Every day this week there has

OF the epidemic found in dairy herds
in this county, within which confines
the disease has thus far been re-

California. The situation at Needles.
where 1000 motorists are reported
stranded, has reached critical stage.
according to word received in state
offices here and by the board Of SUI
pervisors at San Bernardino.
Travelling in nearly 500 automo-
biles, the Eastern bound tourists
have found their passage across the
Colorado river blocked by the strin-
gent Arizona ruling. which prohibits
all motor travel into that state from
California.
Many OF them have been az

The order was issued after II was
reported that some 600 motorists

CHAPTER XIV.
The unheeded Warning.

On the evening of the same day
London was stirred by a sensation
which eclipsed even the interest In the
progress of the war. The evening
newspapers contained, in full, Donald's
narration Of the approaching ruin of
the world.
The second sea lord, receiving Dom
AIDS name, came to the conclusion that
matters of the most pressing moment
must have brought the unknown young
American naval officer. He rose from
his desk and shook hands with him
cordially. "Sit down, Mr.. Paget," he
said warmly. Then he noticed that
Donald was dressed in a nondescript
diving suit and that his looks were de-
cidedly wild.
Donald sat down and plunged In
stantly into the story Of the world
danger. 1t did not lose its dramatic
interest in the manner Of its telling.
you must stop the war at once"
Donald ended. "Unite all nations Of
the earth, for that is the only way to

up his hands and rayed. Coward as he
was, he could not let his last hope slip
from him like that.
He was the loneliest man In the
world, as he had always been. But he
had not known it or cared. He had
rebelled against the human race. He
was the modern Cain; he had plotted
the ruin of the world, over which he
was to rule, godllke. But that was be
fore he had set eyes upon Ida Ken
nedy.
The thought of her renewed his cour-
age. He found his motorboat upon
the shore, uninJured by the inundation,
since the point Of rock had acted as
breakwater and protected it. Within
few minutes he had filed his great
gasoline reservoir with a supply sufii-
Client for several days, and set out in
pursuit of the herd He knew that he
could easily outdistance the subma-
rlne.
Presently he came upon the mon
sters. Their first wild dash had taken
them in all directions, so that little
vapor had formed, but now they were
beginning TO congregate, and a wall Of
black cloud, rising In the distance, In
dicated their direction.
The monsters made no effort to mo-
lest him, but they would not, at first,
heed his tuning fork. Later, however,
he managed to assemble a small
bodyguard about him.
MacBeard pursued them down the
east coast of England. His boat, hid
den In the cloud, remained undetected
by the patrol vessels.
It was not until the second morning
that he guessed where the herd would
make its main rendezvous.
It was a simple deductive process,
though nobody else had thought Of It.
It was the Dogger bank, swarming
with fish, which would provide the
with food.
He believed that, once the first dash /
Of the monsters was over, they would |
obey his call again. And his first sum-
mons proved successful beyond his ex-

save the human race. 1t is a matter
of hours, perhaps. Even now these
monsters may be speeding southwark"
The second sea lord had been unable
to interpose a word by reason Of the
torrent of impassioned speech that
poured from Donald's lips. At first he
listened In amazement at what he con-
sidered an impudent hoax; then in
anger; then, after a brief glance at
Donald's face, with absolute passiyity.
81 thank you, Mr.. Paget," he said,
rising, when Donald had ended. you
have done notable work, and England
viii not forget it. And now, sir, you
must be conducted to the prime min
lister at once, that you may apprise
him of these startling events"
He touched his bell, and his secre-
tary, a dapper, alert little man, at once
