I 11 I I I I I I I • • I I I I I j •• I •• PREFACE •• I This booklet of walking tours was developed in connection with Howell's Sesquicentennial celebration. The year 1986 was selected • as the date marking 150 years of history because Howell's first • I election was held in 1836 at the Eagle Tavern. home of Amos • Adams and his family. The Eagle Tavern, located on the • southeast corner of West Grand River Avenue and Walnut Street • (now the site of Sutton's Hardware), was the only building in the I village at the time. For want of suitable ballot boxes, sugarbowls • and a teapot were borrowed from Mrs. Adams to be used as • depositories for votes . Thirty-three votes were cast in this first elec- • I tion . (The teapot is on permanent di splay at the Livingston County • Historical Museum located in the Railroad Depot at the foot of • North Walnut Street.) • I Howell's increasing appreciation of its history can be traced to the • Regional/Urban Design Assistance Team (R/UDAT) study of the • City of Howell in 1984. This study team included experts in the • fields of urban design. architecture. city planning. economics , • I sociology and management. Their goal was to capitalize on the existing strengths and to develop the potential assets of our com- • munity . Change With Continuity, a detailed publication reporting • I the results and recommendations of the study as well as the in- • dividuals and community groups who supported it. was produced • by the R/UDAT team . • I A major aspect of the R/UDA T recommendations was the • recognition of the unique historic character of Howell's commer- • cial buildings and surrounding neighborhoods . They recommended • that Howell identify historic sites and establish historic districts I through a profe's\ionally conducted. historic-site survey. •• As a result of that recommendation , in August of 1984 the City of • Howell and the Howell Historic Preservation Commission applied • I for a $5,000 matching grant from the Michigan Bureau of History in order to hire a professional consultant to conduct a historic site • survey. The matching $5,000 was raised from local businesses , • I organizations, residents and the City of Howell. •• After receiving the grant in October 1985. the City of Howell hired Carolyn Mann. a professional consultant. to conduct the site • I survey of Howell . The survey. completed in 1986. covered fifty- • six square miles , over 700 sites, and documented seventy- • five architecturally and/or historically significant buildings. Upon • completion of the survey. Mann submitted a detailed written com- • I ,·ii • ' • •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• ,·iii pilation of her findings to the City of Howell and the Michigan Bureau of History . That document. An Historical and Architectural Overview of Howell, Michigan. has served as a major source for the development of this walking-tour booklet. Another outgrowth of the R/UDA T study was the development of the Howell Tomorrow Board. and in panicular the establishment of the Main Street program in the spring of 1985. One of the early events in connection with this new program (designed to stimulate the economic and social revitalization of Howell's central business district) was an on-site visit in September of 1985 from the staff of the National Trust for Historic Preservation . That Washington D.C.-based group was impressed with the quality and variety of downtown Howell's nineteenth century architecture. and recommended that the City of Howell apply to the National Trust for Historic Preservation for designation as a historic district on the National Register of Historic Places. (The National Register is the federal government's official list of propenies deemed worthy of preservation because of their importance in American history and culture.) As a result of the above recommendation , the City of Howell contracted with Carolyn Mann to complete the formal application and documentation for downtown Howell to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places as an Historic District. The National Trust for Historic Preservation formally listed The Howell Downtown Historic District in the National Registry of Historic Places on February 27. 1987. This national recognition is gratifying to Howell residents. and in particular to the many individuals who have labored to have the historic and architectural heritage of Howell receive appropriate recognition . We are especially pleased with Downtown Howell's designation on the National Register of Historic Places. It is our hope that Howell residents and visitors alike will use this booklet of walking tours to explore this beautiful city. and more fully appreciate its architectural gems and historic heritage . I I I I I I I I I I I I I •• I •• INTRODUCTION •• I As early settlers moved into this area. they brought with them the • popular architectural styles of the times. Accordingly. Howell has • I a rich and varied collection of architectural works of art. both • residential and commercial. A number of Greek Revival • residences survive in Howell. and they stand as examples of some of Howelrs earliest homes . These homes were built by early set- • I tiers through the 1850's. and reflect our nation 's strong identifica- • tion with Greece 's struggle for independence from Turkey. To • citizens of the United States in the early to mid-19th century . • Greece's fight for freedom closely paralleled America's birth as a I nation following its struggle with England . Excellent architectural • examples are also evident in Howell from the year s after the • Greek Revival building era . Close to the center of Howell is an • I excellent example of Carpenter Gothic . The Italianate style is ap- • parent in residential areas both in the cube form and in the • Italianate Villa style. The Queen Anne style is also evident throughout Howell's residential neighborhoods. In addition. there • I are numerous examples of Colonial Revival and Bungalow styles. •• The collection of commercial architecture in the downtown area is • diverse and of unusual quality . Both simple as well as ornate I Italianate facades dominate Grand River A venue and State Street. • The Richardsonian Romanesque Court House is the focal point for • the downtown. The Neoclassical Carnegie Library and the Art • I Deco Theater provide interesting contrasts at either end of the • downtown. In the midst of the Italianate buildings are two High • Victorian facades. a Victorian Gothic church, a Modified English Gothic church. a Tudor Revival office building. and the Opera • I House with its distinctive Art Deco storefront. This variety , diver- • sity , and excellence in architectural styles makes Howell unique • among small towns in Michigan . • I In the walking tours, buildings will be referred to as either • · 'Significant" or "Contributing." The City of Howell has defined • these terms in its "Historic Limited Use Districts. Ordinance No. • 481 ." Section 2 of that ordinance defines "Significant" as • I follows: Significant Historic Structures are identified in the • Historic Site Survey of 1986, which is hereby incor- • I porated by reference, and defined as those buildings • which contribute significantly to the character of the • district. All these structures retain a basic integrity of architectural design, setting, materials, and • I workmanship. These structures are identified with •• ix • •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• L•. X important persons, events or types of service, or embody the distinguishing characteristics of an architectural specimen, inherently valuable as a representation of a period, style, or method of construction . Ordinance No. 481 further defines " Contributing" as follows: Contributing Historic Structures are defined as those buildings which, while not possessing the importance of a Significant Historic Structure, make a positive contribution to the purpose of this Chapter due to age or physical integrity. With appropriate repairs and restoration, such buildings may be designated Significant by the City Council at the request of the owners and on the recommendation of the Historic Preservation Commission . In developing this booklet of walking tours for Howell's Sesquicentennial celebration, we acknowledge our deep appreciation to Howell's settlers, who developed this community with common sense , good taste and loving care . Their values live on in the homes and the commercial buildings of our community. Our sentiments echo those of Mrs . E.A. Ross. a descendent of some of Howell's earliest settlers. when she wrote in l 938: And so as we see the lovely old homes about us, and walk among them, we, too, feel that atmosphere, that intangible something, the thread which was yesterday. And, perhaps because of it, our lives are enriched, and made more beautiful; perhaps we strive a little harder to be worthy to follow in the footsteps of those who have labored diligently-accomplished much-and gone on before .

It was platted in 1835 by Fla vius J .B. Crane and Edward Brooks of Detroit and was renamed in honor of Crane' s friend Thomas How ell. the son of a New York state judge . Most of Livingston County 's early settler s left com - fortable surroundings in the state of New York to move west and obtain larger farms than they could have owned in the East. This large migration of New York resident s came about as a result of the opening of the Erie Canal in 1825. The canal's impact over the first five years was not spectacular. but after 1830. thousands of settlers ventured into Michigan's lower peninsula via this 363-mile waterway acro ss New York state . The farmer loaded his family and household goods aboard a canal boat westward to Buffalo , and then continued by steamer on Lake Erie to Detroit. Here he could buy a team of oxen or horses and a wagon and supplies before setting out for his new home in the wilderne ss . The first land sales office had been opened in Detroit in 1818 . The price of land , set by the U.S. Government. was $1.25 an acre. with minimum lot size fixed at eighty acres . The early settler s discovered that food was plentiful. as the area abounded in clean water. fish and wild game. particularly deer and turkey. In most cases, the men came fir st and built their log cabins , then returned later along with their wive s . The log cabins were built with dirt floor s. no window s. blanket s for doors and log-bark roofs. Settler s kept a fire going at night in front of the door to keep away the wolves and bears. There was no real threat from the Native Americans living in the area. as the tribe s had been fragmented or dispersed by the l 830's . The earlie st settlers in Howell . Jame s Sage and his father, George T . Sage , arrived in May of 1834 . They were followed by David Austin in June of 1834, and John D. Pinckney shortly ther eafter. John D. Pinckney brought the first oxen and horses to this area . The original plat of the Village of Howell. about 120 acres. was made by Flavius J.B . Crane and Edward Brook s of Detroit in 1835 . This original plat included a public square . a block of land bounded by Grand River. Walnut. Sibley and Center Streets . When John D . Pinckney arrived, he built his cabin at the southeast .;nd of the lake . This location made his cabin highl y visible to settlers traveling from the east. The y would stay with him until they completed their own cabins. To relieve Pinckn ey· s 1 •• I •• •• I family from the necessity of furnishing food and lodging and to • give a start to their new village. Crane and Brooks agreed to build a tavern house on their plat. This two-story frame building, • twenty feet by forty feet in size , was the first building erected • within the limits of the village and was named The Eagle Tavern. I • It was built on the current site of Sutton's Hardware, and Amos • Adams became the first landlord. The Eagle Tavern was the only • building in the village. causing it to be used for a variety of pur- I poses including: post office, courtroom. church. and retail store . •• During those early days , supplies were hauled by wagon and a • team of oxen. The mail was delivered by horse and rider in I • Howell's version of the Pony Express . The route was to Kensington to the east and Grand Rapids to the west. The trip took six • or seven days to Grand Rapids and back . •• In the following years Howell experienced popularity. growth and I • prosperity which has continued to the present time. This very • positive and consistent pattern can be traced primarily to the following factors : I • l. The soil was rich and naturally lent itself to farming, enabling • Howell and Livingston County to become an area known for its • fertile lands and excellent dairy herds . I • 2 . Howell's designation as the Livingston County seat of govern- • ment played a stabilizing role in the community and also contributed to Howell's growth and development. • 3. Howell 's convenient location on the Grand River Trail enabled I • settlers to journey to Howell. kept Howell in consistent contact • with the outside world, and allowed increasing numbers of • travelers to come to Howell by way of the Plank Roads in the I mid-1800 s . • 4 . Howell was a community served by railroads, the nation· s ma- • jor source of transportation at the time . This enabled people to • conveniently travel to and from Howell. It gave Howell access to I • product s from considerable distance and also provided a means • for exporting Howell's products . •• I •• I !.• Please note that our three sources of early history.

The three-story, brick Livingston County Court House is Richardsonian Romanesque in style. It was designed by Albert E. French and was constructed by Waterbury and Wright. Gabled dormers accentuate the steeply pitched, slate-clad, hip roof. Concrete belt courses with modillions or dentils highlight all elevations at transom lines and between the second and third stories. Single and paired, double-sash windows with arched transoms and arched, stone lintels distinguish all elevations. Recessed, paneled, fanlighted, double-door entries are characterized by stepped romanesque stone-and-brick arches and by square pilasters with scrolled capitols. The ground floor is coursed Ohio Blue Stone. A small balcony with a recessed, arched door and a simple, iron balustrade accents the north elevation. Two tall interior chimneys with decorated caps pierce the north-elevation roof. A square clock and bell tower projects upward from the center of the roof . The present courthouse replaced an earlier Greek Revival structure which was built in 1847. Albert French, architect of the 1889 building, emigrated from Prince Edward Island in Canada. He lived in Pittsburgh, PA in 1872 and moved to Detroit in 1877.

Brighton and Howell were both vying for the county seat. In those early days conflict reigned. Defeat piled upon defeat in terms of erecting county offices. Court was held in the Presbyterianc hurch and in the ballroom of a local hotel while the battle to build continued. Peter and Maria Cowdry and Edward Thompson each deeded a square of property to be used for county buildings. Finally in 1847, almost ten years from the time of the first efforts, a courthouse was erected. When that building was condemned in 1889, plans were made for construction of the present building. After considerabled ifficulty, the new courthouse was built. William Kessler & Associates of Detroit. in consultation with Chambers & Chambers. restoration architects from Akron. Ohio . was the architectural firm retained in 1975 to restore the Livingston County Courthouse . Led by County Commissioner Lynne Jamieson. the Courthouse Preservation Committee succeeded in acquiring funds to restore the Courthouse. Out of their efforts, the Friends of the Livingston County Courthouse was formed in 1976. Ed Francis of Kessler & Associates produced a drawing of the Courthouse and donated it for fundraising purpose s . This illustration can be seen on the Howell Downtown Historic District National Register plaques . In May of 1976 a county referendum was passed to approve the selling of $1.45 million in bonds to restore the Courthouse. A contract was signed with Elgin Builders of Southfield in January of 1977. The restoration was complete in 1978 . The interior frescoes. originally painted by John Rogers Burdick and Matthew A. Dowling. assisted by Gardner Preston. were recreated by Darla Olson of Brighton. She was assisted by Susan Michael. Ann Spehar. Chris Shuker. Helen Johnson. Mary Wilkinson and Edward Young .

A six-paneled wood door flanked by fluted pilasters highlights the entry. A stone foundation supports the structure. This house was built for Almon Whipple, a local merchant and land developer, in 1848. Early community histories indicate Whipple was involved in a variety of pursuits through the years including cattle droving in 183 7, acting as village postmaster, Howell Township Supervisor, Handy Township Clerk and as a member of the planning group for the Howell Fairgrounds. The Whipple house was sold to Zinas and Sarah Jewett Grossman in I 864. Sarah was a daughter of Howell pioneer, George W . Jewett.

John Weimeister built the former National Hotel in 1875. It opened as a public house in 1876. Weimeister was born in Germany in 1825. He came to the United States in 1854. Weimeister was involved in numerous enterprises including a boot, shoe and grocery store in Genoa Township and mills at Oak Grove. In the 1860s . he and Neil O'Hearn established a bank in Howell. The building at 209 East Grand River formerly housed this institution until the firm was dissolved in 1889. Weimeister's financial interests in real estate were depleted in the financial crash of 1889. He died almost penniless on October 3, 1889 . The property served as a hotel until the early 1960s. when it was sold to W. D. Adams who converted it to a clothing store. The Badaraks purchased the building in the early 1980s .

This three-story, brick Italianate structure at the southeast comer of Grand River Avenue and Michigan Avenue, is highlighted by a heavy cornice, brackets and dentilation. The north and west elevations of the second and third stories feature recessed, arched, double-sash windows with multi-lights (fan light) in the upper sash, topped by keystone hood molds and accented by projecting sills. The ground-floor storefront features a contemporary facade using poured concrete, vertically placed showroom-style windows and aluminum capolies. The first-story west elevation is highlighted by rectangular , four-lighted windows. Those on the south are four-over-four arched windows . This structure, known originally as the Jewett Block, was constructed in 1872. It housed the Jewett, Goodnow and Hickey drygoods merchants. In 1899. Sherman Jewett deeded the property to Charles Goodnow. During the early years of the building's history, the north elevation at the eave line was dominated by a simpler cornice, embellished by a projecting, curved pediment . It featured curved molding. The firm's name, Goodnow, was emblazoned on the facade below in large, raised letters. The First State Savings Ban1c shared a portion of the structure beginning in 1919. In 1946 First National Ban1c purchased the building . During that era, the westerly portion of the store front assumed a classical facade with a pediment over the door, flan1ced by marble-like pilasters and comer pilasters. The easterly portion of the storefront retained its original components with expansive, plate-glass windows, transom, kickplate and recessed entry. In 1968 First National Ban1c altered the facade as described earlier. The store had featured a simple, dentilated-cornice with fluted pilasters flanking transomed, double-doors. First National Ban1c had its beginnings in Howell in 1920. It merged with the First State Savings Ban1c in 1946. 11 •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• A WALK THROUGH TIME SEVEN WALKING TOURS OF HOWELL , MICHIGAN CORRECTIONS AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FIRST NATIONAL BANK 101 E GRAND RIVER HOWELL , Ml 48843 Built 1890 ( { A; •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• 7.

Two, interior, stone chimneys bisect the roofline . Through the influence of Howell Postmaster, W .H.S. Wood and the Carnegie Foundation, the library was completed in 1906. Wood circulated a petition in 1901 to have a proposition on the ballot to establish a township library . Carnegie offered to furnish $10,000 if Howell could provide the site. The 1901 vote was favorable. E. E. Meyers, designer of the State Capitol in Lansing, was selected as architect for the project. The four sons of William McPherson, pioneer entrepreneur, purchased an entire block for the site. The part of the property which the library occupies was accepted by the township . The remainder of the block was designated a public park .

Carnegie agreed to an additional gift of $5,000. That money and a grant from the Howell Women 's Club allowed the building to be completed. The Howell Carnegie Library opened in November, 1906. It is an example of Andrew Carnegie's philanthropy which encouraged the construction of libraries throughout the United States. The Carnegie Library lawn features these items of interest: Civil War Historical Marker. This marker was erected by Waddell Women's Relief Corps in memory of Waddell Post 120 and all Veterans of Livingston County who served in the War of 1861-1865. It includes the inscription "They fought to save us a Nation. " Centennial Vault Historical Marker .

McPherson Family Memo - this information was provided by my father, Robert McFadyen to me, his daughter, Elizabeth McFadyen Payn and can be verified though city and county records . My dad's uncle, William Alexander from Fowlerville helped William McPherson secure a large section of land that was available for homesteading . He built a bank, a department store, and also a home residence . He also built a beautiful home for each of his children that stayed in Howell. The large brick house that we lived in and were in charge of was built by William for his oldest son, Alex McPherson. The Howell hospital was originally built as a house for his son, Edward and used the same floor plan as the red brick house but on a much smaller scale. (see page 21) Across the street from the red brick house, he built a beautiful house for his son William. The house next door to the red brick house was for his daughter, Mrs. Gregory.

'' The row was embellished with a plank • I pavement in April of 1881. This was considered a great improve- • ment to the area in that day of dirt streets.

After signing a three-year lease , Mr . • Bush placed large, front-page box ads in the Livingston • I Republican newspaper during the month of May, 1881. He adver- • tised " picture frames, house plants and toys, " among other • things. He said that he would accept "butter, eggs or produce" in exchange. In bold print he declared his business to be located on • I ' 'Peanut A venue. ' ' A month later the newspaper reported that • "Frank Bush of Peanut Avenue has a new peanut roaster ." Soon • other tenants on the street began to announce themselves as • I located on " Peanut Avenue."

James A. Garfield, Andrew 'Jackson and hundreds of others whose names shine out as b eacon lights in national history, lived in the lob cabin in the days long since gone by. The day of the sturdy pioneer found him in an unbroken country full of massive trees and a fuller determination to hew for himself and family a home where he might thi-ive and prosper. · Many miles, perhaps, lay betw~en him and the saw mill that would cut the logs into boards with which to bui ld the home nest, and rather than wait the time when the mills should come to him he cut the trees down, s haped them as he desire!}, and with mud as a filler between the logs builded for himself the humble log ca bin. •.rrue, there was often suffering in the se humble homes, but there was also much of joy and happ iness a s th e children came to mak.e t h e hom e the brighter and add new hop es to the pioneer parents of tho se d a ys of long ago. · Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Tubbs of this city lov e the memories of those early da ys. They h a ve an eye to the beauty and the historic worth of the log cabin p eriod, and Mr. Tubbs, a d eal er fo r many years in harp wood lumber, concejved a few years ago th e idea of b ui!dinec a 1o~ c a bin that 33F the long ago.

A seat for the children is made from a piece o! white wood 24 in- ' ches wide and about eight feet long without a knot or crack, and used In winter before the huge fire to keep the l!ttle folks warm and com - fortable. A child's cradle also which stood close to the floor is one of the articles seen; also boot jacks of various lcinds, candle sticks and candle moulds, bullet moulds, melting ladle, a cl!,binet of rare old china, powder horns, shot p ouches, one made from the tanned hide of a wood chuck. A gun and sword, both relics of the p a st, which bear the distinction of being 140 years old. A Seth Thom a s clock with wooden wheels is one of the curios in the cabin and in days of old aided the farmers or pioneers in keeping in touch with the hour of the day. The n1usic of the past Is representerl 1, y a small melodian and a dulcim er to whose m erry music many of the younger set of those other days tripped the light fantastic toe. ;rn the · cabin also Is s een manv samples of the fancy work whici1 fell to the hand s ot' our pionee1· mothers and daughters, of flowers made from feathers, yarn, wax and even seeds .

The south elevation is accented by an arched, gabled entry porch which is supported by simple, triple pillars. Entrance is via a sidelighted door. A carriage porch accents the west elevation . William E. Robb, founder of Citizen's Mutual Automobile Insurance Company. had this house built. Robb was an attorney who worked his way throught the University of Michigan by selling windstorm insurance for Lapeer Mutual Insurance Company . With the advent of the horseless carriage , Robb saw the need for auto insurance. He introduced legislation in Lansing that would allow Michigan automobile owners the choice of owning insurance in a mutual company. Before this legislation was passed, mutual auto insurance was not allowed in Michigan. After passage. Robb founded Citizen's Mutual automobile Insurance Company in Howell in 1915 . 14. 403 Lake Street, Gilbert House. Contributing . Ca. 1887.

He was a charter member of the Howell Shooting Club in 1878 . 16. 603 Barnard Street. Significant . Ca. 1890. This unadorned, clapboard-sided home is typical of many folk cottages in this communty. The side-gabled dwelling features fourover- four double-sash windows topped by shaped lintels. The east elevation boasts a newer, one-story wing with shed roof and a newer concrete block foundation . Deeds records indicate that this property was sold in 1890 to Joseph Smith, subject to taxes from 1886, by William McPherson, Jr. Local histories offer no significant facts concerning Smith, nor the owners who purchased the cottage from him in 1900. Even without tax records between 1880 to 1890, it is safe to conclude that Smith had the house constructed; because McPherson had the land platted and nearly all of it was vacant when it was sold. ,?~ £~A,vv 35 •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• A WALK THROUGH TIME SEVEN WALKING TOURS OF HOWELL, MICHIGAN CORRECTIONS AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 603 N Barnard Street Howell, Michigan 48843 BAKHAUS, MARK E JR & BOTIUM, GLADYS 7841 STATES T BRIGHTON,M l 48116 Built 1890 •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• •• 17. 504 Court Street, Orphans' Home . 1868.

Constructed during the nation's 100th birthday , the Centennial House has comforted children, offered a relaxing retreat during the summer and even produced pencils . The Italianate Villa home was built by George Greenaway, a dry-goods merchant in downtown Howell. George's store was located at the northeast corner of Grand River Avenue and Michigan Avenues, where Uptown Coffeehouse is today. His name is still visible at the top of the building . George was also a philanthropist. He donated the property for the construction of a church, which is now called All Saints Angelical Chapel , on S.

Eventually, the home passed on to George's youngest daughter, Emma. Emma married Jack Ballard, and she peTformed with him on Broadway under the name Billy Ray. The Centennial House was Emma's summer home- a place for peace and tranquility away from the big city. For a time, the house sat vacant and many local children thought it was haunted. During World War II, the carriage house was used as a pencil factory, said John Mullaney, who now owns the home with his wife, Kelly. Some of the dies used to make the pencils were still on the property when John's parents, Jackie and Larry Mullaney, purchased the home in 1976. Although the house had been neglected by a previou s owner, Jackie and Larry found the nearly 5,000 square feet perfect for ·caring for dozens and dozens of foster children over the years - six of whom they adopted.

Historic Site Marker designating Old Indian Trail, erected by The Daugbten of the American Revolution in 1923. 54 In 1834 the first settlers and homesteaders began arriving in Howell by way of primitive Native American trails which had been cut through the virgin timber years earlier . The Grand River Trail actually began to take shape over 12,000 years ago as the huge Wisconsin Ice Sheet was receding northward from southern Michigan. Glaciers and meltwaters from these glaciers sculpted natural passages through some portions of the state. The major passages were adopted by animals such as the mastodon and caribou. Thousands of years later, Native Americans developed the trail for travel. The first modem improvement in the Grand River Trail began in 1847 with the building of a "plank road ." The Detroit to Howell section was completed in 1850. The Howell to Lansing section was finished in 1852. The road was built with boards of eight feet to sixteen feet in length . Reports filed at that time indicate ' ' . . . trips that formerly required four to six days to complete could be completed via a plank road in a total elapsed time of ten to fourteen hours.'' This turned out to be a short-term solution because the planks warped and decayed . By the tum of the century, plank roads were no longer being built.

Deeds records show the property was owned by John Tomkins until 1867 when it was sold to David Blackman. According to the deeds, it remained in the Blackman family until 1887 when the property was sold to Frank Z. Hubbell. John Haas owned it from 1905 until 1925 when the property was sold to Francis J.

In public life E. P. Gregory served as township clerk, village president in 1887, circuit court commissioner, director of Howell Public Schools and commissioner to secure a tuberculosis sanitarium in Howell.

Brokaw, who had one daughter Kitsey, a student in Howell Schools. Note: Daughter died when struck by lightning in the front yard. Note from Elizabeth Hadyen Payn - I was born in 1897 and my mother often told me of the way I learned to run away when I was old enough to go out to play. It seems that I learned to climb over the stiles that was over the hedge between the two houses. Mrs. Brokaw made good cookies . My mother also told me that the Brokaws moved back east after they sold the furniture store . She did hear from Mrs. Brokaw occasionally and that Kitsey was modeling ready to wear in large New York Stores . After the Brokaws moved out of this house it was rented by trainers of the McPherson Racing stable. There were two different families that I remember because I played with and went to school with their children. The names of these two families were Lerch and Sommerville. When McPherson Smith Sr was married, he bought the house and converted it into a beautiful modern home. 819 W Grand River Stately Grand River Ave Howell Historic home in downtown area.

And like most old houses it has an interesting history and succession of owners_ It is unknown when it was built but its first owner came to Howell in 1838a nd in 1840h is home was on the Howell tax list. He was Dr. Gardner Wheeler the first medic in town. The village then consisted of a little cluster of 13 houses centered around the old Public Square of the Crane and Brooks plat, which was bounded by Grand River, Walnut, Sibley and Center, but the Wheeler home was well within the present bounds of Howell. According to the late Judge Josiah Turner, the 13 buildings in Howell at this time belonged to Messrs_ Wheeler, Jewett, McPherson, Skilbeck, Jeffries, Fishbeck. Field, Glover, Curtis, Gregory, Root, Taylor and Weston. Mr. Whipple and Mr. Rohrabacher arrived during the year . There were several families at a little distance and Ol}tside the village but who might be said to belong to Howell, a~they were within easy walking distance . They were the $age, Austin, Thompson, Pinckney, Sliter and West families . BUILT ON GRAND RIVER Dr. Gardner Wheeler's house was west of town, on the south side of Grand River, at the -southwest corner where it meets Isbell Street, although it may have been set back from '/4, the road . The street was then Wheeler Street. Like most of the early settlers' homes it was very small and low, abou t une story or a story and a ha lf high. It was a typical sa lt-box style, 18 by 30 feet, with the door on the long side, and had returning eaves and small-paned windows . These early settlers' homes were much different from the tall and imposing homes which were built around Howell in the 1860, 1870 and 1880's. Some of these are on S. Walnut and N. Court and have beautiful gingerbread trim . By this time people could relax and spend time on the nicities, but the early homes were strictly utilitarian . Dr. Gardner Wheeler was a very imporla i,· man in Howell's early history . Besides being the first doctor , he was the first worshipful master of the Masonic lodge, was many times supervisor of the township, was interested in educa lion and several times was school inspector . He practiced medicine over 20 years and was a highly respected citizen . He was a nephew of Villeroy E ., John W., and Elisha H. Smith . Elisha was the author of Howell's first history. To quote from Crittenden's History of Howell: "His <Dr. Wheeler's> office stood where the Sabin block now stands, was moved in later years and is now a part of the first house south of Parshall's mill. His residence, which occupied the site of M. J . McPherson's home, was moved up the Byron Road and is now < 1911) owned by John Owen. "Old settlers say that his office was moved a second time and became the home of the late Tressie Cameron on W. Clinton Street. l\11LITIA TRAINED HERE There was an early militia company in Howell and Dr. Wheeler's farm was used as the training grounds . Again from Crittenden: "- the 40 acres sold to M. J. and Alexander McPherson by Mrs. A. L. Crittenden soon after her husband's death was prepared for training purposes ." After this home was moved to Byron Road, it had a succession of owners besides Jesse Owen. It is not known when it was moved to Byron Road but it was there in 1875. A 10 foot addition was built for a kitchen, the old trap door to the cellar was closed, the fireplace was torn out, and new chimneys built Cockrane's, who owned it for a time, remodeled it greatly. The old entrance on the long side was changed to the gable end or west side facing Byron Road. During this time the old clapboards were covered with pebble-dash and a two-sided porch was added to the front. About 10 years ago, the porch was enclosed and the house covered with aluminum siding. In the course of his remodeling, an old window which had been closed up was discovered to have been boarded up with the business sign of the Fishbeck Bros., a firm which has been out of existence for many years. This home, which is situated on the northeast corner of W. Clinton and Byron Road, has some unusual features of construction: the four corner posts of the home protrude on the inside of the house as in barn construction . Also the under structure is not beams and joists but beams in both directions; the smaller beams, which are four inches square, are mortised at right angles into the large beams which are eight inches square. The large beams are all hand adzed, and some of the baseboards have beadings formed by hand with a chisel. Beams under the addition are logs. This is the Albert Rohrabacher home, 201 Byron Road. .45 ...,.. '..., ....

Corner boards. horizontal banding between the stories and snme Queen Anne stained-glass windows complete the decorative accents. The lack nf continuous tax-records prohibits a conclusion regarding the date of the construction of this house. A check of incomplete tax records housed at the Howell City Hall indicates a structure on the site in 1890. In 1883. Marcellus Dickinson purchased the property. Little is known about him except for his military history which is cited in the 1911 history of Howell. A series of owners have since been associated with the property. 5. 403 Wetmore Street.

The north facade is accented by a porch with a hip roof. spindling. turned porch posts and a sawn balustrade. A smaller porch in a similar style highlights the cast ele vation . Conclusive evidence concerning the time of this house ·s construction cannot be found , because the property upon which the house stands was part of a larger parcel. J. R. Axtell , proprietor of a steam sawmill. owned the propert y from 1862 to 1870. David Blackman owned it before then. In 1870. Sally Smith took out two mortgages. but the assessed valuation did not fluctuate sufficiently to determine whether the house was built then or had already existed . When Sally Smith assumed ownership in 1870. lot 114. on which the house stands. was listed separately on the tax roles.

Significant. 1892. The former Condensed Milk Factory is composed of several industrial structures built with a variety of materials . The main building is rectangular. clad in brick or constructed concrete block. It has a flat roof on the two-story part and a monitor roof on the one-story part of the building. Except for fixed-sash clerestory window s . the building"s fenestration is six-over-six paned double sash windows . Other structures include a windowless board-and-batten clad building. a shingled building with four-overfour double-sash windows. and a one-story cement block building attached to the main building . The complex experienced fires in I 906 and 1942. resulting in a structure somewhat dissimilar from the original building. The Condensed Milk Factory was constructed in 1892 to handle the great milk production of the dairy industry in Howell. Since the condensed milk factory in Lansing was operating at capacity. the Livingston County dairymen met in the Opera House in Howell in 1891 to make plans for raising $5 .000 to secure a plant in Howell. In 1893 the plant opened with Edward P. Gregory as superintendent. Gregory was succeeded by William S. Sanderlands in 1908 . At one time. milk production was 90.000 pounds per day. with $360 ,000 per year paid to local farmers . The payroll averaged $40.000 per year. In 1914. the Borden Company purchased the plant and operated it till the mid-1920's . In 1931, the complex was sold to Bruce Products. a floor care manufacturing firm still in operation in Howell today. 69 A WALK THOUGH TIME SEVEN WALKING TOURS OF HOWELL, MICHIGAN Alger Street Indian Marking trees Page 69 supplement 12. 518 Byron Road, Sharpe House.

Hickey bought the six-acre parcel of land and began to divide it in 1871, the probable date of construction . Earl A. and Clara A. Sharpe became the first recorded owners of the house on January 31, 1916. Mr. Sharpes· father purchased the house for $1,250 as a wedding gift. Mr. and Mrs. Sharpe lived there until their respective deaths in 1968 and 1960. Their only child Maurine Sharpe Crandall, kept the house as rental property until she sold it to Mary B. Darling on February 25, 1974. Ms. Darling sold it in 1977 to Citizen's Insurance Company who moved the house to its present location. Earl Sharpe had been a test driver for REO Oldsmobile in Lansing, and also was chauffeur and groundskeeper for Alice McPherson Spenser. He also was a real estate salesman and served for twenty-five years as Chief of Howell's volunteer fire department. Clara Sharpe was an accomplished poet. She was the first woman in Howell to fly in an airplane. She came to Howell to work as a milliner's trimmer following the death of her first husband, a Detroit fire-fighter who was killed in the line of duty.

All 5 homes on Fleming Street between the 300 and 400 blocks were built between 1890-1900. The reason that an exact date is usually not available is because the abstracts do not show houses, only property ownership because property Never goes away but buildings do. Unless an original builder passed blueprints and additional information along to the home owner and then it was passed as the home was sold, there isn't any way to pinpoint exact date.

AMERICAN LEGION AUXILIARY #235 OF BRIGHTON THIS page is dedicated to the American Legion Auxiliary #235 of Brighton, a patriotic organization organized in March, 1929, in the old school house. During the war we made a complete employment census of Brighton, organized the First Bond Drive and helped with all Bond Drives, assisted in all Red Cross work, such as hospital work, helped at Blood Banks, and made surgical dressings, sewed , donated to the Red Cross Club Mobile Units , and sponsored "Gifts for the Yanks who Gave" and Gift Shops for the Veterans' Hospitals, one member teaching Braille in Veterans' Hospital.

BLUE ST AR MOTHERS OF BRIGHTON The Blue Star Mothers of Brighton was organized at the home of Mrs. Guy Pitkin, November 10, 1942. All mothers of men and women in the service were eligible for membership. At first it functioned as Chapter 51 of the Department of Michigan, Blue Star Mothers of America, but at the close of the war they withdrew from the National Organization and became a local club. Their work during the war was in making laprobes, scuffies and crutch pads for the veter an hospitals of Michigan. They collected and shipped thousands of pounds of maga z ines to Per cy Jones and Fort Custer Hospitals. They raised money by various activities and purchased five wheel chairs and one walk-a-chair for the Percy Jones Hospital. They contributed generously to the Blue Star Mothers Michigan Rehabilitation Lodge and have sent monthly contributions to veteran hospitals for their ''cookie jar'' and ''telephone home'' funds, also sent monthly allotments to the "Keeno" wards. Forty boxes were donated to the American Legion Auxiliary "Give to a Yank" and aided in their Christmas "Imaginary Family" project. Our men and women in service were remembered at Christmas time with boxes or other gifts, also on their 1.:>irthdays or at times of illness. The members of our club cheered each other during the trying time and found comfort in working together. Mrs. Pitkin was elected president for the first two years, she has been succeeded by Mrs. P. Leitz, Mrs. R. Luce, Mrs. H. Young, Mrs. G. Kirchbaum and Mrs. H. Warner. The club has participated in all patriotic activities in the city and has assisted in community work and aiding the Red Cross. Following is a list of members during the active year: 1.

She continued in this position until she resigned in February, 1943. On February 16, 1943, (Mrs. Thomas S.), Ethel M. Leith was elected Chairman of the Brighton Unit, Brighton's contribution to Red Cross work during the war years was chiefly under the following headings: I - Home Service for Service & Ex-service men & their Families II - Civilian Relief III - Home Hygiene and Care of the Sick IV - Nutrition V - First Aid VI - Junior Red Cross VII - Volunteer Special Services Home Service 169 Home Service cases were taken care · of. These were divided among the following headings: 1 - Dependencies, allotments, loans, and other financial aid. 2 - Furloughs and extensions of furloughs. 3 - Maternity cases. 4 - Relief - Clothing, bedding, dishes and other household furnishings to families of service men. 5 - Correspondence dealing with various types of Home Service Work. Civilian Relief Civilian Relief was given in the following cases: We collected and gave out clothing to twenty-five families, bedding to six families, dishes and other household furnishings to two families, who completely lost their homes by fire. Besides the used bedding, we presented one family with a new comforter and a woolen lap robe. We delivered many carloads of magazines to some of these homes. One family was aided financially and clothing was bought for several children, We collected and gave a great amount of clothing for the European Clothing Drive in 1944 and in 1945 we took charge of the Drive for this worthwhile cause in Brighton, as as a result an even greater amount of clothing was collected than that collected in 1944. Many letters were written answering all sorts of inquiries to questions concerning problems, which people felt that the Red Cross could and would help them solve. Home Hygiene Care the Sick Mrs. Merl Rolison, Chairman Two classes in Home Nursing were given. The first one was taught by Mrs. Lucretia Smith. The second one was taught by Mrs. Chet Paquette, Fifty-eight women received Home Nursing Certificates. ' • • • Nutrition A class of thirty women received certificates in Nutrition. Mrs .

In 1945, there was 100% membership in High School. Three hundred and twenty-eight were enrolled in the grades. $11 . 00 was spent on magazine subscriptions. Volunteer Special Services Brighton Unit made notable contributions to the Volunteer Special Services of the Red Cross, especially in the fields of: 1 - Production 2 - Blood Donor Service 3 - Miscellaneous Activities Production work in Surgical Dressings, Sewing, and Knitting was ably carried on under the leadership of Mrs. Vaughn Snow, Mrs. Harold K. Lewis and Mrs. Lyman Daniells respectively . 155, 893 surgical dressings were made in 9, 254 working hours during the period from February 23, 1943 through December 31, 1944. Besides these Red Cross Dressings, our unit made 2, 200 dressings for Mellus Hospital in Brighton, at the request of Dr . A. J . McGregor. For two years our Surgical Dressing Unit donated funds for subscriptions sent to Colonel Carstens , Commanding Officer of the Harper Hospital Unit in Italy for the pleasure of the wounded soldiers. We also donated $20 ·to the Ida C. Hibbard Fund used toward purchasing an artificial hand for some unfortunate soldier. We opened our Surgical Dressing rooms in the Federated Church of Brighton on February 23, 1943. The following week the church burned and we were obliged to seek other quarters. We moved into rooms over the Brighton State Bank, which were made available through the courtesy of Mr. R. 0. Newcomb. We were permitted the use of these rooms with heat free of charge . They were well lighted and of such size as to give us seating capacity for sixty workers. The Community Club paid for electricity and sundries. Chairs were loaned us by Mr. Emil Keehn and the American Legion and the tables by the Federated Church. A summary of the work done in Sewing follows: Ninty-seven baby nightgowns, one boy's flannel shirt, one baby quilt, eighty-seven pairs of men's pajamas, twenty-one men's shirts, two large comforters, sixty-one tropical lap robes (54x54), fifty-seven woolen lap robes (6x4), one hundred and one pairs of scuffies, one knitted afghan, twelve bath robes, twenty baby dresses, twenty baby slips, six kit bags, twenty house dresses, thirty-five ladies skirts, fifteen ladies blouses, eighteen men's hospital shirts, thirty-seven girls dresses, twentyseven wool skirts, forty-two child's rompers, seventy-four baby shirts, fifty diapers, thirty mittens. The Knitting consisted of the following: Two hundred and twenty-six sweaters, thirty-one pairs of gloves, twelve helmets, fifteen pairs of socks and ten mufflers. The Blood Donor _ Service, under chairmanship of the following people was an outstanding ·work of Brighton Unit. General Chairman, Mrs. Thomas S. Leith. Registration Chairman, Mrs. John S. Page of Howell. Appointment Chairman, Mrs. Merl Rolison. Publicity Chairman, 1942 - November 18, 1944, Mrs. Russell Shannon. Publicity Chairman, November 18, 1944, Mrs. Charles Austin. Canteen Chairman for five visits, Mrs. Ralph Hamburger. Canteen Chairman for one visit, Mrs. Claude Rolison. Staff Supper Chairman, Mrs . Alfred Stonex . Six visits were made to Livingston County by the Mobile Unit of the American Red Cross Blood Donor Service from Detroit. The blood center was set up in Brighton _High School for each of these visits. The dates of the visits and the number of pints of blood donated during each visit follows: July 8, 1943 October 1, 1943 June 1, 1944 September 6, I 944 December 7, 1944 April 5, 1945 24 7 pints 241 pints 254 pints 260 pints 272 pints 255 pints Total blood donated was 1,529 pints during six visits. We have signed statement by J. Leitch, a Red Cross Orderly, in which he wrote that we had the highest average of pints of blood per day on "A" Unit sinc'e April 17, 1944 of any place visited by the Unit from that date until that present date of April 5, 1945. Many people worked to make these visits the success they were. Through the generous donations of money and food from Brighton friends of Red Cross, the total expense to Livingston County Chapter was limited to $77 .87 for the six visits. • Under Miscellaneous Activities: We assisted at the Dedication ceremonies of the Community Honor Roll in Brighton, September 11, 1943. Mrs. Clifford Harter and Miss Elizabeth Steenssen received Nurses' Aid Certificates in Wastenaw County. Livingston County benefited as a result of this training, by having these women serve -. at the six visits of the Blood Bank. Mrs. Thomas S. Leith exhibited and talked on foreign dolls for the benefit of the Junior Red Cross of the Gage School in Green Oak on December 3, 1943. During the Fifth War Loan Drive, the Brighton Surgical Dressings Unit participated in the parade, which opened the drive and again on August 15, 1945 we entered a float in the Victory parade to celebrate V-J Day. On February 29, 1944 we held a luncheon at the 1.0.0.F. Hall, which was attended by eighty-two women. At that time, recognition was given to all women, who had worked enough hours in Production work to earn pins and stripes. Another purpose for which the luncheon was held was to stimulate interest in Red Cross Activities. Numerous inquiries were made con c erning gifts for Percy Jones General and Convalescent Hospital at Battle Creek, Michigan. Assistance was given several groups in advising them and in directing the purchase of twenty-one wheel chairs and one artificial hand. Contributions were encouraged to be sent to the Ida C. Hibbard Fund for the purchase of artificial limbs for service men. Respectfully submitted, (Mrs. Thomas S.) Ethel M.

Rose Post #215 American Legion, 110 • I I • AMERICAN RED CROSS The American Red Cross as in all emergencies of the past came to the front and organized their forces for their part in the work ahead, The women responded to their every call for knitted comforts for the duration of the war. If any man or woman of the many branches of the service, went without these comforts, even in the remotest corner of the globe, it was because they had no means of knowing it. They placed in the hands of millions of soldiers, remembrances of a loyal and patriotic people. These remembrances went not only to the camps in our own country, but to the troops in the remote parts of the theatres of operations, and to the Allied countries. Surgical dressings and hospital garments were furnished by the Red Cross, the hours were long, the pay was small, but they worked diligently and with the purpose of filling their quotas in the required time. Red Cross courses were conducted for those who desired to acquire knowledge of first aid practices and home nursing, this knowledge was most imperative, because of the shortage of Doctors and nurses, caused by their entry into the services of their country. The danger of air raids stimulated a great interest in first aid treatment, and in co-operation with civilian defense authorities, gave instructions to hundreds on this subject within our country. In the field of medicine the Red Cross gave valuable service, and through its many agencies, blood of millions of American donors was acquired and stored for use on the battle fields. Thousands of nurses aids were trained to take over the duties of trained nurses in order that they could be released for duty with the armed services. A woman's motor corps was also organized and trained, equipment to fit them for work behind or near the lines of battle. To all of the men and women who took part in all the work done by the American Red Cross, we owe them a deep debt of gratitude . 111 There are still signs left here and ther e of trenches whic h were used in World War I, 1914 to 19 18 a s this phot o shows, in the f or e s t s a bout Busendorf, in the Al sa c e - L orr a ine country of G e rlllAny. REMNANT TRENCHES LEFT FROM WORLD WAR I With the crowning of the King of Prussia as the Emperor of Germany, William II came to the throne in 1888, and became involved in a series of Imperial rivalries which finally culminated in the first world war, an armed conflict in which 29 nations (the allies) were pitted against Germany, Austria, Hungary, Turkey, and Bulgaria, (the Central Powers). It began on July 28, 1914 with a declaration of War upon Serbia by Austria, Hungary because of the assassination of an Austrian Prince by a Serbian, and ended with a general armistice on November 11, 1918. It has been said that the Allied Powers won the war but lost the peace because they failed to establish in 1919 and thereafter, a world free from injustices and aggressions. At the termination of World War I, Emperor William II fled to Holland in e x ile. Under the terms of the Versailles treaty General Von Hindenburg was placed at the head of the German people, intended to be a democratic a nd peaceable Weimac Republic of Germ any. But the Allied Powers including the United States, failed to give any real support to the head of the German peoples Government in its international dealings throughout the 1920's furnished the excuse for many of the communist and Na zi groups in the Reich and finally in January 1933 the Nazis seized power of the Berlin Government.

In its origin and implications the second world war which began on September 1, 1939 was in reality a continuation of the first world war of 1914 to 1918. Adolph Hitler born at Braunau, Upper Austria in 1889, and because of his hostility to the Austro-Hungarian regime, moved to Munich and enlisted in the Bavarian Army during World War I and came out of this conflict with the rank of Corporal. After the close of the war he formed the nucleous of the National Socialist Party in Germany which found a ready reception by the then bewildered people. Thinking his party and storm Troopers strong enough for a march, ordered the ill-fated "beer hall putsch" on November 8, 1923 . Hitler with Rudolph Hess was jailed as a result, and served nine months in prison, during this time the much publicised "Mein Kemph" was written. After their release, backed by powerful industrialists, reorganized his illegal party. On January 30, 1933 Von Hindenburg was forced to appoint Hitler, Chancellor of Germany. Two months later the Nazi controlled Reichstag granted Hitler dictatorial powers, thus becoming '"Reichsfuhrer". His regime was marked by drastic anti-simitic measures, brutal liquidation of political opponents and an aggressive international policy. Important events included, the Nazi blood purge in June 1934. Conscription 1935 and contrary to the Versailles Treaty, Remilitarization of the Rhineland 1936. Military support of the Spanish Rebels and seizure of Austria March 1938, of the Sudetenl a nd September 1938, of Czechoslovakia March 1939, and the invasion of Poland September 1939, which forced Great Britain and France into a war against Germany on September 3, 1939. In 1940 Hitler personally directed the Campaign by the opening of a western front with 40 Nazi divisions and 1000 planes, marched into Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxemburg. The Nazis had complete superiority on the ground and in the air and in four days Rotterdam had fallen and Dutch resistance ceased. Queen Wilhelmina and her royal family had fled to England. Quickly the Nazis had control of the Ardennes and the Belgium fortifications at Liege and Namur were surrounded. The French Army under General Andre Corap was annihilated in the vicinity of Sedan and left a great gap through which the Nazi Armored columns sped toward the channel ports. On May 17, 1940 the Na z is entered Brussels and three days later was at the Cambrai-Peronne Road. King Leopold of Belgium ordered unconditional surrender. The position of the Allies in the north was then intenable, and they withdrew toward Dunkirk. Three hundred thirty-five thousand troops had been evacuated from Dunkirk to England 114 by June 4, 1940. The F rench Armies after many unsuccessful a tt e mp t s to stem the tide of the Na z is we re forced to ab a ndon any further efforts to prevent the Na z is from reaching Paris , in order to preserve its magnificent be a uty a nd historical structures , the Government of Fr a nce moving to Borde a u x on June 10 , 1940. Italy entered the war on the side of Germany thus c a using another front to be ope ned for the French to defend. On June 17 , 1940 France signed an A rmistice a gr e ement with Germany, and two days later with Italy. A bomb ed ra il r oa d tr a ck .

Hitler after h i s victor i es on the continent and after g iv i ng his troo p s some rest sought to end the war quickly by att a cking the Br i tish Isles. Thus the British abandoned by every a lly, but inspired under the leadership of W i nston Churchill, bega n its program of blood, sweat and te a rs. Then came the a lmost con ti nued bombing of London and other industrial centers in their efforts to reduce the English resis ta nce. But British production increased and the people were more determined than ever to fight to the bitter end. The British fleet was put to service a round the clock and i n a s hort tim e had destroyed the Italian N a vy and h a d com p lete control of th e Mediterr a ne a n by their Navy , the British success was a ssured. They captured about 40,000 Italians when B a rdi a fell to them a nd the fall of that city a dded another 30, 00 0. The British fighting in Western Europe was almost entirely by ai r, however in September 1940 the British Comm a ndoes raided Sp i tzbergen, struck a t German held Lofoten Isl a nds off Norway, caus ing severe damage and returning with prisoners. The Germ a n pre-occupation of North Africa , the B a lk a ns, Crete and then Russi a caused a decline on the Nazi air raids over Brit a in, and with more and better Brit i sh defense a gainst night bombing, r a ids bec a me much more costly to the Nazis. The first three months of 1940 public opinion in the United St a tes was strongly on the s i de of the All i es but America seemed far removed from the conflict. Germany tried by every means at her comm a nd to cut the supply lines to Britain from C a nad a a nd the United St a tes, and the attacks on U. S. ships caused President Roosevelt to order the N a vy to patrol the Western A tl a ntic and announce the location of any subm a r i nes or ax is r a iders s i ghted, then the Nazis retaliated w i th further att a cks on U . S. sh i pping. The U. S. Navy wa s ordered to shoot on sight any A x is vess e ls of war seen in w a ters important to American safety . And the U. S. began to arm for its own defense and for the first time in its history conscription w·as adopted in peacetime. 115 • The British by successful campaigns in Liby a in r a J')id succ e ssion took Tobruk, Derna, Beng az i a.nd by February 1941 the ltrllian outpost at El Agheila. Germ a n mechanized units under General Rommel were disp a tched to Afric a to as sist the Italians and late in March took offensive from the British and drove them b u ck to Solum a cross the border into Egypt and by American made tanks and nl a nes in November the British once a g rlin went on the march under General Montgomery r a pidly advancing · to Capu zz o and Gambut and pushed on B c1rdia. On November 7th U . S . troops assisted by the British Navy and Air forces m a de l a ndings on Vichy French territory at Algiers, Oran and the coast of Morocco A ir droznes in its vicinity soon capitulated. Spurning the protests of Vichy Fr c1nce, the Allies affected agreements with General Giraud, later to broaden to include the free French followers of General DeG a ulle for a de facto Government in the French colonies, with French participation in the drive against the Na z is . From the e a st the British Army under General Montgomery continued its a ctive pursuit of General Rommel's troops and on January 23, 1943 moved into Tripoli, completing a 120(, mile drive from El A lamein in e x actly three months. The fleeing Afric a Corps entered Tunisia , where the eastward pressure of the Allied troops under General Eisenhower combined to pen the Nazis between centr a l Tunisia and the sea. A x is resistance crumpled in May. The Allies mopped up the area, .t a king 175,000 prisoners. The western front war until 1944 was e x clusively a n air war, with e x ce p tion, the only ground action was the large scale commando R a ids of August 19 , 1942 on Dieppe, France by British, United States, C a nadian a nd fighting French units. Troops participating in this reconnaissance in force retired after m a king observations and destroying German military installations and equi p ment in prep a r a tion for an eventual invasion of Western Europe. A llied losses were severe, but many valuable lessons were learned in landing and Aeri a l tactics. In mid-May the Allies attained supremacy in the air with 600 and 1,000 plane att a cks on Cologne a nd Essen. These big plane raids continued and were augmented in August by the U. S . Flying Fortresses and by March 1943 Allied raids were credited with the distruction of 2 ,000 Germ a n factories, reducing German steel production and also gre a tly reduced the output of coal.

A switch type of railroad engine taken in yards at Rosenheim, Germany. 117 Berlin experienced its first air raid by British Bombers on December 7, 1941 while J a panese were attacking Pearl Harbor. The Royal Air Force caught the Berlin Capital by surprise on January 16, 1943 and dropped its bombs without a single loss, a raid the following night however cost the British 22 planes. By January 20, 1943 night and day bombing of Berlin by British Bombers and U. S. Fortresses became routine. Daylight bombing was developed to such a degree that the bombers could fly un-escorted to their targets, and beat off the enemy fighters going and returning. By Ap ril 1943 every important industrial center in the Ruhr region had been visited by at least one major a ir attack. The bomb tonnage rose steadily from 8,000 tons dropped in March to 15,000 tons in June . On May 16, 1943 the British with 19 Lancasters flying at tree top levels blasted the Mohne and Eder Dams, which provided a l a rg e portion of the p ower to the Ruhr. On June 5, 1940 a n air attack of unprecedented intensity and distructive power w as launched , thon sa nds of p ara troops were dropped inside France to di s rupt communications a few hours before the m a in blow fell. Thousands of heavy and medium bombers of June 6, 1944, thousands upon thous a nds of troops, supported by terrific nav a l and air forces swept forward on the Cherbourg peninsular below the port of Cherbourg. Four thous a nd ships and several thousand smaller cr a ft took part in the landing, and except for German E boat attacks, were virtually unmolested, the first 24 hours of the invasion, between 15,000 and 20,000 tons of bombs were dropped by more than 11,000 planes, the greatest aerial invasion in the air, less than 100 German planes appeared over the beachhead. The invasion forces under the command of General Eisenhower and General Montgomery, ground commander, quickly secured the beaches a nd on June 7 cleared of all enemy forces. Massive air attacks continued with the British and American pilots flying 27,000 missions in a little over 48 hours with a loss of 289 planes. The American Army struck toward Cherbourg and the British toward Caen, by June 11 the Allies held a 60 mile beachhead. Cherbourg was occupied by A merican troops on June 26. The British broke into Caen on July 8 . Troops under General Bradley broke out across the Cherbourg peninsular behind a heavy aerial assault and captured St. Lo and broke out of Normandy with the capture of Avranches, the thousands of Germans thus by passed by the Americans were trapped, and 60,000 prisoners were captured. United States losses in the first 10 days of the invasion numbered 3,283 killed and 12,000 wounded. On August 7, following an intensive saturation bombing assault by 1,000 Lancasters and Halifa x es , the Canadians first Army, together with British troops, launched air offensive below Caen, driving down the Caen-Falaise road. American forces meanwhile moved into Brittany, capturing Rennes on August 4 and Nantes on August 10 and virtually clearing the Germans out of the Breton peninsular. Suicidal resistance at the ports of Lorient and Brest proved to be a long range German strategy to deprive the Allies of harbor facilities, and Germans fought on in these ports long after the war had been carried far to the east. The Americans sent a column eastward to capture the road center of Le Mans, as part of a great circling movement, other Americans drove northward toward Falaise. British and C a nadians drove southward to close a trap on the Germans. The 7th German Army began a retreat through the gap between the Americans and the British and Canadians. By mid August the American and British-Canadian forces had made contact, and although the Germans had succeeded in saving most of the 7th Army's armor from the Falaise trap, they lost 14,000 Germans as prisoners between August 8th and 20th and an estimated 100,000 were accounted for in the battle. Meantime on August 15, British, American and French troops with strong air and Naval support, landed at numerous points on the Southern 118 coast of France between Toulon and Nice, they met with little resistance until French troops reached Toulon. A merican troops took M a rseille, and struck rapidly northward to join the m a in army in the North. The advance up the Rhone Valley was cleared by French Forces of the interior. In the north the Americans crossed the Seine River on A ugust 21 above Paris while inside the Capital French Forces of the interior rose, for 4 8 hours the fa te of the Capital was a mystery. French Partisans announced the liberation of Paris on August 23rd, but on August 24 they announced that the Germans a fter requesting an armistice had returned with reinforceinents, threatening to destroy the city, an appeal was sent to the Allies for help, and American and French forces irmnediately launched a drive on the approaches to the city, and the French capital was liberated in August by American and French troops. The Allies pushed spearheads into Belgium in early September 3 advancing with remarkable speed, the 3rd American Army under General P a tton pushed through the Argonne and crossed the Moselle River, on September 7th after advancing more than 750 miles in 35 days, the Germans concentrated their forces on the Albert Canal. The British .forced; a crossing of the canal on September 8th and three days later British forces crossed into Holland. A llied troops, driving up from the south, captured Lyons in late August. A few days l a ter a junction was established with Allied Armies from the north and south and all of France to the west was liberated, with the e x ception of some of the seaports where the German garrisons held out. The Canadian A rmy cleared the Channel coast including Dieppe by early September. An estimated 400,000 Germans had been killed, captured or wounded. Late September an airborne a rmy was dropped behind the German lines at Eindhove, Nijmegen and A rnheim but failed to outflank the Seigfried Line. Early in October, American troops were successful in crossing into Germany near Aachen, situated on the road to Cologne. After a three weeks battle, the British beleagured garrison surrendered on October 21st. German resistance all along the front was stiffening, the Allied drive was stalled by bad weather and supply difficulties. In mid November the American 3rd Army launched a drive on Metz, quickly forced a crossing of the Moselle River a nd surrounded Metz itself. In the south the American 7th Army broke through the Belfort Gap and drove a wedge to Strasbourg, threatening the Germans Rhine defenses while the American 3rd Army swept beyond Metz and threatened to engulf the Saar industrial region. The American 9th Army pushed to the Roer River on the road to Cologne, but by early December the offensive had ground to halt. Two weeks later the Germans launched a large scale surprise counter offensive, with relatively strong air support, against the American First Army in the Ardennes, hitting the thinnest section of the Allied line, they drove a deep wedge, threatening Sedan and Liege, after three weeks the German counter offensive was checked and attacks were launched to wipe out the bulge forced into the Allied line. Later in December the tide again turned to the Allies. The Allies moved steadily toward the German Capital. On January 29, 1945 the U . S. 3rd Army moved into Germany from the A rdennes Bulge near Sberhausen. By February 7th the 3rd Army had entered Germany at ten different points. On March 8th the U. S. 3rd Army established a firm bridgehead on the east bank of the Rhine, near Remagen, indicating the first definite crack in German resistance. The 7th Army crossed the Rhine March 26th and the 15th Army on March 31st. The vital Ruhr Valley was encircled April 1st. By May 1st, virtu a lly all N az i resistance ceased, the Nazis surrendered on May 7, 1945 at Rheims. 119 FALORlA, ITALY , CORTINA, ITALY. VENICE, ITALY, THE ITALIAN CAMPAIGN OF 1943-1945: After occupying the Islands of Pantelleria and Lampedusa in May, 1943 the Allies invaded Sicily on July 9th. Conquest of the Islands was completed in a month. Invasion of Italy was begun by the British 8th Army which landed September 3rd between Reggio Calabria and Catona. The new Italian government under Marshall Badoglio accepted terms of unconditional surrender on September 8th. On September 9th the U. S. 5th Army stormed ashore at Salerno. Italy joined the Allies against the Nazis on September 16th . Naples was captured in October but a stalemate developed late in 1943 along a mountain line from Cassino to Ortona on the Adriatic. January 22, 1944 British and American troops landed at Anzio behind the German positions 30 miles west of Rome. American troops attacked Cassino to break through to the Anzio beachhead but failed. Troops landed at Anzio were sealed off and suffered heavy casualties in the ensueing four months. Polish troops captured Cassino while American, British and French forces pushed toward Rome. They joined the Allied A rmy at Anzio, the combined forces taking Rome on June 4th. The Germans fell back on a line from Pisa to Rimini September 22. The knockout blow was dealt in April, 1945 when the Allies broke into the Po Valley, Northern Italian cities fell in r api d succession. By April 29th, the U. S. 5th Army was in Milan. Fighting in Italy ended on May 2nd when the German High Command accepted Allied terms of unconditional surrender. THE F A R EAST AND THE PA CIFIC: During the summer and fall of 1941 tension in the far east steadily mounted. Japan first intervened in the struggle between Thai and French forces in Inda-China, in so doing she a cquired the privilege of basing an army in the Vichy French Colony. 120 On July 25th the U, S. froze all Japanese credits in the country and with Great Britain, promised to oppose Japan with arms if Thailand were invaded. There were other indications that the war which had been confined to Europe and Africa would I develop into a world conflict, Germany threatened to take control of the African bases and the fleet of Vichy France. When the U. S. and Britain failed to divorce Finland from the A.xis, Britain finally declared war on Finland, Hungary and Rwnania on December 7, however, this formality failed to bring on any military action, Of far greater consequence was the fact that Japan in further pursuing negotiations with the U. S. demanded that aid to China cease, embargos on exports of vital raw materials be lifted and that her right to control Oceania and the f1u east be respected The U. S. refused to meet these demands and while Japanese envoys were conducting further negotiations in Washington, several hundred carrier based Japanese planes struck a surprise blow against the U. S. Naval Base at Pearl Harbor, Honolulu on Sunday morning, December 7, 1941. The raiders neutralized U. S. air power on Oahu and succeeded in crippling the U. S. Pacific Fleet, sinking six warships and damaging several others with a total casualty list of 2,897 dead, 879 wounded and 26 missing. Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, Japan declared war on the U, S, and Britain, within three days Germany and Italy had declared war on the U. S. Almost simultaneous with the attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese launched an air attack on Luzon, the most important island of the Philippine group, After seizing control of the air, they quickly made landings at widely separated points on Luzon, isolating the U. S. and Philippino garrisons from outside support, American forces fell back to Manila then executed a planned retreat to Bataan Peninsular. The 40,000 American troops (mostly Philippinos) were outnumbered hr five to one, but staged a brilliant and costly resistance against the Japanese forces, which lasted for 100 days. The Bataan garrison ravaged by disease, its food and ammunition almost exhausted, surrendered on April 19, 1942, Some remnants of the garrison, however, managed to reach Corregidor, the islands fortress at the entrance to Manila Bay and held out there until May 7, 1942. General Douglas McArthur had been recalled from the Philippine command in March to become Supreme Commander of U.S. Forces in the Southwest Pacific. He was succeeded by General Jonathan Wainwright, who surrendered with his forces on B a taan. Japanese forces on the Asiatic mainland invaded Thailand also landing troops along the coast. A desperate attempt to thwart the invasion met with disaster when the battleship Prince of Wales and the Cruiser Repulse with an escort of two destroyers, sailed forth to attack a Japanese convoy off the coast and Japanese planes operating from newly acquired bases, pounded the warships as they attempted to escape, In less than an hour of violent air assualt, the battleship and cruiser were sunk, the first capital ships to be sunk by air power alone. The sinking of these ships facilitated the Japanese invasion of Malaya, both by land and by sea and by January 30, 1942 the Japanese had swept all the way to the strait of Jahore, which separates Singapore from the mainland. Singapore whose defenses had been constructed to meet attacks from the sea, fell in mid-February. The British base at Hong Kong had fallen to the Japanese on Christmas day, 1941. The loss of these two bases by the British left the Japs with undisputed naval supremacy in the western Pacific.. British, anticipating the impending disaster, rushed reinforcements to Burma in preparation for a counter-offensive to cut off the Jap forces fighting in the Malaya Peninsula. Aware of this danger, the Japs had cut across 1and captured the town of Tovoyand had occupied Moulmein by January 31st. The British threatened with encirclement, withdrew early in March and succeeded in escaping to the North while another British garrison attacked the Japanese flank. The Japs steadily drove the British up the Irrawaddy River Valley, while the British destroyed everything in their wake. The overpowering Jap offensive far to the north of the British-Chinese positions in Burma doomed the country to Japanese conquest, The British and Chinese 121 forces fought a classic retreat to India while the Japs quickly cut the Burma road, the last overland supply route to China and occupied Mandalay on May 1, 1942. The Jap victories had isolated China except for an air route over the Himalaya mountains. The British pushed down the coast toward the port of Akyab in an effort to eliminate a Jap base threatening India but failed, they fought within 25 miles of Akyab but being greatly outnumbered and threatened with encirclement, were forced to withdraw across the Indian frontier. In November, 1943, American trained Chinese forces launched a push from India into northern Burma to force a right of way for the Ledo of Brig. General Frank Merrill early in 1944 and a few weeks later the British troops, known as Wingates R a iders, were dropped by parachute behind the Jap lines in the vicinity of Myitkyina. The Jap supply lines - severed in several places, thus forcing them to retire and the threat to the United Nations supply lines were relieved. While a picked army of 20,000 Chinese troops crossed the Salween River from China, a group of Americans slipped through the Jap lines and after an epic 23 day march over torturous jungle trails, captured a Jap air field two miles from Myitkyina . Within a few days, gliders and transport planes landed Chinese reinforcements which cut off the retreat of the main Japanese force in their fiercest struggle during the war, thus far, the Japs suffered their worst defeat, five divisions of Jap forces were virtually destroyed, Throughout 1944 Northwest Burma witnessed bitter fighting completion of the Ledo-Burma supply route from India to China in January, 1945 and Chinese capture of Wanting in the same month opened the road to traffic. On May 3rd the British took Rangoon, this, virtually ending the Burma campaign. In less than six months after the outbreak of the war between Japan and the U. S. and Britain, China had been isolated from outside support with the blocking of the Burma Road. In the first phase of their offensive, the Japs occupied the railroad from Haugehow to Nanchang while other forces drove northward from Canton, the captured Chekiang Kiangsi province air bases after the famous Doolittle Raid on four Japanese cities April 18 in which American bombers took off from a carrier, bombed Japan, and landed on Chinese air fields. However, Chinese offensives regained two of the air fields and cleared the Japs out of 100 miles of railroad. The Japs in 1942 launched attacks along the upper Yangtze against Changsha and into Yunman province but none of these offensives achieved any notable success. Chinese air support was increased with the arrival of several American Liberators at Chinese airfields, which turned the tide in the next Jap campaign launched early in May, 1943 . Five Jap divisions drove into Hunan province, presumably to destroy the rice crop, and seize Changsha, but were turned back. American bombers opened a strong attack on Jap bases and communications along with a strong Chinese counter-offensive which by mid June drove the Japs back in disorder. It was rather quiet in China until in the spring of 1944, when the Japs launched a concerted attack to cut China in half by seizing the railroad from Peiping to Canton. They did seize the railroad from Peiping to Hankow while another strong force pushed westward toward Loyang and after three weeks had captured Changsha, capital of Hunan province and immediately drove along the Canton railroad. By December they had been successful in seizing the entire railroad and cutting China in half. They had captured all of the U. S. airfields in southwest China except one. The bases were destroyed by the Americans before being abandoned. At the height of the crisis, General Joseph W. Stillwell, U. S. Commander of the China- Burma-India Theatre was called to Washington, This theatre was then divided into two smaller theatres. Major General Albert Wedemeyer was made U. S. Chief in China and Lt. General Daniel Sultan was placed in charge of Burma-India. Late in 1944, Major General Patrick Hurley took over the duties of Ambassador to China, replacing Clarence Goss. The Chinese with allied assistance in 1944 launched a number of counter-offensives and had crossed into lndo-China. By summer of 1945 vir- 122 tually all U. S. airfields had been liberated and Jap coastal installations were being raided heavily by U. S. Army planes. A considerable portion of the coastal area in the Hong Kong, Shanghai and Foochow regions had been liberated by the time the Japanese surrendered.

CITY CHILDREN . 124 I I • I I I I' THE PACIFIC CAMPAIGN: Japan exploited the strategic advantage that was gained by the surprise blow dealt out to the U. S. Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor, to sever communications between Hawaii and the Philippines and thus isolate the latter. They struck at Guam and Wake Islands. Guam was virtually unfortified, and had a garrison of only 400 naval men and 155 U. S. Marines. Guam was subjected to a dive bombing attack on December 8th 1941. Jap troops landed two days later and overcame the garrison within 48 hours. Wake Island which was a little better fortified, held out for twelve days against Jap attack. The Japanese next invaded the southernmost Philippine Island of Mindanao, and occupied the port of Davao on December 20th securing a jump off base for the conquest of the East Indies. The Japs landed in Sarawak on the northwestern coast of Borneo on December 17th and invaded Tarakan Island off the east coast of Bomeo and Celibes Islands on January 23, 1942. New Guinea and the Bismarck Archipelago were invaded on January 23rd . Rabaul, New Britain and Kavieng, New Irland were occupied, threatening the United Nations supply lines to Java and placing the Japanese within striking distance of Australia. The Jap conquest was stopped momentarily when a 100 ship convoy, moving through Macassar Strait, was badly mauled by Dutch and American planes and warships late in January, 1942. The Japs strengthened their hold on Macassar Strait by more landings on Borneo and Celebes, and at the same time occupied the island of Amboina to secure control over Moluccas Strait, gateway to northern New Guinea. They also landed 700 Paratroops at Palembang on Sumatra and captured the rich oil center before it was destroyed. The air invaders were annihilated, but the following day, February 15th, the Japs invaded southern Sumatra, closing in on Java from all directions, they occupied Timar, cutting the supply route to Java and invaded Bali. All available Dutch, American, British and Australian naval forces were concentrated in the Java Sea to challenge the impending invasion of Java. The Jap invasion fleet was sighted on February 27 and in the ensuing battle ,.of n.ival forces, the Allied Fleet was trapped and virtually annihilated . The Japs began their invasion on February 28th and over ran the island in a bitter ten days fight. This gave Japan undisputed control of the entire Malenisian area. They landed large forces on the northeast coast of New Guinea on March 8, 1942 and at Finschafen March 10th. Seeking to impede the menacing Jap advance, an American Naval task force raided Japanese bases in the Gilbert and Marshall Islands, causing substantial losses and damage. This was followed by similar raids on Wake February 24th and on Marcus Island March 4th . E a rly in March the Japs began massing transport and combat ships 125 at Lae and Solamaua, New Guinea, in preparation for a new strike to the south. The concentration was raided by U. S. land based and carrier based planes which sunk or damaged more than 20 Jap ships and delayed Jap preparations for further advances. But early in May, the Japs having assembled a huge invasion fleet, set out for an invasion of New Caledonia or the northeast coast of Australia. The fleet was sighted May 4th and the Naval engagement of the Coral Sea ensued. From May 4th to May 9th, United Nations planes pounded the invasion fleet relentlessly and when finally the Japs fled, they had suffered their worst naval defeat of the war, 17 Jap ships were sunk, and 20 damaged, including two carriers and seven cruisers, American losses were comparatively minor, one air craft carrier (Lexington) sunk, one destroyer and one tanker. The battle was unprecedented in that the entire action was waged by planes, the opposing warships never sighting each other. Undeterred by their defeat in the Coral Sea, the Japs early in June 1942 attempted an ambitious campaign aimed ultimately at the occupation of Pearl Harbor, {which could very easily have been accomplished on December 7, 1941, had they known the extent of the damage wrought on that day). They aimed to knock the U. S. fleet out of the central Pacific. A fleet of 80 Jap ships, including troop transports struck at Midway Islands, while a diversionary thrust was aimed at the Aleutian Islands. The Midway bound force was sighted May 3rd and for three days it was attacked by Fortresses, Dive Bombers, and Torpedo Planes based on Midway and pursued by carrier based planes as it fled northward, of this invasion fleet, 4 aircraft carriers, two heavy cruisers and three destroyers were known to have been sunk and ,damase i was inflicted to three battleships, one light cruiser, and several destroyers and transports. The U. S. Aircraft Carrier Yorktown and the Destroyer Hammann were sunk. The Jap diversionary fleet which staged an attack on the Aleutian Islands achieved better success. After bombing Dutch Harbor and Fort Mears, Unalaska Island June 3rd and 4th the Japs on June 7th occupied Kiska Island, 650 miles from Dutch Harbor . . In the spring of 1943, American troops landed on Attu and later on Agattu which subsequently was abandoned. The U. S. troops occupied the Andreanof Islands in September 1942. Repeated U. S. Air attacks through almost impenetrable fog, hampered Jap construction on Kiska and Attu, and in the spring of 1943, American troops landed on Attu, occupying it on May 29th. The Japs withdrew in July and August. Disturbed by the threat of Japanese attacks on Australia, New Hebrides and New Caledonia from their bases in the Solomon Islands, the Allies undertook their first major offensive of the war, on August 7, 1942. American Marines supported by American and Australian warships landed on Tulage, Gavutu and Guadalcanal Islands. The Japs on Tulage and Gavutu retreated to caves and resisted to the end, the fighting lasting one day and the following day the Marines occupied the neighboring islands of Makambo and Tanambogo. The landing on Guadalcanal was made near an air field, which was under control the second day, but the operation was menaced by a Japanese naval force of heavy cruisers and destroyers which attempted to attack the American invasion fleet the night of August 8th. The Japs were driven off but in the course of the battle the Australian warship Canberra was sunk along with the American heavy cruisers Quincy, Astoria and Vincennes. The Japs constantly reinforced their troops on Guadalcanal at night and hung tenaciously to their positions. The turning point for the control of Guadalcanal came in November when the Japs sent a relatively strong naval force toward the islands, the fleet was intercepted, and in the ensuing battle off Savo Island, 28 Japanese ships were sunk, it was in February 1943 that all Jap resistance on Guadalcanal ceased. The American Marines made simultaneous landings on New Georgia and Northern New Guinea. The vital airport at Munda, New Georgia was seized. Early in November Marines invaded Bougainville Island in the Solomons in an aim for the powerhouse at Rabaul, New Britain. The offensive aimed ultimately at the Philippines, and to drive 126 the Japanese out of the Central Pacific, began in earnest in late Noverrilier, 1943. With the invasion of Makin and Tarawa in the Gilbert Islands which were conquered after a costly and bloody battle. The island hopping technique was resumed in January, 1944 with the invasion of Kwajalein in the Marshall Islands. A month later American M a rines and army troops invaded Eniwetok, while a naval task force neutralized the Japanese naval base at Truk. Early in March 1944, American troops invaded the Admiralty Islands, isolating remnants of Jap troops still holding out on New Britain and in the Solomons. On March 29th the U. S. Navy, then supreme in the Pacific staged one of its greatest air and surface attacks in its history against the Jap bases in Pal a u Islands the Jap navy refused to challenge the attack and every Jap base was virtually blanketed as a result, in the central Pacific. In June, Marines and Army troops invaded Saipan in the Marianas Islands, after a two day bombardment and a titanic air battle in which more than 300 Jap planes were destroyed, Guam and Tinian were conquered a month later, the island hopping to the Philippines was completed in September with the invasion of Palau and Morotai. October 20th , American troops under the command of General Douglas McArthur landed on the east coast of Leyte Island in central Philippines. The landing followed a seven day aerial assualt on Formosa , A great naval battle ensued when the Japs, risking their fleet for the first time in two years, sent three naval forces to challenge the invasion of Leyte. In the engagem e nts fought in the narrow waters around Leyte and off the north coast of Luzon, units of the American 3rd and 7th Fleets sank two Jap battleships, four carriers, nine cruisers, three Flotilla leaders, and six destroyers and probably sank a battleship, five cruisers and ten destroyers. Organized resistance ended on Leyte in December. On January 10, 1945, American troops invaded Luzon and rapidly pushed inward . In July, General McArthur announced the entire liberation of the Philippines The real vampire on Japan's Jugular vein proved to be the submarine, day in and day out it chewed its w a y with relentless regularity, the effects of these attacks, together with those of the Superfortresses were manifold, they led to a general weakening of the Jap effort, restricted delivery of raw material to Japan , and increased the number of J a panese plants into idleness, and instrumental in the softening up process before eventual inv as ion of Japan proper. On August 5, 1945, the Un i ted States dropped their first Ptomic Bomb on Hiroshima, this the most deadly weapon ever invented by m a n, almost completely obliter a ted the entire city of appro x imately 18 0,000 inh a bitants, this bomb was set to explode above the surface of the ground, and not only caused havoc from the force of the e x plosion, but the intense heat set up from the explosion of the atom, caused everything to burn that was inflamable, even the clothes were burned from the backs of many of its people. The second Atomic Bomb which was dropped on Nagasak a was set to e x plode on concussion and while it was dev a statingly destructive, it did not accomplish the widespread damage and destrution of Hiroshima. On August 10, Japan a nnounced the a cceptance of the Potsdam Declaration, with the provision that the Emporer be allowed to retain his prerogatives. The Allies a greed to the provisio, stipulating, however, that the Emporer act in obedience to a Supreme Allied Commander. To this post General Douglas Mc- Arthur w a s appointed on Pugust 14, the day ending the hostilities of World War II. Official surrender terms were signed between the Allies and J a pan aboard the U. S. Battleship Missouri on September 2, 1945. U. S. Occupational forces had already landed on J apa n on August 28th. Let it finally be said that the Japs failed, because Germ a ny failed. Japan predicted the assumption of victory on a Germany victory and planned her grand strategy on that a ssumption. Japan and Germ a ny failed secondly because they could not keep pace with Allied production. They started the war with numerical superiority in practically every field of Army, Navy and Aerial equipment, and vastly increased that superiority in the early months of _ the war. 127 GUADALCANAL 128 GUADALCANAL _.. ., .

The J a ps failed finally, because their high comm a nd failed. Japanese strategy was based on the assumption that the United States could be surprised and beaten before we could arm ourselves to fight b a ck effectively, they together with Germany mad.e th_e mistak~ of believing their own propaganda, that there was internal dissentlon _in the Umted C::tates and that Americans were peace loving and decad e nt, and that it would take ;ears ~o switch from lu x ury production to war output. The ~a~a_nese st~ategists ~nd technicians did not understand until it was too late the potentialities of a ir war. Like the Germans, they thought of air power in terms of an attack weapon, t_o be _used a s support for naval and ground armies. Little did they think of the machine hke precision with which the United States was capable in a war emergency a nd th e speed and co-operation of the nation with its ar med forces. 1AP ANESE SURRENDER CEREMONY .

It's the age of the belt Manly shoulders must be unhampered by straps; only the patient diaphragm is to be subjected to a harsfesS. 60 passes another useful device, sacrificed to fastidiousness. We used to eat mashed potato with a knife till someone with supercilious manners came along and told us. the fork was the proper utensil for that important duty. Formerly people poured out their hot coffee into saucers, "blew" it cold and then drank It from saucers, all unconscious of the terrible impropriety involved. Nor was it formerly considered an indication of boorish origin for one to sip tea from a spoon. Oh, these changing times! Suspenders gone the way of the bicycle and the crocheted necktie! Is no one bold enough to do them reverence? Fashion is a tyrant It takes no cognizance of man's various shapes—his embonpoint, his fullness or deficiency of girth—it merely issues a flat and expects all to obey. The Jtime is opportune for a new declaration of independence. Let every man who prefers suspenders to a belt buy a pair forthwith and wear it in defiance of the world.

Not long ago a celebrated Jewish rabbi insisted that the great f p i 0 y of the 'state, after their duties explorer was a Jew, and now comes a member of the Royal Geographical society with the claim that Columbus was a Spaniard and not an Italian. veil of mystery that has for four centuries enshrouded the cradle of Columbus has at last been torn aside to reveal him without doubt or argument as a Spaniard. Dr. Horta says that the Italian lineage of the discoverer was accepted because there was no "authentic, respectable and authorised historic documents" to prove to the contrary, on tne other hand, the Spanish historian says the only accepted proof of the Italian birth of Columbus was his own statement that he was born, in Genoa. [By Gurd M . Hayes.] There is every reason to believe that the next legislature will enact a civil service law for all state departments and that an effort will be made to eliminate politics to a large exetnt in determining the class of men and women who will transact the business of the commonwealth. Ever since he came i;. "o office two years ago Governor Osborn has stood for a civil service law for all state employes} in recognition of meritious service. "Every employe in the state should be under civil service rules that are honestly made and honestly enforced," said the governor. "However, I am not speaking of a political service that works solely to the advantage of the parties. There is no reason why competent help in the emhave been learned well, should be replaced for merely political reasons, than there is that business firms should engage men for a short period, The Spanish scientist says that thettoHurn them loose after that time has been served." In his ex-augural message the retiring chief executive will advocate the passage of a civil service law, and the newly elected governor, Woodbridge N . Ferris says that he is heartily in favor of such a measure, and many members of tlie legislature are already, pledged to support such a bill. —Some of the departments fctave al- An Englishman in Shanghai was twitting the eldest son of Dr. Sun Yatsen about his father's cosmopolitanism. "Nobody knowB for certain where your father was born," he said. "Canton claims him and so does Honolulu. Before the revolution he bad not been here in China for man£ years. The English port of Hongkong was tbe nearest he ever approached. I don't see how your father can call himself a Chinaman, and in fact, i-kemploye found to be incompetent as don't know what to call hira." "Part of what you say Is true," answered the son 6¾ the famous patriot.

State TreasureT-elect John W. Haarer, has already announced that he will appoint the present cashier in the treasury department to the deputyship the first of the year, while the chief clerk will be advanced to cashier and so on. Auditor General 0. B. Fuller has paid more attention to efficiency than political pull, while Sec-~ retary of State Frederick C. Martindale has many emjloyes in his department whose political activities ceased years ago. Martindale s&ys that a civil service law would not cause him to 1 make a single change in Ills office, as he declares he would discnarge a state dreds of blind children in the state Who are unable to gain admission owing to the limited facilities ot the imstitution, At a recent Besslon of the legislature a law was enacted requiring compulsory education for all blind children in the state, and Superintendent Holmes points to this as a sufficient" reason why sufficient money should be appropriated to care fo rthose who are being neglected at present. It IS pointed out that in many cases the parents of these children are unable, becaiifie of adverse financial conditions, to educate them in private schools, and as a result they grow up and become objects of charity, where they might be developed into self supporting citizens had they received the advantage afforded at the Michigan School for the • Blind. The educational course at the Michigan School for the Blind compares favorably with the advantages afforded in regular grammar and high schools of the state, and in adition, each pupil is taught some trade. Superintendent Holmes wants to add 40 acres to the school property in order that a course in agriculture may be added to the curriculum. From observation i n other states he has learned that agriculture is a pursuit1 that may be followed to considerable advantage by blind persons, and he - says that polltry arising is another industry favorable to those who have lost their sight The legislature has always dealt generously with the School for the Blind and there is every reason to believe that the arguments of Superintendent Holmes will carry considerable weight at the coming session. A Warm E+ec^lon. There is sure to be a wkrm, contset over the election of ^secretary of the senate to succeed E. V . Chilson, who has announced his retirement after serving in that capacity for aXnumber of essions past Chilson says that his business demands all his time ami he is forced to drop out of politics temporarily. The secretaryship of the senate is worth $10 per day and carries with it considerable political prestige. Consequently it is much sought-after and friends of the respective candidates are already soliciting the support of the various members of the upper house. Dennis E .

Shepard, assistant to the president of the Missouri Pacific railroad Quickly as he would turn a noor worker out of a private enterprise. For a man to run for office on a platform that he is to abolish that igan politics, but that is what Augustus C. Carton, secretary of the public doman commission, and land commissioner- elect, promised the people of the state, and he proposes to make good his pre-election pledge if the legislature will assist him in the proposition.

Under the statute creating the public domain commission, its/members are composed 0 fthe board of state auditors, including the secretary of state, state treasurer and commissioner of the land office, together with one reagent of the University, one member of the state agricultural board and one member of the board of control of the Michigan College of Mines. Secretary Carton is an enthusiastic adherent of the "back to the soil" movement and has done mucST during the two years that he has been con* lected with the public domain commission, to encourage immigration and induce farmers from other states to take up tracts o f land in the northern counties of the state. To preserve the natural resources of the state, to assist in the development of the agricultural lands of Michigan and $0 encourage immigration, are among the few things that the commision has endeavored to accomplish. ^ Carton believes that the time has arrived when very little state land will be sold in Michigan and believes that the work of the land commission Is practically finished. Tb he connumber of years secretary of the re-, publican state central committee is being prominently mentioned for tfye position. Alward was secretary of the senate for a great many years previous to Chilson's election and it is thought that his experience will militate in his favor. .During the last primary campaign Alward was defeated for the republican nomination for con gress in the eleventh district.

Taft Escapes Big Explosion. A few moments after President Taft^ and his party entered the National theater, in Panama, where they were guests at a Christmas ball given by President Porras, a terrific explosion wrecked a kiosk in Central avenue, the town's principal street. The president had Just passed that way and the firemen and police guard were still on duty. Investigation showed that the explosion was caused by dynamite. One man was seriously hurt and many persons slightly injured. The president and those with him smilingly attempted to belittle the incident, saying that they believed the explosion had no connection with the presence of President Taft Nevertheless a rigid investigation was begun by the authorities at the command of President Porras immediately after the cause of the disturbance became, known. Seven Important Hearings Scheduled for Session After Holidays. An investigation possibly unprecedented in the history of the house will be ushered in when congress reassembles in January. Members of the house ^ 1 divide their attention among seven distinct investigations scheduled to begin immediately after the holidays. They are: Inquiry into the so-called money trust; hearings before the ways and means committee preliminary to tariff revision by the next congress; the probe into the New^Haven-Grand Trunk railroad situation in New England; the judiciary committee's hearings on general trust legislation; the inquiry into the ramifications, of the so-called foreign and domestic shipping trust by the merchant marine committee; the Glass sub-committee's investigation incident to the framing of a currency bill, and the inquisition into the affairs of the office ot superintendent of insurance in the District of Columbia. The insurance inquiry will begin Dec. 26, with the District of Columbia commissioners on the witness stand. These committees will endeavor to complete their work by the end of tho session. It is estimated that the investigations will cost more than $100,- 000. GENERAL MARKETS.

Agatha Redmond, opera singer, starting for an auto drive In New York, finds a stranger sent *as her chauffeur. She is\ annoyed, but-he remains. Leaving the car, she goes into the park to read the will of an old friend of her mother, who has left her property. There she is accosted by a stranger^ who follows her tp the auto, climbs in and chloroforms her. James Hambleton of Lynn, Mass., member of an old New England family, decides he needs a holiday. He goes to New York and there witnesses the abduction of Agatha Redmond. Hambleton sees Agatha forcibly taken aboard a yacht. C H A P T E R 111.—Continued. On the instant his brain became active again. It did not take long, as a matter of fact, to find the car; though when he stumbled on it, turned about and neatly stowed away close beside the partitioning wall, he gave a start It was such a tangible evidence of what had threatened to grow vague^ Ihe yacht down the river and into the and unreal on his hands. He squeezed himself into the narrow space between it and, the wall, finally thruBting his head under the curtains of the ton-' neau. It was high and dry, empty as last year's cockleshell. Not a sign of life, not a loose object of any kind except a filmy thing which Hambleton found himself observing thoughtfully. At last he picked it up—a long, mist-like veil. He spread it out, held it gingerly between a thumb and finger of each hand, and continued to look at it abstractedly. Part of it was clean ana wnole, dalnfy as only a bit of woman's finery can be; but one end of it was torn and twisted and stretched out of all semblance to itself. Moreover, it was dirty, as if it had been ground under a muddy heel. It was; in its way,, a shrieking evidence of violence, of unrighteous struggle, Hambleton folded the scarf carefully, with its edges together, and put it in his pocket. Jimmy's actions from this time on had an incentive and a spirit that had before been lacking. He noted again the number of the car, arid returned to the edge of the dock to observe the yacht. She had steamed up river a little way for some reafcon known only to herself, and was now turning very slowly. She was but faintly lighted and would pass for some pleasure craft just coming home. But Jim knew better. He could, at last, put two and two together. He would follow the Face-yindeed, he could not help following it. In him had begun that divine experience of youth—of youth essentially, whether it come in early years or late —of being carried off his feet by a spirit not himself. He ran like a young athlete down the dock to the nearest workman, evolving schemes as he went. The dock-hand apathetically trundled a small keg from one pile of freight to another, wiped his hands on his trousers, took a dry pipe out of his pocket, and looked vacantly up the river before he replied to Hambleton's question. "Queer name—Jene Dark they call her." It was like pulling teeth to get information out of him, but Jim applied the forceps. r thing in the world. You ta%e this money and be sure to get the message "to Mr. Van Camp, will you? A i l right. Now tell me where i can flrftf a tug-boat or a steam launch, quick.** "O'Leary, down at pier X—2—0 has launches and everything else. ,AU right, my son, Aleck Van Camp,- a | the Laramie. But you be good and don't drown yourself." This last injunction, word for word in the manner of the pert Edith, touched Jimmy's humor. He laughed ringingly. His spirit was like a chime of belli on a week-day. The hour which followed was one that James Hambleton found it difficult to recall afterward, with any degree of coherence; but at the time his movements were mathematically accurate, swift, effective. He got aboard a little* steam tug and followed ijiarbor. As she stood out into the roads and bega^n to increase her speed, he directed the captain of the tug to steam forward and make as if to cross her bows. This would make the pilot of the yacht angry, but he would be forced to slow down a trifle. Jim watched long enough to see the success of his maneuver, then went down into the cuddy which served as a cabin, took off his clothes, and looked to the fastenings of his money belt. Then he watched his chance, and when the tug was pretty nearly in the path of the yacht, he crept to the stern'and dropped overboard. river for two weeks or more, possibly lesffj belonged Tb~ fort^a^parts; no one thereaboutsiknew who, its owner was; nor its captain; nor its purpose in the harbor of New York. At last, quite gratuitously, the man volunteered a personal opinion. "Slippery boat in a gale—wouldn't trust her." Hambleton walked smartly back, taking a look both at the yacht and the motor-car as he went. The yacht's nose pointed toward the Jersey shore; the car was creeping out of the dock. As he overtook the machine, he saw that It was in the hands of a mechanic in overalls and jumper. In answer .4 to Hambleton's question as to the owner of the car, the mechanic told him pleasantly to go to the devil, and for once the sight of a coin failed to produce any perceptible effect. But the major-general, waiting half a block away, was still in the humor of giving fatherly advice. He welcomed , Jim heartily. r r h m i r i r ^ i e - T - a i n ' t got no use for. 'Ow'd you'make out?""™ c "Well enough, for a l l present purposes. Can you undertake to do a job 1 for me?" / ~ "If It ain't nothing I'd hfcve to ar- V f e s t you for, I might consider it," he ctiUdkled. '•I want you to go to the JLaramie Club and tell Aleck Van Camp—got the name?—*that Hambleton has. gone off on the Jeanne D'Arc and may not be back for some time; and he is to loolc after the J5ea ,Cf«U/' h ;,'|*oltf qsv young man; you're uo£ going todfc a t i i t t ^ iOU^ o{ reason, as one might say#* ' , . '•. ^.,: ' . "Oh, no. n o t a t a l l ; most reasonable C H A P T E R IV. Mr. Van Camp Makes a Call. Aleck Van damp turned from the clerk's desk, rather relieved to find that Hambleton had* not yet made his appearance. Aleck had an errand on his mind, and he reflected that J i m was apt to be impetuouB and reluctant to await another man's convenience; at least, Jim wouldn't perceive that another man's convenience needed to be waited for; and Aleck had no mind to announce this errand from the housetops. It was not a business _that pertained, directly, either to the Sea Gull or to the coming cruise. He made an uncommonly-careful, toilet, discarding two neckties before the operation was finished. When all was done^the cravat presented a stuffe(larid warped appearance which was^fiot at all satisfying, even to 's uncritical eye; but the tie was the last of his supply and was, perhaps, slightly better than none at all.: Dinner at the club was usually a dull affair, and to Mr. Van Camp, on this Monday night, it seemed more stupid than ever. The club had been organized in the spirit of the English clubs, with the unwritten by-law of absolute and inviolable privacy for the individual. No wild or woolly manners ever entered those decorous precincts. No slipping on the shoulder, no hailfellow greetings, no chance dinner companionship ever dispelled the aw ful penumbra of privacy that surrounded even the humblest member. A 'man's eating and drinking, his cornon hie second day in London as he had ever been in Lynn; or he would go from a friend'B week end houseparty, where the habits of a Sybarite were forced on him, to a camp in the woods and pilot-bread fare, with an equal smoothness of temper and enjoyment. Since luxury made no impression on him, and hardship never blunted his own ideals of politeness or pleasure, no one ever knew which life he preferred. Choosing to walk fifteen or twenty squares to the Archangel apartment house, his destination, Van Camp looked about him, on this night of his arrival, with slightly quickened perceptions. He cast a mildly appreciative eye toward the picture disclosed here and there by the glancing lights, the chiaroscuro of the intersecting streets, the constantly changing vistas. For an unimpressionable man, he was rather wrought upon. Nevertheless, he entered the charming apartment whither he was. bound with5 the detached and composed manner which society regards as becoming. A maid with a foreign accent greeted him Yes, Mademoiselle Reynier was at home; Mr. Van Camp would find her in the drawing-room. The stiff and unrelaxed manner with whicn Mr. Van Camp bowed to Miss Reynier a moment later was not at all indicative of the fairly%e^pectable fever within his Scotch breast. Miss Reynier herself was pretty enough to cause quickenedTu!§BW-She was of ing or going, his living or dying, were The yacht had been lying out in ihe-f matters only for ^lub statistics, not for.personal inquiry or notice. The result of this habitual attitude on the part of the members of the club and its servants was an atmosphere ' in which a cataleptic fit would scarcely warrant unofficial interference; much less would merely mawkish of absent-minded behavior attract attention. That was the function of the club—to provide sanctuary for personal whims and idiosyncrasies; of course, always within the boundaries of the code. / On the evening in question Mr. Van Camp did not actually become silly, but his manner lacked the poise and seriousness which sophisticated men are wont to bring to the important event-of the day. He was as near being nervous as a Scotch-American Van Camp could be; and at the same time an unwonted flow of life and warmth in his cool veins. He went so far as to make a .remark to the waiter which he meant for an affable joke, and. then wanted to kick the fellow for taking it so solemnly. "You mind yourself, George, or they'll make you abbot of this monastery yetV said Aleck, as George helped him on with his evening coat, "Yes-, sir, thank you, sir," said George. . ~ He left word at the office that in case any one called he was to be informed that Mr, Vannit (C amp would return to the club for/the night; theiL in his silk hat and generally shining togs, he set forth to make a call. l i e was, no stranger to New Yorfc and usually he . took h|s cities, as "they dune, with a matterof-fact noncha* lance. He would be sa much i t borne noble height, evidently a woman of the world. She gave Mr. Van Camp her hand in a greeting mingled of European daintiness and American frankness. Her vitality and abounding interest in life were manifest. "Ah, bu't you are very late. This is how you become smart all at once in your New York atmosphere! But pray be seated; and here are cigarettes, if you will. No? Very well; but tell me; has that amorphous gill-slit—or, no, the branchial lamella—has it behaved itself and proved to be the avenue which shall lead you to fame?" Mr. Van Camp stood silent through this flippant badinage, and calmly waited until Miss Reynier had settled herself. Then he thoughtfully turned the chair offered him so as to command a slightly better view of the corner where she sat, leaning against -the old-rose cushions. Finally, taking his own time, he touched off her greeting with. his_precise drawl. "I'm not smart, as you call it, even in New York, though I try to be." His eyes twinkled and his teeth gleamed in his wide smile. "If I were smart, I'd pass by your error in scientific nomenclature, but really I ought not to do it. If one can not be exact—" "That's just what I say. If one can not be exact, why talk at all?" Miss Reynier caught it up with high glee. She had a foreign accent, and an occasional twist of words which proved her to be neither American nor Englishwoman. "That's my principle,"! she insisted. "Leave other people in undisturbed possession of their hobbies, especially in conversation, and don't say anything i f you can't say what you mean. But then, you won't talk about your hobby; and if I have no* one to inform me, how can I be exact? But I'm the meekest person alive; I'm so ready to learn." Mr. Van Camp surveyed first the bantering, alluring eyes, then turned his gaze upon the sofa luxuries about them. "Are you ready to turn this bijou dream into a laboratory smelling of alcohol and fish? Are you willing to spend hours wading in mudbanks after specimens, or scratching in the sand under the broiling sun? Science does not consult comfort." * Miss Reynier's expression of quizzical teasing changed to one of rather thoughtful inquiry, as i f she were estimating the man behind the scientist. Van Camp was one of the lean, angular type; like Jim Hambleton. He was also every manly and wholesome, but even in his conventional evening clothes there was something about him that was unconventional—a protesting, untamed element of character that reslsteq'alHnileB except those prescribed by itself. He puzzled her now, as he had often puzzled her before; but if she made fun of his hobbies, she had no mind to make fun of the man himself. A cheerful, intelligent smile Anally ended her'contemplating moment. "Oh; ho; no\d!ggihg In the jsand for me. I l l take what science I get in another way—put up in predig^sted packages or bottled—any way but the fishy way. But please don't give me up. You shed a good deal of light on my mental darkness last winter in Egypt, and maybe I can improve still more." She suddenly tarned with Aleck, not waiting for replies >to-'her remarks. "It's good to see you again! And I like it here" better than in Egypt, don't you? Don't you think this apartment jolly?" The shaded lamps made a pretty light over Miss Reynier's- cream-colored silk flounces, over the delicate lace on her waist* over her glossy dark hair and spirited face. As Aleck contemplated that face, with its eager yet modest and womanly gaze, and the noble outline of her figure, he thought, with an unwonted flowering of imagination, that she was not unlike the Diana of classic days. " A domestic Diana," he added in his mind. "She may love the woods and freedom, but she will always return to the hearth." Aloud he said: "If you will permjlt me, Miss Reynier, I would like to inform you at once of the immediate object of my visit here. You must be well aware—" At this point Mr. Van Camp, who, true to his nature, was looking squarely in the face of his companion, of necessity allowed himself to be interrupted by Miss Reynier's .lifted hand. She was looking beyond her visitor through the drawing- room door. "Mr. Chamberlain and Mr. Lloyd- Jones," announced the servant. Aa Miss Reynier swept forward with outstretched hand to greet the newcomers, Van Camp fixed his eyes on his hostess with a m i n t e d expression of masculine rage and submission. Whether he thought her too cordial toward the other men or too cool toward himself, was not apparent. Presently he, too, was shaking hands with the visitors, who were evidently old.friends of the house. Madame Reynier, the aunt of mademoiselle, was summoned, and Van Camp was marooned o na sofa with Lloyd'Jones, who was just in from the West. Aleck found himself listening to an interminable talk about copper veins and silver veins, a new kind of assaying instrument, and the good luck attendant upon the opening of LlQyd- j Jones' new mine, the Liza Lu. Aleck was the essence of courtesy to everything except sham, and was able to indicate a mild interest in Mr. B^oyd-Jones' mining affairs. It was sufficient. Lloyd-Jones turned sidewrse on his end of the soft, sfjread out plump, gesticulating hands, and poured upon him an eloquent torrent of fact, speculation and high-spirited enthusiasm concerning Idaho in general and the future of the Liza^ L u in particular. More than that, by and by his cheerful, half-impudent manner threatened to turn poetic. "It's great, living in the open out there/' he went on, by this time including the whole company in his exordium. "You ride or tramp, or dig rock all day; and at night you He down under the clear stars, thankful for your blanket and your rock-bed and your camp-fire; and more than thankful if there's a bit of running water near byk It's a great life!" Miss Reynier listened to him with eyes that were alternately puzzled and appreciative. It was a discourse that would have seemed to her much more natural coming from Aleck Van Camp; but then, Mr. Van Camp really did the thing—that sort of thing— and he rarely talked about It. It had probably been Mr. Lloyd-Jones' first essay in the world out of reach of his valet and a club cocktail; and he was consequently impressed with hiB achievement. It was evident that Miss Reynier and the amateur miner were on friendly terms, though Aleck had not seen or heard of him before. He had hobnobbed with M r . ' Chamber- Iain in London and oik more than one scientific jaunt. The slightest flicker of jealous resentment gleamed in Aleck's eyes, but his speech was as slow and precise as ever. "I was just trying to convince Miss Reynier that outdoor life has its peculiar joys," he said. "I was even now suggesting that she should dig, though not for silver Does Mr. Lloyd-Jones' lucre seem more alluring than my little wriggly beasts, Miss Reynier?" If Aleck meant this speeeh for a trap to force the young woman to Indicate a preference, the trick failed, as it deserved to fail. "I couldn^t endure either your mines or your mudpuddles. You are both absurd, and I don't understand how you ever get recruits for your hobbies. But come over and see this new engraving, Mr. Jones; it's an oldfashioned picture of your beloved Rhine." Aleck, thus liberated from Mr. Lloyd-Jones and bis mines, imade his way across the room to M aflame Reynier. The cunning of o^d Adam was in his eye, but otherwise he was the picture of deferential innocence. Madame Reynier loved Aleck, with his inoffensive Americanisms and unfailing kindliness; and with her friends she was frankness itself. With two men in Miss Reynier's hands for entertainment, it seemed to Aleck unlikely that either one could make any alarming progress. Besides, he was glad of a tete-a-tete with the chaperone. Mad a rue Reynier was a tall, straight woman, elderly/ dressed entirely In biack,1 with; f*aunt# aristocratic c features and g)^at directness hi speech. She had ttya &fce kind of hautjeur which forbids persons of this type ever to speak p r money, of disease/ of scandal, or of tod1 intimate personalities; in Madame Reynier's ease it also restrained her from every sort of exaggerated speech. She spoke English with some difficulty and preferred French. Van Camp seated himself on a spindle- legged, gilt chair by Madame Reynier's side, and begged to know how they were enduring the New York climate, which had formerly proved intolerable to Madame Reynier. As he seated himself she stretched out sav- Thg hands. "I can endure the climate, thank you; but I can't endure to see your life endangered on that silly chair, my dear Mr. Van Camp. There—thank you." And when he was seated in a solid mahogany, he was rewarded with Madame Reynier's confidential chat. They had returned to their New York apartment in the midst of the summer season, she said, "for professional advice." She and her niece liked the city an4 never minded the heat- Meianie, her aunt explained, had been enabled to see several old friends, and, for her own part, she liked home at any time of the year better than the most comfortable of hotels. "This is quite like home," she added, "even though we are really exiles." Aleck ventured to hope that the "professional advince" had not meant serious trouble of any sort. "A slight indisposition only." "And are you much better now?" Aleck inquired solicitously. "Oh, it wasn't I; it was Melanle," Madame smiled. "I became my own physician many years ago, and now I never see a doctor except when we ask one to dine. But youth has no such advantage." Madame fairly beamed with benevolence while explaining one of her pet idiosyncrasies. Before Aleck could make any headway in gleaning information concerning her own and Mclanie's movements, as he was shamefully trying to do, Lloyd- Jones had persuaded Miss Reynier to sing. "Some of those quaint old things, please," he was saying; and Aleck wondered if he never would hang himself with his own rope. But Lloyd- Jones' cheerful voice went on: "Some of those Hungarian things are jolly and funny, even though you can't understand the words. Makes you want to dance or sing yourself." Aleck groaneci; Dut Meianie began To~ sing, with Jones,hovering around the piano. By the time Melanle had sung everybody's favorites, excluding Aleck's, Mr. Chamberlain rose to depart. He was an Englishman, a serious, heavy gentleman, very loyal to old friends and very slow In making new ones. He made an engagement to dine, with Aleck on the following evening, and, as he went out, threw back to the remaining gentlemen an offer of seats in his machine. "I ought to go," said Jones; "but if Van Camp will stay, Twill. That is,", he added with belated punctiliousness, "if the ladies will permit?' "Thank .^ou, Chamberlain, I'm walking," drawled Aleck; then turning to the company with his cheeful grin he stated quite impersonally: "I was thinking of staying long enough to EXTENDING T H E A G R I C U L T U R A L AREA IN W E S T E R N CANADA. For sometime past the Canadian government has had surveyors' at work platting new areas for the accommodation of the largely increasing number of settlers coming in to occupy the agricultural districts of the three prairie provinces. There were those connected with the work of securing settlers for western Can: ada who last spring prophesied that there would be as many j.s 175,000 new settlers from the United States to Canada during the present year, and there were those who doubted that the previous year's figures of 132,000 could be increased. Recent computation made by the officials of thef immigration branch at Ottawa show that the largest estimates, made 1 by officials will be beaten and that the 200,000 mark from the^ United States will be reached. As great an increase will be-shown in the figures of those who will reach Canada from other countries this year. The results of the year's work in Canadian immigration will give upward of a total of 400,000 souls. But this is not to be wondered at when, it is realized what is offering in th.e three prairie provinces and also in the coast province of British Columbia, which is also bidding strongly and successfully, too, for a certain class of sutler, the settler who wishes tcykp into mixed farming or fruit raisfflg. When the central portion dr thiB province-is", opened up by the railway now being constructed there will be large areas of splendid^ land available for the settler. Reference has frequently been made of late by those interested 4n developing the American west to the large numbers who are going to Canada, high officials in some of the railways being amongst the number to give voice to the fact. The more these facts become known the more will people seek the reasons and these are best given when one reads what prominent people say of it. What the farmer thinks of it and what his friends say of it. James'A. Iflaherty, supreme knigtot of the Knights of Columbus, was in western Canada a short time ago. He says: "If I were a young man I would sell out my interests in less than two months and come right to the Canadian Northwest, where so many opportunities abound."—Advertisement Patriotism. A quaint little incident is related by a French war correspondent, which sheds light on the enthusiasm and nervousness with which the Greeks entered upon their war with Turkey. When the mobilization orders reached the little town of Chalkls, all owners of horses and mules hastened to comply, but there were no soldiers to escort the animals to Athens, where they were urgently needed, the military being already on the frontier. Thereupon the mayor, of Chalkis set an example, which was followed by two or three of the oldest lawyers, put"onequestfon—er, a matter of Borne school teachers, doctors and hotel little importance—to Miss Reynier. keepers. When she gives me the desired infor-_ mation, T shall go." "Me, too," chirped Mr. Lloyd-Jones. "I came expressly to talk over that plan of building up friendly adjoining estates out in Idaho; sort of private shooting and hunting park! you know. And I haven't had, a minute to say a word." Jones suddenly began to feel himself^aggrieved. r As the door closed after Chamberlain, Meianie motioned them back to their.seats. "It's not so very late," she said eas- All these notable and learned men put their dignity on one side, and turned themselves for the nonce into grooms^tfhd stable lads.

"I haven't seen you for a^es, and I don't know when the good moment will come again." She_ included the two men in a friendly smile, waved a hand toward the waiting chairs, and adjusted a light shawl over the shoulders of Madame Reynier. But Aleck by this time had the bit in his teeth and would not be coaxed. His ordinarily cool eye rested wrathfully on the broad shoulders of Mr. Lloyd-Jones, who was lighting a cigarette, and he turned abruptly to Miss Reynier. His voice was as serious as if parliament, at least, had been hanging on his words. "May I call tomorrow, Miss Reynier, at about twelve?" "Oh, I say," put in Jones, "all of you come to luncheon with me at the Little Gray Fox—will you? Capital place and all sorts of nice people. - Do come. About one." Van Camp could .have slain him.

The young gladiator of sixteen, who eats a "big meal" and then rushes into a game of football, draws the blood from his stomach, where i t is needed to digest that mea^ The stomach is left to get on as best i t can. Loss of muscular power in the organ follows,, and a "splashing stomach," because of muscular relaxation, can in time be demonstrated.

I f boys i n their teens are going to be pitted against one another i n athletic contests that call for the regular schedule of professionals, or o f college men who liave reached their physical maturity, then they should also be examine4by physicians and handled by regular trainers, as these older men are. Boys are poor judges of their physical fitness. Naturally one boy likes to think he is physically as strong as "any other boy, and alt boys want to do the things they see other fellows do, being ignoiymt nf the consequences. Examination and direction in this field of rmiruvor lire essential, for the athletic spirit is everywhere. Even Sunday hcIiooN have their track teams. Direction is as essential in athletics as in regard 'to bookVstudied. Our half-grown boys should not be permitted to engage i n contests strenuous and prolonged i n character, if not physically up to it or not in proper condition. Competing at play is a good thing for any boy where the sport Its a game that shifts about( and the test is not one of endurance or seevcre stress. There is a big difference between exercises of this sort and doing stunts that may work physical harm or result in physical deformity that is bound to lapt a lifetime. Bovs must learn to concentrate their minds and find their will power or stick-to-it-iveness.

Bather oddlv, as many think, the report of the majority is in favor oi extending the grounds on which divordb is now legally granted, while the minority recommends that the present English law on7 the subject be allowed to remain as it is, it being the view of the minority commissioners that it would be a dangerous step, imperiling the welfare and damaging to the morals of the British nation to make it any easier than it now is for manned people to become, separated. At present the only ground, on which a divorce can be obtained in tbe United Kingdom is marital rnfidelitv. France and the United States were both held up as awful examples of how demoralizing it is to society if there be many a severance ot the bonds of matrimony. 1 The majority report rec6jjrnendod that four more grounds of justi- • fication for divorce be recognized, to w i t : a life sentence in the penitentiary, desertion after three years, cruelty and habitual drunkenness, whi< according to the commissioners, were grounds recognized in nearly will the states of the American Union.

When Billy Papke of Kewanee, 111., returns to America it will be to Rattle for the middleweight boxing championahip of the world. When he is to return is not known at present, but It is thought It will be within, a few months. At present he is fighting in France and England with much success. He has been across the pond lesB than six months and in that period has won the championship of his division in England and France. He has had three battles and won all three on knockouts. Papke is in the form displayed when champion of the world and stood as a rival of Stanley Ketchel for the honors. Then he was referred to as' the "Illinois Thunderbolt." and he was deserving of the appellation. Defeats by Ketchel took most of the aggressive fighting spirit out of him and he has been some time in recuperating. It is said'he has fully recovered and is a "Tipton Slasher." He has his former knockout punch back and is as fast as ever. His condition, reports have it, could not be improved ^ffotriratttt°"he is iiiaTflng~~tke.,„ mlddTcT weight limit without any trouble. There will be considerable action In the middleweight ranks when Papke comes back. Asi^le from Ketchel, no 158-pounder was more popular than the Kewanee lad since the days of Tommy Ryan. His style of milling was liked, as was his willingness to "scrap" while in the ring. Papke, when struggling for the title a few years ago, never was known to stall. Getting into the ring and slashing toe to toe with his opponent was his chief hobby, and^he made himself famous with his "loop-de-lo6p" punch, which he first used successfully against Hugo Kelly in Milwaukee, when he conquered the then crack middleweight fighter. He has not changed his style of boxing; any, it is said. This means there ^ t r o u b l e ah£ad for Eddie Mc- Goorty and Mike Gibbons, who are striving to settle the middleweight championship of America among themselves. Neither has met a fighter of Papke's type and will find the going a bit rough wrhen they meet one. Neither can hit hard enough to stop Papke. Ketchel was known as the assassin in the ring when he knocked out thirty-three men in fortysix fights, and this included the bestsluggers of his day. Papke. hi his bouts with the late champion, staged a bitter and desperate fight and gave as good as he received until he was knocked out. He lost because Ketchel carried the stiffer punch. r W R E S T L E R S A R E VER*Y QUIET Mat Men, Usually Quite Susy at This Season of Year, Are Missing— Yussif Mahmout Coming.

An hour or two after he had sent Anne Mayfleld enough rj^ses to fill her little studio, Don Rogefi^decided to drop in for a cup of tea, not that he cared for the tea, but under cover of the talk of the dozen or more he was sure to find there, he could watch Anne and revel in her beauty and charm. Anne was going to marry the Honenable Richard Bachman, a widower with a boy eight or nine years old. Laird Robbins had told him confidentially that he was in the jeweler's w)ien the elderly lover ordered "To Anne" inscribed in a circle of diamonds. Anne met him at the door, ond over her head Dan saw Bachman by the window, pinching off a rosebud, out of his own late purchase, to put in the lapel of his frock coat. "If you're engaged, Anne," he said pointedly, "I'd better not go in today." "Come right in this minute," urged Anne cordially. "You can go to market with me in a little while, and then stay to dinner if you will." Bachman had Mb hat in his hand ready to leave. 1 "You think it is pretty, then. Miss Anne?" Don heard him ask at the door. "It's lovely." said Anne with enthusiasm. "You've shown splendid taste." Anne shut the door quietly and .faced Donftaughter wrinkling up the corners of hep eyes. "Isn't this place a bower of beauty and fragrance? Your roses have made it summer here even if it is winter in the rest of the world. They're lovely, Don. What's the matter? Your face is so long and solemn." "Blue devils, I guess," he answered shortly. • "Mind if I smoke?" "Never did. did I? Puff away, but I'll have you know that if there ^are any blue devils in this box of an apartment, you brought them in your pockets. I ran them all out this morning and watched them freeze to death on the window sill." "You're mighty gay this afternoon, aren't you?" . "Yes, sir, for I have a contract with a big new magazine to furnish a, page of my cuties in every issue for the next six months." "What a clever girl you are, Anne! That^pencil of yours has made those little flgtrres^df people famous over the country." The door opened unceremoniously and Jimsie Bachman, the - sou and luj ir to the vast estates of the Honorable Richard, appeared. J? "Hello, Miss Anne! Got any cakes.?" "I certainly have. Come in and I'll get you some. You - know Mr. Rogers, don't yau?"^ "So you have a sweet toofh, Jimmy," said Rogers affably. "My name's not .Jimmy, it's Jimsie. I saw it in the Bible. I'm all the time having to tell my right name to folks." While Anne went foraging for cakes, Jimsie turned his back to the fire, hands clasped behind him, in the most approved man fashion. Mies Anne's helping dad get married," he asserted with the importance of one giving vital news. ^ "Really." - responded the man fcily. "Yes. she's helped him a lot 'bout s'lecting the ring and all," went on the loquacious youngster. "The lady's a friend of Miss Anne's. That's why she's so inter'sted." • "Who—whom is your father going to marry?" demanded Rogers, suddenly. "I promised not to tell anything about it to anybody," returned Jimsie, loftily. " I l l give you a dollar to tell me the truth." *"Gee! I'd a told for fifty cents,"" said Jimsie quickly forgetting his conscience. "It's Miss Anne Bradner, she lives in another town. Where's the money?" J "Here you are. Jimsie," said Afine, coming in just then. "I brought you a box full of cakee to take on the train tonight when you and your father go visiting." "What have you done with your blue ^devils?" she demanded, turning back from closing the door on her diminutive guest and facing a man with a very different expression from the one he had jvorn half an hour before. "Did you give them to Jimsie? He's very accommodating." "Very," he answered, and then as he watched her adjust a fur toque on her dark hair. "Are we going to market now—to buy a fat pig?" "No, not that," corrected Anne. "I need a few extras and I've been too busy to go^out today." She fastened a great crimson rose In her furs. "I have to take one with me," she said. " 'To you tt is a rose, to me, it is my heart,*" he quoted. "That's pretty sentiment, isn't it, Don ?

A good preacher who ministers to> the spiritual needs of one of the most fashionable congregations in city of the middle west has a son-four years old, who has been caiied remarkably bright, even when his parents were not present to hear. Not long ago little Edward was out playing v ith some boys from^around the corner. They were pretty close to the window of the library in which the good iruin sat, composing his sermon for the fullowing Sunday; consequently, when Edward exclaimed'. 4 '0h, darn!" the father heard him. "Come in here, Edward," said thegood man, and Edward went in. "I heard you say 'Oh, darn!' a moment ago." "Yes, papa." "What did you mean by saying, that?", "1 meant, 'oh damn,' " the child replied; "hut I know it is wicked to say 'damn, so I only said darn." MERE OPINION.

With a slight tremor in his voice, he •aid: "I am in1 great trouble." "I see you are," I replied; "and I hear you are English. What brings you here?" He paused an Instant, and, passing his hand across his forehead, repeated: "I am i n great trouble." With a gesture, as if anxious to throw off his secret, he continued: "My name is Allen B , and my father is one. of the largest colliery owners in the north of England. Six months ago I came to Paris to study painting—" Again he paused, staring at me. Then suddenly he asked: "Do I look like a swindler—a' sharper?" "No; you do not. Why do you ask?" "Because, a fortnight ago I rose in the morning with an untarnished reputation, and, although I had committed, no wrong whatever, I went to bed a disgraced man." He wak laboring under strong emotion; a i d as he remained silent, I said: "Tell me what has occurred " "It fell upon me like a thunderbolt, at the house of Madame J , where I used to gOL_ojice_-A-ffie^jQXja^^ of cards. I was praying piquet, i^ the smoking room, with a young fi low called Bernard T , and hai won the first game. We had just gun the third, when Bernard juparped up and shrieked: " ' I have caught'you at las/. You are cheating!' 'The men at the other tables crowded around us, and Madame J , her daughter Genevieve, and their guests came running i n from the adjoining drawing room attracted by the noise. "I had grasped Bernard by the throat, calling out, 'Retract what you said, you villain, JOV I will kill you!' "They dragged him away from me, II* r s ^ & s white as a sheet; and the moment ne l»Ai caught his breath, he shook his fist at and bawled: "You say you'll kill 'riich You want me to retract? I tell you, you aas a cheat, a dirty cheat! Gentlemen, ask him to empty, his pockets, here before you, and you'll see whether I am right!" "I put my hands in the pockets of my smoking jacket, and pulled out-a dozen cards, corner-bent, like those used by professional sharpers. "There was a moment of silence, and then the Viscomte de St. said to me: 'This is a very serious affair. Have you any explanation to offer?' "Then the horror of my situation came upon me. I tried to rush at Bernard, but they laid hold of me. Frantic with rage, I shook them off. "'It's a lie! It's a lie!' I shouted. 'Gentlemen, this fellow, or some other scoundrel, has-r-heavens knows why— slipped these cards into my pocket. It is a fiendish trick some on? h i s played; and I call upon those here who know me to help to unmask the coward who did it!' * "They looked at me in silence, and after whispered consultation, ther Viscomte de St. spoke again: ^ "Mr. B——, I think it will be best if you and M . Bernard T withdraw for a few minutes to allow us to discuss this matter, and decide on the course to take.' "Bernard went upstairs to Madame's boudoir, and I to the drawing room,, where I found Mademoiselle Genevieve alone. For a while she took no notice of me as I nervously paced up and down the room, but when I stopped she remarked in a soft voice: " 'Monsieur Allen, I am sure you are Innocent.' "I pre§sed her hand. " 4Goa bless you, Mademoiselle Genevieve; T shall never forget your confidence in me. But, since you do not doubt me, I implore you to tell me whether you have any suspicion, any idea, as to who could have laid this trop for me?* "She thought a moment, and then replied: ' " 'Nd, Monsieur Allen, I have not the faintest idea. I wish I could help you/ "She looked up, and I <could read i n her eyes that she had spoken the truth.

Several days I spent trying to unravel this' niys^ tery, when 1 received two letters from England. The first was from my father. The poor man is heart-broken. He had had a full account of what had occurred at Madame's house. He advised me to go away, somewhere inthe Colonies, and remain there till this affair is forgotten. The other letter was—" He again stopped, and hid his face in his hands. "It was from my fiancee, the girl I was to have married in three months, on my return to England. She, too, knew all about it, and informed me that-^must consider our engagement* d. I at once wrote to my fad to my fiancee, telling them that I had been the victim of a horrible T>lot, imploring them to reply by return post; but neither of them has sent me a line. I then remembered my friend, L . de V , a school-chum, now on the diplomatic service. He has known me all my life; and, after I had told him my story, he gave me this introduction to you. Monsieur Goron, I beg of you to help me!" "I certainly will try to help you," I replied; "but your story is incomplete. I want to hear more about these people—the "vicomte, Bernard T , Madame J——, and even—if you a41ow. me—Mademoiselle Genevieve. Who are they?1' "Madame J is tho widow of a naval officer. I was introduced to her the first week I arrived in Paris, by a man in the studio where I was paint ing. She received every other evening.

"You are right, Monsieur Goron— last, but not least; for .1 believe she Is the Innocent cause of this business. I have been thinking nisht aiid day, and I am sure I have found the clue to this mystery."

There can be no other cause why anybody should try to compromise me in such a horrible 'way. With your help we will get to the bottom of it." "It is a queer, a very queer business; darker than you seem to think. I do not say this to alarm you, but to prepare you for a few surprises. Give me the addresses of all the people you have just mentioned, and come here to-morrow at four o'clock* Don't think of revenge; this may, or may not, come later. The first thing to be done is to clear you." My visitor thanked me and went away with a lighter step. But when he returned the following* day he looked more distressed than before. "What has gone wrong?'1 I asked. "Any fresh trouble?" "No," he replied moodily, "except that I have had a letter from our lawyer begging me to go away at once— for the honor of the family."' With a suppressed oath he threw the le/ter on my table. — "Never mind^he lawyer. Tell him to go to (he—Colonies himself.

"Yes, but I gave up because—" "You found you lost too much?" "You've guessed it. I did lose/'* "How much?" "About, two thousand-dollars." "Just what I expected. I have received some queer reports about your friends. Madame J 's reputation is 7ar from good, and I suspect her salon to be a trap to swindle people—like you. Bernard T certainly didx inherit some money last year, but he ran through it; and he is now the associate, and possibly the tool, of professional gamblers. As to the vicomte, there is some mystery here, and I distrust mysteries. And now, my dear, Mr. B , I am- afraid I must say something that will upset you. You have undoubtedly an enemy—not that Bernard—but a man, or woman, who has a more potent interest in ruining your reputation. Look into the past, and see whether you can detect any such person." Mr. B stared at me in amazement. f "An enemy!" he cried. "I. en enemy? I have never ptaod In anybody's way, and no 2ian in mine. As to womer ». t:;ey have played no part in ray life. I have fallen in love only once —and that with the girl I was to have married," he added with a bitter smile. "You will not be the first to have made such a startling discovery. Others have made it; and in this very room, too. I see I cannot look to you fgr assistance in this business. Keep quiet until you hear from me. I hop<3 it will be soon." I do not know a more villainous offense than that of sullying a man's reputation, to rob him of what is dearer^ to him than life—his honor. And I resolved to use all my energy to come to this poor fellow's assistance; especially as the conviction grew upon me that my young friend was the victim of a plot, a fiendish conspiracy, and 0 I'tvtiM details about by Martha Dto give me some the disturbance caused She had, it seems, smkshed a window, using threatening, language, and the yicomte had applied for a summons. I sent for her, and/a•11.1 tie before six she was announced;/ a tall, dark-eyed girl, who played an' insignificant part in the new farce at the Folies-Dramatiques. She was very selt-possessed, .and asked what I wanted of hor. "And so you had a scene with your friend, the vicomte?" She turned,sharply around, and her eyes grew warlike. v "My 'friend,' you call him? I can dispense with such friends. When a map borrows money from a woman, and does not pa£ her, the least he can do ,is' to be civil to her!" "That is true. Why did he borrow money from you?" "I don't know. At times he has plenty of cash, and at others not a cent." "I suppose he gambles a bit?" "You bet! Since he goes to that new club in the Rue Maubeuge, he is always flush with mone£. , H e has been wonderfully lucky there; too much so, I fancy." "Why too much bo?" "Oh, I don't know!" And she shrugged her shoulders. J d»d x^t '.Mr.it it prudent to press the point. "If he borrowed money from you, and, as you say, has now plenty, why does he not pay you?" "He might have done so; but he has his silly pri(Je. He was annoyed that I alluded to it in the presence of his friend, an Englishman—although that man did not understand a word of FreBci)— and he had specially asked me to come that evening. I would have done better to have gone away, as I was getting cross at their talking English all the time." "Possibly he,-*too, was cross, if the Englishman paid you too much attention." "No," she laughed, "he is too fond of himself to notice Buch things. And the Englishman was too absorbed in what the vicomte was saying."

During his narrative of the tragic scene'at Madame J 's house, I had not been favorably impressed by the attitude of this vicomte, th^ self-conctituted president of the impromptu tribunal of honor. I therefore decided to leave the fiery Bernard alone for the,present, and take the my.torious nobleman in har.d, after having first found out who he was. I confided the la:ior mission to Nicholas, one of my men, whom his colleagues h^d nicknsmed the "Diver," because^of his wonderful skill in "divnto people's pasts, and unearthing the most hidden secret a. I did net. see my "diver" ror two days; but when he turned np he looked, happy, and handed me his report. It was one of his weaknesses.

I then entered the baccarat room, where, around a lo.»g table, covered with green baize, a dozen persons were seated. I looked about me. It was still early, and tne business Of the evening had not begun. The players were of the ordinary type. The majority of them were pigeons ready to be plucked, the rest bore the undeniable" stamp of the professional gambler. My attention, however, waa centered on the croupier ^ Few people—even those in the habit clubs or in casinos of well-known wa tering-fclaces—have a rembtg idea of the important post this official holds. With a long, flat, wooden s c o o p - something like a cricket-bat—he rakes in the counters from-the losers, and pays the winning side. In great clubs, these men are carefully watched to avoid any trickery; but in the small gambling-dens their role 1* altogether a different one. When som* one opens one of these deqs, Which, being clubs* can be raided only croupier becomes are bent on robwith difficulty, the his partner. Both bery. If the proprietor—always a professional sharper—takes the bank, fy? will cheat the players by a spries of tricks, too numerous to be explained here. When, however, a guileless stranger acts as banker, the croupier's role comes i n ; for, while he rakes in the money for the banker, a portion of it disappears into his pockets in # manner which only the most expert eye can detect, * * :) For the benefit of the uninitiated I will explain the principles of the game: The player** sit on the right and left of the banker, who has several complete packs of cards in front of him. When the players have staked their money, the banker deals one card to the rigbt, one card to the left^and one to himself. He repeats this operation. One of the players on either tide of the banker takes up the cards and plays them against the banker for his side of the table. The object of the game is to score nine—-not more—or as near that number as possible^—with the two card^; a third card can be had if desired. Court-hards and tens aro valueless. If the total of the spots comes to more than ten, ten must be deducted. If the banker's score is below that of the player's he loses; if above, he wins. Slowly the room began to fill, and toward half-past eleven a tall, thin man with a grayish beard and small piercing eyes came i n ; from the de^ scription given me I recognized the Vicomte de St. . He smoked a cigarette, paying little attention to what went on at the table, where a banker, with only three hundred francs in the bank, was dealing his cards in a desultory fashion. All at once the vicomte's face brightened, and he went up with extended hands to vome fashionably dressed men who had just entered. I guessed they were what in - gambling-hourse parlance Is called r 'Big Game." I then gave up my seat at the table, where I was too much In view, and stood behind tiuj-^piayers, where I could watch everything. A bright-looking youth took tho bank for five thousand francs, and play began in real earnest. Somebody called "Hanco" (staking all there'is in the bank), nnd the excilenient rose to a high pitch. Thus far the vicomte had not joined in the game; at last, to my delight, I saw him take'^u bank, also for five -thousand francs. He called for fresh cards* This call for fresh cards at such a time demands an explanation. In the gambling world it Is well known that, after the- cards have been shuffled, cut, and placed in front of the banker, it is easy for the latter, by sleight of hand, to put a few prepared cards on the top that will give him two or three winning deals. If, therefore, the banker asks for fresh cards, tho uninitiated— and, unfortunately, they form the majority—suppose that ,no trickery is possible. I am sorry 4o have to disabuse them. The woQst swindles are"""'practiced with socallei new packs. I say "socalled," because in the directorial sanctum they have undergone a curious process. The pack is held over a steaming kettle, the wrapper skilfully removed, the cards taken out, arranged to give the dealer the advantage, and ar:'iin cr.rrfuMy replaced in the original wrapper. The study I had in former years been compelled to make of these practices, now proved useful, and I moved behind the vicomte's chair so as not to lose one of his movements. Five new packs were brought in, and the croupier undid the four, leaving one'on the niantlepiece. Reshuffled the four-packs with a great deal of zest, yet so dexterously that their order was not changed. The man was a great expert in the "sham-shufiling" trick. Of all thjg_peopleVin the room I, certainly, waa the most interested in the game, for I was playing for higher stakes than any of them—(or a man's honor. Supposing these cards, brought on a tray, should not have been tampered with; supposing the vicomte played a fair game, without any attempt at cheating; my whole combination fell to the ground, and I should have to invent ano:her mode of attack. I held my breath when the first cards were dealt; and then a feeling of relief came over me, for I at once recognized the famous combination, known as the "705." or, more appropriately, the "Lightning Flash," because of the rapidity with .-Which it cleans out its victims. And, by way of curiousity, I give below this extraordinary scries, from which it will be seen that, with the exception of two deals, where banker and players have the same points, the former wins every coup. The players mny rut as many times as .they like; li \\. 1 not affect the game!* A quarter of. an hour later the vicomte rose. He smiled, and could well afford to do so, for he had made a big haul. Three o'clock struck, the last bank, a small" one, had been dealt. Everybody left, and I was on the sofa, pretending to be asleepv * " W W s that?"

"Certainly. But first ring the bell and s-end away your servants." i My orders were obeyed. "And now," I continued, "follow me into the card room."' 1 led the way, and from the mantelpiece took the fifth pack, xjeft there when the vicomte had dealt the cards.- The croupier, who had remained behind, moved toward the door. "Come ^ere!" t shouted to him. "Take off your coat and waistcoat, and hand them to me." He did so, trembling with fear, and out of several long pockets, lined with velvet to deaden the sound, If tock a handful of counters. "You scoundrel!" I said, "I watched you do this. And now, clear out; I want to talk i o your "master—and accomplice." I handed the vicomte the pack of cards I had taken up, and said: "Let me call them over to you with my back turned. Seven, nought, five, nine, nought—I forget the rest; but I think this ought to be enough. I have seen the 'Lightning Flash* done before. Do you want any more reasons why I came here tonight?" He seemed stunned, and shook his head. "Cannot this scandal be avoided?" he asked. "Expect nothing from me, until you have told me the whole truth about the Allen B affair at Madame j >s what was the object of, that conspiracy, and who is at the bottom of it?" He looked at me with a cunning expression. , | "I think I see your gamey Monsier. Goron. Allow me to comlrtfment you on your skill.- In other words, you want me to make certain disclosures. In that case, It is but right I should—" I gave him no time to finish bis sentence, but, seizing him roughly by the arm, shouted: "I arrest you, you scamp t »> What I expected happened. The coward in him came to the fore. He 4H4nged nnd crawledT--^nd—theg-~te4dme he had instructed Bernard T to elip the cards in poor Allen B 's pockets. "Whose orders did you carry out?M "An Englishman's'." "Harold W , or, in reality, Edward K — ? " He pave me a surprised glance. "Yos." • . • "For what reason?" "I don't, know. You can believe me, It is a secret between him and Allen \\ , and. I would never have done this thing had I not been in Edward K 's hands. He compelled me to do it." He put. his statement down In writing, and then took me to his apartinput, where, at my request, he handed me two letters from Edward, K . I whs on the point of leaving when I remembered Mademoiselle Marthe. "Sit down again, and write a note to the police commissary in your district, that you wish to withdraw your charge against Marthe D ." The vicomte, who had given un feeling surprised at. anything, wroft the note, and handed it to me. It was six o'clock and broad daylight when I reached home. I at once sent for Allen B . "Who is Edward K ?" I asked be» fore he had even time to sit down, "A distant connection. Why?" i "What object had he in disgracing you?" "He? Impossible—he belongs to a firpt-elnffl county family." "Rlnw your county families! Read this!" and I handed him the vicomte's statement. I never thought it possible that delight and horror could be expressed at the same time on anybody's face. Allen B - performed that extraordl* nary feat. Then he shook me by both hands until my arms ached, and exclaimed: "What a scoundrel! Who could have dreamed this? Monsieur Goron, it all dawns'upon me now. Three years ago that man proposed to a Jady to whom I afterward became engaged. She rejected him, and he—" "That will do. These are family secrets.

Theirs was a hundred-yard-dash chance. The Serbs at Kumanova, their critical battle, had odds of at least four to one. The Greeks riever had less favorable odds, usually much higher. -Mustapha Pasha.—The minarets of \ A s . f o r the Montenegrins, who had Saltan Selim!

He stormed forts; he went ahead to plant new minarets in the soil of Christendom.

In Riilgnrila, w W p many Turk*? ptill l i v e under Christian rule, we' had «een the Terrible Turk, the great fighting man of the past, whose soul was supposed to be above lowly toil, as a hewer of wood and a carrier of water.

A l l the earry victories of the Bulgarian army completed an impression «of. a one-time lordly race demoralized a n d enervated, who retained only the fataitem of "Kismet," in its lexocon. T%e warrior'* cry, "For Allah!" was lost forever. But at Adrianople "For Allah? For the Minarets! For the Padlsna!

Bulgars Bear War's Brunt. So the Bulgarians took the great 'and telling work of the war on their shoulders. You have only to know the Bulgarians to understand that this .was inevitable. There is stubborn an4 aggressive character enough in Bulgaria to spare for all southwestern Europe, Bulgaria made a hundred-yard dash with ox cart transportation, and made it around an obstacle—Adrianople. The main railroad line and the great Constantinople highway ran by Adrianople. It was on the direct line of communication from the center of the Bulgarian base to the center of its objective. In the center of Thrace, it was the only real fortress on the way to Constantinople. Kirk-Killis8eh, or Losengrade, as the Bulgarians call it, despite their willingness to allow an impression of its formidaliHty to be spread abroad, was not in any sense well fortified. Now, the first thing was to surround Adrianople; that is, to strike at it from all sides, as the key to the position. A" branch of, the main Sofla- -Conotantlnoplo ra-Hroad-Jjne runs to ffttch were the instructions which fir, Daneff, the Elihu Root of the Bals a m , took with £ i m to London. Adrfanople'. was graven on the minds of M s countrymen.

The Builerteolc to buck the line....( Id; not- »ave to consider European public, tlousies of the powit substitutes, for statesmanship, pi* were beat permit lulgariai* ;tj win; Yamboli. With this as its base, Deme trieff's, or the First, army swung around Kirk-Kilisseh, which was taken in the first splendid ardor of the campaign. With its fall anyone can see from a staff map that any battle line of defense with Adrianople as a part of it was impossible for a force of the numbers of the Turkish main army. Two or three hundred thousand men who were homogeneous might have held on, but not half that number when badly organized. Therefore, Nazim Pasha had to fall back to a new line and leave Adrianople to care for itself. Reveals Bulgar Courage. The next step was the decisive battle on the line from Lule Burgas to Bunnarhissar. There, again, superiority of numbers, as well as organization, counted; that superiority, which makes a h?avy turning movement possible while the^ enemy'B front is engaged. In short, the Bulgarians had the Turks going. They gave the Turks no rest, and they had a sufficient numerical preponderance, in addition.to the dependable courage of their infantry to guarantee success* So there was nothing wonderful about the strategy of the campaign, nothing new, nothing startling. The old principle of the swift movement had been applied to the situation in hand. > By the flank the Japanese kept putting the Russians back from /the Yalu to Mdkden.^By the flank Grant put Lee back to Richmond. There was just one, and only one, startling feature In this war—Bulgarian courage, f hat enabled Demetrieff to gain at Kirk-Killisseh and Lule Burgas in a hurry what with most armies would have required much more time. Demetrieff had willing flesh for a necessary sacrifice. He threw his infantry against frontal positions In a cloud, into shrapnel and automatic gun fire, without waiting to silence the enemy's batteries. Expected to Take Adrianople. And after Lule Burgas the next step would have seemed the storming of Adrianople. When peace negotiations should begin, It was a vital point in their favor in the negotiations to have Adrianople in their possession. The^Bulgarian treatment of the cor^, respondents is one of the manySrv dlcations that the Bulgarian staff did at one time expect to take Adrianople by storm. It was argued by serious correspondents who did not feel that they ought to waste their time or. the money of their papers In idleness, that the Bulgarian government ought not to have received any correspondents at all. But this was not logic to the government. The press represented public opinion. It could serve a purpose, and ail the college professors in the land who spoke any foreign language found their work in the common cause, no less than grandfamade of the wounded, nor even of the weather, if it were bad, for bad weatb- ,er might tell the enemy that the roads Were bad. <j. i * While many an ixaaginaw account, because it had the similitude of narrative which characterizes all convincing fiction, was haUed as real war correspondence, t h V Bulgarian staff, when, it came to actual reports pf actions (exclusive of massacres),, was scrupulously exact andexasperatingly late and brief. •* A l l praise by the press kept the ball of the prestige of victory rolling. It helped to convince the powers and the Turk that the Bulgarian army was irresistible. The Btage climax of the whole campaign would be the fall of Adrianople. Therefore were the -correspondents moved to Mustapha Pasha just as Lule Burgas was being won; and Constantinople, being then supposedly defended only by a demoralized army, which could not make a stand, every report from Mustapha PaBha ^which showed that Adrianople was on the point of capitulation added to the stage effect of Bulgarian triumph. Turks Defy the Bulgars. As the first Bulgarian army drew near the Tchatalja lines, the mise en scene was complete; ffut Nazim Pasha, making use of the elapsed ti'me to fortify the Tchatalja lines, rather than submit to the humiliating termfi offered, bade' the Bulgarian hosts "come on." ' Success had turned the bedds even of the Bulgarian staff. They had begun to think that the^bld fighting quality was out of the Turk, and so'wiHing was the Bulgarian infantry to undergo, slaughter that it was only a case of recording another charge of flesh against shrapnel and automatic gUn fire, and the day was won. Alas, an old principle of war, dealing with an impossibility of the same order as squaring the circle in mathematics, was now to bring generalship back from the clouds to solid earth. You can take strong positions in front only with time by sapping and mining and all the weary operations of a siege, as the Indomitable Grant learned by the failure of his flrsh rush General Demetrieff. at Vlcksburg and the, Indomitable Nogi learned by the failure of the first rush attack at Port Arthur. In a week, any army that has spades and a few of the resources of material which should be part of the storehouse at its base should make such a position as that of the series of rising Irills back of Tchatalja fully tenable against any but siege attack, unless there was* room for a flank attack.' Turks Turn the Tables. And the breadth of the position turning \ open to infantry approach in any attempt at storming was only 16 miles, while from either sea side of the narrow etrip^ of peninsula the Turkish navy could bring into play more powerful guns than any Demetrieff had at his disposal. At the same time there is to be kept in view the generally accepted tenet that you must not send infantry against any well entrenched position until its batteries are silenced or it is known that they can be kept under control during the infantry attack by a well concentrated fire of your own batteries. Demetrieff used his guns ;tbr a day in trying to develop the strength and location of the enemy's batteries. But the Turks would not be drawn. At last the tables were turned. Meanwhile Adrianople also was telling. You may discuss as much as you please whether the original plan of the Bulgarian staff was to mask this fortress or to take it by storm, the fact remains that the only result was to mask it, and the lesson was that any garrison in the rear of an advancing army, though it is held securely in investment, remains a mighty force In being for the enemy's purpose. Nature meant Adrianople to be a fortress. Past it on the soutfi flows the Maritza river, taking its origin in the Balkans and , plowing its way across the alluvial lowlands of Thrace to the sea. A strong bridge crosses it on the line of the Constantinople highway at Mustapha Pasha, some twentyfive miles from Adrianople. This bridge, which is not far from the Bulgarian frontier, the Turks left intact, jkjeharacteristic piece of carelessness in the.earlier part of the war ther found-hia-in driving an ^x-cart-fiu-keeping with-all otheT-slgns-TyrTiir.

No mention was to be' under General Ivanoff, who \Vas to have tho thankless task of the operations around Adrianople. W$le.-ea&y glory was te 6e"the fortune of Demetrle, ff* w^T commended the ^rst ar,my —untUMie first a«Hy had t4 take positions in *rbnt without any.opportunity for flanking, which was the nature of Ivanoff's task from the start Uanoff Wakes Up. It was Papastepe and Kartaltepe which wakened Ivanoff from hia dream of a final brilliant stroke in keeping with the earlier ones of the war, just as Tchatalia brqught Demetrieff down from the clouds of overconfidence. Papastepe is one of many hills in the narrowing rib of the 203 Meter H i l l of the siege. With guns in position .there, Adrianople would be under bombardment. The Bulgarians took it by sending in the usual cloud of infantry and losing about a thousand men. But the Turks took it back again. Four times, I am. told, it changed hands in the course of those night actions which we observed only by the brilliant flashes in the sky above the hills. Far up the valley in the' mist was Kartaltepe, that* other important hill which commanded the river bottom of the Arda. We took Kartaltepe in November and a month afterward, in one of their splendid sorties, the Turks, so far as I could learn, had taken it back; but it was as untenable for them as Papastepe was for the Bulgarians. Possibly because it was again ours and very evidently ours permanently, the Bulgarian censors had found it worth while to confound skepticism and persistent unfriendly rumors by allowing the correspondents to enter the promised land of their dreams, where for weeks, between the batteries on the hills and the infantry in the muddy river bottom of the Arda, hell had raged in the winter rains. We did not know then, as we were to know a few days later, that beyond Kartaltepe in the direction of Delegatch was another force isolated from the Adrianople garriscm^a^a^nievmain Turkish army, that/of Xaver P,as with 10.000 men, caught in the literal flood of that 100-yard dash of the ready, informed, prepared aggressor against the unready enemy taken un aware and hastening re-enforcements to the scattered garrisons and trying to adjust itself for the blow to fall with the crash of a pile driver released from its clutch.

Do you seethe Adrianople garrison (which was inrtouclj by wireless with the,Turkish main army) striking out to connect up with Taver Pasha? Do you see Taver Pasha trying out lines of least resistance in a savage effort to reach Adrianople or the main Turkish army? Something to stir the blood, this, in the way j f \ war drama, while not a single foreign correspondent or attache knew even of the existence of Taver Pasha's command Until its surrender. The news of this was conveyed with the. official assurance that now" no other Turkish force except that of Adrianople remained in Thrace, when we had been under the impression for over a month that It was the only one! The censors did not smile as they posted the bulletin, but some of the correspondents smiled—at themselves. No, after the first rainbow hope of a successful general attack was over, Ivanoff was fully occupied in holding Adrianople safely in siege. That battery of old Krtipps, which fired over the advanced Servian infantry position, while a battery of Crejisotr in turn fired over it, added'their items o£ evidence to the same end. These Krupps were taken* by the Russians at Plevna in the war of 1877« 78 and given to the little army of the new nation of Bulgaria. Bulgarian recruits had dragged them through the muddy rt»ads and over the pastures and beautifully emplaced them, and were working them against the enemy with boyish pride. But the world wa thinking only of the modern Creusots and their brilliant showing. The Bulgarians almost proved that you can make bricks without straw. They won the war by the bravery of their: self-confidence as Well as by their courage. Adrianople, which was about to starve if it did not fail, had, I am convinced, two months' supplies when the armistice was signed. With the Id and 20-year-old conscripts already on the way to the front, with a casualty list that is, easily one-fifth of the whole army, there was no sign of weakening. The square chin of the stoical Bulgarian'was as firmly set as ever., I wonder what would happen in Europe if it included in its borders a nation of 100,000,000 Bulgarians! * The six powers are urging Turkey to abandon Adrianople and to accept in principle the terms proposed by the Balkan allies at the last session of the peace conference. It was learned from a semi-official source that Great Britain, France and Russia, the triple entente, and Germany, Austria-Hungary and Italy, of the triple alliance through secret diplomacy, are advising the porte to accept the proposal of the allies* because for Turkey to refuse would cause the Balkan war to be resumed, and resumption of hostilities might endanger the peace of the rest of Europe, always admittedly precarious. Diplomats admitted that the situation was a most delicate and difficult one, because the militarists of Constantinople and the Young Turks are advocating the breaking off of negotia* tions renewal of hostilities.

That 99 pet cent, of all the cocaine and morphine * manufactured in ttys country is used by persons who have formed the drug habit through physicians' prescriptions is the startling statement made by Dr. L .

This statement, and others, proving that physicians and not "patent" medicines are responsible for the appalling growth of drug addiction in tbe United States was made by Dr. Kebler in an address at Washington, before the American Society for the Study of Alcohol, and Narcotics. Dr. Kebler is quoted by Washington papers as having declared that drug using had increased 100 per cent, in the last 40 years, and that American medical men were not discriminating enough in their use of opiates. Their overindulgence to their patients, he said, is creating thousands of drug users every year. "It is a very sad thing to say that our physicians are doing the greatest work in promoting the use of cocaine and morphine," said the doctor. "State laws are not saving the public from the grip of the drug habit, and the American public is sinking tighter anji tighter Into the black abyss of the morphine and cocaine fiend. "The worst of it is that the importation of opium into the country is becoming larger and larger year by year. - I nave heard it said on reliable authority that 99 per cent, of the cocaine and morphine manufactured in this country is used by persons who have forme^ the habit through doctors' prescriptions." •'-Almost siniultaneousJy with Dr. Kebler's address, Dr. J.

(By G. B. SUDWORTH.) The wood user's need of a reliable means of recognizing commercial woods has become greatly emphasized in recent years because of the enormous demand for standard kinds and species of woods. This increased use is necessitating, in some cases, the substitution of similar or entirely different woods for. many of the wellknown and long-used ones, the supplies of which no longer meet the demand. Some of the substitutes offered are as good as standard timbers, while others are inferior to them. However this may be, the frequent discovery by consumers that they have not received the woods ordered has led to a great many difficulties and to serious controversies involving expensive lawsuits. In many instances manufacturers believe that in substituting, for example, the woods of several different species of ffhe white oak for that of the true white oak, they are doing no injustice to purchasers, and this belief is reasonably supported by facts. Much depends upon the uses made of the timber. No one could deny that for some purposes the woods of the con oak, overcup oak, post oak, bur oak and 1 Blue Oak. The Rate of Gro This Tree Requires From Fifteen to Twenty Years to Grow One Inch in Diameter. stant work has made him familiar, his knowledge of other woods is necessarily limited, Cdnfronted with the necessity cf distinguishing the few oak woods he knows from a larger number of different species, the characters he has long and safely relied upon are often insufficient because they may be common to the wood of some of the oaks with which he is unfamiliar. Thus a carefully selected, well-seasoned piece of water oak (Q. nigra) may be so similar in color and general appearance to some grades of white oak as to deceive not a few unacquainted with the structural characteristics of all our oaks. Another difficulty that may be encountered by one who depends entirely upon an empirical knowledge of woods is to prove his convictions regarding the identity of a wood. For 'Want of exact knowledge of the anatomical characteristics of the wood in question, he can only insist upon his opinion. It happens in actual practice that one inspector passes as white oak a shipment composed of white oak, black oak and red oak, and his judgment is challenged by another inspector, yet in such an event neither is able to do more than assert his opinion. It must not be understood that a study of the structural characters of woods always renders identification easy. It is sometimes extremely di/fl-I cult to find characters that distinguish the woods of closely related 'trees, which may be abundantly distinct in their flowers, fruit and foliage. It is comparatively easy to point out simple characters which distinguish oak from other woods. Moreover, it is not difficult to find characters that will separate the white oaks (annual fruiting species) from the black and red oaks (biennial fruiting species). The task, however, of pointing out easily observed distinctions that can be relied upon to separate the woods of different species of white oaks, black oaks and red oaks is difficult, and, in a few instances, impossible without the aid of the high magnifying power of a ~" cinnp&mi4^niicroscdpe. This is because some of the mTnute structural chaTacflwamp white oak are as good as that of white oak. But the substitution, for example, of the somewhat similar black and red" oaks for true white oak is less easily defended, because these substitutes are very different in quality from atiy of the white-oak woods. With numerous oaks, therefore, as with man£ other woods, the consumer has " occasion- to distinguish, such superficial characters as color, feel, odor, hardness, weight, etc., cannot, be depended upon alone as distinctive^ because they vary not only with tfcs age of the tree but also according to the soil in which the tree grew and the ^season and manner of cutting. The butt log differs from the top log, , the heartwood from the B&pwood, and the wood of a rapidly grown tree from that of a less rapidly grown one of the same species.

It is not aloLe the aching back, the stiff, painful joints, but the evil effect of bad. poisoned blood on the nerves, the vital organs and the digestion. The condition of the kidneys makes good health or ill-health. , The kidneys are the filters of the--blood. Active kidneys filter from the blood every day over one ounce of poisonous waste and pass it off dissolved in the urine. If the kidneys are weak or diseased, only part of this filtering is done and the blood is heavy with uric acid and other poisonous or waste matter. > Instead of being nourished by the blood, the nerves and vital organs are irritated, and the circulation, digestion, etc., are disturbed. If your back aches constantly, if your joints are stiff, lame and painful, suspect the kidneys. Kidney sufferers are likely to feel dull, heavy, restless at night, rheumatic, dizzy at times, subject to headaches and annoyed with sharp, piercing pains that make work an agony and rest impossible. Doan's Kidney Pills are the best-recommended and most widely used remedy for weak or diseased kidneys. They act quick-., ly; contain no poisonous nor habit-form^ ing drugs and leave no bad after-affects of any kind—just make you feel better all over.

This was in ful- December 31, 1912. To the People of the State of Michigan, and their Forty-Seventh Legislature: Section five of Article six of the Constitution of the State ot Michigan, relating to the viuties of the Governor, is. as follows: "He shall communicate by message to the legislature, and at the close of his official term to the incomif^g legislature, the condition of the stata and ecommend such measures as he may deem expedient." Obedient to that mandate of the people, I find satisiaction in reporting to you that, although the state had a deficit two years ago to the amount of near amillion dollars and was consequently in disgrace, it is now out of debt and has a surplus in the treasury of near a million dollars. The rate/Of taxation haF been lowered and should continue to lessen Hundreds cf millions of dolinrs in property have been added to the tax rolls. More should be added at once. Conditions throughput the %tate are good. Institutional and departmental efficiency has increased. New economies are being practiced and there/are many others that may be resor<ed to. Progressive laws should be enacted comprehending more equal taxation and the assessment of porperty tangible and intangible now escaping taxation; insuring greater purity and honesty in election^ and returns; conserving the rights of the masses and improving their conditions; divorcing the organised Mquor interests from_ politics; practically alul effecTiveTy checking the devastation of alcohol, the too easy supply and consequent excessive use of ^nich cause measureless misery; realizing the responsibility of the strong to k h ^ w e a k , the duties of public brotherhood and of the state- ia all of its citizens; concentrating responsibility in visible officials chosen by votes in wieldy election districts; and keeping step with the onward match of better public business, highe- humanism, applied ethics and pure morals. There is little danger that such new and needful legislation will be created too rapidly for practical adjustment to it of the life artd affaire of the state, but heed to this^may well be given. It may also be retnembered that the form of government is best that is best administered. I do not need to urge you, as legisaltors, to whom has been delegated all the power of the people of Michigan ^whose average of citizenship is the highest in the world, to be true to j-our trust, because I have faith that you will be. I do not need to suggest to ^ o u that citizenship should take precedure of partisanship aft that the welfare of the state is to be thought of before any consideration 11$ given to party politics, because you are as well seized of these axioms as I am. I do not need to request your respectful and patriotic oo-eperation with the distinguished citizen who has just been inaugurated Governor of the State, because you will contribute such an attitude of your own free will. And I do not need to obtrude a long message of suggested Ailment of the understanding when he legislation which would only tend to confUBe the new order if remembered, 8nd be of l o value if forgotten, because I have conferred with Governor Ferris and he understands the needs of the state as 7 see them. My administration of affairs is my message to the people. Now permit me, in closing, to quote the eighth versp of the fourth chapter of the Epistle of Paul, the Apostle, to the Phillipians, upon which may pafely be builded the strong and permananistructure cf state and in which may be discovered a- safe_ rule of guidance for every action: "Finally," brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever assumed the premiership after the assassination of Premier Canalejas. The ministry includes some discordant elements, and King Alfonso requested the count to form a new government. • • * The London (England) taxlcab drivers began the new year with a strike which takes 5,000 out of 8,000 taxis oft the streets. *The strike is the result of the increa&ecL cost of gasoline, or petrol, as it is called there.— 0 0 0 ^ Personal Rear.

The Indrakula, With a Big Hple in Her Side, Headed for the Beach and Grounded in Time to Save Her Crew, After being rammed by the British steamer Indrakula off Tangier bar in the Chesapeake bay, the tramp steamship Julia Luckenbach was practically split in twain and foundered. Though within easy wireless reach of 10 steamers, 14 lives were lost after a desperate battle with the seas. Among the drowned are Captain H . A . Gilbert and Mrs. Gilbert. Captain Gilbert and Mrs. Gilbert lived at Raspeburg, near Baltimore. Nineteen of the crew, were lost Eight were saved by the steamer Pennsylvania, and six others were rescued by the Indrakula according to a wireless message received at Newport News from the revenue cutter Apache, which went to the Indrakula's assistance. First Officer Hunt, half crazed by his terrible fight for life, and by the remembrance of the tragedy through which he had passed, at first said that 22 persons had gone down with the ship, but subsequently it was learned that only 28 in all were on bqard the Luckenbach including the crippled wife of Captain Gilbert. The Luckenbach sank five minutes after the Indrakula, coming out of the fog, dealt her a death blow. Only those on the top deck had time to escape. First Officer Frederick Hunt and seven members of the crew climbed into the rigging and hung there for six hours in the terrible cold until the Danish liner Pennsylvania rescued them. The others, caught below decks, died without knowing what nau Happened. A Representative W7 illiam Wr. Wede meyer, of Ann Arbor, Mich., who suddenly went insane at Colon, Panama, at the time of President Taft's recent visit to the isthmus, jumped overboard from a ship on which he* had been taken at Colon. ' The ^essel was the Panama of the Panama"line. ,~<:* Tjhe news was received by the w*ar department by wireless. At the same time that news w a s received of Wedenaeyer's' death his colleagues, in the house received 'a cable from Panam,a that he was en roufce to Washington in charge of an attendant. He was reported as having suicidal mania., Wedecneyerfs close friends say that a few days before leaving for the isthmus he fell and struck his head on an icy sidewalk. It was not regarded as serious and did not deter him from going with the congressional party. The Indrakula, with a big hole in her side, backed away from the sinking ship and headed for the beach. She was grounded in time for all of her crew to be saved. The Luckenbach reached the capes late Thursday. She ran into the gale blowin'g but was able to make the passage into tiie Chesapeake bay. She was slowly working her way up the bay when the Indrakula, driven at a high rate of speed by the gale, bore down on the Luckenbach and the collision occurred. D Y N A M I T E R S T O Q O F R E E . If They Can Raise Sum Required— Ryan Must Furnish $70,000 Bail. Attorneys for the imprisoned dynamite conspirators won a victory in the U . S. court of appeals in Chicago when a writ of supersedeas was granted them and an order issued for the release of the prisoners on bonds from the federal prison at Leavenworth, Kan. A l l will be released, it is believed, except Hockin. Attorney Zoline presented the petition in behalf of the convicted ironworkers, and argued in supports of it, as did Attorney Krum. Zoline declared that in cases such as the present the prisoners have the right of bail, particularly as the defendants were sentenced and sent to Leavenworth before a hearing on a writ of eror had been held.

He and his little sister and brother scouted for help, but no one responded. While the ice was breaking away beneath Morley's grasp the other children took off their skates and ran to a store 6fr rods away, where they secured help. In the meantime Morley was fighting to keep the swift current from dragging him under the ice, which kept breaking as he clutched it. Just as the boy was about to be drawn under the ice Jatnes Howard slipped a pole under him and hauled him out. The boy° dropped from exhaustion and was carried to the store, where restoratives were administered. ^pro- March 15 for Extra Session. As the result of the conferences between President-elect Wilsdn and democratic leaders in congress during the holidays, these features of the democratic legislative program have been tentatively agreed upon: Congress will be called in extraordinary session March 15 to revise the tariff. A complete scheme of tariff revision will be laid before a caucus of the democratic members of the new house early next March by the democratic members of the ways and means committee. This will include an income tax if the constitutional amendment on this subject has been ratified by threefourths of the states, and an excise tax if it has not. It will also include the administrative features of the' new law embracing a substitute for the present maximum and minimum clause. Any changes in the internal revenue taxes made necessary by reductions in the customs tariff also wiH be laid before the caucus, The democratic caucus will decide whether the schedules will be reported and passed by the house separately or as one bill.

He goes to New York and there witnesses the abduction of Agatha Redmond. Hambleton sees Agatha f°r \l* bly taken aboard a yacht. He secures ia tug and when near the yacht drops overboard. Aleck Van Camp, friend of Hambleton, had an appointment with him. Not meeting Hambleton, he makes a call 'upon friends, Madame and Miss Melanle Reynier. With the latter, Van Camp is very much In love. C H A P T E R IV.—Continued. "I think my proposition a prior one, he remarked with dogged precision; "but, of course, Miss Reyuier must decide." He recovered his temper enough to add, quite pleasantly, considering the circumstances, "Unless Madame Reynier will take my part?" turning to the older woman. "Oh, no, not fair/* shouted Jones. "Madame Reynier's always on my side. Aren't you, Madame?" Madame Reynier smiled inscrutably. "I'm always on the side of virtue in distress," she said. "That's me, then, isn't it? The way you're abusing me, Madomoiselle, listening here to Van Camp all the eve- DingTw ' , But Melanie, tired, perhaps, of being patiently tactful, settled the matter. "I can't go to luncheon with anybody, tomorrow," she protested. ' T v e had a tough of that arch-enemy, indigestion, you see; and I can't do anything but my prescribed exercises, nor drink anything but distilled water—" "Nor eat anything but food! We know," cried the irrepressible Jones. "But the Little Gray Fox has a special diet for Just such cases as yours. Do come!" "Heavens! Then I donVwant to go thereJ" groaned Aleck. Melanie gave Jones her hand, half in thanks and half in farewell. "No, thank you, not tomorrow, but sometime soon; perhaps Thursday. W i l l that do?" she smiled. Then, as Jones was discontentedly lounging about the door, she aid a pretty thing. Turning from the door, she stood with-face averted from everybody except Van Camp, and for an instant her eyes met his in a friendly, half-humorous but wholly non-committal glance. His eyes held hers in a look that was like an embrace. "I will see you soon," she said quietly. Van Camp said good-night to Jones at the WrrierT^after they had walked together in silence for half a block. "Good-night, Van Camp," said Jones; then he added cordially; , c B y the way, I'm, going back next week in my private car to watch the opening of the Liza L u , and I'd be mighty glad if you'd go along. Anything else to do?" "Thanks—extremely; but I'm going on a cruise." As Aleck entered the piously exclusive hail of the club his good nature came to his aid. He wondered whether he hadn't scored something, after all. C H A P T E R V. Melanie's Dreams* Midnight and the relaxation of slumber could subtract nothing from the high-browed dignity of the club officials, and the message that was waiting for Mr. Van Camp was delivered In the most correct manner. "Mr, Hambleton sends word to Mr. Van Camp that he has gone away on the Jeanne D'Arc. Mr. Hambleton may not be back for some time, and requests Mr. Van Camp to look after the Sea Gull." "Very well, thajak you,*' replied Aleck, rather absent-mindedly. He was unable to see, immediately, just what change ip his own plans this sudden turn of Jim's would cause; and he was for the moment too deeply 'preoccupied with his own personal ^ITairg to speculate much about i t His thoughts went back to the events of the eve* nlng, recalled the picture of his Diana and her teasing ways, and dwelt especially upon the honest, friendly, wholly bewitching look that had flown to him at the end of the evening. Absurd; as his own attempt at a declaration had been, he somehow felt that he himself was not absurd in Melanie's eyes, though he was far from certain whether she was inclined to marry him'. * Aleck, on his part, had not come to hit. decision suddenly or impulsively; nor. skying arrived* there, was bo to ly desired Melanie Reynier for a wife, yet on the whole he was a very cool Romeo. He was manly, but,he was calculating; he was honorably disposed toward matrimony, hut he was not reborn with love. And so, in the sober bedroom of the club, he quickly fell into the good sleep induced by fatigue and healthy nerves. Morning, brought counsel and a disposition to renew operations. A note* was dispatched to his Diana by a private messenger, and the boy was bidden to wait for an answer. It came presently: ^ r "Come at twelve, if you wish. H " M E L A N I E R E Y N I E R . " Aleck smiled with satisfaction. Here was a wise venture going through happily, he hoped. He was pleased that she had named the very hour he had asked for the night before. That was like her good, frank way of meeting a situation, and it augured well for the unknown emergencies of their future life. He had little patience with timidity and traditional coyness in women, and great admiration for an -open and fearless spirit. Melanie's note almost set his heart thumping. But not quite; and no one understood the cool nature of that organ better than Melanie herself^^The ladies in the apartment at nH^Archangel had lingered at their breakfast, the austerity of which had been mitigated by a center decoration of orchids and fern, fresh-touched ' with dew; or so Madame Reynier had described them to Melanie, as she brought them to her with the card of Mr. Lloyd-Jones. Mlrs Reynier smiled faintly, admired the blossoms and turned away. The ladies usually spoke French with each other, though occasionally Madame Reynier dropped Into the harsher speech of her native country. On this morning she did this, telling Melanie, for the tenth time in as many days, that in her opinion they ought to be going home., Madame > considered this her dutytg and felt no realresponsibility after the statement was made. Nevertheless, she was glad to find Melanie disposed to discuss the matter a little further, "Do you wish to go home, Auntie, or is it that you think I ought to go?" "I don*t wish to go without you, child, you know that; and i am very comfortable here. But his Highness, your cousin, is very impatient; I see that in everyr letter from Krolvetz. You offended him deeply by putting off your marriage to * Count Lorenzo, and every day now deepens his indignation against you. I don't like to discuss these things, Melanie, but I suspect that your action deprives him of a very necessary revenue; and I understand, better than you do, to what lengths your cousin is capable of going when he is displeased. Tou are, tfy't&e law of your country, his ward until you marry. Would it not be better to submit to him in friendship, rather than to incur his enmity? After all, he is your next of kin, the head of your family, and a very powerful man. If we are going home at all%we ought to go now." "But suppose we should decide not to go home at all?" "You will have to go some time, dear child. Tou are all alone, except for me, and In the nature of things you can't have me always. Now that you are young, you think it an easy thing to break away from the ties of blood and birth; but believe me, it isn't easy. You, with your nature, could never do i t The call of the land is strong, and the time will come when you will long to go home, long to go back to the land where your father led his soldiers, and where your mother was admired and loved." Madame Reynier paused and watched her niece, who, with eyes cast down, was toying with with her spoon. Suddenly a crimson flush rose and spresdrover Melanie's cheeks and forehead *nd neck, and when she looked up into Madame Reynier's face, she was gazing through unshed tears. She rose quickly, came round.to the talr and hissed her "They aren't so much in Mr. Lloyd- Jones' style as these," replied Madame Reynier. She had a faculty of commenting pleasantly without the least hint of criticism. This remark delighted Melanie. "No; I should never picture Mr. Lloyd-Jones as a garden pink. Burthen, Auntie, you remember how eloquent he was about the hills and the stars. That speech did not at all indicate a,hothouse nature." "Nevertheless, I think his sentiments have bteen cultivated, like his orchids." "Not Ianie. There was an interval of silence, while the younger woman stood looking out of the window and Madame Reynier cut the leaves of a French journal. She did not read, however, and presently she broke the silence "I don't remember that Mr. Van Camp ever sent orchids to you." "Mr. Van Camp never gave me any kind of flower. He thinks flowers are the most intimate of all gifts, and should only be exchanged between sweethearts. At least, I heard him expound some such theory years ago, when we first knew him." Madame smiled—a significant smile, if any one had been looking. Nothing further was said until Melanie unexpectedly shot straight to the mark with: —"How do you, tatnk ho would do, "But I'm not going to say 'yes;' at least, I don't think I am. Do sit down." Aleck started straight for the gilt chair. lOh, no; not that! You are four times too. big for that chair. Besides, it's quite valuable; it's a Louis Quinze." Aleck indulged in a vicious kick at the ridiculous thing, picked up , an enormous leather-bottomed chair made apparently of lead, and placed it jauntily almost beside Miss Reynier's chair, but facing the other way. "This is much better, thank you," he said. "Now tell me why you think you are not going to say 'yes* to me." Melanie's mood of softness had not left her; but sitting there, face to face with this man, face to face with his seriousness, his masculine will and strength, she felt that she had something yet to struggle for, some deep personal right to be acknowledge. It was with a dignity, an aloofness, that was quite real, yet very sweet, that she met this American lover. He had her hand in his firm grasp, but he was waiting for her to speak. He was giving her the hearing that was, in his opinion, her right. "In the first place," Melanie began, "you ought to know more about rue— who j am, and all that sort of thing. I am, in one sense, not at all what I seem to be; and that, in the case of marriage, is a dangerous' thing." "It is an important thing, at least. But I do know who you are; I knew long ago. Since you never referred to the matter, of course I never did. You are the Princess Auguste Stephanie of Krolvetz, cousin of the present Duke Stephen, called King of Krola bad achievement," said Me^jfvetz. You are even in line for the throne, though there are two or three lives between. You have incurred (he displeasure of Duke Stephen and are practically an exile from your country." "A voluntary exile," Melanie corrected. "Voluntary only in the sense that you prefer exile to absolute submission to the duke. There is no alternative, if you return." Melanie was silent. Aleck lifted the hand which he held, touched it gently with his lips and laid it back beside its fellow on Melanie's lap. Then he rose and lifted both hands before her, half in fun and half, in earnestness, as if he were a courtier doing reverence to his queen. "See, your Highness, how ready 'I am to do you homage! Only smile on the triost dev^tt^ol_y^ujr_se^vants " Melanie could not resist his gentle gaiety. It was as if. they were two is cheek affectionately. "Dear Auntie, you are very good to me, and patient, too. It's all true, I suppose; but the prospect o f home and Count Lorenzo together—ah, well!" she smiled reassuringly and again caressed Madame Reynier's gaunt old face. "I'll think it all oyer, Auntie dear.**. Madame Reynier followed 'Melanie* into her sitting-room; bringing the precious orchids in her two hands, fearful lest the fragile vase should f a l l Melanle regarded them a moment, and then said she thought they would do better In the drawini-room. be-ta%e*^rr*m^ ^ sometime* think the H W e * ^ ^ was that he sincerely and affectionate* [pink quite as pretty as an orohM." Auntie, in place of Count Lorenzo?" Madame Reynier showed no surprise, "He is a sterling man; but your cousin would never consent to it." "And if I should not consult my cousin?" "My dear Melanie, that would entail many embarrassing consequences; and embarrassments are worse than crimes." Melanie could laugh at that, and did. "I've already answered a note from Mr. Van Camp this morning, Auntie, No, don't worry," she playfully answered a sudden anxious look that camo upon her aunt's countenance, "I've not said 'yes7 to him. But he's coming to see me at twelve. If I don't give him a chance to say what he has to say, he'll take one anywhere. He's capable of proposing on the street-cars. Besides, I have something also to say to him." "Well, my dear, you know best; certainly I think you know best," was Madame Reynier's last word. Mr. Van Camp arrived on the stroke of/twelve, an expression of happiness on his lean, quizzical face, "I'm supposed to be starting on a cruise," he told Melanie, "but luck is with me. My cousin hasn't turned up—or rather he turned up only to disappear Instantly.—otherwise he would have dragged me off to catch the first ebb-tide, with" me hanging back like an axichor-chain." "Is your cousin, then, such a tyrant?" "Oh, yes; he's a masterful man, Jimmy." "And how did he 'disappear instanU ly?' It sounds mysterious." i "It is mysterious, but Jim can take\ care of himself; at least, I hope he can. The message said he had sailed on the Jeanne D'Arc, whatever that Is, and that I was to look after our hired yacht, the Sea Gull." Melanie looked up, startled. "The Jeanne D'Arc, was it?" she cried. "Are you sure? But, of course—there must be many boats by that name, are there not? But did he say nothing more—where he was going, and why he changed his plans?" % "No, not a word more than that Why? Do you know of a boat named Ihe Jeanne D'Arc?" "Yes, very well; but it can not matter. It must be another vessel, surely. Meanwhile, what are you going to do without your companion?" ? Aleck rose from the slender' gilt chair where, as usual, he had perched himself, walked to ihe window and thrust his hands into his pockets for a contemplative moment, then he turned and came to a stand squarely before Melanie, looking down on her with his quizzical, honest eyes. "That depends, Melanie," he said slowly, "upon whether you are going to marry me or not" For a second or two Melanie's eyes refused to lift; but Aleck's firm-planted figure, his steady gaze, above all, his dominating will, forced her to look up. There he was, smiling, strong, bi$, kindly. Melanle started to smile, but for the second time* that morning her eyes unexpectedly filled with tears. "I can't talk to you towering over me like that," she said at last softly, her smile winning against the tears. Aleck did not move, •* d o n t w a n t yon to t a l k to'nie about i t ; all I want to for you to s a y ' y e a . ' w "Go away, Sophie," said Melanie "Serve luncheon lo Madame Reynier alone. I shall wait; and you'll have to wait, too, peer man!" She looked scrutinizingly at Aleck. "Or are you, perhaps, hungry? I'm not going to talk to a hungry man," she announced. "Not a bite till I've heard chapter thirty-nine!" said Aleck, In a moment she became serious again. "I have lived in England and here in America," she began, "long enough to understand that the differences between your people and mine are more than the differences of language and climate; they are ingrained in our. habits of thought, our education, our judgment of life and of people. My childhood and youth were wholly different from yours, or from what an American girl's could be; and yet I think I understand your American women, though I suppose I am not in the least like them "But I, on the other hand, have seen the dark side of life, and particularly of marriage. When I was a child 1 was more important in my own country than I am now, since it seemed then that my father would succeed to the throne. I was brought up to feel that I was not a woman, but a pawn in the game of politics. When I had been out of the convent for a year or more, I loved a youth, and was loved in return, , but our marriage was laughed at, put aside, declared impos sible, ^because he was qf a rank inferior to my own. My lover disappeared, I know not where or how Then affairs changed. My father died, and it transpired that I had been of ficiaHy betrothed since childhood to Duke Stephen's brother, the Count Lorenzo The duke was my guardian and there was no one else to whom I could appeal; but the very week set for the wedding I faced the duke and declared I would never marry tho count. His Highness raged and stormed, but I told him a few things 1 knew about his brother, and I made him see that I was in earnest. The next day I left Krolvetz, and the duke gave out that I was ill and had gone to a health resort; that the wedding was postponed. I went to France and hid myself with my aunt, took one of my own middle names and her surname, and have been known for some time, as you know, as Melanie Reynier." "I know you wish to tell me .all these things, Melanie, but I do noi want you to recalT painful matters of the past now," said Aleck gently "You shall tell me of them at another time." ThP color hriphlpnpd in Melanln's children playing at a story. Aleck, in such a mood as this, was as mu<jh fun as a dancing bear, and In five minuses more he had won peals of laughter from Melanie. It was what he wanted —to brighten her spirits. So present- -iy he cam& back to the big chairs though he did not again take her hand. "I knew you were titled and important, Melanie, and at first I thought that sealed my case entirely. But you seemed to forget your state, seemed not to care so very much about Jt; and perhaps that mado me think it was possible for us both to forgetjjt, or at least to ignore It I havenl a gold throne to give you; but you're the only woman I've ever wanted to marry, and I wasn't going to give up the chance until you said soA' "Do you know also that if I marry out of my rank and without th<l consent of Duke Stephen, I shall forfeit all my fortune?" | "'Cut off without a cent!'" Aleck laughed, but presently paused, embarrassed for the first time since he had begun his pica. "I, you know, haven't millions, but thore's a decent income, even tt>r two. And then I can always go to work and earn something," he smiled at her, "giving information to a thirsty world about the gill-slit, as you call it. It would be fun, earning money for you; I'd like to do i t " Melanie smiled back at him, bat left her chair and wandsred uneasily about the room, as if turning a difficult matter over in her mind. Aleck stood by, watching. Presently she returned to her cha1r>jmshed him gently back into his seat amhdropped down beside him.* Before she spoke, she touched her fingers lightly, almost lovingly, along the blue veins of his big hand lying on the arm of the chair. The hand turned, like a magnet spring, and imprisoned hers. "No, dear friend, not yet," said Melanie, drawing away her hand, yet not very quickly, after all. "There is much yet to say to you, and I have been wondering how to say it, but I shall do it now. Like the heroes in the novels," she smiled again. " I am going to tell you the story of my life." "Good!" said Aleck. " A l l ready for chapter one. But your maid wants you at the door." face, her eyes glowed. "No, not another time; you must understand- now, especially because all this preface l£ads me to what I really want to say to you. It is this: I do not now care for the man I loved at nineteen, nor formally of the other men of my country who have been pleased to- honor me-with their regard But ever since those early days I have had a dream of a home—a place different from Duke Stephen's home, different from the homes of many people of my rank. My dream has a husband in it who is a companion, a friend, my equal in love, .my superior in strength." Melanie's eyes lifted to meet Aleck's, and they were full of an almost tragic passion; but it was a passion for comprehension and love, not primarily for the man sitting before her. She added simply: "And for. ray dream I'd give all the wealth, all the love, I have." The room was very still. Aleck Van Camp sat quiet and grave, his fore*y head resting on his hand. "lie looked up, finally, at Melanie, who was beside him, pale and quite worn. 'Toor child! You needed me more than I thought!" was what he said. Rut Melani * had not quite finished ^No, that is noX-enough,-that I should need you. Ycu must also need me. want what I alone can give yod, match my love with yours. And this, 1 think, you do not do. You calculate, you remain "cool, you plan your life like a campaign, and I am part of your equipment You are a thousand times better than Count Lorenzo, but I think your principles of reasoning are the same. You do not love me enough, and that is why I can not say yes." Aleck had taken this last blow standing.

Perhaps it is the indisputable authority possessed hy the hand that wields the rules or the nonchallant display of wisdom on topics surrounded by the most inaccessible difficulties to the small boy and girl. They will nearly always tell their ambitions to a well liked teacher, and one rath,er surprising declaration was given by a little maid in one of Mis,s Clara Townsen d's room before she became principal of the James school. Among tho special favors coveted by the youngsters is the permission to stay behind after school and clean the blackboards. One evening a little girl was given the desired privilege, and while engaged in the task she struck up a shy sor^ of conversation with Miss Tawnsend. Finally the usual confession was made. "When I grow up, I am going to be a teacher," she announced. "That so?" pleasantly- asked Miss Townsend. "And why do you want to be a teacher?" "Well," was the rather surprising answer, "I'll have to be either a teacher or a lady, and I would rather be a teacher."—Indianapolis News. Shopper's Cramp. .

He was literally henpecked off the throne by this "anvil chorus." Stranger adventures probably never i>efel a man, even in the realms of fiction, than have been the lot of this native of Newcastle, .England. While hunting in the jungle in British East Africa, he fell asleep and was captured by the "black men," who took him before their king. He fought that potentate and "licked" him; became the ruler in his stead, Jbecause'of' the attachment for him of a sacred monkey ,and entered into full T"oyal possession, including a dusky harem. And his sixteen wives, according to his own statempnt, "henpecked* him off the throne and out of the "kingdom.* Gilhesple's mates on the Royal Prince, an African coast tradiifg vessel on which the ex-king is second engineer, corroborate his story in many of its details. Resides, the Englishman still retains that—f-H-N4^e—loo which marks, the man with the "tyrant wife$—or wives—the world over.

I was born in Newcastle, England, and Ferved my apprenticeship at Hawthorn es. Nine years ago—I am now twenty-eight—I entered the service of the Prince line. At thp_Jiine^of my adventure I was, as I am now, the second engineer on the Royal Prince, trading from Mombasa to New York. 1 had ofton touched at East African "fioris, and for a long time had wante d to do some big game shooting, 1 want to say right, now, though, that *my desires along that line are fully satisfied. Never again will 1 desert the paths of civilization. I might be made king again. Vgh! ' Rut to continue with my story. At Mombasa I obtained the necessary leave, and with a guide set out. for the jungle. We soon came upon the trail of elands, and followed it for some hours. Eventually, when the trail became stronger, my guide suggested that we separate so that we could come on the game from two ^ides. We followed this plan, and hence my "kingly'—and henpeckedadventure. For an hour I followed the track of the game, and then found that I was lost. I shouted and fired my gun several times, in i h e hopes that the guide would hear me, but all to no purpose. 1 was lost, and so had to make the best of it. For a time I tried to retrace my steps, but only made matters *0orse, and evidently had wandered far into the jungle. When almost worn out by hunger and my long tramft I lay down for a little rest. Lands on King's Solar Plexus. I don't know how long I had b e ^ asleep, when I was"~awakened by rough shake of thje shoulder. I openedVmy eyes, and there before me, stood the most villainous bunch of natives it has ever befallen to my lot to see. They had already taken possession of my rifle and revolver, so that when they motioned for me to follow their leader there was nothing else to do. Resides, 1 was so nearly famished that I would have gone anyhow in the nope that they/would give me something to eat. The march led to their village, and there I was presented to the king, a big black "bullet head" individual who sat In an old arm chair, probably secured from some seaport town. Over this chair was thrown a lion's skin: •Ftott natives kowtowed to their monarch, and bade me do likewise. I wouldn't make an obeisance, and by eigne so declared. Then they tried to force "me to bow. Instead, they started about the* prettiest little row yon ever saw.

W h e n I had "knocked out" the Idng I expected that all Ms subjects would rush me and try to kill me; that they didn't I have only fate to thank. As the scowls gathered blackest on those dusky faces a little monkey that had been sitting on the arm of the chair— the throne, I mean—ran out to where I was standing and, jabbering as if it had met an old friend, climbed up to my shoulder, nestling contentedly against my cheek. That instant a great change came over the "populace." As one man the natives prostrated themselves before But at that monies* say chief thought was food, so I bade the medicine man, who understood a few words of English, to hurry through the initiatory ceremony and have my "chef" prepare me so/ne food haetanter. As I ravenously devoured the fruit and baked ground nuts that were brought to me, the old man in his sadly damaged English informed me how I came to be made king. It seems that the monkey, which had perched on my shoulder, was a sort of a personification of a god the natives worshiped, and which lived in the jungle. When the monkey ran out to me and climbed "up my sleeve, it was a sign, so the natives thought, that the god had chosen me for their ruler. Here I was king, and it looked to me as if I had best exercise the prepogatlves of my office until I had a chance to get back to civilization. Besides, I was a bit curious to^see just what kind of a king I would^make. So T decided to stay on the job, for a while anyhow. Haggling for Lions' Teeth On. That night I retired to my palace, a hut built of weeds and grasses My queens, whose apartments were in two huts separated from the palsce, did not bother me that night, but the next morning- when I started out for a stroll, all sixteen crowded around. The ringleader, or, I should;Vsay, my supposed favored wife—she was the fattest, and in African social' circles that is the mark of beauty in women acted as spokeswoman. I couldn't understand a word.she said, so called my friend the medicine man and he, with much,kowtowing, interpreted.3 Serinefineh-—that was my "favorite's" name; it means "peace." but I think Sen's father must have laughed in ghoulish glee at the practical joke he was playing on some poor, unfortunate man when he named her —Sennenneh called me the "light of the sun" and other pretty, names. I was suspicious all the time that she wasn't compMmeating me for nothing, and when she pointed to those lions' teeth that ercircUd her fat neck and the fifteen others followed suit, I knew I was in for irouble. There followed a lot of gibberish which was interpreted as meaning that my. sixteen wives expected mo to show j n v appreciation of their devotion by"providing more lions' teeth. Talk about a man being henpecked by one wife!

'Joe Tinker and Fielder Jones. — During the recent annual meeting of the American league, held in Chicago, two players of national fame met by chance and .held a "fanning bee." Tinker, who has signed as manager of the Cincinnati Reds, was for years the star shortstop of the champion Cubs, and Jones, who is now president of the pacific Northwest league, was manager and center fielder of the White Sox. R E D S T O G E T S T A R P I T C H E R American League Twirler Part of Price for Release of Chance— Has Three Good Ones. Joe Tinker, who has signed his contract as manager of the Cincinnati club, expects^to have one of the leading pitching~staffs in the Rational league. He now hrs three high class, men in Suggs, Benion and Fromme, and looks for a fourth from the Amer. ican league. Of course, I tried to stop thorn, but there are some things that even a king is powerless to do, and that was one of them. Finally, with my head swimming from the concentrated chatter of mv harem, I fled to my throne. There * rested in peace., but when the fear of fever in the night air flna_lly_drove me Lfore ihe_basehail season-begins. He There stood lainous bunch before me almost of natives. vilme, beating their heads on the ground and uttering weird cries that frightened me more than had the fight. After this had kept up for a few moments an old chap with a big staff, the head carved in the shape of a strange bird, came toward me and kowtowed. Then he pointed to me and next to the throne. Finally it began to dawn upon me that I had been chosen to succeed the'king I had just "deposed." As I walked toward the throne the natives chanted some sort of a song that made me regret I had a cultivated ear for music. I didn't wonder that it ^brought all the men, women and children who had missed the fight rushing to the scene, nor that under its influence the former king—I was really "It" now—returned to con sciousness. He gave one look at me as I sat perched oh- the throne, the monkey still clinging...to my shoulder, and then he looked in the direction of the "palace" door just back of the throne. He didn't wait for any parting words.- but with a shriek that threatened to endanger my ear drums fled to the forest. His departure was hastened by the tumultuous cheering his former subjects sent after him. Sixteen Black Wives in Doorway, After he had disappeared among the trees 1 looked curiously about me. As my glance reached the doorway of my "palace" the sight caused me to half rise. There, in a semi-circle in the doorway, sat sixteen women—the blackest I had ever seen. Their skirts of red flowered calico, cut short and on the bias, were about their only article of apparel, unless one would include under that name their anklets, bracelets and nose rings and earrings of brass. Then about the neck of each hung great, necklaces of lion's teeth. It was quite evident, I figured, judging from the number each woman wore, that lions' teeth were away above par in my new kingdom. As I looked at them—and they returned my glances with wifely grins —I began to think I had been mistaken in my premise that the old king had fled from fear of me. It looked as if he had seen a good chance to .'"'duck" from those sixteen* queens and had taken i t I almost envied him right then, and before my three weeks on the throne were up my envy waa unadulterated—It was greeneyed. back to the palace the whole harem yented its pent up spleen upon my poor heajtK Henpecked 6ff Throne. It was terrible, and so one night, after-1 had been tempted to murder about sixteen of them—meani-ng all—I slipped out the palace door" with my rifle in my "hand and silently fled through the forest—literally henpecked off my throne. I had gone but a few yards when I heard, a noise behind me and the sacred monkey came running down the path, As I picked it up a sound smote my ears that made my blood run cold. It was made by my sixteen wives in hot pursuit of their deserting husband. I took but one glance toward the clearing in front of the palace; directly toward me the sixteen' were headedr "Peace" in the lead. 1 waited for no more, but dived into. . the thick underbrush and ran for my p life. A l l night 1 stumbled through the jungle, with the monkey as my only guide. The monkey was again my salvation, and it led me to a path that I followed all the next day. is expected to be a prominent hurler Ordained king; of the tribe. About sunset, when I was famishing for lood and water, I came on tho camp of an English hunting party, and staid with it until we reached Mombasa. It's a strange story, hut it is true. And if Sophie—that la the sacred monkey's name now—could only speak, she would confirm every word of how I was made a king and then henpecked off my throne. I had royalty thrust upon me, and one trial was enough. Never again! " Pitcher Fromme. In the younger organization. Herrmann is enthusiastic over the deal, and believes the new twirler will aid Tinker immensely in keeping the Reds at the top of the first division in the National league race. "I felt confident all along that I would secure Tinker," said Herrmann, •and now that it is all over I believe I got the better of the deal. Three Df the five players we have released to the Cubs we couldn't use. We never had Corridon, we wouldn't have retained Knisely and Humphries isn't fast enough for major league company. Mitchell has been a faithful, hard working player in the Reds' employ, but we had to let him go to swing the deal.

While the senate did not countenance plaving in. organized ball or as a regular thing, its stand is that occasional playing on organized fceams for money is not wrong. The University of Illinois recommends the amendment of rule 5 so that it shall read as follows: " A student shall be ineligible to represent his college or university i n any intercollegiate athletic contest under the following conditions: "(A)—If he is or has been a mem-, ber of any team playing under the national agreement of professional baseball clubs or has engaged in contest* with teams playing under this agree- * ment. "(B)—If he is or has been a member of any so-called outlaw team. l"(C)—If he has played on any team' regularly for a salary, so that playing has been his vocation or principal calling for the period of his association with said team. "(D)—If he has ever drawn a salary for nominal service in some alleged employment while his athletic work has been really his main service. "(E)—If he is or has at any time during his college course been a member of any athletic team of any athletic lub. "(F)—If he Is receiving or has at any time received compensation as coach, trainer or instructor in physical training. "(G)—If in term time he engages; in athletic contests as a representative of any athletic organization not connected with the college." The University of Illinois also proposes that in place of an eligibilitycommittee i n each university, which passes on eligibility of students in that university, there be created a single committee from the various universities to rule finally upon questions of eligibility, and in, doing s a to enforce the true spirit of amateurism without regard to trivial infractions.

The color of blood Is due chiefly to iron in the little blcod cells. When the iron is kept in these little blood cells, which are living and traveling around in the blood vessels, the color is red. Hit the skin hard enough to break some of the little blood vessels beneath the surface and the little red cells escape from ,the injured Mood vessels, wander about for awhile in the tissues and die. When they die the iron that made them red before then changes to black and blue coloring. After awhile this iron is taken up by the glands called the .lymphatics, and made over again into nice red cells. The iron is taken up much more quickly by the lymphatics If the i>lack™and-bluo_spot-is rubbed and massaged.-—St Nicholas. Wrong Way.

Wingfield looked at his sister Jean, frowning heavily. She sat across ths room from him her head bent, .jier bauds discolored but stitching ieftly at something-*-something that roused him to auger, lie flung his book half way across the desk in front of him, got up laggardiy, and said, balancing bimseif with both hands upon the desk-top: " 'Patches ar* premeditated poverty. You know that—yet you do worse than patch. Is this the third, or fourth time you've made over that hat?, I'm sick of seeing it—of seeing you messing with it. A new one, much better looking, wPould cost only a couple of dollars—I believe you insist upon trimming such things yourself.' "Correct! Every way," Jean answered impassively. "I am not in love with my hat-making—nor even with my own Way of trimming. Maybe I might be if—" "If what?" Wingfield asked almost savagely as she paused. She smiled at him—rather a hard smile but wistful. "I was about" to say if I could buy the things I like— rather than the things I can afford," she said. "You mean those poodle-dog feathers that fly in the face of everybody?" Wingfield queried. She shook her head, saying, "No— praise be. Willow plumes don't tempt me in the least. But I would like— say for this summer—a real fine straw —the seven-dollar sort, as pliable as cloth almost and very rich broad pale purple velvet for a bow and a trail of orchilds. I say just the thing yesterday— for seventeen dollars—and » Paris tip, inside the crown—to make believe it came from there." "Go get it!" Wingfield ordered, pulling a roll of bills from his pocket and tossing them to her. She did not touch, the money. She looked at him steadily, smiling still that old smile. "I have never yet put the rent into finery," she s^aid, dropping her eyes. Wingfield scowled. "I am beginning to believe it might better for us if you did," he said.

D A Y O F S U P E R F I C I A L I T Y G O N E Modern Competition Too Fierce for Any but Those Who Equip Themselves for the Struggle Which Inevitably Must Precede Success. There is a successful department store in Chicago which has spent tens of thousands of dollars in cost j reductions. With that house the saving of one nail in a packing case of any standard bke is a big item. As to i^e merchandise put on sale, the prices are fixed and immutable, as are the profits, which have betua figured on average sales, from a paner of pins to the furnishings of a palatial home. But even this is not enough for its management "Do you know that the average of sales for every sales person in this sLore is fixed annually?" the manager once asked of the writer, turning to a memorandum book on. his desk "This year/' he said, "the average rales for every sales person in this house are $43.83. The average Will be greater than that next year, for the reason that the growth of the city in population will be fixed anew, With the city growing at an average fixed ratio, if the average sales in the house do not 4ncrease in proportion, we shall know just this, that we are falling behind our competitors!"'

Many successful business men have said that they have been aided beyond measure by the advice of their wives in business matters. Indeed, it is not uncommon for a man, who is rated in business circles as particularly shrewd, to say that he seldom undertakes an important project without consulting and depending largely upon his wife's opinion. Full recognition of the value of woman's opinion is to be given by the mayor of Flint, Mich., who favors appointment of a municipal commission of five women whose duty it would .be-'to study problems of civic concern and lend their assistance in direction of improved conditions, a sort of "municipal housekeeping commission." It is a harmless though novel proposition and should not occasion any alarm in official circles, since the women are to act only in an advisory capacity.

Bourne, and the most completely equipped institution of its kind in the world, has been opened to the blind workers of the 'city. The building is equipped for the making of brooms and mops and the caning of chairs. The workers are able to earn from $10 to $1¼ a week. The building has four stories and a roof garden, a restaurant, shower iaths-and other conveniences.^ Such Institutions mark the passing of a day that regarded blind per* tons as helpless burdens. continually, Ipown. Further, a monthly publication is issued which serves to knit the bureau into a close working system. Germany not only makes a distinction between the employable and the unemployable, varying treatment according to the needs, but also keeps an eye on individual workers.

It devours many caterpillars, including hairy species, which infest the orchard, woodland and shade trees. Forty per cent, of its focd is insects, and 43 per cent, wild fruit- It would pay the farmer well to go some expense in order to keep the robins away from his fruit trees and berry bushes rather thar shoot these birds which are so useful to him in man3' ways.

It is perfectly apparent that here is a situation which demands immediate action, and that this action should bring about the vigilant protection for all time, and in all parts opthe country, of all insectivorous birds. Man} of the most useful of these birds are already on the tobogganslide toward extermination, as the result of stupid state legislation, or the lax enforcement of such laws as have been enacted. To be explicit: There are seven states in which the Tobin is being legally killed by the tens of thousands annually as "game"! These states are Louisiana, Mississippi, Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee and Maryland. The black bird is legalized "game/-' and suffers the same fate in four states—Louisiana, South Carolina, Tennessee and Pennsylvania—and the District of Columbia besides. Doves are slaughtered by the wholesale in 26 states, much to the loss of the farmers, for this bird is a great eater of weed seeds. Cranes, which are a^lso very useful birds, are much hunted for food and for "sport" in Colorado, Nebraska, North Dakota and Oklahoma. Of the sixty-odd species of Bhorebirds (i. e„ snipe, curlews, plover, sandpipers and the like), at least 30 feed on noxious insects; yet all of these birds are rapidly disappearing. According to Mr. W. L. McAtee of the taon north and south. The accompanying illustrations present portraits of a group of birds, most of which'the average person probably j tations. It males a charming neigh knows by sight, though I fear that only a small minority have a clear idea of their very great economic worth. The jacksnipe (or Wilson's snipe) is 1 one o* the shorebirds (referred to by Mr. McAtee j , which, as a family, are being rapidly exterminated. It destroys large numbers of worms and larvae, for which it probes with its long bill in the soft earth of corn and potato fields—thereby doing the farmer ar great service—as well as along the shores of ponds, lakes and streams. It also feeds on grasshoppers and other injurious insects. It should be carefully protected, especially during the breeding season. The kildeer plover is another valuable and beautiful shorebird which is being hunted to death. It frequents meadows aftd^pasture lands, as well as shores, and devours great quantities of mosquitoes, crane flies, grasshoppers, army worms, cut worms, caterpillars, cottou-boll weevils, cloverleaf weevils, rice weevils, marine worms, wire worms and crayfish.

One observer "records that 32 parent martins made 3,275 visits to their- young in one Jay, each visit meaning, probably, anywhere from one to half a dozen insects. The nighthawk (also called "bullbat") i ^ probably one of the most useful of birds. It feeds exclusively on insects,, and ranks next to the golden-winged woodpecker (flicker) as a feathered destroyer of ants, which it takes when they are in the winged stage. Potato beetles, cucumber beetles, leaf hoppers, bugs of various kinds and enormous quantities of gnats and mosquitoes are found in their stomachs. They are entirely harmless, for they never feed on fruit, grain, grass or vegetables. Yet they are being hunted for sport and are being exterminated. The loggerhead (or southern) shrike is a champion pest destroyer, a large percentage of its food being harmful rodents and destructive insects, the latter including grasshoppers, crickets and moths, which it frequently impales upon thorns or sharp twigs. It sometimes catches young birds (though this is more characteristic of the northern shrike, or butcher bird,) but its diet is chiefly insects and small rodents. It is, therefore, very valuable to the farmer. The golden-winged woodpecker (also called 'flicker," "highhole," etc.) is an industrious tree protector, and tbe most efficient of all feathered anteaters. It is also feeds freely upon beetles, grasshoppers, crickets, caterpillars, and other harmful insects, as well as on weed seds. Yet it is rapidly growing rare because it is much hunted for food. It should be protected everywhere and at all times. In view of the decrease already ac* complished in the general volume of bird life in America, in view of the enormous losses annually inflicted upon the people of this country by the ravages of insects, and in view of the j destruction of v i l d life which is now i furiously proceeding throughout America, the McLean bill, which is now before congress, to provide for the federal protection of all migratory birds, becomes the most important wTild life measure that ever came before that body. In view of the annual economic loss that will continue as long as a federal migratory bird bill fails to pass, it is impossible for anyone to put forth one good reason—unless it be oh purely technical grounds—against that measure. The Weeks bill, before the lower house of congress, is precisely like the McLean bill, and it matters not which one passes first.

The domestic arrangements of the sultan are entirely different from those of his subjects. Most Turks i have one wife; the sultan har no j^recognized sultana. Turks of high rank marry into their own class; the sultan forms unions with women of slave origin. The ordinary man may not look upon an unveiled woman except she be his relation or servant; the sultan has the right to talk with any woman in the land face to face. Turks of position model their households more or less on the European plan; the sultan's household is oriental. That does not mean that in the imperial palace you would find women sipping sherbet or smoking narghilehs or clad in baggy trousers. On tho contrary, you would And them smoking nothing more oriental than a cigarette, sitting on a European chair —and. yes, wearing corsets! But the code of morals is entirely different, says the New^Tork Sun. The Imperial harem is founded on. the old court system of the Byzantine emperors and has an etiquette and law of its own. The first fact one must grasp ia that the wives or favorites of the sultan have no importance at all. They are nobodies, The daughter of a Circassian peasant imay be honored by the sultan's favor and even'"bear him a child, but yet be distinguished by no other title than the commonplace "Kadin Effendl." Only the mother of the eldest eon receives the royal designation of "sultari." her whole title bein$J ''Khareki sultan." : Her dlcrnity only results from her befnrr the mother of a possible heir to throne: that' is. fn tho event *~ j^e no\brothers'.• for • .. ' • ^ >ho n<hf of prece* dence as the elder male descendants. And the royal favorite of the moment will have transitory importance on account of the influence which she may exercise over the sultan. Royal princesses are considered inferior to the mother of the sultan, who is the real queen of the little world of the harem, has absolute authority, a large staff of officials and the supreme title of "Valide sultan." Thus it happens that a woman of slave birth may, if she be the mother of an heir to the throne, eventually become the highest woman of the land. Every royal princess has her daira, or separate apartments; slaves, servants and so on, the management of the household being given over to her kalfas, or ladies in waiting—that is to say, Turkish women of good birth who have remained unmarried. Royal princesses rarely take a husband of their own rank. They are generally married by the sultan to the sons of men of wealth and position, such as pashas, officers cf state, high civil officials and the like, a policy which is founded on a very practical reason, namely, that the arrangement makes the existence of a heriditary aristocracy impossible. One of the paradoxes in Turkey is that the poorer a Turkish woman 19 the greater her freedom. The rich woman canont move a step unaccompanied. She sees Constantinople only frdm the windows of her closed brougham or through a veil thick enough to act as a mask. She may dress as exquisitetly as a mannequin in a Paris dressmaker's showroom, but she must not display so much as an inch of embroidery in public. When her husband wants to take a second wife, or grows tired of her and wishes ta divorce her. he has both the opportunity and the means if he is a rich man^ It is not chic ,among Turks of any education to take a second wife; but divorce is. re- V The Loggerhead Shrike.

The woman of the poorest classes can go out alone. Custom does' not oblige her to wear her veil down. Should her husband, in a fit of anger, wish to divorce her, he must first of all produce the Nekyah, the dowry, In ready money, not an easy matter for a poor man. The. real danger to domestic happiness in the great mass of Turkish homes is the growing tendency of divorce, and a divorce wholly favorable to the man as against the woman. The payment of the modest nekyah arranged at the time of his marriage is a simple affair, and it is seldom enough to keep the divorced wife for the rest of her days. She is forced to take refuge with her parents or to find shelter with some.of her friends. Day on Which Women Rule. Candlemas day is not celebrated !n Holland much more than in Englar-d, but its place is taken by a festival tnknownMn this country. Slipper dayjn the Netherlands is the one day in t i e year i n w which the Dutch woman claims superiority over, her husbat<.d. On that day she rules him to her hearty content, and he generally obeys^good Jiumoredly enough. That is, unless she is one of those ladtes not unknown in Holland or in aay other country who aspire to complete rule over their unhappy partners throughout the year.-—Philadephia Inquirer. < Jumped, Killed; Stayed, Safe.

It started in four or five smalhpimples and in two or tjiree hours' time spread to the size of a silver dollar. It spreao><o her eye. Then water would run fromMhe pimples and wherever that touched it caused more sores until nearly all one cheek and up her nostrils were one solid sore. She was very fretful. She certainly was a terrible looking child, and nothing seemed to be of any use. '•Then I got some Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. She tried-to rub off everything we put on so that we would sit and hold her hands for two hours at a time, trying to give the medicine a chance to help her, but after I washed it with Cuticura Soap and then put on ttye Cuticura Ointment they seemed to soothe her and she, did not try to rub them off.

V A So. Dak. woman found some things about food from Old Experience a good, reliable teacher. She writes: "I think I have used almost every breakfast food manufactured, but none equal Grape-Nuts in my estimation. "I was greatly bothered with weak stdmach and indigestion, with formation of gas after eating, and tried many remedies for it but did not find relief. "Then I decided I must diet and see if I could overcome the difficulty that way. My choice of food was Grape- Nuts because the doctor told me I could not digest starchy food. "Grape-Nuts food has been^a great benefit to me for I feel like a different person since I begun to eat i t It is wonderful to me how strong my nerves have become. I advise everyone to try it, for experience is the best teacher. "If you have any stomach trouble— can't digest your food, use Grape- Nuts food for breakfast a^east, and you won't be able to praise it enough when you see how different you feel."

It is said that Austria-Hungary, instead of demobilizing her troops, is calling to the colors more reservists.

Some profess to believe that Roumania, in her demand for Bulgarian territory, wa* h^ing egged on by Turkish secret diplomacy, the porte thus hoping to escape with smaller sacrifices of territory under qpver of the new war cloud. Powers May Get Fortress. The capsulation of Adrianople will in the opintap of the Ealkan plenipotentiaries, take place within a fewclays, either directly to the besieging forces or through European pressure. Pending some fresli development, the Balkan delegates are keeping in closest touch with the ambassadors, because they are aware that some of the questions they have most at heart depend almoat entirely on the will of the powers. Meanwhile the ambassadorial conference is doi-ng little, hoping that the Adrianople difficulty'will solve itself in some manner, and thus make interference by the powers unnecessary. The action of the ambassadors is hampered by the previous agreement that they must be unanimous in any decision* requiring active interference, Should the fall of Adrianople still be delayed, now that the conference i3 suspended, it might become imperative for Europe to intervene; otherwise Europe would lose the prestige entitling her to dictate her will in smaller matters, such as bringing into being an autonomous Albania and partitioning the Aegean islands. One suggestion is that, failing a better solution, Adrianople might be ceded to the powers, who could transfer it to the allies after permitting the Turkish garrison to leave with the honors of war, and guaranteeing other conditions, as the reservation of religious and property rights to the Turks and the establishment of special courts for the trials of civil disputes arising between Musselmans. Take Constantinople. Some of the delegates front the allied states1 are of the opinion jliat now that they have paved the way for the expulsion of Turkey from Europe the powers ought to complete the work by removing Islam from Constantinople and transforming the Turkish capital into an autonomous city under European control, and that they should adopt means to give a really civilized government* to Asia Minor.

The machinery, the money and* themen for carrying on the big works i n Western Canada in 1913 are already provided for. The splendid harvest which was successfully garnered, and by this time, mostly marketed, responded to the-big hopes that were had for it early in the season, and inspired capitalists and railroads to further investment and building. From lake ports to mountain base there will be carried on the biggest operations in city building ^and "rails way construction that has ever taken place ixi that country. The Canadian Pacific railway has everything in waiting to continue their great work of double tracking the system and by the time the Panama Canal is open to traffic there will be a double line of steel from Lake Superior to the Pacific coast. The cost will exceed thirty million dollars. The Grand Trunk Pacific plan of building a firstclass trunk line and then feeders a t various points will be carriea forward with all the force that great cojnpany can put into the work. The Canadian Northern is prepared to put into motion all the energy that young giant of finance and railroad buildihg can put into various enterprises of providing ancl creating transportation facilities. Building operations in the several cities, that have already marked themselves a place in the list of successful and growing cities, will be carried on more largely than ever; Schools, public buildings, parliament buildings, colleges, business blocks, apartments, private residences, banks, street *nd other municipal improveincuts have thSir appropriation ready, and the record of 1913 will be some* thing wonderful. Other places which are towns today will make the rapid strides that are expected and will become cities. There will be other. Edmontons, Calgarys, Reginas and Saskatoons, other places that may i n their, activity help to convince the outer world of the solidity and permanency of the Canadian West. The country is large and^wide and broad and the ends of its great width and length are but the limits of its agricultural area. - Its people are progressive, they are strong, there is no enervation there. . The country teems with this life, this ambition, this fondness to create and to use the forces that await the settler. If they come from the South, and hundreds ci' thousands of them have, they are now the dominant men of the North, and they have imbibed of the spirit of the North. Therefore it is fair to say that no portion of tho ^continent will show such wonderful results as Western Canada, and the year 1913 will be but the. beginning of a wonderful and great future: And in this future the 200,000 Americans who made it their home, and those who preceded them, will be a considerable portion of the machinery that will be used in bringing about the results predicted. The development of 1913 will not be confined to the prairie provinces. Railway building and city building in British Columbia will be supplemented by the farm, the ranch antf the orchard building of that province, Vancouver will make great strides i n building, and Victoria, the staid old' lady of so many years, has already shown signs of modern ways, and if the progress made in 1912 may be accepted as anythfng like what it will be in 1913, there will be wonderful-- developments there.

Leaving the car. she goes into the park to read the will of an old friend of her mother, who has left her property. There sne is accosted by &• stranger, who follows her to the auto, climbs in and chloroforms her. James Hambleton of Lynn, Mass.. witnesses tfcb abduction of Agatha Redmond. Hambleton sees Agatha forcibly taken aboard a yacht. He secures a lug and when near the yacht drops overboard, Aleck Van Camp, friend of Hambleton. had an appointment with him. Not meeting Hambleton, he makes a call upon friends. Madame and Miss Melanie Reynier. Me proposes to the latter and Is refused. Melanle explains that she io or high birth in a German principality, from which she had fled to escape an unwished marriage fo'cas'le soon worked havoc with his physique, so that appetite, and even desire of life itself, temporarily disappeared in the gloom of seasickness. In spite of difficulties, Jim tried to find out something about the boat. The seamen -were none too friendly; but by patching up his almost forgotten French and by signs, he learned something. His sudden failure of strength in the water had been due to a blow from a floating spar, as a bruise on his forehead testified; "the old man," whom Jim supposed to be the captain, was a hard master; Monsieur Chatelai*d was owner, or at least temporary proprietor, of the yacht; and the present voyage was an unlucky one by all the signs and omens known to the seamen's horoscope. The sullenness of the men was apparent, and was not caused by the enforced presence of a stranger \among them. In fact, their bad temper became so conspicuous that Jim began to believe that it might have something to do with the mysterious ac- ^ % tions of the man on shore. He ponhis practical sense ,coming%to the sur- dered the situation deeply; he evolved face. "Heavens!

He rang the bell, begged "the maid to fetch. bre,ad and butter and tea and to ask Madame, Reynier to come to the drawing-room. When she appeared, he met her °with a grave, but in no wise a cowed, spirit. "Madame Reynier, your niece refused, for tho present, to consider herself engaged to me; I, however, am unequivocally betrothed to her. And I shall be endlessly grateful If you and Miss Reynier will be my guests on the Sea Gull for as lo^g a time as you find it diverting. We\ shall cruise along the coast and put into harbor at night> if it seems best: and I'll try to mak/ you comfortable. Will you Madame Reynier was willing if Me- -lanie was; and Melanie had no strength, if she had the will, to combat Aleck's masterful ways. It was soorr^eftled. Aleck swung off down the street, re-reading Jim^s letter, intent only on the Sea dull and the preparations for his guests. But at the back of his mind he was thinking, "Poor girl! She needs me more than I thought!" C H A P T E R Vr. v On Board the Jeanne D'Arc. If hard usage and obstacles could cure a knight-errant of his sentiment, then Jimmy Hambleton had been free of his passion for the Pace. Hi3 plunge overboard; had been followed by a joyous swim1, a lusty call to the yacht for "Help," and a growing amazement when he realised that it was the yacht's intention to pass him by. He had swum valiantly, determined to get picked up by that particular craft, when suddenly his strength failed. He remembered thinking that it was all up with him, and then he lost consciousness. When he awoke he was on a hard bunk in a dim place, and a sailor was jerking him about. His throat burned with a fiery liquid. Then he felt the plunging and rising 6f the boat, and came to life sufficiently to utter the stereotyped words, "Where am I?" In Jim's case the question did not imply the confused groping back to sense that it usually indicates, but rather an actual desire to know whether or not he was on board the Jeanne D'Arc. Plainly his wits had not been badly shattered by his experience overboard. But the sailor who was attending him with such ministrations as he understood, answered him with a sample of French which. Jim had never met with in his schoolbooks, and he was not enlightened for some hours. It was indeed the Jeanne D'Arc, as Jim proved for himself the next day, and he was lying In the seamen's quarters in the fo'cas'le. By morning he felt much better, hungry, and prepared in his mind for striking a bargain with one of the sailors for clothes. He could make out their lingo" soon,~he guessed, Ian d th en he would get a suit of clothes and fare on deck. Suddenly he grasped his waist, struck with an unpleasant thought; his money-belt was gone* He was wearing a sailor's blue flannel shirt and nothing else. He turned over on his hard bunk, thinking that he would have to wait a while before makfng his entrance on the public *$tage of the Jeanne^ D'Arc. / y And wait fiedid.Jfot a rag of clothing was in sight, and no cajolery oi* promise of reward could persuade the ship's men into supplying, his need. He received consignments\j>f food; short rations they would be, he judged, for an able-bodied seaman. But inactivity and confinement to tho them one by one. He grimly reflected that a man without clothes can scarcely be a hero, whatever his spirit. Not since the clays of Olympus was there any record of man or god being received into any, society whatever without hi3 sartorial shell, thought Jimmy. But in spite of his discomfort, ho was glad he was there. Tho intuition that had led him since that memorable Sunday afternoon was strong within him still, and he never questioned its authority. He believed bis turn would ^ome, even though he were a prisoner^ in the fo'cas'le of the Jeanne D'Arc. As the violence of his sickness passed, Jim began to cast about for some means of helping himself. Gradually he was able to dive into the forgotten shallows of his French learning. By much wrinkling of brows he evolved a sentence, though he had to wait some hours before there was a favorable chance to put it to use. At last his time earner with the arrival of his former frienjl, the sailor. "Oo avay-voo cashay mon moneybelt?" he inquired with much confix dence, and with pure Yankee accent The sailor answered with a shrug and a spreading of empty hands. "Pas de money-belt, pas de pantalon, pas de tous! Dam queer Amayricain!" Jim was not convinced of the sailor's innocence, but perceived that he must give him the benefit of the doubt. As the sailor intimated, Jim, himself, was open to suspicion, and couldn't afford to be too jealous in calumniating others. He fell to thinking again, and attacked the next Frenchman that came into the fo'- cas'le with the following: "Kond j'aytay malade don ma tate, kee a pree mon money-belt?" ts~ It was the ship's cook this time, ;and he turned and stared at J i m m y 1 as though he had seen a ghost. When he found tongue he uttered a volume of opinion and abuse which Jimmy knew by instinct was not fit to be translated, and then he fled up the ladder. On the fourth day, toward evening, James had a visitor. All day the yacht had been pitching and rolling, and by afternoon she was laboring in the violence of a storm and was listing badly. James was a fearless seaman, but it crossed his mind more thaa once that if he were captain, and if there" were a port within reach, ho would put into it before midnight. But he could tell nothing of the ship's course. He turned the subject over in his mind as he lay on his bunk In that peculiar state half-way between sickness and health, when the body is relaxed by a purely accidental illness and the mind is abnormally alert. He wished intensely for a bath, a shave, and a fair complement of clothes.* He longed also to go l i p the hatchway for a breath of afr, and was considering the possibility of doing this later, with a blanket ^nd darkness for a shield^when-he-he^ came conscious of a pair of neatly trpusered legs descending thd ladder. It was quite a different performance from the catlike climbing up and down of the sailors. Jimmy watched in the dim light un? til the whole figure was complete, fantastically supplying, in his imagination, the coat, the shirt, tho collar and the tie to go with the trousers— all the things which he himself lacked. Was there also a hat? Jimmy couldn't make out, and so he asKed: "Have you got on a hat?" A frigid voice answered, "I beg your pardon!" "I said, are you wearing a hat? I couldn't flee, you know." "Monsieur takes the liberty of being impertinent." "Oh, excuse me—I beg your pardon. But it's so beastly hot and dark in here, you know, an'd I've never been seasick before." "No? Monsieur is fortunate." The visitor advanced a little, drew from a recess a shoe-blacking outfit, pulled over it one of the stiff blankets from a neighboring bunk, and - sat down rather cautiously. Little by little James made out more of the look of the man. He was large and rather blond, well dressed, clean-shaven. He spoke English easily, but with a foreign accent. "I wish to Inquire to what unfortunate circumstances we are indebted for your company on the Jeanne D'Arc." The voice was cool and sharp as a meat-ax. "Why, to your own kind-heartedness. I was a derelict and you took me in—saved my life, in fact; for which I am profoundly grateful And I hope my presence here As not too great-a burden?" ^ ^ "I am obliged to say that your presence here is most unwelcome, ^loreover, I am aware that your previous actions are open to suspicion, to express it mildly. You' threw yourself off the tug; and as thi^is "not a pleasure yacht, but the vesseNpf a high official speeding on a mos^t .important business matter, I said to the captain, 'Let him swim! Or, if he wishes to die, why should we thwart him?' But the captain referred to the 'etiquette of the line/ as he calls it, and picked you up. So you have not me to thank for not being among the fishes this minute." Jimmy pulled his blanket about and sat up on his bunk. The sarcastic voice stirred his bile, and suddenly there boomed in his memory a woman's call for help. The hooded motorcar, the muffled cry of terror, the inert figure being lifted over the side of the yacht—these things crowded on hisv brain and fired him to a sudden, unreasoning fury. He leaned over, looking sharply into the other's face. "You damned scoundrel!" he said, choking with his anger. -• The blood surged into his face and eyes; he was, for an instant, a primitive savage. -He could have laid violent hands on the other man and done Trim to'death, in the fashion of tbe half-gods who lived in the twilight of history. The visitor in the fo'cas'le exhibited a neat row of teeth and no resentment whatever at Jim's remark. But a §harp glitter shot from his eyes as he replied suavely: "Monsieur has doubtless mistaken this ship, and probably its master also, for some other less worthy adventurer on the sea. For that very reason I have come to set you right. It may be that I have my quixotic moments. At any rate, I have a fancy to ''give you a gentleman's chance. Monsieur, I regret the necessity of being inhospitable, but I am forced to say that you must quit the shelter of this yacht within twenty-four hours " The thin, sarcastic voice apd cleancut syllables fanned the flame of Jimmy's rage. He felt impotent, moreover, which never serves as a poultice to anger. But he got himself in hand, though imitation courtesy was not much in his line. He tuned his big hearty voice to a pitch with the Frenchman's nasal pipe, and clipped off his words in mimicry. "And to whom, pray, shall I have the honor to say farewell, at the auspicious moment when I Jump overboard r "Gently, you American, gently!" said the other. "My friends, and some of my enemies, know me as Mon sleur Chatelard." As ho paused for an impressive instant, Jim, grabbing his blanket, stood up in decision and executed an elaborate bow in as for eign a manner as he could command Monsieur Chatelard politely waved him down and continued: "But pray* do not trouble to give me your card! I had rather say adieu to Monsieur the tJnknown, whose daring and temper I so much admire. But I -certainly -misunderstood -your- vtofetttremark a moment ago, did I not? You can not possibly have any ground of quarrel with me." "I thought you stole my moneybelt." Monsieur smiled and waved a deprecatory hand. "You have already dismissed that idea, I am certain. A money-belt, between gentlemen! Moreover, you should thank me for so much as recognizing the gentleman in you, since you are without the customary trappings of our class." "Oh, I don't know," said Jim. But Monsieur Chatelard was now imperturbable. He continued blandly: "Since you are fond of sea-baths, you wlH no doubt enjoy a plunge—tonight possibly. As we have made rather slow progress, we are- really not'so, far from Hhpre. Yes, on second ikgj^iit, I would by all .means advise you to take your departure tonight. Swim back to shore the way you came. In any case, your absence is desired There will be no room or provision or water for you on board the Jeanne D'Arc after tonight. Is my meaning clear?" Jim was watching, as well as he could, the immobile, expressionless face, and did not immediately, note that Monsieur Chatelard had drawn a small, shiny object from his hip pocket and was holding it carelessly in his lap. As his gaze focussed on the revolver, however, he did the one thing, perhaps, which at that moment could have put the Frenchman off his guard. He threw his head back and l&ughed aloud. But before his laugh had time to echo in the narrow fo'cas'le, Jim leaped from his bunk upon his tormentor, like a cat upon a mouse, seized his right hand in a paralyzing grip, and was himself thrown violently to the floor. The struggle was brief, for the Frenchman was no match for Jim in strength and scarcely superior to him in skill; but it took one of Jim's wrestling feints to get the better of his opponent. He came out, in five seconds, with the pistol in his hand. Monsieur Chatelard, a bit breathless, but not greatly discomposed, peered out at him from the edge of the opposite bunk, where, he sat uncomfortably. His cynical voice capped the struggle like a streak of pitch. \ "Pray keep the weapon. You are welcome, though your methods are somewhat surprising. Had I known them earlier, I might have offered you my little toy." "Oh, don't, mention it," said Jimmy. "I thought you might not be used to firearms, that's all." 1 The varnished surface of Monsieur Chatelard's countenance gave no evidence of his having heard Jim's remark. "Don't fancy that your abrupt movements have deprived me of wh'at authority I may happen to i.->ssc-ss on this vessel. My request as to your future action still stands, unless you had rather one of my faithful men should assist you in carrying*1 out my .purpose." Hambleton stood with legs wide apart to ketfp> his balance, regarding the weapon in his' hand, from which his gazo traveled to the man on tho bunk. When it came to dialogue, ho was no match for this sarcastic purveyor of words. He wondered whether Monsieur Chatelard was actually as cool as he appeared. As he stood there^the Jeanne D'Arc pitched forward until it seemed that she could never right herself, then slowly and laboriously she rode tho waves again. "You are a more picturesque villain than I thought," remarked " James. "You have all the tricks of the sta-go hero—secret passages, fancy weapons, and—crowning glory—a fatal gift of gab!" Monsieur Chatelard arose, making his way toward the hatch. mbnd. Otherwise, be pleased to play Mercury to your Venus." To' Jim's ears, every syllable the Frenchman spoke was an insult, and words rekindled the lire in his blood. "You shall pay for that speech here and now!" he yelled; and,"discarding his revolver, he dealt the Frenchman a short-arm blow. Chatelard, trying to dodge, tripped over the base of the ladder and went down heavily on the floor of the fo'cas'le. He had apparently lo3t consciousness As Jim saw his victim stretched on the floor, he turned away with loathing. He picked up his revolver and went up the ladder. It was already dark, and confusion reigned on deck. But through the clamor, Jim made out something near the truth; the Jeanne D'Arc was leaking badly, and no time was to be lost if she, with her passengers and crew, were to be.,saved. C H A P T E R VII. The Rope Ladder. The near prospect of a conclusive struggle ,for life is a sharp tonic to the adventurous soul. Tho actual final summons to that other room is met variously. There is earthly dignity, who answers even this last tap at the door with a fitting and quotable rejoinder; there is deathbed repentance, whose unction in moniento mortis is doubtless a comfort to pious relatives; and there are chivalry and lor, twin youths who go to the unknown., banquet singing ami bearing their garlands of joy. But with the chance of a fight for life, there is a slfarp-sweet tang that sends some spirits galloping to the contest "Dauntless the slughorn to his lips be set—" making ready for the last good run. When Jim descended the hatchway after reconnoiteriag on deck, Chatelard was gone. The ship's cook was rummaging in a sailor's kit that he had drawn from a locker Jim mentally considered the situation. The seamen had no doubt exaggerated the calamity, but without, question there was serious trouble. Were tho pumps working? How far were they from shore? If- hopelessly distant, from shore, were they in the course of passing steamers? Would any one look after Miss Redmond's safety? .Monsieur Chatelard had said that she was no.t on board, but. James did not believe it. While these thoughts flew through his mind, Jamea had been absently watching while the cook turned his treasures out upon his bunk, and pawed them over with trembling hands. There were innumerable little things besides a stiiT white shirt, a cheap* shiny Bible, a suilled parrot And compliment in such a happy choice oV English," he scoffed, "but I can truth* fully say that I 'have rarely seen so striking and unique a figure, as I now behold; certainly never on the stage, to which you so politely refer." But James waa too deeply intent on his next move to 'be embarrassed by his lack of clothes. Not in vain had his gorge risen almost at first sight of this man. lie stepped quickly in front of Monsieur Chatelard, blocking his exit up the ladder, while the revolver in his hand looked straight between the Frenchman's eyes.* VVhateve • Chatelard's crimes were, he was not a coward He did not flinch, but his oyos gleamed like cold steel as Jim cornered him "Nov/," said Jim, "I have my turn." Wrath burned in his heart. "Captain Paquin. Antoine, Antoine!" called Chatelard No one answered the call of the master of the ship, but even as the two men measured their force one against the other, they were arrested by a commotion above Voices were heard shouting/ trampling feet were running back and forth over the deck, and a moment later the ship's cook came tumbling down the hatchway, screaming in terror He glared unheeding at the two men, and his teeth chattered. Fear had possession of him. Jim lifted his revolver well out of reach, and backed off from Cnatelard. For the first time during the interview between the American and the Frenchman, the two now faced each other as man to man, with the mask of their suspicious, their vanities and their hate cast aside "What is the matter? What is this fool saying?" Jim asked in loathing. At last Monsieur Chatelard looked at Jim with eyes of fear His face became so pale and drawn that it resembled a sponge from which tbe last drop of water had been pressed "He says the yacht is half full of water—that she is sinking," the Frenchman said ---^inking!'* echoed Jim, bearing down agalnrwith --towered Tevo!ver,~ott~ hi3 enemy. "Well and good! You're going to be drowned, not shot, after all! And now you Shall speak, you scamp! Your game's up. whatever happens Get up and lead the way quick, and show mo in what part of this infernal boat you are hidirtg Agatha Redmond " Chatelard started toward- the hatchway, followed sharply by Jim's revol ver, but at the foot of the ladder ho turned his contemptuous, sneering face toward /Tim, with the remark: "Your words are the words of a fool, you pig of an American* There Is no lady aboard this yacht, and I never so much as heard of your Agatha Redand several wads of clothes among the mess Jim caught sight of a piece way At the top ho threw himself) down, like a baseball runner making ! his base,-after the seaman's legs; but instead of a foot, he found himself j clutching one of the weeds of : clothes that trailed alter the cook's j bundle. He caught it firmly and kept' it, but the ship's cook and the rest of , his booty disappeared like a rabbit in- '< to its burrow t Jim sat down at tho top 6f tho lad- ' dtir and examined his haul It was a pair of woolen -trouserS^nd they wero of generous size. He spread them out on the deck Round him were unmistakable signs of demoralization The second officer was ordering the men to the pumps in stern tones; the yacht was pitching wildly and growing darkness was settling on the face of tho turbulent waters. But in spite of it all, Jimmy's spirit leaped forth in ; laughter as he thought of his brief, , frantic chase, and its results in this capture of the characteristic vestiture j of man I "What's money for. anyway!" he laughed, as he got up and clothed himself once more (TO BE CONTINUED.) Proper Gymnastic Work. Every person who has received gymnasium training is aware of tho fact that an exerciae which calls for painful, effort on the part of tbe beginner is often performed afmost without any conscious effort at all after .a certain amount of training has been received. Again, Jt is perfectly well known that brute strength alone does not make a gymnast, and that even a simple exercise may offer great difficulty to a muscular and well developed individual who has not been trained in the gymnasium The explanation j for this is made plain in an article by i Professor du Bois lleymond in Die Umschau, who points ouf that one of j the essential functions of -gymnasium j work is not so much to build up rnua-' cle as to train nerves and nerve groups to work in proper unison and co-ordination.

Believed t o H a v e Been Built by Chinese in M e x i c o . WILL THEY GET MONTICELLO FROM HIM? \ T M U S T be admitted that there is a skillfully promoted and amply financed "movement*' for curbing the ambition of the children of the poor. There is certainly no "movement" to vooationalize the children of ihe rich and niltured, and there is no public demand for speciallyjrocationalizinjr the public schools for any class. Everything i n 1 that direction is artificial. Ab enterprising American city of .'100,000 population has an elegant fourfold trade school for boys of fourteen and upwards, on which it is spending by slate law about one-seventh as much as upon the education of the other tens of thousands of children, paying the expert trade school superintendent and providing him with specialized heads of tbe trades. The school superintendent, the school board, all the papers of the city, the employers and the labor unions are in sympathy with tbe experiment. It has had several years of enthusiastic promotion, but up to date they have i ^ e ^ ^ ' o u n d mie Injured boys for all of these school-shops in any yeaj^sipjgjbjett^ have to be told after a time that they can never W a r n the trade ^elected, and another fourth get tired of it early and drop out. There'is slight prospect that they will ever graduate, as worthy and well qualified, fifty boys a year in all"the shops for plumbing, •carpentering, iron working and pattern making. The "movement" is interesting, but the demand is not a tidal, wave. In a great industrial state a memorial trade school was established and attendance was promoted to the l i m i t It brought forth as applicants one lad who was willing to learn the bricklayer's trade, three consented 10 learn carpentering and some others would like to be electrical engineers. A man of vast wealth, believing that the "movement" was a demand, left a fortune for a marvelously complete technical institution, where they not only provide free tuition and free material but free board and clothes for four years, so that a young man can have a good trade wholly without expense, and the absence of any tremendous enthusiasm for learning the ordinary trades ia interesting. Some years ago (lie "movement" was brilliantly (?) launched in Massachusetts by the appointment of an industrial education commission, 11 pon which the state was seduced to expend about $100,000, and it promised to pay one-half of the entire expense of any sort of trade school or shadow thereof, by day or by night, and after an elaborate three years' campaign of speech making and banqueting prominent citizens and expensive lobbying in many cities and towns they did not succeed in starting anything anywhere with the suspicion of a trade idea in it. '\Reai causes?" Well, the time has not come to tell all that is known of the "real causes/' Thev may\fool all the people a little while, they can fool some people a long time, but I refuse to believe that they Mnll fool all the people all the time. 1 am suspicious of the devotion to the children of the poor of any man, or of any interest that has been willing to sacrifice the children of the poor to the greed of mill and factory and has never had a voice to raise against the crime of child labor. Three Town* Were Erected on the Same Site by Three Civilizations Prior to the A*tcc«~-Mongolian Image It Discovered. Fchool nre in causes' people. City of Mexico.—A sensation has been created in British scientific circles by advices received from Sir Martin Conway, Prof. William Niven and Senor Ramon Mena of the discovery of absolute Mongolian remains only a couple of hours' walk from the City of Mexico, thereby confirming the hypothesis that has long been held that the most ancient civilization of Mexico and Peru preceding that of the ToltecS and the Aztecs was of Mongolian origin, says a correspondent. Close to and partly beneath the ruins of the ancient city of Tootihuacan. about nineteen miles northeast of the City of Mexico, the scientists uncovered the still more ancient city of Otumba, which flourished with a wondrous civilization centuries before the Aztecs or Toitecs rose to power, possibly «Ven before Babylon and Nineveh jnvayed the destinies of western Asia. With the financial assistance of the Mexican government the expedition began the removal of a six-foot layer of earth, representing the dust and detritus of more than twenty centuries. This soon brought into view many evidences of a vast and populous city of a very high order of civilization. Chief %mong theBe was a great pyramid. It is 700 feet square at the base and its apex is 1S7 feet high, while many of the giant blocks of stone in its massive walls must have required extraordinary engineering skill to handle. This pyramid also has its riddle, for the axis of the main gallery is coincidental with the magnetic meridian. The workmanship is of a high order, the figures being boldly vdrawn and carefully colored. Then came the greatest discovery of all. While excavating near the base of the great pyramid Professor Niven unearthed the remains of yet a third civilization beneath the ruins of ancient Otumba, making three great cities of lost and forgotten races, built one above the other. In what appears to have been n tomb of the lowest city, whose age so far defies calculation, Professor Niven found the clay Image of a Chinaman, with oblique eye slits, padded coat, flowing trousers and slippers. Only fr-i* «»TTTtra^pr i v a j p con f c r e ^ w ^ n d ^ a i J i i e h a n q i l o t ^ M plete portrait of a mandarin of the recently defunct Chinese empire. It should be remembered, however, that the Chinese did not adopt the queue until after they had been conquered by the Tartar hordes from the north The image is about seven inches in length, and where the arms are broken the edges of tbe clay show red and friable in the center. The Miter surface of the clay, however, \a Df granite hardness and it is only with the greatest difficulty that it can )e chipped with a hammer. "This Chinese image," writes Pro- 'essor Niven, "was not made by the Aztecs. It is much older and proves Miat the ancient people of Mexico were familiar with the Mongol type "It should be borne in mind that this image was not a god or an idof, but an ornament — perhaps a portrait Representative Jefferson Levy of New York, in the center of the picture, is the owner of MonticeMo, the home of Thomas Jefferson, and refuses to sell it to the United States under compulsion. On the left is Mrs. Martin W. Littleton, and On the right her secretary, Miss Thompson, with their arms full of petitions to have the government buy Monticello, whether Mr. Levy will sell or not. the children of the poor ought not to be allowed to choose for themselves the higher lines of industrial life. • Straws may not show where the "real causes'' come from, and again 'they may.

It seems to mo that we have enough of such meaningless, silly display of so-called patriotism. Unless the American boy has a good reason to be proud of his country, ho it on account of the protection which the government affords its citizens as to life, property and libertv, or for other reasons, such a display must appear senseless. Uncovering the bead does not make for better men. It is a sham. In theaters one can notice the hysterical shouts of the horde when the flag is displayed. Is this patriotism? If young America, were made to understand the lack of fair-mindedness, the prevalence of dishonesty, the brutal cruelty to which the aged are subjected, the nation-wide plundering of- the people by some of their paid officers, if our boys could be made to see and abhor all American trickery, then, if these boys could be brought to work for a betterment of conditions, for the implanting of honesty, integrity and justice, such a patriotism would be worth while. Let us work to that end and forget the fcticbisnv demonstrated when the national anthem is sung. Let us first pledge our hoys to work toward producing conditions of which every American shall have reason to be proud. Then let us uncover our heads to the flag tbarflies over such a country !

Puyallup is t^he city, and if the run of salmon continues she will also be prominent as a fishing center as well as the hub of agriculture. As "fishy" as the story sounds, it Is nevertheless a fact, and should one care to venture to Puyallup in quest of the king of fish a well-filled string would be the result . The fish come from the Puyallup river through Clark's creek and into "Big Ditch," which crosses Meridian street, the main thoroughfare of the valley metropolis. The run is bo large that at times the water in .places bubbles'like an eddy. Persons in tbe vicinity of the stream have taken many a catch to their homes and there will undoubtedly be a slump in sales in the fish market as long as the run continues.

The father of Hortense and Robert kept a "reach-me-down" shop, in the Rue FaubouTg-du-Temple, and had several times been convicted of dealing In stolen goods. , After his death his bob and daughter carried on the business, but, more cautious than the old man, managed to keep clear of the law, and added considerably to their Income by lending money at fabulous rates. After a few years together, brother . and sister accused each other—probably with cause—of robbing the till, whereupon they gave up the shop, and Sally started a servants' registry office. Robert committed forgery, was sentenced to .three years' imprisonment, and after the expiration of his time left the country. Sally alsd graced the dock in connection with a case of swindling, but was acquitted, and for a long while nothing was heard of her. One morning a card was brought in to me bearing the name of Madame de Saint-Florent. Tt was Sally; and .-i^-~her~-EB#Wsh^©4£a44}ei—bird there be would have indulged in another laugh, for above her dowdy "I am have ciuite* enough criminals dress she wore a costly sable cape and a hat set rakishly on one side. "I ha^ve something to tell you, M. Ooron," she began her gruff voice; "Robert is back." - "Your brother?" She nflbled. ry to hear it," I said. "I on my hands, and could well have dispensed with him. Put why did you come to tell me that?" "Because I : n afraid of him. He looked so shabby and hungry that I bought him a rig-out and allowed him to take his meals with me. The other day I came home unexpectedly and found him busy with the lock of the cupboard in my bedroom. I forbade him to come to the house agaix. and then he threatened/me. and became so menacing that I gay*- him money to get rid of him. He will murder me one of these days." "If Robert threatens you/' I replied, •"You have only to go to the police commissary in yonr district; he will take the matter up/' "It's no use of my going Ihe re, 5£. Goron. I do not bear tike- best of reputations—'* "That you do not." ^ ul know it, sir. Aral, therefore., the police commissary will not trouble about me; nor would Robert mind him much. But the very mention of your name frightens my brother, and were you but to say a word to him it would bring him to his senses. Please do this for me, M. Goron." I told her that this affair did not concern me in any w;ay. Sally, however, left me no pea.ce. She said her life was in danger; and she begged »o hard that I at last promised to see her brother, and, to use her own •word*, "frighten him to death." "I shall be away from Paris for a week." I said, "so^you had better send me Robert in fen or twelve days." On my return from Cherbourg ray secretary informed me^/that Robert had called. j' "He has not grown handsomer/* laughed my assistant. "I gave him a good talking to, and he promised to leave Sally alone in the futile, although he asserts that all s h o u l d you «bTmt4ri8~tnreat£nJnx^^ his room in advance. He had not locked his door, and was found the next morning lying fully dressed ou the bed. The most careful examination of his papers faileu to throw any light on the affair, and at the official inquest a verdict *of suicide was returned. It transpired that M. F had withdrawn large amounts from his bank, no trace of which could be found. He neither speculated **hor gambled, and he always noted down every cent he spent. Yet of the hundred thousand francs that had disappeared no record could be found. What had become of the casb? His heirs movecj heaven and earth to And it, but in vain. Although I concurred in the verdict of suicide, I was not satisfied, for I scented blackmailers. Those who, like me, have lived in an atmosphere of crime, will know the mischief wrought by these scoundrels. In the pantomime of life, wherein criminals play such an important role, swindlers- and sharpers often impersonate the "funny man." But the blackmailer is the "villain,'* the traitor who stabs his victims irr the back, an4 rarely leaves a trace of his deadly work. When a few days aft^r M. F——'s funeral I called on his daughter and expressed my view, she indignantly declared that there could be nothing hidden in her father's life—a man whose refutation had been above suspicion. Her husband was of the same op^njony I knew they were speaking the truth, and I also knew that I could not hope for any help from them. After an anxious search I at last made an important discovery. M. F had engaged himself to a Baronne de V in Tours, and Jiad concealed this fact from his daughter ami his friends. Deeply in !ove with Madame de V ~ — , he had pressed her hard to fix their wedding for an early date, whereupon it was .arranged that it was to have taken place toward the end of June, tn less than a fortnight, however, he had suddenly become despondent, and, to the iady'ssurprise, had Informed her that the wedding heeivf-had--to--bg p^sTponedr-• ~ - - All this was related to me by Madame de;.V , who wks^pager to asof Hes/' "Why did he not wait for my return?'* I asked. "I reckon, sir, he was too frightened of you, and preferred me to deal with him." —Several-months elapsed, when the news reached me that a M / F had been found dead in a hotel in the Rue Lafayette. He was a widower, highly respected, and a member of two fashionable clubs. The postmortem show ed he had died from poisoning, and everything pointed to a suicide, although neither his married daughter, his valet or cook could assign any reason for the act. At the hotel I learned that M. F—r had come there the previous evening rftt about ten o'clock, and had paid for sis(t rri/ in^siTfiftg the matter, As I rosVfo take my leave she said: "The last time my poor friend was here he left, his cigarette-case behind, and inside '1 found this scrap of paper. It is in his handwriting, and the notes in pencil refer^ to a sale of a small estate ho owned. T am afraid you will not find it. very useful." 1 examined the leaflet with care. "Madame," I replied, "this scrap discloses four distinct facts, which, pieced together, may s-upply a valuable clue." ."What facts0 " , "The address printed at the top of the page is that of a shady cafe in the Boulevard Roebechouart. And did you notice, the curious characters at the back?" "Yes, - T did. 1 fancied they were Hebrew letters." "No,- they are Arabic^-JTEOm all this I deduce: First, thai/your friend, who could have gone tq such a place only under compulsion, did not meet the' people he had come to see; second that, having had to wait for them, he tfhiled away the time by scribbling these^otes on a piece of letter-paper he found lying on the table: third, that he grew impatient and restless, for ihe characters at the back are jotted down nervously and lack the firmness of the other writing; fourth, that, as * Arabic is not a language usuall&f aught at college, it is more than probable ^hat M. F spent some time in our African colonies." "Why, yes/' Madame de V — — exclaimed. "I remember he once described to me a scene he witnessed in Oran.'* • "That simplifies matters." I rejoined, "and I can now set to work." 'It is not always easy to dive Into a dead 'man's past. The moment the human machinery haB been brought to a standstill everything that once gravitated around him seems to disappear. He is forgotten by friends, and detractors who persecuted him to his last breath have potent reasons never to mention his name. But the threads supplied to me by i hat note would, I expected, put me on the right course, and I felt I could not have any peace as long as the miscreants responsible for M . P 's death went about unchallenged. The statement made to me by M. p »s daughter that her father's •reputation was above suspicion was undoubtedly true as far as Paris was concerned. If, therefore, there was a blot in.the man's life I bad to look for it elsewhere, and Oran at once presented itself to m> mind. I made discreet inquiries, and learned that some twelve years ago M. p 1 while in Oran, had allowed himself to be^ foolishly implicated In a scandal, which, thanks to powerful protection, 'had been hushed up. While I was trying to clear up that side of the problem, it was also essential that I should know something of th* people who frequented the cafe in the -Boulevard Rochechouart, and I selected as my observatory a rival establishment a few doors oft, whence I could watch thoae passing in and out. I .fee w 1 coujrj^ely my memory, and on the first day recognized many who in various ways bad passed through my hands. Not a few of tbem had anything but clean records, but they were either book-makers, sharp era, or tricky horse-dealers, frequenters of the race-course, whose specialty lay in a different direction. One evening, half an hour after I bad reached my post of observation. 1 saw a clean-shaven man walk up and take his seat outside. After a while he tapped at the window for a waiter, who replied to a question put to him, whereupon the man flew into a rage and, talking rapidly, pulled once or twice the lobe of his left ear. I looked at him in surprise. Many years ago I had known a fellow who. when his temper was roused, indulged in that curious habit. He was nicknamed the "Patriarch," because of his long heard; but he was reported to have died in the Toulon hospital. Hj^ name was Bachelet, and he had .been a notorious blackmailer. I cautiously got close to him, and then do doubt was possible. It was the "Patriarch," minus his beard and w!th his hair dyed black. Even had I not seen him pull his ear I should have known him by his eyes. He *was a cunning rascal, who to save his skin would not scruple to turn on his accomplices, which accounted for his having^ance received an ugly knife-thrust. ApfrmighN be declared at the time he taid not know his assailant, I suspected he haq good reason to conceal the truth. While I was watching him a\ man in a dirty blouse and torn cap, his <face begrimed wi]th dirt, the type of the Paris loafer, slouched past me and gave me a hardly perceptible nod. I had trouble to keep from laughing; "Toward ten o'clock he went, Jump- ' ed on a 'bus, changed twice, and when near the Boulevard Ney got down and walked toward the Rue Ropsse.au. It is a dark street, or I could not have followed him. At the end of the .sTreet, where a house is being built, I saw him climb over the palings, looking for something or somebody. He remained there for two hours, and then returned home the way he came. "Yesterday he rose late, spent the greater part of ihe afternoon in the cafe wtyere you pointed him out to me; and, the moment darkness had set in again, took up his position behind the palings in the Rue Rousseau. "I was beginning to wonder what it all meant, when I saw a woman walk down the street at a brisk pace. She was about a couple of yards from the place where I was hiding. At that moment Latouche rushed up to her. and, seizing her roughly by both arms, called out: 'I've caught you at last, you beauty,' But with a quick movement she shook him off, and turned on him like a tigress. At the same time her veil fell off and I recognized— whom do you think?—Sally, the—" "I know. Go on with your story." "Bachelet!' she shrieked, "I'll—' "But the fellow did not let. her c«ntinue. 'Don't bawl like that, you demon,' he hissed; 'only tell me where your brother is. You know how he swindled me. tbe despicable hound. Where-Is he?' " T swear I know nothing about him,' she cried. 'Hut if ever you dare again lay your dirty fingers on me. I'll bawl the name of Bachelet a little louder that I did tonight!' And she strutted away. Aa T wanted to report to you, I sent word to Berard to take my place and keep the fellow under observation. Do you want me to watch him further?" "No, Darlaud," I f=ald. "But tomorrow you must tell him I want to see to ask protection against her brother because be threatened her life; but 1 know better, It's all blarney. They meet at her house, and I have seen Robert go there repeatedly late at night and not come out aguin. Robert did me a bad turn. 1 meant to be even with him, and kept my eye on the pair. No easy matter, for they are never seen together. I found out he had dealings with a gentleman who seemed to stand in terror of him, and I traced this gentleman to his address in the Rue de Provence. His name, 1 discovered, was M . F , and when I heard he committed suicide I connected Robert with the affair. I ought to say Robert and his sister; for they work together, although the sister always manages to keep i n the background." "I compliment you on your detective skill," I said; "but how is It you bring me this information after so many weeks have elapsed?" "Because Robert suddenly disappeared, and I waited for his return before calling on you. Robert has been blackmailing that poor M . F , and, under the threat of disclosing something that occurred at Oran, succeeded in extracting a lot of money from his victim." "How do you know this?" I asked. "I heard it from one of Robert's pals, whom he cheated, like he does everybody." "Like he cheated you, too, in that business, I suppose?" He started from his chair. "No, *M. Goron," he cried, "I had nothing to do with this affair, or I would not be here to tell you about it." And'the old rascal bowed himself out. of the room. It is not to the credit of mankind that nine-tenths of the information supplied to the police is prompted by revenge; Rachelet. of course, had participated in the blackmailing affair, W H E N S H E SAW M E . S H E SHOOK HER H 5 T AT ME for, despite his disguise* I recognized darlaud,.one of my men. Poor Darjaud! In his constant hunt after criminals of the lowest order he rarely had time to appear in respectable clothes. It was even said that on his sister's wedding-day he had not found a minute to put on a clean suit, and that when be attempted to enter the church the beadle wanted to give him into custody. I walked a- little way in front of him and then turned around. "Do you see that man outside the cafe over yonder?" I asked. "Yes, sir." "Do not lose sight of him, and report his movements to me." On the afternoon of the third day Darlaud turned up. "I scent a mystery, sir." he began. -•-iflo-do-4^ tbe solution* of the mystery that puzzles you may prove the solution of the one I am trying to work out." "Well, s i r " he continued, "I never lost sight of my man; I had to go carefully to work, for he Is/terribly wide-awake. He madenme-tfrot. He dined at a wine-shop in the Rue Louis- Blanc, then strolled toward the Rue Belleville and entered an hotel kept by a man called Coulon. A minute later I saw him at one of the windows in his shirt-sleeves, HOA gathered he lived there. I at oncfr asked for a room for myself, and managed, to secure one two doors from our friend. His name, I discovered, Is Charles Latouche, or, rather, that is how he entered in the hotel books. matter, and you Address him, of him on a personal will bring him hero, course, as Latouche." The next morning at eleven he was f<hown in. His face was thin and crafty, and he peered at rue with curiosity and cunning expressed in his puckered eyes. *— "You are Latouche?" I began. "Yes, sir—Charles Latouche." "I have.an interesting communication to make to you. A man has just died, leaving all his estate to a certain Charles Latouche: and I h;.ve been asked to hunt for -/this fortunate heir. Have you any papers to prove your identity in case you are that lucky man?" He stared at me in bewilderment, and his hand slowly crept up to his left ear. will make me think of some one Mho had the same curious knack. His name was Bachelet." He turned Jivid. But I saw it was with rage and not from fear. " "When you began about tbat legacyV^ he said, "I kr.ew you were only making iun of me. Yes. I am Bach* elet; and I changed mjv&ame because of my past life. 'Tf you had not sent tor me. I would have come to see you, for I have something to say u> you. It refers to Hortense and Roberr Perrichon, sister and brother, twins, a queer couple, awfully alike. You know them?" "Yes." "They are a pair of scoundrels. The woman spread the story that she had and had evidently been defrauded by his confederate. With his usual caution, however, he had kept, on tbe K&fe side, and could, therefore, risk Renouncing him. I ordered Inspector Berard to arrest Robert, and, as we had not yet discovered his whereabouts to watch Rally's house, where he was supposed to go every night. 'Sally lived near the Porte Clingnaeourt, on the outskirts of the city, a forlorn spot facing the fortifications. It was a dismal building situated In what, had once been a garden, but had become a wilderness. A thick, high hedge ran along the front of the house, which ttood some yards away from the road; a v.;.'! ,. ; a ditch protected it at the back. In the garden was a well, walled In with massive ^tOTer---8eTeTar^^ of the dwelling were broken and blocked with wooden boards. A l - together, it was a gloomy place that would have lent itself admirably for a sensational scene i n a melodrama. On the morning of the fifth day, I_ found Inspector Berard sitting in my office looking very uncomfortable. "What's amiss?" I asked. "Kverythlng.V he" replied. "Fabre and I watched tho premises ^ very closely arid saw tho woman go out several times. But never k sign of Robert.

We want your help, sir." I jumped into a cab with my secretary, and drove straight to Sally'* house. Inspector Berard was outside, and informed me that the woman wa*i really ill. and th&t some one had gone to fetch medical help. I made a thorough investigation o# tbe place, my men following my m o ^ ment with curiosiiy. 1 went down the dricd-up well, and saw that the old stones, firmly cemented together, had. not been moved for a century, )\ tapped all the floors and walls, but found no trace of any secret passage* "Any clue, fir?" asked Berard. "Yes. Robert has been caught Ift his own trap, findvcannot get away. And now 1 shall pay a visit to Bally." The rooml entered was in a terribly untidy state. The floor, chairs, and tables were littered with artlclea ed the most heterogeneous description, and a strong tmf Jl of spirits pervaded the place. Stilly was sitting up In bedu her head propped up with pillows- When she saw me she shook ber floft at me and said )n an angry tone: "What do you want?

Legislature Would Prov foe^f&r Refersrjc'u. vi Soon After Election. X E years' residence in the Philippines in the civil service and as an officer in the Philippine constabulary excellent ly qualifies Capt. William E. Moore of that service to speak with authority as to administrative conditions on those islands. Captain Moore is the son of Levi \V Moore of Milford, Mass., manager of the Grafton ik. Upton railroad. He graduated from Milford schools and learned practical railroading under his father's instruction. His attention was drawn to the PJktfippiaes, and he entered service in Manila in the department having to do with transportation problems. He arrived in that city in October, 1903, but Buch was his efficiency that he was induced to accept appointment in the Philippine constabulary, beginning January 1, 1905. Iliy varied duties and service may be inferred from his work having fcecn in tho island-of TVIindaro in 1905, 7rr~r^trn~trr opinion as to the probable effect in the island of the great political change of the recent United States election, an editorial from the Manila Times of recent date may help to allay unnec-. essary apprehension of radical trouble. "It says: 'In all ordinary circumstances the prospect of a change of administration ^at Washington would be expected to/ influence, if it did not adversely affect, <^u^TTt^ ^conditions. Hut nothing 'of the kind has happened. Manila buys and builds and rents and sells in full confidence that no result of the American election can adversely affect its future. . . . No result at Washington can break tire era of stability and order in the* Philippines.' "But it is of the- constabulary and its work that I am most desirous to talk, for it is a subject with which I am most familiar. It is an organization of which but little is known outside of the islands, for a tacit rule of the command is>'silence and circumspection.' The 6hief or director is. Prig. Gen. Harry H. Bahdholtz of the United States army .and four of the to Cho mountain province of Ifugao in 190&, at headquarters in Manila unt i l August, 1910, then at San Fernando, L a Union, Northern Luzon until July, 1911, and then again to headquarters in Manila last summer, when he was given a six months' furlough. Much of what he says as to tbe routine of the officers and the constabulary is a synopsis of his own experience. H e will return to duty this month. Less than thirty years old, his position well illustrates the avenues of advancement for young men of energy disposed to steadiness and industry and ambitious. In his judgment the operation of the Panama canal will lend much impetus to the interest felt in the.-Atlantic coast commercial centers in our far* Eastern possessions have no Moore, "that -::4 mmdoubt," said Captain newspaper readers are fully familiar with general- conditions, . political and military, in the islands, their location and physical characteristics. - "For instance, it may be remembered that the imports of these islands i n the past fiscal year were $54,500,- 000 and the exports were $50,300,000: that these represented more than 12 per cent increase in each over the preceding year; that 40 per cent, of the imports are from the United States, while four years before the percentage was but 20 per cent. The increase in copra, hemp, sugar and tobaccp exports is remarkable and is in. creasing "There is ai/* increasing proportion <of tho native residents becoming selfsupporting and thrifty, more rice and •cano lands are under cultivation, more , attention paid by the natives to better home comforts and less to petty quara- els and indolence.

"The constabulary is in no way a part of the regular army. The executive head is the governor general of the Philippines and the immediate chief is the secretary of the insular department of commerce and police, to whom the * {rector reports. "The constabulary is a semi-military body for police service. Last July it included 333 commissioned officers from brigadier general-to second lieutenant, and 4,489 enlisted men, divided among Manila headquarters, five district headquarters, an information department, medical division, a constabulary band and oflicers' school "There are 96 companies, each having three officers and 45. men. Except 50 Filipinos, now commissioners, all the officers are Americans. Several of .the latter came to Manila with the volunteers in the 1893 campaign, some are of the regular army and still others come from civil life, transferred from the classified civil service. Some- of the officers have had service or training at West Point, or Annapolis. Of late appointments have been confined to pupils of leading military schools of the States. "The enlisted men are entirely Filipinos. Seven companies are from the Moros (Mahometans of Mindanao), three are of Bontoc (Igorrotes)), two are of Ifugaos, or wild men of Northern Luzon, and the rest are of Chris- B R A Z I L IS L A N D O F C O F F E E tian Filipinos from different parts of the islands. 'The constabulary do all sorts of public service, from entertaining men establishing quarantines, fighting disease, relieving the poor, setrhrrrg-village disputes, giving official countenance to village functions, creating-^enal and medical stations, etc. "The consiabulario is well trained. Besides his drill in soldiery duties he «6 taught outlines of the penal code of the islands, the municipal code, patrol and secret service work, different ways of getting information from natives, clear observation and equally clear reports thereon, the settlement of village disputes. "The annual duty of a mamber of the constabulary staff forces him to learn many things not in any book of tactics. He may be one week a deep-sea navigator and then jump to mountain service. When on duty in coast towns in the lowlands he is used to travel on all sorts of native craft or modern motor boats: must know something of tides and shore currents; must know all small coves or harbors of refuge; must know how to avoid ufcset in surf by backing to shore in his rowboat and prevent a smashed craft. "The officers receive extra compensation for qualifying in a native dialect and this is a very important factor in his efficiency, for to be able to greet some old native in his' native tongue adds much to the respect in which he is held by the natives. "In such cases the native knows the officer better, trusts him quicker and sooner gives that confidence that is so greatly an element of peaceful control of the islands. The officer thus learns things and men he never could, through an interpreter, and the native as quickly learns the former is his friend and protector so long as he is Iaw-abidin^^ancLhonest He learns_also While some members of the legis- Ilature ho ye to finish by April 1, the majority can't see the end of business before May 1.

"The poor man will literally kill his last chicken unless you stop him first for your meal, and when an Ifugao chief sees you coming down a trail to his hut he will run to meet you with a bottle of 'bubud,' a native drink.

For a while these were the principal sources of supply.

How many persons dread to eat their meals, although actually hungry nearly all the time! Nature never intended this should he so, for we are given a thing called appetite that should guide us as to what the system needs at any time and can digest. But we get in a hurry, swallow our food very much as we shovel coal into the furnace, and our sense of appetite becomes unnatural and perverted. Then we eat the wrong kind, of food or eat too much, and there you are— Indigestion and its accompanying miseries. A Phila. lady said: "My husband and I have been sick and nervous for 15 or 20 years from drinking coffee—feverish, indigestion, totally unfit, a good part of the time, for work or pleasure. We actually dreaded to eat our meals. (Tea is just as injurious, because it contains caffeine, the same drug found in coffee.) "We tried doctors and patent medicines that counted up into hundreds of dollars, with little if any benefit. "Accidentally, a small package of Postum came into my hands. I made some according to directions, with surprising results. We both liked i t and have not used any coffee since. "The dull feeling after, meals has left us and we feel better every way. We are so well satisfied with Postum that we recommend it to our friends who have been made sick and nervous and miserable hy coffee."

Bills For Good Shoes, Recall of All Elective State Officers, Abolishing Certain Offices, Etc., Are Now In. [By Gurd M. Hayes.] State Highway Commissioner Townsend A. Ely will ask the legislature to appropriate $1,000,000 to be used, in the construction of state reward roads during the^next two years. Governor Ferris, in his inaugural message to the legislature strongly indorsed a plan to improve the condition of the, roads in this state and it is expected that. Ely's request for a liberal appropriation will receive some consideration at the hands of the present law making body. Hpwever, Highway Commissioner Ely says that if the legislature will act favorably on. Secretary of State Frederick C. Martind&le's proposal which was approved by Governor Ferris, to eliminate the local tax from automobiles, increase the state license fee and turn the proceeds into the highway fund, that it will be unnecessary to ask the state for an appropriationv of $1,000,000. Enlargement of the Capitol. Rep. Charles Flowers, of Detroit, introduced a bill calling for an appropriation of $750,000 for the purpose.of building an addition to the state capitol. This measure is indorsed by the state bar assocaitiou and every county bar association in Michigan. Two paramount reasons are mentioned why the building should be enlarged. Tho first is that the state has outgrown the quarters provided when the state house was constructed in the middle seventies. The second paramount reason for the appropriation, it is claimed, is, that the contents of the state library, conservatively estimated to be worth $300,000, would be destroyed^, a fire got good headway, for the books and valuable documents are not properly protected. The Game Laws.^ State Game and Forestry Warden W. R, Oate3, in the annual report of his department, recommends a num- "ber of radical change's in•"Ttref=present laws. Civil service for employes, limiting hunters to one deer and changing the opening of the season to November 10, the abolishment of spring shooting of wateV f^wl and shore birds, requiring non-resident fishermen to secure license and increasing the number of deputies from 10 to 20,, are among Oates' recommendations. The passage of a bill providing that each resident hunter shall pay a license fee of one dollar, which license shall be issued and used only during the open season, would supply an annual revenue of $100,000, it is estimated by the department. "Pure Shoe Bill." On a par with the now celebrated "pure wool proposal" with which Congressman Lindquist, of Greenville, won his way to a seat in congress from the eleventh district, is the bill of Senator Woodworth of Huron county, which might be termed the "pure shoe bill," The Wodworth bill is a copy of the measure now pending in congress and a somewhat similar law passed by the Louisiana legisl ture. The bill does not pp&hi&^t^JJhe use of inferior materials In the construction of shoes, but provides that when anything other than leather is used in the manufacture of supposed leather footwear, the fact shall be plainly labelled or printed on the shoes. ^ F i l l i n g the Hopper. Among the progressive measures introduced \in the house was one by Rep. Dunn'providing for the recall of all elective state officers. Rep. WJielan, progressive from Hillsdale, and Rep. Murphy from St. Joseph, sent in practically duplicate bills prohibiting the intermarriage' of whites and colored races. Following are some of the more important bills dumped into the house hopper: Bill permitting the sale of rabbits; bill authorizing reciprocal demurrage of railroads; bill providing for the Torrens system of land transfers; bill providing firemen's pension fund; bill permitting students and traveling men to vote away from home; bill providing better hotel sanitation; bill providing hospitals for inebriates; bill requiring saloons to remove all screens-and—bills-providing" amendments to the banking laws. inspection of Gasoline. Rep. L. J. Wojcott, of Albion, presented a Bill tfrovftfing for a complete and thorough inspection of gasoline sold in Michigan. It also provides for labeling of the benzine series as "naphtha" if they fall below 60 degrees Beau me, and as gasoline when they are above that figure. A l l gasoline, by the VVolcott bill, will have to be It is evident, judging by the way things have lined up during the opening days of the session, that the calcium light will be turned on the house this year, as the senators have evidenced a desire to pull together and work for some good legislation. Not so, however, with the members of the house. Of such a progressive nature during the last regular and special sessions that it was willing to • push through any sort of a measure, the house attracted considerable attention for its willingness to act, but this year it is apparent that some of the old time leaders are bucking over the traces. Already some of the progressive republicans in the house are complaining'that the leaders of the G. O. P. majority are not acting for the best interests of the party and the people of the state, and the whole trouble has apparently arisen over the adoption of the resolution introduced by Rep. Farmer, the democratic leader, that all recounts shall be discontinued and no action taken. Rep. D. G. F. -Warner, who has been an avowed and ppen supporter of the liquor interests in the house for several years, aided the democratic leader in the passage of the resolution. Every democrat, a number of progressives whose seats were to have been contested, and several republicans, supported the resolution. The republicans who were anxious to have some of the districts recounted allege that it was a move on the part of the liquor interests. This statement has apparently caused a fine little split in the ranks of the republicans in the lower house and there is no telling to what lengths the controversy may be carried. Calmer heads over in the senate are already urging the recalcitrant members of the house to bury the hatchet and assist, in putting through some good legislation. Shipments of Live Stock. Rep.4Dunn, of Sanilac, has prepared a bill compelling railways to give live .stock precedence over ordinary freight A movement has been started in Michigan and surrounding states by live stock buyers and shippers, which is based on the fact that the railways have made stock shipments feel the brunt of the delays. The bill establishes a minimum rate of speed for stock shipments of say 15 miles per hour while in Michigan territory. Shippers claim tho railroads made it, a business to hold up stock in order to add feeding charges and then only furnish feed enough for a tenth of the number shipped. , State Tax Commissiono. If the senate affirms the appointments of Gpvernor Ferris the democrats will control the state tax com- .mission as the r.hiftg executive has, named Thomas Kearney, of Ann Arbor and Orlando F. Barnes, of Roscommon to succeed Thomas D. White and W. B. Mershon. Barnes has twice been the democratic candidate for land commissiqner_and a number of years ago was democratic mayor of the city of Lansing. Kearney has long been a prominent democrat in Washtenaw county. Free Text Books. There is considerable opposition already being manifested against the bilte providing for free text books and uniform text books. One prominent member of the legislature says that if the present law was applied there would be no demand for free text books, as the law specifically provide*s that school districts can purchase books at wholesale and either sell or give them away to school children.

Thousands of rats, and all big wood rats, have invaded the place, and the situation is such tbat women are afraid to go to church. The rats seem to have a preference for churches and on several occasions have forced the feminine attendance at services to take to the high benches. The city authorities arc seeking means to abate the pest. The rats are believed to have been driven out of the woods by recent fires in the forests. The Infant Terrible.

"I shall visit all of the state departments, as I believe that it is the duty of the chief executive to be on good terms with the men who are transacting the state's business," said Ferris. "I shall visit the legislature sometimes.

New tangled ways have routed out the good old ways which you understood flo well, you will be informed—and all of that. But tbe truth is, Time makes precious little difference. The boys and girls today do have just as good a time as we bad, although they may have it in different ways in some respects. They may now ride in autos instead of buggies; they may have full dreas ball instead of the old fashioned dances; they may dress differently every day in the week.

W. CAVKULY, Publisher r i N C K N E Y . - - MICHIGAN YOUNGEST EUROPEAN CITY. Odessa is one of the youngest of European cities. Only 120 years ago. Hdjtt Bey, a little Turkish settlement, nestled on the cliffs that overlook the harbor and dozed und.r the sultan across the Black sea, writes Sydney Atfamson in Harper's Magazine. The long arm of Russj^ reached out and took it, and planted there, upon the plateau overlooking the bay, the beginners of a commercial city that now holds between 500,000 and 600,000, The revolution in Fiance soon sent refugees scattering over the world, and noble names came to Odessa, and one may read them still on street corners —Dartbas, Richelieu and Langeron. Later Englishmen came and brought ships to carry away Russian ^grain/and then the Crimean war swept across this friendly relation. But the English staid when the war had passed, and then Germany came, m d afterward Americans, with reapers and plows and steam traction engines, to help the Russians to grow more richly the grain that the English and the German ships carried out to the world. Last of all came the Jews, and they cut the business so fine thr.t the English starved and gave up; so the business of exporting today is mainly in the hands of the Jews. A few hardy Germans and English are left. The Mercury de France has been making some inquiries as to the respective popularity of the various modern languages in tho schools of Europe, and it finds that French is still far ahead of all compqtitors. It says that in England German finds less and less favor, and that pupils who have any option fir-regard to a modern language always choose French^,- In France, however, since 1870, Gjferman has perhaps secured a preponderance over English in the bycees, says the Westminster Gazettre. In Germany the study of French has progressed to the detriment of English, but the government has intervened in order to develop the teaching of English, which it regards as of great importance in commercial matters. French is how taught in Italy more (han ever before, but German is also gaining some ground, especially in the north. In Spain French has more pupils than any other foreign language, and English comes next. The passion for censorship seems to be on the increase. It may properly be considered as a by-product of the growing paternalism on the part of our government. In the newspaper post office bill we have the first stages of a censorship of the press. There is also a censorship of the moving picture industry/ which will doubtless In time be extended to the whole theatrical field. Already this is true in England, says Life. What is really needed, however, is a censorship to suppress the truth. The truth is getting very bold in these days, and unless some measures are taken to curtail her activities, lamentable results will follow. The governor of Michigan urges a sort of church uniform dress for women, plain and inexpensive, which all can wear. So guileless a theory ought to be followed up by a proposal that horse races should be conducted with a view of affording artistic enjoyment hy the easy grace of horses, with all ?tUng eliminated. A great joke was played upon President Hadley at the recent banquet for the Harvard foolbafl team by the Boston alumni. A student, cleverly disguised, and speaking broken English, was Introduced to the "Prexy" as "Herr Baron von Keppel," just over from Germany! President Lowell lent himself to the foreigner's entertainment, recalling other distinguished foreigners who had shown interest In the university.

N E W S F R O M T H E S T A T E C A P I T O L BASIC S Y S T E M OF T R U N K LINE STATE ROADS TO BE BUILT BY CONVICT LABOR. A BILL FOR STATE* WIDE PROHIBITION COMING JJP. The Session of the Legislature Is Now Growing More and More Inter- ^ eating to the People Each Day. " i t i s said that the sultan of Turkey Is skilled as a pianist. Most of his victims would prefer to be massacred. They? say that the new $10,000 bill Is a work of art But only the millionaire collectors can afford to have it framed* / A Seattle boy of twelve has"* beautiful crop of whiskers. Wonder If they're the latest style? [By Gurd M . Hayes.] William H . Allsweed, national progressive senator from the twentyfourth district, will be the good roads advocate of the present session. His ideas on the need of good highways are a little advanced of even the average enthusiast on good roads and his scheme for a basic system of trunk line state roads is attracting attention and general commendation. He has been busy for some time preparing measures to pave the way for a system of Michigan trunk line highways. He has the plan^worked out and is now getting bills ready for introduction to put them into execution. His scheme calls for three trunk line highways in the lower peninsula. One of these is the Western Michigan lake shore line project to extend from Niles to Mackinac, another is a central north and south line on the meridian and another across the state line from Detroit to St. Joseph. Another .projpct calls for an upper peninsula road. The idea is to construct this 1,000 miles of state road, using convict albor and drawing upon half the automobile tax to cover the expense. He claims it will cost about $2,000,000 and can be completed in two or three years. Changes in Compensation. * Important changes in the workingmen's compensation act are advocated by Senator Frank James, of Hancock, in a bill introduced in the- upper house. The changes have been approved by the labor leaders of the state and are well received by the members of the legislature. One change provides that no compensation shall be paid for an injury which does not incapacitate the employe for more than one week. Under the present law the limit is two weeks. Another provision sets forth that compensation shall begin on the eighth day after the injury, instead of 15 days, as under the present law, and if the injury continues so as to incapacitate and employe for four weeks or longer, compensation shall start at the date of the injury. Senator James has introduced another bill giving the employer the right to pay the employe compensation direct, in case the employer carries insurance and also gives the employers the right to receive the amount of the compensation direct j'rom the insurance company. Governor Favors Suffragists. Governor Ferris gladdened the hearts of the suffragists of this state when he declared at the annual meeting of the Michigan Equal Suffrage Association that he was absolutely in favor of their cause and that he would do everything in his power to assist them when the constitutional amendment is submitted to a vote in this state again. The democratic chief executive declared to the women that victory would come to thyn either at the next election or in some election to follow. ^Although he expressed, the belief that It would not be possible for him to take the stump in their behalf, owing to pressing duties in the executive office, Governor Ferris informed the delegates that they could call on him for assistance in any other way. Contests A l l Settled. A l l of the contests in the house and senate resulted in favor of the candidates tb whom certificates of election had previously been issued. However, the battle in the senate betweeri Senator James MoGregor ,the democratic member from Ypsialnti, and Frank Covert, the defeated republican from Pontiac, nearly resulted in\a fine little row. Many republican stalwarts came here to intercede in Covert's behalf, but the senate held that the intent of the voters was clear despite the apparent Irregularities in conduct- In^ the ^ by a vote of 22 to 9, McGregor waff permitted to retain his seat. Stenographic Reports There is a possibility that the proceedings of the Michigan legislature, including all the debates will be recorded by stenographers and that the report will be. as complete as the congressional record at Washington, Senator James Murtha, the democratic .floor leader introduced a resdlution to make a complete, report of the^e-asion, but inserted a provision to the effect that no ''undelivered" speeches could be read ijato the record. State Wide Prohibition. Despite the fact that many members were anxious to avoid i t there is every indication that the liquor question will play a prominent part in the deliberations of present legislature. Rep. Dunn of Sanalac county, started the ball rolling when he introduced a concurrent resolution to be submitted to the electors of Michigan at the fall election in 1914 providing for state wide prohibition. One of the great features o^the Dunn resolution is the unqualified support given the state wide prohibition movement by the Michigan Anti-Saloon league. Here toi'pre the league and the prohibitionists of the state have not worked in harmony, the league leaders claiming that prohibition was sxnjgbt after, but was not practical. T^is year the leaders are evidently inclined to the belief that the time is ripe for success and the league is willing to devote itself to prohibition for the whole state instead of confining its efforts to local option. The method of submitting the matter as an amendment to the constitution is deemed to involve more work but if successful is certain to be more secure. In a long interview J. F. Burke, state superintendent- of the Anti-Saloon league commends the resolution and the state wide prohibition However, it is not expected that the Durin resolution will have an easy time going through the two houses and it would not be surprising it' the measure is killed outright. It is known that there will be strong opposition t*o it and it is doubtful whether the supporters of the state wide prohibition movement will be able to muster two thirds of the upper house in its favor. Re-elected U. S. Senator. United States Senator William A l - den Smith has been re-elected by the republicans of Michigan to serve another term of six years as one of Mich-, iguns's representatives in {he upper house cf congress. Party lines were closely drawn when the legislature ratified the primary vote. Each of the 74 republicans stood firmly for Senator Smith, the 40" democrats rallied to the support of Alfred Lucking, wtfile the 17 national progressives voted as a unit for Theodore Joslin. Lucking's vote was the largest that any democratic candidate for United States senator* in Michigan has received, in a great many years. As a general rule there is a top heavy republican majority in the legislature and democratic candidates for this honor have stood little or no chance. When the final decision was rendered at the joint session Senator Smith was present and addressed the members. It was not so very many years ago that Senator Smith, then "Biliy" Smith, was a page in the legislature, running the errands of the members of the house. For the second time he has been elected by the legislature to serve the people of Michigan as the United States senate. It is generally believed that a Michigan legislature has performed this function for the last time as it is the opinion of a majority of the lawmakers that United States senators will be elected by direct .vote, before 1917 when Senator Charles E. Townsend's term expires. Repeal of Telephone Law. Some of the small, independent telephone companies through the state have already learned that the cerebrated Giles law, passed at the session of 1911, was not the peoples' measur©Jt was painted. The public is awakening to the fact that some one^slipped^ one- over in the interests of rfhe tele-* phone mergers, and the freezing out of the little companies, and Rep. John Schmidt of Osceola cpunty has introduced a bill for a repeal of the law. Schmidt says the little companies have gotten the worst of the deal and he claims that the grange influence that'was directed in favor of the Giles bill two years ago now stands for its repeal. Various Bills. Rep. Follette introduced a bill compelling railways carrying live stock to give precedence over all other freight. Rep. Catlin of Ingham has introduced a bill placing all county officials on a salary, basis and eliminating the fee system. It is not .thought that this bill 'will pass, as the office of sheriff, county clerk and.register of deeds are fixed by the constitution which provides that they may receive fees and It ^vould require a constitutional amendment to change the present system. Rep. Whelan of Hillsdale has introduce d~a~b1 11 providihg for the" pensioning of school teachers. Rep. McBride of Shiawassee has presented a bill requiring itinerant creamery projects to file evidence of responsibility with the state dairy and food department-be- ^ o r e ~ W e ^ ^ line of credit in the purchase of milk. State Tax Commlsslono. IX the senate affirms the appointments of Governor Ferris the democrats will control the state tax commission as the chief executive has named Thomas Kearney, of Ann Arbor and Orlando F. Barnes, of Roscommon to succeed Thomas D. White and W. B. Mershon. Barnes has twice been the democratic candidate for land commissioner and a numbekof years ago*was democratic mayor of the city of Lansing. Kearney has long been a prominent democrat In Washtenaw county". T W O W A I F S O F T H E C A R I B B E A N S E A Willie Gee of Jamaica is a veritable "waif of the Bea." Down where Willie lives the bathing is always fine, and he "takes to water like a fish." While the old steamer the Foxton Hall was plowing along near the Windward passage Mate Donnelly espied a monster cocoanut tree, to which a human being was clinging. The being turned out to be a little ten-yearold Jamaican pickaninny, almost starved to death, but clinging to his dog. They had been blown 100 miles out to sea in a hurricane. Inequality Found in Parcef Post. Patrons of the parcel post in the northern part of the United States have discovered they are unable in all cases to send packages the full fifty miles prescribed as the extent of the first zone. This is due to the fact that a degree of longitude ^Is considerably shorter in the northern than in the southern part of the country. The phenomenon nas led to the complaint that parcel post patrons are being overcharged on first zone distances and to the suspicion that a mistake was mi.de in the working out of the zone maps. The department tsates, however, that the variation is unavoidable and that no injustice is involved. Power Firms Liable to Fines iThe state of Michigan, through the state railroad commission, is in a position to pick up about $100,000 a day in penalties from power and light companies in the state. Only 34 had filed tariff schedules with the commission, and all had been ordered to have their rates on file by Jan. 15; There is a penalty of $300 for disobeying this order of the commission and the law states that each day shall be considered to constitute a separate offense, U. S. Interested in P. M.'s Train. Postmaster General Hitchcock is going to take a hand in the proposal by the Pere Marquette railway to discontinue train No. 1, running between Detroit and Saginaw. Marquette persists it mail-carrying conwith the United If the Pere may forfeit every tract it now has States. »The head of the postoffic^r department is known to take the stand that it is not proper for railroads, for the sake of escaping a temporary loss, to discontinue the operation of federal mail trains. It is further known that Postmaster General Hitchcock is ot^the opinion that railroads should not be allowed thus to disarrange the mail service on one route without being made to suffer on other routes. Many mail contracts are renewable about this time and if the train in question, which carries heavy mails, is withdrawn. It is likely to affect negotiations as to other routes in the state. 25,000 Albanians Slain by Serbs. Twenty-five thousand Albanians have been "more or less wantonly" killed in the Turkish province of Kossovo by the Servian regulars and irregulars since the invasion by yiem of Eft*QP_ean Turkey, according/to trn^ Reichpost 0£ Vienna.

Michigan's Bull Moose on the 14th of January entered into the fullness of their national victory in this state, when 15 presidential electors assembled in the senate chamber in Lansing and cast their votes for Theodore Roosevelt for president of the United States. Auditor-Gen. Wants Changes In State LaNA^s. Auditor- General O. B. Fuller .has sent to the legislature several suggestions and recommendations as to what he thinks are good changes to be made in several of the laws now on the statute books. He also recommends the repeal of some laws. Rolled 30 feet along the track, Oscar Ehrman, aged 5, barely escaped death under a street car in Kalamazoo. Work of raising the $280,000 bonus fund for the Muskegon & Manistee interurban railroad is now under way, with a total of $7,500 contributed in three days' soliciting in three townships along the route. The township of Laketon raised more than $1,000, Whitehall $1,600, and Hart $4,000. The Lake*^arrIers, association club house in Port Huron, has been completed. The structure is one* of the finest of the kind on the great lakes. The association membership consists of masters, first and second mates and enginers on great lakes vessels. No Inaugural Ball for Wilson. "There will be no inaugural ball," declared William C. Eustic, chairman of the inaugural committee, after an informal conference with several members over President-elect Wilson's letter requesting that the committee consider thV feasibility of omitting the function. "The wishes of President-elect Wilson will be complied with," said Mr. Eustis. "The committee will take official action later." Gov. Wilson pointed out that use of the pension office building, where the inaugural balls have been held for generations, would mean a costly stoppage of government work. The suggestion was made that, instead of a ball, President and Mrs. Wilson receive at a formal reception, to be held in the rotunda of the capitol. Prosperity Greatest Ever, Prosperity never before equaled in the-history of the country marked the manufacturing industries of the United States during the calendar year of 1912, according to a statement issued by the federal bureau of foreign and domestic commerce in Washington. The bureau's statisticians based their declarations on the importations of material used in manufacturing-and 6n the movement of domestic materials from the points of production to the factories. The Northern-Gas Oil-Go<«~own*4-Newaging and operating the newly struck oil field at Allegan, has increased its capital from $20,000 to $50,000. In the recount in Saginaw, Senator Weadock in 37 out of 47 wards and townships had gained three votes. His majority is now 15. T H E B A R O M E T E R OF T H E P O S T O F F I C E , T H E R E A D I N G OF W H I C H S H O W S W E S T E R N C A N A D A ' S G R O W T H . Several of Western Canada newspapers coming to hand during the last part of the year 1912 contained items of news such as the following, speaking of the Christmas work in th«^ postoffice! "Other years haveN been heavy and the employees have hbd plenty of opportunity of learning what it was to work overtime, but the past has had nothing equal to the present. Forty extra men have been employed (in Winnipeg), and mail trains have been run special. The increase in the mail this year has been due to the enormous influx of people into Western Canada during the season, and also the general prosperity which the prairie provinces have enjoyed. To the latter cause has been due the heavy increase in the number of parcels which have been shipped to the old country and Eastern Canada." The above extract taken from a Winnipeg paper gives a fair idea of the great work that the Canadian postoffices have had all through the western prairies. During the past year hundreds of new postoffices were established, many of them at remote points from the railway, but all forced upon the country on account of the new settlements that have taken place during the year. It is said of the Canadian government that in its immigration and settlement policy there is nothing left undone to take care of the people and their welfare, whether it be in the new town along a new line of railway or in the remotest hamlet. This solicitude and care are not confined to the postoffice, but with every branch that has to do with organizing new districts. Bridges have been built, roads constructed, the district policed, and a dozen other things have to be done and are done. Is it any wonder that with the splendid land, the high yielding land, the land that is free to the homesteader or open to purchase at reasonable prices from the railway and land companies, that the Canadian immigration records for 1912 will show arrivals of upwards of 400,000, one-half of this being from the United States. The new literature being sent out by the immigration branch at Ottawa, and its agencies throughout the United States deals with many of the new and interesiingfeatures that will mark the work of that branch for tho year 1913.—Advertisement. UNKIND INFERENCE. "My husband and I never quarrel "Where does he live? In Europe?" Touching the Cardinal. At the Democratic convention in Baltimore last summer two of the sergeants- at-arms were Ohioans, Col. John Bolan of Toledo and Capt. Joseph Dowling of Dayton. Bolan is the wit who laid down the maxim that "anny man who parts his hair in the middle is no Dimmycrat." When Cardinal Gibbons had finished the opening prayer, he descended from the rostrum and made his way toward the door. As he neared the exit where the two Ohioans were on guard, Bolan whispered: "Joe, touch him whin he passes ye." "All right, colonel," replied Dowling, with an inocent air.

Leaving trie ear, she goes into the park to read tno will of an old friend of her niother, Who has left her property. There she is accosted by a stranger, who foUow'3 her jo the auto, climbs in and chloroforms •«er. James Hambleton of Lynn, Mass., witnesses the abduction of Agatha Redmond. Hambleton sees Agatha forcibly taken aboard a yacht. He secures a tug and whtin near the vacht drops overboard, Aleck Van Cafnp, friend of Hamuieton, had an appointment with him. Not rneeting Hambleton, he makes a call upon mends. Madame and Miss Melanie Key- ™er He proposes to the latter and is refused. Melanie explains that, she is of high birth in a German principality, from Which she had fled to escape an unwished marriage. The three arrange a c§ast trip on Van Camp's yacht, the Sea Gull. Hambleton wakes up on board the Jeenne D'Are, the yacht on which is Agatha Redmond. His clothes and money belt nave been taken from him. He meets a man who introduces himself as Monsieur Chatelard, who is Agatha's abductor. They fight, but are interrupted by the threatened sinking of the vessel. C H A P T E R VII.—Continued. There followed hours of superhuman struggle toa save the Jeanne D'Arc. Her crew, sufficient in ordinary weather, was too small to cope with the storm,..and the leaking ship. Ballast had to be shifted or flung overboard. Repairs had to be worked incessantly. It transpired that the yacht had gone far out of her course during the fog the night before, and had tried to turn inshore, even before the leak was discovered. No one knew what waters they were that lashed so furiously about the disabled craft. The storm overhead had abated, but the rage of the sea was unquelled. Before long the engine was stopped by the rising water, and then the hand pumps were used. There was some hope that the leak had been discovered and at least partly repaired. The captain thought that, if carefully managed, the yacht might hold till daylight. Jimmy joined the gang and worked like a trojan, helping wherever a man was needed, shifting ballast, untackling the boats, handling thgfpump. It was at the pump that he found himself some time during the. night, working endlessly, it seemed. Not once had he lost sight of the real purpose of his presence on the yacht. If Agatha Redmond were aboard the unlucky vessel —and he had moments of curious perplexity about it—he was there to watch for her safety. He pictured her sitting somewhere in the endangered vessel. She could not but be terrified at her predicament. Whether shipwreck or abduction threatened her, she must feel that she had indeed fallen into the hands of her enemies. He worked his turn at the pump, then made up his mind to risk no further delay, but to search the ship's cabins. She was in one of them, he believed; frightened she must be, possibly i l l . He had done all that the furthest stretch of duty could demand in assistance to the ship. He^would find Agatha Redmond at any cost, if she were aboard the Jeanne D'Arc. Again he thought to himself that he was glad he was there. Whatever purpose her enemies had, he alone was on her side, he alone could do something to save her. It was now long past midnight, but not pitch dark either on deck or on the sea. The electric lights had gone out long before, but lanterns had been swung here and there from the deck fixtures. As Jimmy came up, he thought the men were preparing to lower the boats, but when he asked about it in his difficult French, the sailor shook his head. There were more people about than he supposed the yacht carried ; several 'seamen, three or four other ' men, and a fat woman sitting apathetically on a pile of rope. He, went from group to group, and from end to end of the yacht, looking for one , woman's face and figure. He saw Monsieur Chatelard, examining one of -the boats. He ran down the saloon stairway, determined to search the cabins before he gave up his quest. One! moment he prayed that the. words of Chatelard might be true, and that she had never been aboard the yacht; the next moment he prayed^he might find her behind the next closed door. As James* searched below deck, a house palatial disclosed itself, oven in the dim light of the little lanterns. Cabins roomy and comfortable, furnishings of exquisite taste, all the paraphernalia of the cultured and the rlch^were^here. Some of the cabin doors were standing open, and none was locked. Jimmy beat on them> called from room to room, finding nothing. Every human occupant was gone. Sick at heart, he again rushed on deck. Was he mistaken after all? Or had they hidden her in some secret part of the thlp where he could not find her? When Jimmy got back to the deck V he saw that the groups had gathered on the pert side. Sharp orders were being given. He crowded to the railing, straining his eyes to see, and found that they were transferring the ship's company to the boats. A rope ladder swung from the deck to a boat beneath, which bobbed like a cork beside the big, plunging yacht. Two people were in the boat, a sailor standing at the bow, and a large muffled figure of a woman sitting in the stern. Jimmy at once knew her to be the apathetic fat woman he had seen a few minutes before on deck. His eye searched the company crowded about the top of the rope ladder, and suddenly his heart leaped. There she w;as, at the edge of the deck, waiting for the captain to give the word for her to descend to the boat below. As Jimmy's eyes grew accustomed to the darkness, he saw her more and more plainly, a pale face framed in a dark hood, a tall, cloaked figure waiting calmly to obey the word from the superior officer. ' It was the third time Jimmy had seen her, but he felt as if he had found one dearer than himself. His eyes dwelt on her. She was not terrified; her nerves were not shaken. "I am ready," she said, turning to the captain. It was the same fine, free voice, suggesting—Oh, what did it not suggest! Never this dark, wild night of danger! Jimmy thrilled to it again as ixe had thrilled to it once before. He waved jubilant hands. "Agatha Redmond!" he called, across the space and heads that divided them. Whether she heard his call he did not know. At that moment the word was given, and she turned an almost smiling face to the captain in reply. She knelt to the deck and got footing on the Blippery rope. Men above held it and helped as best they could, while the sailor below waited to receive her into the little boat. She was steady and quick as a woman in such a perilous position could be. As she descended, the row boat, insecurely held to the Jeanne D'Arc, did sternward a few feet; and while she waited in midair for the boat to be brought up again, the Jeanne D'Arc gave a mighty plunge. The captain shouted from the deck, a sailor yelled, then another; the dipping sea tossed the yacht so that for an instant the boat below and the woman on the ladder were hidden from-Jim's view. He climbed over the rail and edged along the narrow margin of the deck until he was a few feet nearer the rope, his heart thumping with fear of calamity. \ And even as the thought came, the thing happened. The wrenching of the ropes, insecurity of their fastenings, some blunder on the part of the seamen—whatever it was, the rope loosened like a filament of gauze, and, with its precious burden, dropped into the angry water. Before a breath could be drawn, the black waves churned over her head. As, for the second time, Jim saw disaster engulf the Vision that had such power over him, he was seized by a cold numbness. "Oh, you brutes!" he groaned aloud; but his groan had scarcely escaped him when he heard loud altercation among the men, and in a moment, , the usual tones of Monsieur Chatelard commanding: "Never mind! Quick with the boat on the other side!" The seamen rushed to the opposite side, now -impatient to make the boats. In the fear that was growing momently upon the men, there was no one to give a thought to the vanished woman. Jimmy clung to the rail for a second, peering over the water. With a cry ot gladness he saw her pale face rise to the surface of the water several feet away and toward the bow. """'"keep up a second! It's all right!" he shouted. Quick as- thought .he snatched a life preserver from its place on the rail, and ran forward. He called thrice, "Keep up, I'm coming!" then threw the cork swiftly and accurately to the very spot where she floated, A. watched, to see if she gained it. It seemed that she did, and yet something was wrong. She was not able to right herself immediately in the "Thank save you God!" yet!" he breathed. "I'll C H A P T E R VIII. "Surely they do not me-aa H; they must return, for you, at least." The girl beside hiin knew batter, but she was conscious of the paralyzing despair of her.companion's heart, and made a show of being cheerful. "When they rind they are safe they may think of us," she said. "But the men were already crazed with fear, even before the leak was discovered. One of their mates on the voyage over was a fortune-teller, and he. prophesied danger to them all on their next trip. After they had come into port, the fortune-teller himself died. And who can blame them for their fear? They are all superstitious; and as no one ever regarded their fears, now they have no regard for anybody's feelings but their own." "But we are in the middle of the Atlantic, no one knows where. We may drift for days—we may starve— the Lord only knows what will happen to us!" Agatha, who had been floating, swam a little nearer and laid her hand on Jim's shoulder, until he looked into her face. It was full of strength and brightness. 44 'The sea is His also,'" she quoted gently. "Besides, we may get picked up," she went on. "I'm very well off for my part, as you see. Can swim or rest floating, thanks to this blessed cork thing, and not at all hurt by tire fall from the rope. But I must get rid of my shoes and some „of my clothes, if J have to swim." . It is awkward to kick off one's shoes and divest oneself of unnecessary clothing in the water, and Agatha laughed at herself as she did it. "Not exactly a bathing suit, but this one black skirt will have to do. The other* must go. It was my skirts that "caused the mischief with the rope at first. And I was scared!" "You had a right to be." Jim helped her keep afloat, and presently he saw that, Treed from-the entanglement of so many clothes, . sh£ was as much at homo in the water as. he. Suddenly she turned to him, caught' by some recollection that almost eluded her. "I don't think wo are anywhere near the middle of the Atlantic," she said thoughtfully. James was silent, eating the bitter bread of despair, in spite of the woman's brave wish to comfort him. They were swimming slcwiy as they talked, still hoping to rench the yacht. They rose on tho breast of tho waves, paused now and then till a quieter moment came, and always kept near each other.in the pale blue darkness. "Old Sophie said something—that tampered with the At any-rlite. she said fap^ironi shore with On the Breast of the Sea. "Can you keep afloat in this roughness?" "I think so, now that I have the life preserver. But the rope scared me for a minute. It got wound about my feet." "I thought so. But we are drifting away from the boats, and should swim back as fast as we can. Can you swim?" "Yes; better when I get rid of this cloak. Which way is the yacht? I've lost my bearings." "Behind us over there. Put your hand on my shoulder and I'll take you along until you get your breath. So!" Tho girl obeyed" implicitly, "as if she were a good, biddable child," thought Jim. There was none of the terrified clutching at a rescuer which sometimes causes disaster to two instead of one. Miss Redmond was badly shocked, it may be; but she was far froni being in a panic. "Now for the boat. Can you swim a little faster?^ They'll surely come back to pick us up," said Jim, with an assumption of confidence that he did not feel. They could hear voices from the yacht, and could follow, partially, what w:as going on. Miss Redmond cast loose her cloak, put a hand on Jim's shoulder, and together they fiwara nearer. "Ahoy!" shouted Jim. "Give us a hand!" But the boat with the large woman in it had put about to the other side of the yacht. "Ahoy! This way!" shouted Jim. "Throw us a rope!" he cried; Wfl if any of the seamen of the Jeanne D'Arc heard, they paid no heed. "Come this way," said Jim to his companion. "We'll catch them on the other side of the yacht." "I can't swim much in all these clothes," said Agatha. "Never mind, then. Hold on to the life preserver and to me, and we'll make it all right." On the crests of the swelling waves they swam round the dark hulk of the vessel, and heard plainly the clamor of the men as they embarked in the small boats. Two of them seemed to be fastened together,- raftlike, on the starboard side of the yacht, and were quickly filled with men. Prayers and curses were audible, with the loose, wild inflexion of the man who is in the clutch, of an overmastering fear. As long as there had been work for them to do on the ship, they had dc^ie it, though sullenly; they had even controlled themselves until the attempt was made to place the two women in safety. But after that their selfrestraint vanished. The orders of the officers were unheeded; the men leaped and scrambled and slid into the boats, and in a minute more they had cut loose from the Jeanne D'Arc. James dimly perceived that the boats were moving away from them into the darkness. JThen he called, and called again, redoubling his speed in swimming; but only the beat of the oars came back over the water. The heart in him stood still with an unacknowledged fear. Was it "possible they were absolutely leaving them behind? Surely there were other boata. pretty bad." He raised his Voice and called agalhs[ "It was," she said simply, and again. A t last one voice, careless and brutal, called back something in reply. Jim turned questioning eyes to the girl beside him, whose pale face was discernible on the dark wa ter. "He says the boats are all full/ "Then we must hurry and mlttre for the yacht. Where is she?" The Jeanne D'Arc had slipped away from them into the darkness. "She was this way, I thought. Yes, IA&I sure," said Agatha, pointing into the night. But though they swam that way, they did not come upon her. They turned a little, and then turned again, and presently they lost every sense of direction. In all his life Jim was never again econd—longer—ho+destined~to- go—through so-black an h6ur as that which followed the abandonment of the Jeanne D'Arc. His courage left him, and his spirit sanX to that^leaden, choking abyss where lights /did not exist. Since ther Immediate object of saving the ship, for which he had worked^as hard as any other, had been given u i y i h e next in importance was to save the woman who, for some mysterious reason, had been aboard. It wae beyond his power of imagination/to suppose that any other motive o f action could posslb prevail, evenf among her enetfffes. That thpv^hquM leave her to-drown. while they themselves fled jto comparative safety in a boat, was more some one had wheel, I think, we'd never get this crew." James considered the case. "But even ^suppose we are within a mile or two, say, of the shore, could you ever swim two miles in this heavy sea?" "It is growing calmer every minute. See, I can do very well, even swimming alone. It must be near morning, too,, and' that's always a good thing." There was the shadow of a laugh in her voice. "Morning? That depends," growled Jim. He 'wa- being soothed in spite of himself, and in spite of the direfulnes of their situation. But bad as the situation was, and would be in any case, he could not <Jeny the proposition that morning and daylight would make it better. "But aren't you tired already? You must be." James turned closer to her, trying to read her face. "It was a long night of anxiety, even before we J»ft the boat. Weren't you ftightened?" "Yes, of course; but I've been getting used to frights of late, if one can get used to them." Again there was the laugh in 'her voice, under all its seriousness, even when she added: "I'm not sure that this isn't safer than being on board the Jeapne D'Arc, after a l l ! " It was characteristic of James that he forbode to take advantage of the opening this speech offered. The possible reason of her abduction, her treatment on board the yacht, her relation ' to Monsieur Chatelard—it was all a mystery, but he could not, at that moment, seek to solve it. Her remark remained unanswered for- a little time; at last he said; "Then the Jeanne D'Arc must have been while. death means? tomorrow. saylNl prokeep afloat?" she ning surge of the .waters, all,was silence. The pale forerunners of dawn had Appeared. Their swim after the boats of the Jeanne D'Arc had warmed their blood, so that for a while they were not conscious ot the chill of the water. But as the minutes lengthened, one by one, fatigue and cold numbed their bodies. It waa a test"Of endurance for a strong man; as for the girl, Jim wondered at her strength and courage. She swam superbly, wtih unhurried, steady strokes. If she grew chatteringly cold, she would start into a vigorous swim, shoulder to shoulder with James. If she lost her breath with the hard exercise, she would take his hand, "so as not to lose you," she would say, and rest on the breast of the waves.- The wind dropped and the sea grew quiet, so that they were no more cruelly buffeted, but rocked up and down on its heaving bosom. Once, while they were "resting" on the water, Agatha broke a long silence with, "I wonder—" but did not at once say what she wondered at. Jim said nothing, but she knew he was waiting and listening. "Suppose this should be the Great Gateway," she said at last, ve»y lowly, but quite cheerfully and natlrally/ "1 am wondering what there is bey oiid." "I've often wondered, too," said Jim. "I've sometimes thought, and I've said it, too, that I was crazy to die just to see what happens," Agatha 'wont on, laughing a little at her own memories.. "But I find I'm not at all eager for it, now, when it would be so easy to go under and not come up again. Are you?" "No, I've never felt eager to die; least of all, now." Agatha was silent a "What do you think Shall we be we vided we can't asked by and by. "Why, yes, I think so," said Jim "I don't know why or how, but 1 guess wo "go on'somewhere; and I rather think our best moments here—our moments of happiness or heroism, if we ever have any—are going to be the regular' thing." Jim laughed a little, partly at his own lame ending, and partly because ho felt Agatha's hand closing more tightly over his. He didn't want her to get blue just yet, after her brave figrft. But Agatha wasn't blue. She answered thoughtfully: "That isn't a bad idea." and then*cheerfully turned to a consideration of the possibilities of a rescue at dawn. Jame°s had evolved a plan to wait till enough nght came to enable tl^em to reach the Jeanne D'Arc, if she was still 1»float; then to climb aboard and hunt for provisions and life preservers or something to ,uso for a raft. If he could do this, then they would be "in a somewhat better plight, at least for a time. Ho prayed that the Jeanne D'Arc might still be afloat. The two talked little, leaving silences between them full of wonder. The details of life, the ordinary personalities, were blotted out. Without explanation or speech of any kind, they understood each other. They were not, in this hour, members of a complex and artificial society; they were not even man and woman"; they were two souls stripped of everything but the need for fortitude and sweetness, At last came the dawn. Slowly the blue curtain'of night lifted, lifted, until-'ft became the blue curtain of sky, endlessly far away and far above. A twinkling star looked down on the cup of ocean, glimmered a moment and was gone. The light strengthened. A pearly, iridescent quiver cane upon the waters, repeating itself wave after wave, and heralded the corning of the Lord Sun over the great murmuring sea. As the flight grow, they could see a constantly widening circle of ocean, of which they were the center. As they rose and fell with the waves, the horizon fell and rose to their vision, dim and undefined. Hand in hand they floated in vaporous silver. "The day has come at last, thank God!" breathed James. "Yea, thank God!" answered the girl. "Are you very cold?" "The sun will soon warm us." "Where did you learn to swim?" "In England, mostly at the Isle ofs Wight, but I'm not half such a dolphin as you are." "Oh, well, boys have to swim, you know, and I was a poy once," Jim answered awkwardly.

The main eve trouble from which children suffer is near-sightedness. T h e near-sighted child is generally at a disadvantage from the start of not being, known to he so. The child, therefore, suffers from the jeers of schoolmates and chiding by his teachers for not reading sums readily) or correctly from the blackboard.

In childhood the eves should be watched and tbe tendency to near ftightedness' or other defects be promptly and skillfully attended to.

There should be neither utudy nor reading except by a good light, no reading in cars or other vehicles and the sense of strain or fatigue should be relieved by rest or change of work. Growing children should, as a rule, do no evening studying.

LEWIS, General Secretary of the Prison Association of New York. NEW YORK.—Suppose you were governor. You are not a believer in capital punishment, but the people of your state have voted that they want capital punishment. Four murderers are awaiting death at the Btate penitentiary. Would you commute their sentences to life imprisonment? Four men had been reprieved by Governor West of Oregon until the state could vote on the specific question of the abolition of capital punishment. When the "No" ballot outnumbered the "Yes" ballots by 20.000, the governor refused to commute the sentences. On the night before the execution, far on the Pacific coast, all night meetings were held to protest against the murder" of the four Oregon murderers. A l l over the country people waited with deep concern for the governor's decision. Now, Governor West is only one of many chief executives of our states who believe that the ancient doctrine of an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth is barbarous, me a personal letter Dix, dated December writes: "1 am opposed to ment. It is one of the remnants of the Biblical injunction. 'A life for a life, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, arid a hand for a hand.' We have done away with all of these except the 'life for a life,' and believe that society through the process of law should take a life for a life. To my mind the real punishment will come If the capital cases are segregated in a prison by themselves, cut off from the rest of the world, and upon conviction no interference with that sentence shall prevail." Trying Time for Governor. It is generally known that the days immediately preceding an execution are harrowing days for the conscientious governor. The last futile visits of the relatives to the only person In the world that can"save the life of the condemned, the persistent questic:. as to even the bare possibility of.innocence, the grave doubt as to whether the state should take life, the dreacj that the execution may fail to Hill speedily; In short, all the horrible de* tails of the deliberate killing of a being that the religions of civilized nations maintain is inhabited by an mmortal soul—all these things press ffpon him. "Why should I be forced to everelse the prerogative of almighty God?" asks the chief executive. I recently made an exhaustive canvass by letter of the chief executives of the states, the leading wardens and superintendents of correctional institutions and distinguished crim'i nologists as to their attitude upon the death sentence and Its execution, I wish to present some of the striking answers to that canvass today to the readers of the Sun, for to the citizens of this state will be surely brought, either during the legislative session of 1913 or soon after, the definite question "Shall capital punishment be abolished in the state of New York?" First, then, how do some of our governors feel? Gov. Marshall of Indiana writes: "I am in favor of the abolition of capital punishment." Gov. Cruce of Oklahoma is opposed to capital punishment for all crimes except criminal assaults on women. "Legal executions," he says, "are absolutely indefensible from the standpoint of Christianity and modern higher civilization. The time will come when legal murders will be as unpopular as midnight assassinations." Gov. Pothier of Rhode Island writes that capital punishment was abolished in that state forty years ago. and he is not in favor of its re-establishment. Gov. Burke of North Dakota is opposed to capital punishment, but is not sure that we have arrived at the stage of civilization when we can dispense with It altogether. Hadley for Capital Punishment. On the other hand. Gov. Hadley of Missouri say8 that he does not advocate the abolition of capital punishment. "I believe." says the governor, "our Missouri system is the best, which gives to the jury passing upon the question of guilt the right to fix the punishment at death or imprisonment In the penitentiary for life." And Gov. Baldwin of Connecticut, who personifies the judicial humane severity of attitude toward the criminal class. 1« firmly of the opinion that capital punishment should not be abolished. He writes as follows: l A s you are doubtless aware, it has been abolished in some states in for mer years where it was found necessary quite soon to reinstate "it in or der to check the spread of crime. Life imprisonment under modern con ditions in, respect of the pardoning powjeVlmd credit, for proper behavior is not life imprisonment and is not dreaded as such. Such crimes as murder and rape should be mad<> dreadful, then they will be dreaded and avoided." Gov. Mann of Virginia finds the death penalty in accordance with Scripture, ind finds no movement for its aboliion in that, state. Gov. Gilchrist of Florida. Gov. Cary of Wyoming. Gov.* ia; of Washington and Gov Osborne O N E 0 L 0 S O L D I E R R E M A I N S Governor Dix, Who Favor* the Abolition of Capital Punishment. of Michigan are other executives opposed to the abolition of capital punishment. Now where shall we stand on this question? Let us go first for the answer to those men who have dealt with prison populations, men in the service of the state and recognized by the American Prison association are just and progressive. First, as to those who believe in capital punishment, WTard^n Sale of the state prison of North Carolina writes as follows: "Persons of criminal tendency, and who would not hesitate to commit high crime, would be less deterred from doing bo if they knew that they would only receive a 3. Too many chances exist of the murderer's freedom through physical escape, favoritism, parole or pardon. 4. Capital punishment should be reserved at least for the most brutal murders. 5. There is no other adequate penalty. Against the Death Penalty. Let us now turn to the arguments against the death penalty. Two prominent men in the field of penology and criminology have presented their arguments systematically. First. Warden Wolfepvfor many years head of the Minnesota State penitentiary, writes: "I am and always have been opa e me. life sentence.- L-beileve- that to abol- ' posed-1*) xrapital punish ment for- Jthe ish capital punishment would tend to I following reasons: "1. Because T ¢0 not believe that capital punishment is Jn harmony with and abreast of the best thought of modern civilization. "2 Because it seems wrong for the state in every sense to take what it cannot give. "3. Because human life is the prerogative of Divine Providence. God alone can give it and he alone in his divine wisdom has the right to take it away. "4. Because 1 hat capital :ed of Severity. "The individual who would stealinto the home at midnight or entice the innocent into dens of vice and destroy that which he cant give is unfit to live in any community and should therefore pay the penalty by forfeiting his life. The murderous, dangerous criminal who after his commitment to the prison becomes sullen and morose, refuses to obey rules and regulations and upon whom punishment has to be meted out in order to secure f from him a partial obedience to the \ rules grows under these circumstances | worse, becomes desperate and would take any chance to effect his escape, even if it were necessary secretly to take the life of his keeper, for he knows that there ie no greater punishment than the life sentence, and hence would not mind commiting any crime that would secure to him liberty or revenge for an imaginary worng. Not only would the lives of keepers be endangered but those of inmates as well." Some of the many prison officials who fear the evil effects of the abolition of capital punismment write thus: Fesars Increase of Lynchlngs. M. L. Brown, warden of the West Virginia penitentiary: "Human life would be rendered less secure, and lynchings would increase." Otis Fuller, superintendent of the Michigan reformatory: "1 favor capital punishment in extreme cases, especially where murder was committed in attempting highway robbery, burglary, safeblowing, rape and such crimes as that, but I would leave0 to the majority , vote of the jury the infliction of the extreme penalty. There have been many brutal murders in Michigan in the last ten years where it appeared to me that capital punishment was the only legitimate penalty. These murderers may'escape and may subsequently be pardoned or paroled, and again become menaces to the same society they have outraged." Governor Dix haB recommended the same punishment i i * lieu of death. Zebulon R. Brockway, for a score of years the head of the Elmira Reformatory, is quoted as having recently said: "I believe that there BhoulJ be a larg*r~ftentrally located Federal prison/ or Wprison under Fe&eral control, i n ' wtrflh all life prisoners erf the United ^States should be incarcerated. T believe that the laws should be so framed that the civic life of a murderer could be terminated. This should be accomplished by obliterating their identity. They should be known only by numbers. They should be kept in ignorance of the outside world. They should be allowed to see no visitors'and. none save Federal inspectors should be allowed to see them. It should not be known when they die " What then. in.summing up the arguments so far, have been the main points raised in favor of capital punishment? Seemingly the following: 1. Death is a greater deterrent than the fear of imprisonment. v 2. Our civilization, has not progressed to the point where we can most severe penalty. statistic? do not show punishment prevents homicides. "!). because the whole scheme of punishment should carry with It a chance for repentance and reform, whether the offender is ever released from prison or not." .The leading criminologist in this country is probably Prof. Charles R Henderson of the University of Chi cago. He is the American representative on tfie International Prison Commission, composed of representatives of all civilized nations. Dr. Henderson puts his reasons thus: "I am opposed to capital punishment, because: 1. It too often serves- revenge. 2. Not needed for the protection of society. 3. Occasionally is inflicted the guiltless. 4. Is irreparable. 5. Tends to increase brutality and murder. G. Diverts attention from preventive policies." W7hich brings us to the question, is the murderer the chief factor to consider? In the protection of society from crime, is the example of the punished murderer of greater value as, a deterrent than the possible reformation of the individual. Hanging Not a Deterrent. I have a letter from Warden Hoyle of San Quentin prison. California, written recently, in which he says: 'I think it is generally believed that the death penalty has not materially lessened the number of murders committed in this state." In conclusion I would list the states which on my recent canvass I found were without the death penalty: Kansas, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Wisconsin. From the following states were received reports of agitation toward the abolition of capital punishment: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Indiana, Massachusetts, Ohio, Oregon, Washington. Where capital punishment has been abolished the general disposition seems to be not to restore it. Where it still exists many states seem well satisfied; many others restless. The great public of the state of New York is the Jury. What shall the verdict.be? Execution? Perpetual imprisonment? Imprisonment^ with some hope of pardon or parole? Colonel John Lincoln Clem, Who En listed at Age of Ten Years, .Still in Service. *> (By DR. A XDERS DO E.I More than 1,500,000 re en took part, oft the side of the north in the great' American Civil war from 1861 to- 1865. They are all now out of activeservice, having fallen before the age limit. One only is left, and that one is Col. John Lincoln Clem, first quartermaster of the central division of the United States army, with headquarters at Chicago. The American Civil, war has been called a "boy-war," on account of the extraordinary number of youths, ranging In ages from fourteen Ho twenty years, that had joined the army. Of all these "Johnny" Clem was the youngest. He was ten years old when he left his home in Newark, 0., and presented himself for feervice as a drummer boy. He was so little tbat he was chased away, and was given a box on the ear when he came back home. But Johnny would not stay away. He always came back, and in the bloody battle of Sbllob we find him as drummer boy at the front of the regiment — the Twenty-second Michigan. \ Then toojc place the battle of Chickamauga, one of the bloodiest battles of history. It was here that tbe Norweigian regiment, the Fifteenth Wisconsin, of which all Norwegians in America are proud, was almost completely annihilated, and its leader, Col. Hans Heg£ (born in Lier. Norwayl. found 'a hero's death. On the day following he was to have been promoted to the post of brigadier general. Here-Johnny Clem was at the fronts as usual, and got the name, "the Drummer Boy of Chickaraauga," a name by which he is known up to the present day. A shell struck the drum from his hands, shattering it, kind Johnny Bat down and cried. But te could not long sit quiet, while ihe battle was going on-all around him, so he took, ^a—gun from a ~de~atT "soldier aJi(L,co.ni=__ menced firing. On came the Confederates storming, and when they saw Johnny Clem with the gun they burst out laughing, but .lohnny took aim and1 killed the leader. They took Johnny Clem and gave him a spanking, put him on horseback and rode off with him. Like a prairie fire the news spread that Johnny was captured, and the whole regiment started in pursuit, soon coming back carrying Johnny with" them in triumph. The battle was won, and when the troops were inspected, the general called Johnny and asked him what had become of his drum. Johnny told him it had been struck by a shell. "Johnny." said the general, 'any one who cannot take care of his drum cannot be a drummer any longer." Johnny cried. "But," added the general, "from now on you will be sergeant with the regiment." 4 Jqhnny went through the whole war and the day peace was concluded he looked upon as a dreary day. He was a "veteran" with medals and honorary diplomas when he was fourteen years old. I visited Colonel Clem at his office and presented myself as the correspondent of the Aftenposten (Christiania, Norway). The colonel is courteous and genial. He is broadshouldered and well proportioned, with a sprinkling of gray and a charming smile. "Yes, I am the last of the veterans." said he. "I am now sixty-one years old, and in three years I shall also fall before the age limit. • "Yes, I remember well Col. Hans Hegg. He was the leader of the Norwegians and their ideal. He was held in high' esteem and so was the Fifteenth Wisconsin. While only a boy at that time I remember it as if it was yesterday. They went into the battle as to a play, and Tery few came back. The Fifteenth Wisconsin marched in front, exposed to the? murderous fire, and thus bore the brunt of the battle." /t ^ I then asked if he would gjve me a message for the land of Colonel Hegg, whereupon he sat down and wrote the following greeting to Norway: * "It recalls to my memory the days of my youth when f think of the brave Norwegian, Hans Hegg of the 'Fifteenth ' Wlsconaftu regiment, and his honorable death at Chickamauga. He would no doubt have been promoted tbe day following if he had not found a hero's death.

T R U T H A B O U T T H E C A S E T h e Experiences o f M . F . Goron, $x~Chief of tbe P a r i s Detective Police » Edited by Albert Keyzer A D R A M A T I C H O L I D A Y (.Copyright by J. B. Uppineott Co.) •HILE I was chief of the detective police I remember to have taken but few holidays. Many a time had I packed my spending a week or a fortnight in a secluded Bpot among peaceable citizens, but somehow or other fate ordained that the train that was to carry me away should start, leaving me and my lug- , gage behind. "One of these days you will collapse/' my friends used to say, and, like all evil predictions, theirs came true. I had been ' fearfully busy. There had been an avalanche of crimes, and the strain had begun to tell on me, to an obligato accompaniment of headache, sleeplessness, and other unpleasant symptoms. With a mistaken sense of duty I tried to cling to my post, J>ut when I saw I had the medical faculty against me, I gave up the battle and promised to take a rest. The following day. as I was walking down the Rue de la Paix a voice like thunder called out my name. I did not see the man, but I knew that in the whole of Prance only one person possessed such an organ—my old friend Stanislas Tilon, a captain in the merchant, navy. Good old Stanislas, who stood six feet three, had not only a tremendous voice—everything with him was big. He seized both my hands in his lion grip, and, having knocked my stick out of my hand, and my hat off my head, he conducted, or rather dragged, me to the Cafe d© la Paix. "Fancy meeting you!" he roared. "I, came back on Tuesday last, and am off again the day after tomorrow. But what's the matter with you? You look out of sorts.'* 4 > the fact is," I said, *T am not very _ well, The _dnct<U3-#ajr^~-m ust ta ke A holiday." — Down came Stanislas' fist, upsetting all the dominoes on the table next to ours. "You want a thorough holiday? I'll give you one. , You may bless your etars you met me. We are running a regular line1 of steamers from Bor~ deaux to St. Louis, on the African coast, stopping at Madeira and Teneriffe. They are capital boats, carrying only a small number of passengers. 1 am in command of the Gambia, the most comfortable of the lot. You'll be my guest, and the sea will put you right in no time. We are going only as far as T-eneriffe, so that you will be back in three weeks. I'll give you one of the two deck cabins, and you'll be as happy there as a king. We have a splendid cook, and as nice a lot of passengers as yju'd wish to meet." Stanislas' proposition tempted me. My shaken nerves Clamored for a rest such as I knew I should find on the high seas! and, after a few objections, immediately overruled by my friend, 1 accepted his invitation. The following day at two in the afternoon I arrived at Bordeaux, and went straight on board. Stanislas welcomed me with unaffected joy, and after an excited and whispered discussion between him and the steward, the latter took my valise to the deck cabin on the starboard side. The rain was coming down in torrents as I descended, to the saloon to join my shipmates. Several persons were sitting at the long tables, some writing, others reading, and I noticed one, a pronounced German type—his name was Von Winter — drinking champagne and playing solitaire. Before the dinner hour had struck Stanislas had introduced me to everybody. Besides Von Winter there were M. Van Vloot, a rich wine importer, with an aquiline nose* and the shortest legs I have ever seen belonging to a man of his size, and his wife, a stout lady, afflicted with toothache; Mr. Aylmer Knowles, a Scotchman with an expressionless face, accompanied bis wife and daughter, the f l a t t e r an unusually pretty girl; Father IMlass, a priest; Monsieur Waskywicz, of no nationality, with comic eyes, fat cheeks, blue with the razor, who turned out to be a comedian; Dr. Lopez, tfn oculist; and Senor Gonzales, a South American Spaniard, a handsome, aristocratic looking man, whose temper seemed to be considerably ruffled. I guessed that our loquacious captain had been talking about me, for not 'only the passengers watched me with curiosity, but the crew stared at me open-mouthed; As there-was a piano in the saloon, and none in the smoking room, I decided to make the latter my headquarter^ "Hallo, old chap/roared Stanislas. "How do you like your hotel? When* do you want to sit at table? Near that pretty Scotch girl, I suppose." '•Since you ask me," I replied, "you can place me between the German and the lady with tbe toothache. Neither of them looks talkative, and that Jvst suits me." "Poor Goron," said Gmy friend, giving m e , a slap on the shoulder that sent my hook overboard, "wait a couple of days, and you'll see the good the breeze will do you. "It looks like clearing up," I remarked, for tbe rain had stopped. "Don't build on that, sonny. The gla^s has tumbled, and I expect after midnight we'll have a fine dance. They'll all be i n bed by that time, 1 hope." Stanislas had given me the seat of honor at the table, on his right, but he was too busy to put in an appearance. On my other side was Senor •Gonzales, still very upset, and growling to the steward something I could not hear about his cabin. * The German, who kept on drinking champagne, was the first to address me, with the question: "Do you play poker?" "I never gamble. Why do you ask?" "Because we might have a game in the smoking room tonight. I thought perhaps you'd like to join." "I will join you in a smoke," I said, "but not in the game. I never play." "I'm awfully fond of a spin at poker," put in M. Van Vloot, "and so is Becky, if her tooth does not worry her. How is your tooth, Becky?" "Thank you, Sol, I feel much better. I dare say a little game would just put me right. And I don't mind the smoke." * e Mr. Knowles, who had not opened his lipB at dinner, remarked in a rasping voice: " A sea trip without poker is like a dog without a tail. I'll play, too." "I'll also take a hand," said Mr. Lopez. "I gamble on principle," grunted the comedian; "it's the only principle 1 have,"..a joke which sent Mme. Van Vloot into a fit of imbecile laughter. As soon as dinner was over there was, a general rush for the smoking room, and in the saloon remained onjy the priest and Mrs. Knowles, dozing in their chairs; and Miss Knowles, a book on her lap, deep in thought, wit& a smile, on lifer pretty face. —For a lung time " i paced the decK" enjoying the fresh air and the stillness around me, and having wished Stanislas good night, I decided to turn in, when curiosity, prompted me to see how the gamblersr-were getting on. -Mme. Van Vloot was standing in the door of the smoking room, very much out of temper., "Don't you play?" I asked. . "I have played," she replied in a solemn tone, "and I have ..lost my money. And so has Sol, and so has that German gentleman, and so has Mr. Knowles, and so has the actor wi;h the funny name. We have all lost our money. Senor Gonzales has raked it all in. What luck that man has! 1 never saw anything like it." As I entered the room Gonzales pp.ssed me. i l e was tired, he said, and wanted to go to rest. I saw the other players looking at one another, and the atmosphere seemed charged with voiceless currents of thought. •"He cleared us out very nicely," at last remarked Mr. Knowles. "He did," repeated the others in chorus. "I'll tell you what I think—" began Van Vloot in an excited Hone. "You needn't express your thoughts,' cut in Mr. Knowles, "for we all think the same thing. As for me, I don't intend to play again with that gentleman; and I wish you all pleasant dreams." I was beginning to feel more contented. Our old steamer was not so black as she was painted, and beneath her somewhat fresh exterior she hid a few sterling qualities in the way of comfort. I lit another cigarette and resumed my walk. But a change had come over the weather. It was blowing very hard, and the waves rolled in mountains under a sky of lead. In less than a quarter of an hour a gale broke, and heavy seas swamped the deck. "You'd better turn in," said the first officer, "it will get worse during the night." I followed bis advice, although sleep was out of the question. The wind howled and the water crashed against the side of the steamer with a deafening noise. It was anything but soothing to the nerves. Toward five in the morning I dozed off, and may have slept for half an taffitf, when I was roughly shaken and some one called out my name. I felt the wind blow on me through the open door, and there stood Stanislas with the first officer behind him. "Come at once," shouted the captain, "we want you!" Having forced me Into my trousers and coat, he took me to the cabin on he-portnstde, facingraThe7 The storm had abated, but there was still a heavy sea, and Stanislas gripped my arm to steady me. The steward stood outside as if on guard. Stanislas pushed him aside, opened the door, and said: "Look at that!" I recoiled with horror. The cabin was bespattered with blood. "Great heavens! Whose berth Is this•?",! asked. "Gonzales'," replied Stanislas. "But where is he?" •"We can't find a trace of him..,.An hour ago the steward, fancying he heard him call, opened the door and nearly dropped with fright, l i e at once came to me, and, while I sent him to every cabin to account for the passengers, I mustered the crew. Only poor Gonzales is missing. Do you mind helping me in this business, Goron? I am so distressed 1 do not know what course to take?" " A H right, old chap," I said; "I did not come here to hunt criminals, but I will do what I can." I made a careful examination of everything in the cabin. Gonzales* watch was on a small shelf near the bed, on the top of some bank notes and gold—probably his winnings of the night before. A pocket book stuffed ^with notes was lying next to it, also his scarf, in which a valuable diamond pin was stuck. "Did Gonzales -not have a big gray ulster?" I asked. "Yes, he had," replied my friend, "and I do not see it here. "I'll have a search made for it; and if it is gone, it will be rather strange." "No, not so strange as you think," I said. "I fancy I can account for its absence." "What is it?" cried Stanislas excitedly. "What do you make oi it?" "You will know that in a moment. You must now take all the valuables and seal them up. In the meanwhile I will stay here and make a closer inspection." When everything had been removed from the cabin and the door locked, I said: "And now I want to, look at the crew." At my request every man stripped to the waist, but although I' carefully examined their arms and necks, I could not detect the slightest scratch or bruise of recent date. ."Nor, when I overhauled every article of clothing and linen they possesed, did I find any blood stains. At their own request I subjected the officers to thesame treatment I next questioned the of- When I came in I beheld a curious ] cabin, Stanislas expressed his oplnspectacle. Mme. V a n Vloot lay in a swoon on the sofa, and her husband was holding a smelling-bottle to her nose. A l l looked terror-stricken, ana they all sat apart eyeing one another with suspicion. Stanislas stood erect at the head of the fiible, and had just lett'TDff speaking. A ujlence fell upon the assembly when they saw me, and Mr. Knowles said: "M. Goron, the captain has told us of the awful catastrophe that happened in the night, and he has informed us you have kindly consented to give him the benefit of your experience to inatfrre into the matter be fore we reach Madeira. We are anxious to give you all the assistance we can." I then questioned them all in turn; but they knew nothing. With the exception of Von Winter none of the passengers had left their cabins during the night. As to the latter, he stated that a L J w o in the morning, feeling very hot, he had stood for a ! while on the stairs leading to the saloon, without having seen or heard anything suspicious. Half an hour later, as I went toward the smoking room, one of the sailors asked me to come to the captain's cabin. I found Lopez there. " M . Lopez," said Stanislas, "wishes to ask you something." " M . Goron," began Lopez, "did Von Winter mention to you a violent discussion he had with M. Gonzales after the game?" "No, he did not." "When I went to bed Von Winter was alone in the saloon reading. I was just beginning to undress when I heard- a noise of people quarreling. I opened my door, walked .toward the saloon, and saw Von Winter gesticulating, apparently in a great rage. I listened, but could not catch a word they said. It lasted only a minute or perron I with the that tracK Why do ion that the case against the German looked suspicious. "Do you mean to tell me seriously/' I asked, "that you suspect Von Winter?" "I say he was the first thought of in connection crime; and by following we might get the truth, you look so surprised?' "Because you make light of the most important feature of this cane. You may knock out of your head the idea that Von Winter played a part in that awful drama. J cannot prevent our passengers from finding him guilty, but, fortunately for himrthey cannot hang him. I have done some reconnoitering, and have come to a strange, yet conceivable conclusion. I think I have found my way to the mystery, but the key is missing." The steward, happening to come in, told us for the fifth time how, when at four that rooming he brought thecap- .tain his coffee, he fancied he heard some one call out, which caused him to look into Gonzales' cabin. A thought suddenly struck me. "Steward," said I, "I heard M. Gonzales whisper something to you about his cabin, and he seamed upset. What did he want of you?" The steward silently glanced at the captain. , "It is all right," said the latter to him; "you eah go on. 1 will explain the case to M. Goron." ''Goron," he stammered, "I am sorry you found that out The truth is I had a little trouble with Gonzales, and you were the innocent cause of it. A few months ago when Gonzales traveled with me on this steamer he bad the starboard cabin, and he booked it again this time. Yesterday afternoon I saw the glass fall rapidly, and not knowing, how long the bad weather might last,'I ordered the steward, "Yes, I suspected a certain p e r m , from the Tory start ,£ut It is getting late, and, for luany reasons, it would, be unwise for me to act tonight ,fsV morrow morni*^ j will bring tho C«t* prit before you "You don't flunk I'll let you sleep t » your cabin tonight!'' exclaimed Stan* islas. "You ii share mine." Knowing A would be useless to 'a*** gue with him, 1 pave in. BefoKe* retiring to rest I went to the saloon tc» see bow the passengers were getting on, and could hardly repress a sniilft. They had organized a kind of vigilance coruiLitfee and two of them watched in 1 urns, with special Injunctions to keep t i i eye on Von Win* ter, "And now/ ' l said to my friend tha next mornmg, "we will reconstruct; the drama and take action.

Nobody had seen or heard anything suspicious. "What do you make of it?" I asked Stanislas. "Some of the facts are plain enough. Gonzales' throat was cut with a sharp instrument—probably a razor. He was lying on his right side, with his face to the wall. There was no struggle. Had there been any in that narrow space, the objects lying about would have been disturbed." At that moment the steward came to tell us that the ulster had not been found." "I expected this," I said. "The murderer, to prevent himself being blood-stained, took the precaution of wrapping the body in the* ulster before pitching it overboard. The dark night, and the sea washing the deck during the gale helped him in his work." "Have you heard of the scene at JPokeiL last j ^ h t ^ " _ ^ y _ X r J ^ n d ^udden^ ly asked. , "I have. Did they play high?'" "Yes. Prom what I gathered, Von Winter and Lopez lost a big amount, and Waskywicz, the actor, also came off badly." "Do yon suspect Gonzales of not having played a fair game? They threw out' some unpleasant hints." "I have known Gonzales for two years. Once before I had him as a passenger, and this is the first time I heard of such a tjiing." "I will finish dressing," I'said; "and in the meantime' you can have a talk with the passengers. 1 dare say they all know by now what has .happened. I will join you in the saloon.", were bending5 walk e n g i n e e r away else, refer to so, -and I saw Gonzales shrugging his shoulders "Did you, or any one this to Von Winter?" "No. He is very reserved, in fart rather unsociable; and since he came I on board he has hardly conversed with any one." I went, in search of the German, and found him smoking his pipe right aft "You had.'M said, "a dispute with Gonzales last night. How is it you never mentioned this to me?" He turned red, bit his lip, and then said: "I ought to have told you, but I was ashamed to do so. I played like a fool, and lost a lot of money—more than T can afford. I then had an idea —and the others had It, too—that M. Gonzales had—well, not played a fair game. I was too annoyed to go to bed, and sat alone in the saloon reading, when he walked in. I am sorry to say my temper got the better of me, and I accused hJm of having cheated, whereupon he flew into-a fearful rage, called me a scoundrel, and said he would have the matter out with me this morning. You can imagine how I was shocked when I heard what had occurred. I suppose this story has by now gone the round of the steamer, and to juilge from the way my fellow passengers look at me, they have settled among themselves that it is I who murdered M. Gonzales.

"You double-banned idiot!" I phoutod. "Why did you conceal this from me?" "Goron—I say—" gasped Stanislas. "Great heavens!

O. PLTJMMER.) From early times there has been a belief that certain trees more than others are likely to be struck by lightning. The elder Pliny said: "Lightning never strikes the laurel." This tree was also called bay, and wreaths of its leaves were worn by ancient rulers both as a symbol of victory and a3 a protection from the lightning of the gods. Seneca and Plutarch held a similar belief, which may be traced down even to modern times, but the theory as now held includes a number of trees, different in various countries. This belief was so firmly established that such trees as the beech, locust, holly, olive, walnut, birch, elder, mistletoe and live-for-ever, supposed to be effective in warding off lightning, were placed near dwellings. To this day there are many who -sttH-Hmstst-trrat" the"" beech Is never struck, while in parts of the United States th© aspen is considered immune from lightning. On the other hand, it was believed that such trees as the oaks, particularly cerk oak, had a very bad reputition for attracting lightning, and this belief prevails even now. There is a proverb: "Avoid the oak, flee from the spruce, but seek the beech." And also: "Beware tho oak, it draws the stroke. Avoid the ash, it courts the flash. Creep under the thorn, 'twill save from harm." Natives of South Africa have said regarding the-mepane tree, which is often struck, "Lightning hates it;" but they say that the morala tree is never touched. The Portuguese share this belief. There was once a widespread belief in Europe that conifers were almost immune from lightning, but records Yellow Pine, Arizona, Completely Shattered by Lightning. made there showed that conifers rank third in liability to stroke. The persistent popular belief regarding immunity of some trees and liability of others have given rise to the following theories regarding trees most likely to be struck; 1. Tall trees: Because they reach high toward the electrically charged cloud, and therefore lessen the distance with the flash must traverse through the dielectric (air). Such trees are conceived to be a part of the earth, extending upward and inviting the stroke. 2. Trees with pointed crowns: Because they invite, to their one apex, ^ single full-pressure, flash. Trees with rounded crowns, favor the diffusion of the flash into a spray. - &r Trees with^olatecr4eavesi7^ecause static electricity jumps/ most easily to and from pointed terminals. 4. Trees with smooth/or shiny leaves: Because a smooth surface Invites flashes, while a hairy or woolly surface,«presenting ^multitude of fine points, favors diffrielon. 5. Trees wit^deeply grooved bark: Because barx deeply grooved longitudinally guides^he current to the groundV/and because the moist sapwoocLrs close to the surface in the bottoms of the Assures. . . % > / 6 . Tree$ isolated; Because they are the only marks for the flash and nre conductors. 7. Trees on high ground: Because they are nearest to the storm jeloud strata. 8. Trees on damp soil: Because the moisture makes a good contact between the tree and the earth. 0. Trees deeply rooted: Because the long roots give a better grounding and finish a more direct path to deeper and moister earth strata. 10. Trees with dead branches: Because they present alluring points. 11. Trees whose wood has high electric conductivity: Because the flash will select the path of least resistance. 12. Trees whose tissues are composed mostly of longitudinally arranged fibers and other elements: Because this arrangement would favor the transmission of the electric current. 1 X Trees TlchjjL starch: Because starches and sugars are better conductors than oils, resins and waxes. But .years'of careful study and experimenting show that any kind of tree is likely to be struck by lightning, v In tomperate climates thunderstorms, with lightning, occur most commonly during the summer usually in the afternoon. In the United States they are four or five times as frequent east of the Rocky mountains &3 west, omitting from consideration parts of Arizona and New Mexico. This is due, as explained later, to the generally mountainous condition of the west. Lightning is most frequent in Florida and Illinois. In Cuba severe thunderstorms are frequent, and trees are often struck and killed. The pine only is reported ignited. Lightning is extremely rare in Alaska, and no forest fires are known to have resulted from it. It does not follow that the trees most liable to ignition by lightning are the ones most responsible for forest fires. WhHle in general one species may be more inflammable than another, the degree of inflammability varies with the locality and season. The tree most often struck and ignited in the west is the western yellow pine, which grows in open, park-like stands, where tho fire hazard is small. A tree may be set on fire by lightning and burn for days without the flames spreading to other trees or to the ground, and if the latter be free from litter, as is often the case in western yellow pine forests, the chances of the fire spreading are small. It is probable that the majority of forest fires caused by lightning striking trees is due to the presence of dry duff, humus or litter at the base of the tree. Another possibility is that some forest fires are started by lightning striking the ground and igniting the soil cover.

Some years ago a then well-known writer condemned the use of oyster shell as a food for, furnishing lime so necessary in the construction of egg shell. His contention was that the oyster shell did not contribute lime sufficient for that purpose. However, the New York agricultural experiment station has vetoed that by proving that a pound of oyster shell con tarns sufficient lime to manufacture about seven dozens of eggs. The proper way to feed Oyster shel is to have a small box of ft within reach so the fowls may help them selves at will. Mixing it in the morning mash is risky, as there is a likelihood that the hens will consurm more .than is required, and in conse quence tho shells of the eggs woulc become too hard; Tho hens know best when their system demands more lime. It is a/very rare case when a hen gets too much If constantly within reach. Rich Y o u n g B a c h e l o r R e g a i n s H e a l t h and F i n d s a Wife at S t r a n g e R e s o r t . By W A L T E R JOSEPH D E L A N E Y . "Lungs inactive, heart insipid, brain torpid," reported Dr. Pftiletus Derringer, and he tapped his patient, Thomas Maltby, three times and made a mental note of a fifty dollar bill for his advice. "Humph L" observed the wealthy old bachelor—"generally lazy*, eh?" "Worse than laziness, my friend," responded the notable physician gravely. "Your late suppers, lack of exercise and indolent ways generally have stored your system with poisons." "Then get rid of them,** suggested Thomas. "Nothing but exercise will do that," was the serious response. "I do not wish to alarm you, Mr. Maltby, but if you want to shorten your life twenty years just keep on in the idle, useless career you are now living." Thomas Maltby's face shadowed a trifle. No one realized more fully than himself that his life was profitless and wasted. He was the bestnatured, best-hearted fellow in the world, but he had money and no definite aim in the world. A good many times of late his head had grown dizzy and there had been twinges of the gout. Then he had got so he could not go to sleep without the aid of a sedative. Functionally he was still all right, the doctor said, but his little ailments were warnings he must attend to. * "You speak of exercise, doctor," said Thomas. "What do you mean— golf, walking, baths, dieting?" "They all help, but you need additionally a spur, changed conditions. Get your mind clear as well as your body. See here, did you ever hear of Prof. Septimus Gregg and his great 'youthful reorganization' system?" "I never did," confessed Thomas. "Well, one month in his hands and you are pretty nearly born again. Then if you go back to your old ground. W£en he got hungry, he went arouqeVjQ tljjej kitchen aa4 was! given & greats slice of bread • and butter.; By nightfall he' had really got interested in games of marbles, and ran himself out of breath chasing a runaway kite. "It's great!" he chuckled, as he rolled onto the trundle bed that night, healthily tired out for the first time in ten years. Inside of a week Thomas Maltby had forgotten the club, late dinners and his automobile. The "boys" went fishing, swimming. They played one old cat, mumblety-peg, hi-spy. They got up big healthy appetites. , Thomas cherished two "mibs," a glass alley and a "falsie" agate with more pride that, he had a ¢1,000 profit on the stock exchange. "It's famous,'' he told an august comrade, an astronomical student, foi the time being a frisky, delighted lad. "No more dizzy spells; I can run like a whitehead and eat—why, that molasses cake and those flapjacks take me back 30 years and make life worth living." On one side of the resort was a high brick wall. Strolling near it one day Thomas caught a tennis ball, that came over its top. Therev were feminine cries of distress. Then a ladder top appeared. Peering over it was a fair, mischievous face, half hidden in a quaint childish sunbonnet. "Do you see the ball, Mattie?" asked a voice below. "Here, you, boy," called out the roguish Mattie to the 'astonished Thomas—"toss that lost ball over here, will you?" Then Thomas found out that the brick wall enclosed the domain of Mrs. Prof. Gregg, who superintended the "girls' department" of the juvenile rejuvenation system. He got to thinking constantly of Mattie. One day he climbed a tree to view over the fence half a dozen " l i t i s " attired in L E T GOOD* CHANC E GO B Y »_->. ^^^^^^^^ ^a^^mm^x^ Bluffcra Had Perfect Right to Be Mad, Considering the Extremely Unfortunate Circumstances. Bluffers bounced into the club, jammed his hat down on a table with a fierce, resounding bang, and flung himself into an easy chair. "What's wrong today, bluffers? You look bad." "I'll never forgive myself. I kicked a man out of my house last night!" "Humph! I've kicked out many a one. Young fellow, I suppose?" "No; past middle age:" "Well, these old codgers have no business to be coming round courting young girls. I would have kicked him out myself/' "Yes, but I have found out since that this man wasn't courting my daughter. He was after my motherin- law." E C Z E M A C A M E O N S C A L P Lebanon, O.—"My eczema started on my thigh with a small pimple. It also came on my scalp. It began to Itch and I began to scratch. For eighteen or twenty years I could not tell what I passed through with that awful itching. I would scratch until the blood would soak through my underwear, and I couldn't talk to my friends on the street but I would be digging and punching that spot, until I was very much ashamed. The itching was so intense I could not sleep after once in bed and Varm. I certainly suffered torment with that%eczema for many years. "I chased after everything I ever heard of, but all to no avail. I saw tbe advertisement for Cuticura Soap and Ointment and sent for a sample.

Thomas hovered many a time outside the walls of that feminine paradise. He got to writing poetry. Once he saw "his Mattie" through a barred gate. HeT flushed like a conscious schoolboy. She smiled bewitchinglyand waved her pretty, slender hand at him in a girlish, tantalizing way. "They have a regular party here once a month," a "boy" friend told Thomas next day. "There is music, dancing anci a supper." "Ladies, too?" inquired Thomas hopefully. "Yes, Mrs. Professor Gregg and her -^cit7-=J Th^-tH^^e-aags for tonight, "Here, You Boy!" regime you're past hope. Want to try him?" "You advise it?" "Strongly." " A l l right then," said Thomas. "You will come back with j y o u r youth renewed. Then, if you take my advice, get married and home life will do the rest." Thus it was that two mornings later Thomas Maltby was introduced to Prof. Septimus Gregg at the doctor's office. He found the latter to be a great, fierce, bearish old fellow. "Tommy Maltby, eh?" he spoke. "Well, Tommy, if you're ready, toddle along with me. I've a few purchases to make and you can carry the bundles." Thomas stared. He got ready to resent such familiarity.. Then he remembered that the doctor had told him that the professor was an eccentric, and had exacted a promise that he would obey his directions to the smallest detail. Thomas'stared still more strangely as the professor entered a department store and purchased: (1) half a dozen shoefly kites; (2)1 as many humming tops; (3) a dozen ' ags of marbles; (4) a box of bubble pipes. "You must have a lot of children to provide for, professor?" ventured Thomas. "H'm! you'll soon find out," was the gruff rejoinder.. When they reached a walled-in country place at noon that day, Thomas Maltby wondered if he had entered an asylum. A dozen men as old or older than himself greeted their arrival boisterously, Some of them Were barefooted. A l l of them wore knickerbockers. They capered around like boys on a vacation. Eagerly they scrambled for the doctor's purchases. Then they hooted and frisked about like mere kids. They played marbles, blew bubbles, spun tops, flew kites. "Now then, make believe you're a boy again. Forget everything for one month but just that," said the professor, and Thomas was escorted to a room with a trundle bed, and emerged from It wearing a juvenile costume like, the others. Thomas grinned and then laughed outright as lie fcot ohtb the scheme. He was to play boy for a month. Ha was hailed as "Tom" on the playyou know. .Very formal and dighT fied." Thomas never enjoyed himself as he did at the function announced. There were friendly introductions and a pleasant time all around. Despite the conventionalities, however, ruddy cheeks, the glow of health, gay boy and girl laughter made the affair delightful. Of course Thomas met Mattie. She was a city stenographer who had taken the cure, to come out bright and vivacious and restored to health. When Thomas returned to the city he sought her out. lie called on her twice, but only had he to tell her his love to win her complete acceptance of his suit. Returned from a year's tour of Europe, one day Dr. Philetus Derringer chanced to meet Thomas. The latter, smiling, brisk and happy, hailed him with a healthy handshake that made the physician wince. "It is plain to see lhat you took the juvenile cure," said the doctor. "Yes, and won a splendid wife and a comfortable home through it all," declared Thomas. "We live next door to a glorious family with 11 children, and we're all just like kids. Going home now to fly kites for them." ( "You have certainly solved the | great problem of health and happii ness," proclaimed the delighted doc- •tor. PROPER WORD. "Is aviation expensive?" N "Yes, the upkeep is quite consider^ able."

The Balkan allies, after considering the whole situation among themselves decided to wait until the middle of next week for the answer of the Porte to the joint note of the powers, and if then the teply was not received or was unsatisfactory, to address^ a:*T>Gommunication to the Turkish delegation in the form of a definite ultimaSrf; allowing Turkey 48 to 72 hours for a final decision. Should Turkey at that time be unable or unwilling to come to the allies terms, the Balkan plenipotentiaries decided that a rupture of the peace conference was inevitable. Sofia. Belgrade and -Cettinje would denounce the armistice and four days later the war would be resumed. All Support Bulgaria. Tbe allies do not admit, or to be more exact, do not see the possibility of such proposals from Turkey or the powers as would allow of a resumption of negotiations, unless the Porte openly declared its readiness to give up Adrianople. So far, the instructions of the Bulgarian delegates do not admit of a discussion'of a proposal that Turkey retain Adrianople, even "dismantling the fortifications or conditions of peace leaving the question of Adrianople to be disposed of "last;— ARCHBALD IS GUILTY Senate Holds Commerce Court Jurist Influenced Officers of Erie R. R. Judge Robert W. Archbald of the commerce court was voted guilty of graft by the United States senate, sitting as a court of impeachment. This means his expulsion from office and that he never again can hold an'y office of public trust or honor in this nation. There were 13 -articles of impeachment sent by the house of representatives to the senate to be voted on separately by the senators. It was only necessary that tpe < accused be found guilty on one charge to expel him. Thus when the first vote was announced his *fate had been sealed. A two-thirds vote was necessary on each ballot to sustain the charge then being voted on. Archbald was found guilty on the first charge by a vote of 68 to 5. The impeachment proceedings against Judge Archbald were started early in 1912, when complaint was made to the interstate commerce commission, and later to Attorney General Wickersham and President Taft, that Judge Archbald had been concerned in influencing railroads to grant him certain favors in connection with coal land deals, and the settlement of cases involving coal properties. » A new clothes pin plant has been completed by the Oval Wood Dish Co. in Traverse City.

S. Ships Are Ready. Reports of a grave situation at Vera Cruz, Mex., caused state department officials to seriously consider detaching one of the warships from the first division of the Atlantic fleet at Gauntanamo for immp.dia.tn duiy^—at—the- Mexican port. Continued disorders and widespread rebel activities in southern Mexico, in which official dispatches say small towns and ranches have been attacked and pillaged, women have been carried off and bandits have demoralized the populace, have aroused apprehension for the safety of Americans in the disturbed zone. That the Madero government is providing little or no protection for foreign intrrests has again been made evident by the recent action of American, planters in announcing that they proposed to pay tribute to the rebel Zapata to protect their growing crops against other, rebel bands and raiders. State department officials admitted that their reports were of a condition' so grave as to indicate that the presence of a United States warship might be necessary to protect Americans.

The immediate consequences of the decision of the Turkish grand council will be the cessation of hostilities between Greece and Turkey, and the surrender of the Turkish fortresses of Adrianople, Janina and Scutari. At all three fortresses the Turkish garrisons win withdraw with the honors of war. Following a break in the levee at Beulah, Miss., which threatens wholesale destruction in the fertile Mississippi delta valley region, 100 convicts working on the levee made a dash for liberty. Seizing guns they fought desperately to resist capture. The guards also armed with guns, fought back and two guards were slightly wounded and four convicts wounded so seriously that they will die. The guards finally subdued the prisoners after they had been surrounded and forced to stand for several minutes neck deep in water. Gov. Brewer, of Mississippi, when he heard of the break, asserted that the dilatory tactics of the Mississippi levee board was responsible for the crevasse and that everyone ought to be prosecuted. Traffic Is Abandoned. Railroad traffic on the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley railroad was abandoned. Hundreds of persons were thereby left to their fate. The only hope of rescue is by boat after the water becomes deep enough to permit t}ie_operation of power boats. -3 The crevasse will mean the inundation of a strip of land 100 miles long and 80 miles wide. The levee at Beulah broke, causing millions of dollars of damage. Government engineers have been notified of the break and are hurrying men and supplies to the spot in an effort to check the water. The break is a serious one and it is feared that jthe_entlr_e levee near Beulah is in dan ger. T H E B A N K S Mexican Volcano In Eruption. Colmia volcano in Mexico is in violent eruption and inhabitants of several towns and villages noar the mountain are fleeing to escape death by strapgulatlon. The big crater is vomiting enormous quantities of lava, sand, ashes and poisonous gases. Thousands of cattie and other animals have met Earthquake in Constantinople. As a climax to the two days of rioting and bloodshed which have marked the overthrow of the Turkish government and the assassination of Nazim Pasha, commander-in-chief of the Turkish army, a severe earthquake shook the capital, caused buildings to totter, torte holes in the streets and created consternation among the populace. « No loss of life has been reported, but the city, already in a state bordering on panic as a result of the clamor against the declaration of peace with the Balkan states, is in a state of excitement. The rioting has been temporarily halted by the earthquake. The earth tromor is thought to have been the most severe ever felt in this part of the continent and was of several minutes' duration. The closing of the year 1912 bas brought out the usual bank statements accompanied by the addresses of the Presidents and General Managers of these institutions. Their reading ia interesting as they show in a striking manner the prosperity of Uie country, and deal with economic matters in a first hand way. Those who know anything of Canadian banking methods know the stability* of these institutions, and the high character of the men who are placed in charge. In discussing the land situation the Pres. ident of the Union Bank of Canada, whose branches are to be found in all parts of the Canadian West, said : - 7 4 "A good deal has been said about speculation in land. The increase i n land values has added enormously to the assets of Western business, and has to some extent formed a basis for •extended credit, but this is not felt to be a drawback when the value is real and convertible. We consider <hat a business standing which is strengthened and enhanced by property holdings is entitled to a reasonable enlargement of credit for legitimate business operations." It will thus be seen that the banks recognize the certain rise in the value of farm^lajids in Western Canada. When the £acts are known of the wonderful producing qualities of farm lands in the Provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, it is simple to understand the liberal stand taken by the banks. Living not far from Lashbura, Sask., is a farmer named Clarke who in 1912 secured a crop of Marquis Wheat, yielding 76 bushels per acre. This is spoken of as a record yield, and this is doubtless true, but several cases have been brought to notice where yields almost as large have been produced, and in different parts of the country. During the past year there have been reported many yields of from 35 to 45 bushels of wheat to the acre. Oats, too, were a successful crop, and so was the barley crop. Wheat that would yield 40 bushels per acre, v juld bring on the market 70c (a fair figure) per bushel, a gross return of $28.00 per acre. A l - low $12.00 per acre (an outside figure) there would be a balance of $16,00 ner • *~ ~ ~>» a nfi. j ^ *y t 1 J Poincare Elected President of France. Raymond Poincare, republican, was elected president of the Republic of France, He's the present prime min ister and was the most popular of the seven orginal candidates. Poincare is thus made ninth president of the third republic, succeeding President Armand Fallieres. Poincare was chosen on the second ballot amid scenes of the wildest confusion, after he had challenged to a duel Georges Clemenceau, a former premier, and after a second duel challenge has been sent by Deputy Mojzie, a Poincare supporter, to former Minister Boncour, an adherent of Jules Pams, secretary of agriculture. The incident between Poincare and Clemenceau arose out of a letter sent by the former premier, to Mr. Poincare, the contents of which were considered offensive by Mr Poincare.

Smoke blotted out the sky and added darkness to the other terrors that drove the residents of the small towns from their homes, guided only by the light from the bewitching volcano. A report from Guadalajara, 100 miles from the volcano, said that ashes and gases1 there caused great discomfort. If the eruption continues, it is feared several" towns will be de* siroyed.

The &Tmy"^therer numbering 60,000, is advancing against Janina in a semicircle. The Greeks have been fighting for five days consecutively. The siege is most difficult owing to the mountainous nature of the district and the rery nairow passes, which are strongly fortified. The operations have been rendered still more difficult by stormy weather. If the war is resumed in the next week the allies have agreed that the offensive shall be taken by the combined Bulgarian, Greek and Servian forces against both Adrianople and Tchatalja. The Servians will dispatch some of their troops to help the Montenegrins take Scutari. "acre net profit. This figure should satisfy anyone having land that cost less than $100.00 per acre. Very much less return than this proves satisfactory to those holding lands in Iowa and Illinois worth from $250 to $300^ per acre. The latest Government returns give an approximate estimate of four hundred thousand of an immigration to Canada during 1912. Of this number 200,000 will be from the United States. Most of these are of the farming class and it Is not difficult to understand why farming lands in Canada will advance from ten to twenty per cent, within the next twelve months. Therefore investment in Western Canadian lands is not looked upon as being i n the speculative class. Those fortunate enough to secure free* homesteads in Canada will acquire m the intrinsic value of the land alone the best possible start for a splendid future. Ad* vertisement. T H E FLYING AGE.

Madame and Miss Melanie Key- Jiier. He proposes to the latter and is refused. Melanie explains that she is-of high birth in a German principality, from which she had fled to escape an unwished marriage. The three arrange a coast trip on Van Camp's yacht, the Sea Gun. Hambleton wakes up on board the Jeanne D'Arc, the yacht on which is Agatha Redmond. His clothes and money belt have been taken from him.

Jimmy and Agatha are both abandoned by the crew, who take to the boats. Jimmy dives into the sea and reaches Agatha. C H A P T E R VIII.—Continued. When daylight came, they found they had not traveled far -from the scene of the night's disaster; or, if they had, the Jeanne A.'Arc had drifted with them. She was still afloat, and just as the sun rose they saw her, apparently not far away, tossing rudderless to the waves. There was no slgu of the shlp^-boats, At "the renewed miracle of light. The two in the water watched with fascinated eyes, filled with awe. When it was ail over Agatha turned to her companion with a long-drawn breath* Jim looked as one looks whose last hope has failed. "I could never have let you goaboard, anyway!" He loved her anew for that speech, but knew not how to meet her eyes. "Well, Ulysses lost his raft, too!" he managed to say. "He saw the sunrise, too, just as we have seen it; and he saw a distant Island, that seemed a shield laid on the misty sea.' Let's look hard now, each time the wave lifts us. Perhaps we also shall see an island " "We must swim harder; you are chilled through." "Oh, no," she laughed. "I shivered at the thought of what a fright I mtnlf look. I always did hate to get my hair wet." "You look all right to- me." They were able to laugh, and so kept up heart. They tried to calculate the direction the yacht had taken when she left port, and where the land might lie; and when they had argued about it, they set out to swim a certain way. In their hearts each felt that any calculation was futile, but they pretended to be in earnest. They could not see far, but they created for themselves a goal and worked toward it, which is -e4-=the= and at sight of the yacht, Jimmy's hopes were reborn. His spirit bathed In the wonder of the day and was made strong again. The night with Its horrors of struggle and its darkness was past, forgotten in the flush of hope that came with the light. Together they struck out toward the yacht, fresh with new courage. Now that he could see plainly, Jim swam always a little behind Agatha keeping a watchful eye. She still took the water gallantly, nose and closed mouth just topping the wave, like a spaniel. An occasional sidestroke would bring her face level to the water, with a backward smile for her companion. He gloried in her. spirit, even while he feared for her strength. It was a longer pull to the yacht than they had counted upon, a heavy tax on their powers of endurance. Jim came up to find Agatha floating on her back and put his hand under her shoulders, steadying her easily. "Now ^ o u can really rest," he said. "I've looked toward the horizon so lor/g, I thought I'd look up, way up. for a change," she said cheerfully "That's where the skylarks go, when they want to sing—straight up into heaven!" "Doesn't it make you - want to sing?" She showed no surprise at the question "Yes, it does, almost. But just as 1 thought of the skylarks, I remem bered eo me thing else; something that kept haunting me in the darkness all night— " 'Master in song, good-by, good-by. Down to1 the dim sea-line—' I thought something or somebody was fturejy lost down in 'the dim sea-line' last night." "Who can tell? But I had a better thought than yours; Ulysses, like us, swimming over the 'wine-dark sea'! Do you remember it? Then two days and two nights on the resistless waves be drifted; many a time his heart faped death/" "That's not a bit better thought than mine; but I like it. And I know what follows, too. 'But when the fairhaired dawn brought the third day, t then the wind ceased; there came a breathless calm; and close at band be spied the coast, as he cast a keen glance forward, upborne on a great » ware/ .That's It, isn't it?" "I don't know, but I hope it is. 'The wine-dark sea' and the 'rosyfingered dawn are all I remember; though I'm glad you know what comes next. It's a good omen. But look v At the yacht; she's acting strange!" As the girl turned to her stroke* ' 4heir attention was caught and held by the convulsions of the Jeanne D'Arc. There was a grim * fascination in the sight. It was obvious that she was sinking. While they had been resting, her hull had sunk toward the waterline, her graceful bulk and delicate masts showing strange against ocean and sky. Now she suddenly tipped down at her stern; her bow was thrown up out of the water for an Instant, only to be drawn down again, slowly but irresistibly, as tf she were pulled by a giant's, unseen hand, With a sudden last larch she disappeared entirely, and only widen* ing circles fleetlngly marked the place of her going. .- \ . _ •'•v -t- •'.«, itself a happiness. So they watched and waited, ages long. Hope came to them again presently. James, treading water, thrust up his head and scented the air. "I smell the salt marsh, which means land!" He sniffed again. "Yes, decidedly!" A moment later it was there, before their vision—that "shield laid on the misty sea" which was the land. Only It was not like a shield, but a rocky spit of coast land, with flr trees farther back. James made for the nearest point, though his heart shrank to see how far away it was. Fatigue and anxiety were taking their toll of his vigor. Neither one had breath to spare even for exultation that the land was in sight Little by little Agatha grew more quiet, though not less brave. It took all her strength to flght the water— that mighty element which indifferently supports or engulfs the human atom. If she feared, she made no sign. Bravely she kept her heart, and carefully she saved her strength, swimming slowly, resting often, and wasting no breath in talk. But more and more frequently her eyes rested wistfully on James, mutely asking him for help. He watched her minute by minute, often begging her to let him help her. "Oh, no, not yet; I can go on nicely. H~h just rest a—little. -There—thank you." Once she looked at him with such pain in her eyes that he silently took her hands, placed1 them on bis shoulder and carried her along v/itb his stronger stroke. She was reassured by his strength, and presently she slipped away from him, smiling confidently again as she swam alongside. "I'm all right now; but I suddenly thought, what if anything should happen to you, and I be left alone! Or what i f I should get panicky and clutch you and drag you down, the way people do sometimes!" "But 1 shan't leave you alone, and you're not going to do that!" , Agatha smiled, but could only say, "I hope not!" She forged ahead a little, and presently bad another moment of fright on looking round and finding that Jim had disappeared. He had suddenly dived, without giving her warning. He came up a second later, puffing and slitting the bluer brine; but his face was radiant. "Rocks and seaweed!" he cried. "The land is near. Come;' I can swim and take you, too, easily. And now I know certainly Just which way to go. Come, come!" Agatha heard it all, but this time she .was unable to utter a word J i m saw her stiff lips move in an effort to smile or speak, but he heard no voice. "Keep up, keep up, dear girl!" he cried. "We'll soon be there. Try, try to keep up! Don't lose for a moment the thought that you are near land, that you are almost there. We are safe, you can go on—only a few moments more!" Poor Agatha strove as J im bade her, gallantly, hearing his voice as through a thickening wall; but she had already done her best, and more. Shestmggled for a few half-conscious moments; then suddenly her arms gtew limp, her e/ee olosed, and her weight came upon J im as that of a dead person. Then he set his teeth and nerved himself to make the effort of his life. It is no easy thing to strain forward, swimming the high seas, bearing above the surface a load which on land would make' a strong man stagger. One must watch one's burden, to guard against mishap; one must save breath and muscle, and keep an eye fer direction, all in a struggle against a hostile element. The goal still seemed incredibly far, farther than his strength could go. Yet he swam on, fighting against the heart-breaking thought that his companion had perhaps gone "down to the dim sea-line" in very truth. She had been so brave, so strong- She had buoyed up his courage when it had been fainting; she had fought splendidly against the last terrible inertia of exhaustion* "Courage!" he told>3*lmself- "We must make the land!" T&tff it took a stupendous effort. H i s strokes became unequal, some of them feeble and ineffective; his musctes ached with the strain; now and then a strange whirring and dizziness in his head caused him to wonder dimly whether he were above or below water. He could no longer swim with closed lips, but constantly threw hi3 head back with the gasp that marks Holding edmond" Hi front of him, with her head well above the water and her body partly supported by the life preserver, he swam sometimes with one hand, sometimes only with his legs. He dared not stop dow, lest he be too late in reaching land or wholly unable to regather his force. The dizziness increased, and a sharp pain In his eyeballs recurred again and again. He could no longer see the land; it seemed to him that it was blood, not brine, that spurted from nose and mouth; but still he swam on, holding the woman safe. He made a gigantic effort to shout, though he could scarcely hear his own voice. Then he fixed his mind solely on his swimming, counting one stroke after another, like a man who Is coaxing sleep. How long he swam thus, he did not know; but after many strokes be was conscious of a Sense of happiness that, after all, it wasn't necessary to reach land or to struggle any more. Rest and respite from excruciating effort were to be had for the taking— why had he withstood them so long? r ihe sea rocked him, the surge filled his ears, his limbs relaxed their tension. Then it was that a \strong hand grasped him, and a second later the same hand dealt him a violent blow on the face. He had to begin the intolerable exertion of swimming again, but he no longer, had- a burden to _hol d safejthat the ascent would be easy en-ough. Nevertheless, the campers did attempt it. Instead, they had* made a fir* of driftwood on the &and out of reach of the highest tide. Near the fire they had spread fir boughs, and on tiij^fragrant couch lames was lying. H e i j ^ B a l l unconscious,, apparently, of-the primitive nature of his surroundings, the sweetness of his balsam bed. and the watchful care of his two nurses. Jim was in a bad way, if one eould trust the remarks of his male nurse, who spake to &n invisible (companion as he gathered chips and other bits of -wood from the beach. He was a young, businesslike fellow with a clean, wholesome face, dressed only in a gauze shirt, trousers, and boots without stockings; this lack, of course, was not immediately apparent. The tide had just turned after th<e ebb, and he went far down over the wet sand, sometimes climbing over the rocks farther along the shore until he was out of sight of the camp Returning from one of these excursions, which had been a bit longer than he intended, he looked anxiously toward the fire before depositing his armful of driftwood. The blaze had died down, but a good bed of coals remained; and upon this the young man expertly built up a new fire. It crackled and blazed into life, throwing a ruddy glow over the'shingle. the rock* behind, and the figure lying on the balsam couch. James' face was waxen in its paleness, save for two fiery spots on his cheeks; and as ho lay he stirred constantly in a feverish unrest. His bare feet were nearest the fire; his blue woollen trousers and shirt were only partly visible, being somewhat covered by a man's tweed coat Tha firo lighted up, also, the figure of Agatha Eedmond. She was kneeling at the farther end of Jim's couch, laying a white cloth, which had been wet. over his temples. Her long dark hair was hanging just as it had dried, except that it was tied together low in the back with a string of slippery seaweed. Her neck was bare, her feet also; her loose blouse had lost al! semblance of a made-to-order garment, but it still covered her; while a petticoat that had once been black satin hung in stiff, salt-dried creases over her waist to a little below her kn^es. She had the well-set head and good shoulders, with deep chest, which makes any garb becoming; her face was bonny, even now, clouded as it was with anxiety and man who had dragged her and her rescuer from t£ie water, who had made lire and a bad for them, who got milk for sustenance, had been almost the last person her conscious eyes had seen in that half-hour of terror on the hillside. Her next memory, otter an untold interval, was the rocking of the ship, an ©Id woman who treated her obsequiously, a man who was her servile attendant and yet her jailer—but then, suddenly, as she knelt there, mind and body refused their service. She cnx&ftod down on the soft sand, burying her head In her arms. Hand came nearer and bent awkwardly over her, as if to coax her confidence. "It's a ll right now. Mademoiselle. Whatever you think of me, you can trust me now." "Ob, I'm not afraid of you now." Agatha moaned in a muffled voice. "Only I'm so puzzled by it all—and so tired!" " 'Twas a fearful strain, Mademoiselle. But I can make you a bed here, so you can sleep/' Agatha shook" her head "I can sleep on the eand, just as well." *T think. Mademoiselle.

Started like little white pimples, looked like an old scab of blood and matter. His whole head was covered for a few months, then it went to his ear, shoulders, and his tfhole body, i t seemed^to come out thick and sticky on his head, while to her forehead, straining to put her | on the other parts of his body i t was more like water coming out of the skin. He would scratch until the eruption would be all covered with blood and gradually spread. The least little stir or rub would cause the sores to bleed, spread and itch. Never had a full night's sleep, restless all night. "The sores were horrid to look at. It lasted until he was about two and a half years old. Then we saw an eczema advertisement in the p2per to use , but it did no good. Then there was no burden in sight. Halfconsclously he felt the earth once more beneath his feet, but he could not stand. He fell face forward into the water again at bis first attempt, and again the strong hand pulled him up an$half-carried him over some slimy rocks. It was an endless journey befote the strong hand would let him sit or lie down, but at last he was allowed to drop. He vaguely felt the warmth of the sun drying his skin while the sea hummed m his ears; he felt distinctly the sharp pain between his eyes, and a parching thirst. He groped around In a delirious search for water, which he did not find; he pressed bis head and limbs against the earth in an exquisite relief from pain; and at last his bruised feet, his aching bones and head constrained him to a lethargy that ended in sleep. C H A P T E R IX, Tre Camp on the Beach. Sunset of the day that had dawned so strangely and wonderfully for those two wayfarers of earth, James and Agatha, fell on a< little camp near the spit of coast-land toward which they had struggled. The point lifted Itself abruptly into a rocky bank which' curved In and out, yielding to the besieging ^ waves, Just here had been formed a little sandy cove partly protected by the beetling cliff. At the top was verdure in abundance. Vines hung down over the face of the wall, coarse grasses and underbrush grew to its very edge, and sharp*pointed fir trees etched themselves against the clear blue of the rky. HeJow, the-white sand formed a aickle-shaped beach, bordered by the rocky wall* with its sharp point dipping far out to sea. High up on the-sand a small rowbqat was beached, There was no path visible up from the ihlngle, but i t was evident fatigue, bhe greeted the young man eagerly on his return. "If yet* could only find a little mere fresh water, I am sure It would help. The milk was good, only he would take so little. I think I shall have to let you go this evening to hunt for the farm-house." "Yes, Mademoiselle," the young man replied. He had wanted to go earlier in the day, but the man was too i l l and the woman too exhausted to be left alone. He went on speaking slowly, after a pause. "I can find the farm-house. I am sure, only it may take a little time. Following the cattle would have been the quickest way; but I can find the cowpath soon, even as It is. If you wouldn't be uneasy with me gone, Mademoiselle!" "Oh, no, we shall be all right now, till you can get back!" As she spoke, Agatha's eyes rested questioningly on the youth who, ever since she had revived from her faint of exhaustion, had teased her memory. He had seen them struggling in the sea, and had swum out to her aid. she knew; and after leaving her lying on a slimy, seaweed-covered rock, he had gone out again and brought in her companion in a far worse condition than herself. The young man, also, was a survivor of the Jeanne D'Arc. having come from the disabled craft in the tfny rowboat that was now on the beach More than this she did not know, yet something jogged hei memory every now and the:, -something that would n,ot shape Itself definitely. Indeed, she had been too much engrossed in the serious condition of her companion and the work necessary to make a camp, to spend any thought on unimportant speculations. But now, as she listened to the youth's respectful tones, It suddenly came back to her. She looked at him with awe-struck eyes. "Oh, now I know! You are the new chauffeur; 'queer name, Hand!' Yes, I remember—I remember." "What you say Is true, Mademoiselle." He stood before her, a stubbornly submissive look on his face, as a servant might stand before his betrayed master. It was as if he had been waiting for that moment, waiting for her anger to fall on him. But Agatha was speechless at her growing wonder at the trick fate had played thorn. Her steady gaze, serious and earnest now, without a hint of the laughter that usually came so easily, dwelt on the young man's eyes for a moment, then she turned away as if she were giving up a puzzling question. She looked at James, whose stubblybearded face was now quiet' against Its green Pillow*. as H seeking a solution there; but she had to fall back, at last, on the youth. "Do you know who this man is?" she asked irrelevantly. "No, Mademoiselle. Ho was picked up In New York harbor, the night we weighed anchor. I have not seen him since until»today." "'The night we weighed anchor!' What night was that?" "Ladt^Monday, Mademoiselle; at about six bells.V "And what day is today?" "Saturday, Mademoiselle; and past four bells now." ^Monday—Saturday!" Agatha looked abstractedly down on Jimmy asleep, while upon her mind crowded the memories of that week. This mind upon tfc<? problem at hand. "Go for a doctor, first. Hand; then, if you can, get some food—bread and meat; and, for pity's sake, a cloak or long coat of some kind. Then find out where we are, what the nearest town is, and if^a telegraph station is near. And stay; have you any money?" " A little. Mademoiselle; between nine and ten dollars." "That is good; it will serve for a little while. Please spend it for me; I will pay you. As soon as we can get to a telegraph station I can get more. Get the things, as I have said; and then arrange, if you can. for 'a carriage and another man. besides yourself and the doctor, to come down as u<?ar this point as possible. You two can carry him"—she looked wistfully at James—"to the carriage, wherever it Is able to meet us. But you will need to spend money to get all these things; especially if you get them tonight, as I hope you may." "I will try, Mademoiselle." The ex-chauffeur stood hesitating, howeverT" At last. "I bate to leave you= here alone, with only a sick man. and night coming on." he said. "You need not be afraid for me." replied Agatha coldly. Her nerves had given way, now that the need for active exertion was past, and were almost at the breaking point. It came back to her*«gain, moreover, how this man and another bad made her a prisoner in a motor-car, and at the moment she felt foolish In trusting to him for further help. It came into her mind that he was only seeking an excuse to run away, in fear of being arrested later. A second time she looked up into his eyes with her serious, questioning gaze. "I don't know why you were in the plot to do as you did—last Monday afternoon," she said slowly: "but whatever it was, it was unworthy of you. You are not by nature a criminal and a stealer of women, I know. And you have been kind and brave today; I ehall never forget that. Do you really mean now to stay by me?" Hand's gaze was no less earnest, than her own; and though he flinched at "criminal," his eyes met herB steadily. "As long as I can help you, Mademoiselle, I will do so." At his words, spoken with sincerity, Agatha's spirit, tired and overwrought as it was, rose for an Instant to its old-time buoyancy. She smiled at him. "You mean it?" she asked. "Honest true, cross your heart?" Hand's businesslike features relaxed a little. "Honest true, cross my heart!" he repeated. " A l l right," said Agatha, almost cheerfully. "And now you must go, before it gets any darker. Don't try to return in the night, at the risk of losing your way. But come as soon as you can after daylight; and remember, I trust you! Good-by."

The question arises as to where the line should be drawn. X o w , college athletics will never thrive without intercollegiate contests. To get for the greatest number the greatest beneficial results from athletics you must create the maximum interest, and to do ttris vou must have the maximum incentive, ^ e r y few men will go out and run around a quarter-mile track purely for exercise. 1- "There must oe the incentive of a contest, either present or prospective. I f the prospective contest be a trial of speed against some individual college mate the incentive may be sufficient to sustain a couple of weeks" training, but i f the incentive be the hope of representing his class in a n inierclass 'contest a man will train longer and more faithfully. If, however, the incentive be the ccrtaintv that if he demonstrates that he is the best man in the event among all his classmates and college mates as well, he will have the honor of wearing his college colors in an intercollegiate contest, and then the opportunity of testing his speed against the -best athletes of neighboring colleges. Then a man will train season after season, and there is an incentive that will attract the maximum number of men into the sport. Xow i f it be true, as I contend that it is, that athletics in college are essential to wholesome life, and if it he true, and I contend that it is, that any general sustained interest in athletics is impossible in a college without the stimulus of prospective intercollegiate contests, then it ought to follow that any restrictions as to the number of such contests should be made only for sound reasons and upon the practical certainty that some advantage is assured which will compensate for the loss of athletic interest and activity which is certain to follow anv extensive restriction. I f it be true, >rhich T should not be willing to concede, that there 5s any serious necessity of reducing the number of intercollegiate contests, it is mv idea that the onlv contests which can be eliminated without seriously impairing the internal athletic activities of the colleges are, first, intercollegiate contests in indoor games, such as basket ball, and, second, intercollegiate class contests. I should regret exceedingly seeing any substantial restriction of the number of games in any of the so-called major sports. Take football as an illustration. I f the game is to be played at all it should be played well. The highest standard of play cannot be reached without contests with other colleges distributed through the season.

This tends to lessen the number of men who will try for the team, and the whole tendency would be toward a decrease of healthy athletic activity within the college. To my mind this would be unfortunate. D o i n g R i g h t M a k e s S u c c e s s I n L i f e Briefly stated, a successful life is one which is well advanced toward real manhood—- the likeness of God—"the full stature of manhood in Christ." A t some period in the life of each individual there comes an awakening to the necessity of' Tightness, and hence an awakening to the importance of that ideal manhood which accords with the divine requirement. We believe that each one must work out the problem of life from the particular position in which the necessity of so doing first appears to h i m ; that he must begin at once to develop Christian graces. The old admonition, " D o with your ;might what your hands find to do," might probably better read, " D o well what your hands find to do," and it should be noted that doing well does not necessarily mean Aoing big things. It means doing right in all things, great and small, doing right at every step of the journey, doing iright with reference to every experience.

NEW YORK. — A man just past middle age, gray-haired and ruddy-faced, sat thumbing a Bible. He was the Rev. George R. Van De Water, D. D., rector of the big New York Church of St. Andrew, and th§ place was the wt.udy in his home, No. 7 West One hundred and Twenty-second street. As he read through his thlckrimmed, big-lensed spectacles he smiled. And then- he laughed—the laugh of a man in joy. "What a great thing it Is to see!" he exclaimed. "1 have come out of the great darkness—I can sse again. I can see, see, see!" He showed the front page of the Book. 'This is what I have written/' he, added, earnestly. There it was in his own handwriting, the handwriting of the man who had started into the dark four years ago and now had eome_out B e i n g P o ^ v e r F o r G o o d I n S o m e W a y Br SARA McLEAN, OochwaHtO. Knowledge unaccompanied by other high qualities does not properly shape one's life. Virtue and integrity are not elusive. Jteople who may have left them far behind i n their pursuit of other interests can pick them up again, as the weaver does the broken thread in his loom, and they can go on weaving their life web, making it one of beautiful usefulness and worth. It does not make any difference to what extent one is educated i f there is no expansion, of „soul; the life cannot be well proportioned. Bacon says: " F o r in proportion as a man is watchfully and prayerfully on his guard against the unseen current of passion • and prejudices, which is ever tending to drive him out of the right course, i n the same degree he w i l l have reason for cherishing an humble hope that he, the Spirit of T r u t h , is, and will be with him to enlighten his > "There is no greater monster in being than a very bad man of great .

W e should ever allow his intellect to interfere with his being a into the light: "This Bible, most comprehensive and in the best type and on the thinnest paper, was given me by my brother John during the year of my blindness for my use after the operation. " 'Open Thou mine eyes, that I may Bee the wondrous things of thy law'— Psalm eXVIII." And then this: •'It was the first book I read after the operation, when I had received my glasses." "Whereas I was blind, now I see!" he. uttered solemnly, gazing through his big glass lenses. These the oculist gives to take the place of the lens of the eye removed by the operation for cataract. It was a few days before that his church had held a celebration of thanksgiving in remembrance of his return to sight. Both., cataracts have been removed from Dr. Van Dc Water's eyes, and again he can see. His brother John passed into eternal darkness only the week before sight came back to the eyes of Dr. Van De Water. "Few can realize,'' said Dr. Van De Water, "what it means to go blind and then have the joy of sight returned. How it happened I can't tell; it might have been my experiences at Santiago in the Spanish war'—Dr. Van De Water was chaplain of the Seventy-flrst New York there—"or it might have been inheritance or accident." First Glimmer of Fearful Truth. "I^heard the real truth in 1908. I had never been to an oculist in my yfe—i W ore glasses merely to help me see more clearly. But in that year I noticed that things were getting dimmer—there wasn't enough light. I began complaining that our church wasn't light enough for me to. see plainly; at home. I began to believe that the gas was dim." Dr. Van De Water looked up through his big lenses and smiled reminiscently. And he told of how he had gone to his regular optician to have his glasses changed. ' " 'Look here,' the man said to me. 'I know you're a man who wants to know the truth. I'm not going to lie to you—you've got cataracts on both eyes. See a specialist right away.'" Cataracts! Who can realize what they mean unless they, too, have had them. It means that the sun goes out, that it is midnight at midday! Things grow strangely dim in broad daylight. It gets grayer and grayer and then at last you grope your way in an awful never ending night. You are blind, where once you could see! Such were the experiences of Dr. Van De Water. As the days passed they became darkey and darker, but he mentioned it to Mrs. Van De Water alone, ever hoping for the light. The affliction comes slowly, sometimes blindness does not arrive for two years. Foresaw Day of the Dark. In 1910 he went abroad in the hope of staving off the awful day when the world would go out. He and Mrs. Van De Water visited Oberammergau to see the Play of the Passion. He had to take field glasses with him to see the actors perform, and he knew that the day couldn't be long postponed— the day of the dark. "One eye went before the other," the clergyman said, "but still I could make out things* We went to the "Villa Serbellom above Beia*io, on Lake Como, t opposite Caddenabbia. That lake was the last thing I really could see. I came heme practically sightless! f "But I hoped—yes, I hoped. And I prayed. I hoped to prolong my vision by iridectomy and took the chance— it was useless. And my eyes went out on that last awful Sunday in 1910." The clergyman was referring to that day when he went to the reading desk to read the litany for his congregation. He found that his eyes had failed him completely—he was stone blind, and the types could not reach his brain. "Please finish it," he said to his assistant, turning helplessly away. "I am blind," he said to people in the pews, some of them weeping, "I have lost my sight; please bear with me." But let him tell some of the rest of his story, aa he revels today in vision "t^at4s>„perfect when he puts nn h\* big lenses—he cannot see without them. Joy of Restored Sight. "I love a picket fence, I love a mud puddle," he said, wiping the tears from his one time sightless eyes. "I love everything around me; I can see them all again. To think of going blind; not to know the faces of your friends, first, and then^ noting that it was going blacker every day—it's all too horrible! "So I went to Dr. John E. Weeks. 'Patience/ he told me, *you must wait.' And I could only take a chance on one eye at a time; the risk was too great. If we failed on one eye, we still had a chance for the other. "Other eyes helped me—those of my good^wife and of my curate, the Rev. Mr. Lvie. My wife read me my personal jm^r-my ourate took charge of the official business of the church. I decided to learn to write, though blind. Half a dozen members of my congregation came in and read to me every day for two or three hours. It is hard to realize what it means to have such friends when they must be eyeB for you. "And 'patience!' Dr. Weeks was Baying to me all the time. "The sexton led me to the pulpit every time I preached, and led me out again, i walked about with a cane in the familiar streets near my house and the church. One day a pathetic thing happened, a man bumped into me. 'I'm blind? he said, 'please help me across the street.' And I could only say, 'So am 1. I'm blind, too.' Struggle to Save Eyesight. "But still I had to wait/ ^he cataract had to form itself before I could go on the table for Dr. Weeks. I was in such a condition that I couldn't baptize a child or deliver the Sacrament. I learned the service by heart, but when there was a funeral I had to be led to the coffin. I had to be put to bed at night. And 'keep doing things,' was Dr. Weeks* everyday talk to me. 'You must work on if we are going to save your eyes'.* Dr. Van De Water told' of his struggles to Bee his fingers in the broad daylight, when he held them in front of his eyes; of the falls he had when he tried to make his way about his own home in the darkness that was his; of the weary waiting for the time When Dr. Weeks could say, •We're ready, now!" And of his thoughts when he could see nothing: . "I learned most of the psalms by heart," he said. "I revelled in Robert Burns, and ^specially in his 'Epistle to a Young Friend.' I had Whittier -ead to me—his 'Hymn on Eternal Goodness.* And over and over again they read to me John Forster's essay on 'Decision of Character.* But everything was as night to me. And I had to wait. "During all those long weary months, from October to A p r i l in the darkness, my mind unconsciously went back to my boyhood days. I could recall the days when I didn't wash my face and when I never wanted to take a bath. The old-fashioned hymns came back to me. I remembered better these things than what had happened o u l y l i t e w short years before. But I \?as blind." . \ Seemed the Dawn of Heaven. pretty rapidly now; he was getting to that day of days. The operation lasted only a half hour. His eyes were bound up for three weeks. "Then Heaven dawned! "One morning Dr. Weeks came in. and the bandages were taken off. He laughed a bit and showed me something. 'What's that?' he asked, with just a bit of a quiver in his voice." His Eyesight Given Back. • Dr. Van De Water brushed his hands across his eyes as he told the story. "It was a watch," he said, slowly and almost in reverence, "and I could see the second hand spinning around! He had put a lens over one of my eyes, and it had worked. Then they bandaged me up again in the dark for three more weeks. And it was only one eye—the other was still blind!" Dr. Van De Water paused for a moment.— H-e teokr-off-Ms s p e c t a c l e s : — "Can you realize, can any man, that without these glasses I can't see a single thing? A man and a tree look the same to me. Without those big lenses your face looks like a piece of paper." "And now see." He picked up a newspaper. Putting on his glasses, he read the print without trouble. "Yes," he ran on, "they gave me back my other eye, too, and now I can see. Oh, what a beautiful world it is! God is good, and I have been brought to realize it." Dr. Van De Water has had five pairs of spectacles since his sight was given back to him, each one a little more correct than the first. There is little left to do. On Thanksgiving day he could go into the pulpit and read his sermon with ease—"the most thankful person there."—New York World. Will Throw Light on History.

When he was playing in one of the southern cities a paper came out with the news that he had decided to leave the footlights at the expiration of his engagement in that city.

In Fort Stedrcan was the first pattalion, of the ?.4th N . Y. The 69th Mass. was aearby in the rear of Fort Stedman, in rear of Battery No. 10. In a . clump of pines on the left of Fort Stedman was the 3d Md., then Battery No. 11, then the 31st Mass., thea Battery No. 12, and the 100th Pa. (Roundheads) occupied the rifle pits up to Fort Haskell. On the morning of March 25, 1865,. just as our drum corps was getting out to beat reveille, the ball opened. It was 5 a. m. Co.

D ©f our regiment wa»- thrown baefc, and we, skirmishing, fell back to our workB. In the meantime our colonel, James Pentecost, rode down to the right of the line, and said: "Boys, our brigade commander, Gett. Bonaparte McLaughlin, of the 57th Mass., is taken prisoner." Col. Pentecost then ordered us to the other side of the rifle pits and into Fort Haskell. We obeyed orders,- and mounted on the front of the works inside of the abatis and dug right out for the fort. We got as far as the little run that went through our works, when I stopped and crawled upon the worka to"geTTTparting shot at the Johnnies, and the first thing I heard was: "Surrender you Yank." When I got to my feet there wen> 15 or 20 Johnnies with theigisjuns trained on us. They captured" our First Lieutenant, Ed McMillen, Fife Maj. Steward Alford and a recruit by the name of Rankin, all of Co. F, and some others of the regiment. Silas Alford, of Co. F, was killed right alongside of us. Col. James Pentecost was, mortally wounded, just on the other side of the works, dying the next day. Then the Johnnies started with us prisoners over to their main line of works, I was wounded and left lying about 50 yards in front of our own company's works in a gopher hole with Steward Alford, who had escaped the notice of the Johnnies as they were hustling to get out of the place when the balls were making the dirt fly. Alford and I lay in this hole all the* time the fight was going on, and could see the enemy in our works and also see them trying to storm Fort Haskell. They would get over the rifle pits and try and get around in front of the fort, but were cut down as fast as they got over. After the fight was over, about 8 a. m., two comrades of Battery No. 12 came out and carried me into the rifle pits. My two messmates helped to lift me over Saving Hie Pipe. The soldiers of a New York regiment, who were advancing on a concealed enemy, were very much amused to see a young Irishman continually dodging behind his companions at the sound of every volley that was fired against them, as if to avoid the bullets that were sometimes landing in dangerous proximity, when one of his Scotch companions said: "Stand forrld, my laddie, stand forrid.

This I found out; and Dr. Thibaut my medical adviser and friend, fearing I might not obey his injunctions, took the trouble to escort me to a small watering-place in the Dauphine, whence, he assured me, I should emerge perfectly cured, I did not at all relish the idea of becoming— even for a short- time—a fashionable idler. But afterward I had reason to be thankful, for the adventure I met with added a curious chapter to my experiences. : I went to that little place a few weeks after the execution of Eyraud, the murderer of the luckless Gouffe, a most sensational crime, which for several months kept the whole European press at fever heat. And, in order to escape interviewers and kodak fiends, I decided to travel incognito, e n d i n g myself in the hotel books as M. Guilbert; a wise precaution, as I soon discovered. « The most important guests in our [hotel where Count M , a Russian, a fine-looking man of about sixty-five, and his wife, a pretty woman quite forty years his junior. The countess, a restless young creature, was constantly organizing excursions in the mountains, leaving her husband at home to amuse himself. : Two days after my arrival I noticed a newcomer at our table d'hote, Mile. Eugenie Arco, an attractive young woman with dark eyes and jet-black hair. Her hands were small and aristocratic, and her appearance would have been in every way refined but for her ears. These were too large and stood rather far from her head. The girl fascinated, yet at the same time repelled, me. 1 It had been raining all tha morn- Ing, and I was in the reading-room glancing at an illustrated paper, when a voice near said, 1 "Pardon mer monsieur, I see you are a Russian." ! It was Mile. Arco. "No," I replied, pi am not." ! "I thought you were," she continued, "because I saw you reading a Russian periodical." "I was not reading it," I retorted, T w a s only looking at the pictures." "Oh, I see!" she explaimed. But the look Bhe gave me said she did not believe me. ! I did not care to continue the coniversation,- and she soon left the room, i From that moment, however, I noticed she never ceased to observe me, and many a time when I pretended to toe asleep in one of the armchairs in the hall her large black eyes were fastened on me as if they were trying to pierce my thoughts. I With the officials in the hotel Mile. Arco was a persona grata, for, unlike mdst women, who in money matters are inclined to be niggardly, she tipped the waiters and chambermaids most liberally. The manager of the hotel and his wife had also taken a great fancy to her, and she was alfways warmly welcomed by them in their sanctum, where she* would sit and smoke cigarette after cigarette. I Feeling myself closely watched by —Iiefs-I returned the compliment, and noticed that she would repair to the )office at those hours when the post tame tn, and look over the clerk's lehoulder at the letters he sorted And Jthen it struck me that no missive ever came addressed to her, although one afternoon, happening to pass her room tot £he moment the maid opened her door, I saw her deeply engaged in correspondence, with several letters i n Croat of her. 1 . The next morning, when Mile. Arco left the hotel I went out at the back, xnade Quickly f 0 r the post office by another road, and hid myself behind the hedge of an empty cottage opposite. I saw her enter the post office and leave it a few minutes later. She Hooked up and down the road, and, nobody being in sight, she took a letter out of her pocket, opened it, and read it eagerly. . ; "Bah," I said to myself, "you are cot clever, my girl. A child could Ihave seen through your game. Now "we shall have some fun." < That same evening after dinner rain Sell in torrents, and most of the guests i*ere in the drawing-room. A few were Sulging in a harmless game of ds; two girls were at the piano singing sentimental songs, and Mile. Arco reclined in a rocking-chair, a book in her lap. The count, a very reserved man, with whom I had thus far exchanged only a few words, was talking to a retired naval officer who Bad spent some years in Russia. | "Yea," I heard the count say, "we frraot a thorough change. It is a disgraceful state of things. These grand dukes-— ' T a l k i n g of Russia," I cut in, "al- Sow fide to read to you something/ that Just happened i n Paris." / ' I took a paper from my pocket,^and as I unfolded it I noticed the count, whom I had interrupted in the/middle «f his speech, gaze at me with any Jhing mis pleasure. ^ • -1 . "L^at night/' I read, <Ue police called to a house in the Rue Delambre, in the Montparnasse quarter, where, in a bedroom on.the fifth floor, they fouud the body of a young woman stabbed to the heart. On a piece of paper pinned to her dress the following lines were scribbled in pencils - "This woman, a wretched spy in the employ of the Russian police, lias for a long time past watched young men and girls studying at the Paris universities. Two girls who recently returned to Russia were, on that woman's information, arrested at the frontier, and^ have not been heard of since. There are, we know, other female spies now carrying on their nefarious work in some of the French watering places, and their turn will soon come. "The police are investigating the affair, which has created a tremendous sensation among the Russian students here." There was a moment's silence when I had finished, and then two or three of the guests remarked that it was a terrible business. The count remained sclent. He soon after went to bed, and I followed his example. The next morning after breakfast I sat ouJ«ide the hotel smoking my cigarette. The guests were at the springs or strolling about, while the countess had gone on one of her usual peregrinations. Toward two the count appeared, and, passing me, gave me one of his formal nods. I went up to him. "Pardon me," I said; "I owe you an apology for interrppting you somewhat rudely last night; but I took the liberty of stopping you from launching into what looked very much like a diatribe against the Russian authorities. You were apparently not aware that a political spy was sitting within a yard of you." "A spy!" he gasped. "Yes, a spy, in the person of that good-looking girl, Mile. Eugenie Arco. So, now, you will perhaps accept my apology." " M flnlhprt," he iBriiffherl,^ "I don't went straight to his wife's dressingroom. "Look at that!*' he exclaimed, pointing to a dressing-bag on the floor, its lock forced open, and many of the things it had contained scattered around. "The countess," he continueud, "kept her jewelry locked in that. The thief or thieves must have sneaked in knock at~*&y door. To my surprise the count entered. "Pardon my intruding upon you," he sighed. ut am very much anrioyed. This police commissary is not making any headway. He clings to the idea that the maid committed the deed, or that she Ja an accomplice; and he thinks he is on the right trail. M. Guibert, I must discover the culafter she left. What do you advise ! prit, and am willing to offer a reward me to do?" ; that may tempt any one to help me in "I think you had better wait for my search. The hotel proprietor sugthe countess' return before taking any gested me writing to M . Goron, asking Steps'; she will not be long. In the him to come to our assistance, as meantime you might question the these local detectives seem unable to know whether to challenge you to fight or to ask you to do me the honor to lucuph with me today." _^Xher^Js—no_^nec_essity for either." I replied. "I am only too happy to have rendered you a slight service." "How did you know she was a spy?" he asked. "Have you any proof?" "No, only strong suspicion. But we shall now have proofs." The head waiter was standing at the door. "I have not seen Mile. Arco this morning," I called out to him. "I hope she is not ill." "She has gone away," the man replied. "She left early this morning." The count looked puzzled. We walked a little way down the road, and then I said: "I had my doubts about that girl from the start; she is a bungler, a novice in the business. Fancy her suspecting me, a native of Brittany, of being a Russian Nihilist! Political spying is dirty work; but if you do it you must do it well or it becomes dangerous, especially to the spy. And that is why I tried to knock the fear into that young creature by reading out that paragraph last night." 'Tes, about those unfortunate girls. Poor things!" "Reserve your pity for another occasion, count I invented that story." M . Guibert!" he cried, "I complimaid." But Marfa, bad obtained her mistress' permission to go for a donkeyride to the monastery a few miles distant. So we waited till she came in. When the count told her of the robbery she looked thunderstruck. "I swear," she cried, "that when mad am e went out the bag was safely locked. I did not go into her room after she left." A loud noise down-stairs announced the cavalcade had returned from their excursion. The countess entered the hotel and her huBband went quickly up to her, I strolled down tlje road leading to the station, when a carriage drove up and a man jumped out, shouting: "Goron, Goron! How are you, old chap?" It was Dr. Thibaut. "Hold your tongue, you stupid!" I said. "What do you mean by bawling out my name? Have you forgotten that I am M. Guibert? I hope the driver has not heard you." >, "Th^ts all right," he rejoined; "he's as deaf as a post. I have taken a week's holiday. I want to spend it with you here, after which we will return to Paris together. What do you say to this arrangement?" "You have come at a good moment," I remarked; "there is plenty of excitement at the hotel?*-1 and I related to him the story of the robbery. His eyes sparkled with delight. "That will be glorious sport to witness," he laughed. "For you, perhaps, you heartless clear up the mystery." "It is useless to write to M. Goron," I replied. "Remember that this is beyond £is sphere of action; and* that with the work on his hands In Paris you cannot expect him to attend to crimes committed in the provinces." "I dare say you are right," groaned the old gentleman, "besides- " He stopped, and moved uneasily in his chair. " M . Guibert," he burst out rather suddenly, "I repeat, I am particularly anxious to lay my hands on the robber. Yet, at the same time, I dread disclosures that might—that might— possibly cause annoyance to the countess. My wife is young, very young, and inexperienced; aiul only too inclined to give her friendship to people of whom she knows very little. Look at that noisy crowd who follow her on her long rides or drives. Who are they? She made their acquaintance only since we came here. Some of the women of that set are as bad as the men. There is that Soudier always dangling after her. What is he? Who is he? Can one find that out? I have my reasons for asking you this." "I do not know the man any more than you do, but it will be easy to find out all about him through my Paris friends." "Please, M. Guibert, do this for me. I shall be deeply grateful." m "Frankly, do you think of him in ccmnection with the robbery?" "I suspect that whole fast gang, and feel certain one of them is the thief ''shouted, her face beaming with joy, her husband says, I gather she Is convinced that a stranger to the place committed the deed." "I have a theory," said Thibaut, "that the countess knows the thief, whom she does not want to compromise because " "Because she loves him,?" 1 "Yes.' "TheBe things do occur." "What about the man with the shaven upper lip? I have not seen him within the last few days." "No; but I have," Thibaut gazed at me intently for a few moments. "Goron," he cried eagerly, "you've discovered something. You have a clue. What is it?" "My dear Thibaut, you have halfguessed the truth. Yes, I scent a mystery, and I wish to clear it up; but not from professional pride. It is from a sense of duty, for, unless I step in, I foresee a disaster." "Is it as serious as that?" "It may become so. That is what I want to avoid." "Can I help you?" "Yes, by not asking me any questions, even^vhen I absent myself. Understand me well, Thibaut 1 must remain M. Guibert to the end. Nobedy, including M. Julien, must know I am Goron. An indiscreet word from you would defeat all my plans." "You can rely on me." "I know I can. When, as I hope, I shall have brought my task to a satisfactory ending you shall know all the details of the case. This much I will tell you. The necklace has mysteriously disappeared; I shall try to have it spirited back in the same mysterious way." A week after the foregoing conversation a cab drove up at the door of the hotel. Thibaut's and my luggage was hoisted on the top; and we shook" hands with some of the guests, including the count, who witnessed our departure for Paris. Half-way to the station.we met the countess on her bicycle, some 50 yards ahead of her party. "Bon voyage, M. Guibert!" she ment~you bnyour"perspicacity^ May I ask what your profession is?" "I am a commission a? " "Well," he laughed, "y^u >Ia have made a fine detective." . "You are very kind. But for everybody's sake it will be well not to mention thiB aifair." The count nodded assent After the spy incident the count.became very friendly and talked freely to me*on many subjects. The countess undoubtedly neglected her husband. Visitors kept pouring in, many of them members of the so-called "smart set." I did not like the appearance of several of the newcomers, and I was glad my cure was drawing to an end. Then a remarkable incident occurred? The countess had gone on one of her excursions with her male and female followers, the organizer of the party, as usual, being Rene Soudier. Bright, witty, excelling in all sports, Soud'tr was adored by the women and popular with the men, except with the count. The latter disliked him cor. dially, and rarely or- never spoke to him. The party had left after luncheon, and was not expected bsck before 7 o'clock. At three in the afternoon, as I returned from a walk, I saw the count walking up and down in front of the hotel. Something evidently had gone wrong. The moment he saw me he gripped my arm and led me to a secluded /spot in the garden. " M . jSfuibert," he began in an excitedVone which he tried hard to control? " M . Guibert, you proved yourself very ahrewd when you dealt with that ussian girl. Allow me to apply to you for advice. Mv wife's pearl necklace has been stolen. Do you mind accompanying; me up-staira?" The apartments the,couht occupied in the hotel consisted of a drawingjuom, his and his wife's bedroom, and their two dressing-rooms. Marfa, the countess' maid/slept at the end of the passage on the same floor, Tlie cou£t hatred of him and his desire to die him with the robbery rather told against the former, and gave rise to ugly presumptions. 1 am, however, s* you know, a pretty good reader of character, and 1 did not believe the count capable of a villany. There remained the countess, with whom during my stay at the hotel I had not exchanged half a dozen words. Do you. remember my three days' absence?"* "Yes; I guessed you had gone tt> Paris." "You guessed right. I arrived there in the early morning, and two hours later I knew that the countess' father; a broken-down absinthe-drinker, was* clerk to a money-changer and moneylender in the Boulevard St. Martin, who was once seriously compromised, in a case of stolen bonds. I k took a cab, and slowly drove past the place* when I saw our friend with Ahe shaven upper lip emerge from the office, «. small traveling-bag in his hand, and jump on a 'bus. His name, I was told at the hotel, is Ballu. I did not hesitate a second. I had seen through the window that the principal's private room at the back was empty, and that in the office were only a young maa behind a desk and a girl at a typewriter. I went in and asked for M . S. , the countess' father. " l i e has left us,' said the'clerk. "Returning to the station, I saw Ballu on the platform, and, unseen br him, we both arrived at the hotel at the same time. "I had already noticed that although Ballu and the countess never exchanged a word when others were present, their eyes often met, and when on the night of my return we sat down at the table d'hote a hardlr perceptible sign passed between them. Keeping them both well in sight, I saw Ballu at 9 o'clock stroll toward the end of the garden. He disappeared in the darkness, but I felt sure he had gone to the little summer-hous© facing the tepnis-lawn. "f soon arrived at the back of the little wooden structure, and felt relieved when I heard some one move inside. Half an hour later there came a light step. It was the countess. »Tbeir conversation, carried on in whisperB, did not last many minutes. Ballu's voice sounded hard, almost threatening, while that of the countess was imploring. Although I could not catch every word they said, I heard quite enough to be able to reconstruct the whole case. The moment to act had arrivee d. "The fstlowing morning as the futrntess crossed the haJJ~l walked up T h e p o o r l a d y s a t m o t i o n l e s s H e r v e r y l i p s t u r n e d w h -i t e . man, but not for the count and countess." Having dressed for dinner, we found the guests in the hall eagerly discussing the aifair, trying to extract particulars from the waiters and chambermaids. A11A at once there was a hush, for the door of the manager's room opened, and out came the count and his wife followed by a stout, redfaced, short man with gray whiskers. "That's M . Julien, the police commissary," some one said behind me. "I wonder," whispered Thibaut, "how that M. Julien will set to work?" "3o do I. With your permission, however, I shall remain in the background. M . Julien, fortunately, does not know me, but one of his subordinates might; and I do not want to depart from my position of spectator. This is M . Julien'a domajn. I also see new faces* Look at that close-shaven youth with the flower in Ibis buttonhole. Do you notice anything particular about him?" "No, I don't. "Look again. "I see nothing except that he gives me the impression of being a cad." -, "Watch his mouth." "Well, he seems to want with his teeth to catch something on his upper lip." "Yes, his moustache. It must have been there quite recently, and he la not yet accustomed to its absence." "It seems strange." "This may not be of any importance, but If I Were M . Julien I should take note of i t " ~ For two days I heard no news about {tie robbery, and was wondering how things .were progressing? when r was •* I hinted at this to M . Julien, but he apparently thinks that well-dresBed ladies and gentlemen cannot commit crimes." The next morning we heard that M . Julien was looking for a man, a waiter, discharged from the hotel for dishonesty, who, on the afternoon of the robbery, had been seen loitering near the house. He had since disappeared; and, as be had been on friendly terms with Marfa, M. Julien would certainly have arrested the girl if the countess had not interposed and vouched for her innocence, * In accordance with my promise to the count I had written to Paris, and the reply I received concerning Soudier was: "Heavily in debt. Loose morals. Raises money wherever he can." When I communicated this to the count his eyes lit up with a cruel fire. "This confirms my suspicions, M . Guibert. Remember my words—Soudier i s the thief." Thibaut was waiting for me downstairs. "Affairs seem at a standstill," be remarked to me. "Very much so. M . Julien is obstinate. He keeps a close watch on Btarfa, and in the meantime he is searching for a poor devil of a waiter. The count is jealous, and would, if he could, at once clap the handcuffs on the fascinating Soudier. The guests eye one another suspiciously, and so do the hotel officials. What a ghastly mess they are making of this business!" * "And* the countess? You don't mention her. What does she say?" I have not exchanged a word with aroused i n the morning by * loud Uier on the matter. But from what and threw a rose into our carriage. I placed It in my buttonhole and gave a sigh of relief. "I suppose that sigh has something t d , do with the case," said £iy observant friend. We had the complement to ourselves, and the train was scarcely out of the station when Thibaut called out: "And now please tell me all that occurred. You, too. must be anxious to unbosom yourself," he. added with a mischievous smile. "Oh, I shall conceal nothing. But, although I did not act in an official capacity, the story is of a delicate nature and I must request you not to divulge i t " "I give you my word." "It is a strange business, and was even deeper than I conjectured. The f. . t thing that struck me as odd, when the count took me to his wife's dressing-room, was that forced lock of the dressing-bag; I wondered who the lutlAtlc thief could be wbo lost .precious time over that lock, when, with nn ordinary penknife, he could have cut the leather in less than a minute. "You will, however, understand my diflculty, not having had charge of the case, and not having been-—like the police commissary—able to Investigate closely and question those likely to throw light upon the matter. I had to be guided partly by reasoning, partly by intuition; and the Inferences I drew were that the necklace had not been stolen, and that either the count or the countess—possibly both—had reasons for spreading that story of the robbefjrr "J assure you I never for an instant suspected Soudier; and the count's to her and said: " 'Please go to the library. I want to speak to you at once.' "She gave me a look of surprise and fear, and entered the room. " M a d a m e : I said, 'to you and yon alone I. will divulge who I am. I am M.

My object is to help you. know your father has appropriated— or is accused of having done so— money belonging to his employer, M . 11 . 1 know* you wanted to save him, and, not having the ready cash, you handed to M.

VERDIER'S B I L L . NITIATIVE A N D R E F E R E N D U M MAY WORK FOR LIQUOR M E N . View of the Matters of Moat Interest Which the Legislature Will Take Under Consideration at Once. [By Gurd M . Hayes.] Senator Leonard Verdier of Grand Rapids, who introduced the bill placing all state employes under civil' service, has the hearty co-operation and support of every man and woman now Dn the state pay roll. Whether it is a commendable bit of legislation seems ;o depend on one's position and political affiliations in Lansing. The father of this bill realizes that he has a vast army of volunteer lobbyists right on the job and this influence is bound to i>e felt. Whether it is given immediate • effect involves some question, but the ; passage of a civil service bill is conj ceded by every one in the legislature. "I am for civil service, but it should be made broad enough to eliminate parasites and dead ones at any time," sa]d Governor Ferris. "I haven't seen the bill," continued the governor in speaking of Senator Verdier's measure, "but 1 am for civil service. But at the same time I do not believe that it should be so drawn nor construed as to offer protection to political soft shelled crabs. It must be based on efficiency and political expediency should not be considered. Broaden Home Rule Bill. it) broaden the powers of the home rule bill and eliminate many of the objectionable features in the law is the object of a bill introduced in the upper house by Senator Verdier. It also paves the way for municipal ownership of public utilities. Under the Verdier bill cities may take advantage of the progressive fea- No Sale.

Mortgage Tax Law. Rep. A. H . Catlin, of Ingham, has introduced a bill to repeal the present mortgage tax law and place the taxation of mortgages on the old basis. The bill, lf~tThecomes a law, will not, however, affect the mortgages taxed under the specific system, as it cannot be made retroactive in the opinion of the attorney general who has been consulted in reference to the bill. Hep. Catlin says there is a great deal of sentiment in favor of repealing the present law, with which many state officials have found considerable fault. The Liquor Question. . Some of the so-called "dry" leaders in the legislature are wondering whether the initiative and referendum will militate in favor of the liquor interests of the state if ,this constitutional amendment is passed by the legislature and adopted by the people at the general election in 1914. -.Many of the statesmen who are apparently in favor of the initiative arid referendum are opposed to the domination of the'liquorc men in state affairs, but the rumor has reached Lansing to the sffect that the liquor men are preparing to use the initiative and referendum as an instrument to repeal the local option law, has caused some of the hearty advocates of this measure to stop and think. One man who is known to be in close touch with the liquor interests of the state is reported as saying that, given the initiative and referendum, the people will be given an opportunity to repeal the local option law that makes the county the unit on the wet and dry question, and that the foreign element in the cities would be sufficient to awing the question in favor of the wets. Ask for $400,000. Rep. Foote, of Kent, put in apropNation bills for the Jackson state prison calling for upwards of $400,000. These include $76,181 for rebuilding the caninng factory at the prison and $100,000 for a new cell block. For maintenance $324,077 is the figure and other expenses aside from the new cannery estimate. This includes $62,- 000 additional state reward fund and $100,000 fo> the purchase of farm land and $25,000 for farm buildings and the employment of prison labor. Cigarette Bill. If Rep. bunn, of Sanilac, and Rep. Bricker, of Ionia, have their way about It, there will be no more "paper pipes" sold in Michigan, as each of these members have introduced drastic anticigarette bills. At nearly every session some one puts in a measure placing the ban on the manufacture cud sale of cigarettes, but as a general rule the bill seldom gets beyond the committee stage. It is thought that there is but little chance of either bill passing. Proposes Swiss Election System. Rep. Kappler, of Houghton county, has introduced two proposals in the lower house that are considered somewhat revolutionary in their character. Both are concurrent resolutions. The first and most important of these is designed to establish an entirely new system of legislative representation in Michigan and is based on the representative system in vogue in Switzerland where the initiative and referendum came from. It will provide that the members of the house and senate be elected in accordance with the percentage of the vote. The resolution of course is to submit the necessary constitutional amendment to the people and it will be followed by a bill working out the details of the plan. Under this proposal districts will be established in which the representatives will be chosen by the percentage system. If two-thirds of the people vote the republican ticket and the district is entitled to three representatives, the republicans will have two of the three and if the democrats represent the other third they will have the third member, the vote to be at large in each district. Rep. Kappler declares the present system disfranchises the minority party no matter how close they come to winning and sees his plan as the only fair solution of the problem. The second resolution presented by Kappler is addressed to congress and urges the necessary constitutional and statutory amendments to provide for the convening of the incoming congress and administration with the first day of January of the year following the election. Kappler sees no reason why congress should hold over for more than six months after its defeat by the people. The Trunk Line Roads. Going deeper into the idea of trunk line statS^-oads, Senator Alswede, of Bay county, finds that such a large proportion of the original trunk line highway route is already improved and that he can add another north and south line to the original proposal and still remain in the $',000,000 appropriation. To this end, he has outlined a third or east coast line road from Detroit through Flint, Saginaw, Tawas, A l - pena, Cheboygan to Mackinac. With this road he will have three north and south lines, one on tb^ a n t r a l mo ri4- an and another on the west shore starting at Niles and following the Lake Michigan coast. The cross state line is from Detroit to St. Jospeh. The proposal calls for a total of 1,300 miles, of which 300 already is improved, b l o w i n g $2,d00 per mile and using convict labor Senator A l - swede says the work can be kept within the $2,000,000 appropriation that represents one-half of the automobile ^ S E E N A N D H E A R D I N M I C H I G A N J Detroit. — Fifty members of the Michigan State Millers' association attended the opening convention session of the organization at the chamber of commerce.

Morrice.—The Wallace schoolhouse. which stands between Perry and Shaftsburg, was found to be on fire from the Interior. Edward Hath saw a light in the schoolhouse and investigated. A general alarm was turned in and the building waa saved. The teacher's desk, books and chair were destroyed and a hole burned in the floor, which tipped ove? the stove. There will be no school until the insurance agent can adjust the loss, and the building repaired.

Because of the fact that the senate is slow about reporting out the appointment of John T. Winship, who was the selection for Governor Ferris as insurance commissioner to succeed C. A. Palmer the first of next July, some of the democrats in the legislature are inclined to the belief that the republicans are simply playing a smooth game to rob them of some of the patronage. Senator .Verdeer* has already intrc*' duced a bill putting all state employes on a civil service basis. Governor Ferris is known to favor such a measure, and the democratic state platform i9: pledged to support such a bill. Howerer, Verdier's bill carries an appropriation clause that gives it immediate effect, and inasmuch as it further provides that all the present employes shall be retained, the democrats will have few jobs to distribute. It makes little difference whether or not the senate confirms Winship's appointment, as the governor will be able to put him in Palmer's place after the legislature has adjourned. A Political Squall. Some of the members of the legislature are objecting to the selection of the temporary chairman of the republican state convention to be held in Lansing, February 11, and announce that they will protest against Allan Frazer from the floor of the convention. With two exceptions every republican in the legislature signed a petition asking the state central committee to name Senator W. Frank • James, of Hancock, as the presiding officer, and the belligerent statesmen announce that they want either Chase S. Osborn or Senator James. ^""kee, Clyde Leavitt of Ottawa, Can.; - - W i l l i a m G. Howard of Albany, W i l l i a m - L ^ ^ uqar—imure.

Rioting has broken out a l \ over Constantinople, many persons have been killed and more wounded following fae assasslnation-of Nazim Pasha, com mander of the Turkish army, during the demonstration against the declaration of peace with the Balkan states and the cession of Adrianople. The new TurkiBh cabinet, organized on the resignation of the peace cabinet which voted to comply with the demands of the Balkan allies, has instructed the peace delegates in Lon- j srrfption~last ^ don to return to Constantinople. The Ottoman ambassadors at Vienna and St. Petersburg have also been recalled. Enver Bey, the most spirited leader of the Young Turks, was appointed chief of the general staff of the army, to succeed Nazim Pasha. Nazim Pasha was shot add killed from a window by Enver Bey and Talatt Bey after Nazim's aide-de-camp had opened fire at the new leaders. He was nearly 60 a^nd was characterized" as the best conmmander-in-chief Turkey possessed in recent times. He was minister of war in the first Kiamil cabinet. The crisis in the affairs of the empire came as the result of the cabinjet's proposal to buy peace with the Balkan states by turning over Adrianople and the Aegean islands. It was against the sacrifice of Adrianople, the ancient Turkish capital, that the people rebelled. T H E M A R K E T S .

Often before a sufferer realizes what tbe trouble is, he is on the verge of a complete nervous breakdown. It is of the utmost importance to keep your nervous system in good condition, as the nerves are the source of all bodily power. Mrs. Anna Kounz, 21 x Mechanic St., Pueblo, Colo., says: "For many years I suffered from nervous prostration; I was unable to do any house work and doctors « fajled to help me. Remedies I tried from 'druggists did not do » f a particle of good. A neighbor told my husband about D r . M i l e e ' N e r v i n e * and he procured a bottle. After the first few doses I showed a marked improvement and after taking two - bottles I was entirely cured. I have been perfectly well for years and cannot praise D r . Miles* Nervine too highly." If you are troubled with loss o f appetite, poor digestion, weakness, inability to sleep; if you are i n a general run down condition and unable to bear your pari of the daily grind of life, you need some* thing to strengthen your nerves. You may not realize what is the mat* tcr with you, but that is no reason why you should delay treatment D r . M i W N e r v i n e has proven its iblue in nervous diaordera for thirty years, and merits a trial, no matter W w many other wjnedics have failed ^ heljrAyou, ftfo to MifiMt your money It mutr m i o i o a l 0 ¾ ~ m V •(, Note Extra information that can be shown with the item.
