Washington—An amendment to the ship subsidy bill, imposing a fine of $10,000 on any ship of whatever registry on which liquor is sold on a voyage starting or ending at an American port, has been presented to Republican members of the house merchant marine committee. Proposed as a substitute for an amendment offered by Representative Benkhead of Alabama which would deny any part of the subsidy to ships selling liquor, the amendment provides that upon Imposition of a second $10,000 fine the particular ship would not be permitted to enter an American port. Indications were given at the treasury that Attorney General Daugherty would be asked to rule whether ships under the American flag but beyond the three-mile limit were subject to the prohibition amendment and the Volstead act.

Mr. Cooper added that the shipping board "has no more right to permit liquor to be sold on government owned ships operating under the American flag than the moonshiner and bootlegger at home has to dispense his whisky and raisin juice."

Says Operators Will Confer Cincinnati, O.—Frank Farrington, president* of the United Mine Workers of Illinois, stated, when informed of a statement that Illinois coal operators had definitely refused to enter into a conference with the operators of other states looking toward a settlement of the national coal strike, that he believed the "Illinois operators would go along with any reasonable plan for the settlement of the strike." LaPollette Attacks Court Decision Washington—Declaring that the supreme court decision in the Coronado coal case was the "most ominous in what it foreshadows for the future of union labor in this country," Senator La Follette, Republican, Wisconsin, issued a statement in which he criticised the court. The opinion, he stated was "significant because of what the court says on questions not involved in the case rather than because of anything that is actually decided." 235363 Widows In Paris. Paris—in Paris there are 235,868 widows and 50,892 widowers. These figures, which have been extracted from the recent census returns, show more clearly than anything else could do what the war cost the French capital. Among the unwed, too, there is a majority of 100,000 women out of a total of both sexes of 1,200,000. Men who have been divorced by their wives number 16,700, while divorced women living in the capital total the much blgg«r figure of 28,700. Industrial and financial conditions. in the last week presented a generally favorable aspect, notwithstanding; the reactionary tendency in the securities market which apparently waa connected with the technical speculative position. Steel production exceeded the best rate previously attained this year. More coke plants were started and more blast furnaces blown In. Coal production was greater and some observers believe that plants were la preparation for reopening union mines in the Pittsburgh district. Railroad car loading figures continued good June 17. Although the absolute number reported during the week ended June 3 was smaller than in the previous week, the rate waa higher If allowance be made for the Memorial day holiday. A similar calculation showed that the gain in the absolute amount of cotton consumed by mills during May as compared with April was not accounted for by the greater number of working days in the latter month. May's takings corresponded almost exactly to the average for the last 10 months, which, in turn, were 23 per cent greater than those in the corresponding period a year ago. The week which brought unusually large financial transactions by the* treasury passed witfcoot any disturbances in the money market These transactions which centered on June 15 Included the collection of $800,000,- 000 in income taxes, the payment of $125,000,000 in interest on Libertybonds, the paying off of $380,000,000 in Victory notes and the flotation of $250,000,000 in new certificates.

TAfllFF BILL MAY i BE SPEEDED UP •ENATK DEMOCRATS LETTING UP IN DEBATE AND MEASURE MAY PASS IN JULY. CONFERENCE WILL BE LONG President Harding Still Urging Ship Subsidy Legislation, Whioh Many .Republican Leaders Think It Would B« Good Policy to Enact. By EDWARD B. CLARK Washington.—The senate Is still laboring with the tariff MIL Within a few days the Kepubllcan leaders seemingly have found some cheer in the situation which has been gloomy, for 22»ey are predicting that the bill will become a law in July. It is true that the Democrats of the senate are showing some inclination to Tet up a little in debate, thus giving the opposition purty the feeling that the Fordney-McCumber bill may become a law earlier than a week or two ago It was thought possible. There are obstacles, however, in the way of even a fairly quick passage of the customs measure, obstacles which have nothing to do with Democratic opposition to the schedules as they are written. It may be an old story now, but again let it be said that the majority in the senate has proposed more than 2,000 amendments to the tariff bill as the majority in the house gave It its sanction. Even with the possibility of cloture proceedings, which will limit debate In the senate, there necessarily will be some difficulty in straightening out the differences of opinion between the two houses of congress. When the bill passes the senate a conference committee to meet a like committee of the house will be appointed. The deliberations of this Joint committee are likely to be long drawn out. President Urges Ship Subsidy. President Harding desires that certain legislation other than the tariff ehall be enacted by the present congress. He has been urging the leaders of his party to press the so-cniled ahlp subsidy bill to passage. It definitely is known that a good many of the administration leaders think that subsidy legislation is as Important to purty success as tariff legislation. They say : "Something must be done for the ships or nothing can be done with the ships," President Harding seemingly is heart-bound to subsidy legislation. His interest In the subject through the years has been set forth In the press >trom time to time. Seemingly the President saw an opportunity In the present merchant marine circumstances to strike for something In which be has believed. Therefore he urged congress and still Is urging It to care for the merchant marine through legislation, and there is a feeling that the Republican leaders may conclude to put the bill through the house this summer and to promise that the senate will care for It next winter. If the subsidy hill Is to be given consideration by the house of representatives It will not mean necessarily that congress will have to sit long after the tariff is passed, unless of course the senate determines also to give consideration to the merchant marine measure. The house soon wilt •rdjourn for three days at a time, waiting on senate action on the tariff bill. Of course, if the bouse is so inclined It need not take these threeday adjournments, but can, under the direction of the majority, go to work" a t ship subsidy. Why Democrats Are Cheerful. The Democrats are cheerful today over the November prospect They say that the country seems to like President Harding, but that the country does not like the Republican congress. It is true, apparently, If one may Judge by what both Democrats and Republicans here say, that the President stands better with the country than his party's majority In congress stands. Therefore, It may be that the Republican majority In congress, recognizing the fact, may yield to the President desire that legislation other than the tariff shall be enacted at the present session, at least by the house of representatives. Bonus legislation still is in abeyance. The country knows, of course, that the President has desired one thing and that the party leaders In house and senate have desired another thing. Recently there have been indications that there may be in the senate a combination of Democrats and Republicans to put through bonus legislation of a kind to which a large body of the Republican senators are opposed. What the President will do with this legislation when It reaches him for signature depends largely, of course, upon the form which it takes. Some of the Democrats are as anxious for an early adjournment as are the Republicans. For the main part, however, the Democrats who wish to s e t away are those whose seats are conceded to be In danger next November. It would appear as if the majority of the Democrats would like to keep congress In session as long as possible, because a long session will add to the appearance of Inggardness on the part of the Republican majority. Icebergs and Derelicts Abound. Reports come to Washington of the appearance of Icebergs in the northern seas, and with these reports are others concerning derelicts, ships which have been abandoned at sea and which are a menace to navigation. The great war and Its disasters have not swept from the memory of the government officials the sinking ten years ago of the Titanic, an accident of the sea which was accompanied by such a terrible loss of life. Means are taken today to guard the ocean liners against the dangers of Icebergs and the derelicts. Within a circle of flowering bushes near the White House there la a fountain which la a reminder of the Titanic disaster. It was erected in memory of Maj. Archibald W. Butt, President Tail's aide, and to that of Francis D. Millet, the artist. Butt's friend and companion on the voyage. The two men whose lives and deathB are thus commemorated went to their fate heroically after, like nearly every other man on the LU-fated vessel, having helped the women and children Into life boats to see them off to safety. After the close of the war certain parts of the seas were swept to pick up floating mines. In one or two places this work Is still going on, for some little danger remains to navigation from these black explosives of the depths. So far as the matter of derelicts is concerned, it is known that the reports show that scores of them are floating about the seas in the various parts of the world. Government vessels virtually all the time are seeking derelicts for the purpose of destroying them, but it Beeius that as fast as one is destroyed another takes itb place. Derelict Worse Than Iceberg. Vessels always are being deserted at sea by their crews when It seems that sinking is Imminent. There Is never much of an Increase In the number of derelicts. It stays about the same year In and year out. The derelict la as much of a danger to navigation as an iceberg, and perhaps more so, because It is apt to get In the way of ships at every season of the year, while Icebergs are a danger, ordinarily, only for about six weeks. The usual time of the Iceberg menace Is In late May ..nd June, but occasionally they break loose from their "moorings" much earlier than usual. This was the case in the year when the Titanic went to its doom southeast of Cape Race. Transatlantic passengers are not always told how close they pass to danger. Sometimes, however, they discover their escapes for themselves. A letter received a few days ago by the writer from a friend abroad says hat the ship upon which the voyager took passage to Europe passed within 200 feet of an iceberg which was discovered only when the fog suddenly lifted. Narrow Escape for Big Liner. Not long ago one great steamship eastward bound passed a derelict In the night, and escaped hitting it by a margin of less than 300 feet. The der» ellct was seen by a man on the bridge In the darkness of the night. The voyagers learned of their narrow escape only by an oversight of the captain of the ship. As i. ion as the derelict had been passed he ordered wireless messages to be sent to warn other steamships In the s-.me line of commerce that a derelict was in their path. It Is the custom of passenger steamers to have wireless messages of greeting sent by passing steamers posted on the bulletin board at the head of the mnin companionway. The day after the derelict had been passed one of these messages was posted, the officers of the ship overlooking the fact that after the usunl greetings the captain of the passing vessel thanked his fellow captain for warning him of the derelict which his ship had passed the night previous. In the United States navy a good many years ago there was a vessel called the Vesuvius. It carried dynamite guns. It is now out of commission. The first opportunity which the Vesuvius had to test Its guns while on an actual voyage and to learn Just what could be done with ordnance which fired dynamite under methods now dead and gone came when a derelict was encountered on the high seas. The abandoned vessel, which was of course a menace to navigation, was a lumber-laden schooner. The government ship blew It up, but lumber will not sink, and following the "attack" on the derelict the surface of the sea for a considerable distance looked like the "floorway" of a lumber yard. However, the scattered fragments were "no longer a menace tc the ships that passed In the night. What Willie Said.

IDAS OF THE MODOCS ONE April day in 1873 a party of 70 soldiers commanded by Capt. Evan Thomas suddenly found themselves In a death trap In the lava beds of northern California. Within a few minutes the murderous fire from a hidden enemy had disabled more than half of the command. As suddenly as the Indian fire had begun, it stopped and the survivors heard a voice shouting to them: "You who are not dead had better go home; we don't want to kill you all In one day!" It was the voice of Scar Face Charley, the leader of a Modoc war party. With a force of only 21 warriors he had billed 82 and wounded 18 of the soldiers. Wearied of the slaughter, he allowed- the remainder to escape. Afterwards he said: "My heart was sick at seeing so many men killed." The career of Scar Face Charley (Cnlkchlkam Lupalkuelatko— "Wagon Scar Faced"), called the "Leonldas of the Lava Beds," in the Modoc war, was one of strange contrasts. At the opening of the conflict he had visited the homes of many settlers and, warning them that war was coming, told them to stay quietly In their homes and the Modocs would not molest them. He had fired the opening gun of the war when soldiers "Jumped" the Modoc camp In November, 1872. When Captain Jack, the chief, want, ed to make peace Charley was one of the warriors who taunted him and forced him to continue fighting. Theu he protested against the murder of General Canby and Doctor Thomas calling It "unworthy of the heart of a Modoc." When he .saw that the Modoc cause was hopeless he surrendered to the military and enlisted as a scout. One night Black Jim and Curly- Headed Doctor, two of the most warlike Modocs, denounced him as a traitor and threatened to kill him. Walking over to the fire and standing there In the full blaze of the burning logs, he said : "Men, put on some more wood for I want Black Jim and the Doctor to have a good light to shoot me by.' His bluff was not called. Charley continued in the service ot the soldiers until they had run Captain Jack to earth. When the chief and five others were tried before a military court for murdering the peace commissioners, lie was one of the witnesses who spoke most earnestly in behalf of the condemned men. At the close of the Modoc war Charley with his people, as military prisoners were deported to Oklahoma where the "Wagon Scarfaced" died December 3, 1896. New highways are being built between Peking and Tien-Tsin, China, by 10.000 laborers fed out of the American famine relief fund. CHIEF QUANAH PARKER, ' T H E WHITE COMANCHE ON FEBRUARY 23, 1911, Chief Quanah Parker lay dying in his home, the "White House of the Comanches" near Cache, Okla. When a white doctor had failed to save his life, Quasel, the medicine man, entered. Placing his arm about the dying chief, Quasel flapped his hands and Imitated the call of the Great Eagle, the messenger of the Great Spirit. "Father in Heaven, this our brother is coming," he prayed. A moment later, Quanah, the son of a white mother, a chief who had lived the white man's way for 35 years, died an Indian. Quanah's mother was Cynthia Ann Parker, a white woman who had been captured by his father Nokonl, "The Wanderer," In 1835, when she was only twelve years old. She bore lilm three children, two sons and a daughter A son born In 1845 was given the name! Kwalnl, "fragrant." When friends of the Parker family visited the Comanche camp to persuade her to return to civilization she said, "I am happy with my husband and children. I have no desire to be anything but an Indian." In 1860 Texas Rangers under Gov. L. S. Ross attacked the Comanche camp, killed Nokonl and captured Cynthia Ann Parker and her twoyear- old daughter. The sons escaped When the "White Indian" was restored to her people, it brought her no Joy for she mourned Incessantly for the Indian camp and especially for ber sons. Soon afterwards, during a council with the Comanches, pome army officers told young Quanah, or Kwalna, that his mother was still alive and they tried to induce bim to make his home with ber. It was In vain. The boy had never known anything but Indian life. In 1864 Cyntbla Ann Parker died, still mourning for her son. Quanah rose to the position of war chief of the Comanches and in the war with the Southern Plains tribes In 1874 be was the last to surrender. When he did be encouraged his people In traveling the white man's road. In his last years Quanah brought bis mother's body from Texas and buried It near his home. Then he worked unceasingly to have a suitable memorial erected over the grave. Finally congress appropriated $1,000 for that purpose and two weeks before Quanah died the monument was built. The body of Quanah, the cblef of the Comanches, was buried nearby, and the white mother and her Indian son were reunited at last.

Perry In his home at 1310 Caiiowhill street, Philadelphia, by a man who had come in to see about securing a patent, did not cause any sensation at the time, for the coroner's jury gave a speedy verdict of "death from accidental causes," There was clear evidence that some sort of an explosion had taken place. A shuttered bottle which had manifestly contained some sort of Inflammable material, a broken plo*» tilled with partly burned tobacco and a charred match, lay beside the body. An autojisy showed that Perry had died from congestion of the lungs caused by the inhaling of, flames or rhloroform, the latter having presumably formed the contents of the broken bottle. So, as there were no claimants for the body and no estate, Perry's remains were Interred in the Potter's field. There they would have remained undisturbed If It bad not been for the evidence of a convict in the St. Louis prison. Shortly after Perry's death, the Philadelphia branch of the Fidelity Insurance company received a letter from Jepbtha i>. Howe, an attorney In St. Louis, stating that "B. F. Perry" was really Benjamin F. Pitezel, who had carried a $10,000 life insurance with the Fidelity company. The only person who could be found to Identify the body \^as a man named H. H. Holmes, of Wiimette, 111., who willingly came to Philadelphia to superintend the exhuming of the body. Holmes and Howe met In the office of the company, presumably as strangers, and the former clearly identified the body of the dead man as thut of his friend, I'ltezel. Satisfied, the insurance company paid the insurance to Howe, Pitezel's attorney, ami reimbursed Holmes for his excuses. The details of the case were reported in the St. Louis newspupers, and a few days later, Marion lledgspeth, a convict serving a sentence for train robbery, informed the governor of the prison thai he would like to give him some information which he considered most importunt. "If you will exumine the records of the prison," said Hedgspeth, "you will find thut there wus a man here lust summer by the name of H. H. Howard. He was In for fraud, I think, but wus released on bail. While he wus here. Howard asked me if I knew any lawyer whom 1 could recommend In connection with a swindling scheme which he had in mind—a plan which ought to net at least $10,000 without any trouble, He promised me $500 for my information and 1 gave him the lawyer's name, but I never got my five hundred." "The name of the lawyer I recommended to 'Howard" was .Tephtha D. Howe nnd 'Howard' Is undoubtedly the man named Holmes who is mixed up with thut Insurance case In Philadelphia! The details of the case agree exactly with the scheme, as Howard outlined It to me last summer." As soon as this Information reached Philadelphia, the insurance company, detailed an experienced detective named (ieyer to arrest Holmes und to investigate his antecedents, for it was clear that Pitezel had not met his death through accident, but had been deliberately murdered. After a month's search, Holmes was traced to New England and finally arrested. Tills, however, proved to be practically the beginning of the case for, the further back (Jeyer went Into Holmes' history, the more gruesome detulls he discovered. In endeavoring to find out what had become of Mrs. Pitezel and her five children, Geyer found in the cellar of a house In Toronto—a house rented by Holmes under the name of Canning—the bodies of two children later identified as Alice and Etta Pitezel. From Toronto tne trail led to Indianapolis, by way of Detroit and Cincinnati, and it was in Indianapolis that (Jeyer discovered the body of Howard Pitezel, aged ten. jammed Into the chimney of the furnace in a house which had been rented some time before by a man who answered to the description of Holmes. It was in the course of his search through Indiana and Illinois that (ieyer came upon the most startling discovery of the entire case—the mysterious building in Chicago known ns "Holmes' Castle" or "Holmehurst." The prisoner had personally superintended the erection of thft structure and investigation proved that It contained an air-proof, sound-proof vault, communicating with the cellar by means of a secret staircase. Burled In the cellar floor and half-consumed by quicklime were found the remains of at least Ave persons who had been lured to Holmehurst and there murdered. Alt of these crimes had been committed some time before the Pitezel af- ^falr, and had it not been for the fact that Holmes overlooked the promise which he had made to a convict in the St. Louis prison, It is quite possible that he would have remained at liberty, a constant and deadly peril to everyone with whom he came in contact. But Detective Geyer returned to Philadelphia with more than enough evidence to secure conviction, and Holmes paid the penalty for his crime on the gallows.

They seemed to share a prime Joke that wanted to bubble up find over, yet held a restraint upon themselves that was eased by digs In one another's ribs, In lii'ighs when one stumbled or hiccoughed. But Hansen was stolid as ever, and Qie hunters had evidently not sliared the stolen liquor, Only Demlng's eyes roved over the group of men as they gathered round for their cups and pannikins of food. He seemed to be calculating what advantage he could gain out of this unexpected happening. Peggy Slmms, under cover of pouring the coffee, sweetened heavily with condensed milk, found time to speak to Ralney. "They're all drunk." she said. "Not all of them. Here comes Lund. He'll handle It." Lund soemed still pondering the problem of the floe. At first he did not notice the condition of the sailors. Then he apparently Ignored It. But, after they had eaten, he talked to all the men. "Two more cars of It, lads, and we're througk The beach is nigh cleared. We elu glt out of the floe to blue water easy enough, an' we'll glt a good start on the patrol-ship. We'll go back with full pockets an' heavy ones. The shares'll be half as large again w we've figgered. I wouldn't wonder if they averaged sixteen or sev^Lteen thousand dollars apiece." Ralney had picked out a black-bearded Finn as the leader of the sailors In their debauch. The liquor seemed to have unchained In him a spirit of revolt that bordered on Insolence. He stood with his bowed legs apart, mlttened hands on hips, staring at Lund with a covert grin. ' Next to Lund he was the biggest tnan aboard. With the rum giving an onusual co-ordination to his usually sluggish nervous system, he promised to be a source of trouble. Ralney was surprised to see hlra Shrug his shoulders and lead the way to the beach. Perhaps breakfast had sobered them, though the fumes of liquor atllJ clung cloudily on the air. Lund went down, with Ralney beelde him, reporting Sandy. T i l work It out of 'em," satd Lund. •That boozell be an expensive luxury to >m. paid for in hard labor." They found the men ranged up in three groups. Demlng and Beale, against custom, had gone down to the beach. They were supposed to help clean the food utensils, and aid Tamada after a meal, besides replenishing' the fires. They stood a little away from the hunters and Hansen and the sailors. Tne Finn, talking to his comrades in t low growl, was with a separate group. • There was an air nf defiance manifest, a feeling of suspense In the tiny valley, backed by the frowning cone, ribbed by the two Icy promontories. Land surveyed them sharply. "What in h—'s the matter with janV be barked. "Hansen, send up s man for the drills an' shovels. Yore work's laid out: hop to It !H *We ain't go!n* to work no more,- said the Finn aggressively. "Not fo* no stch wage like you give.** •Oh, yon ain't ain't yonT Mocked Ltmd. He was standing with Ralney to tbe middle of the space they cleared ef gravel, the seamen lower down the beach, nearer the sea, their ranks compacted.

Not one of them knew the real value of their promised share. Money represented only counters exchanged for lodging, food and drink enough io make them sodden before they had spent even their usual wages. Then they would wake to find the rest gone, and throw themselves upon the selfish bounty of a boarding-house keeper. But they had seen the gold, they had bandied It, and they were Inflamed by a sens* of what It ought to do for then. Perhaps haJf of them could not add a simple sum, could not grasp figures beyond a thousand, at most And the sight of so much gold had made It In a m«nner, cheap. It was there, a heap of It and they wanted more of that shining heap than had been promised them. T o o talk big,- said the Finn. "Look my hands." He showed palms calloused, split swollen lumps of chilblalned flesh worn down and stiffened "I bin seaman, not navvy." Lund turned to the hunters. "You in on this?" he asked. Demlng and Beale moved off. Two of the others joined them. "Neutral?" sneered Lund. "HI remember that." Hansen and the two remaining came over beside Lund and Ralney. "Five of us," said Lund. "Five men against twelve fo'c'sle rata. I'll give you two mlnnits to start work." "You talk big with yore gun In pocket," said the Finn. "Me good man as you enny day." Lund's face turned dark with a burst of rage that exploded in voice and action. "You think I need my gun, do ye, you pack of rats? Then try It on without It." His hand slid to his holster inside hia heavy coat. His arm swung, there Lund's Face Turned Dark With a Burst of Rag* That Exploded In Voice and Action. was a streak of gleaming metal in the lifting sun-rays, flying over the heads of the seamen. It plunked In the free water beyond the ice. "Come on," roared Lund, "or HI rush you to the first bath you've had In five years." The Finn lowered his head, and charged; the rest followed their leader. The hot food had steadfed their motive control to a certain extent, they were firmer on their feet, loss vague of eye, but the crude alcohol still fumed in their brains. Without It they would never nave answered the Finn's call to rebellion. He had promised, and their drunken minds believed, that refusing in a mass to work would automatically halt things until they got their "rights," They had not expected an open fight The spur of alcohol had thrust them over the edge, given them a swifter flow of their impoverished blood, a temporary confidence in their own prowess, a mock valor that answered Lund's contemptuous challenge. Lund, thought Ralney, had done t fool-hardy thing in tossing away his gun. It was magnificent but it was not war. Pure bravado! But he had scant time for thinking. Lund tossed him a scrap of advice. "Keep movln'! Don't let 'em crowd you l" Then the fight was Joined. The girl leaned out from the promontory to watch the tourney. Tamada, Impassive as ever, tended his fires. Sandy crept down to the beach, drawn despite his will, and shuffled In and out, irresolute, too weak to attempt to mix in. but excited, eager to help. Deming, Beale and the two neutral hunters, stood to one side, waiting, perhaps, to see which way the fight went, reserves for the spparent victor. The Finn, best and biggest of the sailors, rushed for Lund, bis UtUe eyes ted with rage, craxy with desire to make good his boast that bo was as good as Lund. In his barbaric way he was somewhat of a dancer, and his legs were as lissome as his arms. He leaped, striking with fists and feet J-.und met him with a fierce uppercut short-traveled, sent from the hip. His enormous hand, bunched to a knuckly lump of stone, knocked the Finn over, lifting him, before be fell with his nose driven in, its bone shattered, his lips broken like overripe fruit, and his discolored teeth knocked out. He landed on his back, rolling over and over, to He still, half stunned, while two more sprang for Lund. Lund roared with surprise and pain as one caught his red beard and swung to i t smiting and kicking. He wrapped his left arm about the man, crushing him close np to him, and, as the other came, diving low, butting at his solar plexus, the giant gripped him by the collar, using bis own impetus, and brought the two skulls together with s thud that left them stunned. The two dropped from Lund's relaxed arms like sacks, and he stepped over them, alert poised on the balls of bis feet, letting out a shout of triumph, while he looked about him for his next adversary. The bedrock on which they fought was slippery where ice had formed in the crevices. Two seamen tackled Hansen. He stopped the curses of one with a straight punch to his mouth, but the man clung to his arm, bearing it down. Hansen swung at the other, and the blow went over the shoulder as he dodged, but Hansen got him In chancery, and the three, staggering, swearing, sliding, went down at last together, with Hansen underneath, twisting one's neck to shut off his wind while he warded off the wild blows of the second. With a wild heave he got on all fours, and then Lund, roaring like a bull as he came, tore off a seaman and flung him headlong. "Pound him, Hansen!" he shouted, his eyes hard with purpose, shining like Ice that reflects the sun, his nostrils wide, glorying In the fight. The Finn bad got himself together a bit, wiping the gouts of blood from his face and spitting out the snags of his broken teeth. He drew a knife from inside his shtrt, a long, curving blade, and sidled, like a crab, toward Lund, murder In his piggy, bloodshot eyes, waiting for a chance to slip in and stab Lund in the back, calling to a comrade to help him. "Come on," he called, "Olsen, wit' yore knife. Out the swine!" Another blade flashed out and the pair advanced, crouching, knees and bodies bent Lund backed away warily toward the opposite cliff, looking for loose rock fragment. He had forbidden knives to the sailors since the mutiny, and had forced a delivery, but these two had been bidden. A knife to the Finn was a natural accessory. Only bis drunken frenzy had made him try to beat Lund at his own game. One of the two hunters, lamed with a kick on the knee, howling with the pain, clinched savagely and bore the seaman down, battering his head against a knob of rock. The other friendly hunter had bashed and buffeted his opponent to submission. But Ralney was In hard case. A seaman, half Mexican, flew at hlra like a wildcat. Raiuey struck out, and his fists hit at the top of the breed's head without stopping him. Then he clinched. The Mexican was slippery as an eel. He got his arms free, his hands shot up, and his thumbs sought the Inner corners of Balney's eyes. The sudden, burning anguish was maddening and he drove bis clasped fists upward, wedging away the drilling fingers. Two hands clawed at his shoulders from behind. Someone sprang fairly on his back. A knee thrust against his spine. The agony left him helpless, the vertebrae seemed about to crack. Strength and will were shut off, and the world went black. And then one of the hunters catapulted Into the struggle, and the four of them went down in a maddened frenzy of blows and stifled shouts. The sailors fought like beasts, striving for blows barred by all codes of decency and fair play, intent to malm. Lund bad got his shoulders against the rocks and stood with open hands, watching the two with their knives, who crept In, foot by foot to make a finish. Peggy Slmms, a strand of her pale yellow hair whipped loose, flung It out of her eyes as she stood on the edge of the cliff, her lips apart, ber breasts rising stormily, watching; her features changing with the tide of battle as it surged beneath her, punctuated with muffled shouts and wind-clipped oatbs. She saw Lund at bay, and snatched out ber pistol. But the distance was too great She dared not trust her aim. Sandy, dancing in and out willing but helpless, bound by fear and lack of muscle, saw Deming, followed by Beale, stealing up the trait, unnoticed by the girl, who leaned far forward, watching the fight bar eyes on Lund and the rwo creeping closer with tfaeb knives, cautious hot determined. Tamada stood farther back and could not see them. The lad's wits, sharpened by his forecastle experience, surmised what Deming and Beale1 wore after as they gained the promontory flat and ra» toward the fires. "Heyl" he shrilled. "Look out| they're after the tools P Demlng's hsnd was stretched toward a shovel, its worn steel scoop sharp as a chisel. Beale was s few feet behind him. They were going to toss the shovels and drills down to the seamen. Tamada turned. His face did not change, but his eyes gleamed as he thrust a dippei In the steaming remnants of the pea soup snd flung the thick blistering mass fair In Demlng's face. At the same moment tfe* girl's pistol cracked 'with a stab of red flame. Beale dropped, shot In the neck, close to the collarbone, twisting like a scotched snake, rolling down the trail to the beach again. Deming, howling like a scorched devil, clawed with one hand at the sticky mass that masked him as be ran blind, wild with pain. He tripped, clutched, and lost his hold, slid on s plane of ley lava, smooth as glass, struck a buttress that sent him off st a tangent down the face of the el Iff, bounding from impact with an ontthrust elbow of the rock, whirling lata apace, Into the icy turmoil of the wa>ea, flooding into the inlet Peggy Slmms fled down the trail with a steel drill In either hand straignt across the beach toward Lund. The Finn turned on her with a snarl and a side swipe ot his knife, but she leaped aside, dodged the oth er slow-foot and thrust a drill ai Lund, who grasped it with a cry of exultation, swinging It over his bead as if It had been a bamboo. Hat sen had shaken off his men, and cams leaping In for fhe second drilL The knife fell tinkling on the froset rock as Lund smashed the wrist of th« Finn. The girl's gun made the second would-be slabber throw np his hands while Hansen snatched his weipon, flung It over the farther cliff, and knocked the seaman to the ground before he Joined Lund, tlar^lng th« rest, who fled before the sight of them and the threat of the bars of «feel. Lund laughed loud, and etopped striking, using the drill as a goad driving them Into a huddled borcte, like leaderless sheep, knee-deep, thigh-deep, Into the water, where thej stopped and begged ftw mercy whils Hansen turned to pat t finish to ths separate struggles. It ended as swiftly <*• U had begun One hunter could barely stand for his kicked knee, Ralney's back was strained and stiffening, Lund had lost a handful of his beard, and Qansen'i cheek was laid open. On the other side the casualties were more severe. Demlug was drowned, his body flung up by th» tide, rolling In the swash. Beale was coughing blood, though not dangerously woqnded. The Finn was crylnj over his broken wrist Ail the fight out of him. (TO BE CONTINUED.)

Judging from reports from druggists who are constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr. KilmeT'a Swamp-Root is soon realised. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success. An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on the subject, made the astonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are rejected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the ! large majority of those whose applies- j tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root is on sals at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, medium and large. However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper. Advertisement.

(Prepared by ths United Stttse Department of Agriculture.) Native nut trees, such as the black walnut and members of the hiekorj group Including the pecan, have a potential value not generally realized. Aside from the well-known value of the timber of the walnut in the making of furniture, gun-stocks, and airplane propellers, and of the white hickories in the manufacture of automoolle wheels, tool handles, and many other articles, and even of pecan wood tn its variety of uses, particularly for harness hames, these trees, when rightly selected and placed, form most attractive ornamentals. But, In addition to these uses, which alone are of enough Importance to Justify the careful preservation of existing trees and the planting of others, they have an economic value in the nuts produced. These native nuts, even though uncultivated and unimproved, and, perhaps, inferior In shell thickness and cracking quality, are preferred by many to any of the cultivated kinds from Europe and Asia. Nut Crop Adds to Income. On muny American farms by-products or small crops make important additions to the Income, and in many localities nut trees planted about the farm buildings, along the highways, or in other unoccupied spaces, or old trees that have been left in the clearing away of the original forest, are depended upon to add noticeably to the bank account. Forward-looking farmers want to make their trees produce the best nuts and In the greatest possible quantity. First of all, every tree intended to benr nuts in quantity needs ample space, 60 feet being ntffie too great an interval between trees of equal rate of growth, and larger trees, unless on the shady side, should be 100 feet apart. A fertile soil that Is reasonably moist Is best for nut trees, welldrained clay loam being the most deal ro hie. Variety Is next In Importance to soil and location. Experienced observers know that nut trees do not come true to seed, and that the only way to reproduce a variety or an Identical type is by grafting or budding, as is done with apples, peaches, pears, and other fruits. Nurseymen in the northo n part of the country are now propagating several varieties of black walsmts, pecans, hickories, and butternuts \j these methods, but due to the fact that active interest began only a decade ago, none of these varieties has Well Developed Blaek Walnut, Highly Prized for Its Ornamental Value and the Nuts It Produces. been given much opportunity to demonstrate its usefulness a* a money-crop producer. However, several varieties are promising. Mature native trees that are well situated may be made more valuable by top-working. By "top-working" is meant the replacing of the original top with a new top of another variety- It has been practiced for a long time by fruit growers to increase the value of seedling trees and trees of inferior varieties, and owners of nut trees are now adopting the method. The steps to be taken are: (1) The selection of trees, taking into account the things Just mentioned; (2) the choice of varieties to be used, and the making sure of scions or bud sticks at the proper time; (S) the cutting back of the tops during the latter part of the dormant period or very early In the spring; (4) the actual process of grafting or budding; and (5) the subsequent care of the new growth. Cutting Back the Tops. In cutting back the tops preparatory to budding or grafting, certain rales should be rigidly followed: (1) No cut should be made where a limb Is more than six inches in diameter, and s limit of three inches Is preferred; (2) all cum should be made so they wilt •real of themselves i t b j eiance, they receive no further attention; (3) cuts should be made in late winter while the trees are still dormant, or, at the latest, Just before the leaves appear; (4) cuts should always be made slightly above a bud, which will assure renewal is case the graft should fall. Grafting may be done by the common cleft method or the slip-bark method. The former is usually employed when the tree is still dormant and the latter at any time during the growing period, but the scions used must always be dormant, and as scions in that condition are seldom availnble after the first of April neither method is of much Interest Just now. It Is now too late to topwork trees this season, but those that have been cut back and small trees that may be budded without cutting back may be left until late summer or autumn, so that scions (then called bud sticks) of the better varieties, may be obtained and buds from them inserted In the bark of the new shoots. Specially devised tools for removing the buds from the bud sticks and for removing pieces of bark of identical size from the stock are on the market. Several are Illustrated in Farmers' Bulletin 700, Pecan Culture, which contains much information of Interest to nut propagators, and which may be obtained by writing to the Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. a Budding by the "patch bud" method may be done at any time when the bark of the stock slips readily. On trees of rapid growth the bark will slip at almost any time in the summer. On young trees not cut back budding may be done in the first half of the growing season, whereas new shoots grown from below cut-off tops should be of sufficient size for budding during the latter half of the season. Dry spells frequently cause the bark to tighten, but rains will loosen It later. The season for budding sometimes extends until the trees begin to go dormant. During the latter half of the season buds may be selected from those formed at the base of the present season's growth. Most of tbem will remain dormant until the following spring. DEATH WARRANTS FOR ALL INFERIOR SIRES Farmers List Stock and Agree to Use Only Purebreds Live Stock Owners 8how Determination to Put Herds of Entire Community on Better Paying Basis—.Many Enroll. (Prepared by the United Stetea Department of Agriculture.) The determination of groups and associations of live-stock owners to put herds of entire communities on a better paying basis IB shown by records of the United States Department of Agriculture in connection with Its better- sires activities. Participation in the federal-state campaign for "Better 8ires-Better Stock" Involves the signing of a blank In which a farmer lists his breeding stock and agrees to use purebred sires for all classes of farm animals kept. The blanks are distributed in most cases by county agents and are virtually death warrants for grade and scrub sires. In one day recently the department received 182 such blanks signed by fanners In Rockingham county, Virginia, and indorsed by Charles W. Wampler, county agent Other large numbers received In one day from Individual communities were 89 from Green county, Ohio, and 87 from Guernsey county, Ohio. Purebred sires of Inferior quality are often disposed of along with scrubs and grades in accordance with the requirement that the purebreds listed must be of sufficient merit to be worthy of heading herds and flocks.

Either practice is to be shunned. Heither would • be tolerated by specialists in children's diseases. Your Physician will tell you that Baby's medicine must be prepared with even greater care than Baby's food. A Baby's stomach when in good health is too often disarranged by improper food. Could you for a moment, then, think of giving to your oiling child anything but a medicine especially prepared for Infants and Children ? Dont be deceived. Hake a mental note of this:—It is important, Mothers, that you should remember that to function well, the digestive organs of your Baby must receive special care.

"'Not at all,' said the pretty girl, 'and now I'm going to wrap you up these three dozen tickets for our turkey raffle. They're only a slraoleon apiece. Three tens, a five, and a one.

Help \fou Choose Tires 5*6 miles at 94.48 miles an hour- a relentless grind oyer a rou^b-finished, eun-baked concrete and brick pavement at record-breaking speed—that is the gruelling test Oldfield Cord Tires underwent successfully at Indianapolis Speedway May 30th. They were on the winner's car for the third successive year and on eiaht of the ten finishing in the money, upholding the confidence successful race drivers have (n the trustworthiness and ability of these tires to meet the greatest demands of speed, endurance and safety. Their records in every other important race have been equally as good. Consider this achievement along with another test of Oldfield quality made at Wichita, Kansas, this past winter and early spring. 34,525 miles on rutted, icy Kansas roads, running day Sd night on a Studebaker stock car without a single tire ange. This test was made by a group of Wichita automotive dealers in a tire, oil and gasoline economy run. Mayor Kemp of Wichita was official observer and made affidavit to the mileage and service given by Oldfield tires. You may never subject your tires to the gruelling experience of Indianapolis nor the steady grind of bad winter roads, but it is good to know you can get such safety and mil by buying Oldfield tires.

Mixed in with the brogue were a few crocodile tears and a couple heart-rending groans over the terrible plight in which they found themselves, but it was exactly the leaven in the loaf that caused every .wornsin they visited to make a frantic search of the premises and dig up every shekel she could to buy, and buy and buy. Finally it occurred to one <tf the ladies to take her purchase down to one of the town m e r c h a n t s who promptly told her she could buy all she wanted of fhe same kindVvf stuff at a few cents a ycard, whereas it had cost her dollars. Jly t h a t trine the [three lasses were well on their way to other pastures green, leaving behind them some of the maddest women t h a t one could well imagine.—Zonk.

BREAK INTO JAIL TO FREE 2 GIRLS F L I N T YOUTHS ARRESTED A F T E R ANSWERING CAPTIVE'S PLEA TO RELEASE T H E M . FAIL IN ATTEMPT AT GETAWAY j - Detected Trying to Steal Autos In Which They Hoped to Elude \ Flint Officers. Flint, Mich—Breaking into the Genesee county Juvenile home at midnight and assisting two young girla to freedom, caused the arrest, Sunday, of five young men, now held a t the Genesee county Jail facing serious charges. The young men are: William Clark. 18 years old, of 118 Tillinghast place; Charles Lauderbach, 18 years old, of Flint; Colen Campbell, 19 years old» of 2022 Pine street; Ralph Kaln, 17 years old, and Everett Bailer, 16 yeara old, both of Coleman, Mich. The escape of the girls, Reva Fleming and Mary Reiser, detained until they could be removed to the girls* state reformatory at Adrian, was not discovered until they were captured by the police, six hours after their romantic departure from the home. About 9 o'clock, Saturday night, the five young men were walking with a group of 20 fellows to the Atherton road sand pit for a swim, when their attraction was drawn toward the detention home, they say, by the calls of a' girlish voice. The lads approached the home and! the girls asked them to free themfrom the prison, they claim. The young men agreed to come back t o the home about 11 o'clock, according; to a statement in the hands of police, but appeared there about midnight. An unsuccessful attempt was made to> remove window barriers with pliera and cutters, and the girls suggested that the men secure skeleton keya and gain entrance through a rear door. A rear door was successfully open* ed by means of keys, and while three* of the boys stood guard outside, two removed their shoes and walked past the quarters of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Burt, warden of the Institution, to the ] )oms occupied by the girls and, unlocking it, guided the pretty misses outside, without disturbing the custodians of the home. It was 4:30 Sunday morning that Patrolmen A. Smith and Scharff were« directed to capture a band of youtha attempting to steal an automobile on St. John street, Bailer and Kain and Miss Reiser were taken by the officers, who were told that three other men and a girl escaped. OfflcerB located the second group at th<> home of a friend and placed all under arrest. BERLIN DECLARES MARTIAL LAW German Capital Uneasy Following the* Assassination of Rathenau.

'Glorious Stars and Stripes T h e flag is t h e emblem of our unity. o u r powet, our purpose as a nation. It s p e a k s to us of the past. It has witn e s s e d a great history. Since its offic i a l adoption on J u n e 14, 1777, it h a s b e e n associated with whatever patriotic idea we worship a n d is the symbol of the great faith to which we ure born. "As long a s men are men that flag c h o s e n on J u n e 14, 1777, is well chosen. I t h a s a meaning, a message, a comm a n d , " says Uev. William Norman G u t h r i e , who has written a book, "The Religion of Old Glory," to explain the m e a n i n g and message of America's flag to the nations of the world, T h e flag of the United States came into being more deliberately and consciously than other thigs, such as that of England, or France, or Spain. It w a s chosen after many popular exp e r i m e n t s had heen made, officially and unofficially, on sea and land, Inception of the Flag. T h e story ui' ili•> actual making of t h e first American flag as we know It Is not touched on by Mr. Guthrie. O m i t t i n g all minor particulars, the main points are t h e s e : Washington, accompanied by two jrentlemen, called one day in 1770 at t h e little upholstery shop in Arch s t r e e t , Philadelphia, where Mrs, Betsy lioss was carrying on business, and tfsked her if ^he could make a flag. She said that she had never made one, b u t that she could try. They thereupon produced a design r a t h e r roughly flrnwn. She examined the design and. noticing that the s t a r s were six-pointed, suggested that they be made with five points, showing them how a nvepointed s t a r eould be made with a single clip of the scissors. Design Approved by Congress. General Washington then and, t h e r e c h a n g e d the sketch, and soon after a colored design by a painter named Will i a m B a r r e t t was sent to Mrs. Ross as a sample, whereupon she set to work and completed a flag winch was approved. This was the flag that was finally adopted by congress, and on J u n e 1-1, 1777, congress entered on its journal an official indorsement of the Stars and Stripes in a resolution worded as follows : "Resolved, T h a t the flag of the United States be 13 stripes, a l t e r n a t e red and white, and that the union be 13 stars white in a blue field, representing a new constellation." T h e resolution says nothing about the arrangement of the stars in the field. The ensign of t h e United S t a t e s remained the s a m e as fixed by the resolution of J u n e 14, 1777, until 1795, when Vermont and Kentucky had been admitted to the Union, and on J a n u a r y 13, 1794, congress passed the following a c t : "That from and after the first day of May, 1795, the flag of the United States be 15 stripes a l t e r n a t e red and w h i t e ; that the union be 15 s t a r s white in a blue field." In ISIS, at the suggestion of Samuel <\ Reid, the original 13 stripes were restored and congress voted to add a new star on the Fourth of July succeeding the admission of each new state. Significance of Symbols. "When a white'flag staff or pole is set up on a village green," says Mr. Guthrie, "it will doubtless show at the top on a golden ball the American eagle, also golden, flapping his wide wings, as if just alighting or about to exult in heavenward flight. This eagle is the very prime symbol of our defensive and aspiring I'nion. It Is the bird or angel of our peace, our winged Victory, our Bhoenlx, the point of contact and the vehicle of grace in our intercourse with heaven. Embroidered on a blue field, star strewn, it is the emblem of the executive head of the nation." In his right talon our eagle clutches the olive branch, with 13 green leaves and 13 berries, the leaves that are the show' of life and the berries that are the fruit—that symbol itself carrying" us back to the olive twig borne by the dove of Noah. This olive branch proclaims our constant purpose—a positive creative peace. Now, in the left talon of our heraldic eagle are clutched the 13 arrows which signify t h e threatening thunderbolts. As. Mr. Guthrie explains it, the 13 lightning bolts are ready to be shot out of the heaven and to establish with whatever violence may be needed against the tiger and ape, stampeding herds or howling wolf packs, the peace of perfect athletic humanity. "Flag and eagle they are o u r s ; they are historically one," says Mr. Guthrie. "Our flag flies to the winds, as we lift our eyes to it reverently we can and do swear fealty to it with whatever abides vitally innocent in us, white hot for the strife unto a better world," Lord God of land and sea, An ancient faith renew, That still our stand may be The trust our fathers knew; We of the Legion pray, Lore] Q«4, To follow in the way they trod. What Freedom gave they shared— The shores that made them free— With true men brave who dared The seas for Liberty; We of the Legion, Lord, would share Our heritage with them who dare. In duty done, they wrought That peace might still abide; In fear of none, they fought With right upon their side; We of the Legion plead for light, So we be upright in Thy sight. Not theirs with gyve and chain To bind the vanquished foe; Not theirs to strive for gain From out a people's woe: We of the Legion under Thet Would champion Democracy. One Flag alone they flew, Nor vain to them its call, That we might own it true, The bravest flag of all; We of the Legion swear to hold The Flag unsullied, fold and fold. —Thomas Q.

R U N N I N G A N T E L O P E ' S V I E W S O F H O N E S T Y O F A G E N T S IN T H E spring of 1874, while the Seventh cavalry was stationed at Fort Abraham Lincoln, N. D., a band of Huukpapa Sioux from a reservation near by came to the fort to ask General Custer for the food which they much needed. The -.steamer bringing the supplies Issued them by the Indian department had been frozen in Ice In the Missouri river and they had been compelled to eut their du^s and ponies to keep from starving. Having decided to seek aid from tho military, they brought with them their greatest orator, Kunning Antelope i (Tahincasula Inyanke), a tine-looking, dignified old warrior, to present their cause. Running Antelope described at length tlie distressing condition of the tribe and denounced their agent, accusing all agents of dishonesty. At this point (Jeneral Custer' Interrupted and asked the interpreter to say to the chief that the (Jreat Father selected only good men for agents before sending them out from Washington. When this was explained to Running Antelope he smiled grimly and, through the interpreter, replied: "Well, they may be good men when they leave the (Jreat Father, but they get to be d—d cheats by the time they reach us." After the council was over, General Custer invited Running Antelope and his chiefs into a dining room of his quarters for a feast. Dignified and impressive as the old chief was while speaking In a council, he was not so admirable as a table companion. After gorging himself on everything in sight, he emptied the plates and swept the remains of the feast from the very noses of his headmen, Into the folds of his robe. Then he belted it at his waist, making a capacious haversack, grunted his 'appreciation of the hospitality and stalked from the room. Although Running Antelope had not learned table manners (according to white men's lights) In the tepees of his fathers, he was a first-class fighting man. The majority of his victims were members of the Arlkara tribe. His bag of Arikaras for 18,'d was ten warriors and three women. His greatest single feat was the slaying of Ave warriors in ooe day. In tlie 1 li years which the record covers he confesses, graphically, t o dispafchtng no tats •ban 80 of these hereditary foes of the Bloux, a record of systematic homicide which doubtless gave him as great a reputation among bis tribesmen for being a warror as he enjoyed among the whites as an orator. CRAZY H O R S E F O I L E D T H R E E A M E R I C A N G E N E R A L S Betsy Ross' Grave Needs Care .**,>•?••**••*>*),.&,•* Few Americans would think that this was the grave of one of the nation's most famous womjn—a great historic character. It Is the resting place of Betsy Ross, who made the first "Star-Spangled Banner," used in the Continental army. No appropriation ever has been made for the care of the grave. The patriotic order, Sens of America, has Izktn ths matter up. CRAZY HORSK (Tnshunka Wltko) chief of the Ogallala Sioux, was a tighter. As his name Imjdled, his was a personality wild, untamed and something of a berserker. In going Into battle no warrior was ever allowed to precede him. He was not an hereditary chief; he won his title by shoer ability. By the time the Sioux had be~ gun to war on tlie white man, they looked upon Crazy Horse as one of their most promising war leaders. When Red Cloud laid siege to Fort Phil Kearney In 1800, Crazy Horse was chosen to lead the attnek on the woodchoppers, to draw out the soldiers. The strategy was successful. Lieutenant Colonel F e t t e r m a n marched out with 80 men, was lured Into a t r a p and overwhelmed. It was Crazy Horse's first victory over the whites. His second came In the campaign of 1876. In March Gen. J. J. Reynolds attacked Crazy Horse's camp on the Powder river. He captured it, but the Ogallala forced him to retire hastily. Next he fought Gen. George Crook to a standstill at the famous battle of the Rosebud, J u n e 17. Eight days Inter Gen. George A. Custer rode Into the valley of the Little Big Horn with the Seventh cavalry and divided his force to attack the big Indian camp. Crazy Horse instantly saw the mistake that Custer had made and led his warriors to cut off the chance to retreat. Within on hour Custer and his men were desd. It was the Ogallala's greatest victory. Fetterman, Reynolds, Crook and Custer—Crazy Horse had met and defeated them all, and two of them were rated the greatest Indian fighters in the army. But the Ogallala met his mast e r In Gen. Nelson A. Miles, who defeated the chief decisively at the Hattie of Wolf Mountain, although the Indian withdrew In good order. T h e next s u m m e r Crazy Horse surrendered. His enemies circulated the report that he was planning another outbreak and he came to Fort Robinson to deny It. The army officers decided to arrest him. As they led him. unsuspecting treachery, toward the guardhouse his friend. Touch the Clouds, exclaimed: "Cousin, they will put you In prison." "Another white man's trick 1 bet me go! Let me dte fighting!" shouted Crazy Horse, a s an oflicer and Little Big Man. an Ogallala chief, seized his arms. T h e chief drew his hunting knife, his only weapon. As they struggled to disarm him he received a fatal wound—whether from the knife or a soldier's ba>onet UJ unknown. True Detective Stories! t SHADOW OF EVIL f Copyright by T h e Wheeler byudicnie, Inc. 5: / # T ' L L be back in a few minutes," I said Henry Goudle, cashier of the Bank of Liverpool, to one of his associates. "I'm just going across the street to get u bite of lunch." An iiour later the officials of the bank begun lo wonder where Goudie was, but the fact that his hat still remained upon its accustomed ]**g indicated that the cashier wasn't far away, and that he would soon return. But at the closing hour that afternoon Goudie was still missing—and when an auditor went over his bonks it was discovered that a hundred and seventy-live thousand pounds (some $ SOU ,UUU) had also disappeared ! Inquiry ut the house where Goudie had lodged failed to bring t" light any truce of the missing cashier, who had left home that morning us usual, apparently without any intention of being away over night. His' clothes were in their accustomed position, and even his toilet articles .vere untouched. In fact, If it hadn't been for the (lis appearance of the money from% the bank, thi' police would have searched the hospitals, on the theory t h a t Goudie had met with an accident. But as F r a n k Freost, superintendent of Scotland Yard, pointed out, it was hardly libely that a bank official and .S8.V),UKJ would vanish at one and the same time without some connection between the two events. "As luck would have It." continued Froest, one of the ablest detectives In England, "Goudie has chosen the simplest manner in which to make his escape— the easiest from his [joint of view and the most difficult from the standpoint of the police. It Is con^ pnratively simple to find a man who luys his plans in advance. You can usually trace his baggage or his railway tickets. But Goudie just walked out. to lunch and lost himself somewhere. He left only one clue behind him—his hat. Therefore, working on the assumption that a hatless man would be quite conspicuous, •and that Goudie, knowing this, would Immediately purchase another hat, Freost made the rounds of the shops near the Liverpool haul:. From tlie clerk in one of them be obtained the information that a man answering to tlie description of the missing ensWier hud purchased n cloth cap of a distinctive pattern only a few moments after noon on the day that Goudie vanished. By means of this clue and a detailed report on Goudie's appearance. Freost soon had every man connected with Scotland Yard searching for the ab. scoiullng cashier. But it was -everal weeks before he was located and cap-1 Hired In a lodglBg house in the north of Fngland. However, the a r r e s t of the man who looted the Rank of Liverpool did not by any means otose' the case. Even before he WftS discovered, Freost had found out that Ooudle bad been iti the habit of playing the races —-parronzing a clique of "hand-book men," who had played upon his cupidity In such a manner that they, and not he, had secured the benefits of his dishonesty. In order to recover the money, Freost therefore had to round tip the members of this gambling ring and force them to disgorge, It developed that the leader of tlie organization, sending u way In which to make a lot of money, without running any risk, had approached Goudie with an account of a "fixed race" which was to be run nt Epsom Downs, RIUI that the cashier, believing that he could clean up a fortune in a single day, had taken twenty-five thousand pounds from the bank, falsifying the accounts to conceal the shortage. T h e mnn's credulity is evident from the fact that he placed the money nt odds of L'O to 1, which meant that he stood to win half a million pounds, or $2.- HOO.fKK) if his horse came In first. Of course, no bcxikmaker could afford to pay a bet of this size— but Goudie overlooked this fact and cheerfully wagered bis "borrowed" capital. T h e horse naturally failed to win, and, in an effort to recoup his losses, the cashier commenced systematically to loot the bank's funds. One of the odd features nf the case which Freost discovered, by blind luck. Goudie one day placed a big bet on a horse that won. When he went to collect his bet, with the firm Intention of squaring' his accounts with the bank, be was casually Informed that the wagp>r hnd not been placed In time, ami he was advised to put it on another "sure tip," which lost. When his defalcations reached a point when it was hopeless to attempt further concealment from the bank authorities, Gouldle "went out to lunch." it didn't take Freost long to discover that, in planning a round-up of tlie gambling gang he was tackling one of the most difficult Jobs of his career. One hy one Freost picked up* the various t h r e a d s of the tangled case. One by one he followed the various fines, nt least one of which led to Hie suicide of n member of the bookmakers' clique. But, in addition to seeing that Gouldle was sent to prison for ten years, Freost secured evidence which forced the return of all but a small amount of money which had been taken from the B a n k of Liverpool a n d placed upon hordes, which, save in a single instance, had no chance w h a t e v e r to win.

He came out Wednesday evening instead of Friday evening a.s was expected, and only went into the city afternoons to 1>'f,y ball. The Island Lake Hotel was his stopnig place. Friday night a banquet was arranged in Detroit by prominent citizens for Bahe, hut when things were ready Babe was missing. No b a n q u e t s for him when he could enjoy himself at Island Lake. Friday noon he had dinner at thcJiotel with Governor Groesbeck. • Saturday forenoon he amused himself and a crowd by hatting "home runs" out onto the lake for delighted boys in swimming to catch. A number of pictures were taken of him to he used in the Island Luke Souvenir this summer. When Babe left S a t u r d a y it was with reluctance, and he said briefly,. "Best place 1 was ever at.

Everywhere CONTROL OF ALFALFA WEEVIL BY SPRAYING POISON OVER FIELDS j M i . * a e » - ^ » ^ * « w > . r a r e g ^ - - r f . . ^ d * * « a q The Alfalfa Weevil and Work of Larvae. W. N. U., DETROIT, NO. 26-1924 (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Farmers in regions newly infested by the alfalfa weevil will be Interested in knowing that an unusually effective method of control lias been worked out. by the United States Department of Agriculture. Specialists of the department say that rarely has any method of insect control been so thoroughly safeguarded against failure as alfalfa-weevil spraying. It lias been tested every season for seven years. The cost of the operation— about $1 an acre—is trifling compared with the returns, and no farmer in the territory infested or threatened can afford to overluok it, the specialists say. There is no control measure, however, which can be applied advantageously this late in the season. Effective work must be delayed until next spring. Control by Poison Spray. Control is effective by spraying poison over the fields so that it will cover the growing parts on which the weevils mostly feed. Arsenate of lead and arsenite of zinc have been mostly used, but other arsenicals recommended for orchard spraying are thought to be about as good. There is practically no danger of burning the foliage ol alfalfa, and therefore tlie range of suitable poisons is larger than in fruittree spraying. Arsenate of lead is said to be, everything considered, the best poison to use, principally because it sticks to the leaves more readily and costs less than most of the others. The poison is weighed or measured at the rate of two pounds of powder or four pounds of commercial paste for each KXJ gallons of water, is stirred with a little water in a pail until it becomes a thin paste without lumps, is diluted and strained into the sprayer tank. Two pounds of laundry soap for each gallon should be added, in order to make the liquid stick to the leaves properly. The dry, powdered form of the poison is better than the paste. There is no danger of stock being poisoned by hay cut from sprayed fields where the poison is applied at a rate of not greater than 10U gallons of spray mixture per acre. Simple Outfit Sufficient. The essentials of the spraying outfit i are: A truck or other vehicle, a tank i with an agitator to keep the poison from settling to the bottom, a pump, a pressure gauge, an engine and pumping jack, unless the pump is to be driven by hand, a strainer, a pipe for distributing the liquid from the pump. \ and as many nozzles as are required j by the capacity of the pump. These j essentials may all be contained in a barrel-pump outfit carried in a wagon. The pump must be capable of delivering four-fifths of a gallon or more a minute and maintaining a pressure of at least 75 pounds. If the pressure is less than that, the mist spray will not be fine enough to prevent the liquid from gathering in drops and running to the ground instead of drying on the tops of the plants. The numher of nozzles used should be sufficient to take up tiie capacity of the pump. At the average walking gait of a team, each nozzle should deliver nine-tenths of a gallon a minute. Therefore, a pump of nine-gallon capacity per minute will supply ten nozzles, each of which covers a strip two feet wide. By an arithmetical calculation of the cubical content of the pump cylinder ana the number of strokes per minute, the capacity of the outfit can be determined. The spray should be applied at the rate of 100 gallons of spray mixture per acre. Nearly any kind of spraying outfit can be adopted for this purpose. However, modem orchard spray out tits are usually designed to give a comprehensively small flow and high pressure. and are less suitable for alfalfa spraying than the older pumps with l;;rger cylinders and longer strokes, designed for larger flow and lower pressure. The spraying outfit should be mounted on the wagon or other vehicle used so thnt the nozzles will be about two feet above the tops of the alfalfa plants.

A strainer of L'O mesh brass or bronze screen should be fitted to the opening through which the water enters the tank and another over the outlet ltading to the pump. The parts of the pump in which close fitting is required should be of brass, bronze, porcelain, or some other substance less rapidly corroded by the chemicals than iron und steel. All commercial spray pumps are built in this way, but pumps which were intended for other purposes should be refitted when used for spraying. An engine-driven outfit must have a relief valve near the pump, permitting the surplus flow to return to the tank. The pump must have an airpressure chamber large enough to keep the flow steady and insure even distribution of the poison. Even pressure, indispensable for uniform spread of the poison, cannot be maintained without a pressure gauge. This gauge should be attached to the pres- I mutton $12¾ H: light pork loins $18@20; , . „ , , ,. heavy loins $13® l i . sure chamber or near it and at a dis- F r u ] t a a n d V e g e t a b ( e 8 tance from relief-valve and nozzles. The boom or pipe which carries the nozzles and supplies them with liquid from the pump is made of two-foot pieces of one-half inch galvanized iron pipe joined by T's, each of which affords an opening for the attachment ux a nozzle. The boom is connected with the pump by a one-half inch pressure hose. The boom should be supported by a piece of timber, two by four, clamped or hinged to the truck with the boom stapled, bolted, or wired to it. Plain misty nozzles, without strainers or other complica tions, should be used. Spray in Warm Weather. The best time for spraying is at what the specialists call the turning point of weevil infestation--from one to two weeks before the first crop is ready for cutting, when the young iarvue become so numerous that they completely destroy the growing tips. After that point is reached the weevils, If left alone, consume the leaves until nothing is left but the woody fibers. If spraying is done at this time the crop recovers quickly. Spraying yearly in the spring sometimes entirely prevents damage, but it is uncertain. On the other hand, plants sprayed after they were entirely stripped of their foliage have been able to recover and bloom, but this allows destruction to go too far and makes recovery too slow. Spraying at the "turning point" not only protects the first crop but confers an even larger benefit on the second crop, which sprouts and grows without delay, and no treatment of the stubble Is necessary. Stubble spraying, after the cutting of the first crop, has been successfully done, but It requires getting Into the field immediately after cutting and a much larger quantity of liquid is required than If it were applied to the first crop. Stubble spraying, therefore, is advised only when earlier spraying has been impossible. Spraying should be done, If possible, at the beginning of a warm spell. The weevils do not feed so voraciously In cool weather. There are other control measures, but none of them promises much more unless applied before or Immediately after the first cutting. One method is to pasture the alfalfa field until most of the eggs and young larvae have been destroyed. Another is to use the altiilfa as a soiling crop, cutting it green two or three times during the season. These methods, however, must be practiced before the turning point of infestation, as after that time the weevils destroy the plants so completely that there is not enough growth for either pasture >r soiling. Another method is to cultivate the field with a harrow or other Implement, Immediately after the first cutting, in such j way as to cover the flel<* with a, dust mulch, thus exposing the entire surface of the field to the sun and killing most of the weevils. In some Instances, the second crop has been protected by dragging the stubble, while it is still wet from irrigation, with the land leveler or the clod breaker. This causes the Insects to perish by embedding them In the mud, but It U harmful to the «oll and la not recommended. No. 2 white and No. 2 mixed.

BRAN DISHES AND OTHERS A few spoonfuls t>f bran may b« mixed with any dry breakfast food, with no noticeable difference In the taste. Bran is a good broom for the alimentary canal and In various d i s h e s m a y be made most appetizing. Bran Layer Cake.—Take one quarter cupful of butter, add one unbeaten egg and fill up the cup with sweet milk, stirring enough to mix. Sift together a tablespoonful of cornstarch, one cupful each of flour and sugar, and a teaspoonful each of baking 'powder and suit. Add one-half cupful of bran and mix with the liquid, stir until smooth and bake in two layers, using a cooked cream or jelly for filling. It may also be baked in a loaf, adding spice to taste. Bran Jelly.—Sift bran Into boiling water, stirring till it is like gruel. Cook slowly two hours, strain* through a fine sieve and repeat. Mix a tablespoonful of graham flour with * little cold water, add to the boiling liquid ' and cook until It is smooth. Add a little salt, pour into wet molds and set away to harden. It will make a delicate jelly which may be served with fruit or milk. Fine for a delicate stomach. A bonny clabber desert Is one which it is wise to teach the children to enjoy. Set a pan of rich new milk away to just become thick. Place on Ice until well chilled and serve with grated maple sugar or with a sprinkling of brown sugar with nutmeg or cinnamon. A child's luncheon with a piece of whole wheat bread and butter will make a good meal, even for an adult. Thick sour cream, when it is obtainable, makes the most delicious salad dressings. Whip it with a Dover beater ; when stiff, add lemon or pineapple Juice and such other seasonings as are appropriate to the salad which Is to be served. The usual boiled salad dressing Is made especially rich and tasty by the addition of a half-cupful of rich, sour cream, beaten stiff and added to three tablespoonfuls of boiled dressing. Rhubarb Pudding.—Place sufficient sliced bread buttered to serve the family in a baking dish, cover each slice with chopped rhubarb, sprinkle with sugar and nutmeg and repeat until the dish is full. Add boiling water and bake until the rhubarb is well cooked and the bread saturated with the Juice. Serve on a plate direct from the dish either hot or cold, with any desired A teem of horses, valued at $450, owned by Victor Nelson, was struck by lightning and killed in a field on hit farm near West Branch.

SAVORY DISHES N - Now that the mushroom is growing In the fields a few dishes to remind us of its worth, are in season : Scrambled Eggs and Mushrooms.—Break Into small pieces one pint of fresh well-cleaned mushrooms. Sprinkle with salt and let them stand 30 minutes. Put into a saucepan two tablespoonfuls of butter; add the mushrooms and their juice; cover and cook eight minutes after they begin to simmer. Season with pepper and more salt If needed. Add the yolks of five eggs, beaten slightly, to the stewed mushrooms. Stir until the eggs are set. Serve on toast. Corn Fritters.—Put the contents of a can of corn through the meat chopper, add two well-beaten eggs, two or three tablespoonfuls of milk and two tablespoonfuls of flour. Add onehalf teaspoonful of sugar, salt and pepper to taste. Fry by spoonfuls In hot fat or butter, browning well. Fresh corn may be used, omitting the milt. Curried Eggs,—Take six hard coot eggs. Peel three large onions and them in thin slices, put them with tablespoonfuls of butter in a sauct and cook until soft.

Tamada had come down from the fires, Peggy had told of his share, and Sandy's timely about. Lund codded at him in a friendly manner. "You're a white man, Tamada," he said. "You, too, Sandy. I'll not forget 1L Rainey, round up these derelicts an' help Tamada fix 'em up. I'll settle with 'em later. Hansen, put the rest of 'em to work, an' keep 'era to it I Do you hear? They got to do the work of the whole bunch." Lund turned to the two' hunters who had stood apart. "Wal, you yellow-bellied neutrals," he said, his voice cold and his eyes hard. "Thought I might lose, and hoped so, didn't you? Pick up that •kunk Beale an' tote him aboard. Then come back an' go to work. You'll git yore shares, but you'll not git what's comin' to those who stood by. Now git out of my sight. You can bnry That when you come back," He nodded at the sodden corpse of Demlng, flung up on the grit. "You can take yore pay as grave diggers out Of what you owe him at poker. H e ain't goin' to collect, this trip." Rainey, lame and sore, helped Tamada patch up the wounded, turning the hunters' quarters into a sick bay, using the table for operation. Beale was the worst off, but Tamada pronounced him not vitally damaged. After he had finished with them he Insisted upoa Rainey's lying, face down, on th« table, stripped to the waist, while he rubbed him with oil and then kneaded him. Once he gave a sudden, twisting wrench, and Rainey aaw a blur of stars as something snapped into place with a click. "I think you soon all right, now," •aid Tamada. "You and Miss Simms turned the tide," said Rainey. "If they'd got these tools first they'd have finished us in short order." "Fools!" said Tamada. "Suppose they kill Lund, how they get away? No one to navigate. Presently the gunboat would find them. I think Mr. Lund will maybe trust me now," he said quietly. "What do you mean?" "Mr. Lund think in the back of his head I arrange for that gunboat to come. He cannot understand how they know the schooner at island. He think to come Jus' this time too much curious, I think." "It was a bit of a coincidence." Tamada shrugged his shoulders slightly. "I think Japanese government know all that goes on In North Polar region," he said. "There is wireless station on Wrangell island. We pass by that pretty close." Rainey chewed that information as he put on his clothes, wondering if they had seen the, last of the gunboat. They would have to pass south through Bering strait. It would be easy to overhaul them, halt them, search the schooner, confiscate the gold. They were not out of trouble yet. When he went Injo the cabin to replace his torn coat—he had hardly a button intact above the waist, from jacket to undershirt—he found the girl fhere with Lund. Apparently, they had Just come in. Peggy Simms, with face aglow with the excitement that had not subsided, was proffering Land her pistol. "Keep It," he said. "You may need it. Tve got mine." "But you threw it Into the water. I saw „vou." "No," He laughed. ' T h a t wasn't my gun. They thought it was. I wanted to bring the thing to g r p s . But I wasn't fool enough to chuck away my pun. That was a wrench I * was usin' this mornln' to fix the cabin atove—looks jest like an ottermatic. I Stuck it in my inside racket. I was ls»*f a mind to shoot when they showed .fkeir knives, but I didn't want to use My gun on thnt mess of hash." He stood tall and broad above her, looking down at the face that was n i s e d to his. Rainey, unnoticed as y e t saw her eyes bright with admiration. "You are a wonderful fighter," she said softly. "Wonderful? What about yon? A man's woman! You saved the day. Comin' to me with them drills. An' we •licked 'em. We. God!* He swept her up Into his arms, lifttag her in his big hands, making no more of her than if she had been a •feather pillow, up till her face was on • level with his, pressing her close, while in swift, indignant rage she fought back at him. striking futilely while he held her, kissed her, and set her down as Rainey sprang forward. Lnnd seemed utterly unconscious of the girl's revulsion. ••CbmhV to me with the drills!" he aald. "We licked 'em. You an' me together. My woman!" Ptoggy Simms had leaped back, her •yea blazrng. Lnnd came for her. his faea lit with the desire of her. arms outspread, bands open. Before Rainey «otrtd fling himself between them, the girt bad snitched the little pistol that Lund had set on the table and fired point-blank. She seemed to have missed, though Lund halted, his mouth agape, astounded. "You big bully I" said Rainey. Now that the time had come Tie found that he was not afraid of Luud, of his gun, of his strength. "Play fair, do you? Then show it 1 You asked me once why T didn't make love to her. I told you. But you, you foul-minded bully! All you think of is your bijj body, to take what it wants. "Peggy. Will you marry me? I can protect you from this hulking brute. If it's to be a show-down between you and me," he flared at Lund, still gazing as if stupefied, "let it come now. Peggy?" The girl, tears on her cheeks that were born from the sobs of anger that had shaken her, swung on him. "Your* she said, and Rainey wilted under the scorn in her voice. "Marry you?" She began to laugh hysterically, trying to check herself. "I didn't mean you enny harm," said Lund slowly, addressing Peggy. "Why, I wouldn't harm you, gal. You're my woman. You come to me. I was jest —jest sorter swept off my bearin's. Why," he turned to Rainey, his voice down-pitching to a growl of angry contempt, "you pen-shoven' whippersnapper, I c'ud break you in ha'f with one hand. You ain't her breed. But"— his voice changed again—"if it's a show-down, all right. "If I was to fight yon, over her, I'd kill you* D'ye think I don't respect a good gal? D'ye think I don't know how to love a gal right? She's my mate. Not yours. But it's up to you, Peggy Simms. I didn't mean to insult you. An' if you want him—why It's up to you to choose between the two of us," She went by Rainey as if he had not existed, straight Into Lund's arms, her, face radiant, upturned. "It's you I love, Jim Lund," she said. "A man. My man." As her arms went round his neck she gave a little cry. "I wounded you," she said, and the tender concern of her struck Rainey to the quick. "Quick, let me see." "Wounded, h- -11!" laughed Lund. "D'ye think that poptftm of yores c'ud She Seemed to Have Missed, Though Lund Halted, His Mouth Agape, Astounded. stop me? The pellet's somewheres in my shoulder. Let it bide. By God, yo're my woman, after all. Lund's Luck !" Rainey went up on deck with that ringing In his ears. His humiliation wore off swiftly as he crossed hack toward the beach. By the time he crossed the promontory he even felt relieved at the outcome. He was not In love with her. He had known that when he Intervened. He had not even told her so. His chivalry had spoken— not his heart. And his thoughts strayed back to California. The other girl, Diana though she was, would never, In almost one breath, have shot and kissed the man she loved. A lingering vision of Peggy Simms' beanty as she had gone to Lund remained and faded. "Lund's right," he told himself. "She's not of my breed." CHAPTER X I I I . Lund's Luck Lund glanced at the geyser of spray where the shell from the pursuing gunboat had fallen short, and then at the bank of mist ahead. They were in the narrows of Bering strait, between the Cape of Charles and Prince Edward's point, the gold aboard, a loll wind in their sails, making eleven knots to the gunboat's fifteen. The great curtain of fog was a mlk> ahead. The last shell had fallen two hundred yards short. FIvs minutes more would settle it. Hansen had the wheel. Lund stood by the taffrail, his arm about Peggy Simms. He shook a fist at the gunboat, vomiting black smoke from her funnel, foam about her bows. "We'll beat 'em yet," he cried. The next shell, with more elevation, whined parallel with them, sped ahead, and smashed into the waves. "Hold yore course, Hansen! No time to zigzag. Got to chance it. D—n it. they know how to shootV A missile had gone plump through main and foresails, leaving round holes to mark the score. Another fairly struck the main topmast, and some splinters came rattling down, while the remnants of the top-sail flapped amid writhing en4s of halyard and sheet. They entered the beginning of the fog, curling wisps of it reached out, twining over the bowsprint and headsails, enveloping the foremast, swallow. Ing the schooner as a hurtling shell crashed into the stern. The next instant the mist had Sheltered them, f.und released the girl and jumped to the wheel. "Now then," he shouted, "we'll fool 'em!" He gripped the spokes, and the men ran to the sheets at command while the Karluk shot off at right angles to her previous course, skirting the fog that blanketed the wind but yet allowed sufficient breeze to filter through to give them headway, gliding like a ghost on the new tack to the east. Rainey, tense from the explosion of the shell, jumped below at last and came back exultant. "It was a dud, Lund!" he shouted. "Or else they didn't want to blow us up on account of the gold. But they've wrecked the cabin. The fog's coming in through the hole they made. Tamada's galley's gone. It's raked the schooner!" "So long's it's above the water line, to h—11 with it! We'll make out. Listen to the fools. They've gone In after us, straight on." The booming of the gunboat's for* ward battery sounded aft of them, dulled by the fog—growing fainter. "Lund's Luck ! We've dodged 'em !" "They'll be waiting for us at the passes," said Rainey. "They've got the speed on us." "Let 'em wait. To blazes with the Aleutians! Ready again there for a tack! Sou'-east now. We'll work through this till we git to the wind ag*ln. It's all blue water to the Seward peninsula. We're bound for Nome." "For Nome?" asked Peggy Simms. "Nome, Peggy! An American port.

Gasparino Dante got up early Sunday morning, and before the sun was very high his day's work was well started on his farm near Capula, Italy. The two daughters—one eighteen and the other fifteen—started (and finished) the day with the men. The younger children were too small to be of any help, although the boy of ten scattered wheat over the stone threshing floor so that It would be ready wheu the older members of the family had finished with breakfast—bread and cheese and coffee, for Dante can afford coffee in the morning. He owns thirty acres. When threshing started, the father paired with the oldest girl on the side of the floor; the other couple stood side by side opposite. The four flails were poised high in the air an Instant and then at a shout from the farmer one pair descended and as they were lifted the couple opposite struck. The four beat the grain, keeping perfect time and pausing only while ihe boy raked the straw into a pile at one side of the floor and swept the kernels of wheat into another heap, and threw down a fresh supply. Then, with a shouted signal that seemed to welcome the new onslaught the rhythm of the thumping started again. The manner of the threshers was more like that of couples dancing an old-fashioned quadrille than that of harvest tollers under the blisterfng. blinding midsummer sun of south' ern Italj. Difficulties to Be Overcome. Lord Beuconsfleld was no idealist— though he had imagination—yet even he wild: "Man is not the creature of circumstances. Circumstances are ths creatures of men." "Nurture your mind," he said again, "with groat thoughts. To believe In the herole Is to make heroes." Difficulties are regarded by a great hearted people as things to be overcome, and to them duties 'are challenges. Unfair Advantage.

The Goodyear Cross Rib has in it the same high grade Egyptian cotton fabric that goes into the All-Weather Tread Goodyear. It has a differently designed but longwearing tread, and it sells for considerably less money. In the past five years more than 5,000,000 of these "©oodyear Cross Rib Tires have been sold. They have everywhere given remarkable service. Their fine performance and known value have convinced thousands of motorists of the folly of buying unknown and unguaranteed tires of lower price.

A few minutes later the mother, on her way downstairs, heard the visitor ask Ethel how many brothers and sisters she had, and, to her. surprise and consternation, the little miss answered, "Se»en." After the minister had left, the child was taken to task and asked why she had said there were seven children.

The Old 1 Carriage Maker Had an Important Truth 'To make each part as strong as the rest," was his way of "buildinl • wonderful, one-horse chaise that wouldn't wear out till judgment day. This illustrates a fact that is keeping many doctors busy these days —human bodies, like chaises, break down because some part isn't as strong as the others. Very often it's because of ill-balanced food, lacking in some important element of nutrition. This is especially true of ills developed in childhood, and carried on through life. Grape-Nuts, that world-famous, ready-to-eat cereal, brings the plan of building each part as strong as the rest—to serve human need. Grape- Nuts contains all the nutriment of those best of the field grains, wheat and barley, including the vital mineral elements, and it is a wonderful food for building and sustaining health and strength. The delicious flavor and crispness of Grape-Nuts make it a welcome dish whenever you're hungry. GrapeNuts THE BODY BUILDER "There's a Reason" Made by Poitum Cerstl Co., Inc., Battle Creek, Mioh.)

The celebration at Fowlervilte and Howell also allured many, especially base ball fans who saw Stockbridge and Howell defeat Fowlerville and Dexter by one-sided scores. The roads were very dusty from the continual passage of automobiles and the road hog was in evidence. Dunne Lavey corning home from Fowl-erville was forced into the roadside near Honey Creek by one man who should have his license taken from him. He crowded Duane's machine up a bank his auto becoming overturned but fortunately neither the car nor Mr. Lavey were injured. Other Pinckney automobilists had similar experiences. - NAVAkRE—WHITLOCK _ A charming June wedding took place at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Whitloek, HambnTrg, on Wednesday, June 28th, when their only daughter Majel was united in marriage to Mr. Ira Navarre of Detroit'by Rev. J. E. Cook of Pinckney. At five o'clock the bridal party entered the parlor to the strains of Lohengrin's wedding march played by Miss Mildred Lemen. The bride, who was given away by her father, looked very girlish in her wedding dress of Spanish lace over bride's satin. She wore the usual bride's veil and carried bride's roses. Miss Isabell Krause of Ann Arbor Was bridesmaid. She was dressed in blue and white silk crepe and carried French roses. Little Miss Ruth Green made a charming ring bearer carrying the two rings on a jwllow of satin to the altar where the double ring ceremony was u^ed, and little Miss Klla Green cleverly acted the part of flower girl. After the ceremony guests numbering about H9 enjoyed a buffet luncheon Mr. and Mrs. Navarre left early in the evening for a short honeymoon. Guests were present from Detroit, Ann Arbor, S;iline, Brighton, Whitmore Lake, and Newport, HARD TO LOSE THIS •Sunday the Ann Arbor Grotto team came over to piny the second game vith Pinckney, the local .team having won the first game by a good majority, The Ann Arbor team was strengthened by L'terit/, of the I' of M varsity team and Kiting, pitcher. Kach team had made three runs p to the third inning and then there we*e no more stores until the eleventh inning when Arm Arbor managed to put two runs across the plate, Pinckney made a great attempt to at least tie the score ngain in their half and succeeded in making one rurf and then lost the game by the score of .5 to 1. There have been several hard fought battles on the Pinckney diamond this year but no game furnished more real base ball entertainment than this one and Pinckney players showed gameness at every stage, Owing to the threatening weather the attendance was small and the game was called for a half hour while the rin fell. ; ^ Batteries! Pincknev, Nichols .and McClear. Ann Arbor, Biting and Coateg. Umpires', of Ann Arbor, Ruel Cadwell of The Bluffs. Pinckney goes to Ypsilanti next Sunday to play the.Ray Battery team. A SEVERE STORM Friday afternoon" an unusually fierce rain storm visited this vicinity accompanied by thunder and lightning and a tcrifflic wind that was almost a cyclone. Shade and fruit trees were greatly damaged and some builidngs injured. Caspar Vollmer lost the chimney on his house, Floyd Reason's barn was damaged and C. W. Barry's awning was blown down, striking and breaking two large plate windows in the drug store front. The rain fell in torrents for a short time and did some damage to merchandise in the stores where the roofs were not good. The Reason and Reason and W. W. Barnard stores sustained the most loss. A CLOSE CALL Henry Kicc had a narrow escape one day last week. He and bis hired man had unloaded a load of hay Iri the barn and after backing the team out one of the horses became unmanageable and started to run. The wagon was overturned, both occupants underneath. The young managed to crawl out and moved the box so that Mr. Kice could be removed. He was badly shaken up and suffered a sprained wrist ntid other minor injuries.

Have you never heard this fascinating tradition? Why, near the northern end of Lake Micbigan, just out of the historic straits of Mackinac, thare is a dark, primeval wood of pine and hemlock back from the shining beach. And from this wood ia time of storm on the water comes the beat of an Indian drum—one beat for every life that goes out as ships go down. Never, say* tradition, has this Indian drum missed the exact count. Nevertheless, once was the drum one beat short—as it seemed to those who go down to the inland sea in ships. But in the end its count was verified. And this ia the story of why the Indian drum boomed but twenty-four times when the new stee! freighter Miwaka went down in 1895 with twenty-five who never made port. CHAPTER I. The Man Whom the Storm Haunted. Near the northern end ot Lake Michigan, where the bluff-bowed orecarrier* and the big, low-lying, wheatladen ateel freighters from Lake Superior push out from the Straitg of Mackinac and dispute the right o t way, In the island-divided channel, with the white-and-gold, electric-lighted, wireless-equipped passenger steam- •rs bound .for Detroit and Buffalo, there la a copse of pine and hemlock back from the shingly beach. From this copse—dark, blue, primeval, silent at most times as when the Great Manitou ruled his inland waters—there comes at time of storm a sound like the booming of an old Indian drum. This drum beat, so the tradition says, whenever the lake took a life; and, as a sign perhaps that It Is still the Man 1 ton who rules the waters In spite ef all the commerce of the cities, the drum still beats Its roll for every ship lest on the lake, one beat for every Mfe. So—men say—they heard and counted the beatings of the drum to thirty- Ire upon the hour when, as afterward they learned, the great steel steamer Wenota sank with twenty-four of its erew rfhd eleven passengers; so—men amy—they heard tht requiem of the firs who went down with the schooner Grant; and of the seventeen lost with the Susan Hart; and so of a score of •hips mora. Ones only, it Is told, has the drum counted wrong. At the height of the great storm of December, 1895, the drum beat the roll of a sinking ship. One, two, three—the hearers counted the drum •eats, time and again, in their Intermittent booming, to twenty-four. They waited, therefore, for report of a ship loot with twenty-four lives; no such newt cmaae. The new steel freighter Miwaka, on her maiden trip during the storm with twenty-five—not twenty- four—-aboard never made her port; • o news was ever heard from her; no wreckage ever was found. On this account, throughout the families whose fathers, brothers and sons were the •facers and crew of the Miwaka, there stirred for a time a desperate belief that one of the- men on the Miwaka was saved; that somewhere, somehow, he was alive and might return, f h e day of the destruction of the Miwaka was fixed as December 8 by the tlrae at which she passed the government lookout at the straits; the hour was fixed as five o'clock in the morning •nly by the sounding of the drum.. • e • • • » • Btorm—the stinging, frozen sleet •lash of the February norther whistling down the floe-jammed length of the lake—was assaulting Chicago. Sn heavy was this frost on the panes of the Fort Dearborn club—one of the ataideet of the down-town clubs for seen that the great log fires biasing on the open hearths added appreciable light as well at warmth to the rooms. The few members present at this hour of the afternoon showed by their buy attitudes and the desnltorineas of their conversation the dulling of vitality which warmth and shelter bring oa a day of cold and storm. On essa, however, the storm had had a eontrmsy affect With swift, uneven steps to paced BOW one room, now another; from time to time he stopped abruptly by a window, scraped from it with finger nafl the frost, stared out far aa Instant through the Uttle openhag to had made, then resumed as abruptly alt a e r o o s pacing with a manner so uneasy and distraught that, hit arrival at the dub an hour •one «voa among those who kiss tost tad ventured te speak The man who was pacing restlessly and alone the rooms of the Fort Dearborn club on this stormy afternoon was the man who, to most people, bodied forth the life underlying all other commerce thereabouts but the least known, the life of the lakes. The lakes, which mark unmistakably those who get their living from them, had put their marks on him. Though he was slight in frame with a spare, almost ascetic leanness, he had the wiry strength and endurance of the man whose youth had been passed upon the water. He was very close to sixty now, but his thick, straight hair was still Jet black except for a slash of pure white above one temple; his brows were black above his deep blue eyes. His acquaintances, In explaining him to strangers, said he had lived too much by himself of late; he and one man servant shared the great house which had been unchanged—and In which nothing appeared to have needed replacing—since his wife left him, suddenly and unaccountably, about twenty years before. People said he looked more French, referring to his father who was known to have been a skin-hunter north of Lake Superior In the '80s but who later married an English girl at Mackinac and settled down to become a trader in the woods of the North penlnwula, where Benjamin Corvst was bom. During his boyhood meg came to the peninsula to cut timber; young Corvet worked with them and began building shlpa. Thirty-five years ago he had been only one of the kandreds with his fortune in the fate ei a single bottom; but today In Cleveland, in Duluth, In Chicago, more than a score of great steamers under the names of various Interdependent companies were owned or controlled by him and his two partners, 3herrUl and young Spearman. He was a quiet, gentle-mannered man. At times, however, he suffered ,!««•<» *./*•>•* For Nesrly an Hour the Quarrel Continued, With Intermitted Truces ef fillenos. from fits ef intense irritability, and these of late had Increased in frequency and violence. It had been noticed that these outbursts occurred generally st times of storm upon the lake, but the mora threat of financial loot through the destruction of one or • • e a more of his shlpa was not aow enough to cause them; K was believed that they were the result of tome obscure physical reaetioB to the storm. and that this had grown upon him aa he grew older. Today his Irritability waa so marked, his uneasiness so much greater than anyone had aeon it before, that the attendant whom Corvet had sent, a half hour earlier, to reserve his usual table for him in the grill—•The table by the second window"— had started away without daring to ask whether the table was to be set for one or more. Corvet himself had corrected the omission: "For two," he had shot after the man. The tables, at this hour, were all unoccupied. Corvet crossed to the one he had reserved and sat down; he turned Immediately to the window at his side and scraped on It a little clear opening through which he could see the storm outside. Ten m!nut3a later he looked up sharply but did not rise, as the man he had been awaiting— Spearman, the younger of his two partners—came In. Spearman seated himself, his big. powerful hands clasped on the table, his gray eyes studying Corvet closely. The waiter took the order and went away. When he returned, the two men were obviously In bitter quarrel. Corvet's tone, low pitched but violent, sounded steadily In the room, though his words were inaudible. The waiter, as he set the food upon the table, felt relief that Corvet's outburst had fallen on other shoulders than his. For nearly an hour the quarrel continued with Intermitted truces of silence. The waiter, listening, as waiters always do, caught at times single sentences. "You have had that Idea for some time?" he heard from Corvet. "We have had an understanding for more than a month.'* "How definite?" Spearman's answer was not audible, but it more Intensely agitated Corvet; he dropped his fork and, after that, made no pretense of eating. The waiter, following this, caught only single words. "Sherrill"—that, of course, was the other partner. "Constance"— that was Sherrlll's daughter. The other names he heard were names of ships. But, as the quarrel went on, the manners of the two men changed; Spearman, who at first had been assalled by Corvet now was assailing him. Corvet sat back in his seat, while Spearman pulled at his cigar and now and then took It from his lips and gestured with It between his fingers, as he Jerked some ejaculation across the table. Corvet leaned over to the frosted window, as he had doo^ when alono, and looked out Spearman shot a comment which made Corvet wince and draw back from the window; then Spearman rose. Corvet looked up at him once and asked a question, to which Spearman replied with a snap of the burnt match down on the table; he turned abruptly and strode from the room. Corvet sat motionless. The revulsion to self-control, sometimes even to apology, which ordinarily followed Corvet's bursts of Irritation had not come to him; his agitation plainly had increased. He pushed from him his uneaten luncheon and got up slowly. He went out to the coat room, where the attendant handed him his eoat and hat He winced as he stepped out Into the smarting, blinding swirl of sleet, but his shrinking was not physical; it wss mental, the unconscious reaction to some thought the storm called up. The hour was barely four o'clock, but so dark was it with the storm that the shop windows were lit; motorcars, slipping and skidding up the broad boulevard, with headlights burning, kept their signals clattering constantly to warn other drivers blinded by the snow. The sleet-swept sidewalks were almost deserted; here or there, before a hotel or one of the shops, a limousine came to the curb, and the passengers dashed swiftly serosa the walk to shelter. Corvet turned northward along Michigan avenue, facing Into the gale. The sleet beat upon his face and lodged ia the folds of his clothing without his heeding It He continued to go north. He had not seemed, in the beginning, to have made conscious choice of this direction ; but now he was following It purposely. He stopped once at a shop which sold men's things to make a telephone call. He asked for Miss Sherrill when the number answered; but he did not wish to speak to ber, he said; he wanted merely to be sure she would be there if be stopped in to see her tt> half an hour. Then—north again. He crossed the bridge. Now. fifteen minutes later, he came In sight of the lake once more. Great houses, the Sherrill house among them, here face the Drive, the bridle path, the strip of park, and the wide stone esplansde which edges the lake. Covert crossed to this esp)s aade. He did not stop at the tberrlll house or look toward It. but went on fully a ajuarter of a udle beyond It; thea he came back, and with aa oddly strained and queer expression and attitude, be stood staring out into the lake. Suddenly . he turned. Constance Sherrill, seeing him from a window of ber home, had caught a cape about her and run out to him. "Uncle Benny I" she hailed him with the affectionate name she had used with her father's partner since she was a baby. "Uncle Benny, aren't you coming in?" "Yea,w he said vaguely. "Yea, of course." He made no move but remained staring at her. "Connie I" he 8he Thought "No, Father* exclaimed suddenly, with strange reproach to himself In his tone. "Connie! Dear little Connie!" "Why?" she asked hlra . "Uncle Benny, what's the matter?" "Has Spearman been here today?" he asked, not looking at her. "To see father?" "No; to see you." "No." He seized her wrist *T>on't see him, when he comes!" he,commanded. "Uncle Benny!" "Don't see him tH Corvet repeated. "He's asked you to marry him, hasn't he?" Connie could not refuse the answer. "Yes." "And y o u r "Why—why, Uncle Benny, I haven't answered htpa yet" "Then don't—don't, do you understand, Connie?*' She hesitated, frightened for him. "I'll—HI tell you before I see him, if you want me to, Uncle Benny," she granted. "But If you shouldn't be able to tell me then, Connie; If you shouldn't— want to then?** The humility of his' look perplexed her; if he had been any other man—any man except Uncle Benny—she would have thought some shameful and terrifying threat hung over him; but he broke off sharply. **f must go home," be said uncertainly. "I must go home; thnn 1*11 come back. Connie, you won't give him an answer t»ll I come back, will you?** "No.H He got ' her promise, half frightened, half bewildered; then he turned at once and went swiftly away from her. She ran back to the door of her father's house. From there she saw him tvach the corner and turn west to go t« Astor street He was walking rapidly and did not hesitate. How strangely he had acted! Constance's uneasiness Increased when the afternoon and evening passed without his coming back to see her as he had promised, but she reflected he had not set an*y definite time when she was to expect him. During the night her anxiety grew still greater; and In the morning she called his house up on the telephone, but the call was unanswered. An hour later, she called again; still getting no result, she called her father at his office, and told hta of her anxiety about Uncle Benny, but without repeating what Uncle Benny had said to her or the promise she had made to him. Her father made light of her fears: Uncle Benny, he reminded her, often acted queerly In bad weather. Only partly reassured, she called Uncle Benny's house several more times during the morning, hut still got no rerJy; and after luncheon she called her father again, to tell him that she had re solved to get some one to go over to the h/*use with her. Her father, to her surprise, forbade this rather sharply; his voice, she realised, was agitated and excited, and she aaked him the reason; but instead of answering her, he made her repeat to him ber conversation of the afternoon before with Uncle Benny* and now he questioned her closely about It But when the, to her turn, tried to question htm, be merely put her off and told ber not to worry. in the late aiterno>>v;^as dusk was drawing into dajkTsbe stood at the window,, with,-tine of those delusive hopes ,which come during anxiety that because it was the time of day at which she had seen Uncle Benny walking, by the lake the day before, she might see him there again, when she saw her father's motor approaching. It was coming from the north, not from the south as it would have been If he was coming from his office or his club, and It had turned Into the Drive from the west She knew, therefore, that he was coming from" Uncle Benny's house, and, as the car swerved and wheeled in, she ran out into the hall to meet htm. He came In without taking off hat or coat; she could see that he was perturbed, greatly agitated. "What Is It, father?" she demanded. "What has happenedT "I do not know, my dear." "It Is something—something that has happened to Uncle Benny?" "I am afraid so, dear—yes. But I do not know what it is that has happened, or I would fell you." He put his arm about her and drew her into a room opening off the hall— his study. He made her repeat again to him the conversation she had had with Uncle Benny and tell him how he had acted ; but she saw that what she tnJd him did not help hlra. Then he drew her toward him. "Tell me, little daughter. You have been a great deal with Uncle Benny and hove talked with him; I want you to think carefully. Did you ever hear him speuk of any one called Alan Conrad?" She thought. "No. father." "No 'reference either to any one living In Kansas, or a town there called Blue Rapids?" "No, fnther. Who is Alan Conrad?" "I do not know, dear. 1 never heard the name until to-day, and Harry Spearman hod never heard It. But it appears to be Intimately connected in some way with what • was troubling Uncle Benny yesterday. He wrote a letter yesterday to Alan Conrad In Blue Kaplds and mailed It himself; and afterward he tried to get it back, but It already had been taken up and was on its way. I have not been able to learn anything more about the letter than that. To-day that name, Alan Conrad, came to me In quite another way, In a way which makes It certain that It Is closely connected with whatever has happened to Uncle Benny. You are quite sure you never heard him mention It, dear?" "Quite sure, father." He released her and. stllJ In his hat and coat, went swiftly up the stalri. She ran after him and found him standing before I highboy In his dressing room. He unlocked a drawer In the highboy, and from within the drawer he took a key. Then, still disregarding her, he hurried back downstairs. As she followed him, she caught up a wrap and pulled It around her. Ht had told the chauffeur, she realized now, to wslt; but as he reached the door, he turned and stopped her. "I would rather you did not come with me, little daughter. I do not know at all what It Is that has happened—] wUt let you know as soon as I find out." The finality In his tone stopped her from argument. As the house door and then the door of the limousine closed after him, she went back toward the window, slowly taking off the wrnp. For the moment she found*It difficult to think. Something had happened to Uncle Benny, something terrible, dreadful for those who loved hlra; that was plain, though only the fact and not Its nature was known to her or to her fnther; and that something was connected—Intimately connected, her father had' said—with a name which no one who knew Uncle Benny ever heard before, with the name of Alan Conrad of Blue Rapids, Kansas. Who was this Alan Conrad, and what could his connection be with Uncle Benny so to precipitate disaster upon him? "I've come to %ee Mr. Corvet, Mr. Benjamin Corvet P* (TU B& CONTINUED.)

C H I E F RAIN-IN-THE-FACE GOT UNDESERVED FAME WITH the possible exception of Sitting Bull and Curley, Custer's Crow scout, more misinformation has been written about Ruin-ln-The-Face (Itioruagaju) chief of the Uunkpapae than any other Indian who ever lived. When he died September 12, 19()5, the word was flashed ail over the country that "the Indian who killed General Custer is dead." During the Stanley expedition up the Yellowstone In 1873, Ualn-In-The- Face murderwd two civilians who had rtrayed from Custer's command, a crime for which he was arrested by Capt. Tom Custer a year later and Imprisoned at Fort Abraham Lincoln, N. D. He escaped and after joining the host Lies under Sitting Bull he is said to have sent word back to the fort that he would have his revenge on the whole Custer family and on Captain Tom in particular. Out of this threat grew the story that Itain-ln-The-Face after the battle of Little Big Morn had cut out Tom Custer's henrt and eaten a piece of It. Mrs. Custer in her book "Boots and Saddles" makes such an assertion, but Knin-In-Tbe-Face In telling his life glory to Dr. Charles A. Eastman, the noted Sioux writer, denied any such deed and it Is reasonable to believe that the Hunkpapa warrior would tell a member of his own race the truth. More than that. Dr. Porter and General Benteen, who found .Tom Custer's body after the battle, have stated positively that he was not mutilated Jn thl§ way. « N In Longfellow's poem "The Revenge of Ilain-In-The-Face," he repeats the story, although he makes Gen. George Custer the victim of the atrocity Instead of Tom Custer. This may be t h t origin of the yarn that Knln-In-The- Fuce was the slayer of Custer. The circumstances connected with his killing the two civilians from Cutter's command showed that he was a ruthless, savage warrior. His bold attack on Fort Tntten, N. D.. In 1866 with two companions, an act of sheer bravado growing out of a dare, and his endurance of the worst tortures of the fsun Dance without a murmur proved that he was a man utterly indifferent to pain, danger or death. After the Sioux wars were over Rain-In-The-Face settled on the Standing Hock reservation and in 1886 applied for admission to the Hampton school, an effort which Inspired a ,second poem about him—this time from the pen of another great American poet, John G. Whlttler. On the reservation Raln-In-The-Face became an Indian policeman. CROW KING, CHIEF WHO DEFIED MEDICINE MEN CRAZY HORSE was brave with a berserker recklessness; Sitting Bull's daring was tempered with prudence; but another Sioux chief showed a higher form of courage—the courage to defy superstition and scoff at the pretensions of the medicine naen at the height of their power among his people. He was Crow King or The Crow (Kangi—"crow;" Vatapi— "king" or "chief) ot the Hunkpapa*. High Bear, Crow King's brother, had fallen ill of tuberculosis which the big medicine man of the Hunkpapas called the evil spirit, whereupon Crow King told him to cast it out and he would pay him well. Although the medicine man used all his charms and incantations, High Bear still coughed. So the sorcerer changed his "medicine." frequently finding a new excuse for doing so and always charging Crow King u certain number of ponies for each new charm used. Other medicine men were called in and soon Crow King's herd was almost wiped out Then High Bear died. Crpw King decided 'to put these quacks out of business. He summoned all of them to a feast, where he asked to be allowed to see the charm by which each worked bis wonders. Each one proudly produced his fetish—a bear's claw, a rabbit's foot, a wolfs eye and a weasel's skin. Then Crow King calmly dumped them Into the Are. The medicine men were horrified; they expected to see the dottier drop dead. But Crow King defied them to prove the potency of their charms by bringing vengeance down upon hrrn. From that day the power of the medicine men among the Sioux waned. Crow King had been a great warrior of the Hunkpapas. He had fought at Fort Phil-Kearney. At the Battle of Little Big Horn he had led the first charge which swept over the hill where Custer made hi* last stand, and ti*e shock of this onset had so shattered the resistance of Custer's men that their annihilation a few minutes infer was made certain. He had fled to Canada with Sitting Brill, but later he had denounced that leader a s a coward' and a- fraud and had brought his band back to the United 8tAtes to surrender. When he settled on Standing Rock reservation he became a leader of the progressive element among the Hunkpapas. Beams* of his prowess in battle and his statesmanship they had honored him. but to the day of his death, is 188¾. they held him in highest esteem beeirtee by ASM WHO SCFSSS 1» freed t h e n frev superstition EXPERIMENTAL HIGHWAY WORK AT ARLINGTON WILL BE CONTINUED .IXBSBM?

(Prepared by othf e AUgnriicteudlt uSreta.)t es Department A comprehensive program of roadbuilding research and Investigation during the coming season at the Arlington Experimental station near Washington, D. C , is announced by the bureau pf public roads of the United States Department of Agriculture. Impact tests on pavements, subgrade studies and other experiments, which last yeur aroused much Interest among engineers, will be continued as well as several other lines of work underway last year and new ones to be started. Bituminous wearing surfaces are to be investigated to determine the reason for the formation of waves and irregularities and to settle mooted questions concerning the proper mixture and the proper mineral aggregates to be used in bituminous roads. More than 30 sections of different types of bituminous construction will be butlt. These will include mixtures of different mechanical grading and with different percentages of bitumen of several degrees of hardness. Sections are being constructed on a circular, track about 600 feet In circumference, the roadway being 13 feet wide. On .this roadway will be operated a 5- ton army truck equipped with solid tires. The truck will be operated In a varying path so as to cover practically the entire width of the roudway and will travel at a speed of from 12 to 15 miles an iiour for five or six months, or until anme results are obtained leading to the solution of the problems involved. Resistance to Wear. There is considerable discussion as to what is the proper crUerimv to be used in selecting and judging concrete aggregates that will offer the greatest amount of resistance to wear. At the present time judgment i.s based i>n wear tests made in the laboratory and upon the compressive strength of concrete^ also upon the structural strength of concrete beams constructed and broken in the laboratory. The comparison of the wear of concrete in actual use on road surfaces with the indications obtained in laboratory experiments is not wholly satisfactory, To throw more light on this subject a wear test is to be made with the conditions approximating those actually found on the road. This test will include about 05 sections of concrete wearing surface, each section being of a different quality of concrete, the qualities being varied by virtue of the different aggregates used, different proportions in the mixture and amount of mixing water. These sections are to be constructed on a circular runway about 650 feet in circumference, the runway being 4 feet wide. On this runway will be operated a specially constructed car with two truck wheels equipped with solid rubber tires and loaded to represent a truck. The car will be guided by small railroad rails to hold It in position, the power being applied by means of an electric motor to the rear wheel. This apparatus will be operated around the circular runway at a speed of probably 20 miles an hour. The test will involve the use of truck wheels equipped with different kinds of tires and will Include the use of non-skid chains. A steel-tired wheel will probably also be used to get the effect of an accelerated wear test. The object of this experiment Is to determine the relative wear of the different concrete sections when subjected to traffic equipped with different types of wheel, also to furnish a comparison between actual servici conditions and laboratory tests. Thii test will be in operation continuously beginning some time in June. Impact on Roads 8tudied. In a rather elaborate series of experiments, the bureau has studied impact of trucks on roads, and has determined approximately the magnitude uf Impact force under different truck and road conditions. The effect ot such impact on concrete pavements and several types of road on concrete base was studied and reported on last year. This series of experiments is to be continued and enlarged. Over 120 road sections or slabs have been constructed in duplicate series. Oue series is on a carefully drained dry subgrade; the other series is on the same kind of subgrade except that it is kept wet and as nearly saturated as possible by means of an underlying drain tile and side ditches filled with water. The testing of these slabs will begin some time during the month of May and will be by means of a new impact machine now being constructed which simulates the action of the rear wheel of a truck. On this machine may be mounted truck wheels of different sizes and weights carrying different kinds of truck tires. This apparatus may be so operated as to reproduce the different loading and equipment conditions of a large variety of trucks. The slabs will be hammered by means of this machine in the center, on the corners, and on the sides so as to obtain the relative strength under these different conditions. Subsoil Investigations are being continued for the purpose of studying and Investigating rotative stability, moisture condition, and supporting value. Different methods of determining'the bearing value of soils are also beln* studied, that is, as to whether small or lar^e areas should be used in determining the relative bearing value, The warping effect of temperature and moisture conditions on concrete pavements is also being investigated. Temperatures and movement are belnc recorded graphically on continuous charts. In addition to these temperature and movement measurements the pressures on the subgrade under the concrete slab are obtained by means of soil pressure cells. This Investigation will give some definite Information concerning the support offered by subgrades to rigid concrete roads, This investigation has been under way for some time and will continue probably for a year or more. The transmission of loads through different types of pavements to the subgrade is being investigated by means of soil pressure cells placed on the subgrade under the pavements. This test will also serve to show the relative support offered to brick and other types of block pavement by concrete bases and broken stone bases. This investigation has been under way for about one year and will continue for some time to come. A large number of prominent engineers and others interested In road work have visited the Arlington Experimental station to witness the preparation and conduct of these experiments. It Is Intended to have all these projects In full operation by the middle of June. Visitors are always welcome and those in charge of the work are always glad to give any information desired about the experiments. RAT PEST IS MOST SERIOUS Cause of Considerable Loss to Farmer and Poultryman—Plan to Eradicate Them. Rats are multiplying In numbers every year In spite of all of our ratkilling campaigns and propaganda. This pest is one of the most serious sources of loss to the farmer and poultryman. Every effort should be made to free the premises of them, and the fact that they seem to hold their own shonid. only be the signal for redoubling our efforts against them.

The Young Mother. •THE ILL§ OF INFANTS AND CHILDREN should be so well known to the . youngest of mothers that a reminder or a repetition of the symptoms of illness seems unnecessaryf vet there are some mothers who overlook a feverish condition, a little colic, or a disposition to be irritable. If not corrected they may lead to serious sickness. And to correct them, to bring Baby back to its happy self, is so easy by the use of Castoria—a medicine prepared just for infants and children. It will regulate the bowels (not force them), aid digestion and so bring quiet and rest. Fletcher's'Castoria has been doing this for over 30 years; regulating the stomach and bowels of infants and children. It has replaced the nauseating Castor Oil, so-called Soothing Syrups, poisonous Paregoric and other vicious concoctions in.the homes of true and honest mothers—mothers who love their children.

Truth shows no favors, fears no enemies. From the inception of Fletcher's Castoria, Truth has been the watchword, and to the conscientious adherence to this motto in the preparation of Fletcher's Castoria as weU as in its advertising is due the secret of its popular demand. AH imitations, aU substitutes, all just-as-good preparations lack the element of Truth, lack the righteousness of being, lack aU semblance even in the words of those who would deceive. And yout Mothers, mothers with the fate of the World in your hands, can you be deceived? Certainly not. Fletcher's Castoria Is prepared for Infants and Children. It is distinctly a remedy for the little-ones. The BABY'S need for a medicine to take the place of Castor Oil, Paregoric and Soothing Symps was the sole thought that led to its discovery. Never try to correct BABY'S troubles with a medicine that you would use for yourself. MOTHERS SHOULD READ THE BOOKLET THAT IS AROUND EVERY BOTTLE OF FLETCHER'S CASTORIA GENUINE C A S T O R I A ALWAYS Bears the Signature of Exact Copy of Wrapper.

A CLOSE CALL A party of young people from YJ>M 1, nti eauiping at Portanc Pake are not at the present time having as much pleasure as they enjoyed S u n d a s . On that da\ they had fun galore until their luck changed. Dressed in bathing suits that would not have been a p p r o \ e d by their j^ra ndmothers they drove around the country and through Pinckney in an undignified search of fun. However one young man could not stand the pace and became temporarily afflicted with alcoholic paralysis of the brain. His friends became alarmed and one of the party whom we will call Smith—because that is a common name and his friends beg that his real name be not published—asked Karl Baughn to accompany him to get Dr. Sigler to tire stricken man as soon as possible. On the way, near the W. C. Miller farm, the Buick speeding at 60 miles an hour became unmanageable u n d e r the driving of Smith. Mr. Baughn rem o n s t r a t e d with the driver to no avail and then decided -to j u m p . At the speed of 60 miles an hour this j u m p - ing is a dangerous undertaking but E a r l curled himself up like a bail and vacated the car. After striking the ground he rolled for some distance accompanied by the speeding car. But the momentum was soon lost and E a r l straightened up uninjured except for a few superficial bruises. The driver, however, did not fare as well, as the car wobbling along at nearly double the lawful speed limit lost a front wheel and soon came to a halt. Mr. Baughn assisted thr W a s h t e n a w county speed demon and he was taken to the Sanitarium where Dr. 11. F. S i l - ler looked after his many wounds and bruises. The young hero will live and regret the accident but will not really enjoy life for some time. Meanwhile the mentally paralysed young man personally came down to sec the Doctor, after having received first aid t r e a t m e n t in the nature of a slap in the face, and was finally persuaded to subdue his exhilaration. His friends begged that no names be published and out of consideration of .their perfectly respectable relatives th*\v arc not published at this time.

( P r e p a r e d hy the United Statea D e p a x t m e n t of A g r i c u l t u r e . ) Woodland owners many times a r e confronted with t h e problem of when to sell standing timber and when to r u t it for use on t h e farm. Experience h a s demonstrated that In some localities it unquestionably pays the f a n n e r better at all times to sell, particularly the mure valuable kinds of wood. For example, in t h e central tiardwood region farmers sell their select yellow poplar t r e e s profitably and with the money buy and haul back to t h e farm for distances of from four to eijrht miles southern pine siding for their houses a n d barns. On the other hand, there a r e too nft^n instances where one finds choice white oak of the best quality, suitable for veneer or furniture stock sawed u p :nt^> posts for the farm. Keep in Touch W i t h Market. It would be well for t h e owner to keep in touch with m a r k e t conditions, so lie may market his product to t h e 'iest advantage. With r a n d y an ex- '•eption t h e timber is not dyiutt, decay- 'nj: or "troinir back" by fundus or insect attack at tin1 rapid rate alleged I'.v buyers, who, obviously, desire t<> buy a s cheaply as possible. Unless t is ovfrmature it is increasing yearly n volutue and value. <'utiing during llie early period of growth, says the l':iited States Department of Agriculture, often represents a real sacrifice in financial re- ;urns. T h e approximate ago at which trees should be eui in order to obtain the highest returns a year is very diifct'cnt for different species, Thus co'itonwooii, ash, hickory and yellow poplar became coiunieroially valuable at much earlier ages than white oak and black walnut. When other farm work is least pressing many f a n n e r s find it profitable to turn their attention to estiniilt- .IILT. measuring, cut ting, market ing and selling their timber, Spare help and rime to supervise t h e work make the winter a favorable season for this. It is easier to haul h ^ s on the snow than over ordinary roads, and the logs a r e less liable tluin at any other time of the year to deteriorate quickly through attacks of Insecis or fungi, Best Method of Selling. The choice of methods of selling depends largely uji*on t h e kind of timber and the owner's knowledge of its value, his past experience and t h e condition of the market. Timber products a r e sold either in the standing tree or In a more or less roughly manufactured condition. Except when sold by the lot or lump, sales a r e based upon a measure by log scale or lumber tally or upon individual coiftit of units of designated size or character. Timber sold by t h e lot, boundary, or tract is either "lumped off" to include a designated tract or sold nn an acreage basis. This method has prevailed over all others, particularly in t h e rougher and less-settled districts. As a rule It is strongly favored by t h e purchaser because in such a transaction his better knowledge of both timber yields and values gives him an advantage over t h e a v e r a g e owner. Many examples of t h e sacrifice by the owner of a large share of t h e value of t h e timber can be found in nearly any wooded region. On account of greater competition among purchasers and a bettor understanding on the part of the owners of timber values, sales of standing timber by the lot or lump a r e now being made with better proiit than formerly. In using this method it i s very important, in advance of t h e sale, first to secure a good estimate of the quantity, quality and unit value of each kind of product In the s t a n d ; then to get bids from a s many buyers a s possible; and, finally, to have a n agreement clearly specifying t h e restrictions in regard to t h e manner and amount of cutting so a s not to impair the producing power of t h e forest. T h e sale niny Include only trees above n specified minimum diameter, or such trees as have been previously marked by the owner for cutting. When properly safeguarded, this Becomes one of the safest and most satisfactory of all methods of selling and should receive full consideration when sales are contemplated. Place Restriction*. Selling by lump eliminates the anxiety and misunderstandings attending salf»a by log-scale measurement. If competition Is keen, it is likely t h a t nenrly or qnite the full value of t h e timber will be reached in the bids. By j this method, however, t h e owner foregot « the opportunity of profitable employment for himself and Ids t e a m s which he would have If he logged t b e material and sold It after hauling It to t h e mill or shipping point. U n l e « r e s f i c t e d by t h e t e r m i of the agreement, t h e buyer usually cuta very closely. Selling by t h e lot Is therefore u good method to u s e w h e r e the owner intends to cle'ir t h e land for other uses. Hut if t h e land is to be kept in timber, t h e owner should include provisions in t h e contract of sale to retain t h e young, vigorous growing timber and provide for a future crop. The Importance of care in cutting, on account of its effect upon succeeding growth and production of the stand, can hardly be overstated. GAS-TAR TREATMENT PROTECTS CONCRETE Bureau of Public Roads Gives Results of Tests. Fluid By-Product of Artificial Gar Plants Proven Satisfactory in Preserving Drajn Tile Against Alkali. (Prepared by tbt> t'nlted States Department uf Agriculture.) In its seareli tor a m e a n s of protecting l'ortland cement concrete against t h e action of alkaline waters. the bureau of public roads, United States Department of Agriculture, announces promising results from treatment with a very lluid crude water-gas tar, such as may be obtained as a byproduct from many artificial gas plants. So successful have t h e tests been that further investigations of the alkali-resisting properties of tartreated concrete and m o r t a r a r e under way and the protective effect of water gas t a r o n mass concrete structures is being studied. T h e t r e a t m e n t consists of simply immersing t h e concrete in t h e liquid, which is soaked up, even by u dense concrete. Cement drain tile treated in tliis way and stored from six to eight months in a strong alkali solution have shown no indication of disintegration, and samples tested for tensile strength were as strong as those stored in pure water. On the other hand, untreated samples showed both disintegration and a loss of strength. In eertaia p a r t s of t h e country where alkali salts exist concrete drain tile and concrete s t r u c t u r e s h a v e been attacked. In many such places concrete Is a very desirable material on account of t h e accessibility of t h e materials that go Into it. T h e b u r e a u ' s investigations aim t o devise m e a n s of using concrete with assurance.

What Is It Worth to Change a Tire? On the road changing a tire is not an especially pleasant task. The dust or mud, the grease and grime, the tedious delay—all are things we like to avoid. But the time to think about these things is when you buy the tire—not after the blow-out occurs. For some tires blow out much more easily than other*. Outward appearance counts for little. It is the material in the tire and the construction of it that determines its strength. Goodyear recognizes these facts and* all Goodyear Tires are made of long staple cotton. Take the 30 x 3K Cross Rib Clincher Tire here illustrated, for example. It is made of Arizona cotton, the fibres of which average 1½ inches long. Many 30 z 3 ^ clincher tires are made of short staple cotton from H ^cb to I X inches long. This means less strength and greater danger of blow-outs—more tire troubles. Yet this high grade guaranteed Goodyear Tire costs only $10.95. You can buy some tires for even less than this but none with the fine materials and construction of this one. Can you afford to take a chance on more frequent tire troubles for the sake of the slightly lower price of cheaper tilts?

M. Mac LAC H LAN 10 Jefferson Avenue E. Detroit. Hlea. BOLAND, ALIAS GARDNER Copyright by The Wbetltr Syndlc.ua, Inc. WHEN Hyman and Bess, dealers in cloaks and suits an State street, Albany, N. Y., sent a check for $38.77 to Rels and Blum, garment manufacturers In New York city, they didn't have the slightest idea that they were starting a chain of evidence which would land one of the cleverest crooks In America behind the bars. A few days later, before the New York Arm had had time to report the nonarrival of the check and thus permit Hyman and Hess to look into the matter, a young man came into the National Commercial bank in Albany and presented a check for $380, made out to "Bearer." The date on the check, filled in with a rubber stump, corresponded to the day on which it was presented, and the man who handed it to the paying teller mentioned casually that the check "was to cover an option" and that he had to hurry back to New York in order to complete the transaction. The paying teller, feeling certain that the signature was genuine, cashed the check, and the man who had presented It walked out of the bank with $380 In his pocket. When Hyman and Hess had their ac* count balanced they found that they were exactly $380 short—for the original check had never reached its New York destination, but hud been lifted out of the mail box by one of a gang of clever criminals, the body of the check erased with an ink eradicator and the date and amount tilled in oil top of the original signature. "Only one man in the country could have done that and gotten away with it," growled George A. Fuller, assistant superintendent of the Plnkerton Detective agency, when the bunk called the details of the case to his attention "It's Boland's work!" "Yes, Roland," replied Fuller. "Or Gardner, as lie sometimes calls himself. He's got a regular organization for tliis sort of thing. Trains boys to loot the mail boxes, washes the checks with an acid preparation of his own invention, writes in a higher amount, makes them payable to 'Bearer,' and then another of his tools cashes them." "If you know so much about the man," asked the ama/.ed banker, "why hasn't he been arrested long before this'.-" "It's easy enough to arrest a man," was Fuller's reply, "but it is sometimes very difficult to convict him. So far as Hie actual check-raising goes, I'oland plays a lone hand. What's more, he pays his men well, and take:-, care of tlit'iu if they happen to get caught. So far, none of "em has turned state's e\ iiloiice, and until they do—or until we '•atch Boluiui red-handed — there's nothing to do bur be careful. We've got our eyes on him. He can't move without our knowing it. Warned by Hyman and Hess check j that the Boland outfit was once more conducting operations in New York state, the Pinkertnn man kept close watch on all persons suspected of belonging to the organizations, with the result that three men were arrested and sentenced to terms in prison. But all of them steadfastly refused to implicate the "man higher up." Finally Boland and three of his associates were arrested in Boston, after Fuller had shadowed a boy whom he suspected of robbing a mall box. Dano, the boy, and Devlne, another of the organization, drew short terms for petty larceny, but Boland escaped on account of a technicality, and moved to New York where he tried to continue his operations. But the New York police and particularly Commissioner George S. Dougherty, made things so difficult, that he was soon reduced to the expedient of securing checks wherever he could—a necessity which led to the fatal slip which Fuller had predicted. Out of the mall box of an up-town apartment house, one of Boland's apprentices secured a check for $50, made out to a real estate company in payment of the rental for one of the apartments. It was child's play for Boland to wash off the original parae and amount and to write in the words "Bearer" and "Two Hundred and Eleven Dollars." Once that was done, he had a perfectly good check (apparently) and he sent one of his men down to the bank on which the check was drawn, with minute Instructions as to the cashing of ft. But the cashier, being suspicious of a check of that size helng made out to "Bearer"—particularly as he knew that the woman whose signature appeared upon it was very careful In her financial dealings —declined to cash It, and Boland's man returned with a story of having been watched and therefore very fearful to approach the paying window. Boland, in a spirit of bravado, again altered the check, this time making it out In the name of "William HathM and set forth to cash the check himself, something which he had never before attempted. One glance at the odd amount—$211.—and the recollection that a check of similar size had been presented-that morning, payable to "Bearer." was enough to convince the paying teller that something wag wrong. The Plnkertons were Immediately notified and Boland was caught, red-handed.

He was discovered in a northbound elevated express, He had remained seated although a woman stood swaying on a strap In front of him. The train was standing at the Fullerton avenue station when he Jumped to his feet, apparently realizing suddenly that his destination had been reached, He started for the door. When the man unit Ids seat it was, logically, taken by the woman. Not for long, however, did she h < ^ it. A second later he was buck—wviously having spotted the station name through the open door. "Pardon me," he said, "that wasn't my station." And he allowed the woman to rise and give him the seat.—Chicago Journal.

His Secret of Success. We know a man who Is noted t o t getting along well In the esteem of Ids employer. When asked how he did it the mun replied: "Well, I always consider that the boss is right, even when he is wrong."—Howard (Kan.) Courant. Mutual Precaution. Girl's father (deliberately)—"Young man, are your Intentions serious?*1 Suitor (hesitatingly)—"Are-er-youn?** Health is Wealth Itself —and depends more upon the selection of proper food than upon anything else. The reason is simple—the right kind of food digests promptly and is absorbed into the blood for building sound tissue; while food that digests slowly may ferment and lead to serious conditions. Grape-Nuts — the delicious cereal food made from whole wheat flour and malted barleyis so easy to digest that even delicate people and young children thrive on it. This is only natural, because Grape-Nuts is baked for 20 hours, which transforms and partially pre-digests the starch elements, resulting in easy digestion and quick assimilation. Served with milk or cream Grape-Nuts is a complete food— and along with its nutritive qualities is that wonderful flavor! "There's a Reason"for G r a p e - N l l t S Sold by grocers everywhere!

TUTTLE SCORES SHERIFFS OFFICE JUDGE DENOUNCES WAYNE DEPUTIES CONVICTED AS BOOTLEGGERS. HEAVY SENTENCES ARE IMPOSED Two of the Deputy Sheriffs Given Four Y.ears in Penitentiary and $20,000 Kines. Detroit—In what court officials and attaches declared was the moBt scathing arraignment ever uttered from the bench of a federal court in Michigan, Judge Arthur J. Tuttle, in the United States court scourged three deputy sheriffs who had just been convicted by a jury of violating the prohibition law, and pilloried the sheriff's office of Wayne county as "crooked" and as an "obstructor of justice". "You men are so crooked that you are a disgrace to yourselves, to manhood and to Wayne county," Judge Tuttle told Deputy Sheriffs James Baker, William Parmenter and Max Corrigan *hen he called them before him for sentence. Then he pronounced sentence as follows: David Baker, four years in the federal penitentiary and $20,000 fine. William Parmenter, four years in the federal penitentiary and 120,000 fine. Max Corrigan, three years in the federal penitentiary and $3,000 fine. James Quick, four years in the federal penitentiary and $4,000 fine. Henry Rives, one year in the Detroit house of correction. Jess Flowers, agent for the rum runners, one year in the Detroit house of correction. Joseph Doffinos, nine months in the Detroit house of correction. The jury in reporting the conviction of Deputy Sheriffs Baker, Corrigan and Parmenter and of Flowers and Doffinos, acquitted Fred Ackley, formerly a deputy sheriff and now a constable in Wyandotte, and Henry Plovis, a farmer, on whose farm the liquor concerned in the case' was "cached"' for a time. Just before passing sentence on the three deputies, Judge Tuttle declared that he regarded it as peculiarly deplorable that "the very office that should hav# kicked you crooks out has, instead, rallied to your support while you have been on trial in this court, from the moment the trial opened until this moment." "I cannot conceive that anyone would believe you to be innocent, and it would be entirely consistent with the past conduct of the sheriff's office to permit you to continue as deputy sheriffs after you have been duly received at the federal penitentiary where I shall consign you when I get around to it." The crime for which Deputy Sheriffs Baker, Parmenter and Corrigan and Quick. Hives, Flowers and Doffinos were convicted, and Ackley and Plovis acquitted, took place May 27, 1920. Through testimony brought out in the three weeks of the trial, it was established that the seven convicted defendants had engaged with Alfred J. Woods, of Amherstburg, Canada, wealthy liquor dealer, to bring 1,600 quarts of whisky to the Detroit shore, to be sold at $90 a case.

STATE ACTS TO CLEAN UP TOWNS TROOPERS ORDERED TO ENP REIGN OF BOOTLEGGERS NEAR DETROIT. CORRUPT OFFICIALS MUST GO Governor Declares Local Police Who Failed to Enforce Laws Will Be Driven Out. Detroit—The threat that state troopers were on the way to the down river towns of Wyandotte, Ecorae, Ford, River Rouge and Lincoln Park to end the reign of bootlegers, blind piggers and other law-breakers proved sufficient to throw the customarily riotous blind pigs of those places into gloom early this week. Gov. Alex J. Groesbeck ordered the troopers to the territory where Sheriff Irving Coffin and the local police are said to have failed to control the situation, and the Governor gave orders that the troopers should determine responsibility for past laxness of law enforcement as well as to see to it that law is now enforced. Almost simultaneously with issuance of the governor's orders, Merlin Wiley, attorney general, announced that he had arranged with Governor G/oesbeck for a conference Sunday morning, at which the whole situation as to the tolerance in Wayne county of bootlegging on an organized commercial basis, and the alleged failure of numerous county enforcement officials to do their duty, will be gone forever. "I have been at my home in Sault Ste. Marie over the Fourth, and am not entirely in touch with the most recent developments in this deplorable -situation but I can say that I am in hearty accord with the governor's attitude, and I will say further that the governor means just what he says when he declares that the law must and shall be enforced," Mr. Wiley said. Then Attorney-General Wiley added: "There are more ways to enforce the law than one. It is not generally known, but it is a fact, that the governor of Michigan, under a law enacted In 1921, can remove any chief of police in the state." Governor Groesbeck said he had directed Colonel Vandercook to send "about 40" state police to do the law enforcing work in which, citizens of the down-river towns say, the proper officials thus far have utterjy failed. When asked what instructions he gave to Colonel Vandercook, the governor replied : "1 told him that the law must be enforced." Sending of the state police followed a long conference beween Governor Groesbeck and Prosecutor Voorhies and it was intimated that the governor's action was taken on the suggestion of the county prosecutor. COURT TO SETTLE JAIL MIXUP Governor and Wayne Prosecutor to Test State's Authority. Detroit—An agreement has been entered into between Gov. Alex J. Groesbeck and Paul W.

PINCKNEY DISPATCH ALAN CONRAD. 8TNOP&I&—Wealthy t n l highly plM*4 in the Chicago business world, Benjamin Corvet Is something of a rtduM and a my s t a r to his associates. After a stordy interview with his partner. Heary Spearman, Corvet seeks Constance •harrill, daughter of his other business partner, Lawrence SherrlU. St* admits Spearman has asked her to marry him a&4 that she hasn't given him an answer. Corvet—" Uncle Benny"—makes her promise not to give an answer "till I come back," Corvet is much agitated and acts strangely. Then he disappears. 8herrlll learns that Oorvet has written to Alan Conrad In Blue Rapids, Kan,, summoning him to Chicago, . None of Corvet'a associates have ever heard of Alan Conrad. i?arT.«c- CHAPTER II — 2 — Who Is Alan Conrad7 The recipient of the letter which Benjamin Corvet had written and U t e r so excitedly attempted to recover, was %sklDg himself a question which wai almost the same as the question which Constance Sherrlll had aaked. He was, the second morning later, waiting for the first of the two dally eastbound train* which stopped at the little Kansas town of Blue Rapid* which he called home. As long as he could look back Into his life, the question, who is this person they call Alan Conrad, and what am I to the man who writes from Chicago, had been the paramount enigma of existence for him. Since he was now twenty-three, as nearly as he had been able to approximate It, and as distinct recoHectlon of Isolated, extraordinary •vents went back to the time when he *wafl five, It was quite eighteen years •lnce he had first noticed the question put to the people who had hlrn in charge: "So this is little Alan Con- Tad. Who is he?" Following the arrival of certain letters, which were distinguished from most others arriving at the house by having no Ink writing on the envelope hut Just a sort of purple or block printing like newspapers, Alan Invariably received a dollar to spend Just as he liked. To be sure, unless "papa" took him to town, there was nothing for him to spend It upon; so, likely enough, tt went Into the square Iron bank, of which the key was lost; but quite often he did spend It according to plans agreed upon among all his friends and, In memory of these occasions and In anticipation of the next, "Alan's dollar" became a community Institution among the children. "Who gives It to you, Alan?" was a question more often asked, as time went on, The only answer Alan coul-d five was, "It comes from Chicago." The post-mark on the envelope, Alan noticed, was always Chicago; that waa all he ever could find out about bis dollar. He was about ten years old when, for a reason as inexplicable as the dollar's coming, the letters with the typewritten addresses and the enclosed money ceased. Except for the loss of the dollar at the end of every second month—a loss much discussed by all the children and not accepted as permanent till more than two years had passed— Alan felt no Immediate results from the cessation of the letters from Chicago. Papa and mama felt them when the farm had to be given up, and the family moved to the town, and papa went to wortc in the woolen mill beside the river. Papa and mama, at first surprised and dismayed by the stopping of the letters, still clung to the hope of the familiar, typewriter-addressed envelope appearing again; but when, after two years, no more money came, resentment which had seen steadily growing against the person who had sent the money began to turn against Alan; and his "parents* told him all they knew about him. In 1896 they had noticed an advertisement for persons to care for a child; they had answered It to the • f l e e ef the newspaper which printed I t In response to the letter a man called upon them and, after seeing t h e m and going around to see their friends, had made arrangements with th*m to take a boy of three, who was i& feod health and came of good people. H e paid In advance board for »\ year and agreed to send a certain fcflMtmt every two months after that tlmex The man brought the boy; whom he called Alan Conrad, and left him. Por seven years the money agreed upon c a m e ; now It had ceased, • a d papa had DO way of finding the nan*—the name given by him appeared to be tctltioua, and be had left no addjees except "general delivery, Chi etgo*—Papa knew nothing more than t h a t He bad advertised in the Chicago papers after the money stopped comiax, «nd be had communicated wtfb every oew named Conrad In or 'Cklette, but be had learned noth- Thna, at the age of thirteen, that what' he fact that be rhare eiae than i s the fflttst browa awuaa was ail that any eaa there caafcl tafl htaa; aad the ftnoerladfe gave paratataace to many Where did he belong? Who waa he? Who waa the man who had brought him there? Had the money ceased coming because the person who sent it was dead? In that case, connection of Alan with the place where he belonged was permanently broken. Or would some other communication from that source reach him some time—if not money, then something else? Would he be sent for some day? Externally, Alan's learning the little that was known about himself made no change in his way of living; he went to the town school, which combined grammar and high schools under one roof; and, as he grew older, he clerked in one of the town stores during vacations and in the evenings. Alan always carried his money home as part payment of those arrears which had mounted up against him since the letters ceased coming. At seventeen, having finished high school, he was clerking officially In Merrill's general store, when the next Tetter came. It was addressed this, time not to papa, but to Alan Conrad. He seized It, tore it open, and a bank draft for fifteen hundred dollars fell out. There was no letter with the enclosure, no word of communication; Just the draft to the order of Alan Conrad. Alan wrote the Chicago bank by which the draft had been Issued; their reply showed that the drRft had been purchased with currency, so there was no record of the identity of the person who had sent It. More than that amount was due for arrears for the seven years during which no money was sent, even when the total which Alan had earned was deducted. So Alan merely endorsed the draft over to "father"; and that fall Jim, Alan's foster brother, went to college. But, when Jim discovered that it not only was possible but planned at the university for a boy to work his way through, Alan went also. Four wonderful years followed. In companionship with educated people; Ideas and manners came to him which he could not have acquired at home: athletics straightened and added bearing to his muscular, well-formed body; his pleasant, strong young face acquired self-reliance and self-control. Life became filled with possibilities for himself which It had never held before. But on his day of graduation he had put away the enterprises he had planned and the dreams he dreamed and, conscious that his debt to father and mother still remained unpaid, he had returned to care for t h e m ; for father's health had failed and Jim, who had opened a law office In Kansas City, could do nothing to help. No more money had followed the draft from Chicago and there had been no communication of any kind; but the receipt of so considerable a sum had revived and Intensified all Alan's speculations about himself. The vague expectation of hlB childhood that sometime, In some way, he would be "sent for"; had grown during the last six years to a definite belief. And now—on the afternoon before— the summons had come. This time, as he tore open the envelope, he saw that beside a check, there was writing within—an uneven and nervous-looking but plainly legible communication In longhand. The letter made no explanation. It told htm, rather than asked him, to come to Chicago, gave minute instructions for the Journey, and advised him to telegraph when he started. The check was for a hundred dollars to pay his expenses. Check and letter were signed by a name completely strange to him. H e was a distinctly attractive looking lad, as he stood now on the station platform of the little town, while the eastbound train rumbled in, and he fingered in his pocket the letter from Chicago. On the train he took the letter from his pocket and for the dozenth time reread i t Was Covert a relative? Was he the man who had sent the remittances when Alan was a little boy, and the one who later had sent the fifteen hundred dollars? Or w a s he merely a go-between, perhaps a lawyer? There w a s no letterhead to give aid in these speculations. The address to which Alan was to come was In Astor street. He had never heard the name of the street before. Was It a business street, Corvet's address in some great office building, perhaps? At Chicago Alan, following the porter with his suitcase from the ear, stepped down among the crowds hurrying to and from the trains. He was not confused, he was only intensely excited. Acting in Implicit accord with the Instructions of the letter, which he knew by heart, he went to the uniformed attendant and engaged a taxi cab—Itself no small experience; there would be no one at the station to meet Mm. the letter had said. He gave the Astor street address and got Into the cab. Jt bad begun to snow heavily. Por a few blocks the taxicab drove north peat more or leas ordinary build* logs, then turned east on a broad boalevard where tall tile and brick end stone structures towered till their roofs were bidden in the snowfall. A *trang* stir and tingle, quite distinct frogs the excitement of the arrival at the station, pricked in Alan's veins, and hastily he dropped the window to his right and gazed o u t The lake, as he had known since his geography days, lay to the east of Chicago; therefore that void out there beyond the park was the lake or, at l e a s t the harbor. A different air seemed to come from i t ; sounds . . . Suddenly it all was shut off; the taxicab, swerving a little, was dashing between business blocks; a row of buildings had risen again upon the right; they broke abruptly to show him a woodenwalled chasm in which flowed the river full of ice with a tug dropping its smokestack as tt cut below the bridge which the cab crossed; buildings on both sides again; then, to the right a roaring, heaving crashing expanse. The sound, Alan knew, had been coming to him as an undertone for many minutes; now it overwhelmed, swallowed all other sound. It was great, not loud; all sound which Alan had heard b*fore, except the soughing cf the wind over his prairies, came from one point; even the monstrous city murmur was centered In comparison with this. Over the lake, as over the land, the soft snowflakes lazily floated down, scarcely stirred by the slightest breeze; that roar was the voice of the water, that awful power its own. Alan choked and gasped for breath, his pulses pounding in his throat; he had snatched off his hat and, leaning out of the window sucked the lake air in his lungs. There had been nothing to make him expect this overwhelming crush of feeling. The lake—he had thought of It, of course, as a great body of water, an Interesting sight for a prairie boy to see; that was all. No physical experience in all his memory had affected him like this; and it was without warning; the strange thing that had stirred within him as the car brought him to the Drive down-town was strengthened now a thousand-fold; it amazed, halffrightened, half dizzied him. Now, as the motor suddenly swung around a corner and shut the sight of the lake from him, Alan sat back breathless. The car swerved to the east cur* about the middle of the block and came to a stop. The house before which It had halted was a large stone house of quiet, good design; It was some generation older, apparently, than the houses OH each side of It, which were brick and terra cotta of recent fashionable architecture; Alan only glanced at them long enough to get that Impression before he opened the cab door and got out; but as the cab drove away, he stood beside his suitcase looking up at the old house which bore the number given In Benjamin Corvet's letter, then around at the other houses and back to that again. The neighborhood obviously precluded the probability of Corvet's being merely a lawyer—a go-between. He must be some relative; the question ever present in Alan's thought since the receipt of the letter, but held In abeyance, as to the possibility and nearness of Corvet's relation to him, took sharper and more exact form now than he had dared to let it take before, Was his relationship to On the Train He Took the Letter From Hia Pocket and for the Dozenth Time Reread I t Corvet perhaps, the closest of all relationships? Was Corvet his . . . father? He checked the question within himself, for the time had passed for mere speculation upon it now. Alan was trembling excitedly; for—whoever Corvet might be—the enigma of Alan's existence was going to be answered when he had entered that bouse. He was going to know who be was. All the possibilities, the responsibilities, the attachments, the opportunities, perhaps, of that person whom he waa—but whom, as y e t he did n't know—were before him. He went up the steps and, with angers excitedly unsteady, he pushed the bell beside the door. The door opened almost Instantly— so quickly after the ring, Indeed, that Alan, with leaping throb of his heart, knew that some one must have been awaiting him. But the door opened only half way, and the man who sto»d within, gazing out ut Alan questioningly, waa obviously a servant. "What 1B It?" he asked, as Alan stood looking at him and past nim to the narrow section of darkened hall which was in s i g h t Alan put his band over the letter in his pocket. "I've come to see Mr. Corvet," he said—"Mr. Benjamin Corvet." "What Is your name?" Alan gave his name; the man repeated it after him, in the manner of a trained servant, quite without Inflection. Alan, not familiar with such tones, waited uncertainly. So far as he could tell, the name wus entirely strange to the servant, awakening neither welcome nor opposition, but Indifference. The man stepped back, 'iut not in such a manner as to invite Alan In; on the contrary, he half closed the door as he stepped back, leaving it open only an inch or two; but It was enough so that Alan heard him say to some one within: "He says he's him." "Ask him In ; I will speak to him." It was a girl's voice—this second oi.\e, a voice such as Alan never had heard before. It was low and soft but quite clear and distinct, with youthful, impulsive modulations and the manner of accent which Alan knew must go with the sort of people who lived in houses like those on this street. The servant, obeying the voice, returned and opened wide the door. "Will you come in, sir?" Alan put down his suitcase on the, stone porch ; the man made no move to pick it up and bring It In. Then Alnn stepped into the hall face to face with the girl who had come from the big room on the right. She was quite a young girl—not over twenty-one or twenty-two, Alan judged; like girls brought up in wealthy families, she seemed to Alnn to have gnined young womanhood in far greater degree In some respects than the girls he knew, while, at the same time, in othec ways, she retained more than they some characteristic* of a child. Her slender figure had a woman's assurance and grace; her soft brown hair was dressed like a woman's; her gray eyes had the open directness of the girl. Her face— smoothly oval, with straight brows and a skin so delicate that at the temples the veins showed dimly blue— was at once womanly and youthful; and there was something altogether likable and simple about her, as she studied Alan now. She was slightly pale, he noticed, and there were lines of strain and trouble about her eyes. "I am Constance Sherrlll," she announced. Her tone implied quite evidently that she expected him to have some knowledge of her, and she seemed surprised to see that her name did not mean mojrje to him, "Mr. Corvet is not here this morning," she said. He hesitated, but persisted : "I was to see him here today, Miss Sherrlll. He wrote me, and I telegraphed him I would be here to-day." MI know," she answered. "We had your telegram. Mr. Corvet was not here when It came, so my father opened It." Her voice broke oddly, and be s i d l e d her In Indecision, wondering who that father might be that opened Mr. Corvet's telegrams. "Mr. Corvet went away very suddenly," she explained. She seemed, he thought, to be trying to make something plain to him which might be a shock to him; yet herself to be uncertain what the nature of that shock might be. Her look was scrutinizing, questioning, anxious, but not unfriendly. "After he had written you and something else had happened*- I think—to alarm my father about him, father came here to his house to look after him. He thought something might have . . . happened to Mr. Corvet here In his house. But Mr. Corvet was not here." "You mean he has—disappeared?" "Yes; he has disappeared.'* Alan gazed at her dizzily. Beajamln Corvet—whoever he might be— had disappeared; he had gone. Did any one else, then, know about Alan Conrad? j "No one has seen Mr. Corvet," she ; said, "since the day he wrote to f you. We knew that—that he became ; so disturbed after doing that—writing '• to you—that we thought you must \ bring with you Information of him." "Information !" "So we have been waiting for you to come here and tell us what you know about him or—or your connection with him.H swer her; for she JH >M inspect thai he was unable to answer i«r. "You would rather explain to father than to me," she decided. He hesitated. What he wanted now was time to think, te learn who she waa and who her father waa, and te adjust himself to this strange reversal of his expectations. "Yes; I would rather do t h a t " he said. She caught up her fur collar and muff from a chair and spoke a word to the servant As she went out on to the porch, ke followed her and stooped to pick up his suitcase. "Simmons will bring that," she said, "unless you'd rather have It with you. It is only a short walk." They turned In at the entrance of a house In the middle of the block and went up the low, wide stone steps; the door opened to them without ring or knock; a servant in the hall within took Alan's hat and coat, and he followed Constance past some great room upon his right to a smaller one farther down the hall. "Will you wait here, please?" she u«ked. He sat down, and she left him; when her footsteps had died away, and he could hear no other sounds except CHAPTER III DI ecu sal on of • Shadow Alan, as he looked confusedly and blankly at her, made no attempt to answer the question she had asked, or to explain.

"We weren't sure trom you* telegram exactly at what hour you would arrive, and that was why 1 wuited at Mr. Corvet's to be sure w | wouldn't miss you.

"What do you mean?" she asked. He fought down and controlled resolutely the excitement In his voice, as he told her rapidly the Mttle he knew about himself. He could not tell definitely hew sh« was affected by what he said.

The farm is occupied by W a l t e r Trinkle, who had just completed putting 3(.) tons of hay in t h e barn. His automobile, a quantity of small tools and binder twine were also consumed by the flames, The windmill, which stood near the residence, was also burned, and only from t h e fact t h a t there was no wind the residence would probably have been burned. The lire started in the log lmu.se. The loss will be a heavy one for both Mr. Trinkle and the Thompson estate. The property was partially covered by insurance.- Standard. B R I G H T O N ' — M a x W.

Men were on duty at all times but were called off last evening at 7:"<> o'clock because there appeared to be no violence in this strike. While on duty one of the men had the misfortune of being hit on the head by u flying stone, This was not thrown by a striker but was caused by one of the fast trains. The life of leisure that the guards could lead, led them to look for a little diversion. One of the men shot 3 ground hogs and two | crows. The best of it is that he shot both crnws^with one shot and did not know lie did it. Some shot.—Tribune.

These were: First, an agreement on a wage scale which, while adequate, should at the same time afford the steady employment which the anthracite mine workers have enjoyed In the past and which only regular demand for the product can assure. Second, that any agr€lment reached should be durable and at the same time provide reasonable means of wage adjustment from time to time to meet the changing economic conditions of the country.

The stamps were of the ruble denomination. The pre-war value of a ruble was 61 cents and a copeck one-half of 1 cent Washington — President Harding's plan for arbitration of the nationwide mine strike was rejected unanimously by the United Mine Workers here. The policy committee ol the organization, after a long and stormy session, decided it would be impossible for the miners to accept President Harding's proposal unless it was modified greatly. There is an air of tenseness and concern in official circles here and the trend of developments seems to be toward a crisis in which the president would be forced to take his threatened drastic action of seizing and operating the mines and the railroads. Federal troops still are being held in readiness for instant dispatch to mine or rail centers when violence cannot be controlled by local or state authorities breaks out. The president, in a statement Saturday night on the miners' refusal to arbitrate, indicated that his next move would be announced early thiB week, after the reply of the bituminous operators to his proposal is received. His plan has been been accepted in principle, by the anthracite operators. ' Railroads Use Strikebreakers. Chicago—With peace negotiations instituted by Ben W.

She, he saw, was listening, like himself, for the sound of SherrUl's arrival at the house; and when It came she recognized It first, rose, and excused herself. He heard her voice In the hall, then her father's deeper voice which answered; and ten minutes later, he looked up to see the man these things had told him must be Sherrill standing in the door and looking at him. Alan had arisen at tight of him; iherrill, as he came in, motioned him back to his seat; he did not sit down himself, but crossed to the mantel and leaned against It "I am Lawrence SherrlU," he said. As the tall, graceful, thoughtful man stood looking down at him, Alan could tell nothing of the attitude of this friend of Benjamin Corvet toward himself. His manner had the same reserve toward Alan, the same questioning consideration of him, that Constance Sherrill had had after Alan had told her about himself. "My daughter has repeated to me what you told her, Mr. Conrad," SherrlU observed. "Is there anything you want to add to me regarding that?" "There's nothing I can add," Alan answered. "I told her all that I know about myself.M "And about Mr. CorvefT "I know nothing at all about Mr. Corvet" "I am going to tell you some things about Mr. Corvet," Sherrill said. "I had reason—I do not want to explain Just yet what that reason was—for thinking you could teU us certain things about Mr. Corvet, which would, perhaps, make plainer what has happened to him. When I tell you about him now, It is in the hope that In that way, I may awake some forgotten memory of him in you; If not that, you may discover some coincidence of dates or events In Cwvet's life with dates or events in your uwn. Will you tell me frankly, If you do discover anything like t h a t r "Yes; certainly." For several moments, Sherrill paced •p and down before the fire; then he returned to his place before the mantel. MI first met Benjamin Corvet'* he commenced, "nearly thirty years ago. X had come West for the first time die year before; I was about your own age and had been graduated from college only a short time, and a business opening had offered* Itself here. Times were booming on the Great Lakes. Chicago, which had more than recovered from the fire, was doubling Its population every decade; Cleveland, Duluth, and Milwaukee were leaping up as ports. Men were growing millions of bushels of grain which they couldn't ship except by lake; hundreds of thousands of tons of ore had to go by water; and there were tans of millions of feet of pine and hardwood from the Michigan forests. Sailing vessels, it is true, had seen thslr day and ware disappearing from the lakes; were being 'sold,' many of them, as the saying Is, *to the Insurance companies' by deliberate wrecking. Stsamers were taking their place. Towing had come In. I felt, young man though I was, that this transportation matter was all one thing, and that in the end the railroads would own the ships. I have never engaged very actively in the operation of the ships; my daughter would like me to be more active In It than I have been; but ever since, I have had money in lake vessels. It was the year that X began that sort of investment that I first met Corvet" Alan looked up quickly. "Mr. Corvet was—T' he asked. "Corvet was—Is a lakeman," SherrlU said Alan sat motionless, as he recollected the strange exaltation that had come to him when be saw the lake for the first time. Should he tell Sherrill of that? He decided It was too vague, too indefinite to be mentioned; no doubt any other man used only to the prairie might have felt the "He was a shipowner, then," he "Tee; he tra* a shipowner—net, however, on a large scale at that time. Be had been a master, sailing ships which belongs*] to others; then he had sailed one etf his own. He was operating then, I believe, two vessels; hot with the boetn times oa the lakes, his interests were beginning to expand. I met him frequently in the next few years, and we became close friends." SherrlU broke off and stared an instant down at the rug. Alan bent forward; he made no Interruption but only watched Sherrill attentively. "Between 1886, when I first met him, and 1896, Corvet laid the foundation of great success; his boats seemed lucky, men liked to work for him, and he got the best skippers and crews. There was a saying that In storm a Corvet ship never asked help; It gave It; certainly in twenty years no Corvet ship had suffered serious disaster. Corvet was not yet rich, but unless accident or undue competition intervened, he was certain to become so. Then something happened." Sherrill looked sway at evident loss how to describe i t "To the ships?" Alan asked him. "No; to him. In 1896, for no apparent reason, a great change, came over him." "In 1896!" "That was the year." Alan bent forward, his heart throbbing in his throat "That was also the year when I was brought and left with the Weltons in Kansas," he said. Sherrill did not speak for a moment. "I thought," he said finally, "It must have been about that time; but you did not tell my daughter the exact date." "What kind of change came over him that year?" Alan asked. Sherrill gazed down at the rug, then at Alan, then past him. "A change in his way of living," he replied. "The Corvet line of boats went on, expanded; Interests were acquired In other lines; and Corvet and those allied with him swiftiy grew rich. But In all this great development for which Corvet'a genius and ability had laid the foundation, Corvet himself ceased to take active part. He took Into partnership, about a year later, Henry Spearman, a young man who had been merely a mate on one of his ships. This proved subsequently to have been a good business move, for Spearman had tremendous energy, daring, and enterprise; and no doubt Corvet had recognized these qualities in him before others did. Since then he has been ostensibly and publicly the head of the concern, but he has left tne management almost entirely to Spearman. The personal change to Corvet at that time Is harder for me to describe to you." Sherrill halted, his eyes dark with thought his lips pressed closely together ; Alan waited. "When I saw Corvet again, in the summer of '96—1 had been South during the latter part of the winter and East through the spring—I was impressed by the vague but to me, alarming change in him. I was reminded, I recall, of a friend I\had had In.college who had thought he was In perfect health and had gone to an examiner for life insurance and had been refused, and was trying to deny to himself and others that anything could be the matter. But with Corvet I knew the trouble was not physical. The next year his wife left him." "The year of— T Alan asked. "That was 189^. There was no question of their understanding and affection up to the very time she so "That Was 1897." strangely left him. She died in France la the spring of 1910, and Corvet's first Information, of her death come to him through a paragraph In a newspaper." Alan had started; Sherrill looked at him questlonlngly. "The iprinf of 1810," Alan explained, "was when I received the bank draft for fifteen /hundred dollars." x Sherrill nodded; he did not seem surprised to hear this; rather It appeared to be confirmation of something In his own thought "Following his wife's leaving him." Sherrill went on, "Corvet saw very little of any one. He spent most of his time In his own house; occasionally he lunched at hia club, at rare intervals, and always unexpectedly, he appeared at his office. I remember that summer he was terribly disturbed because one of his ships was lost The Corvet record was broken; a Corvet ship had appealed for help; a Corvet vessel had not reached port. . . . And later in the fall, when two deckhands were washed from another of his vessels and drowned, he was again greatly wrought up, though his ships still had a most favorable record. In 1902 I proposed to him that I buy full ownership in the vessels I partly controlled and ally them with those he and Spearman operated. Since then, the firm name has been Corvet, Sherrill, and Spearman. "Our friendship had strengthened and ripened during those'years. The intense activity of Corvet's mind, which as a younger man he had directed wholly to the shipping, was directed, after be had isolated himself in this way, to other things. He took up almost feverishly an Immense number of studies—strange studies most of them for a man whose youth had been almost violently active and who had once been a lake captain. I cannot tell you what they all were— geology, ethnology, nearly a score of subjects; he corresponded with various scientific societies; he has given almost the whole of his attention to such things for about twenty years. But he has made very few acquaintances in that time, and has kept almost none of his old friendships. He has lived alone In the house on Astor street with only one servant— the same one all these years. "The only house he has visited with any frequency has been mine. He has always liked my wife; he had—he has a great affection for my daughter, who, when she was a child, ran in and out of his home as she pleased. My daughter believes now that his present disappearance—whatever has happened to him—is connected in some way with herself. I do not think that is so—" Sherrill broke off and stood In thought for a moment; ne seemed to consider, and to decide that It was not necessary to say anything more on that subject "Is there anything In what I have told you which makes It possible for you to recollect or to explain?" Alan shook his head, flushed, and then grew a little pale. What Sherrill told him had excited him by the coincidences it offered between events in Benjamin Corvet's life and his own; it had not made him "recollect" Corvet, but It had given deflniteness and direction to his speculations as to Corvet's relation to himself. Sherrill drew one of the large chairs nearer to Alan and sat down facing him. He felt in an inner pocket and rought nut an envelope; from the envelope he took three pictures, and handed the smallest of them to Alan. As Alan took i t he saw that it was a tintype of himself as a round-faced boy of seven. "That is y o u r Sherrill asked. "Yea; It was taken by the photographer In Blue Rapids." "And this?" The second picture, Alan saw, was one that had been taken in front of the barn at the farm. It showed Alan at twelve, in overalls and barefooted, holding a stick over his head at which a shepherd dog was jumping. "Yes, that is Shep and L Mr. Sherrill. It was taken by a man who stopped at the house for dinner one day; he liked Shep and wanted a picture of him; so he got me to make Shep jump, and he took i t " "Doesn't It occur to you that It was your picture he wanted, and that he had been sent to get it? I wanted your verification that these earlier pictures were of you, but this last one is easily recognizable." Sherrill unfolded the third picture; it was larger than the others and had been folded across the middle to get it into the envelope. Alan leaned forward to look at i t "That is the University of Kansas football team," he said. "I am the second one In the front row; I played end my Junior year and tackle when I was a senior. Mr. Corvet—?" "Yes; Mr. Corvet had these! pictures. They came into my possession day before yesterday, the day aft$r Corvet disappeared; I do not want:J© tell Just yet how they did that." , Alan's face, which had been flushed at first with excitement had gone quite pale, and his hnnds, as he clenched and unclenched them nervously, were cold, and his lips were very dry. He could think of no possible relationship between Benjamin Corvet and himself, except one, which could account for Corvet's obtaining and keeping these pictures of him through the years. '1 think yon know who I am * Alan said. T o n have guessed. If I am not mistaken, that yon are Corvefs son." • The color flamed to Alan's face for an Instant then left It paler than before. "I thought it must be that way." he answered; "but yon said he had no children." "Benjamin Corvet and his wife had no children." T thought that was what you meant" A twinge twisted Alan's face; he tried to control it but for a moment could not • "Do not misapprehend your father," Sherrill said quietly. "1 cannot prevent what other people may think when they learn this; but I do not share such thoughts with them. There is much in this 1 cannot- understand; hut I know that it is not mereiy the result of what others may think It— of *a wife in more ports than one,' as you will hear the lakemen put It. What lies under this is some great misadventure which had changed and frustrated all your father's life." Sherrill crossed the room and rang for a servant. "I am going to ask you to be my guest for a short time, Alan," he announced. "I have had your hag carried to your room; the man will show you which one It is." Alan hesitated ; he felt that Sherrill had not told him all he knew—that there were some things Sherrill purposely was withholding from him; but he could not force Sherrill to tell more than he wished ; so after an instant's irresolution, he accepted the dismissal. Sherrill walked with him to the door, and gave his directions to the servant; he stood watching, as Alan and the man went up the stairs. Then he went back and seated himself In the chair Alan had occupied, and sat with hands grasping the arms of the chair while he Btared into the fire. He seemed to be considering and debating something within himself; and presently he seemed to come to a de- 1 of course, had a key to the front doe* like this one, nls servant has a key to the servants' entrance. I do not know of any other keys." "The servant is in charge there uow?" Alan asked. "Just now there is no one In the house. The servant after your father disappeared, thought thut, if he hud merely gone away, he might have gone back to his birthplace neur Maxilstlque, and he went up there to look for hUn. 1 had a wire from him today that he had not found him and was coining back." Sherrill waited a moment to see whether there was uny thing more Alan wanted to ask ; then lie went out "For Almost Twenty Years," He Said, "Your Father, as I Have Told You, Lived In That House Practically Alone." cislon. He went up the stalre and on the second floor he went to a front room and knocked. Alan's voice told him to come in. Sherrill went in and, when he had made sure thut the servant was not with Alan, he closed the door carefully behind him. Then he turned back to Alan, and for an Instant stood Indecisive as though he did not know how to begin what he wanted to say. As he glanced down at a key he took from his pocket, his indecision seemed to receive direction and Inspiration from It; and he put it down on Alan's dresser. "I've brought you," he said evenly, "the key to your house." Alan gazed at him, bewildered. "The key to my house?" "To the house on Astor street," Sherrill confirmed. "Your father deeded the house and its furniture and all Its contents to you the day before he disappeared. I have not the deed here; it came Into my hands the day before yesterday at the same time I got possession of the pictures which might—or might not for all I knew then—be you. I have the deed downtown and will give It to you. The house is yours in fee simple, given you by your father, not bequeathed to you by him to become your property after his death. He meant by that, I think, even more than the mere acknowledgment that he is your father." Sherrill walked to the window and stood as though looking out but his eyes were blank with thought "For almost twenty years," he said, "your father, as I have told you, lived in that house practically alone; during all those years a shadow of some sort was over him. I don't know at all, Alan, what that shadow was. But it is certain that whatever it was that had changed him from the man he was when I first knew him culminated three days ago when he wrote to you. It may be that the consequences of his writing to you were such that, after he had sent the letter, he could not bring himself to face them and so has merely . . . gone away. In that case, as we stand here talking, he Is still alive. On the other hand, his writing you may have precipitated something that I know nothing of. In either case, If he has left anywhere any evidence of what it Is that changed and oppressed him for all these years, or If there Is any evidence of what has happened to Mm now, it will be found in his house." Sherrill turned back to Alan. "It Is for yon—not me, Alan," he said simply, "to make that search. I have thought seriously about It this last half hour, and have decided that Is as be would want It—perhaps as he did want It— to be. He could have told me what hit trouble was any time In these twenty years. If he had been willing I should know; but he never did. Your father, C H A P T E R I V . "Arrived Safe; W e l l . " As the door closed behind Sherrill, Alun went over to the dresser and picked up the key which Sherrill had left. He put it, after a moment, on the ring with two or three uther keys he luid, and dropped them into hit pocket; then he crossed to a chair and sut down. Sherrill had spoken of the posslbll ity thut something might have "happened" <© Corvet; but it was plain ha did not believe he had met with actual violence. He had left it to Alan to examine Corvet's house; but he had no* urged Alan to examine it at once; he had left the time of the examination to be determined by Alan. Thii showed clearly that Sherrill believed —perhaps had sufficient reason for be lievlng—that Corvet had slinply "gone away." Corvet, Sherrill bad said, nsd married in 1889. But Sherrill in long knowledge of his friend, had ^OWB Arm conviction that there had been no mere vulgar liaison In Corvet's life. Did this mean that there might have been some previous marriage of Alun f father—some marriage wHich had strangely overlapped and nullified hit public marriage? In that case. Alaju could be, not only in fact but legally, Corvet's son; and such things as this, Alan knew, had sometimes huppened, and had happened by a strange combination of events, Innocently for all parties. Corvet's public separation from his wife, Sherrill had said, had taken place in 1897, but the actual separation between them might, possibly, have taken place ldng before that. The afternoon had changed swiftly into night; dusk had been gathering during his last talk with Sherrill, so that he hardly had been able to ses Sherrill's face, and just after Sberrlll had left him, full dark had come, alao did not know how long he had teen sitting in the darkness thinking out these things; but now a little doer which hud been ticking steadily In the blackness tinkled six. Alan heard * knock at his door, and when it was repeated, he called. "Come In." The light which came In from the" hall, as the door was opened, showed a man servant. The man, after a respectful inquiry, switched on the light He crossed Into the adjoining room— a bedroom ; the room where Alan was, he thought, must be a dressing roora, and there was a bath between. Prese n t l y the man reappeared, and moved ' softly about the room, unpacking I Alan's suitcase. He hung Alan's other 'suit In the closet on hangers; he put ' the linen, except for one shirt, in ths I dresser drawers, and he put Alan's few toilet things with the ivorybacked brushes and comb and other i articles on the dressing stand. Alan wondered, with s sort of trepV dation, whether the man would expect to stay and help him drew; k*t be only put the buttous in the cleaa efetH 1 and reopened the dresser drawees in* laid out a change of things. "I was to tell you, sir, Mr. SherrU! is sorry he cannot be at home to dinner tonight. Mrs. Sherrill and Miss Sherrill will be here. Dinner Is at seven, sir." Alan dressed slowly, after the mas had gone; and at one minute before seven be went downstairs. There was no one In the lower hall and, after an Instant of Irresolution and a glance into the empty drawing room, he turned into the small room at the opposite side of the hall. A handsome, stately, rather large woman, whom he found there, Introduced herself to him formally as Mrs. Sher« rill. Her reserved, yet almost toe casual acceptance of Alan's presence, told him that she knew ail the particulars about himself which SherrlU \ had been able to give; and *s Con- Stance came down the stairs and Joined them half a minute later, Alas was certain that she also knew. Dinner was announced, and the} went Into the great dining roora where the table with Its linen, silver, and china gleamed under shaded lights. The oldest and most dlgnifine" of the three men servants who waited upon them In the dining room Alun thought must be a butler—a species of creature of whom Alan had heard bul never had seen ; the other servants, at lenst, received and handed things through him, and took their order! fror* him.

The reduction means general admission to the exposition, now under the Jurisdiction of the state of Michigan, will be fifty cents this year, compared to seventyjdve cenfFaSj^ar ago.

In the excitement °f the moment, the loss may not be keenly felt, but as the years ride by in their swift chariots, lines mark the face and strands of silver streak the hair, There comes to the loser an inexpressible sense of loneliness which sharply reminds him or her of the glorious sun that has set behind the purple hills. A friendship which multiplied Joys and divided sorrows is gone forever. As you repeat this word "gone" In the night when you are alone, and again in the morning and at rntervals through the day, it comes upon you with a new*and terrible meaning.

(Copyright by Will U Maupln.) of will, you find In your grief that you cannot do It. Pride scores as dictator. Like a beggar you sup on its dry crusts, and go to bed night after night with an ache In your heart and a sting in your conscience. Yet you keep going crookedly about the byways and highways of life and continue year after year the ragged practice of unbending your neck or curving your lips with a friendly smile. It no longer matters so much how your behavior appears to the glaring eyes of the world, so you persist stubbornly to air your pride and flout it in public places, dropping daily a little lower from the high ideals so sacred To you in the peaceful, hallowed days of friendship. In the background of every picture depicting human unhapplness you will find an ugly blur of color quite at variance with the rules of harmony, caused by a slip of the tongue or a spurt of passionate anger between two persons, communities or nations. If you will study the blur intently, you will find that it is the evil thing that destroys pt-uce and strews battlefields with rivulets of blood. If you have a true friend, give him or her the best of which pure friendship is capable of giving; or If you have quarreled, break the truce and heaven will bless you!

Down on the ground every flower and plant and growing thing was crying for water, and old Mother Earth was beside herself with grief over the suffering of her children. "They all will die," she moaned. "and I -cannot do a thing to help theiy. Even the tall trees are heavy with dust. Oh. where are the Rain Clouds, and why do they not do their work and save my children?" The little brooks and streams had done all they could to help, but even they were almost dry, and In her despulr Mother Earth caught a Warm Breeze floating by and asked it if it knew where the Rain Clouds were and why they did not eorae where they were so much needed. Warns Breeze said he did not know but that he would ask Tree Top If he could get high enough, but that he had little strength left himself, the earth was so warm. Somehow Warm Breeze did manage tc get a message to Tree Tops and they sent back word that the Rain Clouds were hiding on the mountain und around it. Then along came Brisk Breeze, who was passing on his way home, and Mother Earth begged hirn to tell the Rain Clouds to hurry or her children would perish. But the bad nain Clouds, when Brisk Breeze gave them Mother Earth's message, just run off high up in the sky saying they were not going to work; they were going sailing. Brisk Breeze was a friend to Mother Earth, however, and he flew $r. 4+**m*0*4+*+*f** Constance Binney while all the time Mr. Thunder scoldeu.

My. how those rain clouds did cry! , They cried so hard and so long that their fasf falling tears made puddles and pools alt over the ground, but Mother Earth did not care; she Just made places to catch the falling drops, and when the little brooks and el reams ran over she told them, "Never mind, ,ny dears, we can use It all. I am so thirsty I can drink every bit of it before morning." And she did, for the next morning everything was bright and fresh and Mother Earth and all her children were no longer thirsty. The Rain Clouds were all afraid of Mr. Thunder and his sister, hot tempered Miss Lightning, after that, and now when they hear him scolding they are pretty sure to come running and begin their work, for they know how angry he can he when they fail to give Mother Earth and her children water when they are thirsty. t© by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.)

For what is the use of onr wonderful modern civilization if we don> take advantage of all its conveniences? And that is Just what the telephone Is—a convenience. Yet for the sake of saving five or ten or twenty cents, sometimes, some of us ignore the existence of the telephone, and cause thereby untold worry to our family and our friends. For Instance, you have told your family that you will be home at four o'clock to take a little motor trip before dinner. You are delayed at the oflice, and know you won't be able to get home until seven. Telephone them, and put their minds at rest about the change of your plans. Or you are delayed by a block on the subway or street car line on the way lo a friend's "house for a luncheon en gagement. Telephone her, Instead of arriving three-quarters of an hour late, full of apologies. Or perhaps you take a taxi to the station to catch a train to a friend's house for a week-end visit. The taxi is caught In a traffic Jam and you miss the train. Telephone, so that the friend who is expecting you won't wait anxiously for your tniln to arrive. It is a far better thing to use the telephone to explain away worries and doubts and misunderstandings than to use it as a means of disseminating neighborhood gossip.

The Latin adjective clarus. meaning bright or famous, is of course responsible for both names. but where Clare followed the English j m t n e 0 j d rhyme and French, Clarice is the product of Italy. The old Latin feminine of words ending jn "or" to signify the doer, was "Ix:'; In modem Italian this becomes "Ice." Clarice, therefore, was the feminine name so evolved and meant "to make famous." It proved I popular throughout Italy, Its famous bearer probably being the wife of Lorenzo de Medici. Tbewgh France already had a Claire, She adopt«1 Clarice, giving a soft **ss" fcxmd to the "c."

" V I L L A I N " HISTORY, which has a habit of repeating Itself, runs true to form In a number of words, as may be seen by the <!; comparison of the changes un- * dergone by "pagan" and "villain." The former, as we have seen, first meant a dweller In a village (pngus), then a heathen villager and then a heathen. Similarly, "villain" was originally applied to the serf or peasant, known as "villanus" because he was attached to the villa or farm. In this sense it had no opprobrious meaning whatever, being practically a synonym for our word "countryman" or "rustic." Then, because it was taken for granted that the peasant would be churlish, selfish, dishonest, and generally of evil moral conditions—referring, of course, only to the peasants of other days—the word began to take on these secondary characteristics, and. at the third $ step, nothing of the meaning which the etymology suggests J survives. The peasant Is en I tirely lost, and the evil moral £ * conditions of him who Is called * by this name alone remain, for, in its final stage, the epithet may be as freely applied to the peer as to the pauper. In fact, thanks to popular fiction and the even more popular screen, the current visualization of a villain Is that of a well-dressed, black-mustached, cigarette-smoking person, bred within the morally cramped confines of the big city rather than raised in the theoretically pure atmosphere of the farm. Thus do words swing around until their meaning points in a direction precisely opposite to that in which they started. <© by the Wheelrr Syndicate, Inc.) ¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢^¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢¢,¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾¾ I: WHY 6 0 * .

" W h a t have you to say to the White F a t h e r for such a beautiful gift?" uaked the post trader in presenting it to the Shoshone chief. The chief w a s silent for a moment and then ii* a voice shaken with emotion he s a i d : "When the white man gives thanks, he has plenty tongue hut no heart ; when Washakie gives thanks he. h a s plenty heart but no tongue. T h e heart h a s no tongue." Washakie w a s born.in the beautiful Wind river country In Wyoming about ten years before L"wls and Clark visited the Shoshone, l i e became noted for his friendship fwr t h e whites and his deeds as a warrior against enemy tribes. Once In his old a g e some of the younger warriors began talking of deposing him. Washakie disappeared from camp and two months later on the night t h e council was to meet to take action on the chieftainship, he suddenly apiieared witn six scalps of their tribal enemies, the Rlackfeet. Throwing them at the feet of his warriors, the c' ' ' • "Lot him who can chief.' I h e r e wu.a uo u,^^ ••! deposing him. At another time Washakie's son, smarting under the wrongs of a dishonest trader, led a war party to avenge himself on Innocent settlers. Washakie, mindful of Ins promise always to live at pence with the white men, sent this message to his s o n : "Unless you and your young men a r e back on the reservation by sunrise, you will never return." The war party kept on. Washakie gathered his warriors and pursued. Not one member of that war party ever returned. During the war with the Sioux In 1870, although Washakie was then more than seventy years old. he led Ids warriors to aid (ieneral ('rook a s scouts. In battles the old chief w a s always In the thick of the fighting. Waslmkie died February Li 1. 11MH), and was buried with full military honors in the cemetery at Fort Washakie, Wyo, He gave a warrior heritage to his children and one of his grandsons died In the uniform <>f the United States army during the war TV-ith Germany.

Realizing the uselessness of resistance, he resolved to find refuge In Canada. Encuml*?red with women and children and having a fighting force that never exceeded 300 warr i o r s ; with an army In front of him, another behind him and a third on his flank he began the flight. H e fought eleven engagements, five of them pitched battles of which he lost but one. In the other six skirmishes he eluded pursuers, killed 12d and wounded 140 of the 2,000 soldiers who fought him, hut he lost lDl killed^ and 88 wounded of his own people. His military skill won the unstinted praise of his adversaries. After successfully conducting this retreat over 2,000 miles of the roughest country in North America he stopped to rest. Fifty miles away lay the Canadian line and safety. Suddenly fresh troops appeared ami surrounded him. Even then he could have escaped by abandoning his women and children and the wounded. ISut this he scorned to do. After two days fighting he w a s forced to surrender. This is the story of Chief Joseph (Hlnmaton-yaintkit — "Thunder Coming Up From the Water Uver t h e Land") of the Nez Ferces. T h e Nez I'erce war began In 1877 when the Indians were removed from their homes" tn the Wallowa valley in Oregon, under a treaty which Joseph refused t o recognize. He resolved to submit rather than provoke a war. His warriors were not so tractable. One day one of them whose father had been killed by a white settler rode Into the Nez Perce camp, "I have killed the white man who murdered my father," he announced. "Now you will have to go to war." Other murders of settlers followed and when the military was called out the wur began. Then fob lowed the famous flight through Idaho and Montana. It ended In October when (Ieneral Miles attacked Joseph's band In the Bear I'nw mountains. After a twoday battle the chief gave up the contest. "1 nm tired of fighting. Our chiefs nre killed. The old men are all dead and It is the young men who say 'yes' and 'no' In the council. It Is cold and we have no blankets. The little children a r e freezing to death. H e a r me, my chiefs, my heart Is sick and snd. From where the sun now stands, I fight no more forever." Joseph never fought again; although his ptople became exiles in Indian territory ; eventually they were returned to the northwest actf on September 21, 3004. the Indian Xenophon filed on the C'Vville reservation, Ne>pelim, Wash. (Prepared by the Unlttd States Department of Agriculture.) Many important problems In growing uud marketing pecans are confront ing the growers. Until recently the most experienced growers of pecans have considered the cowpea to be an excellent summer cover crop for use In their orchards, but, says the United States Department of Agriculture, it has been found that this crop is a favorite host plant or crop for the southern green plantbug or "stink bug" which attacks the immature nuts and by perforating the soft shell with its proboscis, reaches and Injures the tender kernel. With the subsequent growth and development of the nuts there arise at the points of perforation definite areas of deadened tissue In the kernel, possessing a bitter or acrid taste, and commonly designated as "kernel spot." Large quantities of the finest nuts were greatly reduced in consequence. A substitute soil-improving crop for "~*"yving in pecan orchards Is there- .LMe needed. Among the promising things are beggarweed. bush velvet bean and soy bean. So far as Is known the beggarweed Is not a host plant for the bug and the hush velvet bean and the soy bean a r e not supposed to be attacked by this Insect. Bush velvet beans are increasing In popularity as a cover crop In this section and may be the solution of the problem. As yet, there is little practical experience In determining the' suitability of these rover crops In pecan orchards and their efficiency In controlling the "stink bug." Orchardists woo use either bush velvet beans or soy beans as cover crops should carefully Inspect their crops at the end of the season to determine whether the percentage of nuts with kernel spot is satisfactorily reduced on the areas in which these crops are grown In comparison with the same variety where no cover crops are used. These ure Important problems- on which the growers themselves can assist In securing trustworthy information. Plan to Destroy "Stink Bug." It has been suggested that the "stink hug" feeds only on s< ed pods. If this Is true, crops, such as the velvet bean, which are late In maturing seed po 's, could be grown for a summer cover crop and turned under or cut up with disk harrows In early October before the pecan is ready to harvest. In this way the Insect probably would be destroyed and the ground left In good condition for the nut harvest. Growers and experimenters are expecting to obtain valuable Information on these crops during the coming season. Another Important problem Is that of unproductive orchards. Some of these orchards were planted on very poor soil, and for the worst of these the only apparent alternative Is that of abandonment. Other orchards do not produce well because the trees were planted t<>o close together, and are now badly crowded. For these 1T appears that t h e most effective rem edy would be that of removing the alternate trees, pruning those remain Ing, and of Improving rhe fertility of the soil. For orchards composed of seedling trees, or Inferior varietlee top-working is the solution. To Build Up Industry. In large outlying districts within the pecun range, yet beyond the limits of successful culture of southern varieties, the question is how to build up the orcharding industry, and how to extend Its range. In regions to whict the species is indigenous the first question is that of rinding new varieties suitable for planting. T h e native forest and field specimens should be ex amined for trees bearing desirable nuti In sufficient quantity to be profitable. Scions from such trees should be used for top-working the inferior, seedlings. Small wild seedlings can be worker' over to desirable sorts by customary nursery methods. Some common mistakes made In attempting to top-work trees a r e : Using those that are too old; cutting off branches that are too large; pruning too severely at the outset, thus attempting to do too much In a single season; top-working trees planted too close together, and top working trees standing in out-of-theway places where it will never be possible to give them good care. The development of the nut-cracking Industry should help the pecan Into a 12 months of the year market, and give employment to labor during otherwise Idle months. The kernels of the peenn contain a large percentage of oil which is quite as sensitive to tempeiulure changes as Is butter. In order that the shelled meats, as well as the unshelled nuts, may be kept In prime condition for the longest possible period, It is necessary that the nuts be well dried before they are packed or barreled for shipment, and that the product be kept In a cool and well-ventilated place during the winter months. As soon as warm weather begins these products should be placed In cold storage at a temperature between 30 and 36 degrees. In the shelling of nuts there Is considerable waste In the form of shells awl broken meats. Growers and handlers are trying to find uses for these products, such as fertilizer, tanning material and fuel.

Cutworms can readily be controlled hy t h e use of poisoned bait, the United States Department of Agriculture has demonstrated. This is the way to prepare and apply the poison: To one bushel of dry bran add one pound of white arsenic or paris green and mix thoroughly into a mash with four gallons of water, in which has been stirred one-half gallon of sorghum or other cheap molasses. This amount will be sufficient to treat four or five acres of cultivated crops. After the mash has stood for several hours scatter It in lumps of about the size of a marble o\ er the fields where the Injury Is beginning to appear. Put it about the b a s e of the plants which have been set out. Apply the mash late In the day, so as to have the poison In place around the plants before night, when the cutworms are active Apply a second time if necessary. Cutworms destroy hundreds of thousands, even millions of dollars' worth of crops every year throughout the United Slates. They especially attack tomatoes, cahbnge, lettuce and other vt getnbles that h a \ e been str.rted under tr'ass and transplanted. Cutworms sometimes appear in great numhers In the spring rind early slimmer, and frequently do severe injury before their ravages are noticed. Their method of attack Is to cut off the younL" plan** near the ground. They are of l a r r e size and are voracious feeders, capable of desfroving many plan's In a single mght. Often they en' down more than they can i e,- 0 • — Very Similar to Silage and Some Feed era Think It Is Superior t o Green a t Feed. Ordinary field-cured alfalfa hay Is » bright green color, but sometime^ when moisture conditions a r e right stack curing results In a brown ot black hay that Is very similar to si Inge. It has a pleasant odor, is very palatable to live stock, and some feed ers think it is superior to green hay In feeding value. This kind of h a j results from putting up the alfalfa when it is more or less green. Most of it Is the result of accident rathei than intent, as definite efforts to make It have generally resulted In failure and a great deal of loss. Certain conditions, however, a r e essential In making brown hay. It should be put up in good-sized stacks, as It molds and chars to such an extent in small loose stacks that it Is not fit for fce<\. From reports that have heen collected from different alfalfa-growing areas, the United States Department of Agriculture concludes that good brown alfalfa hay is equal or somewhat superior in palatability to good field-cured hay, hut not superior to if in feeding value. The method of male ing would be Important could it be ue pended upon for saving hay in eli mates where there is so much rain fall that it is difficult to cure the haj in the field. Because of danger from spontaneous combustion it is not nd visnble to try to make brown hay Ir barns or mows.

It was not Inspector Byrnes who instituted the famous Imaginary barrier known as the "dead Une"— a point beyond which crooks could not penetrate except under peril of immediate arrest, even though no charges were pending against them at the moment. The device was originated by William Melville, superintendent of Scotland Yard during the reign of Queen Victoria. But it was in connection with the prevention of a crime, rather than la the solving of one, that Melville had his most distinguished success, for II he had not been able to capture Vroff, the famous anarchist, it is quite possible that the czar of Russia and possibly some of the members of the reigning family in England would have been blown into eternity. The affair In question occurred some months after Melville had taken charge of Scotland Yard. The visit of the czar had b<*en widely heralded through the press and every governmental operative In Great Britain had been pressed into service to secure the safety of the visiting ruler. The entire Island was combed for men who were known to be hiding, and, as a final resort, Melville Issued an order that any suspicious character found within five square miles of the line of march from Buckingham palace to the Mansion house would be arrested on sight. Three days before the arrival of the czar, Melville's reports Indicated that the city had been thoroughly cleaned up. But on the very day of the process slon, only two hours before the royal families were scheduled to leave the palace, Melville was Informed that his men had failed to apprehend the most dangerous nihilist on the continent— a young Russian by the name of Vroff, who had escaped from a prison In St. Petersburg and had entered England in such a roundabout manner that his arrival had not been recorded. According to the word which reached Melville, Vroff had secured employment in a wine merchant's establishment along the line which the procession would follow, and h#d sworn to throw a bomb under the czar's carriage as it passed. Melville realized that there wasn't a moment to be lost. Also, It was a Joh which he must handle alone. As It happened, Melville knew the establishment where Vroff worked, and he also knew that a^ certain vintage of champagne was kept in the cellar, whence It was produced only at a special request. It was for this renson, therefore, that he made his way to the wine shop and stated thnt he would like to purchase half a dozen bottles of the champagne. As he expected, the proprietor Informed him that the vintage was In the bin, hut offered to have It brought np Immediately. "Don't hot her to do thnt," replied the Scotland Yard man, Til go down with one of your cellarmen and pick out the bottles for myself. Possibly 1*11 see something else that I want at the same time. Send that man along with tne to point out the way," and he indicated one of fhe employees whom he had recognized from the description as Vroff. As they reached the foot of the stairs, the cellarman pointed to a bin •nearby and stated that it contained the champagne the customer asked for. Realizing that he could not stage his coup so close to a means of exit, Mel- 'vllle examined the bottles, offered some objection to the age of the wine and inquired what lay in the back of the cellar. "Burgundy," replied tbe other, commencing to be a bit restive, for the hour of the approach of the procession was drawing rapidly nearer. "Fine!" said the Scotland Yard head. "I think I'd prefer that, after all. Let me see some of It, will you?" Grumbling a bit under his breath, Vroff led the way back Into the dim recesses of the cellar, and as he bent forward to secure a bottle, Melville closed with him. With a sidewise, eel-like slip, Vroff ducked out from under the detective's arms, and, before Melville knew what he was doing, he had reached Into a bin in the center of the cellar and secured a big, murderous bomb, which he held high above his head. "Stop !" he commanded, as the Scotland Yard operative started toward him. "One more step and I'll blow the whole place to h—1 and you with It." Melville, wise in the knowledge of annrchial principles, realized that this was a b'uff. "You've got me." he admitted. "But for God's sake don't throw that thing In here: We'd both be killed !" "Then back into that doorway," directed Vroff, "and don't make a sound. Slowly and hesitatingly, so as to bring the Russian nearer to him. Melville obeyed orders. Then, Just as the anarchist reached out to rlr.se the door, Melville sprar.g and seized the bomb •Vlth one hand, and with the other delivered an uppercut on the point of the anarchists's jaw from which Vroff didn't recover for fully five minutes. When he finally came to, he found that he had bren securely hnmh-uffed to one of the stanchions—the:-e to remain intll tlif *..,unds of the piis^-in.: procession loid faded into the 'li-'-.iico. ?Y YY Y ii INSURANCE MAN IS ENTHUSED OVER IT Had Your Iron Today?

NICHOLS 8 Pinckney Opera House SATURDAY EVE., JULY 22 8 p. m. Clara Delia Weaver Reader and Entertainer Of Los Angeles, Calif. Assisted by Local Musicians Proceeds for Federated Church «i'- Adults 35c ALL COME No Reserved Seats Children 20c % •*r s; <» ; $ Martha, A- Nicjiuls, youngest child of Ezekiel and Elizabeth Nichols was born February 12 187ti in Handy township, Livingston County, Michigan. In the following spring her parents moved to the Nichols farm in Marion, 3 miles west of Howell. In early life she attended the Lake school near her home and later the Howell High School. In 1903 she entered the nurses' training school in Michigan University. After two years of study she developed tuberculosis and came home to fight that dread disease. In 19^)() she hati so far recovered that she returned to her studies in the University and was graduated in June 1908. She had a tine scholarship record and several advantagious offers were made her in distant institutions, but wishing to be near her aged parents she entered the Pinckney Sanitarium where she served for eleven years. She will live long in the memories of .scores of patients of this institution for the tender and faithful care they received at her hands. No patient ever left this institution who did not love and respect her. Her father's health failed him and she returned to her home to care for him. After his death her mother required her care and she remained at home till her own death July 6, 1922. For several months it was known to her intimate friends that her health was failing and the most expert medical and surgical aid was employed in her behalf but was unable to check or cure the malady from which she suffered. Too much cannot be said in regard to Mrs. Nichols as a woman, as a friend or as a professional nurse. Her, career has ended but her influence lives on especially in the affections of those for whom she cared in their time of suffering, as well as in the hearts of scores of friends. When it became known that she was seriously ill friends and former patients came to her door without number begging that they be allowed to do some' thing for her, but in her weakened condition she could see but few, and they would leave their tokens of love and go away. The administrations of her long time friend and associate nurse Mrs. Richards was a great comfort to her. She leaves a mother Hfi ycnrs of age, three brothers, Elmer of St. Ignace, Asa, of Nebraska and George of Howell. The funeral was held at her home on the lawn and under the trees she loved so well, on July 8, 1922 Rev. Julian West of the Howell M. E. Church assisted by the 0. E. S. order of Pinckney officiated. Thus closes a life pure and true, and while the horizon was not always clear find unclouded, her fnith that ri^ht and justice will prevail sustained her and she died triumphant, Now in the i i 1 >: NEW STORE We will close out the following implements for cash 6 Sixty-toi tli SILT! frame L'V-T Harrows --- - - $ 1 6 1 Sixty-tooth wood frame Lever Harrows - - - $ 1 2 2 •• 9 Oliver steel beam Walking Flows -- - - $ 2 2 I 98 Oliver steel beam Walking J'low $20 ~ 95 South Bend Steel Beam Walking Plows $ 2 1 1 94 South Bend Steel Beam Walking Plow - . $ 2 1 3 J.

Avery had driven up to the Palmer Garage and was having his car filled with gasoline. A lighted cigarette was the cause of the fire. The gasoline ignited and spread rapidly, flames reaching 20 to 25 feet in the air. The person filling the car had presence of mind enough to allow the gas in the filling station to run out. This added to the immedinte intensity of the fire but no doubt saved a bad explosion •—Tribune. BRIGHTON—Quantities of unlighted matches have been found under corners of some of the buildings on east Main street, and it appears that an attempt had been made to start a fire from them.

A DAY ON LAKE ERIE [ Si\ of Pinckney's business men look a <la\'s vacation last T h u r s d a y , and visited Put in Bay Island, Lake Knc. They left Detroit "at f>:00 A. M , g;iil- I iug down the river to its mouth, thence across Lake Lrie to P u t in Ba\ Lland, made famous by Perry's Victory in LSI.'}. They visited the natural caves, said to he the rendezvous' of smugglers in the early history of the nation and Liter used a s a shelter for his many wounded men by Commodore Perry when he was forced to come ashore and refit his vessels after the great battle with the British fleet. The Pinckney p a r t y also inspected and took the elevator t o the top of the Perry monument, erected in honor of the American seamen who fought and bled and died for our c o u n t r y September 10, 1813. The Memorial stands on the isthmus of South Bass Island, Ohio, overlooking the waters of Lake Erie and t h e scene of Perry's Victor}' off West Sister Island. The great Doric column rises 352 feet above the lake level. It is the highest m o n u m e n t in t h e world, excepting the Washington m o n u m e n t ; the greatest battle monument in the world and the most massive column ever attempted by man—ancient or modern. The Pinckney -party had the opportunity of witnessing the yacht races held at P u t In Bay and saw the fastest motor boats in the world speeding around the bay.

The day was perfect and the p a r t y j thoroughly enjoyed the day's outing, I Other business men will make the same trip in the near future. The p a r t y j was composed of Postmaster W. E.

It was said that no legislation was practicable to deal with the present strike.

He could not can up any tense that the house waa hla, any more than be had bean able to when Sherrlll had MM him of fet He own a house on that street 1 Yet waa that In itself amy more raaas^kahea than thai he should be the guest, the friend of such people as the Sherrills? N<xj>ne as y*t since Sherrlll had told him he was Cervet's son, had called him by name; wtten they did, what would they call hl4? vAian Conrad still? Or Alan Corbet? He noticed, up a street to the west, the lighted sign of a drug store and turned up that way; he had promised, he had recollected now, to Write to . . . those in Kausas—he could not call them "father" and "mother" any more—and tell them what he had dis covered as soon as he arrived. He could not tell them that but he could write them at least that he had arrived safely and was well. He bought a postcard in the drug store, and wrote Just "Arrived safely; am well" to John Welton in Kansas. There was a little vending machine upon the counter, and he dropped In a penny and got a box of matches and put them In his pocket He mailed the card and turned back to Astor street; and he walked more swiftly now, having come to his decision, and only shot one quick look up at the house as he approached i t With what had his father shut himself up within that house for twenty years? And was It there still? And was It from that that Benjamin Corvet had tted? He saw no one In the street and was certain no one was observing him as, taking the key from his pocket, he ran up the steps and unlocked the outer door. Holding this door open to get the light from the street lamp, he fitted the key into the Inner door; then he closed the outer door. For fully a minute; with fast-beating heart and a sense of expectation of he knew not what, he kept his band upon the key before he turned it; then he opened the door and stepped Into the dark and silent house. CHAPTER V An Encounter. Alan, standing In the darkness of the hall, felt in his pocket for his matches and struck one on the box. The light showed the hall In front of him, reaching back into some vague, distant darkness, and great rooms with wide portlered doorways gaping on both sides. He turned into the room upon his right, glanced to see that the shades were drawn on the windows toward the street then found the switch and turned on the electric light. Alan had the feeling which so often comes to one In an unfamiliar and vacant house that there was some one In the house with him. He listened and seemed to hear another sound in the upper hall, a footstep. He went out quickly to the foot of the stairs and looked up them. "Is any one here?" he called, "Is any one here?" His voice brought no response. He went half way up the curve of the wide stairway and called again, and listened ; then he fought down the feeling be had had; Sherrlll had said there would be no one In the house, and Alan was certain there was no one. So he went back to the room where he had left the light The center of this room, like the room next to It, was occupied by a library table-desk. He pulled open some drawers In It; one or two had blueprints and technical drawings In them; the others had only the miscellany which accumulates In a room much used. There were drawers also under the bookcases all around the room; they appeared, when Allan opened some of thenv to contain pamphlets of various societies, and the scientific correspondence of which Sherrlll had told him. Alan felt that seeing these things was bringing his father closer to him; they gave him a little of the feeling he had been unable to get when he looked at his father's picture. He could realize better now the lonely, restless man, pursued by some ghost he could not kill, taking up for distraction one subject of study after another, exhausting each in turn until he could no longer make It engross him, and then absorbing himself In the next On the top of a chest of high drawers in a corner near the dressing table were some papers. Alan went over to look at them; they were Invitations, notices of concerts and of plays twenty years old—the mall, probably, of the morning when Corvet's wife had gone away, left where her maid or she herself had laid them. and only picked up and put back there at the times since when the room was dusted. As Alan touched them, be saw that his fingers left marks in the dust on the smooth top of the cheat: he noticed that some one else had touched the things and made marks of the same sort as be had made. The freshness of these other marks startled him; they had been made within a day or so. They could not have been made by Sherrtn, for Alan had noticed that gherrilPe hands slender and delicately formed; vat, too, was not a huge man; Alan's own hand was of good size and powerful, but when he put his fingers over the marks the other man had made, he found that the other hand must have been larger and more powerful than his own. Had it been Corvet's servant? It might have been, though the marks seemed too fresh for that; for the servant, Sherrlll had said, had left the day Corvet's disappearance was discovered. This proof that some one had been prying about in the house before himself and since Corvet had gone, startled Alan and angered him. Who had been searching in Benjamin Corvet's —In Alan's house? He pushed the drawers shut hastily and hurried across the hall to the room opposite. In this room—plainly Benjamin Corvefs bedroom—were no signs of intrusion. He went to the door of the room connecting with i t turned on the light end looked In. It was a smaller room than the others and contained a roll-top desk and a cabinet The cover of the desk was closed, and the drawers of the cabinet were shut and apparently undisturbed. Hb tried the cover of the desk, brft It appeared to be locked; after looking Around vainly for a key, he trieo again, exerting a little more force, and this time the top went up easily, tearing away the metal plate into which the claws of the lock clasped and the two long screws which had held i t He examined the lock, surprised, and saw that the screws must have been merely set Into the holes; scars showed where a chisel or some metal implement had been thrust in Somewhere Within the House, Unmistakably on the Floor Below Him, a Door Had 8lammed. under the top to force It up. The pigeonholes and little drawers in the upper part of the desk, as he swiftly opened them, he found entirely empty. He hurried to the cabinet; the drawers of the cabinet too had been forced, and very recently; for the scars and the splinters of wood were clean and fresh. These drawers and the drawers in the lower part of the desk either were empty, or the papers tn them had been disarranged and tumbled In confusion, as though some one had examined them hastily and tossed them back. To Alan, the marks of violence and roughness were unmistakably the work of the man with the big hands *who had left marks upon the top of the chest of drawers; and the feeling that he had been In the bouse very recently was stronger than ever. Alan ran out Into the hall and listened; he heard no sound; but he went back to the little room more excited than before. For what had the other man been searching? For the same things which Alan was looking for? And had the other man got them? Who might the other be, and what might be his connection with Benjamin Corvet? Alan had no doubt that everything of Importance must have been taken away,.but he would make sure of that He took some of the papers from the drawers and began to examine them; after nearly an hour of this, he had found only one article which appeared connected In any way with what SherrUl had told him or with Alan himself. In one of the little drawers of the desk he found several books, much worn as though from being carried In a pocket and one of these contained a series of entries stretching over several years. These listed an amount—$150—-opposite a series of dates with only the year and the month given, and there was an entry for every second month. Alan felt his fingers trembling as he turned the pages of the little book and found at the end of the list a blank, and below, in the same hand but in writing which had changed slightly with the passage of years, another date and the confirming entry of $1,500. Alan looked through the little book again and put It In his pocket. It was, beyond doubt his father's memorandum of the sums sent to Blue Rapids for Alan; it told him that here he had been in his father's thoughts. He grew warm at the thought as he began putting the other things back Into the drawers, He started and straightened suddenly; then be listened attentively, and his skin, warm an Instant before. turned cold and prickled. Somewhere within the house, unmistakably on the floor below htm, a door had slammed. Some one—it was beyond question now, for the realization was quite different from the feeling be had had about that before was In the house with him. Was It . , . his father who had come back? That, though not Impossible, seemed improbable, Alan stooped quickly, unlaced and stripped off his shoes, and ran oat into the hall to the head of the stairs, where he looked down and listened. From here the sound of some one moving about came to him distinctly; he could see no light below, but when he ran down to the turn of the stairs, it became plain that there was a very dim and flickering light in the library. He crept on farther down the staircase. His hands were cold and moist from his excitement and his body was hot and trembling. Whoever it was that waa moving about downstairs, even If he was not one who had a right to be there, at least felt secure from Interruption. He was going with heavy step from window to window; where he found a shade up, be pulled it down brusquely and with a violence which suggested great strength under a nervous strain; a shade, which had been pulled down, flew up, and the man damned it as though it had startled him; then, after an instant, be pulled it down again. Alan crept still farther down and at last caught sljzht of him. He was a big, young-looking man, with broad Shoulders and very evident vigor; Alan guessed his age at thirty-five; he was handsome—be had a straight forehead over daring, deep-set eyes; his nose, Ups and chin were powerfully formed; and he was expensively and very carefully dressed. The light by which Alan saw these things camo from a flat little pocket searchlight that the man carried In one hnnd. which threw a little brilliant circle of light as he directed it; and now, as the light chanced to fall on his other hand—powerful and heavily rausclei] —Alan recollected the look and size of the finger prints on the chest of drawers upstairs. He did not dnuhr that this was the same man who hnd gone through the desk; hut since h« had already rifled the desks, what did he want here now? As the man moved out of sight, Alan crept on down as far as the door to the library; the man had gone on Into the rear room. and Alan went far enough into the library so he could see him. He had pulled open one of the drawers In the big table In the rear roorft and with his light held so high as to show what was In it, he was tumbling over its contents and examining them. He went through one after another of the drawers of the table like this; after examining them, he rose and kicked the last one shut disgustedly; he stood looking about the room qu*-«- tionlngly, then he started toward the front room. He had, as yet, neither seer nor heard anything to alarm him, nnd as he went to the desk In the front room and peered Impatiently Into the drawers, he slammed thpm shut, one nfter another. He straightened and st&rer! about. "D—n Ben! D—n Ben!" he ejaculated violently and seturned to the rear room. Alan, again following him, found him on his knees in front of one of the drawers under the bookcases. As he continued searching through the drawers, his Irritation became greater and greater. He Jerked ons drawer entirely out of Its ense, and the contents flew In every direction; swearing at it, he gathered up the letters. One suddenly caught his attention; he began reading It closely, then snapped It back Into the drawer, crammed the rest on top of It, and went on to the next of the files. He searched In this manner through half a dozen drawers, plainly finding nothing at all he wanted; he dragged some of the books from their cases, felt behind them and shoved back some of the books but dropped others on the floor and blasphemy burst from him. The beam of light from the torch tn his hand swayed aside and back and forth. Without warning, suddenly It caught Alan as he stood tn the dark of the front room; and as the dim white circle of light gleamed Into Alan's face, the man looked that way and saw hlra. The effect of thls,upon the man was so strange and so bewildering to Alan that Alan could only stare at htm. The big man seemed to shrink into himself and to shrink back and away from Alan. He roared out something In a bellow thick with fear and horror; he seemed to choke with terror. There was nothing in his look akin to mere surprise or alarm at renllzlng that another was there and had been seeing and overbearing him. The light which he still gripped swayed back and forth and showed him Alan again, and he raised his arm before his face as he recoiled. The consternation of the man was so complete that it checked Alan's rush toward him; he halted, then advanced silently and watchfully. As he went forward, and the light sbone upon his face again, the big man cried out hoarsely: "D—n you, d—n you, with the hole above your eye I The bullet got you I And now you've got Ben! But you can't get me I Go back to hell I You can't get me I HI get you—HI get you ! You—can't save the Mlwaka !" He drew back his arm and with all is might hurled the flashlight at Alan. It missed and crashed somewhere behind him, bu* did not go out; the beam of light shot back and wavered and flickered over both of them, as the torch rolled on the floor. Alan rushed forward and, thrusting through the dark, his hand struck the man's chest and seized his coat The man caught at and seized Alan's arm; he seemed to feel of It and assure himself of its reality. "Flesh I Flesh 1" be roared In relief; and his big arms grappled Alan. As they struggled, they stumbled and fell to the floor, the big man underneath. His hand shifted Its hold and caught Alan's throat; Alan got an arm free sod, with all his force, struck the man's /aee. Its* jma struck a heavy blow on the side of Alan's bead which dizzied him but left him strength to strike again, and his knuckles reached the man's face once more, but he got another heavy blow In return. Tbe man was grappling no longer; he swung Alan to one side and off of him, and rolled himself away. He scrambled to his feet and dashed out through the library, across the hall, and Into the service room. Alan got to his feet; dizzied and not yet familiar with tbe house, he blundered against a wall and had to fee) bis way along It to the service roomj as he slipped and stumbled down the stairway, a door closed loudly at th% end of the corridor he had seen at the foot of the stairs. He ran along the corridor to the door; it had closed with a spring lock, and seconds passed while he felt in the dark for the catch; he found it and tore the door open, and came out suddenly Into the cold air of the night in a paved passageway beside the house which led Ha one direction to tb» street and 1¾ the other to a gate opening on the af.ey. He ran forward t«* the street and looked up and down, bu' 1ound It empty; then he ran bark to th* alley. At the end of the alley, wher^ *t Intersected the cross street, the figure of the man running away appeared sud» denly out of the shadows, then disappeared ; Alan, following as far as the street could see nothing rnort of him; this street too was empty. lie ran a little farther and looked, then he went back to the house. The side door Imd swung shut again and latched. He let himself to at the front door and turned on the Kght lo tbs reading lamp In tbe library. The electric torch still was burning on tbe floor and he picked it up and extinguished It; he went upstairs and brought down his shoes. He had seen a wood Are set ready for lighting In the library, and now he lighted it aad sa* before It drying his wet .socks b> fore he put on his shoes. He was stl'l shaking and breathing fast from Ws struggle with the man and his chafe after him, and by the strangeness Of what had taken place. When the shaft of light from the torch hnd flashed across Alan's fate \ In the dark library, the man had not i taken him for what he was—a living ; person; he had taken him for a specter. His terror and the things he had fried out could mean only that. Ths J specter of whom? Not of Benjamin Corvet; for one of the things A!aa had remarked when he saw Benjamlo Corvet's picture was that he hlmsplf did not look at all like his fa'Htr. Be- I sides, what the man hnd said msde it ' certain that he did not think the npeo ter was "Bon"; for the s o r t e r hnd "got IVn." Did Alan look like s«4ne , one else, then? Like whom? Evidently like the men—now dend, *<•• he had a ghost—who had "got" Re* in the big man's opinion. Who coulo that be? Alan got tip and went to look at himself In the mirror he had see» In the hall. He was white, now that the flush of the fighting was going; he probably had been pale before with excitement and over his right ejt there was a round black mark. Alaa looked down at his hands; a little skin was off one knuckle, where be had struck the man, and his Angers were smudged with a black and sottj dust. He had smudged them on the papers upstairs or else In feeling his way about the dark house, and at some time he had touched his forehead and left the black mark. That had been the "bullet hole." The rest that the man had said hall been a reference to some name; Alaa had no trouble to recollect the name, and, while he did not understand M at all. It stirred him queerly—"the Miwaka." What was that? The quee* excitement and questioning that the name brought, when he repeated M to himself, was not recollection; fof he could not recall ever having heard j the name before; but It was not com* ' pletely strange to htm. He could fie> fine the excitement It stirred only la j that way. Sherrlll had believe* that here la this house Benjamin Corvet had left— or might have left—a memorandum, i record, or arf account of some sort which would explain to Alan, his son, the blight which hung over his life. Sherrlll had said that it could have been no mere Intrigue, no vuigar per sonal sin; and the events of the eight had made that very certain; for, plain* ly, whatever was hidden In that house Involved some one else seriously, dea perately. There was no other way te explain the Intrusion of the sort of man whom Alan had surprised there an hour ago. The fact that this other mas searched also did not prove that Benjamin Corvet had left a record In the house, as Sherrlll believed; but It certainly showed that another person believed—or feared—it Whether of not guilt bad sent Benjamin Corves away four days ago, whether or not there had been guilt behind the ghost whlcb had "got Ben," there was guttt In tbe big roan's superstitious terrot when he had seen Alan, A bold, pow* erful man like that one, when his cos> science Is clear, does not see a ghost And the ghost which he had seen ha4 a bullet bole above the brows 1 Insure in a Strong Company Total Assets, $227,776.54 Fourteen stock companies and four znutuals retired from business in 1921.

Just as the United states celebrated etth an exposition in 1876 the completion of the first century of Its independence, so Brazil will celebrate next September her first centenary as a na- £>n by means of a great world fair in o de Janeiro. It Is an occasion and a ceremony Which the people of the United States are particularly well fitted to understand and appreciate. In a number of ways Brazil stands where the United itutes stood 46 years ajjo, though in »any others, of course,..;this neighbor • to the south, equipped. Mith modern machinery and assisted by modern methods, is far in advance of the United States of 1876. * Brazil is much more than "one of the South American republics." In *rea it is in a class wftn the United States. Its flag floats dfer practically one-half of South Araejtca and onefifth of the western heniSphets. Leaving Alaska out of consUJ&atlon, Brazil Is actually 200,000 squart miles greater "than the United S w e s ! It has boundaries of greater ot|^ss length in common with every ot^#r country In south' America excep^ jpcuador and Chile. ' The land boundary of Brazil, following all the twisting* of rivers and mountain ranges. ifr^tfrtfcably.. aqt J a r Joining coast; one o.f,the most famous from 10,000 miles long.^tod there Is a coastline of 6,000 milerf as well. The largest river In the worM, tremendous potential water power,, and huge deposits of minerals are'among some of the other physical features that mark Brazil out for big tilings. It Is particularly In the possession of vast, undeveloped resources that Brar.il Is comparable to the United States of half a century ago. It too, has Its West; but It Is a West strikingly different from the plains country of central North America. The equator crosses northern Brazil, and more than nine-tenths of the huge country lies within the tropics. Brazil's West i n s i s t s for the most part of a dense tropical forest—A veritable ocean of verdure— rich In hard woods and rubber trees. Into this largely undeveloped country stretches the broad Amazon and.its tributaries up which ocean vessels steam for 1,000 miles—as though ocean steamers In nur own country could steam up the Mississippi and Ohio past Cincinnati. River steamers ascend the main streams for another 1,000 miles and run up numerous tributaries for several hundred miles. The. possession of this great Amazon waterway and Its network of tributaries greatly cheapens transportation In Brazil to comparison with a country in which dependence must be placed largely on railroads. Heart of B r a i d I t Southeast. In addition to Its northern forests, Brazil has a prairie country in its "Middle West"—the sooth central portion of the country lying north of Paraguay and extending northward into the hill country. Large herds of cattle are grazed 'and there is room for great expansion of the Industry. , The southeastern edge of Brazil, paradoxically, Is the heart of the country. The white population, numbering probably between 9,000,400 and 10,000,- 000 is largely concentrated In the region of temperate climate in the south ern coastal highlands Wtiich extend in- Brazil Is not backward in railroad construction, having 20,000 miles of track. Yet so vast is the country that railway construction seems barely begun. Brazil has yet to build its trans-* continental lines. With & tingle exception the railroads are confined to a belt along the coast from 860 to 460 miles deep. The exception is the road extending from the port of Santos 800 miles westward to Porto Esperanca on the Paraguay river. Rio de Janeiro^ capital-..of Brazil. in which the exposition qgefratgig the centenary of Brafiltaj^Tnfep^dencep is to be held^has aj population bje&weejl a million and a million and a half, and Is therefore one of, the greatest of cities. It shares roughly with Vienna, Osaka, Peking, Hankow and Calcutta the rank of tentb^Mty of the worttj. In South America m i s surpassed^ in^size only by Buenos Aires. Set in a series of valleys, backed-and all but encircled by mountain-like hills clad in a riot of .tropical yieg^tatKm,*$nd with* a magnificent hftrbor at its feet, Rio de Janeiro is one of the most beautiful— many travelers assert the most beautiful—of the cities of the world. Man's* hand has helped nature in bringing about this beauty. Broad boulevards rim the deep, crescents of**he harbor and the rough, picturesque ad of botanical gardpns has been created; and avenues are llaed by towering palms, while stately "BuTldingr are set In spacious parks. "As multicolored and varied in beauty as the butterflies' of the tropics' 1 is the characterization of cne recent visitor to the metropolis of Brazil. "In splendor of hue and setting this great city of the South is unrivaled the world over. Here granite peak and turquoise sea, tropic forest and ralnbow-tlnted town, meet and harmonize. "This city of lure terraces up from a glorious bay—the Bay of Guanabara. mountain-encircled, Isle-bejeweled, /rum the shore, where parks and boulevards are fast crowding out the old Rio of narrow streets, rise forested hills on whose slopes the lovelier portion of the city lies." Rio Seen From the Mountain*. To see Rio at its best and loveliest one must go to these mountains that tower over the city. Turning bayward, one looks down, through a frame of tangled vines and branches, onto the i tree-tops of the sloping virgin forest. Far below, set in verdure, gleams the kaleidoscopic city, with its crescent shores. In numerous crescents the creaming sea meets the beaches— Formosa, Santa Luzla, Lapa, Gloria. Flamingo, Botafogo. Vermelha. The bay, set in its amphitheater of hills, sparkles like a sapphire, To and fro among the ships at anchor ply the busy paddle-wheel ferry-boats to the islands and to N'ictheroy, the little sister city across the way. In the distance tower the blue spires of the 'ofty Organ mountains. Oceanward one looks down on titanic granite mountains rising sheer from the sea. There is bulks Babylonia, and flat-topped Gavea, like a great sail unfurled. Between them lie Rio's suburban beaches—Leme Capacabana, Tpnnema, Leblon—In e glistening chain, their white villas nestling between hill and shore. The Man With Tools Enabled to Reach Threatened wreak -tn taoe* and < Stop Rising Waters. (Prepated bjr th« UiUted States Department ot AsricuLture.) A federal-aid road has just been completed in Arkansas which has already saved millions of dollars to the community In which it is built. Recently during high water in the Mississippi word came to Helena, Ark., that the levee at Old Town, 17 miles away, was 'about to break. The situation was critical. A few hours' delay and thousands of acres of rich farming land would be flooded, and possibly many lives lost. Helena was the only source of aid, and many men with tools and material were needed. Every available motor vehicle was pressed into service and over 600 men, properly equipped for the work, were in a short time speeding over the new road to save the levee. They arrived in the nick of time and by almost superhuman efforts dammed back the rising waters. Residents say that had it been necessary to make the trip over the old road the levee could not have been reached In time and that the workers would have needed boats rather than motor vehicles. :.

This Time It It for the Meanest Man, and He Surely Has "Some" Qualifications! Another "meanest man" has been fouud. He was discovered in a northbound elevated express. He had remained seated although a woman stood swaying on a strap In front of him. The train was standing at the Fullerton avenue station when he jumped to his feet, apparently realizing suddenly that his destination had been reached. He started for the door. When the man quit his seat it was, logically, taken by the woman. Not for long, however, did she hold it. A second later he was back—obviously having spotted the station name through the open door. "Pardon me," he said, "that wasn't my station." And he sllowed the woman to rise and give him the seat.—Chicago Journal. The wife of a bank teller can give him cards and spades when It comes to telling secrets. Combination of Circumstances Responsible for Truly Embarrassing Situation. A short time ago .my husband and I attended the funeral ot a friend whose home was In the suburbs. We left in plenty of time, but on account of the distance and much transferring we found to our dismay that we were going to be iate. After frequent delays we arrived at our station. There "had been a heavy snowstorm the day before, and where the walks had been cleanedJt was slippery, making it difficult to hasten. When we reached the house, In hurrying up the outside stairs I slipped, lost my balance, and fell headlong. All might have been well had not the undertaker chosen just \hat moment to open the door. My husband was making a frantic grab to catch me, but I was not to be stopped, and landed in the room on all fours, to And the company all facing the door and the minister preaching the funeral sermon. —Exchange.

(Prepared X»r t h e United Statea Department ot Asrlculture.) Hickory timber, although held In seenjlDgiy vast amount by the forests of the country, may soon become insufficient to meet American manufacturing und woodworking needs. The Increasing demand for this valuable species, together with the scattered character of its growth in the forest, has resulted in merchantable stands becoming more and more inaccessible and difficult to log. Stands Are Widely Scattered. The Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture, puts the country's present supply of hickory, distributed through 1200.000,000 acres of forests, at 15,784,000,000 board feet. Of this the Central states have 1,791,- 000,000 feet, the lower Mississippi states 5,171,000,000 feet, the South Atlantic and East Gulf states 3,183,000,- 000 feet, the Mi<*lle Atlantic states 4111,000,000 board feet, the Lake states 187,000,000 feet, und the New England states 40.000,000 feet. One of the uses to which hickory Is put is the manufacture of spokes fur automobile wheels. The yearly demand upon the hickory reserves by tliis industry alone is tremendous, as there is much waste in getting the sHts't stock necessary not only for spokes but also the rims of wheels. Industries Compete for Hickory. , For the most part vehicle and agricultural implement industries compete wilh the handle industry f-r hickory and ash. These are located mainly in the Middle West, but now derive most of their wood supplies from the South. A large number of far-sighted organizations purchased more or less extensive hardwood tracts some years ago, from which they are now aide to draw at least a part of their wood supplies. To secure hickory, which grows scatteringly over large areas, the vehicle and vehicle-implement industries originally maintained extensive buying, logging, and milling organizations in the South. They draw upon every conceivable source—farmers' wood-lots small mills, large sawmills, and even hatchet. There Is a certain strength, toughness and elasticity to hickory which nature has denied to other com- J mercial woods. Some are stronger, many are harder, but the rare combl- ' nation of the qualities mentioned la lacking In all of them. I The raw material for handles in the ' form of short log bolts Is sometimes split Into handle blanks In the woods, nut the usual practice Is to rip-saw the bolts into blanks at me factory. The | split-handle blank is considered supe- I rior to the sawed blank in that it In j sures a straight-grain handle. On the j other hand, sawed blanks, though they i are likely to show more cross grain, ; are more economical In the use of timber. Hickory, due to its unrivaled properties of gTeat strength, elasticity, and resiliency, Is used exclusively in the manufacture of handles of golf clubs. The constantly Increasing popularity of this sport has placed another de maud on the hickory supply. KEEP CONTAINERS UP TO THEIR FULL SIZE "Short" Baskets Due to Lack of Proper Inspection.

Hickory is often referred to as if it standard stae. But the department cannot get around to all manufacturers, who are therefore being urged were a single species, like red gum or j to have their forms frequently Inspectyeliow poplar. In reality there are 10 | ed and to submit samples of their outdifferent kinds of hickory trees. For] put to the department to be tested, hickory-handle purposes those known | If the shippers generally would also as true hickories are most valuable. \ appreciate the desirability of uniform The pecan hickories include the water, | containers, the standardization of connutmeg, and bitter nut varieties. The true hickories comprise shagbark, pig shellbark, pignut, and mocker nut. The handle Industry 13 largely dependent on this last group of trees for its raw material. The annual consumption of hickory by the handle trade Is something over 120,000,000 feet board measure. Little, If any, of this material passes through the sawmills, for it is ordinarily cut and shipper! to the handle factories in the form of log bolts or billets. All hickories do not give the same service when made into handles. The various parts of the same tree may show different properties, and the quality of the wood near the center is quite likely to differ from that nearer the bark. The wood * the butt of a young hickory tree is of greater average toughness than it Is when the tree Is old. The wood of butt cuts of both old and* young trees Is tougher than that cut higher up the trunk. The handle manufacturers, for the most part, demand /frond-growth hickory. which ronsftrrrof young stock of rapid growth. 13-st Matsrlal for Handles. Hickory Is the bent known material for certain classes of tool handles, so .h as th« ix, adz, pick, hammer, and tainers would be a simple matter, says • the department. i SOY BEAN GOOD CATCH CROP \ § Regular Practice at Missouri AgriruU tural College and Is Very Successful.

Curious Fire Engine. What might be described as a double- tandem bicycle, with four wheels arranged Vke those of a wagon, and four seats for riders, two in front and two behind, and carrying a hose reel, rotary pump, etc., was exhibited recently In Paris. The machine is intended as a lire engine in small towns. When the scene of fire is reached the pedals are thrown into gear with the pump, the hose is unrolled, and the riders, resuming their seats, work the pump by means of the pedals. It is claimed that this machine can outstrip any fire engine drawn by horses on the way to a conflagration, and that Its pump la at least as- effective as those of the hand engines used in many towns.

Companion to the Goodyear All*Weather Tread By long wear, superior traction, freedom from skidding, and ultimate economy, the Goodyear All-Weather Tread has won unquestioned leadership. As a companion to this tire there is the Goodyear 30 x 3H Cross-Rib Fabric. Built of the same high grade Egyptian fabric and with a long wearing but differently designed tread, this tire offers unusual value. Over 5,000,000 of these tires have been sold in the last five years.

STANDING BEAR WINS LIBERTY BY HABEAS CORPUS WRIT ONCE upon a time a writ of habeas corpus was Invoked in behalf of an Indian and the decision in his case marked a uew epoch in the conduct of our Indian affairs. That man was Standing Bear (Mon-ehu-non-zhin), chief of the Poncas. In 1877 the government decided to remove Standing Bear's people from their ancestral homes in Nebraska to Indian Territory. In spite of his opposition, he and nine other chiefs were taken south to choose a reservation. They would not select a place, whereupon the agent refused them transportation home. At night they slept in haystacks, shivering with the cold. Their only food was raw corn which they found in the fields. Their moccasins wore out. After 50 days they reached the Otoe reservation in Nebraska and as they walked Into the agent's office they left bloody footprints on t h e floor. Ten days later they rode wearily into their home camp on ponies which the Otoes had given them. In their absence an official of the Indian department arrived to remove the Poncas by force. Accepting the inevitable, Standing Bear prepared to retrace his steps. After a terrible journey, during which two of Standing Bear's children died, the discouraged Poncas settled in their new homes. Within a year a third of the tribe perished. Then Standing Bear's favorite son died. In, January, 1879, he took the bones of his sons, and started once more to Nebraska. Two months later they arrived destitute at the Omaha reservation. They borrowed land and seed from the Omahas and were preparing to put in a crop when soldiers appeured to arrest and return them to Indian Territory. Then public sentiment intervened. Two white lawyers offered to defend the Poncas and sued out a writ of habeas corpus. Although attorneys for the Indian department contended that Indiana were "not persons within the meaning of the law," Judge Dundy ruled against them and ordered the prisoners released. "Once I avenged ray wrongs with the tomahawk," said Standing Bear," but the white man's way Is better. I lay the tomahuwk down forever." By this time Standing Bear's case had attracted national attention and a senate Investigation of the Ponca removal resulted In restoring them to their old homes. Here September 8, 1008, Standing Bear died at the age of eighty years. True Detective Stories T H E IRON COURAGE O F C H I E F DULL KNIFE Frtekltt Potlttv *Wls> as4v#^tf FsiBiBBl^tfnl by tHeUi QKf tffid foe ON THE morning of September 10, 1878, western military telegraph wires were humming with the news "Dull Knife has Jumped the reservation." Army officers who had fought him knew what this meant. For Morning Star (Wo-he-hlv)— Dull Knife was the translation of his Sioux name— had proved his mettle one cold winter morning in 1877 when Col. Ranald Mackenzie attacked his camp so suddenly that the Cheyennes could only snatch up their rifles and put on their moccasins before the soldiers were upon them. All that bitter day, with the thermometer 20 below zero, these naked warriors had fought off Mackenzie until their women and children had escaped. After Dull Knife surrendered, he and his people were sent to Indian Territory where they rapidly sickened and died, until two-thirds of their number had perished. In vain Dull Knife appealed to the government to return his people to their old homes. Finally In desperation he and Little Wolf, the Junior war chief, resolved to lead them from their hated reservation. But Dull Knife and a part of the tribe were captured. They were taken to Fort Robinson, Neb., and imprisoned in an old barracks. Then they were told that they must be returned to Indian Territory, Dull Knife, a majestic figure in spite of his worn moccasins and a ragged blanket, said: "Tell the Great Father that Dull Knife and his people ask only to end their days In the North, where they were born. Tell them we want no more war. But if he tries to send us back, we will butcher each other with our own knives! I have spoken!" On January 5, 1879, the Indians refused to start south. On the fifth night they made a desperate attempt to escape. Armed with a few knives and guns they tried to cut their way through the soldiers, who swarmed about them. Some were shot down; others, among them, Dull Knife, escaped. After 18 days of wandering, during which they kept alive by eating their moccasins and a few roots, Dull Knife and his Immediate family reached the camps of his friends, the Sioux After four years the old chief was allowed to return to his home In Montana, where he died In 1886. He lies buried on a high butte near the valley of the Rosebud river In the land he loved so well and fought so hard to regain. MIDNIGHT MURDER Copyright by The Wheeler Syndic*t«. Inc. 4f*T"*HEN the only thing you have J[ to go on Is the fact that several people In Grafton street recall having heard a cry a few nights ago, and the old man hasn't been seen since?" "That's all, chief. If it weren't-for the scream In the night—and they all agree that it was a blood-curdling cry —it would look like a plain case of disappearance. We've been all through the house, but of course we couldn't search it thoroughly without a regular warrant, and there's no ground for issuing one. Epstein may have wandered off somewhere to get away from his wife. She's a regular hellion, they say—though she was nice as pie to us." John "Kane, chief inspector of Scotland Yard, rubbed his chin thoughtfully. % T i l take a run down to Grafton street myself as soon as I have gotten these reports out of the way," stated Kane. "In the meantime keep an eye on the house, and let me know if anything develops," When Kane approached the house on Grafton street later in the evening, one of his men reported that there were indications of activity- Inside the place. "Looks like they were getting ready to go away or something,'* said the operative. "There's a dray coming up now. Wouldn't be surprised if the woman, alarmed at our snooping around, is preparing for a getaway." Kane said nothing, but edged closer to the house. From the meager information at his disposal, he was not at all Inclined to credit the theory that a crime had been committed. But there would be no harm in looking things, over, particularly If Mrs. Epstein was Intending to move. From the driver of the dray, Kane obtained the information that the luggape was to be taken to Charing Cross thence to be shipped across the channel. The tags were on the various articles, and it was not until the last piece was brought out of the house that Kane noted anything out of the ordinary. Then he motioned to his men to close in. "Take that chest back into the house," he ordered. "Let's see^what's In it!" "What right have you to give such orders?" demanded a voice from the doorway, and the Scotland Yard man, looking up, caught a glimpse of a tall, gaunt woman glaring down at him from the threshold. "The right of an officer of the crown to investigate suspicious circumstances," retorted Kane. "I happen to he the chief inspector of Scotland Yard, and, as your husband recently disappeared, I desire to know what is In that box." It was in the dim. barely-furnished parlor of the house that Kane directed the rhest to be placed. The flickering yellow light of a single gas jet cast a ghostly Illumination over the scene, and even Kane's Iron nerves were shocked when the lid of the box wns thrown back, and what appeared to he a ghost sat up and leered out Into the room ! It was the body of the missing man, the upper portion of the trunk attached to the lid of the box in such a manner that, when the top was thrown back, the body sprang Into a sitting; posture, as if it were alive again. Even Mrs. Epstein, hardened as she was, cried out at the apparition and then fainted away. "Quick !" directed Kane. "Find out how the man was killed!" "A thrust of some long, thin instrument through the heart," reported one of the detectives. "A drop of blood on his chest is the only indication of foul play, but that's what did it, all right. Not a stiletto or a dagger, though. The puncture isn't large enough for that." The chief inspector examined the wound for a moment carefully, and then, stepping across to where the fainting woman lay, began to fumble with something In her hair. '"Throw some water in her face," he ordered, "and then stand back. I want to find out something before she gets a chance to recover her nerve." As the woman's eyes opened, she became aware, first, of the body of her dead husband staring at her with sightless, accusing eyes. TTien she saw the chief inspector, standing In front of her, examining under a pocket magnifying glass—something that shone and glittered in the light of the Jet directly above it. An instant later Kane stood over her, his finger Indicating the thing he held In his hand. "Why did you kill your husband at midnight, four days ago?" he demanded. "Yes, you did! There's no use denying it! We have witnesses who heard the scream. We have proof that you were alone in the house with him. We know that he had a considerable sum of money concealed on the premises snd"—here his voice became the voice of doom—"I have here the weapon with which the murder was committed— your hatpin, with a tiny bit of the dead man's blood clotted close to the head where you neglected to wipe it off!" Some months later, Mrs. Epstein was sentenced to penal servitude for life, while the hatpin was added to that gruesome collection which adorns the archives of Scotland Yard. No Thanks.

Gold teeth are going out of style, according to practitioners and dental experts. The present trend is to preserve the tooth to make It look a s near as possible like it was originally. If this can't be done the offending molar or Incisor must be pulled out. The idea of pulling teeth Is something comparatively new in American dentistry. The tendency was to save the tooth at all costs. But dentists have discovered that gold crowns are unhealthful and permit foreign matter to get Into the teeth. Bridge work also is not as popular as it once was. To make a bridge two good teeth were filed down as anchors for the mass of gold In between. If the bridge failed the two good teeth on the ends went with it. Now dentists recommend a plate of false teeth Instead of the bridge. These being removable, are easily kept clean. The dental science la now spending its energies more on serviceable plates rather than on bridges or crowns.—New York Sun. Firms T h a t Have Died Since Drop in Prices Would Make Large Funeral.

So it was proposed that 70 tickets for the St. Mary's picinc dinner, August 9th, he laid aside for that purpose. Rev.

These boys are some of the unfortunate city dwellers who have not seen the best of life and there is no ijiu'stion but that they will appreciate and enjoy the hospitality of the ticket buyers. Just step in Barry's drugstore, jfive your name and buy as many tickets at JJ5 cents each as your benevolent spirit and financial ability will allow.

U. S. POWERLESS, SAYS PRESIDENT HARDING TELLS GOVERNOR T H A T GOVERNMENT CANNOT INTERFERE NOW. " JAMES H, WILKERS0N MINERS REFUSE STATE'S PLEA President of Union Refuses to Cooperate In the Plan Suggested By Gov. Groesbeck. Lansing—A letter from President Harding declares ln effect that the Federal Government is powerless to interfere with the hostile attitude of the national organization of the United Mine Workers toward Independent local agreements; that at present nothing can be done except to enable men, willing to work, to work in safety, and that the big issue in the coal strike dispute is national dictation "unhesitatingly assumed by the mine workers" which must be taken care of by legislation. The President's letter was in reply to a telegram sent by Gov. Groesbeck when he Informed the President that he was asking John L. Lewis, president of the United Workers, to grant Michigan miners permission to enter agreements independently of their national affiliation and return to work. The Governor answered the President's letter by writing that he could not concede that the Federal Government has not the power "to protect our citizens from the embarrassing situation that faces us." President T. Leo Jones, of the Michigan mine workers, rtfused to co-operigan mine workers, refused to co-operate in the move suggested by the ference at Saginaw last week. The refusal was brought about partly by the miners' disgruntlement over alleged discrimination by Michigan consumers in favor of Kentucky and Pennsylvania producers, Jones hinted. Besides refusing to order his men, back to work under the arrangement suggested by the governor, Jones declined to ask John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers of America, for permission to accede to the governor's request. "Governor Groesbeck is simply asking the Michigan miners to dig their own graves," he declared in a statement issued after the conference. Items Of Interest in World's News New photograph of James H.

When Alan went to his room, the valet appeared 'and, tndlng that Alan was packing, the saan offered his service. Alan let jtUja pack and went downstairs; a motor had just driven up to the house. It proved to have brought Constance and her mother; Mrs. Sherrill, after Informing Alan that Mr. Sherrill might aot return until some time later, went apstairs and did not appear again. Oonstaace followed her mother but, ten minutes later, came downstairs. "You're not staying here tonight V •he asked.

SherriU further had said that Benjamin Corvet, if ho had wished Sherrill to know those circumstances, would have told them to him; but Corvet had not done that; Instead, be had sent for Alan, his son. He had given his son his confidence. Sherrill bad admitted that he wag withholding from. Alan, for the time being, something that he knew about Benjamin Corvet; it was nothing, he had said* which would help Alan to learn about his father, or what had become of him; but perhaps Sherrill, not knowing these other things, could not speak accurately, as to that Alan determined to ask Sherrill "what he had been withholding, before he told him all of what had happened In Corvet's house. There was one other circumstance which Sherrill had mentioned but not explained; it occurred to Alan now. "Miss Sherrill—" he checked himself. "What Is l t r "This afternoon your father said that you believed that Mr. Corvet's disappearance was in some way connected with you; he said that he did not think that was so; but do you want to tell me why you thought itT' "Yes; I will tell you." She colored quickly. "One of the last things Mr. Corvet did—in fact the last thing we know of his doing before he sent for you—was to come to me and warn me against one of my friends." "Warn you, Miss Sherrillf How? I mean, warn you against what7" "Against thinking too much of Mm." She turned away. "I think I'll come to see your father In the morning," Alan said, when Con* stance looked back to him. "But you'll come over here for breakfast in the morning7" "You want m e f "Certainly." "I'd like to come very much." "Then I'll expect you." 8he followed him to the door when he had put oa his things, and he made no objection when she asked that the man be allowed to carry his bag around to t h e other house. When he had dismissed Simons and re-entered the house on Astor street he found no evidences of any disturbance while he had beea gone. On the second floor, to the east of the room which had been, his father's, was a bedroom which evidently had been kept as a guest chamber; Alan carried his suitcase there and made ready for bed. The sight of Constance Sherrill standing and watching after him in concern as he started back to this house, came to him again and again and, alBO, her flush when she had spoken of the friend against whom Benjamin Corvet had warned her. Who was he? It had been impossible at that moment for Alan to ask her more; besides, if he had asked and she had told him, he would have learned only g name which he could tfot place yet la any connection with her or with Benjamin Corvet Whoever he was, it was plata that Constance Bherrill "thought of him;" lucky man, Alan said to himself. Yet Corvet had warned her not to think of him. . . . Alan turned back his bed. It had been for him a tremendous day. Barely twelve hours before he had come to that house, Alan Conrad from Blue Rapids, Kan., now . ' . . phrases from what Lawrence Sherrill had told him of his father were running through his mind as ho opened the door of the room to be able to bear any noise in Benjamin Corvet's house, of which ho was aole protector. The emotion roused by his first sight of the lake went through him again as he opened the window to the east Now—he wag in bed—he seemed to bo standing, a specter before a man blaspheming Benjamin Corvet and the souls of men dead. "And the Bale above the eye 1 . . . The bullet got yon 1 . . . So It's you that got Ben 1 . . . Hi get you I . . . You can't save the Miwaka I" The Miwaka 1 The stir of that name wag stronger now even than before; it bad been running through his con. sdousoess almost constantly since he had beard It He jumped up and turned on the light and found a pencil Ho did not know how to spell the name and It wag sot necessary to write It dowa; the name bad* taken on that deflnlteneag and lneffaeeableness of a thing which, once heard, can never agala bo forgotten. But la panic that bo might forget bo wrote It messing at the opening—"Miwaka." It wag a name, of coarse; but the name of what? It repeated and repeated itself to him. after bo got back Into bod, until ltg very Iteration made him drowgy* Outside, the gale whistled aad shrieked. The wind, passing ltg last reoUtanco after Its sweep across the prairies before tt leaped upon the lake, battered and clamored in Its asjtault aboat the house. But as Alan became sleepier, bo board it no longer as It rattled the window* aad howled under tba oavoa aad over the roof, but as out oa the lake, above the roaring and lcacraaealng waves, K whipped and circled with its cam the tee-ghroaded gfetoa of struggling »**pe. So, with the roar of surf sad fata ta big eara, aa went to sleep with the solo conscious connection in nig mind between himself and these people, among whom Benjamin Corvet's summons had brought him, the one name "Miwaka." CHAPTER V I . The Deed In Trust Memory, if Alan could call it that had given him a feeling for ships and for the lake* But these recollections were only what those of a three-years' child might have been. Not only did they refuse to connect themselves with anything else, but by the very finality of their Isolation, they warned him that they—and perhaps a gjew more vague memories of similar sort—were all that recollection ever would give htm. Be caught himself together and turned his thoughts to the approaching visit to Sherrill—and his father's offices. He had accepted Constance SherriU's Invitation to drive him downtown to his destination. Observing the towering buildings to his right he was able to identify sotne of the more prominent structures, familiar from photographs of the city. Constance drove swiftly a few blocks 8herrlll Opened .a Drawer and Took Out a Large, Plain Envelope. down this boulevard; then, with a sudden, "Here we areT she shot the car to the curb and stopped. She led Alan into ope of the tallest aad bestlooking buildings. On several of the doors opening upon the wide marble hall where the elevator left them, Alan saw the names, "Corvet Sherrill and Spearman," Constance led the way on past to a door farther down the corridor, which bore merely the name, "Lawrence Sherrill"; evidently Sherrill, who had Interests aside from the shipping business, had offices connected with but not actually a part of the offices of Corvet Sherrill and Spearman. A girl on guard at the door, saying that Mr. Sherrill had been awaiting Mr. Conrad, opened aa inner door and led Alan into a large, many-wladewed room, where Sherrill was sitting alone before a table-desk. Ho pulled the "visitor*! chair" rather close te his desk and to his owa big leather chair before asking Alan to seat himself. "You wanted to tall aae, or ask me, something last sight my daughter has told me," Sherrill said cordially. "I'm sorry I wasn't homo whea you came back." "I wanted to ask yon, Mr. Sherrill," Alan said, "about those facta In regard to Mr. Corvet which you mentioned to me yesterday but did not explain. You said it would aot aid me to know them; but I found certain things in Mr. Corvet's bouse last night which made me want to know, if I could, everything you could tell me." Sherrill opened a drawer and took out a large, plain envelope. "On the day after your father disappeared," he said, "but before I knew ho was gone—or before any one except my daughter felt any alarm about him —I received a short note from him. The note was agitated, almost incoherent It told mo he had sent for you— Alan Conrad, of Blue Rapids, Kansas —but spoke of you ag though you were some one I ought to have known gbout. and commended yoa to my care. The remainder of it wag merely an agitated, almost Indecipherable farewell to me. When I opened the envelope, a key had fallen out The note made no reference to the key, but comparing it with one I had to my pocket, I saw that it appeared to bo a key to a safety deposit box in the vaults of a company where wo both bad boxes. "The note, taken in connection with my daughter's alarm about him, made tt so plain that something serious bad happened to Corvet that my first thought was merely for him. Corvet was not g man with whom one could readily connect the thought of suicide; but Alan, that was the idea I had.

I went to the telephone In the house next door and called the hotel and found Wassaquam there. I told him over the telephone only that something was wrong, and hurried to my own home to get the key, which J had, to the Corvet house ; but when I came back and let myself Into the house, I found it empty and with no sign of anything having happened. "The next morning. Alan, I went to the safe deposit vaults ae> 4oon aa they were open. I presented the numbered key and was told that it belonged to a box rented by Corvet, and that Corvet had arranged about three days before for me to have access to the box If I presented the key. I had only to sign my nam* In their book and open the box. In It, Alan, I found the pictures of you which I showed you yesterday and the very strange communications that I am going to show you now." Sherrill opened the long envelope, from wUch several thin, folded papers fell. He picked up the largest yf thege, which consisted of several sheets fastened together with a clip, and handed It to Alan without comment. Alan, aa he Looked at It and turned the pages, saw that it contained two columns of typewriting carried from page to page after the manner of an account The column to the left was an Inventory of property and profits and Income by months and years, and the one to the right was a list of losses and expenditures. Beginning at an Indefinite day or month in the year 1896, there was set down in a lump sum what was indicated as the total of Benjamin Corvet's holdings at that time. To this, In Bometlmes undated items, the Increase had been added. In the opposite column beginning apparently from the same date in 1895, were the missing man's expenditures. Alan having ascertained that the papers contained only this account, looked up questloningly to Sherrill; but Sherrill, without speaking, merely handed him the second of the papers. Alan unfolded It und saw that it was a letter written in the same hand which had written the summons he had received In Blue Rapids and had made the entries in the little memorandum book of the remittances that had been sen£ to John Welton. It began simply: "Lawrence— • "This will come to you In the event that I am not able to carry out the plan upon which I am now, at last, determined. You will find with this a list of my possessions. Deeds for all real estate executed and complete except for recording of the transfer at the county office; bonds, certificates, and other documents representing my ownership of properties, together with signed forms for their legal transfer to you, are In this box. These properties, In their entirety, I give to you ID trust to hold Tor the young man now knowa as Alan Conrad of Blue Rap- Ids, Kan., to deliver any part or all over to him or to continue to hold It all In trust for him aa you shall consider to be to his greatest advantage. "This for the reasons which I shall have told to you or him—I cannot know which one of you now, nor do I know how I shall tell It. But when you learn, Lawrence, think as well of me as you can and help him to be charitable to me. "With the greatest affection, "BENJAMIN CORVET." Alan, as he finished reading, looked up to Sherrill. bewildered and dtuted. "What does it mean, Mr, Sherrill?— Does It mean that he has gone away and left everything he had—everything to me?" "If Mr. Corvet does not return, and I do not receive any other instructions, I shall take over his estate, as he has nstructed, for your advantage." "And, Mr. Sherrill, he didn't tell you "~hy? .This is all you know?" "Yes; you have everything now. All wo can do, Alan, Is to search for him In every way we can. There will be others searching for him too now; for information of his disappearance has got out. There have been reporters at the office this morning making inquiries, and his disappearance will be in tbe afternoon papers." Sherrill put the papers back in their envelope, and the envelope back Into the drawer, which ha rolockod. "I went over all this with Mr. Spearman this morning," bo said. "He is as much at a loss to explain it as I am." He was silent tor a few moments. "The transfer of Mr. Corvet's propertlee to me for you," he said suddenly, "Includes, us you have seen. Corrot's interest in the firm of 'Corvet,. Sherrill k Spearman.' I went very carefully through tbe deeds and transfers In tbe deposit box, and It was plain that while be had taken great care with tbe forms of transfer for all the properties, bo had taken particular paiag with whatever related to his holdings In thlg company and to his shipping interests. If I make over the properties to yoa, Alan, I shall begin wtta thooa; for it seems to mo taat your father was particularly anxious that you should take a personal aa well as a financial place among tba men who control the traffic of tba lakes. I have told Spearman that this la my Intention. He has aot beea. able to see it my way as yet; but he may change his views, I think, after meet* ing you." Sherrill got up. Alan arose a tittle unsteadily. Tbe list of properties he had read and tbe letter and SherriU's statement portended so much that its meaning could not all come to him at once. He followed Sherrill through a short private corridor, flanked with files lettered "Corvet Sherrill, and Spearman," into the large room he had seen when be came in with Constance. They crossed this, and Sherrill, without knocking, opened the door of the office marked, "Mr. Spearman." Alan, looking on past Sherrill AS the door opened, saw that there were some half dozen men in the room, smoking and talking. His gaze went swiftly on past these men to the one who, half seated on the top of the flat desk, had been talking to them ; and his pulse closed upon his heart with a shock ; he started, choked with astonishment, then swiftly forced himself under control. For this was the mtin whom hi had met and whom he had fought in Benjamin Corvet's house the night before —the big man surprised in bis blasphemy of Corvet and of souls "in h—1" who, at eight of an apparition with « bullet hole above its »ye, had cried out in his fright, "You got Ben ! But yon won't get me—d—n you t D—n you !" Alan's shoulders drew up slightly, jnd the muscles of his hands tightened, as Sherrill led him to this man. Sherrill put his hand on the man's shoulder; his other hand was still oo Alan's arm. "Henry," he said to the man, "Ibis Is Alan Conrad. Alan, I want you Ta know my partner, Mr. Spearman." Spearman nodded an acknowledge inent, but did not put oat his hand) hla eyes—steady, bold, wgggferai eyes —seemed measuring Alan attentively i and (n return Alan, with big fuse, was measuring him. , /dl That Stretch W i t h o u t A n y Rubl CHAPTER V«U Mr, o»*rvat's Partner.

But for Spearman. obviously, it was aot that.

REFUNDING CAN NOW GO ON Financial Exp«rt« Believe England's Stand Will Do Much to Restore Confidence and General Stability in the European Countries. By JAMES P. HORNADAY Washingtou.—The British empire will not repudiate any part of the debt It Incurred during the World war. Notice that this policy will be adhered to has been received by the World war foreign debt commission, created by the congress last February. The attitude of Great Britain as set forth in Its Informative communication to the flebt commission is that International credit Is one of the material foundations of preseut-duy civilization and that this credit could not be maintained in the future If any first class nation should repudiate its war debt. The decision of Great Britain—It should probably be referred to as a policy—was not a surprise to the foreign debt commission, but It has, of course, given the members of the commission genuine satisfaction. Great Britain has not up to this time, it is understood, made any definite promise to pay at a certain time. The debt commission has unofficial information to the effect that an Interest payment will be made during the present summer or fall and that It Is altogether likely that the interest on the British debt will be paid In full. Recently dispatches from London have indicated that the financiers In England are working out a plan under which the principal of the war debt would be paid some time during tfre present fiscal year, that Is to say, before June 30, 192.3. The authorities here who are dealing with the subject are not Inclined to credit this information. If they understand the British financial situation, the principal, which amounts to $4,166,318,358, cannot be paid now unless Great Britain can borrow the money with which to pay it, and they have no knowledge of sources from which Great Britain could borrow such an enormous sum. England's Decision Most Important. The authoritative announcement I that Great Britain Intends to pay will, It is believed by persons who are competent to discuss the subject, have a far-reaching influence on the financial and economic situation throughout the world. It is assumed here, In the absence of any authoritative information from England, that the British government, having decided to pay up In full as soon as possible, will expect the European nations that owe her also to pay. A considerable part of the money which the United States advanced to Great Britain during the war was lent to smaller European nations by Great Brltuln. These nations. it is assumed here, will be called on by Great Britain to settle up when they are able to do so. France, whose war debt tn the United States amounts to $3,350,702,983, not counting unpaid Interest, would hardly propose repudiation of any part of that debt after Great Britain had come out for n paid-in-full policy. It is believed here that the stand of Great Britain in favor of no repudiation of war debts will expedite the work of the foreign debt commission. There would seem to be no real obstacle now in the way of going ahead with the development of plans for refunding war debts. The director of finance of the French treasury, Jean V. rarmentler, who Is here for preliminary conferences, with the debt commission, has not voiced any desire on ihe part of France to have her debt to this government scaled down. A little later Great Britain will take up the refunding question with the debt commission, and the expectation now Is that a general refunding plan w i l l ^ e agreed on. Fixed Policy Will Help Europe. American bankers who have recently spent a good deal of time In Europe ire saying to members of the foreign jebt commission that the financial situation throughout Europe will undoubtedly be stimulated by tn"e adoption of a fixed policy for dealing with the war debts. According to these bankers, lack of confidence Is largely responsible for the unsatisfactory financial condition existing throughout Europe. Up to this time persons and concerns with large financial responsibilities have not known what to expect In the future. They have heard much talk durtng the last two years about the cancellation or repudiation of all war debts, and this sort of talk has not served to stabilize conditions. No one should set the impression lat, because Great Britain has let It knowwn that she Intends to pay United States every dollar she this government, the world's rat war debt is to b» paid with- I next few years. Jt Is barely that Great Britain might be »h$*V»%V*Eake a considerable payment Mt f i r f i t a d p a l during the present fiteat year, but the debt commission ' w o u l d be surprised If that should be done. A* for the other nations that owe t h e United States, there Is no expectation b t r e whatever of getting gnytfciag OB account In the near fut o r e What t h e new turn of affairs amounts to is that the way, apparently, is opened for refunding. Apathy on Ship Subsidy. The members of the bouse of representatives who were permitted to rvturn to their homes ostensibly for the purpose of assessing the attitude of their constituents toward ship subsidy legislation have not thus fur forwarded any information to the national capital that would tend to indicate that there is any great public demand for this legislation at this time. In fact, nothing on which judgment could properly be based has been received from the representatives, since they returned to their homes. In explanation of this, It may be said that the legislators have not had time to make the investigations which they wete requested to make and report ba*k, and that It may be reasonably assumed that later on they will be uble to submit reports that will be helpful to the "powers that be." When It was decided that the members- of the lower branch of the congress should have a vacation of six weeks an official statement was put out to the effect that since there seemed to be some question in the minds of some of the representatives as to whether ship subsidy legislation should be enacted during this session of the congress, it seemed advisable that the legislators should go home and canvass the situation first hand. In this connection the view was put forth that^the house of representatives and Indeed the congress as a whole was overwhelmingly in favor of the administration's' subsidy program, but that some members of the house were Inclined to be timid about voting for the legislation until they could talk with the folks back home. T h e administration in agreeing to the vacation arrangement appeared to be very certain that a little mixing with the folks at home would convince the timid members that the country U ready for ship subsidy legislation. * Were to Do Missionary Work. There was much talk about the time the arrangements for the recess were made that most of the Republican members of the house of representatives were to go home for a brief spell as missionaries, so to speak, for t h e cause of ship subsidy. They were to take along with them all the printed arguments prepared by the shipping board during the last few months In favor of the subsidy program. They were to submit these arguments to their constituents and were to undertake a sort of- nationwide campaign In the Interest of subsidy legislation and then return to Washlgton and rush through the administration bill. If any of the representatives are engaged in carrying out this program the fact has not been reported back to the national capital. Information received here from various sections of the country indicates, to the contrary, that the representatives are at work on their polltlcnl fences with scarcely a mention of ship subsidy legislation. Obviously, the administration is disappointed because the nationwide campaign was not put under way. If the Republican representatives had carried out the program that was arranged i for them, the administration would have supplemented that program by sending forth several of its ablest speakers to tell the country how vital it Is at this time that the pending subsidy legislation be enacted. Albert D. i I.asker, chairman of the shipping board, had planned an extensive speaking tour, but It was since said at ! the shipping board that pressing business here may prevent him from taking a long trip In the Interest of subsidy legislation. Don't Want the issue This Year. The fact is that the members of the house of representatives, nearly all of whom are candidates for re-eiectlou, do not want the ship subsidy Issue raised in this year's congressional campaign. The same Uilng is true of practically all of the senators who are up for re-election. This statement applies to Republican congressmen. rather than to the Democrats who are seeking re-election, though some of the Democrats are not at all anxious to deal with the subsidy Issue in the campaign. The failure of the Republican representatives to get In behind a natgSnn-wide propaganda in support of | tlie administration's subsidy bill during their leave of ahsenre from Washington is generally regarded here as an indication that the house of representatives will shy away from a vote on subsidy legislation before the election. If there Is any one thing President Harding desires above another at this time in the way of legislation. It Is the passage of the administration's subsidy bllL He has said publicly that If the congress should not give the subject reasonable consideration at ; this session, he would call an extra session, provided, of course, there was time for an extra session to convene between the time of the adjournment of the present session and the opening of the regular session December 4. | True I Detective Stories Throwing Clothes Out Divorces Man. Perhaps the Hop! Indians are one of the few tribes who have not changed with the times.- For In Arizona these red men are living very much a s t h e j did when Columbus discovered America. They adhere to their old laws, iMtie of which a r e peculiar—particularly some of the laws affecting marriage. Should a rfopi husband come home some night and find hts clothes nnd other possessions lying at the threshold of his domicile, he knows it Is home no longer for him, because a Hopl Indian squaw who for any reason wishes to divorce her husband, simply throws his clothes out, and that ends It. There la no court of appeal* BY PERSONS UNKNOWN Copyright by Tbe V l t n l i r 8ynd.lca.te, l a c f ^ T T IS absolutely essential," said ^ the secretary of treasury, glancing across his desk at the short, ruddy-complexioned, rather stout man who sat opposite him, "that the persons responsible for these lynchlngs at Versailles be arrested, tried and convicted. I don't think It is overstating the matter to say that this case is more important than any counterfeiting plot or smuggling scheme which the department has ever worked on, for the governor of Indiana has applied to the federal government for troops to handle the uprising which threatens to sweep over that part of the country, and the entire state Is taking sides in the matter. "Naturally we do not wish to send troops to Versailles unless It is absolutely necessary. It would only lead to additional bloodshed and disorder. What we need Is someone who has the nerve to go out there, Investigate the case from every possible angle and make a report as to the persons responsible for the lynchlngs. That's why I sent for you." The man on the other side of the desk smiled and tapped thoughtfully with the forefinger of a hand which indicated strength and determination of character. "Of course," continued the secretary, "I must warn you that the case Is one that Is apt to prove dangerous. More so, In fnct, than any tiling you have ever attempted. Compared to It. the roundup of a gang of moonshiners Is child's plfry—for here you will have to work entirely In the dark, one man against practically an entire state. A single slip would mean your death, and would force the government to take steps which might lead to protracted bloodshed." "In which case," replied the other. "It would be well for rak to get out to Versailles as soon as I can. The longer we wait the less chance there Is of success. Don't make any attempt to hear from me or to locate me for at least a month. If, at the end of that time, you haven't received some kind of a report, you will know that they've got me. But, somehow, I've got a hunch that they won't." It was two days later that the train which stopped at Versailles, Ind., halted Just long enough to permit a single passenger to alight—a man who was short and rather plump and with a ruddy complexion, a man who registered at the local hotel as "James M. P.eck" and who allowed It to hecome known that he, was an Insurance agent, representing one of the best-known companies in the country. But Versailles, as Beck soon discovered, was a poor field for life insurance at that time. There was only one topic of conversation In which the natives were Interested: the lynching of the five prisoners who had been taken from Jail and murdered by an Infuriated mob. This, coupled with open threats of defiance against the governor's edict that the guilty men must be punished, kept the town in a continual state of simmering, seething unrest—punctuated by frequent statements that any state or government official who tried to find out the names of the men Implicated In the lynching would be shot on sight. Beck, apparently, wasn't In the least Interested In the local turmoil. He had been sent to Versailles to sell insurance, and he was determined to <*ell It. no matter how many people he had to interview. The fact that he was a stranger led. of course, to Immediate suspicion of his motives. and some two weeks passed before he was able to allay this. About the end of the third week matters were brought to a head by reason of a wire which Beck sent to New York, a dispatch which was In code and which caused the operator to spread the report that the "Hie Insurance acrent" was a detective In disguise. Getting wind of this and realizing that he must take some radical step to offset suspicion. Beck ap prbached the man who appeared to he the leader of the trouble-faction. The agent explained to him that he was sretting tired of the quarters at the hotel, and wondered If It would be possible to secure lodgings in> some private house where he would be s little more comfortable. "Certainly," said the native. l1 reckon we can put you up all right." And he smiled at the thought of this man whom he suspected placing him self entirely In hts power. That, how ever, was precisely what Beck wished, and It only took a couple of days of clever acting to convince th* local leader that he was only what he appeared to be—a slow, plodding and conscientious Insurance agent. It was in the house of the most dangerous citizen of Versailles, under the very eyes of his associates, that the. stranger secured the Information he wanted and put It together, piece by piece, until he had the entire story. It was precisely a month to the day after the conversation in the office of the secretary of the treasury, when that official received a wire from Chicago stating that "all facts about Versailles lynching now In hand. Complete list of men Implicated follows by mall." The name signed to the wire was "William J. Boms, chief of the Urdted Stages secret sertlce." I Qtoriesof ° GREAT INDIANS By ELMO SCOTT WATSON \ Copyrajnt, 1922. Weitara N«wap«.p«r Unioc LITTLE WOLF, C H I E F OF T H E NORTHERN CHEYENNSS MUCH has been written about Chief Joseph's retreat which won for him the name of the Indian Xenophon. Little Wolf (Oh kum hkakit), chief of the northern Cheyeanes, might well lay claim to that title, for in many respects his dash for freedom was even more remarkable than that of the Nez Perce, More than 13,000 soldiers at one time or another tried to atop the flight of Little Wolf and his little band of 70 men across the flat plains of Kansas, Nebraska and the Dakotas. "There never was such another journey since the Greeks marched to the sea," says George Bird Grinn'ell, the ablest chronicler of this splendid migration. When Little Wolf and his companion- in-arms, Dull Knife, resolved, In defiance of the government, to lead their people back to Montana, their ayent in Indian Territory tried to persuade them to stay one year more. However, the Cheyennes started and soldiers were sent after the fugitives. Within a week they had fought them five times, but failed to stop them. Then the whole available force of the United States army in the West was called Into action and six lines of military barrier were thrown out to stop the tieelng Cheyennes. The last line was far up In Montana, showing what the army thought of these hardriding, hard-fighting warriors. Stopping to fight when they were attacked, then gotng on after they had beaten off the soldiers,-Little Wolfs people kept on until they had cut through three of the military lines. Here Dull Knife and Little Wolf separated. Dull Knife was captured and imprisoned at Fort Robinson, but Little Wolf kept oneuntil he reached the sand hills of Nebraska. The soldiers were unable to find him. Early in the spring he took up his journey again and his band finally camped on the Little Missouri river In Montana. He had reached his homeland at last. Here he was discovered by Lieut. W. P. Clark, loved and respected by all the Cheyennes as "White Hat," their friend. Persuaded by Clark, Little Wolf went with him to Fort Keogh where he surrendered to General Miles. The general invited him to enlist as a scout and In spite of the hardships which he had just passed through, Little Wolf accepted the Invitation and proved a valuable ally against the hostile Sioux. Little Wolf was finally settled on the Lame Deer reservation and died November 14, 1904. CHIEF OURAY, T H E DICTATOR OF THE UTES "To the Chiefs, Headmen and Utea of tha White River Agency: You are hereby requested and commanded to cease hostilities against the whites, Injuring no Innocent person or any other further than to protect your own lives and properties from unlawful and unauthorized combinations and desperadoes, as anything further will ultimately end In dls-( aster to all parties. (Signed) "OURAY." SUCH is a document unique in Indian history. No other Indian chief had a secretary to whom he dictated orders and there Is no other case on record of a chief calling upon his warriors in this manner to lay down their arms after they had shed white blood. It is evidence of Ouray's greatness that his command was obeyed immediately. In 1879 Agent N. C. Meeker had trouble with the White River Utes and called for troops to protect him. Maj. T. T. Thornburgh with a force of 150 men marched to his relief. The Utes took this as a declaration of war and attacked them on the Milk river In northwestern Colorado. Part of them besieged the soldiers, killing 13, Including the commander, and wounding 48. Others attacked the agency, murdered Meeker and nine other white men, taking five women and children captives. Then came Ouray's message and the "Ute war" was over. Ouray, "The Arrow" was born In Taos, N. M., in 1834. He was baptized by a Jesuit priest and educated In a little Mexican school a t Taos where he learned the Spanish tongue. In 1850 he returned to the Utes who were then engaged In a bitter struggle with the Navajoes, Cheyennes and Arapahoes. One day a war party of 30 Utes led by Ouray was attacked by 800 Arapahoes. The chief rallied his warriors, formed them in a hollow square and then l i f e fight lasting 14 hours they finally beat off their assailants. Soon after this Ouray's only son was captured by the Arapahoes. From that day the Ute chief never allowed his tribe to rest from hostility toward them. In later years he appealed to the government to restore hts son to him, but the boy had become so much an Arapahoe that he refused to come. Because of Ouray's knowledge of Spanish he was made the government Interpreter to the Utes In-1856 and became bend chief soon afterwards. His friendship toward the whites was unwavering and he adopted some of their ways. He had a well-cultivated funn on which he built a comfortable house and there he died Au guat 24 1830. ~ 3 THE , KITCHEN CABINET Copyright, 1911.

MORE ABOUT RAW FOODS The raw-food people never have colds, fevers, torpid livers, stomach troubles, nervousness or any number of common ailments that the out-of-date o r d i - nary cooked food eater has, they tell us. The raw - food movement deserves at least a fair trial, for it seems to be the remedy for many ills. Fat people grow thin, thin people grow fat, and the muddy skin of the meat-eater becomes clear and bright. Who wouldn't eat raw beets, carrots and peas If she finds herself growing gracefully slender, or who wouldn't like the feeling of youth and freshness flowing through the* blood and limbering up the muscles. These foods when carefully prepared and balanced will convince the most predjudiced that they are ail that they have been called. The amount that a raw-fooder eats Is small; he is quickly satisfied. The reason Is that the stomach seems to know that it has enough and telegraphs the fact to the taste" and be finds himself satisfied. With a good meal of raw foods yon have a sensation of taste never before experienced and yon feel you are eating one of the most delicious of meals. You assimilate every bit. find yourself feeling good after the meal, brain clear, wits nimble, and when retiring time comes, sleep like the proverbial log. There really Is something worth while In t h i s ; try IL As a child, didn't you like to go Into the garden and pull the sweet turnips and carrots and eat your fill?

(Prepared by the United State* Department of Agriculture.) A net increase of 14.5 per cent In the Dumber of young pigs produced this spring In the Corn Belt states Is shown In a special pig survey just completed by the United States Department of Agriculture. This Increase may overcome the present shortage of meat stocks, the department states. The survey shows a gross increase of 22.8 per cent ID the number of spring litters this year as compared with the number of litters born last spring, but the average number of pigs saved per litter Is 7 per cent less than last spring. The April 1 brood sow report of the department Indicated a net Increase of 15.6 per cent In pig production this spring over last year. The department points out that stocks of pork products other than lard in storage May 1 are 33 per cent less than the five-year average and 26 per cent less than a year ago. Lard stocks May 1 were 16 per cent less than the five-year average and 37 per cent less than on May 1, 1921. Stocks of other meats are correspondingly low. It Is also pointed out that the survey covers numbers of hogs and not weight. The records show that the average weight of hogs marketed has varied as much as 34 per cent, or from 193 to 262 pounds, during the past five years, Many producers have found it profitable to market their hogs early at light weight before the usual run of heuvy hogs later, the department says. If farmers carry out their expressed Intentions with respect to breeding for fall farrowings the total number of sows expected to farrow for the year, including spring and fall farrowings, will be 28 per cent larger than last y*ar. The survey Indicates a prospective Increase of 49 per rent in the fall farrowings In these states over last year. Last year fall farrowings represented 28 per cent of the total farrowings for « ' -i the year, while this year they will probably represent 35 per cent. If the number of pigs saved per litter is aa low as this spring, however, the prospective Increase in number of pigs next fall will be materially reduced. The average number of pigs saved per Utter, as reported for this spring, is 5.66 pigs, compared with 6.1 pigs last spring and 5.9 pigs last fall. Smaller Increases in East and South. The survey In Pennsylvania, New York and Maryland shows an increase of only 5 per cent in the number of litters for the first half of the year, while the total number of pigs saved shows a decrease of 3 per cent from a year ago. The number of sows bred for fall farrowing shows an increase of 23 per cent over the number of sows which farrowed last fall. A total increase of 14 per cent in the number of • letters for the year is indicated provided the intentions of farmers to produce fall pigs are carried out. In the Southern states, including Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, an increase of 5 per cent in the number of spring litters is reported, but the total number of pigs saved' is the same as last year on account of the smaller number of pigs saved per lit ter. These Southern states show an Increase of 27 per cent in the number of sows Intended to be bred for fall farrowing over last year, with a total prospective increase of 11 per cent in the number of litters for the year. < The survey Is based upon about 200,000 schedules received from farmers in the Corn Belt states, which produce about 70 per cent of the pigs in the United States, and from farmers In the eastern and southern states. The schedules were distributed by rural mall carriers to 15 farmers on each rural mail delivery route. It Is planned to make a similar survey in about six months which will be used as a check on the department's estimate, and a-iso Indicate the number of pigs to be produced In the spring of 1923.

Heavy Pieces Should Be Stretched Over Beam or Large Horizontal Pole—Will Last Much Longer If Waterproofed. (Pre»are4 by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Canvas and duck wagon and crop covers and canvas bags are liable to damage through moisture, causing subsequent mildew or rotting unless tbey are dried before being stored, •ays the bureau of chemistry of the United States Department of Agriculture. Canvas which has becime wet or even damp should be^ dried as soon aa possible by being spread over a wagon or hung over a fence or large pole until It la thoroughly dry. If the weather Is wet, It may be hung under a shed or in the barn. No can* ,vaa bags, e t c should be folded or stored while damp. Folding of a heavy canvas, especially If It has been stiffened by a waterproofing treatment or by being wet or froaen, may weaken or crack the fabric, earning it to leak. Per this ssjaty canvas whoa not la use should hang over a beam or large horizontal pole, or -should be suspended against the inside of a barn or shed rather than folded. Canvas and duck will give better service and last longer if waterproofed. The United States Department of Agriculture, in Farmers' Bulletin 1157, gives tail directions for waterproofing and mildewproofing cotton duck. The bulletin may be had free on application. PRODUCING CERTIFIED SEED Many Potato Growers W i l l Be Disappointed Because of Raise In Requirements. Probably as a result of the better price received last year for certified seed stock, Maine potato growers this year have listed more than 3.300 acres for inspection of representatives of the State Department of Agriculture. Many of these growers will be disappointed, however, because they have started with stock of no particular merit. Over a aerie* of years an average of 47 per cent of the entries passed the seed-certiflcatlon requirements, but this year the percentage will probably be lower. The mosaic standard has been railed. This year a field having as much as 5 per cenl of mosaic disease Is disqualified foi products* certified aeed.

A short sharp cry, a prolonged irritated cry. Restlessness, a constant turning of the head or of the whole boay. fretftiL In these and other ways a baby tells you there is something wrong. Most mothers know that a disordered stomach, or bowels that do not act naturally are the cause of most of baby's sufferings. A call for the doctor is the first thought, but in the event of any delay there should be ready at hand a safe remedy such as Fletcher's Castoria- Castona has been used for baby's ailments for over 30 years and has merited the good will of the fearily physician in a measure not equaled by any other baby's medicine because of its harmlessness and the good results achieved. And remember this: Oastoria is essentially a baby's remedy and not a cureall for every member of the feinily. What mignt help you is too often dangerous when given to a babe.

Then is such a thing as saying too much on tny subject, and the "grand-stand" talker sooner or later becomes a bore. The truth is always welcomed, and the truth reiterated and confirmed is more than welcome—it reaches your innermost soul. Fletcher's Castoria is all its advertising has claimed for i t Scrutiniied . y the microscope of public opinion and used for over thirty years it stands without a peer in the hearts of thoughtful, cautious, discerning Mothers. And once used,-mpther love—there is no substitute for mother love—win scorn to try a "substitute" or a "just-as-good". Masquerading under many names drugs that are injurious to the tender babe have found their way into some households, but the light of experience soon casts them out.

Today, Barney Oldfield is known as the "Master Tire Builder." Starting with the crude tires which carried the "999" one mile in sixty .seconds, Oldfield gradually developed his famous Cords—a set of which covered 090 miles at eightyeight miles ah hour without a change. In three years Oldfield tires have won every important tiace on American speedways. They are the only American tires that have ever taken, first place in the French Grand Prix. They have won for three consecutive years in the 500-mile Indianapolis Sweepstakes. So far in 1922, Oldfields have lowered four World's Records and seven track records. The Wichita Test Run gave evidence of Oldfield superiority in touring— when a set of four Cords covered 34,525 rhiles over rutted, frozen, winter roads—a performance attested by the Mayor of Wichita. See your dealer arid get a set of these rugged tires that Barney Oldfield has developed and perfected through a lifetime of practical tire experience. Their performance will convince you that they are "The Most Trustworthy Tires Built" AH OOT SotAt WHUT H Y CAU #MA*YtBM' STY4.*" FRg6-U<6$ IN A BtALS $mcr *tsrfcwT YISTIWY *UT pEY5 Mojfc* STYLE! 70D8BS': J "i :Vt> R.

LITTLE BOY DROWNED Saturday about noon while Willie and Julius Do bo, age 7 and 5, sons of Mr. and Mrs. Martin Dobo, were playing: ^t the bridge over the waste gates of the mill pond, Julius fell into the water. His brother ran home, in the Eugene Campbell building, Main stnet and told his mother, afterward telling Gilbert Campbell and Lucius Doyle. The two young men rushed to the scene of the accident, Gilbert Campbell went into the water, about four or five feet deep and found the little lad laying in the bottom. He was taken ashore and every effort made to resuscitate him. Dr. C. L. Sigler was soon on the spot and worked for a long time but his efforts were unavailing and the body was then brought to the stricken home. Mr. Dobo works in Detroit, driving to his Pinckney home every Saturday afternoon. The first he heard of the accident was on his arrival home later in the afternoon. The funeral services were held in the Federated church Monday morning Rev. Ellis of Plainiield officiating, after which the remains were taken to Woodmere Cemetery, Detroit, for burial. HOWELL MICH.

WRECK AT SOUTH LYON Last Wednesday the passenger train which tries three time* a week to bring mail to the long suffering citizens along the Michigan Air Line, was wrecked a short distance from South Lyon. The passengers were all injured, some severely so. Wm. Moran and son William Jr. of Detroit were on the train, coming to their Pinckney summer home. Mr. Moran suffered from bruises on the arm and other places of his body and was internally injured. His son suffered lacerations in differ* ent places. The passenger coach left the track and was partially submerged in a creek and the occupants had difficulty in extricating themselves from the wreck. The Grand Trunk company lived up to its reputation for poor service on the Michigan Air Line by finally delivering the mid week mall along the line so that it could be delivered to Pinckney and other towns on the line one day late. Injured passengers were compelled to remain in the South Lyon depot suffering for many hoars. A PARTY ROYAL Mr*. Roy Graham was the hostess of a very successful party given under the auspices of the Okeecho Class, Thursday, Augst 3rd, at her summer cottage, Base Lake. There were fifty people present, consisting ot members of the class, invited guests and nineteen children, all of whom were served an ample potluck luncheon under the shade trees. After lunch everyone took part in different forms of entertainment, some swimming, playing air ball, base ball, and performing stunts. At six o'clock the guests were surprised by some of the class members who brought a tub of ice cream to be served. Immediately after the ice cream and cake were served the party disbanded, everyone claiming Mrs. Graham to be an ideal hostess, and wishing their invitation had meant a week's stay rather than a day.

DEBT CANCELLING NOT CONSIDERED B R I T I S H S U G G E S T I O N IN N O T E G E T S N O F A V O R A B L E R E S P O N S E I N U. 8. AMERICAN ATTITUDE UNCHANGED Secretary Mellon Declares Government W i l l Continue Negotiations for Funding of Foreign Obligations. Washington—Cancellation of interallied indebtedness, as suggested by Great Britain in a recent note to European nations, has no place in the policy of the United States toward war time advances, high treasury officials have declared. In the view of Secretary Mellon, as explained at the treasury, the United State 8 has all to lose and nothing to gain through an all around cancellation of an International war debt and such a suggestion has never been considered by this government. The British note, according to Mellon, in no way changes the attitude ot the United States toward the expected liquidation of foreign indebtedness and will not alter its intention of continuing negotiations for funding the foreign obligation. Latest figures obtained at the treasury department showed the obligations of the various foreign governments to the United States, Including interest, accrued and unpaid, is close to J12,- 000,000,000. Of this amount Great Britain owes $4,746,000,000. The loans of Great Britain to her allies during the war totalled $8,765,- 496,000. This does not include $699,- 840,000 loaned by the British governments to the United States, dominions and colonies. The total loans of the United States under the Liberty loan act, not including unpaid Interest, were $9,434,000,000 so that the original amount of the loans of the British were about equal to those of the United States. Senator McCumber, North Dakota, chairman of the senate finance committee, and second in rank among the Republican members of the influential foreign relations committee, reflected the overwhelming view of the majority in congress. "We will never cancel our war debts," said Senator McCumber. "There is a very pronounced sentiment in the United States that our war debts should be taken up as soon as possible." "I am opposed to cancellation of war debts," said Senator Lodge, Massachusetts, Republican leader in the senate, "I favor liberal termB of settlement, however."

"All tfiese a d m i n i s t r a t i v e " - departm e n t s are connected by telephones, I t a k e it," said Assistant S e c r e t a r y Clifford one day to a member of his office force. "Oh yes, w e h a v e perfect telephone service between the d e p a r t m e n t s , " was the response, "Well, I think we will use t h e telep h o n e In transacting some of this business instead of writing so many l e t t e r s , " said Clifford.

T h e y served to call attention to a prog r a m set u p by the spoilsmen for a g e n e r a l raid on t h e d e p a r t m e n t s .

Dover for a few m o n t h s after bis appointment waa the most p o p u l a r office holder in Washington. Republican s e n a t o r s a n d r e p r e s e n t a t i v e s believed t h a t they h a d in him a faithful friend. M e m b e r s of t h e Republican national committee heralded tne fact t h a t at last t h e r e w a s one m a n c o n n £ 0 e d with t h e a d m i n i s t r a t i o n who w a s in favor of p u t t i n g out Democrats, even though they w e r e in t h e classified service. Some of t h e high-up Republicans were so enthusiastic a t t h a t p a r t i c u l a r time a s to believe t h a t sooner or later Dover would succeed Mellon a s secret a r y of the t r e a s u r y . While the Intriguing w a s going on. Secretary Mellon remained silent. When it c a m e time for him to t a k e a s t a n d he simply said t h a t the politicians could not run t h e t r e a s u r y department, a n d that so long a s he w a s s e c r e t a r y they would not be p e r m i t t e d to h a v e any hand w h a t e v e r in the administration of the d e p a r t m e n t . In the end, the President h a d to choose between Mellon and Dover. Although he had appointed Dover a t the solicitation of the Republican politicians, he could not afford to let a satisfactory secretary of the t r e a s u r y go in order that he might keep a m a n who w a s in g r e a t favor with the spoilsmen. And so after n e a r • ly t h r e e m o n t h s of turmoil Dover de> elded to get out. Professional Politicians Vexed. T h e professional politicians a r e very much distressed over the Dover resignation. T h e y feel t h a t the President bus to some extent gone back on them. With Dover out there is no one in the service of the government In an Imp o r t a n t capacity to whom they can turn with confidence. Newly appointed cabinet officers, w h a t e v e r their personal Inclinations may be, soon learn that they cannot permit the political spoilsmen to Interfere with the gove r n m e n t ' s business. T h r e e or four m e m b e r s of the present cabinet are not wedded to civil service, but not one of them Is willing to t a k e on himself the responsibility of t e a r i n g down t h e merit system In his d e p a r t m e n t . Unquestionably the civil service law needs revision, but every well-informed person realizes that the merit system is here to stay. T h e system has at least two ardent supporters in the cabinet. T h e s e are Charles E v a n s Hughes, secr e t a r y of state, and Herbert Hoover, secretary of commerce. Neither of these men has given the slightest consideration of politics in making appointments in his d e p a r t m e n t . It Is true that Republican politicians have been appointed to the diplomatic service since Mr. H u g h e s became secretary of state, but they are without exception personal appointees of the President. The one question Secretary Hoover asks of an applicant for a place in his d e p a r t m e n t is " H a v e you any special qualifications for this particular place?" Ready for Navy Scrapping. The Navy D e p a r t m e n t Is ready to begin the work of scrapping 28 battleships the day Great Britain, Prance, Japan, Ital> and the I'nited States exchange ratification of the t r e a t y limiting naval a r m a m e n t s , it Is estimated that It will cost $70,- (K>o,00O to wreck these fighters of the sea. T h e vessels to be destroyed, new and old, are estimated to represent an outlay of $50().000.000. Most of this money was er.pended on battle cruisers and battleships not yet completed but on which construction was started. It was figured that the United S t a t e s has invested in these new vessels about $330,000,000. Add to this the cost of the 15 old capital ships that a r e to be scrapped, and the halfbillion mark is not far away. T h e fifteen old ships range from the Maine, 20 y e a r s old, to the Michigan, 13 years old! T h i r t e e n uncompleted vessels, six battle cruisers of most m o d e r n type and seven battleships a r e also to go. T h e battleships range from 11 to 75 per cent completed, the a v e r a g e being about one-third. The doomed battle cruisers a r e from 12 to 35 per cent complete. However, two of the cruisers are to he converted into airplane carriers— t h e t r e a t y permitting this—and the a c t u a l scrapping will apply to only four cruisers. The Lexington and the Saratoga, each 33 per cent complete, h a v e been selected for airplane carriers. T h e remaining four cruisers— Constellation, Ranger, Constitution and the United S t a t e s — m u s t be used as t a r g e t s or sold for t h e metal t h a t is in them. In disposing of all t h e vessels, old a n d new, the naval board recommends t h a t they "be disposed of by sale unless, sunk by gunfire." However, It ts explained a t t h e Navy D e p a r t m e n t , It is h a r d to sell war vessels. They are unsulted for merchant use because of the weight of their a r m o r a n d small freight-carrying capacity. Their machinery will fit into no other ship, a n d t h e expense and inconvenience of removing t h e machinery are practically prohibitive. The most t h a t can be expected Is a buying order from i o m e one who w a n t s to strip t h e vessels of their metal and furnishings. Indications are, therefore, t h a t most of t h e condemned vessels will be towed to sea and sunk. The Navy Dep a r t m e n t , nevertheless, h a s already sold two of t h e vessels—the Maine and the Missouri. E a c h w a s bought for Junk purposes.

"CROW DOG SAY HE COME"— WAS READY TO DIE WH E N Spotted Tall, backed by t h e military whom he had aided, usurped the head chieftainship of the Brule Sioux, his high-handed act w a s bitterly resented. Chief Crow Dog (Kangi Sunka) took a vow to kill the head chief if ever he disgraced the n a m e of the Sichangu (Brules). Years passed. Spotted Tall, drunk with power, misused his high office for personal ends. His people murmured but were powerless. Then he coveted the wife of Medicine Bear and, coveting, took her. Crow Dog, a relutlve of Medicine Bear, remembered his vow. On August 5, 1SS1, he met Spotted Tail and shot him deud, after which he gave himself up. H e was tried at Deadwood, S. D., convicted of murder and sentenced to be hanged. Crow Dog asked permission to say farewell to his family, promising to return on the day set for the execution. When Crow Dog did not show up the next day, Indian police were dispatched to get him. H e was not at home and his wife told them t h a t the chief had wished to return to prison alone and would surely keep his promise. The next day the chief walked into the Jail -at Rapid City. "Crow Dog say he come," was his laconic reply to the surprised greeting of his jailer. Meanwhile efforts were being made to save his life by a stay of execution. His case was carried to the Supreme court of the United States which ruled t h a t t h e federal courts had no Jurisdiction over crime committed by one Indian against another on a reservation. So Crow Dog walked out of prison a free man. Ten years later Crow Dog was In the limelight again, as one of the Brule leaders who fled from the Rosebud agency during the (J host Dance craze to join the Ogallalas In the Bad L a n d s . The Brule chief was soon convinced that their cause was hopeless and he counselled surrender. But the irreconcllables were still eager for war. They caught up their rifles and threatened to shoot those who wavered. Seeing this Crow Dog drew his blanket over hla head. "I do not wish to know who would be guilty of slay'ng a brother Dakota," he said. His words so Impressed the warriors that civil war was averted and the hostlles sullenly filed into the agency to surrender. It was Crow Dog's last w a r trail. From that day he lived in peace on the Rosebud reservation until his death August 12, 1912. C A P T A I N G E O R G E S W O R D DEF I E S HIS T R I B E S M E N ODDS of 120 to 1 a r e not usually considered a good sporting chance, yet Capt. George Sword (Miwakan Yulia—"Man Who Carries a Sword") once took them—and won 1 At the time he was captain of the Indian police on the Pine Ridge reservation, recently organized by Agent McGllllouddy In face of the bitterest opposition from Red Cloud's Ogallalas, T h e last great Sun Dance of the Sioux, held at Red Cloud's camp in 1881, was attended by 10,000 Ogallalas and 2,000 Brules from the Rosebud reservation. One morning a Brule chief called on McGtlllcuddy and In a most offensive m a n n e r demanded food. The agent ended the Interview by kicking him out of the door. Wild with anger the Indian rode away t h r e a t e n i n g to kill every white man on the reservation. McGtlllcuddy had only nine white men with him at the time, and although Sword and his 100 policemen were near at hand, they were an unknown quantity when it should come to fighting their own people. But the agent was not long left In doubt. Suddenly a band of Indians, stripped to w a r bonnet, breech clout and moccasins, dashed up to the agency. It was Sword and his policemen. They had discarded their uniforms and In the costume of Sioux w a r r i o r s were ready to come to death grips with their own people in defense of their white chief. Within an hour t h e Brule chief was back with 400 warriors, and although they made a most threatening demonstration before the agency, they were so impressed by the determined front presented by Sword and his men that they did not attack. T h e next day McGllllcuddy's party, escorted by Sword's policemen, went to t h * Sun Dance. J u s t before they reached the Indian camp, Sword put his company through a mounted drill, then suddenly breaking his cavalry formation, he led them in a wild charge straight at the big camp. Round and round the village his young daredevils circled, shouting their w a r cries and shooting over the heads of their people so fast that the bullets were dropping on the lodges like hail. It was his challenge to the tribe—100 defying 12.100! His bluff was not called. For years Captain Sword w a t captain of police and judge of the Indian court. He helped turn his peopie from the pursuits of war Into the p a t h s of peace. His reward? In his old age be begged the government for a pension but his plea w a s never granted. H e died In poverty October 17, 1410. Silk and Linen Street Clothes T h e summer street dress has come to be a work of a r t all in a class by Itself. Today, a s you walk along the street, notes a fashion writer In the New York Times, you are not impressed by the general dowdlness of female human nature, but you a r e quite overcome by the general smartness which t h e crowd as a whole reo- Long, Loose Coat of Heavy White Crepe Embroidered in Black and Lined With Red. resents. Not only are there a few high lights In the way of smart suits and dresses, but the common tenor of the crowd holds you spellbound with the air of fashionable attire that predominates. It may be that all of the dresses that women are wearing have suddenly taken a leap as regards their character and tone. But certain It Is that the street clothes have established a brand-new standard. Time was when women on the street or at functions where street clothes were demanded all looked more or less alike. There was a fixed standard from which it was not possible to deviate to any large extent. Now all that Is changed in the most miraculous and Interesting way. Every woman ymi meet Is different from the last. Each one lias something, it seems, that is original about the gown or suit sin* has chosen to wear. Each one seems bent upon exhibiting her own individuality to the full extent of her personal powers. And for these reasons, there has come about this subtle change in the appearance of the dressing of the crowd. Then, among all of the existing good dressing, there stand out above all the rest certain spots that are oven more beautiful than the rest and others which have about tlicni that air which says "We shall lead the fash- Ions of a coming season." It Is interesting tct notice them as you go about. Those with distinction above the ordinary find no ditheulfy in asserting their own. They are not by miv means ornate nor overt rimmed with extra additions. They are, on the contrary, conspicuous for their extreme simplicity and the brilliance of perfection with which their designers have carried out the idea of the elimination of detail. The silk coat 1« a development of this season which serves, more than any other one achievement, to make the general tone of the dressing of the women reach a much higher level. It Is not so heavy that it can be culled hot, but, on the other hand, it has that air of formality which so notably tits it for wear upon the street. White Coat of Crepey Silk. One of the newest of these coats happens to be made of white. Its material is one of those heavy, crepey silks which have about them so much body and so much character that the\ are fit to be classed in this connection with woolens of any variety, weight or weave from which these coats are made. Then, because the weight of silk Is so Inconsequential a thing. It can afford to have n lining, and just here is where the chief beauty of the wtioie situation enters. For the linings, thin season, are carrying about with them in their secluded roles n great deal of the style and distinction which Is the portion of these modern coats. And again. Just as is the case with the white silk cont. these newer wraps offer a fine opportunity for placing of t h e big, beautiful bands of handworked embroidery that play so conspicuous a part in giving the style and droop and hang to the coat once its lines have been perfected as a basic idea. The white coat, for Instance. Is supplied with a wide band of black embroidery along the bottom of the front panel, and that Idea Is repented on the sleeves. Then the lining for this wrap is done in cherry-red crepe de chine of the very softest quality, so that glimpses of t h a t hot and glorious color against the outer surface of black and its contrasting white m a k e just t h e prettiest sort of a picture. And t h e dress worn under a w r a p of this sort sinks into obscurity because of the beauty of t h e outer covering. It can be either a plain black dress or one of white that 1B designed quite without trimming, for the coat supplies all of the dash of decoration and color that could possibly be desired. Coata Match Dreaaes. T h e costume suit, which w a s so loudly heralded in the fall h a s carried over into summer with all of Its finest points to the fore, and It bids fair to lie one of those things which, In the fall, we will cling to an an inspiration not to be foresworn. One of the very latest ones is the long-walsted, s h o r t - p e p l u m e d coat. There Is every attraction h e r e of feminine grace and charm, and at the same time the suit, either with its coat or without It, lias every a t t r i b u t e of dignity to carry along with It. The dress portion of this costume suit is m a d e from a combination of that soft, cream-colored French cotton crepe, and the skirt is made from u lemonyellow ratine. Now those two materials are, to be sure, only the foundations. Upon them a r e superimposed many bands and lines of embroidery done in stitches of mercerized cotton in colors of black, brown, sparkling red and white. On the blouse these handwurked bands contain all of the colors, but when it comes to the skirt only the black and the white threads are used, and the s::me Is true of the b e l t m a d e oi . • I ,i;> -d p e^e of Mi ratine. Then i: coal is • ,a e , same fabric that goes to make the skirt of the frock worn underneath it. And the little jacket Is further embellished by bands of a dyed kolinsky fur carrying the softest of the darker tones of brown. The coat Is lined then with a soft, cream-colored silk having a smooth surface which t u r n s buck on the collar and cuffs and shows becomingly against the neck and against the puffed sleeves of the cotton crepe which jut out underneath the wide cuffed sleeves. One nice thing about the skirt to this frock is the way It pleats In on the sides. This gives a sufficient amount of room for walking, and at the same time it keeps that trig, straight look. Golden Brown Crepe. Another dress designed for street wear and worn, Indeed, by the very smart woman In New York was made of a golden brown crepe. The skirt had a straight panel at front and at back, white at the sides were these inserted sections of narrow side pleat- Ings. At the base of the skirt the li'tle pleats were tacked together so that the skirt pulfed nut above that point in a sort of harem fashion. Worn with this skirt there was a c;ipe jacket with loose and ilowlng sleeves through which oilier puffed sleeves of a Russian blouse bodice were seen to protrude. This little bodice of white had lines of Russian embroidery in tones of yellow and brown marching around the collar and down the front, w h i l e t h e e n d ' of i h o s l e e v e s h a d Long-Walcted Jacket Made to Wear With Dress of White Cotton Crepe and Ratine. frills over the bands peeping out from another band of the brightly colored Ruslan stitches. It Is wonderful to see how many women, and well dressed and good bulking women, too, have adopted the Russian blouse for serious wear upon the street. And these blouses, when they are at their most a t t r a c t i v e stages, are not made as a d a p t a t i o n s of the original ones, but they are Indeed those original models In their pristine state. T h e draped dresses t h a t a r e worn upon the street and at luncheons In the s m a r t r e s t a u r a n t s or shopping during the daya t h a t a r e not so hot, a r t p e r h a p s t h e moet graceful of a l t GIRL NOW WELL AND STRONG Dufker Took Ly£a E. ftfe* barn's Vegetable Coapoorf M Mother Adrised W a n a e o c , O h i o . — " M y d a u g h t e r a l - ways a a d backache and k g - a c h e a t ee*- ' u m i i i i i i i l i i i i i i i i itainpenodaandcoafcl not Se on h e r f e e t a t those t i m e s .

Defects found as follows: Eyes 881, ears 335, teeth 835, 561 were advised to have tonsils and adenoids removed -a large number of these should have immediate attention; visits to schools 21)2, hours spent in schools 281, visits to parents advising as to condition of child, 31(), health talks in school rooms 211, miscellaneous visits lfil. Have corrected 148 i ase.s, such as tonsils, adenoids removed, teeth filled or extracted, glasses procured, ti.s n result of this inspection. Finding so many school children below average weight, and this the type of child who is susceptible to tuberculosis, we decided to open tuberculosis clinics at nine points over the county, for adults or children, 11 clinics have been held with an attendance of 217, positive cases found, 10; suspicious cases (i.'J. Three have been admitted to the state stnitorium for treatment. Five eye clinics were held with an attendance of 77, cases recommended for attention, 28.

In all there has been 16 cases taken to Ann Arbor for removal of tonsils and adenoids. And so the story goes on, this is only a beginning of the work to be done.

The tele* Oorret*s desk bussed. says be will give the switchboard relief; had wanted to rofooe to see ho hod not refused; bo bad tm within the time Alan nod woittng Alan put his watch back Into his pocket and, crossing to the other office, found Spearman alone. There was no pretense of courtesy now in Spearman's manner; he sat motionless at his desk, his bold eyes fixed on Alan intently. Alan dosed the door behind him and advanced toward the desk. MI thought we'd better have some explanation," he said, "about our meeting last night" "Our meeting?" Spearman repeated; his eyes had narrowed watchfully. "You told Mr. Sherrlil that you were in Duluth and that you arrived home in Chicago only this morning. Of course you. don't mean to stick to that story with me?" "What are you talking about T Spearman demanded. "Ot course, I know exactly where you were a part of last evening, and you know that I know. I only want to know what explanation you have to offer." Spearman leaned forward, "Talk sense and talk It quick, if you have anything to say to me!" "I haven't told Mr. Sherrlil that I found you at Corvet's house last night ;• but I don't want you to doubt for a minute that I know you—and about your d—g of Benjamin Corvet and your cry about saving the Mlwaka!" A flash of blood came to Spearman's face; Alan, in his excitement, was sure of it; but there was just that flash, no more. He turned, while Spearman sat chewing hla cigar and staring at him, and went out and partly closed the door. Then, suddenly, he reopened it, looked in, reclosed it sharply, and went on his way, shaking a little. For, as he looked back this second time at the dominant, determined, able man seated at his desk, what he had seen In Spearman's face was fear; fear of himself, of Alan Conrad of Blue Rap- Ids—yet it was not fear of that sort which weakens or dismays; it was of that sort which, merely warning of danger close at hand, determines one to use every meant within his power to save himself. Alan, still trembling excitedly, crossed to Corvet's office to await Sherrtll. It was not, he felt sure now, Alan Conrad that Spearman was opposing; it was not even the apparent successor to the controlling stock of Corvet, Sherrlil and Spearman. That Alan resembled some one—some one whose ghost bad seemed to come to Spearman and might, perhaps, have come to Corvet—was only incidental to what was going on now; for in Alan's presence* Spearman found a threat—an active, present threat against himself. Alan could not Imagine what the nature of that threat could be. 'Was It because there was something still concealed in Corvet's house which Spearman feared Alan would find? Or was it connected only with that some one whom Alan resembled? e e e e e e Constance Sherril^f most active hought that day was about Henry Spearman, for she had a,luncheon en* gagement with him at one o'clock. The tea room of a department store offers to young people opportunities for dining together without furnishing reason for even innocently connecting their names too intimately, if a girl is not seen there with the same man too often. There is something essentially casual and unpremeditated about it— as though the man and the girl, both shopping and both hungry, had Juat happened to meet and go to lunch together. As Constance recently had drawn closer to Henry Spearman In her thought, and particularly since she had been seriously considering marrying him, she bad clung deliberately to this unplanned appearance about their meetings. She glanced across at him, when she had settled herself, and the first little trivialities of their being together were over. "I took a visitor down to your office this morning," she said. "Yea," he answered. 'Constance was aware that it was only formally that she had taken Alan Conrad down to confer with her father; since Henry was there, she knew her father would not act without his agreement, and that whatever disposition bad been made regarding Alan had been made by him, e e e e e e "Did you like him, Henry? I hoped you would." He did not answer at once. The waitress brought their order, and he served her; then, as the waitress moved away, he looked across at Constance with a long scrutiny. ••You've seen a good deal of him, yesterday and today, your father tells me,H he observed. "Yea," "It s plain enough you like him," he remarked. She reflected seriously. 'Tea, I do; though I hadn't thought of It Just that way, because I was thinking most about the position he waa in and about —Mr. Corvet But T do like him." "So do I," Spearman said wltb a seeming heartiness that pleased her. "At least I should like him, Connie, if I bad the sort of privilege you have to think whether I Uksd or disliked him. Pve bad to oonsldor him from another point of flow whethoi I could trust him or most distrust him." •'Distrust?" Constance bent toward him Impulsively in her surprise. "Distrust him? In relation to what? Why?" "In relation to Corvet, ShervUl and Spearman, Connie—the company that involves your interests and your father's and mine and the Interests of many other people—small stockholders who have no Influence in Its management, and whose Interests 1 have to look after for them." MI don't understand, Henry." *Tve had to think of Conrad this morning in the same way as I've had to think of Ben Corvet of recent years —as a threat against the interests of those people." Her color rose, and her pulse quickened. Henry never had talked to her, except in the merest commonplaces, about his relations with Uncle Benny; it was a matter in which, she had recognized, they had been opposed; and since the quarrels between the old friend whom sfc« had loved from childhood and he, who wlsh»d to become now more than a mere friend to her, had grown more violent, she had purposely avoided mentioning Uncle Benny to Henry, and he, quite as consciously, had avoided mentioning Mr. Corvet to her. "I've known for a good many years," Spearman went on, reluctantly, "that Ben Corvet's brain was seriously affected. He recognized that himself even earlier, and admitted it to himself when he took me off my ship to take charge of the company. I might have gone with other people then, or it wouldn't have been very long before I could have started in as a ship owner myself; but in view of his condition, Ben made me promises that offered me most. Afterward his malady progressed so that he couldn't know himself to be untrustworthy; his Judgment was Impaired, and he planned and would have tried to carry out many things that would have been disastrous for the company. I had to fight him—for the company's sake and for my own sake and that of the others, whose Interests were at stake. Your father came to see that what I was doing was for the company's good and has learned to trust me. But you for the Joy of overwhelming others by his own decisive Btrength and power. And she had been almost ready to marry that man for his strength and dominance from chose qualities; and now she knew that he was merciful too—Indeed, more than merciful. In the very contest where she tad thought of him ae most selfish and regardless of another, she had most completely misapprehended. "I ought to have seen!" she rebuked herself to him. "Surely, I should have seen that was It 1" "How could you see?" he defended her. "He never showed to you the side he showed to me and—In these last years, anyway—never to me the side he showed to you. But after what has happened this week, can you understand now; and you can see why I have io distrust the young fellow who's come to claim Ben Covert's pla^-e." "Claim!" Constance repeated. "Why, Henry, I did not know he claimed anything; he didn't even know when he raine here—" "He seems, like Ben Corvet" Henry said slowly, "to have the characteristic of allowing one aide to you, another to me, Connie. With you, of course, he claimed nothing; but at the office— Your father showed him this morning the instruments of transfer that Ben sevms to have left conveying to him all Ben had—bts other properties and his Interest an Corvet, Sherrlil and Spearman. I very naturally objected to the execution of those transfers, without considerable examination, in view of Corvet's mental condition and of the fact that they put the controlling stock of Corvet, Sherrlil and Spearman In the hands of a youth no one ever had heard of—and .one who, by hit own story, never had seen a ship until yesterday. And when 1 didn't dismiss my business with a dozen men this morning to take him into the company, he claimed occasion to see me alone to threaten me." "Threaten you, Henry? How? With what?" "I couldn't quite make out myself, but that was his tone; he demanded an 'explanation,' of exactly what, he didn't make clear. He has been given by Ben, apparently, tho technical control of Corvet, Sherrlil and Spearman. His Idea, if I oppose him, evidently is to turn me out and take the management himself." Constance leaned back, confused. "He—Alan Conrad?" she questioned. "He can't have done that Henry! Oh, he can't have meant that!" "Maybe he didn't; I said I couldn't make out what he did mean," Spearman said. "Things have come upon him with rather a rush, of course; and you couldn't expect a country boy to get so many things straight He's acting, I suppose, only in the way one might expect a boy to act who had been brought up in poverty on a Kansas prairie and was suddenly handed the possible possession of a good many millions of dollars. It's better to believe that he's only lost his head. I haven't had opportunity to tell your father these things yet; but f wanted you to understand why Conrad will hardly consider me a friend." T i l understand you now, Henry," she promised. "You've Seen a Good Deal of Him, Yesterday and Today, Your Father Tells Me," He Observed. —you couldn't see that quite so directly, of course, and you thought I didn't —like Ben, and there was some lack in me which made me fail to appreciate him." "No; not that** Constance denied quickly. "Not that, Henry." "What was it then, Connie? You thought me ungrateful to him? I realize that I owed a great debt to him; but the only way I could pay that debt was to do exactly what I did— oppose him and seem to push Into his place and be an lngrate; for, because I did that Ben's been a respected and honored man in this town all these last years, which he couldn't have remained if Td <et him have his way, or If I told others why I had to do what I did. I didn't care what others thought about me; but I djd care what you thought; yet If you couldn't see what I was up against because of your affection for him, why—that was all right too." "No, it wasn't all right" she denied almost fiercely, the flush flooding her cheeks; a throbbing was in her throat which, for an instant stopped her. "You should have told me, Henry; or —I should have been able to see." '"I couldn't tell you—dear," he said the last word very distinctly, but so low that she could scarcely hear. "I couldn't tell you now—If Ben hadn't gone away as he has and this other fellow come. I eouldnt tell you when yon wanted to keep caTlng so much for your Uncle Benny, and he was trying to hurt me with you." She bent toward him, bar lips parted; but now she did not speak. She never bad really known Henry until this moment, she felt; the bad thought of him always as strong, almost brutal, fighting down fiercely, merclleotly, bis opponents and welcoming contest CHAPTER V I I I . Violence, At half-past threa, Alan left the office. Sherrlil had told him an hour earlier that Spearman had telephoned be would not be able to get back for a conference that afternoon; and Alan was certain now that In Spearman's absence Sberrill would do nothing further with respect to his affairs. Was there no ope whom Alan could tell of hit encounter with Spearman In Corvet's house, with probability of receiving belief? Alan had not been thinking directly of Constance Sherrlil, as he walked swiftly north to the Drive; but she was, In a way, present in all his thoughts. As he approached the Sherrlil bouse, he saw standing at the curb an open roadrter with a liveried chauffeur; he had seen that roadster, he recognised with a little start, in front of the office building that morning when Constance had taken him downtown. He turned Into the walk and rang the bell. The servant who opened the door knew him and seemed to accept his right of entry to the house, for he drew back for Alan to enter. Alan went Into the hall and waited for the servant to follow. "Is Miss Sberrill InF he asked. "I'll see, sir." The man dUappeared. Alan, waiting, did not hear Constance's voice in reply to the announcement of the servant but Spearman's vigorous tones. The servant returned. "Miss Sherrlil will see you In a minute, sir." Through the wide doorway to the drawing room, Alan could see the J smaller, porUered entrance to the room beyond—SherrlU's study. The curtains parted, and Constance and Spearman came Into this inner doorway; they stood an instant there in talk. As Constance started away, Spearman suddenly drew her bock to him and kissed her. Alan's shoulders spontaneously Jerked back and his hands clenched; be did not look away I aware that be bad She came to him, very quiet and very fluahed; then she was quite pale at the asked him, "You wanted me?" Ha was white as the, and could not speak at once. "You told me last night. Miss Sherrlil," he said, "that the last thing that Mr. Corvet did—the last that you know of—was to warn you against one of your friends. Who waa t h a t r She fluahed uneasily. "You mustn't attach any importance to that; I didn't mean you to. There was no reason for what Mr. Corvet said, except in Mr. Corvet's own mind. He had a quite unreasonable animosity—" "Against Mr. Spearman, you mean.* She did not answer. "His animosity was against Mr. Spearman, Miss Sherrill, wasn't itl That Is the only animosity of Mr. Corvet's that anyone has told me about" "Yes." "It was against Mr. Spearman thai he warned you, then?** "Yesi." "Thank you." He turned and, not waiting for the man, let himself out lie should have known It when he had seen that Spearman, after announcing himself as unable to get back to thi office, was with Constance. He went swiftly around the block U his own house and let himself in at tht front door with his key. The house was warm; a shaded lamp on the tabU in the larger library was lighted, a firs was burnlng'-in the open grute, and the roomB had b«>eu swept and dusted. Tb* Indian came into the hail to take his coat and hat "Dinner is at seven," Waassquaia announced. "You want some change about that?" "No ? seven is all right." Alan went upstairs to the room next to Corvet's which he had appropriated for his own Use the night before, and found It now prepared for his occupancy. When he came down again to the first floor, Wasseeuam was no where about, but he board sounds la the service rooms on the basement floor. He went part vay down the service stairs and saw the Indian in the kitchen, preparing dinner. Wassa* quam had not heard his approach, and Alan stood an instant watchlag tht Indian's tall, thin figure and the quick movements of his disproportionately small, well-shaped hands, almost Ukt a woman's; then he scuffed his foot upon the stair, and Wassaqusja turned swiftly about "Anybody been here today, Jldabr* Alan asked. "No, Alan. I called tradesmen; they came. There were young men from UN newspapers." "What did you tell them?" "Nothing." "Why n o t r "Henry telephoned I was to tod them nothing." "You mean Henry Spearman?" "Yes." "Do you take orders from him, t% dan?" "I took that order, Alan." Alan hesitated. "You've been beta in the house all day?" "Yes. Alan." Alan went back to the first floor as4 into the Bmaller library. The roots was dark with the early winter dusk, and he switched on the light; then he knelt and pulled out one of the drawers he had seen Spearman searching through the night before, and carefully examined the papers in It one by one, but found them only ordinary papers He pulled the drawer completely on! and sounded the wall behind it and tht partitions on both tides but they ap» peared solid. He put the drawer back In and went on to examine the next one, and, after that the others. The clocks In the house bad been wound, for presently the clock In the llbrarf struck six, and another In the hat) chimed slowly. An nour later, whet the clocks chimed again, Alan looked up and saw Wassaquam's small block eyes, deep set In their large eye aockr eta, fixed on him intently through tht door. How long the Indian had bees there, Alan could not guess; bo baa not heard his step. "What are yon looking for, AiftaT the Indian asked. Alan reflected a moment "Mr. She* rill thought that Mr. Corvet migH have left a record of tome tort hers for me. Judah.

"Nowhere else, Judah?" "If he put thinga anywhere elsa, Alan, I have not osen. Dinner it served, Alan."

Although green manuring Is one of the oldest methods ustjd to maintain or to increase the productivity of the soil, there have been enough new developments in the practice and in the plants used for the purpose In recent years to make desirable the publication by the United States Department of Agriculture of Farmers' Bulletin 1250, Green Manuring, by C. V. Piper and A. J. Pleters. The subjects discussed range from a definition of the term "green manuring," which means "the turning under of any crop, while green or soon after ripening, for the purpose of soil improvement," to descriptions of the many crops that are used for land betterment in most regions of the United States and In some other countries. The use of special green-manure crops, says the bulletin, is much more general in the South than in the North. In the semi-arid regions, for reasons made clear, under dry farming green manures are not used, but in Irrigated areas in the West orchardlsts depend upon them to a great extent to lncreuse the yield of fruit. Crops Benefit Soil. These crops that are grown primarily as roughage for feeding the soil produce both chemical and physical effects that are of benefit to plants that succeed them. When a green-manure crop is turned under, the various fertilizing elements that have gone Into the making of the crop ure returned | to the soil, and a quantity of organic matter not before in the soil Is added, nnd, in addition to Improving the physical condition, serves us food for beneficent bacteria. One of the most important functions of organic matter . in the i*>n is to keep up the nitrogen supply. The bulletin gives three ways in which this is done: (1) Growth of nodule bacteria on roots of leguminous plants; (2) the making of nitrates by soil bacteria from organic nitrogen in the soil ; and (3) growth of bacteria and molds that feed on plant waste in the soil and take nitrogen directly from the air. These processes may be stimulated by adopting the proper practices and suitable crops. Satisfactory Cover Crops. Legumes are of course the most satisfactory cover crops under most conditions, and all legumes do not have the same strain of nodule bacteria. For instance, that of clover is different from that of alfalfa, and j that of the cowpea is distinct from that of the soy bean. These selective associations of plants and bacteria make inoculation of the soil necessary where the crop has not been previously grown, either by scattering soil from a field where the crop to be sown has been grown recently or by using an artificial culture. A strain of bacteria will often inoculate differor where the soil Is poor and in need of organic matter, a green crop may often be worth more if turned under. It la known that the turning under of a green-manure crop may effect the yield of subsequent crops even to the third year, and this fact should have weight when the question of selling a legume hay crop or turning it undei is considered. A Regular Farm Practice. Green manuring in some form should be part of the regular farm practice on most of the farms east of the hundredth meridian and on irrigated land elsewhere. Rotations should be arranged so as to work In a green manure crop between regular crops without sacrificing direct money or feed crops. Preference should be given to a legume if possible. The value of these crops Is determined by the quantity of humus formed, measured by the tonnage of the crop, the physical changes brought about In the soil, and the quantity of nitrogen taken from the air and added to the soil. There are probably other factors that are as yet but little understood. It is said that green manure in orchards checks certain diseases and Improves the quality of the fruit. Order of Importance. The leguminous crops grown In this country listed in the bulletin in order of importance a r e : lied clover, alfalfa, alsike clover, sweet clover, cowpeas, peanuts, soy beans, velvet beans, ! An Excellent Stand of Alfalfa. crimson clover, field peas, vetch, Japan clover, bur clover, and white clover. A few others, such as beggarweed, grass peas, fenugreek, and horse beans are grown to a small extent In restricted localities. Non-leguminous crops that are considered as useful green manures are grasses, buckwheat, weeds, and some plants of the mustard family that are used more In Europe than in this country. The bulletin contains more than 40 pages of valuable Information on these plants and the ways of handling them; also tables of results that show their value in Increasing Returns. A copy may be obtained free by addressing the Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. A Field of Soy Beans, a Good Horns- Grown Feed, Rich In Protein and Excellent for Dairy Cows. ent closely related legumes. Alfalfa, bur-clqver, and sweet clover nodules are produced by the same strain; a different strain Inoculates moat of the vetches, as well as the field and garden peas; still another strain is apparently used In common by red, white, alsike, and crimson clovers. The question often arises, whether a crop should be turned under for green m ana re, fed on the farm, or sold as hay. Tlie authors sum op the argument as follows: Where a forage crop can be grazed or advantageously fed and the manure returned to the land, this will be found most profitable. Where Insufficient live stock la kept ERADICATION OF ALL WEEDS One of Most Serious Agricultural Problems Is Prompt Destruction of Noxious Plants. There Is nothing which has a graver menace to agriculture than our noxious weeds. It is all right to think of serious marketing problems and economic subjects, but the solution of these is not a bit more Important than the prompt eradication of Canada thistle, quack grass and other norious weeds. Town, city and village must lend mutual strength to the warfare on weeds. It Is a community problem, a personal issue. ROBBING SOIL OF FERTILITY Of Utmost Importance That Land Be Kept Fertile With Manure and Phosphorus. If farmers continue to rob the soli of its natural store of fertility, what is the next generation of human beings going to do" for food? Our best soils can produce profitably only 30 to 40 years unless they are*kept fertile, with manure, clovers, and finally phosphorus. | True i Detective Stories i i x * OUT OF THE AIR OopyrifJU by Tb« Wheeler Syndicate, lac. SOMEWHERE, somehow, the Germans were getting messages through from the United States to the fatherland. That much was certain. Washington knew it beyond the shadow of a doubt, but the way in which the messages were transmitted was a mystery—dark and apparently unfathomable. This was In the days before America entered the war, in the days when the United States was, theoretically at least, a neutral nation. But Von Bernstorff, Von Papen and the rest of the embassy at Washington were doing everything they could to further their schemes from this side of the Atlantic. But not even the secret service could penetrate the mystery of the messages. That these were flashed from the huge wireless towers on this side of the Atlantic, or relayed from the German radio stations, seemed fairly obvious. But how? "They must be sending the stuff through the air," argued the chief of the secret service to Talbot, one of his best men, "for the simple reason that we've closed all their other channels." "Any idea as to the code they are using?" asked Talbot. "None at all, but it's probably concealed somewhere In the messages which they send out to the ships at sea—press bulletins, stock quotations, and the like. We've studied them carefully, but haven't been able to find a thing." "How„ about the outburst from Nauen every morning?" "The only explanation for that seems to be that it's an attempt to 'fog the air* so that ships and other towers can't get anything through." "Yes, but in that case would the Germans send It for an hour early every morning? Why not all day long? And why that hash of language that doesn't mean a thing? If they were trying tx) fog things they'd wireless the Bible or Nietzsche or excerpts from some other long book instead of that mess of meaningless rot." "All right," retorted the chief, "if you think there's a clue there, go to It." But Talbot didn't begin his investigations with a study of the. Nauen "hast." He made his way at first to the laboratory of Charles E. Apgar, a deep student of wireless telegraphy. It was to Apgar that he told his troubles and, when he had Mulshed, the expert leaned forward and picked up something from the table in front of him. "See that?" Apgar asked. Talbot nodded. "Looks like an old-fashioned cylindrical phonograph record," he said. ".lust what it is," admitted the expert, "only YOU use it in connection with a wireless phonograph." "A wireless phonograph'.'" and the government operative's voice showed that he had never heard of such a contrivance. "Yes, a phonograph attached to the receiving end of a radio station. I finished working on it a few days ago, and I think it's Just what you need for this job. It wUL.f^ord and keep track of every sound that comes Into the station, enabling you to 'listen In' on messages months after they have been sent. With a supply of these records and the necessary patience you ought to be able to figure out the system the Huns are using, without their being any the wiser. It may take weeks or even months, but it's just a question of being everlastingly at it." Apgar was right. Talbot found that it took him nearly four months to get on to the system—four months of ceaseless llstenlng-in at the end of a De Forest audion detector which picks up sound waves from thousands of miles away, and even then he would never have located the secret had It not been for the wax cylinders. But with the aid of these automatic detectives he was able to repeat each message until he had it almost by heart, trying out the various combinations and symbols until he stumbled across the right one. Then, one morning, when the chief of the secret service least expected him. he burst Into the office with the exclamation : "I've got it—the fifth, tenth and fifteenth flashes! See?" nnd he held out a sheet of paper on which we-e row upon row of figures and letters, commencing with "5—8—K—14—B." "Looks Interesting," admitted the chief, "but what does It mean?" "Got a German dictionary here? No—well. I have. Luckily It's an old edition—Just the one they're using for the code. The lptters give the numbers of the pares, and the figures designate the words, the big ones in hold type. Five and eight K means the fifth and eighth words on page eleven. 14 B means the fourteenth word on page two, and so on. By spacing 'em so far apart in the meaningless wireless messages—or even in the press bulletins sent out from this side— they are able to fill In with tots of stuff to throw you off the scpnt. But the code's simple enough—that's what makes it such a wonder:" And It wasn't until Von Bernstorff received his sailing orders that he knew the secret service had been plucking his messages and* his Instructions out of the air. through the Ingenious use of a wax phonograph cylinder. When Baby Complains/ "THERE ARE MANY WAYS a baby has of expressing any pain or Irregularity * or digression from its normal condition of health and napjjiness, A short sharp cry, a, prolonged irritated cry. Restlessness, a constant turning of the head or of the whole boay, fretful. In these and other ways a baby tells you there is something wrong. Most mothers know that a disordered stomach, or bowels that do not act naturally are the cause of most of baby's sufferings. A call for the doctor is the first thought, but in the event of any delay there should be ready at hand a safe remedy such as Fletcher's Castoria. Castona has been used for baby's ailments for over 30 years and has merited the good will of the family physician in a measure not equaled by any other baby:s medicine because of its harmlessness and the good results achieved.

One feature of this year's picnic was the dinner given t o a b o u t 70 boys of the U of >I fresh air c a m p a t I.amhertson's lake.

T h e ball game was between Pinckney and Fowlerville. Pinckney was minus three of its regular players. Leo L a - vey was in Chicago, R o y Bird was ill and Adrian I.avey did n o t play. T h e game was full of thrills—one of those see-saw affairs with t h e result in doubt at every stage. Fowlerville putting one r u n across t h e plate in t h e ninth won 9 to 8. One unpleasant feature of the game was when Gannon, Fowlerville manager rushed-qn the field, remonstratingj against a decision by Bassett, the urn-' pire. Gannon h a d no right i n t h e field as he was not in uniform. After' retiring t o his proper place either he^ or his players s t a r t e d a session of umpire baiting that w a s disgraceful.' Bassett stood for i t awhile a n d then stepped in front of t h e Fowlerville gang and said a few well chosen words to them, after which t h e trouble was discontinued. j The features of the game were home runs by Kennedy a n d Spencer of; Pinckney and t h e bn.se running of the latter, who stole home after having been surrounded on t h e base path by nearly the entire Fowlerville team.

He dozed; for he awoke with a start and a feeling that some one had been bending over him, and gazed up into Wassaquam's face. The Indian had been scrutinizing him with Intent, anxious inquiry. He moved away, but Alan called him back. "When Mr. Corvet disappeared, Judah, you went to look for him up at Manlstique, where he w a s born—at least Mr. Sherrill said that was where you w e n t Why did you think you might find him there?" Alan asked. "In the end, I think, a man maybe goes back to the place where he began. That's all, Alan." "In the end 1 What do you mean by that? What do you think has become of Mr. Corvet?** "I think now—Ben's dead." "What makes you think that?" "Nothing makes me think; I think It myself." "I see. You mean you have no reason more than others for thinking it; but that is what you believe." "Yes." Wassaquam went away, and Alan heard him on the back stairs, ascending to his room. When Alan went up to his own •room, after making the rounds to see that the house was locked, a droning chant came to him from the third floor. He paused In the hall and listened, then went up to the floor above. A flickering light came to him through the half-open door of a room at fl»e front of the house) he went a little way toward It and looked In. Two thick candles were burning before a crucifix, below which the Indian knelt, prayer book In hand aDd rocking to and fro as he droned his supplications. A word or two came to Alan, but without them Wassaquam's occupation was plain; be was praying for the repose of the dead—the Catholic chant taught to him, as it had been taught undoubtedly to his fathers, by the French Jesuits of the lakes. The Intoned chant for Corvet's soul, by the man who had heard the Drum, followed and still came to Alan, as he returned to the second floor. He had not been able to determine during the evening, Wassaquam's attitude toward him. Having no one else to trust, Alan had been obliged to put a certain amount of trust In the Indian; so as he had explained to Wassaquam that morning that the desk and the drawers In the little room off Corvet's had been forced, and had warned him to see that no one, who had not proper business there, entered the house. Wassaquam had appeared to accept this order; but now Wassaquam had implied that it w a s not because of Alan's order that he had refuted reporters admission to the house. Alan started and went quickly to the opon door of his room, a s he heard voices now somewhere within the house. . One of the voice* he recognlaad a s Wassaquam's; the other Indistinct, thick, accusing—was unknown to him t It certainly - w a s not Spearman's, H e descended swiftly to the first floor, and found Wassaquam standing in the front hall, alone. "Who was here, Judah?" Alan demanded- "A man," the Indian answered stolidly. "Ho was drunk; I put him o u t " "What did ho come for?" "He -came to see Ben. I pot him out; he la gone, Alan." Alan flung opon the front door and looked o u t bat bo saw no one. "What did be want of Mr. Oorret, J u d a h r 1 do not know.

Wo; I do not.- P * sat sudden disappearance of the man might mean only that he had hurried away, but it might mean, too, that be was still lurking near the house. Alan had decided to make the circuit of the house and determine t h a t But as he came out on to the porch, a figure more than a block away to the south strode with uncertain step out into the light of a street lamp, halted and faced about, and shook his fist back at the house. Alan dragged the Indian out on to the porch. "Is that the man, Judah T* he dehanded. "Yes, Alan." Alan ran down the steps and at full speed after the man. But when he reached the corner, he was nowhere In sight Alan retraced his steps fer several blocks, still looking; then he gave it up and returned east toward the Drive. The side street leading to the Drive was not well lighted; dark entry ways and alleys opened on It; but the night was clear. Alan could see at the end of the street, beyond the yellow glow of the distant boulevard lights, the He Staggered, 8lipped, Fell Suddenly Forward Upon His Knees Under a Stunning, Crushing Blow Upon His Head From Behind. smooth, chill surface of the lake. A white light rode above It; now, below the white light he saw a red speck— the masthead and port lanterns of a steamer northward bound. Farther out, a second white glow appeared from behind the obscuration of the buildings and below it a green speck— a starboard light Information he had gained enabled him to recognize In these lights two steamers passing one another at the harbor mouth. His thoughts turned to Constance SherrUi. Events since he had talked with her that morning had put them far apart once more; but, In another way, they were being drawn closer together. For he knew now that she was caught as well as he In the mesh of consequences of acts not their own. He staggered, slipped, fell suddenly forward upon his knees, under a stunning, crushing blow upon his head from behind. Thought consciousness almost l o s t he struggled, twisting himself about to grasp at his assailant He caught the man's clothing, trying to drag himself u p ; fighting blindly, dazedly, unable to see or think, he shouted aloud and then again, aloud. H t seemed in the distance to hear answering cries i but the weight and strength of the other was bearing him down again to his k n e e s ; he tried to slip aside from i t to rise. Then another blow, crushing and sickening, descended on his head; even hearing left him and, unconscious, he fell forward on to the snow and lay stllL CHAPTER IX. A Walk Beside the Lake.

"The other?** T h e y ' r e only about six blocks from where be waa picked u p ; but they're on the Drive—the Lawrence gherrtllt." The interne whistled softly and looked more Interestedly at his patient's feature*.

If he's not known there, DO harm done; and If he's t n e of their friendt and he should . . ." The nurse nodded and moved oft That It w a s that t t a quarter to five Constance SherrUi waa awakened by the knocking of ono of the servants at bar father*! door. B a r father want down stairs to the telephone inks) n i g h t reply without disturbing Mrs. Bherrfll Constance, kimona over her shoulders, stood at the top of the stairs and waited. It became plain to her at once that whatever had happened had been to Alan Conrad. "Yea, . . . Yea. . . . You are giving him every possible care? . . . a t once," Bhe ran part way down the stairs and met her father as he came up. He told her of the situation briefly. "He w a s attacked on the street late last night) he was unconscious when they found him and took him to the hospital, and has bean unconscious ever since. No one can say yet how seriously he Is injured." She waited in the hall while her father dressed, after calling the garage on the house telephone for him and ordering the motor. When he had gone, ahe returned anxiously to her rooms; he had promised to call her after reaching the hospital and as soon as he had learned the puiticulurs of Alan's condition. It was ridiculous, of course, to attach any responsibility to her father or herself for what hud happened to Alan—a street attack such us might have happened to any uue —yet she felt that they were lu pun responsible. They had let him go to live iiloue in die house In Astor street with no better adviser tliun Wassail uam. Now, and perhaps becuuse Lhey had not warned him, he hud met injury and, it might be, more than mere injury; he might be dying. Something which had disturbed aud excited Alan had happened to him on the iirst night he had pussed in that houso; and now, it appeared, he hud been prevented from passing a second night there. What had preveoted him had been an attempted robbery upon the street, ner father cad said. But suppose it had been something else than robbery. She could not formulate more definitely this thought, but it persisted ; she could not deny it entirely and shake it off. To Alan Conrad, in the late afternoon of that day, this same thought was coming far more definitely and tar more persistently. He had been awake and sane since shortly after noonday. The pain of a head which ached tlnobblngiy and of a body bruised and sore was beginning to give place to a feeling merely of lassitude—a languor which revisited Incoherence upon him when he tried to think. The man who had assailed him had meant to kill; he had not been any ordinary robber. That purpose, blindly recognized and fought against by Alan in their struggle, had been unmistakable. Only the chance presence of passersby, who had beard Alan's shouts and responded to them, had prevented the execution of bis purpose, and had driven the man to swift flight for his own safety. A little before six Constance Sherrill and Spearman called to Inquire after him and were admitted for a few moments to his room. She came to him, bent over him, while she spoke the few words of sympathy the nurse allowed to her; she stood back then while Spearman spoke to him. In tinsucceeding days he saw her nearly every day, accompanied always by her father or Spearman; it was the full two weeks the doctors had insisted on his remaining In the hospital before he saw her alone. They had brought him home, the day before—she and her father, In the motor—to the house on AlStor street. He had Insisted on returning there, refusing the room In their house which they had offered; but the doctor had enjoined outdoors and moderate exercise for him, and she had made him promise to come and walk with her. He went to the Sherrill house about ten o'clock, end they walked northward toward the park. 'There Is something I have been wanting to ask you," she said. "Yes." "That night when you were hurt—It was for robbery, they said. What do you think about It?" She watched him as he looked at her and then away; but his face was completely expressionless. "The proceedings were a little too rapid for me to judge, Miss Sherrill." "Bat there was no demand upon you to give over your money before you were attacked?" "No." She breathed a little more qnlckly. "It must be a strange sensation," she observed, "to know that some one has tried to kill you." "It must. Indeed." "You mean you dldnt think that fie tried to kill y o u r **I w a s hardly in a condition. Miss Sherrill, to appreciate anything about the man at all. Why do you ask?" "Because—" She hesitated an Ins t a n t "11 you were attacked to be killed, It meant that you must have been attacked as the son of—Mr. Corv e t Then that meant—at least tt Implied—that Mr. Corvet w a s killed, that he did not go away.

"Mr. Sherrill didn't feel that it was necessary for him to do anything, even though he thought that?" "If Mr. Corvet was dead, we could do him no good, surely, by telling this to the police; if the police succeeded in finding out all the facts, we would be doing only what Uncle Benny did not wish—what he preferred death to. We could not tell the police about it without telling them all about Mr. Corvet, too. So father would not let him. self believe that you had been attacked to be killed. He had t o believe the police theory w a s sufficient" Alan made no comment at once. "Wassaquam believes Mr. Corvet Is dead," he said tinally. "He told me so. Does your father believe that?" "I think he is beginning to believe it." "I've not told any one," he said, now watching her, "how I happened to be out of the house that night. I followed a man who came there to the house, Wassuquain did not know his name* He did not know Mr. Corvet was gouej for he came there to soe Mr. Corvet He was not an ordinary friend of Mr. Corvet's; but he had come there often, Wassaquam did not knu^* why.

"That was not the first man who came to the house," he we*t un quickly, a» she waa uhout to speak. "I found a man In Mr. Corvet's house the tirst night that I spent there. Waasaquam was away, you remember, ^ud I was alone in die house." "A man there in the bousi?" siit» re. pea ted. "He was going through Mr. Cm vet « things--not the silver and ail that, but through his desks and hies and cases.

District includes Genelee, Oakland, Livingston, Ingham Counlic* and part of Wayne County. FARM BUREAU NOTES CONDITION OF CROPS The average codition of nearly all crops in the State according to the August 1 report issued is slightly lower than .i month ago. This is mainly due to a lack of rainfall during .July in the southern four tiers of counties. The drought became quite serious in St. Clair Macomb, Wayne and portions of nearby counties toward the end of the month. The rainfnl was ample in contra] and southern Michigan and all crops were in a generally thrifty condition. Some hay was damaged while .being cured by the frequent rainfall in those portions of the State. The yields of w h e a t and rye proved to be disappointing in many localities as has been the case in surrounding states Fruit and truck crops promise well. BLIGHT IN POTATO AREAS That late blight is actually menacing the potato crop of Michigan has been evidenced within the last few days by the receipt of specimens of plants Inj e c t e d with the disease at the botany d e p a r t m e n t of M. A. C. The danger from blight due to cold wet weather in the early part of the season, was pointed out not long ago by Dr. G. H. Conns, plant pathologist, who recomended thorough spraying with Bordeaux mixture as a preventative measure. The disease is said to be threatening potato fields in the Upper peninsula and in many counties of the lower peninsula, I In spite of the fact that there wasn't any work done on Boys' and Girls' Club Work until .June first, they have made a place for themselves. The selection has been made in cooperation with the Boys' and Girls' Club dep a r t m e n t of M. A. C. on a basis of the work that has been done. Word was received by County Agent C. L. Bolander last week that Livingston County has been selected as one of these four to get a free trip to the State air. These t e a m s will compete at the State F a i r for the free trip to the International Livestock Show. The boys from. Livingston County who are competing fo rthe high team are W a r d Stowe, Glenn A r m s t r o n g , H o w a r d Wilson, Iosco Original Club; Glenn Gibson, Ralph Copeland, H a n d y Didit Club; and Harold Lawson, Robert Borden, Spencer Worthington, H o m a g o Club. These boys go to East Lansing the 18th and 19th to get instructions at M. A. C. for the finals. Three of the other counties will have delegates there at the same time to be drilled. The boys will go to M. A. C. under the leadership of W a r d Andrews Club leader for the H o m a g o Club. It is the aim of the County Agent to have all the Club members from the County to exhibit at the County Fair at Howell With seventy five livestock exhibits to be shown at the County Fair; about two hundred cans of canned goods to be exhibited by the twenty three canning club girls, and the work of one sewing club, it should make an addition to the Fair that will be quite noticeable.

The dust or mud, the grease and grime, the tedious delay—all are things we like to avoid But the time to think about these things i* when you buy the tire—not after the blow-out occurs. For some tires blow out much more easily than others. Outward appearance counts for little. It ia the material te the tire and the construction of it that determines its strength. Qoodyear recognizes these facta and all Goodyear Tires are made of long staple cotton. Take the 30 x 3 # Cross Rib Clincher Tire here illustrated, for example. It ia made of Egyptian and Arizona cotton, tht fibres of which average \yi inches long. Many 3 0 x 3 ^ clincher tires are made of abort staple cotton from yi inch to l H inches long. This means less strength and greater danger of blow-outs—more tire troubles. Yet this high grade guaranteed Goodyear Tire coats only $10.95. You can buy some tires for even leas than this but none with the fine materials and construction of this one. Can you afford to take a chance on more frequent 'tire troubles for the sake of the slightly lower price Of cheaper tires?

REST OF PROGRAM DROPPED Administration's Ship Subsidy Measure Evidently Hasn't a Chance of Getting Through During th« Present Ssasion of Congress. By JAMES P. HORNADAY Wasnington.—The senate which has been struggling along with the wool schedule of the tariff bill—not a most desirable hot-weather topic—would not make much of a protest if President Harding should suggest that the tariff bill be abandoned and thia session of the congress brought to an end. But the President does not Intend to make any such suggestion. He feels that the Republican majority in congress, having undertaken a revision t>f the tariff, should complete the J6b. Whether he will sign any kind of an old bill which Is presented to him is a question which will not be answered tinttt congress completes a revision. The* senate could, of course, recommit the tariff bill to the committee on finance any day if it desired to do it and that would pigeonhole the subject for this session, but the Republican leadership in the senate, such as there is, much as it would like to be rid of t h e tariff bugaboo, has not the courage to advocate pigeonholing the bill. Af for the rest of the legislative program, it has gone by the board, apparently. The real problem before the Republicans in the two branches of the legislative body now is to get the tariff bill through before the heat of the congressional campaign comes on. No one any longer prophesies as to yrhen the senate will finish with the bill in its present form. The controversial nature of the proposed legislation makes it certain that the bill will be in conference a good while. Then after an agreement in conference— the conferees may almost completely rewrite tbe bill If they decide that is the thing to do—each legislative branch will take plenty of time to decide whether it favors the conference report. "October 1 Set as the L i m i t Ninety-five per cent of tbe members of the house of representatives will Insist on an adjournment of this session not later than October hi order that they may give proper atteution to their campaigns for re-election, and one-third of the senators will be In the same frame of mind. So It Is generally agreed that the tariff legislation must be In the hands of the President by the last week In September. Most of tbe Republican leaders are setting their heads very determinedly against attempting any other important legislation in the meantime. It is now about as certain as anything can be, short of the actual development, that there will be no ship subsidy legislation at this session. President Harding, according to persons who are competent to speak, has practically abandoned hope of getting the administration subsidy bill started durlng this session. The nation-wide campaign in the Interest of the measure, much talked about six weeks ago, will not be undertaken. The members of the house of representatives—the Republican members in particular—who were to have set this campaign going during the recess of the house, have not done a thing. There is no attempt to conceal the administration's keen disappointment over the failure of the Republican representatives to take the time during their stay at home to tell the people about the fine points of the proposed subsidy legislation. So far as the administration is advised, not a single speech in favor of fehip subsidy has been made by a member of the house since the recess came on. Not a Chance for Subsidy Now. The outlook now is that the powersthat- be in the house of representatives will decide soon after August 15, the date on which the house is to reconvene, that subsidy legislation must go over. President Harding said publicly some time ago that he would recall the congress if it should adjourn without giving the administration's trabsidy bill due consideration, but a good many things have happened since the President made that observation. As a matter of fact the administration Is not interested at all Just now in legislative matters. The President and his advisers are too much concerned with the Industrial situation to give any special thought to anything else. Even If the house should under pressure from the White House pass the subsidy bill, the legislation will be pigeonholed In the senate. President Harding during the last few days h a s made It a little clearer perhaps than ever before that if bonus legislation should be passed without any provision for getting the money with which to pay the service men, he would veto the bill. The Republican leaders In the senate now understand perfectly well how the President feels tUwit this legislation and the chancer ttiat an effort will he made to put a b o n v bill through following the passage of the tariff bill are dally becoming W>re remote. Country Ssfs From Invasion. The Nstional Defense Act of 1920 prescribes that "the organised peace! •tUbllsboBent Including the regular i army, the National Guard a&i the organised reserves, shall include all of those divisions and other military organizations necessary to form the basis for a complete and immediate mobilization for the national defense Ua the event of a national emergency declared by congress." So far as the defense of the continental United States is concerned, the law evidently contemplates as a minimum requirement for security that the country should be definitely organized to prevent an Invasion in force at the outbreak of hostilities. The military experts say that before the World war such a definite and comprehensive plan was impracticable. Our military resources were too limited and there was no legal sanction for the development of such a system. Since the World war, with the large number of war-trained >«Bcers available, with the initlattb*. of a system for the training of younger men ultimately to replace them, with more adequate sources of military equipment and material, and with a settled legal sanction for the development and training of our traditional citizen arm? in time of peace, the general staff has been able to prepare definite plans for what has aptly been termed "A National Position in Readiness." Under this plan, the military organizations required to secure critical landing places on the coast line and favorable lines of advance upou the land frontiers can be definitely formed and prepared. Defense Is Assured. With such an initial organization assured, the additional military units required for the full prosecution of a serious war can be mobilized at once and brought to full strength without disturbance or interruption. With the territory thus protected against landings in force at the start, and with the machinery for further military ex* ' pansion fully organized, the fleet will be free to deal with the hostile naval forces without concern as to possible invasion. General Pershing says he Is pleased to report that the plans for the "National Position In Readiness" have reached a stage where their practicability, 1^ assured. With 18 divisions and appropriate auxiliaries of the National Guard, supplemented by the regular army prepared for necessary expansion, and with certain special units formed in the organized reserves, the country would be able to cover the coasts and land frontiers against serious Invasion at the start. Behind I this first line, tbe remaining units of 1 the organized reserves, fully const! I tuted with a framework of officers and | non-commissioned officers, will be pre* pared to undertake the training of : their raw recruits at once. The country will thus be able de llberately to develop its military powef to any necessary extent without risk i of serious disaster through surprise at ' the outbreak of war, and without thft necessity of maintaining a burdensome military establishment in time of peace. Such a military organization causes no menace to any other nation, ; hut assures the impregnability of the ; -mtinpntal T'nlted States in the event of attack by any possible hostile combination, General Pershing says. What General Pershing Says. "It Is recognized that the citizen components of the army of the United* States can be only partially trained prior to mobilization," continued the general. "While national defense comprises more than the preservation of our continental Integrity, the initial accomplishment of such security will afford time for the orderly development of our great military resources. Therefore, the permissible minimum of peace training is that required to prevent invasion at the outbreak of war. "For purposes of illustration, let it be assumed that a National Guard division Is assigned the initial mission of defending a given beach section. Upon mobilization the combatant elements of this division at peace strength would be ordered to a training area within reach of this section, which would be prepared for defense. Thereafter It would be practicable to complete the mobilization, equipment and training of the division at war strength. Continuous development in the beach position would not be necessary after its preparation for defense. The troops could be moved back to a convenient training area and could rely upon naval and air reconnaissance to give ample warnings of a possible attack. Thus the initial mission for this division determines the minimum degree of training which mu8t be assured In time of peace, the extent t o which It must be Initially supplied with equipment, and the place where it will have Its original concentration." i True I Detective Stories FOURTH DEGREE Hostile to Dogs and Men.

I no, TIERE was but little doubt in the mind of Thomas Byrnes, superintendent of police in New York city, that Louis Hanier had been murdered for the. sake of the money that he was carrying with him at the time. The little Frenchman had been the proprietor of a cafe, and, having a fear of the banks of America, had the habit of carrying hundreds of dollars in his wallet until the opportunity presented itself of purchasing an international money order. One morning he was found dead in the vestibule of his home, a .88 caliber bullet through his heart, and his pocketbook missing. That was all Byrnes bad to work upon, for there were no indications whatever of the persons who had committed the crime. The dispatch with which the matter had been bandied, appeared to point to a professional criminal, so Byrnes gave orders that all the pawnshops In New York were to be closely watched, and reports made to him of the pawning of any ,38 caliber revolvers. Investigation of the dozen or more .38's pawned during the week which followed the Hanier Bhooting, showed that all but one of them had been pledged by persons who very evidently had no connection with the murder. The single exception was one Michael McGloin, whom the pawnbroker in question Identified by means of his photograph in the Rouges' gallery. McGloln's gun had been pawned on the morning after the murder, and, while the police had little difficulty in locating the man himself, there was not a shred of evidence to connect him with the Hanier case, beyond the fact that he had been absent from home on the night of the shooting In the company of four of his boon companions. Quietly, and without allowing a word of his intentions to leak out, Byrnes rounded up the quintet one at a time, none of them knowing that the others were being arrested. Each of them was lodged in a cell by himself and questioned closely as to hi* actions and his whereabouts at the time of the murder, in spite of the fact that Byrnes had definite information that the five men hRd been together, each of them told a different story, and each claimed to have been alone, at n considerable distance from iho Hanier house. "It's no use, inspector," said one of the policemen who had been working on the case about a week after the five men had been picked up, "you can't get a thing out of 'em. They know, all right, but you can't convict any of 'em without a confession—and we've tried everything. Including the 'third degree.' " "Very well," said Byrnes quietly, "we'll have to try the fourth degree." "Fourth degree? What's that?" "Just a little way of getting at the truth when a man wants to hold out on you,'' v.-ns Byrnes' answer. "You think there's no doubt that McGloln's the man? Have him brought to this office tomorrow morning, promptly at ten o'clock." At the time specified, McGloin, sullen and resentful at what he claimed was an Illegal detention, walked into the inspector's office, alone. Had he been interested in such details, he might have noted that Byrnes was seated so that he could watch the window of his office which looked out upon a corridor, and also keep an eye upon the occupant of the only chair In the room, bolted to the floor in front of the desk. But McGloin wasn't worrying about such trifles. He was there to demand his release, and he told the Inspector so in no measured terms. "That's all right, McOloln," replied Byrnes. "Sit down a minute. I've several things to attend to," and he motioned to the chair, placed so that It too commanded a view of the corridor window. A moment later the office door opened and a man came In. Byrnes, watching the guuman closely, saw that he was barely able to suppress a start—for the visitor was the pawnbroker w i t h whom McGloin had pledged his revolver. Without saying a word, the pawnbroker crossed the room, laid McGloln's gun on the Inspector's desk and walked out. "Neat litt>e boy." remarked Byrnes, picking up the revolver. "Ever see It before?" "Never," growled McOloln. "I thought not," was the reply. "It's the gun that Hanier, the Frenchman, was shot with. We've finally got a line on that case, after working on It for over a month. Found a man who was a witness of the shooting—" At this moment, by a prearranged signal, one of McGloln's partners was marched past the corridor window. "Yes," continued Byrnes, appearing not to notice the gunman's agitation, u and we've also found s man who was present"—at which the second of the quintet was ushered past the window— "and two others who have confessed their part in the robbery but who claim that the man who fired the shot was . . ." "Slop it, for God's sake, chief P cried the half-crazed msn In the chair, his nerves shattered by the solitary confinement and the marshalling of evidence under his very eyes. "Stop It!

STORK MADE LONG JOURNEY Bird Flew From Africa to Germany W i t h a Message From Exile to the Fatherland. The population of Llskau, Germany, noticed one day recently that one of the many storks which annually return to the neighborhood from distant southern zones to rebuild their nests was carrying something about Its neck which only human hands could have fastened there. Repeated efforts to approach the bird had failed, but one of the villagers tinally lured the stork Into his barn and then and there learned that the bird carried a little leather case In which a note was Inclosed. The note revealed that the stork had come all the way from East Africa, where & German colonist, Willi Bucha, has tils little farm near Victoria lake. Bucha must have anticipated that the bird spent his annual vacation In his beloved fatherland, so he wrote: 'Just a greeting to the fatherland." and used the stork to convey his message.

However, I welcomed them graciously and we sat down to talk. I noticed that Bobby, my small nephew, was studying me Intently, and during a lull In the conversation he said : "Auntie, you must have been good looking when you were young." "Yes," I beamed, with my pleasantest smile, scenting a compliment, "what makes you think so, dear?" "Because," answered Bobby, "uncle would never marry you the way yoo look now."—Chicago Tribune.

No heat with this summer meal ADISH of crisp, delicious Grape-Nuts, with cream or milk (some berries or fresh fruit, too, if you like) is cooling to serve, cooling to eat and cooling to digest—with a cha^m of flavor and goodness that rouses appetite enthusiasm. No preparation, no cooking-no heating of the body afterward, as heavy, starchy meals do—but well-rounded nourishment for every bodily need. There's a noticeable feeling of lightness and com* fort after such a meal. Try this way out of the heat, bother and uncertainty that usually goes with the midsummer food problem.

Plans are under way for a permanent summer camp, where thousands of boys can be entertained every summer, and several parcels of lake camping ground are being considered for this purpose. It is to be hoped that the camp will be located in this vicinity, a's our citizens are taking a deep interest in tms benevolent undertaking and are willing to cooperate with the management. The camp leaders and instructors who have done so much for the boys without asking financial remuneration for their services are as follows: Lewis C Reiman, Ann Arbor, Camp Director.

The Standard Oil station nearby was also visited the same night and the proceeds for the burglars can be rep-' 1 resented by a cipher. Except for the damage done in each instance there, was no loss. These are the latest of a series of burglaries committed in Pinckney recently. Some months ago the school house was broken into and damage to quite an extent was done by the vandals, and spine cash was stolen from the Superintendent's office. More recently the elevator was broken into and between twenty and thirty dollars taken. W. H. Clark, (irand Trunk agent, says the burglar-j ies were committed by boys in his opinion; the entrances were made in the same way, by forcing windows open. ANOTHER NARROW ESCAPE HOWELL MICH.

While on his way to Howell north of the Ernest Frost farm his automobile crashed through the road fence at the ditch crossing, the Dodge catapaulting into the ditch about 8 feet below the roadbed. >lr. Mowers was* thrown tlirough the windshield and landed several feet in front of the car. F. E. Weeks, who was following, took the injured man home and the car was* taken out of the ditch and brought back to Pinckney. Mr. Mowers suffered from the shock and two bruises and at first it waa feared he was injured internally but the fears seem to be groundless as he has now almost completely recovered. Just what caused the auto to make the dive into the ditch is a mystery as the road was clear—no autos approaching. The car Itself, while damaged considerably was driven to Pinckney on its own power. It was afterward tuken to Howell for repairs. AFTER MANY DAYS Valentine G.

Mr. Dinkle made no complaint about the burglary but ke"pt <]iiiet and "bided his time." Saturday night some young men Mad .some trouble in town and before the matter was finally adju'sted the cider thief was named and Mr. Dinkle says lie now has a good chance to collect for his loss or get legal satisfaction.
