CHAPTER XVII. Continued.
And whnt a difference there was
between this Ileot and those to which
the men aboard wero accustomed! On
those battleshlim of the Boas wero
magnificent forecH of mun trained to
light, which were numbered by thou
Bauds; but here each crow consisted
of a bare half-dozen. In tho hulls ot
tlioso vessels of the sea Btrovo a
small army, watching over nnd
driving hugo engines, nnd Bupplylng
them with Bteam; hero were only one
mutt and an assistant standing bo
foro lovers, BWltchoB and buttons,
which did their work Instantaneously
nnd with no noise. In those destroy
ers ot tho waters throbbed mighty
engines considered the modern tri
umph ot Bjieod; here wus a ciuft that
by a llnger'B inessuro could almost
run nbreust the sun. Those ships
bristled with mighty guns'; hero were
no frowning muzzles or unwieldy tur
rets. Science was bringing an end to
brute force, and the last buttle ugulnst
barbarism wiih nt hand,
For tho first time Blnco Its birth
the grcut plant was silent and idle
and the menwho hud created It and
by ltn means built this new Meet of the
air, wero at rest. They had done all
tho'y could, and now gathered silently
round the radlopluneii, which stood In
orderly arrny with portllho doors
yawning wide to receive their crews.
"Fighting" Ilevlns stood by hlu Hag
craft, the Norma, and looked nt tho
force under hlu command. Captains
who had handled hundreds of men
nnd driven their grent lloatlng crafts
of Hteel, and engineers who hud
learned new callings wnlted attentive
ly for his last Instructions.
Tho hattlescnrred veteran ad
dressed thorn In a voice that needed
no high pitch to be audible to all
hid hearers. "Gentlemen," ho said. "I
have nothing more to say to you. You
aro going out to light what will prob
nbly be the last great battle In his
tory. You are active participants In
tho. llual chaptor of International wnr.
The time Is npproachlng when our pro
fession will bo usoless, and I for no
shall gladly turn to ways of peace."
Norma, who had loft tho bedside ot
tho Bleeping Inventor, Joined the of
llccrs, nnd Uevlns stopped and sa
luted her.
"With us," he continued, "Is a girl
who has laid all her talents on tho
altar of country, and Is now prepared
tt Jeopardize her life for victory. Wo
can do no Ioms. It may bo that somu
of us will not return the huzards
of war can never ho foreseen. You
have been put In a strange position,
and are even robbed of tho sailor's
right to send a Inst message to your
homos; hut thnt, too, has been tor the
country's. gooiUTo my perhonnl knowl
edge you have all passed your lives In
trying to do what was right, and have
given the boBt that was In you to the
flag, Yon will do no less now."
In tho glare of tho are lights he
took one Inst look at his comrades In
arms, and then, as l once moro at sen,
loudly ordered: "Hoard ship, all!"
He uncovered and stood aside In an
nttltiuU) of the greatest respect while
Norma passed and entered tho tlag
Bhlp bearing hor nume. With steady
precision the other olllcers suluted,
took possession of their radlophinos,
and as tho doors clanged shut behind
them n mighty cheer burst from those
outside, lleforo It had subsided the
dynamos in the strange collection
were humming and droning with un
leashed energy, and the unBhuttored
ports Btared out Into the gloom llko
eyes of tiro suddenly opuned from
sloop,
From tho Norma there Bhot up Into
the sky swiftly alternating streaks of
rod, white and blue, tho night signal
askliiK If nil was ready, From tho
other moiiBtors came (lushing answers
of acquiescence. There was an In
stant's pause, Tho llagshlp gave a
Blight upward shock uud lifted slowly
lutu the air. Immediately behind In
V ROY NORTON
tittitoly upward Bweep followed anoth
er radloplnne, nnd In quick succession,
like gigantic birds of tho night, they
took lllght In a great swinging circle
until they reached u common altitude.
The cheer below had died away, and
all was still.
Then, as If answorlng the call of a
baton swung by a god, the palpitant
air was riven by a mighty chorus from
beneath. Mounting upward there pen
etrated to them, quivering with terrific
fervor, tho cry or Invincibility voiced
In the majestic words of that death
less song of battle:
.Minn eye havo seen tho Klory of the
coming of Him Lord;
lie Is trutnplltn,' out the vintage where
his Krapps of' wrath are stored:
Ite hath loosed the futoful IlKhtnlnif of
his tpiribl swift sword;
Ills truth Ih inarching on.
Out to the wost, ovor sleeping cities
and homes, across mountain nnd plain,
chasing the long set sun, they wont
to meet the fleet of up enemy which
wus steudlly sailing to Us doom. Tho
nword of a nation's vengeance was
cleaving the night skies In Hb deliver
auco of uu overwhelming blow.
CHAPTEFl XVIII.
The Battle.
It was lu the long gray dawn of the
summer morning, nnd the wide reach
ing ocean, slato colored In the early
light, seemed asleep In Its quietude
save whore It was disturbed by mov
In fancied Bccurlty, knowing that not
He Gazed In the Direction
on Pacific waters were there onemles
capable of staying Its progress, and
Insolently careless In superb strength,
went tho Japanese lleot. The huge
Ilugshlp, the Ito, forced her way in
advance, tho apex or a great and for
midable trlungc, whose sides woro
formed by other battle ships of scarce
ly loss tonnage, graceful cruisers, and
swift-moving destroyers, while bring
ing up the far rear were tho colliers
In whose hulls wore carried fuel for
the great armada.
Here was tho Kashimn, which could
drive her 17,000 tons of steel through
tho water at It) knots speed; tho Ka
tori, hut little smaller and nlmoct as
fast; the Asuhl, the Mlkasa, the Asumu,
the Toklwa, and others which wore
dear to the heart and pride of Nippon
a gallant navy, carefully planned,
well constructed, nnd of Invincible
Blze and strength. No squadron that
bronstod the waves might cnitso It to
hesitate.
In the stillness of the morning there
came a siulduu, sharp exclamation
from the man on tho lookout, an ex
cited cull to the bridge, ami the quick
stop of uu olllcer In answer to the sum
mons. Almost Instantly he was fol
lowed by nnother, who brought with
hhn a pair of powerful binoculars,
through which he guzod In the direc
tion Indicated by the sailor. There lu
tho Immeasurable void of the upper
air, so high above that It tloated In
the brbader light, soared u covey of
gigantic objects unplctured In tho lore
of lllght. Onward It cauio until ul
most above, when It stopped nnd ma
Jostlcully hovered over thorn, and

lng prows. Stoamlng across Us bosom
seemed to be watchhiB and waiting
for some ray of broader light. Tho
pallid blue of tlioso far-floating bodies
r-ndored them nlmost Indistinguish
able, save whon now nnd then they
swung broadside to In deploying, re
sumed their speed, nnd swept round In
circles.
Puzzled and amazed, tho officer
handed the glnssos to his companion
ami watched his face attentively, as If
hoping to read from Its expression
some solution of this mysterious visi
tation from tho Immense unclouded
space above. The glasses were low
ered, and tho two men with the super
stition of ages behind them turned to
each other with pallid faces, fearing
the supernatural or the unknown.
Agnln they looked, and uaw that the
flying specks traveled with Incredlblo
rapidity, and were apparently observ
ing them, after which, us they
watched, they saw them come to tin
abrupt stop. It wus enough. What
ever they were, their presence would
be made known.
The olllcers Bprung to the nlarnis,
and in an Instant thunderous volleyu
bellowed out across tho waters, awak
ening the other vesselB. Shrill pi
pings, the stnecato blare of buglus, and
the sound of running feet told the
story of" excitement und that well
drilled crows wero unswerlng the call.
The hour was early for the perfect use
of Hag slgnuls; so from one warship
to another flashed the searchlight
warnings, and wlieless operators In
their cabins ticked frantic messages
to outlying members of the lleot to
close in for uctlon. Admirals und enp
tains, who had fought successfully In
other wars nnd counted their service
as valuable adjuncts in any engage
ment, stood upon the bridges or the
Hanks or tho great turrets nnd stared
spellbound nt this apparition which
had come upon them In the night.
Thoro it was, a silent fleet of the air,
sinister uud menacing, lowering over
them ns if waiting opportunty or bid
ing Its time lo strike.
A sudden evolution brought one of
Indicated by the Sailor.
those terrible adversaries to the outer
edge of the aerial forniatlon, and
through their glasses they saw thrown
out to the winds of the morning, whip
ping and writhing, the flag or the na
tion they had come to conquer; tho
oldest bannor lu tho world, and the
one they had been taught through
months of consideration to despise.
Stars on a Hold of blue, III emblem lor.
warriors of the clouds! And then ere
the first flag had utrnlghteued out its
heavy folds, the colors Muttered from
each birdlike craft, a challenge to bat
tlo lu which the odds were against
them.
Alort In that Meet of the air, where
all wus quiet, there was no sndden call
of excitement. For hours they hud
watched and waited for tho appear
ance ot the enemy, and when ho was
flighted far below In the murk ot the
dawn each man took his post without
words; but the martial spirit which
sends men to bnttlo burned clear and
high. The supreme test was at hand,
and the wait and preparation wero nt
an end, The Issue was lu the lap of
the gods.
The Norma had been tho Mist to de
cry the oncoming fleet, and Fighting
Uevlns with his own bund had sig
naled his followors to reduce speed.
Now lie stood at the transparent ports,
heard the sudden booming ulnrm, wit
nessed tho excitement on the decks,
and smiled with grim Joy. liy his side
stood Norma, und not oven ho, trained
to strife and accustomed from early
manhood to scenes ot enrnngo, was
more cool or determined. He looked
at hor questioning!)', wondering
whether or no ho thould road, In hor
oyes a sign of regret or weakness, and
turned rrom her with a glow of admi
ration.' "Who is going to hnndlo her?" ho
queried, glancing at tho hood.
"I am," she replied, as qulptly atj If
nnsworlug u quory of no moment.
Ho held out his hand and shook hers
warmly.
From nway In the outer distance,
whero the nnglc waB not too shnrp to
prevent Its elevation, came tho sullen
report of a gun, and n shell Mow past
nt such close range that Us BcroamliiK
enmo to them through the thickness
of their plate and the open uppor
ports, sounding Us challenge and de
fiance above the droning hum of the dy
namos. Tho girl glanced apprehensively
upward, but tho admiral continued his
calm Inspection of the .Japanese Meet.
Again from a vessel closer at hand
came a series of sharp reportB. The
rndloplnne felt a shivering Impact, and
careened slightly In answer to Us
force. The admiral was hurled
against her nicttil side, and one or the
engineers seized a rail to prevent be
ing thrown headlong against the ma
chinery.
"They're frying four-Inch shells on
us! nre they?" shouted Uevlns. "Well,
we'll put an end to thnt right now!"
Ho Hprnng to the signal box, and
Norma, reading his Intention, hurried
to her post In the hood. Ho ordered
the other craft to Increase speed nnd
traverse circles till he should notify
them which war vessels of the fleet be
neath were to be their Individual prey.
Now the small shells were rnhiy rend
lug the air around them. The sharp
clang or metal ngnlnst metal and
quick explosion told thnt hits were be
ing mude, and through the porta the
radlojilunes which suffered could be
seen to rock convulsively when struck.
The air seemed whining with death
which was clamoring for admission to
Us prey. Shot and shell swept through
space; but higher nnd higher soared
the radloplanes. while tho old war dog
studied the formation or the fleet he
low. "My God! .Seventeen Is hit! Sov
enteen Is hit!" screamed the lookout,
and the admiral and Norma stared
through a side; port.
In long,. weird, dizzy circles, llko a
wounded man striving to recover his
balance, a radioplano was dropping
slowly down toward the waters, in
effectually lighting to regain Its bal
ance. The four-Inch shells had dono
no damage; but the far outlying
cruiser had made an accidental lilt
with a heavy gun. Zigzagging hore
and there in erratic swoops the radio
plane continued to plunge. From the
waters below came the sounds of ex
ultant cheering. The enemy were gain
lug heart. They had found what they
believed to be a chance for bono anil
ah invulnerable spot in the Ameri-J
urn iu inur. iNornin siarteti back to
her levers; but the admiral called
excitedly:
"Look-, look! (mod boy, Nineteen!
(mod boy!"
Again she looked through the port,
and was transfixed with the daring at
tempt or another radloplaue. Nine
teen, with Its big white 'letters blazing
lu the light, had taken a swift down
ward shoot.
"It's Jenkins! It's Jenkins!" Norma
called In excitement, knowing that tho
little scientist was manning tho hood
of that craft,
Then before she could say more.
NInetcen's object was made plain. The
great radioplano shot to a lower alti
tude than timt of its crippled fellow,
dove here and there like a bat, caught
a simultaneous speed, and rounding
upward In a deft swoop poised Itself
firmly beneath the lower plate or Sev
enteen. For an Instant the two. locked
together and overweighted, slid slowly
downward through the air. and then
Nineteen seemed to gather itseir, came
to a stop, hesitated for a moment, and
began u steady upward movement.
As If divining Its purpose, two other
radloplanes swooped down toward the
stricken monster till their sides
touched, and then, llko a group or war
riors carrying a wounded comrade
from the field, assisted tho ascent Into
the upper vod. Focusing their lire on
the group, the Japanese made It a
target, and the screnm or shot and
shell broke Into a pandemonium until
the air around was churned us by a do
mon's wrath.
Up up they went till they were
mere specks against the dome of
the heavens, where they were beyond
range nnd In the profound silence of
solitude. The others of the fleet, led
by the Norma.' hastened to soar to
ward them; but before they could get
within speaking distance the wireless
brought to all radloplanes this mes
sage: "Seventeen was struck by a ten-inch
shell directly below her dynamos. The
Jar caused a temporary break which
cut off the current tor a short time.
Tills is nearly repaired. No damage
of consequence has been done, und
she will report for duty within two
minutes."
IJevltis nnd Norma looked at each
oilier with a great reller. "Thank Ood
for that!" the admiral said, nnd It was
echoed by his subordinate.
They turned again to the port, and
as they did so they saw the specks
above disintegrate, and In a few mo
ments Seventeen, repaired, and again
capable, was in lino of battle. The
cheering below ceased; but from the
doomed baltlo ships and cruisers a
continuous hall of Ineffectual shots
was tired, while tho admiral of the
uorlal fleet, his plans formed, wa3
calmly sending orders.
