Police Court Chronicles
The patience of Frank Jones was re
warded through perseverance. He came
here homeless and with no prospects, and
in a few hours was provided with a sub
stantial headquarters for the next six
months as the city's guest. He saw an
opportunity and seized it In the form of
a long ladder. It was lying on the side
walk apparently neglected, but Jones put
It over his shoulder and carried it along
Kensington avenue. He met an old man
who was carrying a sign and a mutual
sympathy, inspired by somewhat similar
burdens perhaps, caused them to atop for
a chat on the sidewalk.
Unfortunately, the ladder of Jones and
the sign of his chance acquaintance ex
tended over the sidewalk and jnto tha
street, and unconsciously the two old
men were blocklnr traffic in both direc
tions. They were Indifferent to the remarks of
pasiereby, who were compelled to "duck"
under the obstacles or make a flank move
ment to the street. Finally Eddie Agnew,
a City Hall detective, happened along.
He told the men that their conversation
was Indirectly interfering with the traffic;
laws. The man with the elgr retreated
fiulekly. knocking off a few Hats in his
haste, but Jonea wanted to argue the
matter. Agnew took him to the Front
and Master streets station, and he carried
the ladder Trtth him.
The prisoner gave the best of reasons
for having the ladder.

RICH AND POOR ALIKE
CAUGHT IN RIVER NET
Yacht of Joseph Widener
Among 77 Instnnces of Viola
tions of Navigation Laws.
Millionaires and poor persons allko felt
the stern hand of the federal laws when
17 motorboat nnd launch partlos were
overhauled by government agents In a
fast launch nnd fined for violations of
tho river navigation laws. Among those
whe were penalized for lack of life pre
servers was Joseph Wldencr. Ills launch,
the Josephine, was overtaken on tho
upper Delaware Itlvcr yesterday.
Mr. Widener was not on board, but the
men In charge will be fined for not hav
ing n copy of tho pilot's rules and for
carrying an Insufficient number of life
preservers. The maximum fine Is 100.
Lewis It. Carrlf, a member of the New
Jersey Legislature, also was fined, as
was the Du I'ont Powder Company, be
cause of Its motorboat which runs from
Carney's Point to Wilmington. Seven
.other large Philadelphia concerns that
had boats on the river were confronted
and will be lined.

' The search for violators of the statutes
is being conducted by Surveyor Kurtz,
Deputy Surveyor Burns and Chief In
spector Colonel Ross, with several squads
of men. They patrol tho streams in the

regulations and that In tho future tines
will not be so light as In the past.
Night inspections have been in
augurated, and the Government's boats

"I see now that you could not bo happy

Dut before she could go on a sudden
turn In tho road brought them Into the
midst of a llttlo hamlet.
llcfore thorn stood Clayton's car sur
rounded by the partv he hod brought
from tho cottage.
CHAPTER XXVIII.
CONCLUSION.
At the sight of Jane Porter, cries of re
lief and delight broke from every lip.
nnrl no Tnrmn's car stODPed beside the
othor. Professor Torter caught his daugh
ter In his arms.
For a moment no ono noticed Tnrzan,
sitting silently In his seat.
Claj ton wns tho first to remember, and,
turning, held out his hand.
"How can we over thank you7" he ex
claimed. "You have saved us nil.
"You called me by name at tho cot
tage, but I do not seem to recall yours,
though there Is something very familiar
about you.
"It is as though I had known you well
under very different conditions n long
time ago."
Tnrzan smiled ns ho took the proffered
hand.
"You nro tiulte right. Monsieur Clay
ton," he said in French. "You will par
don mo If I do not speak to you In Eng
lish. I am just learning it, and whilo t
understand It fairly well, I speak It very
poorly."
"IJut who are you?" Insisted Clayton
speaking In French this time himself.
"Tnrzan of the Apes,"
Clayton started back In surprise.
"Cy Jove!" he exclaimed. "It Is true."
And Professor Porter and Mr. Philander
pressed forward to add their thanks to
Clayton's, nnd to voice their surprise and
pleasure at seeing their Jungle friend bo
far from his savage home.
The party now entered tho modest llttlo
hostelry, where Clayton soon made ar
rangements for their entertainment.
They were sitting In tho little, stufty
parlor when the distant chugging of nn
approaching automobllo caught their at
tention. Mr. Philander, who was sitting near the
window, looked out ns the machine drew
in sight, finally stopping besldo tho other
cars. ,
"Bless met" said Mr. Philander, a shade
of annoyance In his tone. "It is Mr.
Canler. I had hoped, er I had thought
or er how very happy we should be that
he was not caught in the lire," he ended
lamely. . .
"Tut tut! Mr. Philander," said Pro
fessor Torter. "Tut tut! I have often
admonished my pupils to count 10 before
speaking. Were I you, Mr. Philander, 1
should count at least a thousand, and then
maintain a discreet silence."
"Bless me, yes!" acquiesced Mr. Phil
ander. "But who is tho clerical-appearing
gentleman with him?"
Jane Porter blnnched.
Clayton moved uneasily In his chair.
Professor Porter removed his spectacles
nervously, and breathed upon them, but
replaced them on hlB nose without wiping.
The ubiquitous Esmeralda grunted.
Only Tnrzan did not comprehend.
Presently Robert Canler burst Into the
room.
"Thank God!" ho cried. "I feared the
worst, until I saw your car, Clayton. I
was cut off on the south road and had to
go away back to town, nnd then strike
cast to this road. I thought we'd never
reach the cottage."
No one seemed to enthuse much, lar
zan eyed Robert Canler as Sabor eyes her
Jntie Porter glanced at him and coughed
nervously. . ,,
"Mr. Canler," she said, "this Is Mon
sieur Tarzan, an old friend."
Canler turned and extended his hand.
Tarzan rose and bowed us only D'Arnot
could have taught a gentleman to do It,
but he did not seem to see Cnnler's hand.
Nor did Canler appear to notice the
oversight.
"This is the Rev. Mr. Tousley, Jane,
said Canler, turning to the clerical party
behind him. "Mr. Tousley, Miss Porter.
The Rev. Mr. Tousley bowed and smiled.
Canler Introduced him to the others.
"Wo can have the ceremony at once,
Jane," said Canler. "Then you and I can
catch the midnight train in town."
Tarzan understood the plan Instantly.
He glanced out of half-closed ees at
Jane Porter, but he did not move.
The girl hesitated. The room was tenso
with the silence of taut nerves.
All eyes turned toward Jane Porter,
awaiting her reply.
"Can't we wait a few days?" she asked.
"I am all unstrung. I have been through
so much today."
Canler felt the hostility that emanated
from each member of the party. It mode
htm angry. t . . . . M
"We have waited as long" oa I Intend
to wait." ho said roughly. "You have
promised to marry me. I shall be played
with no longer. I have the license and
here Is the preacher. Come, Mr. Tousieyj
come, Jane, There ar witnesses a
plenty more than enough," he added
with a disagreeable Inflection, and tak
ing Jane Porter by the arm, he started
to lead her toward the waiting minister.
But scarcely had he taken a single step
ere a heavy hand closed upon his arm
with a grip of steel.
Another hand shot to his throat, and
in a moment he was being ahaken high
above the floor, aa a. cat might shake
a mouse. ...... .
Jane Porter turned In horrified surprise
toward Tarzan.
And, as she looked Jnto his face, she
saw the crimson band upon, hl fore
head that she had seen that other day
in far distant Africa, when Tarzan of the
Apes had closed In mortal Gombat with
the great anthropoid Terko.
Slie knew that murder lay In that,
savage heart, and with a little ery or
horror she sprang forward to plead with
the ape-man. But her fears were more
for Tarzan than for Canler- She realized
the stern retribution whteh JusMee metes
to the murderer.
Before she could reach them, however,
Clayton had Jumped to Tarzan's side and
attempted to drag Canler from his grasp.
With a single sweep of one mighty
arm the Englishman was hurled areee
the room, and then Jane Porter laid a
Arm white hand upon Tartan's, wrist,
and looked tu Into his eyes.
"Far tw sake." she said.
.The grasp upon Canter's throat relaxed.
rjarsaa looked down Into the beautiful
face) beor hlrn N
"Do. you wisn this to Jive!" he asked
In surpftM.
"I do not wish hlca to die at your hands,
my friend." she replied- "I do not wish
you to become i murderer"
Tarssn removed hi band from Clatter's
throat.
"Do you rsteaao tier front her 9Wi r"

"Will you go away and never molest
her further?"
AKflln the man nodded his head, ills
faco distorted by fenr of tho death that
had bcn so close.
Tarzan released him, and Canler ttag
gered toward the door. In another mo
ment ho was gone, nnd the terror-stricken
preacher with hint
Tnrznh turned toward Jane Porter.
"May I speak with you for a moment,
alono?" he asked.
The girl nodded and started toward the
door leading to the narrow vernnda of the
little hotel. She passed out to await Tar
zan and so did not hear tho conversation
which followed.
"Walt," cried Professor Porter, ns Tar
znn was about to follow.
Tho professor hod been stricken dumb
with surprlto by tho rapid developments
of tho last tevt minutes.
"Ilcforo we go further, sir, I should llko
an explanation of tho events which havo
Just transpired.
"By what right, sir, did you Interfere
between my daughter and Mr. Canler?
"I had promised him her hand. Rlr. nnd
retrnrdleM of our personal likes or dls
llkrs, sir, that promise must be kept."
"I Interfered, Professor Porter," replied
Tanmn, "because your daughter does not
lovo Mr. Cantor sho docs not wish to
mnrry him. That Is enough for mo to
know."
"You do not know what you have done,"
nltl Professor Portor. "Now ho will
doubtless refuse to murry her."
"Ho most certainly will," Bald Tarzan,
cinpuaucaiiy.
"And further," added Tarzan, "you
need not fear that your pride will suffer.
Professor Porter, for you will bo able to
pay the Canler person what you owo him
the moment you reach home."
"Tut-tut. sir!" exclaimed Professor
rortcr. "What do you mean, sir?"
lour trcasuro has been found," said
Tarzan.
''Wh.ntwh0t la ,lmt yu Qr saying?"
cried the professor. "You aro mad, man.
It cannot be."
"It Is, though, it wns I who stolo It.
not knowing either Its value or to whom
It belonged. I saw tho sailors bury It,
and, ape-like, I had to dig It up and bury
It again eisewhero ,
"When d'Arnot told me what it was and
what It meant to you I returned to the
Junglo and recovered it. It hnd caused
so much crime nnd suffering nnd sorrow
that D Arnot thought It best not to at
tempt to brlnr; tho trcasuro Itself on
r!P?? ? !itcn my lntcnon, so I have
brought a letter of credit Instcnd.
Hero it Is, Professor Porter," nnd Tar
zan drew an envclopo from his pocket
nnd handed It to tho nstonlshed professor,
two hundred nnd forty-ono thousan.l
uolI,i rs.
"Tho trcasuro was most carefully op
praised by experts, but lest there should
bo nny question in your mind, D'Arnot
himself bought It nnd is holding It for
ou should you prefer the ttcusuro to
tho credit,"
"To tho nlrcady great burden of the
obligations wo owo you. sir," said Profes
sor Porter, with trembling voice, "Is now
added this greatest of all services. You
havo given mo tho means to save my
honor."
Clayton, who hnd left the room a mo
ment after Canler, now returned.
"Pardon me," ho said. "I think we had
better try to reach town before dark and
tako tho first train out of this forest. A
natlvo Just rode by from the north, who
repot ts Hint the flro is moving slowly in
this direction."
ThU announcement broko up further
conversation, and tho entire party went
out to tho watting machines.
Clnyton, with Jane Porter, the profes
sor nnd Esmeralda, occupied Clayton'B
car, while Tarzan took Mr. Philander In
with him.
"Bless mo!" exclaimed Mr. Philander,
as the car moved off after Clayton's ma
chine. "Who would ever havo thought it
possible? The last timo I anw you you
were a veritablo wild man, skipping about
among the branches of a tropical Afri
can forest, nnd now you nre driving mo
along a Wisconsin road in a French auto
mobile. Bless mo! But It is most re
markablo!" "Yes." assented Tarzan, and then, nftcr
n pause: "Mr. Philander, do you rtcalt
any of tho details of tho finding nnd
burying of threo skeletons found In my
cabin bcBlde that African Junglo?"
"Very distinctly, sir, very distinctly,"
replied Mr. Philander.
"Was there anything peculiar about any
of thoso skeletons?"
Mr. Philander eyed Tarzan narrowly.
"Why do you ask?"
"It means a great deal to me to know,"
replied Tarzan. "Your answer may clear
up a mystery. It can do no worse, at
any rate, than to leave It still a myBtery.
"I have been entertaining a theory con
cerning thoso skeletons fpr the last two
months, and I want you to answer my
question to the best of your knowledge
were the- threo skeletons you burled all
human skeletons?"
"No," said Mr. Philander, "the smallest
one, the ono found In the crib, was the
skeleton of an anthropoid ape."
"Thank you," said Tarzan.
In the car ahead, Jane Porter was think
ing fast and furiously. Bho had felt tho
purpose for which Tarzan had asked n
few words with her, and she know that
she must be prepared to give him an an
swer in the very near future.
He was not the sort of person one
could put off, and somehow thnt very
thought made her wonder if she did not
really fear him.
And could she lovo where she feared?
She realized the spell that had been
upon her In the depths of that far-off
Jungle, but there was no spell of en
chantment now In prosaic Wisconsin.
Nor did tne immaculate young French
man appeal to the primal woman In her
as had the stalwart forest god.
Did she love him? She did not know
now.
She glanced at Clayton out of tho
corner of her eye. Was not here a man
trained In the same school of environ

ns she had been taught to consider as
the prime essentials to congenial asaocia-
Dld not her beat Judgment point to this
young English nobleman, whose love she
knew to be of the sort a civilized wmnn
should cmve. ns the logical mate for
sueh ns herself?
Could she lovo Clnyton? Sho could see
no reason why she could not Jane
Porter was not coldly calculating by
nature, but trnlnlng, environment nnd
heredity had nil combined to teach her
to reason even In matters of the heart.
That sho had been carried off her feot
by the strength of tho young giant when
his great arms were about her In tho
distant African forest, nnd ngnln today,
In the Wisconsin woods, seemed to her
only attributable to a temporary mental
reversion to type on her part to tha
psychological appeal of the primeval mnlt
to the primeval woman In her nature.
If he should never touch her again, sho
reasoned, the would never feel attracted
toward him. Sho hnd not loved hltn, then.
It had been nothing more than a passing
hallucination, superinduced by excitement
and by personal contact.
Excitement would not ntwnys mark
their future relations should she marry
him, and tho power of personal contact
eventually would be dulled by familiarity.
Agnln sho glanced at Clayton. He was
very handsome nnd ovcry Inch a gentle
man. Sho should be very proud of such a
husband.
And then ho spoke n minute sooner or a
mlnuto later might have made alt tho
dlffcrenco In the world to three lives but
chance stepped In and pointed out to
Clnyton the psychological moment.
"You nro freo now, Jane," ho said,
"Won't you say yes I will dovoto my llfo
to making you very happy."
"Yes," sho whispered.
That ovcnlng in tho llttlo waiting room
nt tho station Tnrzan caught Jano Porter
nlono for a moment.
"You Aro freo now, Jane," ho said, "and
I havo come ncross the ages out of tho
dim and distant past from tho lnlr of
tho primeval man to claim you for your
sako I have bocome n. civilized man for
your sako I have crossed oceans nnd con
tinentsfor your sako I will bo whatever
you will mo to be. I can make you
happy, Jane, In tho llfo you know and
lovo best. Will you marry me7"
For tho first time Bho realized the
depths of the man's love all thnt ho
hnd accomplished In so short n time
solely for lovo of her. Turning her head
sho burled her faco In her arms.
What had bIio done? Because sho had
beon afraid she might succumb to tho
pleas of this giant, sho had burned her
bridges behind her In her groundless np
prohcnslon that she might make n ter
rlblo mistake sho had made n worse
one.
And then sho told him nil-told him tho
truth word by word,"wlthout nttemptlng
to shield herself or condone her error.
"What can wo do?" ho nsked. "You
havo ndmlttcd that you lovo mo. You
know that I love you; but I do not know
tho ethics of society by which you aro
governed. I shall leavo the decision to
ypu, for you know best what will bo
for your eventual welfare."
"I cannot tell him, Tnrzan," sho said.
"He, too, loves me, and ho Is n good
man. I could never face you nor any
other honest person If I repudiated my
promise to Mr. Clayton.
"I shall havo to keep It and you must
help mo bear tho burden, though wo may
not seo each other again nftcr to
night." Tho others wcro entering the room now
nnd Tarzan turned toward the llttlo win
dow. But he saw nothing without within he
saw a patch of greensward surrounded by
a matted mass of gorgeous tropical plants
and flowers, nnd, nbove, the waving
foliage of mighty trees, and, over all, I
the bluo of nn equatorial sky.
In the centre of tho greensward a
young woman sat upon a llttlo mound of
earth, nnd besldo her sat a young giant.
They ato pleasant fruit and looked Into
each other's oyes nnd smiled. Thoy were
very happy nnd they wcro all alone.
Ills thoughts nero broken In upon by
tho station agent who entered, asking If
there was a gentleman by tho name of
Tarzan In tho party.
"I am Monsieur Tnrzan," sold the ape
man. "Here Is a message for you, for
warded from Baltimore; It Is a cablegram
from Paris,"
Tarzan took the cnevolpe and tore It
open. The message was from D'Arnot.
It read:
"Flngor prints prove you Groystoke,
Congratulations. D'ARNOT."
As Tarzan finished reading Clayton en
tered and came toward him with extend
ed hand.
Hore was tho man who h.id Tarzan's
title, and Tarzan's estates, and was going
to marry the woman whom Tnrzan loved
the womnn who loved Tnrzan. A slng'o
word from Tarzan would make a great
dlffcrenco In this man's life.
It would take away his title and his
lands and his castles, and It would take
them away from Jano Porter also.
"I say. old man," cried Clayton. "I
haven't had a chance to thank you for
nil you've done for us. It seems as
though you had your hands full saving
our lives In Africa and here.
"I'm awfully glad you came on here.
Wo must get better acquainted. I often
thought about you, you know, and tho re
