THE SPOKANE WOMAN
THE LOST WORLD

said 1. “They live in the caves on the
other side of the central lake.”
“Our young friend here knows where
they live, 1 gather that it is some dis
tance.”
“A good twenty miles,” said I.
Summerlee gave a groan,
“I, for one, could never get there.
Surely I hear those brutes still howl
ing upon our track.
As he spoke, from the dark recesses
of the woods we heard far away the
jibbering cry of the ape-men. The In
dians once more set up a feeble wail
of fear,
“We must move, and move quick!”
said Lord John. “You help Summer
lee, young fellah. These Indians will
carry stores, Now, then, come along
before they can see us.”
In less than half-an-hour we had
reached our brushwood retreat and
concealed ourselves. All day we heard
the excited calling of the ape-men in
the direction of our old camp, but
none of them came our way, and the
tired fugitives, red and white, had a
long, deep sleep. 1 was dozing myself
in the evening when someone plucked
my sleeve, and I found Challenger
kneeling beside me,
“You keep a diary of these events,
and you expect eventually to publish
it, Mr. Malone,” said he, with sol
emnity,
“l am only here as a DPress re
porter,” I answered,
“Exactly. You may have heard some
rather fatuous remarks of Lord John
Roxton's which seemed to imply that
there was some—some resemblance—"
“Yes, I heard them.”
“I need not say that any publicity
given to such an idea—any levity in
your narrative of what occurred—
would be exceedingly offensive to me.”
“1 will keep well within the truth.”

Cruising the Mediterranean
(Continued from Page 10.)
s 0 returned to the Hotel d’Angleterre
for dinner, still play:ng with the
thought of acquiring a shawl.
The train was to leave shortly after
an early dinner and our time was lim
ited. In the midst of the repast we
decided to return to the alluring shop.
We dashed out, and through the foot
man, who spoke English, made a bar
gain with the carriage driver to take
us to the train by way of the shop and
get us there on time. We trotted off
down the street past the Cathedral
and up the narrow streets now filled
with soft, mysterious gshadows as the
deep blue of twilight darkened into
night. The shop was brightly lighted
and the shawls were more wonderful
in lamplight. But still we did not find
just what we wanted. However, our
disappointment did not detract from
the thrill of the ride to the train. The
driver urged his horses to speed and
through the deserted crooked streets,
past the yellow light of an occasional
street lamp, we rode in a soft starlit
silence, broken only by the click of
the horses’ hoofs and the muffled jin-
gle of the buckles of the harness. 1
did not care whether we made the
train or not. 1 even hoped we would
miss it. Too soon the lights and noise
of the station brought us back with
a start to the need for hurry. Past the
guards with their big shiny leather
hats, we rushed to our train for the
evening's trip back to Cadiz.
