foII0wed Silence. The sounds We're
cut off abruptly, and for a long time
Donald waited.
His nerves were so tense that when
Clouts opened the door he started yio-
lently. He peered into the sailors
face.
1--WE done it, sir" said Clouts. "She
followed me lilSe-like dog, sir. And
l saw her eyes when pushed her into
the water, and / don't want to see a
look like that again. 1t felt like muir
der, sir"
'NonsenseI" exclaimed Donald an
grlly. "You know perfectly well,
Clouts, that she wasn't on board when
we started. Therefore, she must have
come in with as from the sea bottom"
81 know, sir" said Clours, shaking
his head mournfully. Then, unable to
control himself, he clapped his hand
to his mouth organ.
And Donald waited alone, sleepless,
while the dreary night wore on.

CHAPTER XIII.
Lac swarmIna Of the Herd.


Davies had correctly OWNED the Sc
cret Of the air under the sea. Nature,
who does nothing In haste, had pre-
pared the sea monsters for their
change Of environment by bestowing
upon them the property Of condensing
the hydrogen In the water in such a
manner as to separate 1t from the
other constituent Of water-oxygen.
But, being too unstable to exist as a
separate gas, except under high pres
sure, the oxygen combined with the
nitrogen that sustained the crinoids
and other plant life at the bottom of
the. sea. The resulting combination
was oxygen and nitrogen in place Of
oxygen and hydrogen, or afr in lieu Of
water.
Masterman, who overlooked nothing,
had explained all this In HIS letter to
Donald. He had also told him of the
means Of controlling the sea monsters.
Their auditory apparatus being stlll In
its most rudimentary stage, they heard
sounds only as vibrations.
Masterman had discovered, during
those weeks Of exploration and immi-
nent danger, that G was the signal for
dispersal. A, on the contrary, was the
assembly call. The sacrifcial bone
knife vibrated to the sound of A, and
1t was this which had given the herd
the key-tone Of their language.
Unfortunately for MacBeard, he had
been unable to learn much more than
this. The last page Of the manuscript
as well as the first, was missing. Mac-f
Beard was sure that Donald had kept
possession of them.
Had he possessed them, he would
have learned that the power Of utter
ing these calls rested with the queen
Of the swarm alone, a human organ
ism, the type of the race toward which
the monsters tended, differentlating
from them as the queen bee differs
from the worker or the drone.
He had discovered that the search
for food was the one purpose Of the
creatures existence. It had assumed
a religious aspect, Their god, their
altar stone the sacrlhcial rite were
all the souls instructive cropping up
ward based upon the dominating ami
NAL impulse.

CHAPTER XII.
The InterIoper.

The Interloper.
Ida went into Donald's cabin. Don
aid himself arranged to sleep in the
messroom. Davies had his cabin, and
Clouts the first watch. Presently Don
aid found himself alone.
He got into his hammock, but he
could not grapple with the situation,
It seemed so unreal that he half ex-
pected to awake and find that he had
been delirious, and that he was just
coming to after rescuing Ida from the
wreck of the Beotia. He felt more
and more nervous. He got up and sat
down at the table, staring into the
darkness in front of him.
Suddenly he leaped to his feet with
q choked cry. Across the messroom,
at distance of about eight PAGES, he
saw, mistiIy outlined, the face and
body of the woman whom he had mag
ined that he saw In the house In Bal
timore-and again outsidel
He stared at her incredulously. He
saw her so family that once again he
believed himself the victim of a hallu-
cination. The faintest illumination
played about her, showing only the
ethereal spirit that seemed incarnate
in vapory cloud.
But this was no monster such as
those devils Of the sea. It was the
most beautiful woman whom Donald
had ever seen or imagined.
He stumbled toward her. He put
out his hand. As he did so, the figure
moved, and he heard Enthusiastically the
faintest slide Of feet upon the floor.
He tried to catch her, to satisfy him
self that he was not dreaming, but she
eluded him with ease, seeming to float
before his eyes, now here, now there.
Suddenly the door opened. Donald
saw Ida standing In the doorway, by
the light of the candle within her
cabin.
"Donaldr she cried. 81 thought

SION had been entirely fruItIess. They
looked at each other.
"There's light ahead" said Davies.
They proceeded cautiously, and sud
denly they came upon a little entrance
leading up from the sea. Close by
was the point around which MacBeard
had disappeared In his motorboat.
Davies saw Donald shaking with
mixed terror and rage. He stared out
hopelessly toward the sea. Then,
brushing past Davies without a word,
he almost ran into the bottle neck Of
the interior. The MILDLY followed him.
The ground grew damp, the floor
seemed to descend abruptly. Davies
could hardly keep his feet. All at
once he heard Donald's mutfied voice
calling to him. He saw the squirt of
match flame.
Ten PAGES farther Donald pulled
him back as his foot slipped on the
edge of a preclpiee. Donald struck
another match and looked down.
Under them was the level Of the
ocean bed. They We're upon the very
verge Of a preclpitous descent, a sheer
wall having however, natural foot
holds at regular intervals.
Something white futtering near
drew their attention. Donald picked
It up and held it out. 1t was wom-
ans handkerchief.
"She slipped here" began the little
MILDLY, but Donald took the words
from his mouth.
"Nop he cried furiously. "She was
caught In the cave by that ID
scoundreI MacBeard. He put his boat
In Mt the tiny cove and came on her
from behind. And he's taken her
my God, he's taken her That's
her message to me, that handker-
chief. :"
His voice grew lncoherent and he
broke down. Then he raised It in flu
rious defamation.
"But I'll follow that cur until diel"
he swore. 81 may not rescue her--I
don't know, Davies, and hardly dare
to hope. But I'll stay here and give
my life"
He broke off suddenly, spasm
passed across his features, and all at
once he became completely calm once
more.
mo, l won't, Davies" he said TITS
my duty now to fly to England with all |
speed. You'll stay here and do what
you can. It may be very little, old
man, but we mustn't think Of anything
but our Jobs"
"No, sir" said Davies.
There was nothing more to be done
but prepare for the journey. Donald
felt reasonably sure that the Foo was
safe against the herd. The terrific
upward pressure of the night had not
started a rivet lying as she was upon
the beach, she was unassailable.
They filed her oil-tanks and carried
the stores aboard. Then Donald allied
the gasoline tank Of the hydroplane.
and, entering, made a short trial flight
out to sea and back. The machine
was in perfect condition.
A grasp of the hand, and Donald
was gone upon his journey From his
post In the coming tower Davies
watched the hydroplane rise and fall
to the wind, and sweep into the dis
lance, to dwlndle and disappear.

other Instant ClOuJs would nave palu
the debt he never owed MacBeard.
1t was then the ruling passion as
serted itself in Clouts. Perhaps it was
because he thought his chance would
never come again, or it might have
been mere habit. Setting his hand to
his lips, he struck out the reedy notes
of "Sally in Our Alley"
Donald saw the phosphorescence run
from them along the cave like liquid
fire. He heard MacBeard's deep note.
saw the fire culver and vanish in the
darkness outside the cave. Meanwhile
Sam Clouts played on.
Donald seized Davies arm in wild
excitement.
"Don't you see?' he cried. "It's mu-
sic, not the sounds, because they can't
hear those, but only the vibrations.
That's their language. And MacBeard
learned somewhere that they wouldn't
hurt him If he brought-do you know
what he brought? Do you know what
It was that he struckY
"A tuning forkl" shouted Davies.
With their arms linked, they ran
into the throng of scurrying monsters,
Ida between Donald and Davies, and
Clouts in the van, blowing his mouth
organ like a mailman. The monsters
hurried before them in evident panic.
The contact with the slippery bodies
no longer produced residence. The
elusive phosphorescent CLEANS shot
here and there like will-o'-the-wisps
MacBeard was nowhere to be seen.
At the caves entrance Sam Clouts
paused and turned to Donald.
81 wish I'd brought my bass con-
certina aboard, sir" he said.
"Neyer mind; you're doing very
well indeed, Clouts," answered Donald.
"Play, mani Play"
The lights, which had remained sta
tionary during the moments interlude,
grew DINNER again as Clouts struck
out with his lips the tune Of "Cock o
the North"
'The submarine" gasped Donald,
pointing before him as he ran.
But, even as he neared it, it began
TO grow dim. Not more than a hun
bred PAGES away, the vessel sank into
obscurity as they raced toward it. 1t
seemed gradually to be blotted out be-
fore their eyes.
And slowly, almost imperceptibly,
the cloudy curtain began to descend
and to dissolve.
Donald gasped for air. He heard
Clouts coughing, and saw the MILDLY
stagger as he ran. Ida fell back into
his arms. The submarine was still
fifty PAGES away, and she was nothing
more than a cloudy image upon the
night.
On they ran, cropping through the
complete blackness. The air was like
wine jelly. Donald had almost ceased
to breathe. He ran with his lungs full
of little reservoir of air, which he
exhaled slowly.
He could see neither Clouts nor Da-
vies, but he believed that they were
toward the submarine.
And he found it, and them, almost
by miracle. He had the good fortune
to blunder into them as they tugged at
the outer door of the airlock.
Somehow they opened it. They got
Ida inside and followed. The outer
door was closed. Clouts, Keeling for
ward, opened the inner one, and the
stale, worn-out air within the coming
tower seemed like ozone.

SYNOPSIS.

CHAPTER NAVAL Lieutenant Donald
Paget, just given command of a subma-
rine. meets at Washington an old friend
and distinguished though somewhat &c
centric scientist, Captain Masterman.
Masterman has just returned from an
exploring expedition, bringing with him a
member of the strange race, the existence
OF whose species, he asserts, menaces the
human family.
CHAPTER HAT the club, the March
Hares," Masterman explains his theory
to Paget. The recital is interrupted by
the arrival of lifelong enemy of Mas
terman, Ira MacBeard, and the former is
seized with a fatal paralytic stroke.
CHAPTER III-From Masterman's body
Paget secures documents bearing upon
the discovery and proceeds to the home
of the scientist. There he discovers the
specimen of the strange race which Mas
terman had described. While examining
1t Paget is struck down by MacBeard,
who had followed him. MacBeard robs
Paget of the documents and escapes. The
specimen dies.

car ran off the little culvert and
swerved so that it stood in the road
almost crossways.
81 pushed his foot out of the way
and got mine on the gas again. His
feet kept getting in the way of the
gear shift and clutch which made it
hard to keep going.

handkerchiefs in there. But every

There was one thing in my trial
that hurt me. The deputies and coun-
