A BATTLE BOYAL
The Indian pivoted instinctively m
Leo held the spear menacingly cla.e
against the warrior’s bacl;. Immedi
ately the Inca soldiers closed in upon
I.eo ns he leaped out of their way be
hind the bewildered king's throne.
“Watch it!’’ warned Recards.
“They’re coming up behind you front
the left entrance!"
Just as John Recards finished
speaking, two very tough-looking
guardsmen ru lied up the steps to
ward him! The American’s solid
lealher woodsman shoe connected
hard upon the foremost Inca’s jaw!
Almost at once the Indian tottered
dazedly oil the steps; then a split-sec

blocking his companion's mad rush
forward! As Recards turned to the
throne where Leo was busily engaged
tossing about several very stubborn
adversaries, he was greatly annoyed
to sec that the majority of the sol

forces for the purpose of rushing tiie

windmill! Once, twice, three tines
and then almost continuously the
heavy hammer-head blows felled ovcr-i

Recards grabbed one of tile In 'inis
who had jumped to the top of the
roy-al steps; with a straining pull, lie
lifted the heavy man bodily over his
bead and then Hung the Inca mightily
into the pursuing mass of fighting
men! Then, taking full advantage of
the momentary pause in the miniature
