooked; even Peterson's voice close
behind scarcely reused him.
quite one OF the most amusing en-
tertalnments I've seen for long time"
The calm, expresslonless voice made
him look up wearily, and he saw that
he was surrounded by men. The in
evitable cigar glowed red in the dark
ness, and after a moment or two he
scrambled unsteadily to his feet.
"Td forgotten your id menagerie
I must frankly confess" he remarked
whats the party for?" He glanced
at the men who had closed In round
him.
"A guard of honor, my young
friend" said Peterson suavely, "to lead
you to the house. l wouldn't hesitate
it's very foolish. Your friends
have gone, and, strong as you are,
don't think you can manage ten."
Hugh commenced to stroll toward
the house.
"Well don't leave the wretched
Potts lying about. l dropped him over
there"

CHAPTER VI-Contlnued,

THREE.

Hugh stopped his car at Gulldford
station and, lighting a cigarette,
lStrolled restlessly up and down. He
looked at his watch dozen times In
two minutes; he threw away his
smoke before 1t was half finished. In
short he manifested every symptom
usually displayed by the male of the
species when awaiting the arrival of
the opposite sex. Over the telephone
he had arranged that she should come
by train from GOdalming to confer
with him on a matter Of great import.
ance; she had said she would, but
what was 1t? he, having no suitable
answer ready, had made q loud buzz
Ing noise Indicative Of a telephone
exchange in pain, and then rung off.
And now he WAS waiting in that pc
culiar condition Of mind, which reveals
itself Outwardly In hands that are
rather too warm, and feet that are
rather too cold.
when is this bally train likely to
arrive2' He accosted a phlegmatlc
official, who regarded him coldly, and
doubted the likelihood of it's being
more than quarter Of an hour early.
At length it was signaled, and Hugh
got back into his car. Feverishly he
scanned the faces Of the passengers as
they came out into the street, until,
with a sudden quick jump OF his
heart, he saw her, cool and fresh,
coming toward him with a faint
smile on her lips.
"What is this very important matter
you want to talk to me about?" she
demanded, as he assisted her into his
car.
"Tll tell you when we get out on
the Hogs Back" he said slipping in
his clutch. "Tts absolutely vital"
He stole a glance at her, but she
was looking straight in front OF her,
and her face seemed expressionless.
you must stand a long way off
when you do" she said demurely.
Eat least II it's the same thing as you
told me over the phone"
Hugh grinned sheeplshly.
"The exchange went wrong" he re-
marked at length. Astonishing how
rotten the telephones are in town these
days"
"Qulte remarkable" she returned.
II thought you weren't feeling very
well or something. OF course, If it
was the exchange :"
'They sort of buzz and blow, don't
you know" he explained helpfully.
THAT must be most fearfully jolly
for them" she agreed. And there
was silence for the next two miles.
Once or twice he looked at her out
Of the corner Of his eye, taking In
every detail Of the sweet profile so
near to him. Except for their first
meeting at the Carlton, II was the
only time he had ever had her COM
pletely to himself, and Hugh was de-
termlned to make the most Of it. He
felt as If he could go on driving for
ever. just he and she alone. 1t was
then that the girl turned and looked
at him. The car swerved danger
ously. -.
Lets STOP" she said, with the sus-
picion Of smile. "Then you can tell
me-"
Hugh drew into the side of the
road, and switched off the engine.
you're not fair" he remarked, and
II the girl saw his hand trembling a
little as he opened the door, she gave
no sign. BE came and stood beside

Wild, blathering and bleating Tom
Blanton, the Gentleman from Texas"
is in a peck of trouble" at Washing
ton. Charges were made against him
in a resolution introduced by Rep.
Mondell, the republican leader, in
which it is held that Blanton abused
his ''leaye to print" privilege.
1t seems that the irate Texan got in
bad when he injected into the Con-
gressional Record a letter and affida-
Wit containing obscene and profane
matter. Blanton made speech against
the government printing office,
charging it was run by union labor
and of course in the eyes of the blat-
ant Blanton this would be an awful,
awful crime. Ny, how that Texas
cyclone does love union man-like
the average human loves a rattle
snake. He produced number of let
ters and affidavits to show how un-
comfortable union printers make it
for non-union printers in the govern
ment printery.
Among the letters was the duplicate
of one sent by non-union employe
to the public printer reciting the al
legged language used by a union print
er to non-union man. Every sem
tence of that letter contained pro-
fame and obscene word. It was
printed in the Record and sent broad
cast through the mails.
The speech was made on Saturday.

COMPENSATION

On next Tuesday the people of the
state of Ohio will vote on the con-
stitutional amendment giving the ex-
service men SO for every month they
were in service during the world war.
Many are under the impression that
this is bonus for the boys. That
is a mistake The adjusted compen-
sation is not a bonus. 1t is merely
a proposal that the ex-service men
of Ohio shall receive additional COM
pensation adjusted in the light of the
economic benefits received by those
who remained at home and the eco
nomic losses to those who served from
Ohio during the war 1t is, therefore,
adjusted compensation and not bo-
nus. The "boys" are certainly en-
titled to all they would receive under
the provisions of the amendment and
more. Vote yes" on the amendment
for adjusted compensation.
