IIRGINIA finds herself in the dungeon with the hungry lion and manages to get in an adjoining room and hold the door against the beast. Winthrop goes in search of the girl, comes to the mine just as Virginia is about exhausted, and he rescues her. Before leaving on the search, Winthrop has sent Red Fawn to the Inn to warn his men, but Fouchard has her thrown out. The officers, hearing the commotion, rescue her. Hirtzman meanwhile calls his gang together and gives new instructions to secure the precious metal. He and Steele, his lieutenant, leave for the hidden mine. Virginia and Winthrop find Kelly and start out, but hear Hirtzman coming. Virginia sees a paper protruding from a ring Kelly has. It is half of the letter describing the hiding-place of the metal. While Kelly holds the spies oflF, Virginia and Winthrop dive into the lake and seek the outer air. The crooks dynamite the water but are too late to harm the two.

She declares that the government shall be supplied if she loses her life in the attempt. Two pieces of the letter are put together and full directions for finding the buried platinum are found.

THIS interesting number of the Screen Magazme opens with a warning to slackers. The examining physician is usually a good judge of human nature, as most general practitioners are, and can spot a faked disability with little difficulty. The Screen Magazine caught the members of the Bamum & Bailey circus performing for charity before the inmates of Bellevue Hospital in New York, and it furnished a very interesting chapter. It also persuaded Henry Disston & Sons, of Philadelphia, to permit the Magazine to show its patrons how this leading saw manufacturer makes hand saws in its manufactory at Philadelphia. Another interesting chapter is that contributed by the Chippewa Indians of Northern Minnesota. These Indians subsist principally upon rice, and it is interesting to note the manner in which they harvest and cure and distribute their winter food supply.
