The flight of the four fugitives from the Bagalla
cannibals was slow indeed. Ukundo and ’Bulala,
• swift men of the jungle, had to slacken their pace
so that Dick and Doc might .keep up with them,
for the boys had been seriously weakened by their
captivity and vile food.
They were already tired and hungry before the day
had fully dawned. Their bare feet, sore and bleed
ing, tramped painfully along dim trails. And the
naked flesh of their bodies was torn and scratched
by the cruel thorns that seemed to reach out to
seize them. , . .
—■
... Meanwhile, Tarzan. mounted on Tantor the ele
phant, directed his Wajiri warriors In a frantic
search for the boys. Through their alert eyes, he
scoured vast sections of the gloomy forest, and their
many feet were as his own in traveling many
trails. . , .
. . . But the searchers had not yet reached that
territory through which the Bagalla pursued the
hapless Tarzan Twins. These fleet cannibals suf
fered no handicaps of weakness or tender flesh.
And their savage bloodlust was fuel to their power
ful muscles.

Storm Detector Invented.
A device for detectnig the approach
of stems at sea is one of the inven
tions demonstrated before the Confer
ence of Acoustics at Moscow. Russia.
Victor Schulelkin, its inventor, claims
that the device enables the detection
of approaching storms long before they
break. The invention detects the so
called “voice of the sea,” the inaudible
low-frequency sound waves produced
by the action of the wind upon the
sea.
Minister at 80.
