u. S. MARINES MAKE BIG HIT
AT RIO
ny United press.j

Rio De Janeiro, Nov. THE Uni.
ted States marines have made good
in Rio. The girls like them and
don't hesitate to show it. They are
here to represent Uncle Sam at the
centennial. t
The camp is pitched in the city
park, on the Avenia Beira Mar, on
the bay front. The site is one of the
prettiest in the city. Everything used
in the construction of the camp came
from the United States. Every teni
has a floor and is lighted by cleo,
tricity. Two men occupy tent. An
iron bed for each man, a wardrobe
and two locker trunks complete the
furnishings. u $50 ~ :5ft-f
There are six officers and 161 en-
listed men in the detachment. 1t is
known as the SD Company, 9Th Regi-
ment, u. S. NJ. c., and includes the
band of that regiment. The COM
mading officer is Major Randolph
Ceyle, U. S NJ. c. His eighteen
years of service have taken him all
over the world-to Cuba, Mexico,
Hayti, China and the Philippines.
Major Coyle says that the men in
this detachment have been specially
selected from various marine posts
because of their records as soldiers,
physical qualifications and general
excellence of department. Their ac>
tions and bearing in this city show
that no mistakes were made in Sc
lecting these men. According to Ma
ior Coyle, not a man has overStayed
his leave.
The routine of the camp is: Reveille

CHAPTERV v.
The Bitter CUP.

Hardly had they topped the rise be-
hind which the cache was situated
when the full force of the wind caught
them. A blizzard was sweeping up,
and it grew In strength all that morn
Ing, until by noon 1t was almost a hur-
ricane. They pushed or doggedly I'M
til about one o'clock, avoiding the
temptation to rest at the auxiliary
caches which had been established
along this part Of the road.
At one o'clock they came TO an
empty cache and horse stable, which
had been built in anticipation Of win
ter development work, and had formed
the hub Of many radiating r%ecOnnOis-
sance roads, They had come no more
than six miles, and ii vas still q good
fifteen into Clayton. BY this time the
blizzard had increased to an intense
violence, driving great sheets Of snow
along the roAd. 1t was impossible 10
face such q hurricane any longer.
"We'll have to wait till this lets up
a bit, Molly" said Wilton.
The little shack, hardly more than
four walls and 81 voOf, was ~unOcCupied.
Wilton broke down the door and went
in. He found the key of the stable,
unlocked it, and embarrassed the dogs.
He drove them in and shut the door.
Then he took the blankets out Of the
sleigh and went into the shack.
To build a fire was impossible, but
they ate biscuit and timed beef, wash
ing il down with water.
"Itll have to let up soop," said VIII
ton. IF it doesn't, Wen just have
to face 1t again.
A dozen times he had regretted hav-
ing yielded TO her insistence to &C.
company him. Travelling In that
weather was hard on a man, let alone
a girl such as Molly. He looked a.
her In wonder as he saw her apparent
unconcern, the courage with which She
faced the difficulties Of the journey
But his fears were centered chiefly
on Kitty. Suppose he couldn't go on
Suppose he couldn't be at the share
holders meeting on the morrow!
Toward the middle of the afternoon
the wind seemed to have lessened
though the driven snow still swept II
binding clouds along the road. Il

during the night.
They must have guessed that those
men meant TO arrest you, or else they
heard them talking" said Molly.
But Wilton had hurried to the horse
stalls, separated from the dog stable
by q stout door. He breathed n deep
sigh Of relief. The second sleigh was
there. For a moment the thought or
possibilities had made his heart almost
stand still.
He came back grim and resolute.
There's something pretty deep In NIL
this business he said. Il know why
the men ran away. The sergeant gave
them the tip to. ! saw him talking TO
Paplllon last night. And that's the
reason why they wouldn't sleep in the
shack-because they meant to run. /
suppose the policemen were afraid
hat they would make trouble, or try
TO help us. But l can't fathom 1t.
Those men acted like criminals. That's
not the way Of the police"
He clenched his fist and swore un-
der his breath.
I'll have those fellows broke for

said. "And I'm going to run down

Tom Bowyer's at the bottom OF It."
but firSt-remember Kitty" said
Molly softly, laying her hant on Will
tons shoulder.
Even the slight touch made him
vince, for the pain OF his broken arm
was becoming unbearable. He realized
hat in all probability he was in for a
long spell OF illness. He knew that
the bone would have TO be reset. His
head felt strangely light, and the
ground seemed to slope dOwnhill from
him in all directions. But he shut his
teeth hard, and would not let Molly
guess. And n feveriSh energy took
possession Of him. He must hold out
for the Journey, until after the share
holders meeting-until he had told
Kitty!
"Well take the police sled and start
at once" he said TO Molly. ut looks
as If q storm was brewing. I'll tell
Andersen to let those fellows go about
noon, and I'll leave the revolver with
him"
Inside the shack they found the po-
licemen eating their breakfast on the
floor, with the caretaker diligently
serving them. They were still bound,
but their hands were free.
Turn them loose ut noon, Ander-
SEN" Wilton said. "Give them enough
s~lap-bang TO carry them on their way.
Just turn them loose and see that they
haven't any dangerous weapons to Go
you mischief with"
you bet l take care for that"
grinned the Swede.
Wilton let Andersen harness the
dogs. to save his strength for the jour
ney. In q few minutes the sled was
ready, with the sleigh carrying Joe's
body attached behind, and the huskies,
~harnessed, sitting doclle in the snow,
awaiting the command to mush.
The sun was just showing above the
horizon when Wilton and Molly start
ed on the second stage of their jour
ney to Clayton.

retreating till his back was against
the wall of the shack, he laid about
him with the shortened stock.
With gaping jaws and wicked, blood
shot eyes, the pack came on again and
again, leaping at him, tearing at his
clothes; one sank It's fangs into his
right hand, and, as he freed himself
with n smashing blow, the others were
upon him sideward.
In an instant he was struggling with
his one hand against the heavy bodies
that bore him back, shielding his
throat, thrusting the whipstock into
the red, cavernous jaws, while the an.
guish from his wrenched shoulder al.
most made him scream with pain.
Everything was swimming round
him. They had him down. Their bel
lowing bowls grew fainter In his ears.
Mechanically he kept his right hand
It his throat. The left, torn from the
sling, Topped grotesquely In front OF
him. He heard the click Of the fangs
that met in 1t, and felt no pain. He
was swooning.
Suddenly he heard the "snap-snap"
Of a revolver. A leaping body seemed
to stop short In the air, and tumbled
on him, knocking him on his face.
Dimly he heard the discharge OF the
weapon again. And then, out OF e
semi-stupor, Molly's face, and her
tears upon his cheeks.

the floor Of the stable, ~stanching the
blood from his wounds with q strip
torn from her p%etticoat. Upon the
floor lay three Of the dogs, dead. Two
more were writing and moaning in q
distant corner. Wilton looked up.
Molly bowed her face upon his and
broke into hysterical weeping. 1t was
the first sign Of weakness be had ever
seen In her. He held her in his right
arm. He saw that his blood had
stained her hands, her clothing.

She wept in utter hOpelessness. ut

She seemed to have completely
broken down. She crOuched beside
him, her whole body shaken by her
sObs. And in his apathy it seemed to
him good to lie there, with Molly OF
his side, till he grew stronger, Or

His words seemed to %galvanize her
back to courage. She got up. Her
face grew suddenly composed. With
streaming eyes she b~andaged up his
wounds. She ~imprOvised another sling,
TO hold his arm.
II shall walk into Clayton" she said.

With his powerful build he could
have delivered a blow that would have
crushed Wilton's skull. But before the
blow fell Andersen had raised his pan
and brought 1t down edgewise upon
the sergeant's head, cutting the scalp
to the bone and drenching the man
