Then Olive, staking all on Barke's absorption, strolled out from shelter, grinned brazenly into the eyes of the startled sentry, entered that side of the prison house where the natives grouped.

Her own salvation, this man's life, depended on her caution. _ "iiui,kwn man opened his mouth and spoke aloud in the native tongue --direet to Martin. _ A Olive's expression was that of for, mal politeness. But, though he had sealed to address the white man, he had not done so. What he had said was this: 7 "Men of the village of Tanapai. listen here unto me. The high lady Pdmtree shall be saved. I speak the war." Olive was continuing in the tones of courtesy, looking at Martin but making direct to the villagers. In I untence he appealed to their cupid- ihr, to their fear of the Japanese.

But he did not pause. Two of the sailors, tuakiug atontr the beach, sprung upon him. Others joined in. A struggle, and he was held. Ponape Burke had remained at his post, an amused spectator. Now, however, when the girl on the ground did not stir after her talt, he ran toward her. "Palm," he called; "Palmie. are y'hurt Another hundred feet and he stop- ped. Bewilderment turned into rage. For lying there in the hat, veil and raincoat was no Palmyra Tree. It was a big, roast Pitt. Ponape Burke turned I savage face from this - pork to the man who had tricked him-his pris- oner. Then an onth and a bush struggled for simultaneous expmo sion. For there, bloody, desperate, stood the brown man Olive. " The white man's features were contorted. "Where is she?" he de- mended. Olive clamped his lips shut. It had been Burke's sudden descent. upon the tour houses which precipi- tated castastrophe. The villagers, grown overeonfident, had thought he would no: lack there 'sgaies. Olives, having seen the messenger from the Pigeon of Noah, had assumed erYotV eously that the uhooner was ready; that Ponape. seizing the girl now, could sail at once. In desperation the brown man had snatched up the hat, veil and raincoat; thrown these about the Pitt-cooked to send to the feast down the coast. Running toward the outer end of the islet he had hoped to draw " Burke and the crew, so the villagers could rush Palmyra shoreward to safety. He would hold the pursuit by carrying the Pitt into the sea; perhaps himself escape if Ponape feared the sound of firing.
