I bare read with much interest ,vlut Mr. J- W. Baily has had to ayabaut the automobile and its tfects upon humanity, and agree with him iu tlle nlain> but 1 thil k JT. Bailey is mis aken when hp thinks that, like with the bicycle; die automobile will lose its fasci- jjting influence overhumanity, That will Uever be. unless some swifter mode of traveling takes it jlace. The flying machine may, to besomeextendent, supplant it in the distant future. As I see it, there is but one rem- Rmedv for the solution of huma­ nity, and that is to somehow, by a prohibitory price, by taxation or by some other means, put the auto­ mobile be yond the reach of any but the very wealthy class of peo- i P'e'I am not contending that there I is anything of itself wrong with the machine. It might be used to great advantage by those able to own one if used intelligently, and only far legitimate purposes, but so many do not use it that way, and there are multiplied thousands "who wathem and are not able to afford iheluxury. -• ' ...... If it were not possible to buy an automobile for less than three I thousand dollars, their effect on hu­ manity would not be bad, but the j day they were put in reach of poor 1 folks is going to stand on record CS the darkest day in the history cf humanity. I appeal to you men of mature thought throughout the country, how many young men, and boys, KarIy grown, do you know who I iven dream of earning money to iuy farm or a home? Kow many- tan you think whose highest pur- j pose and chief aspiration in life is lot to own an automobile, and en- |. Pi all that goes with it? hat is a nation whose inliabi- ! tints do not own the homes they lire in? Can such a nation endure I for long? Itneverhas and never 'till. Hundreds of thousands of men all Oter this country are out joy riding tjSverv minutes, who do not own 1 I(Mf Hig enough to shelter the adtine they are riding in, and Jher hundreds of thousands who J'tut enough laid by to give his Te a decent burial were she to die Wght. work all the week, pay off ,eir bill Saturday night—not all •'em do that—buy gasoline with at they have left, and ride it out « Sunday. 1 know a man who, five years Red in his own home, had a lhin<r^C'3 a<1C' owed 110 tuan anJr' , N bought an automobile weUtm to the b u sin ess o f “ rid - Jbout.” T oday h e h a s no jo b , •"He, and 110 automobile- ^ascmatmg-., they say> ..fasci, -kjVe lean 'Si P,Jy shy n>» a Ford.” Well, I Ued in uiy old age that it rettI safe plan for folks to 0 things that have a fps- Uiflueiinee.ttlUtinst ford r>S ri^lu" Ulth a man in a 1,6 te^ ered me the ttHiitY sayln=1 “ trying-to von can ^ 1,1 tlus stra,ght road, iFord 11 0Tt' U'‘S fasclnatlUg to run Ni I\-e I d' " no Slr’ thank '••ke in eeu fascinated once or toSetitxly *'fe aud 1 don't- wan’t The again 1 Ut°mobile get here a few hundred years too soon. We were not prepared for it. Our brains power neened a few more centures of development. It a wolf or a bob-cat kills a few lambs and a calf or two, way back in Wyoming, the gpvtrnmeut be comes alarmed and sends some pet parasite “expert hunter,” they call him, equipped and paid at public expense, to hunt down the depre­ dating animals and if.he succeeds'in doing- so in two dr three' years, printed' sheets, are 'sent over the c mntry telling about what “a Wis Old Wolf” lias been caught in a steel trap. The National Council of Safety estimates that there was one person killed every 25 minutes in auto ac­ cidents in 1911, and we do not hear a thing about the government being a bit concerned about it. It seems, however, that a few leaders of thought are becoming in­ terested and keep saying, “there is something going to have to be about i:, gentleman? A udwhereareyou going to begin doing it? Why don't you suggest something?" I will mention a few suggestions any one of which will at ,least heir some. - Allow no man to own an automobile who lias not first deposit­ ed with the clerk of the court a cer­ tified bond of $2,060, and hold him or his bondsman strictly responsible for any' damage to any person or property done by that machine, no matter"who is running it at the time. ' — Or, place patrol officers on every highway and run down and prose­ cute to the limit every speeder ,that is a.dead letter,--outside-cities-’and towns. , Another suggestion I would make is to allow no machine run on the public highways in North Qarolina capoble of a greater speed than fif­ teen miles an hour." No careful prudent man wants to travel at a greater speed than that, and those who are not- prudent and careful have no business running machines on public roads. . - Fifteen years ago a man owning an automobile cohldtt’t get justice in the couts of North Carolina if the automobile was involved. To­ day almost the exact opposite is true. Alas for public sentiment! And yet it governs society and rules oar actions in most of > lie affairs of life. ' - Ran Becanse He Wanted To. Over inPersonciunty there is a candidate who has got the right stuff in him. He says: . '■ I havehever held an office ar.d I’ve=always wanted one, therefore I hereby announce myself a candidate for coroner subject to the .Republi­ can primary. If nominated I will run my best, and if elected I believe that I will make good. I am sure I would know a 'dead man when T catch one.” • _ This statement is. equal to the one Bob Glenn made when he was run­ ning for the captaincy of the Eor- syth Rifles. A.friend, went to.-him and said: "‘ Why, Bob, here you are, a smart young lawyer, just -starting oufin the profession and rned to be studying and rising in it, what in the devil do you want to be captain "of a military company for?” To which the embroyonie governor re­ plied, ‘"Well, I ain’t never been cap­ tain, have I?”—Minroe Jonrnal. Nobody ever has explained why it is that justr after you’ve told your guests, out on a far away road, that you have ’never had a bit of trouble with his ,car since I got it,” the mot­ or givesa gurgls and a groan, wheez esand coughs a few times and then dies Truth isn’t stranger than some of the fiction men tell .when explaining how it happened that the boss pro- anted somebody ahead of them. • ■ A motor car that will not molje Would, ger a deacon's William Goat. But not a deacon that I know Would e'er admit bis boat would go. ■ - y * &■ Pt m The Home Paper. Tiie great mistake niany farmers and rural residents make relative to newspapers is that they esteem quantity rathe: quality; that is they will take a weekly or twice-a-week paper published in the. city because it come -cheap,- thinking -that will suffice and they have saved, a few pennies. While they have saved a f -W pennies in the pr.ice of the paper t ley have lost inaiiy dollars in that i iliueuce of that Citv paper on the younger, members of, the family. _ The city paper has already made its profit out of the contents of its columns before it goes to the coun­ try readers and -whatever additial money they get out of it is dear gain above the cost oi the white .paper. The widespread circulation of the socalled weekly has done more to create unrest On the farm the last twenty five years than any other one thing, and the farmer' does not seem to be ,aware of it. Where does tiie farmer boy get his densire to leave t-he.farm. Froin the detail exploits,of the city chap, and the usually deceptive stories a bout personal earnings in the city. Where does the innocent country girl get her-ambition to go to the, city and be some fellows’s steno­ grapher, or. get a place in the tele­ phone exchange Or a factory? From the pictures in the city Well dressed girls, and quite often tlier story of* some love affair with salacious sit­ uations so adbrfied as to make them really attractive to the -. unsophisti­ cated country girl. Most of: these city weeklies are not fit to come in Cheiu leave the trail of serpent wherever--they are read. - . . Think this over and see if it does not create a willingness on your part to pay five dollars for your home paper rather than do without it.— Humphrey's' Democrat. -■ Why Home Trade Falls (3ff. Homd trade always slumps when business is unbusinesslike. Most business men have - this fail­ ing—thev'are swept off their feet when business booms. We hit prosperity." Then the trou­ ble starts. -Everybody buys every­ thing in sight and" the merchants are caught in their own trap. They start advertising .to beat,the band. A riot of selling follows the merchants over­ advertise and oversell the market Demand for goods keeps op and then comes the trip to the bank to' bor­ row—for expansion. Then what? . Shortage and rising prices—a riot of buying, befq- e prices tilt.to the top and a wild spree of advertising, to keep the game' going. Suddenly the comes a halt. Buy­ ing slows up. and timid unbusiness­ like ^merchants curtail advertising dnd tbe buying baJt(contiues. .Then advertising is entirely stQpping and business becomes stagnant. Wen trade needs no stimulus , the merchants fiu.y advertising space like ■drunken-soldiers used, to buy /whis­ key, but when trade needs a strong push, they contract.

CS.—“Austin, third ■Texas city to be Imperiled by the !forces of nature In little more than a !week, has played an Important, but not 'generally known, part In American his­ tory,” says a bulletin from the Wash­ ington, D. C., headquarters of the Na­ tional Geographic society, In regard to the capital of Texas, the outskirts of which were struck by a cyclone. “When Washington, capital of the Wnlted States, was little more than-a pillage of mud streets between 1836 and 1846," says the bulletin, “Austin was a similar “world capital,’ the seat of government of the independent "Re­ public of Texas, which for ten years existed as the fellow nation of the United States. Ministers and special envoys were accredited to, the re­ public by the United States and half a dozen or more of the leading nations of Europe; and the forms and ameni­ ties of world .diplomacy were carried out punctiliously In the little capital. “Most of the legations have been tom down now to make way foi? mod­ ern buildings, but traditions still lin­ ger of the efforts of the FrenchySnd British ministers to/gain the greater influence with the young republic, and of the watchfulness- of the representa­ tive of the United States to see that no loopholes were created, to facili­ tate an attack on the Monrbe doctrine.

Selected Like District of Columbia. “Like the District of Columbia, Aus­ tin was located' by special commis­ sioners charged to select a creditable site for the future seat of the re­ public’s government. This was Im­ mediately after Independence had been won' from Mexico. They chose a tract on the Colorado river among gently rolling hills just below where the stream breaks from a range of low mountains.

As the marchers neared the famous old bank, police attempted to head thim off. The unemployed paraders broke up their marching forniktion and a free-for-all tight started. Mounted police drew their truncheons and wielded them on the rioters freely. A number of arrests were made, but the small number of police on the scene enabled many to escape who. might otherwise have been arrested. 1 As soon' as the disturbance broke out, an emergency call was sent out for all policemen on leave to assist in restoring order.

The conclusions reached by the com­ mission are as follows: 1. The need of more accurate and complete information regarding" own­ ership of bituminous mines, the true Investment therein and true profits arising therefrom. 2. The need of ascertaining prof­ its of selling companies owned by or affiliated with mining companies. 3. The need of establishing the coal Industry In public confidence and pro­ tecting it by devising means of federal supervision and publicity so as to avoid periods of excessively high prices and of severe depression.” A great deal of dtttculty was expert encsd by the commission, the report said, In determining the actual invest­ ments, upon which the profits could be Ilgnred on a percentage basis.

ORD TURNS DOWN RAIL MENTOVOTE ON STRKE Executive Counoil Of Brotherhood Ap . peals to Membership Ballots Fol- ’ lowing Board’s Decision Detroit.—A strike vfite was ordered by the executive council of the Unit ed B--‘herhood of Maintenance of Way' Employees and Railway Shop Labor­ ers here, In .answer to the wage slash made by the railway labor board. Declaring that a cut ot 13.2 per cent in their wages did not parallel a 3 per cent reduction in living costs, the council asked that the men, 40,0;000 In all, vote on a strike protest. The slash in wages made by the la­ bor-board at Chicago came as a com­ plete surprise to the council, which was in session here on routine business. Discussion ot the order resulted in an order by Edward F. Grable, president of the union, that the .decision for a strike vote be held over until the ar­ rival of the official notices of the re­ ductions. Grable, however, stated at the time he was confident that the strike vote would be ordered, terming the slash ’’both unjust and unfair.” Chicago.—A virtual ultimatum to the railroads of America, through ’the United States railroad labor board was presented by the Federation of Shop Crafts, representing 400,000 railway employees, In a request for a confer­ ence with the board, when the federal body will be ask to take immediate jurisdiction of all cases in which rail­ roads are alleged to be disobeying the board’s orders. If the board'declines, a strike bal­ lot will go out at .once to' shopmen all over the country. * With the further wage cut threat­ ened in a decision expected to be hand­ ed. down by the board, a third question will likely be placed on the ballot, according to B. M. Jewell, head of the shop crafts. Two questions, one oin al­ leged violations of board decisions by letting out shop work and the other on elimination ot time and a half for overtime, have already been authoriz­ ed for submission to the men. If another pay cut is authorized by the board,1 the pending ballot will un­ doubtedly be converted 'into a triple- barreled strike threat, Mr. Jewell de­ clared.

A preparation has been discovered in Europe which, it is claimed, makes wool immune from the ravages of moths. It is In the form of a powder, which, before it is applied, is mixed In water with a small quantity of sul­ phuric’ acid for all-wool goods, formic acid being used for half-wool. The wool itself is said not to be affected by the application, and only a few colors, very slightly. In case no alkalies are brought into contact with It the wool remains moth-proof when washed. Tests made "with two pieces of wool cloth exactly alike, In which moth eggs were placed, resulted, In the course of six months, In the entire dis­ appearance of the untreated fabric, whereas the wool which had been treated remained intact.

From the pocket flashlight operated by two or three dry cells of minute size the battery searcbligbt has. been steadily improved until remarkable results are obtained. Some time ago there was devised a searchlight of 500 feet range op­ erating on six or eight volts. More recently a battery searchlight has been introduced with a range of 2,000 feet up to half a mile, operating on six volts. Equipped with a seven and one-half inch adjustable focus, single shell reflector, on a recent photometer test one of these searchlights gave 453 candlepower. The combination of a nitrogen-filled tungsten lamp and a correctly de­ signed reflector has worked wonders for the battery-operated searchlight. —New York Herald.

I From the top of a bus Clay Lindsay looked down a canyon which angled across the great city like a river of light. He had come from one land of .gorges to another. In the walls of this one, thousands and tens of thousands of cliff-dwellers hid themselves during ;the day like animals of some queer !breed and poured out Into the canyon at sunset. Now the river In its bed Vas alive with a throbbing tide. Cross-currents of humanity flowed into 'lt from side ,streets and ebbed out of it into others. Streams of people were swept down, caught here and there In swirling ed-. dies. Taxis, private motors, and trol­ ley cars struggled In the raceway. ‘ AU this. Clay saw In a flash while his bus crossed' Broadway on its way to the Avenue. His eyes had become accustomed to .this brilliance In the weeks that had passed since' his descent, upon New York, but familiar­ ity had not yet dulled the wonder of It He had become a fast friend of Mlss Whltford. Together they had tramped through Central .park and motored up the Hudson In one of her father’s cars. They had explored each other's minds along with the country and qach had known the surprise and delight of dis­ coveries, of finding in the other a quality of freshness and candor. The bus jerked down Fifth avenue like a boat In heavy seas, pausing here and there at the curb to take on a passenger. While it was getting under way after one such stop, another downtown bus rolled past. Clay came to a sudden alert atten- ' Won. His eyes focused on a girl sit­ ting on a back seat In the pretty childish face he read a wistful help­ lessness, a pathetic hint of misery that called for sympathy. Arizona takes short cuts to its ends. Clay rose instantly,'put his foot on the railing, and leaped across to the top of the bus rolling parallel with the one he was on. In another second he had dropped into the seat beside the girl. “Glad to meet you again, MIss1 Kitty,” he said cheerfully. . “How the big town been using you?” The girl looked at him with a little gasp of surprise. “Mr. Lindsay!” Sud­ den tears filmed her eyes. She forgot that she had left him with the promise never again to speak to him. She.was In a far country, and he was a friend from home. > The conductor bustled down ‘the aisle. "Say, where do you get this movle-stuff? You can’t jump from the top of one bus to another. That ain’t • the system of transfers we use in this- ■town. You might ’a’ got killed.” “Oh, well, let’s not worry” about that now.” < "I'd ought to have you pulled. Three, years I’ve been on this run and^” • . “Nice run.

Is It panhin’. out pay igold?” Lindsay asked Kitty.; , '.' » , Bit Vy bit her story came out. -It was’a: common enough one. She had been flim-flammed out of her money by the alleged school of moving-picture acton, and the sharpers had decamped •with ''V' - Ta ;-'./ / As she looked at her recovered friend, Kitty gradually realized an out­ ward transformation In his appear­ ance. He was dressed quietly In clothes of perfect fit made for him by Colln Whitford’s tailor. From shoes to hat he was a New YoAer got up regardless of expense. But the warm smile, the strong, tanned face, the grip of the big brown hand that burled her small one-rall these were from her own West So too had been the non­ chalance with dfhlch he had stepped from the rail of one moving bus to that of the other, .just as though this were his usual method of trans­ fer. j "Fve1ROt a job at last,” she explained to him. “Fm working downtown in Greenwich Tillage, selling cigarettes. Fm Sylvia the Cigarette GM. At least that’s what they call me. I carry a tray of them evenings into the cafe.” “Greenwich. Village?” asked Clay. Kitty was not able to explain that the Village Is a state of mind which Is the habitat of long-haired men and short-haired women, the brains, of whom functioned In a way totally alien to all her methods of thought. “Can’t you come down tonight to The Purple Pup or The Sea Siren and see for yourself?" she proposed, and gave him directions for finding the classic re­ sorts. ■ ‘Tm dressed silly—In bare feet and sandals and what they call a smock. You won’t mind thafc will you?" -. “You'll look good to me, no matter what you wear, little Miss Colorado,” he told her with his warm, big broth­ er's smile., “You're good,” the girl said simply. “I knew that oh the train even when I—when I was mean to you.” There “Say, Where Do You Get This Movie Stunt Stuff?" came into her voice a small tremor of apprehension. “Fm afraid of this town'. It’s so—so kipda cruel. I've got no friends here.” He offered instant reassurance with a strong grip of his brown hand. “You’ve got one, little pardner. I’ll promise that one big husky will be on the job when you need him. Don’t you worry.” She gave him her shy eyes grate­ fully: There .was a mist of tears in them. ■ . “You’re good,” she ' said again naively. CHAPTER V Arizona Follows Its Lawless Impulse. The Sea Siren was already begin­ ning to' fill up when Clay descended three steps to a cellar, and was warily admitted. A near-Hawaiian orchestra was strumming out a dance tune and a few couples were on the floor.' Wait­ resses, got up as Loreleis, were mov­ ing about among the guests delivering orders for refreshments. y, - Thd westerner sat down In a Corner and looked about him. The walls were decorated^ with crude' purple crayons' f t underfed sirens. A statue of a nude woman distressed Clay. He did not mind .the missing clothes, bue she was so .dreadfully emaciated that- he thought If wise for her to cling to the yellow-and-red draped barber . pole that rose from the pedestal. On the -base, was the legend, “The Weeping Lady.” After he had tasted the Sea Siren fare the man from Arizona sus­ pected that both her grief and her .anaemia arose from the fact tnat she had been fed on It. A man In artist’s velveteens, minus a haircut, with a large, fat, pasty face sat at an adjoining table and dls-- coursed to- his friends.- Presently, dur­ ing an Intermission of , the music, he iTOse and took the rest of those present into his confidence. ' ’Bourgeois to the core,”, he an­ nounced, speaking! of the United States. “What are the Idols we wor­ ship?

But Isn’t it yore business when she murders American women- and children?” The pasty-faced man looked at him with thinly disguised contempt. “You wouldn’t understand if I explained.” “Mebbeso I !wouldn’t, but you take a whirl at it and I’ll listen high, wide, and handsome.” The man In velveteens unexpectedly found himself doing os he was told. There was a suggestion of compulsion about the gray-blue eyes fastened on his, Something In the clamp of the strong jaw that brought him up for a moment against stark reality. “The intelligentsia of, a country know that there can. be- no freedom until there is no law.- Every man’s duty is to disregard duty.' So, by far­ ing far on the wings of desire, he helps break down the slavery that binds us. Obey the Cosmic -Urge of your soul re­ gardless of Where It leads you, young man.” It was unfortunate for. the poet of Bohemia that at this precise moment Kitty Mason, dressed In sandals and a lilac-patterned smock, stood before him with a tray of - cigarettes asking for his trade.. The naive appeal In her soft eyes had Its weight with the poet What is the use of living In Bohemia -if one cannot be free to follow im­ pulse? He slipped an arm about the girl and kissed the crimson lips up­ turned to him. Kitty started back with a' little cry of distress, The' freedom taken by the near-poet was instantly avenged. 1 A Cosmic UTge beat In the veins- of the-savage from Arizona. He took the poet’s advice and followed -his Law­ less Impulse where It led. Across the table a long arm reached. Sinewy fingers closed upon the Jlowlng neck­ wear of the fat-faced orator and dragged him forward, leaving over­ turned glasses In the wake of his course. . ' ’ The man In velveteens met the eyes- of" the energetic, manhandler and quailed/ This brown-faced barbarian looked very much like business. “Don’t you touch, me I Don’t yotr date touch me !"the apostle of anarchy shrilled as the table crashed down.' !TH turn you over to the police!” Clay jerked him to his feet. Hart knuckles pressed cruelly'into the soft- throat, bf the Villager: “Git down on yore ham bones ana beg the Jady’s par­ don. Tell her you’re a yellow pup, but ■ ydu don’t reckon you’ll ever pull a bone like that again.” The companions of the poet rushed forward to protest at the manhandling of their leader.- Those In the rear jammed the front ones close to Clay, and his captive. The' cow puncher gently but strongly pushed tnem back. "Don’t get on the prod,” he advised In his genial drawl. “The poet he’s got an important engagement right now.” A kind of scuffle developed. The pro­ prietor Increased It by his hysterical efforts to prevent any trouble. Men joined themselves to the noisy group of which Clay was the smiling center. The excitement Increased. Distant corners of the room became the refuge of the women. Some one struck at the cow-puncher over the heads of those about him. The mass of closely packed human beings showed a convulsive ac­ tivity. It became suddenly the most popular indoor sport at the Sea Siren to slay this barbarian from the desert who had interfered with the amuse? meats of Bohemia, But Clay took a lot of slaying. In the rough-and-tumble life of the out­ door, West he had learned how to look out for Hs1 own hand. The copper hair ot his strorig lean head rose above the tangle of the melee like the bro- mldic Helm'et'of Navarre. Areckless light of mirth bubbled in his dare­ devil eyes. The very number of. the opponents who interfered with each other trying to get athlm was a guar­ antee of safety. The blows showered at . him lacked steam and were badly timed as to distance. ■ > • The pack rolled across the room, tipped over a table, and deluged an artist’and his affinity with hot choco­ late before they could escape from the avalanche. Choirs went oyer like ninepins.^Stands collapsed. Men grunt­ ed and shouted advice. Girls screamed. The Sea Siren was being wrecked by a cyclone from the bad lands. . Anns-threshed wildly to and fro.,The local point of their destination was the figure at the Center of the disturbance. Most of the blows-found other marks.- Four or five.imen could have demol­ ished Clay. Fifteen or twenty, found It a tough job because they .■Interfered with each other at every turn. 'They weye packed too close for hard hitting. Clay was not Aghtlng' but wrestling! He used his arms to push with rather than to strike blows, that counted..- ’ The ! Arizonan could not - afterward remember at mmctly what stage of the proceedings the face of Jerry Durand impinged Itself on. his consciousness.' Oztcel whei the swirl' o f the crowd flung Mm dose to tie door, he caught- a^Umjjie of eyed, turned W him with relentless malice. The gang, leader was taking no'part In the fight.- I The crowd parted. Out of-the-pack a pair of strong arms. and lean broad shoulders plowed a way for a some­ what, damaged face that still:carried a ' debonair smile. With pantherisb litheness the Arizonan ducked swinging blow. A moment, and ne was outside taking the'three steps that led to the street: Into his laboring lungs he drew de­ liciously-the soft breath of the night It cooled the-fever of bis hammered face, was like an Icy bath to his hot body. A little dizzy from1 the blows that had been rained on him, he stood for a moment uncertain which way to go. Then again he became aware of Durand. The man was hot alone. He had With him a hulking ruffian whose heavy, hunched . shoulders told of strength'. There was a hint of the gorilla'. In the way the loiig arms hung straight from the. shoulders as he leaned forward. Both of the men were watching the cow puncher as steadily as alley cats do a house finch. “Hr—1’s going to pop In about three seconds,” .announced Clay to himself. Silently, without lifting their eyes from their victim' for an- Instant, the two men moved apart to take him on both sides. He clung to the wall, forc­ ing a frontal attack. The laughter had gone out of his eyes now. They had hardened to pinpoints. This time it was no amateur horseplay. He was fighting for his life. No need to tell day Lindsay that the New York gangster meant to leave him as good as dead. The men rushed him. He fought back with clean, hard blows. Jerry bored In like a wild bull, day caught him off his balance, using a short arm jolt which had. back of it all that twenty-three years of clean outdoors Arizona could- give. The gangster hit the pavement hard. He got up furious and charged again. The ^ Arizonan, busy with the other man, tried to sidestep. An uppercut jarred him. to the heel. In that Instant of time before his knees began to sag beneath him, his brain flashed the news that Durand had struck him on- the chin with brass knuckles. He crumpledjip and.went down, StllFallve to what was going on, but ,unable to move In his own "defense. Weaaly he tried to protect his face and sides from the kicks of a heavy boot Then he floated balloon-like In space and vanished Into unconsciousness. - * - * * * Clay drifted back -to a . world In which the machinery of his body creaked. He turned his head, and a racking pain shot down his neck. He moved a leg, and every muscle In It ached. From head to foot he was sore. - 'Voices somewhere In space, detached from any personal ownership, floated vaguely to him. Presently these-, re­ solved themselves into worts and sen­ tences. ‘We’re not to make a . pinch, Tim. That’s the word he gave me before he left. This is wan av Jerry’s privatfe little wars and he don’t want a judge askin’ a lot of unnieessary questions,' y’ understand.” ' “Mother av Moses, if this he-man from H—l’s Hinges hadn’t the Iudc av the Irish, there’d he questions a-plenty asked. He’d be ready for the morgue this blissed minute. Jerry’s a murderin’ dlwle.. When I breeze In The Men' Rushed Him. Ke Fought B.aek .With Clean, Hard Blows, I; find him croakin’ this lad proper and he'acts like a crazy man'when I stand him and Gorilla Dave oft till yuh come a-runnin’. At that they may have given the bye more than.he can carry.' Maybe-it’ll be roses and a nice black carriage for him yet.” Cmy opened his eyes, flexed his arm muscles, and groaned. . He caressed tenderly his ' aching ribs. - “Some wreck,” he gasped weakly. “They didn't do a thing to-me—out- side of heatin’, me up—and stompjn’ on me—and runnln’ a-steam roller-over the dear departed.” - 'Whose fault will that he? Dont yuh know better Uiah to start a light with a rfgimentr demanded the ser­ geant of police severely. “That wasn't a Tight. It was a waltz;” The faint, unconquered smile of brown Arizona broke through the blood and bruises of the face. “The fight began when Jerry Durand and his friend rushed me—and it ended when Jerry landed on me with brass knucks. After that I was a football.” Xne words came In gasps, Blvery breath was drawn In pain. ‘ We’d ought to pinch yuh,” the ser­ geant said by .'way of reprimand. “Think yuh can come to New York and pull your small-town stuff on us? We’ll -show youse. If yuh wasn’t al­ falfa green Td give yuh a ride.” The officer dropped Mb grumbling com­ plaint to a whisper. “Whisht, ^bye. Take a straight tip from a -man. that knows. Beat It out of town. Get where the long arm of—of a friend of ours—can’t reach yuh. He’s a re- vlngeful lnemy If ever there, was wan.’' “You mean that Durand—” ‘Tm not Rnmln1 flames,” the officer Interrupted doggedly. ‘Tm tellin’ yuh somethin’ for your good. Take it or leave It”“Thanks, Tll leave It TMs is a free country, and no man llvin’ can drive me away,” answered Cfiay promptly. “Ouch, Tm sore.' Give me a lift, ser­ geant.” •They helped the cow puncher to Ms feet. He took a limping step or two. Every move was torture to Ms out- ’raged flesh. “Can you get me a taxi?" That Is, if you’re sure you don’t want me In yore calaboose,” the range-rlder said, leaning against the wall. “We’ll let yuh go tMs time.” “Much obligecP—to Mr. Jerry Du­ rand. Tell him for me that maybe I’ll meet up with him again some time— and hand Mm my thanks personal for tMs first-class wallopin'.” From the bruised, bleeding face there beamed again Uie smile indomitable, the grin still gay and winning. Physically he had been badly beaten, but in spirit he was still the man on horseback. Presently he eased himself into a taxi as comfortably as he could. “Home, James,” .he said jauntily, ‘Where?” asked the driver. “ The nearest hospital," explained Clay. ‘Tm goln’ to let the .doctors worry over me for a while. Much obliged to both of you gentlemen. I always did like the Irish. Friend Jerry is. an exception.” The officers watched the cab disap­ pear. The sergeant spoke the com­ ment that was In the mind of them both. “He's the best single-barreled sport that Iver I met in this man’s town. Not a whimper out of the guy and Iilin mauled to a pulp. Game as they come. Did youse see-that spark 0’ the divvle In Ms eye, and him not fit to crawl Into the cab? S’long, Tim. No report on this rough-house, mind yuh.’ ,“Sure, Mike.” CHAPTER Vl Beatrice Up Stage. If you vision day as a man of bat­ tles and violent death, you don’t see him as he saw himself. He was a peaceful citizen from the law-abiding West It was not until he had been flung into the wMrlpool of New York that violent and melodramatic mishaps befell tMs innocent This was the version of himself that he conceived to' be true and the one he tried to -interpret to Bee WMtford when he emerged from the hospital af­ ter two flays of seclusion and pre­ sented Mmself before her. It was characteristic of Beatricethat when she. looked at Ms battered face she asked no questions and made no exclamations. After the first startled glance one might have, thought from her expression that he habitually wore one black eye, one- swollen lip, one cauliflower' ear, and a strip of gauze across his cheek. The dark-lashed eyes lifted from him to take on a business-like directness. She rang for the man. “Have the runabout brought round at onee, Stevens. Fll drive myself,” she gave orders. With the light ease that looked silk­ en strong she swept the car into the para. Neither she nor Clay talked. Both of them knew that an explana­ tion of his appearance was due her and in the meantime neither cared to fence with small talk. : She drew up to look at some pond lilies, and they talked about them for a moment, after which her direct eyes questioned him frankly. He painted with a light brush the picture of Ms adventure into Bohemia. The details he filled in whimsically, in the picturesque phraseology of the WestJUp stage on Ms canvas was the figure of the poet in velveteens. That Son of the Stars he did full justice. Jerry- Durand and Kitty Mason were accessories sketched casually. ‘T gather that Mr. Lindsay .of Ari­ zona'was among those present,” Be­ atrice §aid, smiling. “I whs gtrin’ the dance,” he agreed, and his gay eyes, met hers. Since -slie was a woman, one'phase of Ms story needed expansion for Miss Whltford. She! made her comment carelessly while she adjusted the mile­ age on the speedometer. “Queer you happened to meet some­ one you knew down there. You said you knew the girl,.didn’t you?” “We were on the-same train out of Denver. I got acquainted with her.” Miss Whltford asked no more ques­ tions. But Cfiay could not quite let the matter stand so. He wanted her to justify him in her mind for what he bad done. Before he knew it he had told her the story of Kitty Mason and Durandv . - ' ■ *T couldn’t- let him hypnotize that “I suppose not.” Her whole raw gan to bubble with laughter in way he liked so well. “But you-u busy knight errant if you Nmdert,1 to right the wrongs of every qri meet In New York. Don't you Nhi possible that you rescued her om”,. job?” 014 The young man nodded his hem - fully. “That’s exactly what I After all her trouble gettln’ one r thrown her out again. Fm a «1 enough fathead." *■ “You’ve been down to find out?’ q asked with a sidelong tilt of her Q0S “Yes. I went down this with Tim Muldoon. He’s a polleem I met down there. Miss Kitty has!* been seen since that night. We out to the Pirate’s Den, the rum! Pup, Grace Godwin’s Garret, nndan the places where she used to sell ciC ettes. None of them have seen anr thing of her.” y" - “So that really your champlonshin hasn’t been so great a help to her Bfrt- all, has it?” “No.” “And I suppose it ruined the bust- ness of the man that owns the Sea Siren.” “I don’t reckon so. Fve settle! far the furniture. And MuhIorai says when it gets goin’ again the Sea Siren “But You’ll Be a Busy Knight Errant If You Undertake to Right the Wrongs of Every Girl You Meet in New York." will do a big business on account of the fracas. It’s Kitty I’m worried about.”' “I wouldn’t worry about her if I were you. She’ll land on her feet," the girl said lightly. Her voice had not lost its sweet cadences, but Cla^- sensed In it some­ thing that was almost a touch of cod contempt. He felt vaguely that he must have blundered In describing Kitty. Evidently Miss AYliitford did not see her quite as she was. The young woman pressed the start­ er button. “We must be going home. I have an engagement to go riding with Mr.Bromfield.” The man beside the girl kept his smile working and concealed the little stab of jealousy that dirked him. Colin YVMtford had confided to Lind­ say that his daughter was practically engaged to Clarendon Bromfield and that he did not like the man. Tfc4 range-rider did not like him either, bet he tried loyally to kill his distrust of the clubman. If Beatrice loved him there must be good in the fellow. Oisy meant to be a good loser anyhow. There had been moments when the rahge-rider's heart had quickened with a wild, insurgent hope. One of these had been on a morning when they were riding in the park, knee to kuee. w the dawn of a new clean world. It bed come to him with a sudden cl.-mi- r "- the blood that in the eternal rig:.::.es» of things such mornings ought to theirs till the youth In them "■ quenched in sober age. He had lo-'-i?- into the eyes of this slim young P'-*"™ and he had throbbed to the cenr.ir.:.- that she too In that moment en­ tangled glances knew a sweet ct«-“- sion of the blood. In her cheeks th--s had been a quick flame of flying Their talk had fallen from them. they had ridden in a shy, exquisite ?-- Ience from wMch she had escapes putting her horse to a canter. But In the sober sense of sanity Off knew that this wonderful thing '-133 not going to happen to him. He -ms not going to be given her happ’.ne^' 0 hold in the hollow of his hand, nee YVMtford was a modern young wrr- - practical-minded, with a prot-ec of the values that the world e?.e? _ Clarendon Bromfield was a ca.- - - In New York.

G etting a Start. We are now in' the commence­ ment season. The air is filled with voice of those who would advise the new crop of young men and women as to how to behave themselves. It is indeed a> task. Colleges and schools serve somehow to detach the average young man or woman They set their sights pretty high from tie commencement ] I itform. WLiIe they are setting about to get a start tbeir less fortunate brothers atid sisters have already started—they are at work and on the way. W hit the college graduates ought to re­ member is that education is not cal­ culated to give them a better start, it is is calculated to enable them to do. better with their start. They1 should not seek superior positions; they should seek to do superior work in the low position.. A col­ lege graduate ought to be willing to run a plow, clerk in a store, be a carpenter, run a'-shoe shop—and he ought to be able to do better than Ithe.young man who did not go to College. The world refuses to give a superiour. start to the college man. But if his college education is worth anything he should be able to start at the botton and rise more rapidly by reason of his education. This dodging about to find a ‘ 'posittion,” rather than stepping right into hard work wherever one finds it, is en­ tirely tinwor thy of the name of edu­ cation.. - It.has made an underling of many, a man with an A.

Enforcing The Law. ’ Every day or two, officers go out and capture liquor. Some times they get the still, and some times the blockaders. Not that th.-y want to get people into trouble. They go because this violation of law has been reported to them, and they must do their duty. Neigh- b>rs and friends don’t want to re­ port them. But have to do it ia self-defense. Do it to get rid of a nuisance, or to save a son, husband or friend. And the good people don’t rejoice to see people thus pur- isbel; they rather see them quit it and obey the law. And good Christ­ ians pray that they be converted in­ to: the way of righ.eousness.— Hickory Mercury. Iredell Active. Salisbury Post. Iredell county is active in road building and the commissioners have agreed to build a road to the Rowan county line, an 18-foot road by way of Elmwood to connect with Rowan. . Chairman Rufty of the Rowan board is deeply interested in this road because it is undoubtedly the most important piece of'road he has on hands just now. It is not only a very important road for Sal­ isbury and Rowan county, but it is a Very necessary link in the State highway which will carry heavy fra-el from the east to the Western Section. The proposition which the county commissioners are working on to build an underpass leading olit of Salisbury to take care of exit of the Statesville and Mocksville roads is a very vital consideration inand tackle the first job in sight.

Gifford Pinchot won the primary nominatipn for Governor Pennsyl-, vania not because the Republican party is reactionary, but because'it is progressive. Beveridge was no­ minated for Senator in Indiana for the same reason. z- Pinchot and Beveridge were con­ spicuous leaders of the progressive movement in 1912. Both 'of them since have learned that the cause of progress in this country can be bet­ ter served by the Republican party than by any third party. That is why they made their fight within the party. Their victories justify their judgment. From the beginning his political career Pinchot believed in govern^ meat for all the people. In office under Theodore Roosevelt he did high service to the country {brough the extension Of the forest reserve and its preservation from private en­ croachment. He has enterened with enthusiasm every monyement to bring the government closer to the people and to insure to them a voice in it. He is not an orator or a whirl­ wind campaigner. .,He has little of the dynamic force of his former leader. But he. has grown in the esteem of the people because of his sincerity and his willingness to toil untiringly for the public gocd. His nomination is proof that pro: greaive principles still thrive lustily in the Republican party. Every such victory adds to the conviction that the Repubhcaus welcome pro- gressive ideas and progressive leadr ers. and that they will- go to the polls in November as the party of progress.—Uuiou Republican. A R are Case Indeed. “ My children have all tbe money they will ever need:.- More money would just pnt them mereasingly in the limelignt and that is just the thing I want most of all to avoid ” Tnis is the comment of Major French British citizen, with reference to the ruling of a New York referee that the sum of a million and a third dol­ lars from the estate of jabez Bost- wick should go to Wake Forest Col­ lege. North Carolina, rather than to the grandchildren of Major French. And there is evidence, too, that the remarks was sincere, seeing that do effort seems to have been made to qualify the French heirs for the Bost- wick legacv. This is not entirely new under the sun but it is exceed­ ingly rare. When money left to heirs under certain conditions is a- warded to an institution on the grout d that the heirs have not quali­ fied under tbe conditions of the will is all to pass without% protest; and not only that, but the remark is made that the folks supposed to be interrated already have all the money they need—well, it is a trifle hare to take that in. In fact it was not sup­ posed that anvbody ever had all .the money they thought they might need —at least not to the extent of allow­ ing a worth-while sum to pass that they might pick up. — Statesville Daily.

It seems that the question as to how the lady lost her head is im portant In archeologic circles.

RUST SPORE BEIN6 SOUGHT Annual Loss in Wheat Alone Due to Stem Rust Is Estimated at 64,000,- 000 Bushels—Mexico Believed to Be Source of Spore. . San Antonio,..TeSL—One of the most remarkable surveys ever made under the direction of the United States De­ partm ent .of Agriculture is now in progress In Texas. It is that of search­ ing the air for the spore that causes rust on growing wheat and oats. It is estimated that the annual loss Field A rtillery Back From G erm any Here are some of the troops o£ the first division of ,the Sixth held artil­ lery arriving at New fo rk from Germany on the transport Cambrai. In­ serted Is a portrait of Lleuteuant Colonel Brevans, their commanUer. in wheat alone due to stem rust is ap­ proximately 64,000.000 bushels. It is the theory of some agricultural scien­ tists that the source of the spore which causes this enormous loss Is In Mexico or perhaps South America anil that It drifts through the air to the w heat fields of Texas. Oklahoma, Kansas and other states. Airplane Search in Progress, During the last two weeks an air­ plane search for the spores has been made at high altitudes above San An­ tonio. For this purpose an airplane from Kelly field is used, with Lieut. T. R. Booker as pilot and W allace But­ ler as scientist. Armed with a “spore trap” Mr. But­ ler has made six exposure? a t varying altitudes on each aerial journey. These plates have been sent to the office of cereal investigation for examina­ tion. Thus far no reports have been given out of the findings. Anyone who walks through an oat field in this part of the state now will come out with his shoes covered with a yellowish powder which has brushed off from the innumerable little yellow leaves. This powder any farm er will tell one is rust, in this case the leaf rust of oats. Every little yellow spot on the leaf is a pustule of IeaZ rust, each pustule being made up of from one to several thousand tiny seed bodies or spores which are pushed up through the epidermis of the leaf from a sort of root structure or m ass of threads which are growing within the leaf. Tliese threads are .very minute and can be seen only by the aid of the microscope. The spores which are borne in such m ultitudes on the ends of little branches from these threads are also microscopic in size. The pow­ der on the shoes after a trip through the oat field consists of millions of these spores. Dew Helps; When one of these spores falls on a drop of dew or other moisture on a leaf of oats it soon sends out a little root-like projection which, curling around this way and that, finds its way into the breathing pore or open­ ing in the epidermis of the leaf and so gets into the leaf tissues. In due tim e it becomes the mass of threads which again send up th ; m ass of spores, and so the process is repeated with favorable w eather conditions about every two weeks. THIS CURFEW HITS PA R EN TS ALSO H eld G uilty W ith C hildren in V iolation of O rdinance. City "Dads" of South Dakota City Believe Parent* Are Largely to Blaine . for Children Running About Streets at Night. Sioux Falla, S. D.—The d ty of Lem­ mon, S. D., has one of the most unique curfew ordinances Ui/ existence any­ where In' tie TJnlted States. The par­ ents are held equally guilty with the children for violations of the curfew. The ordinance provides th a t hoys and girls under seventeen years of age must, be off the streets ntifl at home 'after 9 :30 o’clock each evening. If they are on the streets or other public places^ after, tliit hour' they must be aeeompSnied by their parents or some authorized guardian. The d ty “Dads" believe that par­ ents are largely to blame for. their children running about the streets at unseemly hours of the night, and therefore placed a provision In the ordinance making the parents respon­ sible with the children for violations of the provisions of the ordinance. Some of the parents who have been In the habit of perm itting their chil­ dren to; remain away from home until quite late at night have regarded the ordinance as of no Interest to them, and as a result when their children were found ' running at * large after 9:30 o’clock at night the parents themselves were required to appear In court and explain why their chil­ dren were not req\ilred by the par­ ents to be home by 9:30 o’clock. At one time several parents were In court on the charge or permitting their children to violate the curfew ordinance, and In jpaeh case a small fine was lm posedf with the admoni­ tion that further violations by their children would subject them to heavier fines. The city authorities now have given notice that the curfew ordinance means just what it says and that it will continue to be strictly enforced, regardless of whose children may be affected and that neglectful parents will he taken into coijrt no m atter how prominent they may be In the community. 4 - ALBANIA HAS NO PU BLIC DEBT Occupies Unique Position Among Eu­ ropean Nations—Monetary Sy*. tern Based on Gold Deposits. ~ Genoa.—Happy Albania is the term which has been applied to that coun­ try. for It U stated, that It occupies the unique position among European nations of being the only country which has no national debt and has a gold monetary system.

The w ords came from Dean W est, who used them in mention of the President’s stand against the veterans’ bonus, and his votes for anti-strike laws as a senator, as he recited the reasons-w hich induced Princeton uni­ versity to give the President an hon­ orary degree as doctor of laws. Twice the stim ulus Cf an intent audience caused President H arding to break away from prepared m anuscript in speech-making.. Before the Princeton student body, stirred evidently by the high praise of the citation of himself, he almost disregarded preparations to. lay down some standards of valuation of men. “I care not w hat position I may mo­ m entarily be in,” he • excalimed, “you can m easure his standard of useful­ ness to America by the service he ren­ ders the community in which he re- sides . ’Less than a century and a half has this republic endured. The founding fathers who gave us America no more dream ed of w hat 125 years would-bring them than we today can dream of the possibilities of the-future. W hen I realize w hat has happened in that tim e I dare not lift the cup of optimism to m y lips. There are such lim itless possibilities; we have seen such incomparable contributions to m ankind's progress In our generation, we can little imagine w hat tim e will bring. “Doctor ——” the President turned to Dean W est and President Hibben of Princeton— “I thank you for your earnest wishes. I care not who one is, if he can only expend his power in righteousness, he shall not have lived in vain. W e can only ask God to let us m ake our way in righteousness, and if, in that making, we can m ake our way religions, we’ll be a little better for th a t” Might as Well be Considered. Now as in July or August, Says Senator Oscar Underwood.-. ■ W ashington. — The soldiers’ bonds bill was formally presented to the sen­ ate' after a first effort by Chairman. McCumber of the flanance' committee to report it at the opening session-had been blocked by-Senator.W illiam s, democrat, Mississippi. Senator W tlliams was absent from the senate when Senator McCnmber presented the measure, tor the second time, but came into the cham ber a few m inutes afterw ard. T he bill automatically w ent to the senate calendar. In attem pting to offer the bill soon after the senate met, Senator Mc- Cumber said that “in the very near future I hope to be able to lay aside the tariff bill for a day or so for the 'purpose ot considering and passing, if possible, the compensation bill.” Senator Underwood, of Alabama, the democratic leader, said if it w as pro­ posed to pass the bill a t this session, it m ight as well be considered now as in July or August. “I should be -very glad,” he added, 'if the bill w ent over until after the elections so th at the Am erica^ people m ight have an opoprtunity to voice their sentim ent on the subject" Senator Underwood said he felt 'that the bonus bill, if passed," will not only work -“injury to the American people, but vWill,in the-end work in­ jury to the m en whom it proposes to help.” He estim ated the bill .would cost anywhere from $4,000,000,030 to $7,- 000,000,000, and said it was drawn in such a way that it would have to be paid for In the fnture and thus would become a. burden upon the form er sol­ diers themselves. Inform al canvasses of each side have indicated t that the bonus legis- ation has a substantial m ajority In the senate, but w hether the amended house bill will be approved is prob*. lematical. . In any event a long fight on the m easure is expected. Rotarians Adjourn Convention. Los Angeles.—Raymond M.

The crop made fair to very good progress in Texas: The nights were somewhat too cool in Arkansas, but very good ad­ vance was reported In general from that state, although !conditions va­ ried greatly. ’“The progress of the crop was very good in Tennessee and fairly good in the Carollnas, although field work was delayed in the latter area by fre­ quent rainfall. “F air progress was reported also from the southern division ot Geor­ gia, although the week was generally unfavorable in that state on account of excessive, rainfall; the fields were boggy, the land washed, and farm work impossible. “Conditions were also unfavorable in Alabama, M ississippi and Okla­ homa, where it was too cool and wet and cotton made poor progress in that state. “The condition and stand in Okla­ homa are very uneven, ranging from very poor to very good, while the crop is generally late and mostly needs cul­ tivation. Some ,planting was done in the Mississippi delta where previous­ ly flooded. W eevil activity is report­ ed. Irom many sections and rainfall was heavy in man* localities in Sou­ thern North Carolina*. Huge Crops of Food Products. W ashington.—Vegetables grown In the United States in 1921 had an es­ tim ated value pf $1,104,000,000, accord­ ing to the Departm ent of Agriculture. This was 15.7 per cent of the total value of all crops. The products of m arket gardens, which may or may not have been productive enough to be farm s within the census definition,- are not included In these estim ates. The potato crop had a farm value Cf $385,000,000, and the sweet potato, $87,000,000. Together, these two crops comprised 43 per cent of the value of all vegetables in 1921. The tomato .crop of 1921 had a farm value of $60,- 000,000; the cantaloupe crop was worth $17,000,000; the cucumber, watermelon and cabbage crops each had a value of about $15,000,000. Farm gardens are a new item in'the vegetable list and had an estim ated value of ,$405,000,000. The value of the vegetable crop In relation to prom inent single crops and to groups has some- striking ratios for 1921, a-year when values of the large crops were low, 'the departm ent’ pointed out. The total value of the vegetable crop for 1921 was 85 pei cent of the value of the great corn i-.rop; it was alm ost as large as the value'of the hay and forage crops; it was nearly one-half as large as the value of the daipy products, it was considerably larger than the. value of all poultry products; 48 per cent larger than the value of the cotton crop, and 50 per cent larger than the value of the w inter and spring wheat crops.

Cincinnati, O.—Railroad wages un­ der the new railroad labor board or­ ders for seven of the larger groups of the country’s railway workers, soon will be at a level which does not measure up to the American standard of living and which will make vigorous protest necessary, ac­ cording to B. M. Jewel], head of the railway employes' departm ent of the American Federation ot Labor, In ex­ plaining the quick strike vote action of the conference of railway union heads. In less than two hours’ time, heads of eleven railroad unions arrived at an understanding whereby each or­ ganization will take a strike vote im­ mediately on the issue of wage re­ duction orders from the labor board tor its membership. The votes will be returnable in 30 days and the strike vote for the six shop crafts, sent out by President Jewell’s orders, will be in his office In Chicago by June 30. The strike vote decided on will af­ fect about 1,200,000 of the, country’s railway employes—all except the train service m en whose wages are not in dispute before the board. Al­ though wage cuts have not been an­ nounced for any classes but the shop crafts and m aintenance ot way, pend­ ing decisions are expected to add five other classes of labor to the general slash.

The'girl leaves the car and Is attacked by a wild steer. A masterpiece of, riding on the part of one of - the cowboys saves her life. Then the story begiris: Clay Lindsay, rangc- rlder on an Arizona ranch, a n -' nounces his intention to visit, the "big town,” New York. On the train Lindsay becomes Interested In a young woman, Kitty Mason, on her way to New York to become a motlon-plcture actreBS. She is marked as fair prey by a fellow traveler, Jerry Durand, gang politi­cian and ex-prize fighter. Perceiving his intentions, Lindsay provokes a7, quarrel and throws Durand from the train.

Lindsay's ac­ quaintance with Beatrice WhItford2 ripens. I CHAPTER Vl—Continued. But though Clarendon Bromfidd had no doubt of the issue of his suit, the friendship of Beatrice for this fel­ low from Arizona stabbed his vanity. It hurt his class pride and his personal self-esteem that she should take pleas­ ure in the man’s society. Bee never had been well-broken to harness. .He set his thtn lips tight and resolved that he would stand no nonsense of this sort after they wlere married. If she wanted ,to flirt it would have to be with some one in their own set. I Beatrice could not understand her­ self.- She knew that she was behav­ ing rather Indiscreetly, though she did not fathom the cause of the restless- uess that drove her to Clay Lindsay. The truth is that she was longing for an-escape from the empty life she was leading, had been seeking one for years without knowing it. Surely this round of social frivolities, the, chatter of these silly women ana smug tailor- made men, could not be all there was to life. She must have been made for something better than that. And when she -was with Olay she knew she had been. He gave her a vision of life through eyes that had known open, wide spaces, clean, whole­ some, and sun-kissed. He stood on his own feet and did his own thinking. Simply, with both hands, he took hold of problems and examined them stripped of all trimmings. The man was elemental, but he was keen and broad-gauged. It amazed her .one day to learn that he had read. William Jam es and understood his philosophy much better than she did. There was In her mind no intention whatever of letting herself do . any­ thing so foolish as to marry him. But there were moments when the thought of it had a dreadful fascination for her. She did not invite such thoughts to remain with her. J’or she. meant to accept Clarendon Bromfield in.her own good time and make her social, position in' New York ■ absolutely secure. She had been in the fringes too long not td appreciate a chance to get into the sociafHoly of Holies. \ . •, * • . ' * • A bow-legged little man in a cheap, Crinkled suit with % silk kerchief knotted loosely round his neck stopped in front of a window where a girl was selling stampg. . • 1 - "I wantta see the postmaster.”; “Coirld’y’right. Takel’vatorthir’door- left,” she said, Just as though it were two words. ; At that the freckled-face little fellow openied wider his skim-milk eyes and his weak mouth. “Come again, ma’am, .please." ‘,‘Corrid’y’right Takel’vatorthir’door- Ieft,“ she repeated. “Next.” The inquirer knew as much as he did before, but he lacked the courage to ask for an English ,translation. He shuffled away from - the window and wandered "helplessly, - swept up., by the •tide-Tof irtirrylbg people thfit flowed contiguously into the building and' ebbed out of It; - From , this he was tossed - into ■ a backwater ’that brought him ; to ' another window. - ; "I wantta see the postmaster of this burg,” he announced . again " with a plaintive whine. "W hat about?” asked the man back of the grating. “Important business, amigo. Where’s h eat?” . The man directed him to a door upon which was printed the legend, "Super­ intendent of-Complaints.” • "W eli/sir! W hat can I do for you?” the man behind the big desk snapped. “I wantta see the postmaster.” , “What about?” ^ "I got important business with him.**' “Who are you?” uMep-Fm JcAnnie Green of the B-in- a-Box ranch. I just d rapped In from Arizona and I wantta see the postmas­ ter.” . "Suppose you' tell your troubles to me.” Johnnie changed his weight to the other foot “No, suh, I allow to see the postmaster blufseif personal.” “He’s busy,” explained the official. ‘.‘H e can’t possibly see anybody with­ out kncwlng.his business.” “That’s all right. Tve lost my pal. I w antta see—” f The superintendent of complaints cut into his parrot-like repetition. “Yes, you mentioned that. .. But the postmaster doesn’t know where he is, does he?” “H e might tell me where his mail goes, as the old sayin’ is.” “When did you lose your friend?” “I ain’t heard from him since he come to New York. So bein’ a» I got a' cbanct to go from Tucson with a Jackpot trainload of cows to Denver, I kinda -made- up my mind to come on here the rest of the way and look him up. I’m afraid some one’s done him dirt.” “Do you know where he’s staying?” “No, suh, I don’t ” The superintendent of complaints tapped with his fingers on the desk. Then he smiled. Tbe postmaster was fond of a joke. . Why not let this odd little freak from "the W est have an in­ terview with him? Twenty minutes later Johnnie was telling his story to the postm aster of the city of New York. He had written three times to Clay Lindsay and had received no answer. So he had come to look for him. “Is your friend like you?” asked the- postmaster, interested, in spite, of him­ self. “No- suh.” Johnnie, alias the R unt began to beam. “He’s a sure-enough go-getter, Clay is, every jump of the road. I’d follow his dust any day of the week. He’s the Iiyest proposition that ever come- out of Graham county. You , can ce’tainly gamble on that.” Tiie postmaster touched" a button. A clerk'appeared,- received orders, and disappeared. _ Tne clerk presently returned with three letters addressed to Clay Lind­ say, General Delivery, New York. The postmaster handed them to the little cow puncher. ■Evidently he never called for them,” he said. Johnnie’s chin fell. H^ looked a pic­ ture of helpless woe. "IViey’re the let­ ters I set down an’ wrote him mJsOVn se’l. Something has sur* happened to that boy, looks like,” ho, bemoaned. ‘‘We’ll try police headquarters. May­ be we can get a line Ois your friend,” the postmaster said, reaching for the telephone. “Bui you must remember New Io rk is a big place. It’s not like your Arizona ranch. The city has nearlj elgnt million inhabitants. You’ll understand that when one man gets lost It isn’t always possible to find him.” “Why not? We got some steers down in my country—about as many as you got men In this here to*n of youm. Tha’s what we ride the rang£ for, so’s not to lose ’em. We’ve traced a B-in-a- Box steer clear xrom Tucson to Den- "Go to PoHce Headquarters, Center , . Street, arid Take This .Note to Capt.

Ain't it their business to rustle up strays?” “The. police,’.’ said the postmaster, amused. "That is part of their busi­ ness. We’ll pass the buck. to them, anyhow.” Aftw> some delay and repeated ex­ planations of who he was, the post­ m aster got a t the other p d o f the wire bis friend the - commissioner. Their conversation was brief. When the post­ m aster hung up he rang for a stenog­ rapher and dictated a letter of intro­ duction. This .he .handed to Johnnie, with explicit instruction*. ^ - "Go to police - bm hgotitenii Center street, and take this note - to Capt. Luke Byrne. H ell see that the m atter is investigated for you. Do you know the way to police headquarters?” “I reckon I can find i t Is it fur?” The man from Arizona looked down at the htgh-heeled boots In which his tortured feet - had clumped over the pavements of the metropolis all morn­ ing. "I’ll send you in a taxi.” The post­ m aster was thinking that thts babe In the woods of civilization never would be able to find his way alone. - As the driver swept the car in and out among the -traffic of the narrow streets Johnnie, dung to the top of the door fearfully. Every moment he expected a smash. His heart was In his -throat. The hurricane deck of a bronco had no terrors for him, but this w ild' charge through the humming trenches shook his nerve. "I come mighty nigh askin’ you would you just as lief drive slower,” he said with a grin to the chauffeur as he descended to the safety of uie side­ walk. “I ain’t awful hardy, an’ I sure was plumb scared.” A sergeant took Johnnie in tow and delivered him at length .to the office waiting-room of Captain Andersoii, head of the bureau of missing persons. The ftftnt, surveying the numbers In the waiting-room and those passing In and out, was ready to revise his opin­ ion about the possible difficulty of the job. He judged that half the popula­ tion of New York m ust be missing. Alter a time the captain’s secretary notified Johnny that it was his turn. As soon as he was admitted the punch­ er began his little piece without wait­ ing for any preliminaries. “Say, captain, I want you to find my friend Clay Lindsay. He— ” “Just a moment,” interrupted the captain. “Who are you? Don’t think I got your .name.” Y Johnnie remembered the note of in­ troduction and his name at the same time. H e gave both to the big man who spent "his busy days and often part of the nights looking for the lost, strayed, and stolen among New York's millions. The captain’s eyes swept over "the note. "Sit down, Mr. Green* and let's get at your trouble. Thisi UotVrsays that you’re looking for a man named Clay Lindsay who came to New York several months ago. Have you or has anybody else heard from him in that tim er’ I “We got a letter right pfter he got here* He ain’t w rit since.” “J'erhaps he’s " dead. We’d better look up the morgue records.” "Morgue!” The Sunt grew excited instantly. “That place where you keep folks that get drowned or bumped off? Say, captain. I’m here to tell you Clay was the livest man In Arizona,'which Is the same as sayin’ anywheres. Cowpunchers don’t take naturally to morgues. No, sir. Clay ain’t in no morgue. Like as not he’s helped fill this yere morgue if any crooks tried their rough stuff’ on -him. Don’t get me wrong, Cap. Clay Is the squarest he-man ever God made. AU I’m sayin’ is—” . The captain Interrupted. He asked sharp, incisive questions and got "busy. Presently he reacted for a ’phone, got in touch with a sergeant at the police desk in the upper corridor, and sent an attendant with Johnnie to the po­ lice department. The Irish sympathies of the ser­ geant were aroused by the. naive hon­ esty of the little man. H e sent for another sergeant, had card records, brought, consulted a couple of patrol­ men, and then turned to Johnnie. "We’ve met your friend all right,” he said with a grin. “He’s wan heiuva lad. Fits the description to a T. There can’t be but one like him here.” And he went on to tfjll the story of the adventure of the janitor and the hose. The washed-out eyes of the punch­ er. lit up. “That’s him. That’s sure him. Tell me where he’s at?” “We don’t know. We can show you tie place where he tied the janitor, but that’s th e best -we can do.” The captain hesitated. “If you find him, give him a straight tip from me. Tell "him to buy a ticket for Arizona and take the train for home. This town" is no healthy place for him. Your friend has made an enemy—a powerful one. He’ll -understand If you tell him.” “Who Is this here enemy?” “Never mind. He hit- up too'fast a pace.” “You can’t.tell me. a thing against Clay—not a thing,” protested Johnnie hotly. “He’ll sure. do to take, along, Clay will. There can’t any guy knock him to me, if he does wear a uniform.” •Tm not saying, a thing against him,’'-replied the officer impatiently. ‘Tm giving-him a friendly tip to beat it, if you see him. Now Ijm going to send you uptown with a plaln-clothes m an.,- He’ll show you where your friend made his New York debut That’s all we can do for you.” An hour later the little cowpuncher was gaiiog wistfully a t the hltching- post H is face was twisted pathet­ ically to a q u e stlo n m a rk .lt was as though he thought he -could conjure from the post the secret of Clay’s dis­ appearance. "Where had he gone from here? And where was he now? In the courM ot fbe n u t two'days -the Bunt came back t& Ifiat post many times as the starting-pcint for weary, high-heelel tram ps tirough streets within a circuit of a mile. He could not have explained why he did so. Per­ haps it was because this was the only spot in the city that held for him any tangible relationship to Clay. Some one claimed to, have seen him vanish into one of these houses. Perhaps he might come back again. It w a sa v e ry tenuous hope, but it was the only one Johnnie had. H e clumped over , the pavemepts till his feet ached In pro­ test Hte patience w as rewarded. On the second day, while he was gazing blank­ ly a t the post a groom brought two horses to the curb In front of the house opposite. One of the horses had a real cowboy’s saddle. Johnnie’s ejfts gleamed. This was like a breath of honest-to-God Arizona. The door opened, and out of it came a man ahd a slim young woman. Both of them were dressed for riding, she In the latest togs of the town, he In a well- cut sack suit and high tan boots. Johnnie threw up his hat and gave a. yell. “ You blamed old hom-toad! Might ’a* knowed you was all right! Pt--, H<wf- “Hi Yi YiIt Doggone Yore Old Hide, If It Ain’t You Big ac Coffee, Clay!” Might 'a* knowed you wouldn’t bite off more’n you could chew! Oh, you Arizona!” Clay gave one surprised look—and m et him in the middle of the street. The little cowpuncher did a w ar dance of joy while he d u n g to his friend’s hand. Tears brimmed into his faded eyes. “Hi yi y i! Doggone yor# old hide, if it ain’t you big as coffee. Clay. Thinks I to myse’f, who is that pilgrim? And, by gum, it's old h—l-a-mlle jes’ a-hlttin’ his heels. W here you been a t you old skeezicks?” “How are you, Johnnie? And w hat are you doin’ here?” “You didn’t answer my letters, so I come to see if you was all right” “You old scalawag. Yon came to paint the town red.” Johnnie, highly delighted a t /th is charge, protested. “Honest I didn’t. Clay. I wasn’t feelln’ so tumble peart. Seemed Uke the boys picked on me after you left. So I jes’ up and come.” If Clay was not delighted to have his little Fldus Achates on his hands he gave no sign of it. H e led him across the road and introduced him. to Miss Whitford. Clay blessed her for her kindness to ti^is squat, snub-nosed adherent of his whose lonely heart had driven him two thousand miles to find his friend. H er hand went out instantly. A smile softened her eyes and dimpled her cheeks. “I’m very glad to m eet'any friend of Mr. Lindsay. Father and I will want to hear all about Arizona after you two have had. your visit o u t We’ll postpone the ride till this afternoon. That will be better, I think.” Clay agreed. W ith a cool little nod that included them both, she turned and ran lightly up the steps into the house. ■ “Some sure-enough queen,” mur­ mured Johnnie In naive admiration, staring after her with open mouth. / d a y smiled. He had an opinion of his own on that point CHAPTER Vll Johnnie .Green—Mateh-Maker. Johnnie Green gave an upward jerk to the frying-pan and caught the flap­ jack as it descended. "Fust and last call for breakfast In the dinlng-cyar. Come and get it, old- timer,” he sang out to Clay. That y<rang m an emerged from his bedroom glowing. He was one or two shades of tan lighter than when he had reached the city, but the paint of Arizona's untempered sun still distin­ guished him from the native-born, if there are any such among the inhabi­ tants of upper New York. "You’re one sure-enough cook,” he drawled^ to his satellite. “Best flap­ jacks ever made in this town.” The Bunt beamed all over, if had really been a puppy he would have waggedJils tail; Since he couldn’t do that he took It out In grinning. Any word of praise from Clay made the world a sunshiny one for him. The two men were baching i t They had a little apartm ent'In. the Bronx and Johnnie looked .after Jt for his friend. One of Johnnie’s vices—ac­ cording to the standard of the B-in-a- Box boysA ww that' he was as neat' as an old maid. H e liked to hang around a mess-wagon and cook dough- nuts and pies. H is talent came in handy now, for d a y w as no house- ksspfir* *After the breakfast things were cleared away Johnnie fared forth to a certain house adjoining Biverslde drive, where he earned ten dollars a week as outdoors man. H is business was to do odd jobs .about the place. H e cut and -watered the lawn. H e made small repairs. Beatrice had a rose garden, and under her direction he dug, watered and fertilized. Incidentally, the snub-nosed little puncher with* the unfinished features adored his young m istress in the dumb, uncritical fashion a schoolboy does ft Ty Cobb or an Eddie Collins. In his heart he had hopes that Clay would fall in love with and m arry her. B ut her actions worried' him. Some­ times he wondered if she really under­ stood w hat a catch Clay was. - H e tried to, tell her his notions on the subject the morning Q ay praised his flapjacks. She was among the rose-bushes, gloved and hatted, dipping American Beauties for the dining room, a dainty but very self-reliant UtOe personality. “Miss Beatrice, I been thlnkin’ about you and Clay,” he told her, leaning on his spade. "W hat have you been thinking abont ns?” the girl asked, snipping off a big rose. "How you’re, the best-lookin’ couple that a man would see anywheres.” Into her clear cheeks, the color flowed. “If I thought nonsense like that I wouldn’t say it" she said quiet­ ly. “We’re not a couple. He’s a man. Fm a woman. I like him and "want to stay friends w ith him If you’ll let me.” “Sure. I know th a t but—•” Johnnie groped helplessly to try to explain what he had m eant "Clay he likes you a heap,” he finished inadequately. The eyes of the girl began to dance. There was no use taking offense at this simple soul. “Does he? rm sure Tm gratified,” she murmured, busy with her scissors among the roses. “Yep. I never knowed Clay to look at a girl before. H e sure thinks a heap of you.” She gave a queer little bubbling laugh. “You’re flattering me.” “Honest, I a in t” Johnnie whispered a secret across the rose bushes. “Say, If you work it right I believe you can get him.” The girl sparkled. H ere w as a new slant on matrimonial desirability. Clearly the view of the little cow­ puncher was that Clay had only to crook his fingers to summon any girl In the world th at he desired. “W hat would yon advise me to do?” she dimpled. “Sho! I dunno.” H e shyly, un­ burdened himself of the warning he had been leading -up to. “B ut I’d tie a can to that dude fellow that hangs around—the BromSeld guy. O’ course I know he ain’t one, two, three with you while Clay’s on earth, but I don’t reckon Td take QQy chances, as the old sayin’ is.' Better get shet of the dude.” Miss "Whitford bit her lip to keep from exploding In a sudden gale of mirth. B ut the sight of her self-ap­ pointed chaperon set her;off into peals of laughter in spite of herself. Ev­ ery tim e she looked a t Johnnie she went off into renewed chirrups. H e was so homely and so'deadly earnest The little w aif was staring a t her in perplexed surprise, month open and chin fallen. H e could see no occasion for gayety at his suggestion. There was nothing subtle abont the Rnnt. In his social code wealth did not fig­ ure. A forty-dollar-a-month bronco buster was free to offer advice to the daughter of a millionaire about her matrimonial prospects if It "seemed best “Clay ain’t one 0’ the common run' of cowpunchers, m a’am. You bet you, by jollies, he ain’t Clay he owns a half-interest In the B-in-a-Box. O’ course it ain’t w hat he’s got, but w hat he is that counts. He’s the best darned pilgrim ever I did see.'’ "He’s all rig h t Johnnie,” the girl admitted with an odd smile. “Do you want me to tell him that PU be glad to drop our family friends to meet his approval? I don’t suppose he asked you to speak to me about I t did he?” The little range-rider missed the irony of this. i"No, ma’am, I jest but­ ted In. Mebbe I hadn’ ought to of spoke.” “You needn’t fe d bad, Johnnie. There’s no harm done—if yon don’t say anything about it to Mr. Lindsay. But I don’t think yon were intended for .a match-maker. T hat takes quite a little finesse, doesn’t it?” The word "finesse” w as not in John­ nie’s dictionary, bnt he .acquiesced In her verdict "I reckon, ma’am, you’re rig h t” ' * " * * • • Clay was waiting for lunch a t a rot- IsserIe on Sisth avenue, and in order to lose no time—of which he had more Just now than he knew w hat to do with—was meanwhile reading a news­ paper propped against a water-bottle. From the personal column there popped out .at him three lines that caught his attention: "If this meetd the eye of C. L. of Arizona please w rite me. Box M-21, The Herald. Am in trouble. , K itty M.” He read it again. There conld he no doubt In the world. ’ I t w as ad­ dressed to him, and from Kitty. B e remembered thatr on the bus be had casually mentioned, to her that he usually read the Herald. A fter he had eaten, Clay walked down Broadway and left a note at the office of the Herald for Kitty. The thought of her was in his }»ind all day. H e had worried , a good deal over her disappearance.1 It -was' so t alone that he felt responsible for the loss of her place ag cigarette girl.

A phenomenon, as startling and ' mysterious to the oficera and directors of the Society of Bldependent Artists • as were the recent ghostly .manifests- . tlons In AntlgonlBh to the MacDonalds I add Dr. W alter Franklin Prince, was 'revealed a t the .artists’ exhibition on ■the top door of the Waldorf. The New York spirit nailed a re­ jected drawing to a wall,, and above It hammered four tacks In a card which ;told that the picture was the work of Mrs. Bmma Mabel Field of Chicago, and was called "Bnpresslonlstlc Per­ sonality Portrait of Miss BdiQi Ben­ nett." “Spooks or. no spooks," said A. S. Bayllnson, a director and secretary of the society, “that picture has got to come down.- No one gave Mrs. Field permission to have it exhibited, and our walls aren’t open for. spirits.’’ . A special delivery letter from the artist to Mr. Bayllnson, arrived a few days later. “I am starting for home now,” her letter says, “and will be under way before this letter Is mailed. And I beg to inform you that I have left the mat- te r'entirely in the hands of my guide, who has assured me that my poor UttIr oleture will be exhibited there whether you wish it or not.”—New Turk Times.

Very Painful Dentistry. Dwight Cklttenden claims the dis­ tinction of'being the first white man to have a tooth drawn by one of the colored doctors of the African Trans­ vaal. 'The father of this well-known actor was>a mining engineer in Kim­ berley. While a boy in South Africa shooting pains indicated that a molar must be extracted, and as Dwight Crit­ tenden’s father's mines were situated far from medical aid, one of the med­ icine men was summoned, and after performing a fantastic w ar dance to the tom-tom, this gentleman extracted - the offending molar with the aid of a pair of engineer’s pincers. An anes­ thetic was administered in the form of native Incense, but Dwight contends that it only served to intensify the agony. To Take Census of Bees. A census of the bbes in a hive has been made possible by a clever de­ vice-invented by an employee-of the bureau of . entomology. The invention consists of a gate to be placed' -.at the entrance to a bee­ hive with a series of telephonef mes­ sage registers attached in such a way th at' every time a bee goes through ■ the gate its passage is recorded. The device is operated electrically by al- 'ternating current. '■•"As about 300,000 bees go out during the Vday, on honey-gathering, expedi­ tions, considerable electrical energy is'' needed to operate the recording gate, though the amount of energy ex­ pended by the device each time a bee passes is infinitesimal.

A dramatic little story that Illu­ mines In a flash the strangely un­ wholesome' life that the czar of Rus­ sia had to Uve.in the old days is to be found In Mr. James Lr Ford’s, book, “Forty-Odd Years In the Literaiy Shop." Mr. Fm d had an intimate ac­ quaintance with Baron de Grimm, whose father had been the tutor of Alexander II of Russia, and who him­ self had been an intimate the czarevitch. ■ From De Grimm, he writes, I gained an idea of the Isolation of an autocrat and' the atmosphere of dread, suspi­ cion and uncertainty that surrounds an autocratic court. When the Ozar Alexander H sent his son to. the Riviera for the sake of his health he received from the young man’s at­ tendants only vague reports In regard to his condition, although couriers ar­ rived daily with letters. On oiie occa­ sion the soldim who brought the post bag was ushered into the presence of the czar, whg after, a hasty glance at his correspondence exclaimed: “There is no letter from my son, and ’it Is som e. days since I have heard from him I" “But, sire,” exclaimed the soldier, “he is no Iongm able to w rite!” “Not able to .write I” exclaimed-the sovereign of all the flussias. “Will nobody ever tell me anythingV’ And it may be remembered that Nidiolas H uttered a like despairing cry when the news of the January massacre, which his courtiers had sedulously kept .from him, finally reached bis ears.—Youth’s gompanion. , “ W HO’S WHO” W INS PA SSPO RT W riter’s Somewhat Caustlo Comment on- Authorities Would Seem-to Have Some Justification. ; A man who applied In New York for a passport recently was told that he must have a certificate of birth before the document could b e issued. He had a passport'issued during the war bearing the vise of several "Eu­ ropean countries. That passport bore the date of his birth. The'passport was rejected because it was Issued before Ifil1J. , There was no time to.send to Chi­ cago for a copy of the certificate of birth. A certificate of baptism was offered and rejected, the explanation being that he might hotV have been Joaptized for years after -his-, birth. ’ “W hat is your business Y’ asked the clerk. The applicant said that he was a writer. .“Are you In ‘Who's WhofY' was the next query and Jbevanswer was In the affirmative... • . “That settles it,” said-,the clerk.' He got a copy of “Who’s Who” and found that the brief biography gave the date of birth. The 'application was indorsed, “See ‘Who’s W'Of edi­ tion of 1921, page umpty ump,” and the.document was forwarded, to Wash­ ington with th e assurance that the passport would be back In a few days. “The government," said : th e writer afterward, “will not take lts’.own docu­ ment and . would not take my word, but accepted- a printed biographical sketch which presumably I had writ­ ten.” .

There are so many things we com­ mon people don’t ,know, and in fact never heard of that we surely ought to keep our heads open. We see a great college president going down the streets of our city on a beautiful automobile and we notice a little platform on a street corner, and al monkey with red breeches on it cut­ ting monkey shines, while the boys give him sugar. We see" the pre-.. sident slow up his automobile and: his great heart seems to warm up to the monkey. He takes out his family record and shows us the very year that his folks and the monkey's family lived in the same hollow log. I tell you it makes us country boys scratch our heads. - Presently the president pulls the lever of his automobile and goes up the street at the rate of thirty miles an hour, and presently he slows up agaip and we notice on the corner a Tur­ kish boy and a cinnamon bear wrestling together; and every time the bear throws the boy, it nearly tickles the president to death, and he says, “We are still ahead.” A- gaiu he takes out his family record and can show you the exact year that his great great-great grand­ father was united in holy wedlock to Miss Cinnamon Bear. As the little Turk leads the bear away the president smiles and says: “Now, just look at me and see what a wdnf- derful improvement we have made on our family.” We cofihtry boys just grin ana say what a pity that we meet a rich woman driving down the street in a beautiful carriage, with ,diamons flashing fromherears gold bands on herflngers.and-armsi She is embracing a pbodle dog. We say: “ Well, I guess she has met one of her cousins”—for everybody knows that a woman has a perfect right to hug her kinfolks—and we country folks might just as well make up our mind that we are not in the thing, at all.A Uountry Preacher, in Hickory Mercury. 1, . cemeUtofthe prohibition llwfoilS b th and..jo ( ln lland 011 the Joy ° tllet conVention for Mr. C - ft 1Ogically followed that W w Mm'* 8ht hand ^ haU d a '"CTe opposea to the en- aUd HieUt t^ie Pr°hibition law. , th°se whoInent of , 0PPose the enforce- interp,, , .e are either directly ueT^n m the ‘ nloOnshine' '"dOu Laws busi- toeOnfini!^681 of solnS on a diet is J K1Hiken 0 tt0 e a tth e ttung8 bo Technicality Comes First.. ^ The acquittal of the former Thomasville bank officials, at Lex­ ington, on technical grounds, will not help the cause of banks in gen­ eral and will tend to add to the pub­ lic distrust oi banking institutions. Already thetalk of the street is that “anybody can get away with it,” and then numerous instances are cited. If the laws have become so complicated that it^is. next to im­ possible to obtain a conviction through! technical defects, it is time the laws were weeded out. We were told recently by acbautauqua lecturer that public distrust and dis­ gust with the laws was largely the result of too much technicality and that laws, in the hands of skilled lawyers are too wieidy.

Tlie explorer had the usual narrow e!Kipe£ from imminent death by sea anii land and has set tongues wagging about the likelihood of the. isthmus teins the tail-end or hend-end of the ,Ilinntean continent. Both Sides of the Case. Although an American ethnologist, !filliam R. Babcock, has buried At- IjBtis for the last of many times in Hs present book, “Legendary Islands ,f the Atlantic," published by the American Geographical society, this latest resurrection is likely to stir the of the missing link be- J1Pen Gibraltar and Panama to life again also. The biggest friend of the long-lost isle is a German, H err Prof. Fro- Ppnitis of Berlin, who traversed much rf West Africa to see if there were not some leavings of the lost there, and he professed to be quite con­ vinced that there are. Professor Weiner of Harvard, from a study of the similarities of plants and animals Cf Africa and South America, inclines to the hypothesis that the sons of HaiU onte passed dry-shod from the Sene­ gal to the Amazon, or vice versa. It is understood that if Hercules had not gotten liome-sick when be had the job of holding up Mount Atlas for a uhile he might have beaten Co- Imks by some 4,000 years, and that too, by walking over to Colon, but the Greek explorer had enough of it with set up his pillars and went home to his wife, thereby leaving dissension among antiquarians for 50 centuries. Tapestries In Evidence. Mitchell-Hedges comes as the cli­ max of a number of explorers who have been dipping into the San Bias problem, and m aybe he has the key. He has the advantage of the labors of many predecessors in his task. He has the tapestries, and they look like the work of the Hebrew children' who made clothes for' Bameses—or. maybe, he says, they are like Aztec work. At any rate they are like the work of other people than mere Indians; and how. could- those mountaineers get those designs except by having them handed down from the folks who crossed the sea when it wasn't any sea a t all? Moreover,, the m en in the mountains wore great big earrings of solid gold. Who taught'them to dig-for gold? The problem, is truly formidable, and one may watch the ,.ethnological journals now with interest.

VEXATIONS BESET TRAVELERS American Tourist Who Crosses Eu­ rope Must Be Prepared to Pay $10 to Cross Every Frontier— Resorts Are Crowded. Berlin.—The German foreign office is now charging foreign visitors to Germany the same amount for pass­ port visas that the respective govern­ m ents of their countries ask of Ger­ mans: Because exchange 'fluctuates so rapidly the foreign office Axes the number of m arks the foreigner must pay anew each month. T h is. means that,-w hile Austrlans can now enter Germany on paying the equivalent of 15 cents, Americans m ust be prepared to pay at least $10 to cross every fron­ tier, and if one should have failed to have fulfilled formalities be is bur­ dened with absurdly heavy fines. — Traveler Objects. A recent traveler coming from Italy to Munich by,, way of the Austrian, strip of territory through Salzberg that little job around Morocco, so he was asked by' the A ustrian authorities Here Is a Fine Harbor for Sale 1 I it Ii in in cf transport is looking for a purchaser of the'harbor 1 n " I Il i semi dcteloped harbor is not needed by the ministry for til Murpmg ad a-, a rciult has been put-on the market. The «umsgate corporation, representing the township, has the m atter under con- Meration but probably will be unable to undertake the purchase because of e Iimnense financial investment necessary for further developments. The Ii olograph shows ltamsgate harbor and part of the town. to pay the equivalent of $20 for their little rubber stamp. Objecting to pay­ ing this amount, the traveler finally induced the authorities to reduce the amount to the customary $10. Difficulties by both Polish and Ger­ man governments In crossing Prussia and the Danzig neck of Polish terri­ tory will continue to take the pleas­ ure out of travel and to hamper , busi­ ness in this corner of the world. Both states demand full sets of special visas and the universal $10 payment of Americans. The Poles rarely hesi­ tate in the corridor to turn out all who fail to observe this letter of the law, whatever their nationality is. Now that reparations, railroad and other international commissions are meeting it is tim e that another one meets an! determines ways tc elim­ inate petty vexations to travel. German summer resorts, and espe­ cially bathing beaches, w ill. be par­ ticularly overcrowded this summer, according to the statem ents which German hotel proprietors make. They are trying to keep as wide a range of prices as possible, for all sizes of pocketbooks, but the steady, increase now in. cost of living is forcing all prices skyward. The range for rooms in the smaller bathing places today, extends from 100 to 800 marks, and for Americans from a half again to double this amount, or in other words from 75 ;ents to $5. ' Ordinarily the German hotels and pensions made pension rates. Now,, owing to the wide fluctuations In food.' prices, they give a price for rooms and; leave the amount they charge for: meals open. It is possible at. m ost'of the. sum­ m er resorts to secure three and four; rooms with kitchen at prices around, 12,000 to 20,000 marks, or In dollars' from $400 to $700 for Oie entire three months' season.

A hunter's paradise is Mexico, and almost within sight of the capital are forests that abound with wild game, offered at all seasons in the Mexico City markets. Venison is a staple and wild duck3 and geese may be purchased for a few centavos. Live quail as well as varie­ ties of pheasants and pigeons are sold on the streets by peddlers. Indians from the hills frequently trudge to the city with a wild boar, and turkeys may be had for the price of a paltry tip to a native hunter. If one is so inclined, a tender monkey may be procured for Sunday baking, a dish that Mexican epicures, especially of the tropical regions, rel­ ish above alt others. Vinous indulgence leads a man to perpetrate a poor joke and his hear­ ers to laugh at it. An occasional look at your boy's room may explain why he is on the street so much.

Thousands Have Kidney I Trouble and Never I Suspect It I Applicants for Insurance Often j Rejected. Judging from reports from druggists who are constantly in direct touch with I the public, there is- one preparation that has been very successful • in overcoming I these conditions. The mild and healing 1 influence of Dr. Kilmer’B Swamp-Boot is ; soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success. I An examining physician for one of the I prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on the subject, made the as­ tonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are re­ jected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applica­ tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the f ’’sease. Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp Root, is on sale 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., Bingham­ ton, N.

Tearing Iier hair and shrieking, Mrs. Holt then ran to a fence rin which she previously had. fastened a hatchet. Backing away 20 feet, she lowered her head and ran straight against the sharp blade, cleaving her skull. The father watched the tragedy as though paralyzed until the woman fell, then ran to notify neighbors. The boy was found hanging head down over the edge of the rain barrel in an un­ conscious condition and hope is held for his recovery. The infunt perished in the barrel.

Fos- . ter At -The Meeting Cincinnati, Ohio.—By the*1 vote of every delegate, the American Federa­ tion of Labor convention in session here indorsed the nation-wide coal strike that since April I has kept half a million m iners from work, and also indicated. By a demonstration, its ap­ proval of the threatened walkout of more than a million railroad workers. The dem onstration was loud cheers' from all parts of the big convention hall when B. M. Jewell, president’’of' the railway employees’ departm ent of the federation, told the convention that the rail union officials would not interfere to stop a strike. lIt is believed,” declared Mr. Jew­ ell, “that the membership is prepared to m eet the test, and if they do de­ cide, their decisions will be complied with.” V The indorsement of the m iners’ strike was given Jby a rising vote, cast by the delegates amid their own cheers and afterw ard’ W illiam Green, secre- tary-treasurer of the m iners’ union, de­ clared that the m iners were in the fight^ tri the finish, and he said it m ight be necessary to ask other unions for financial assistance. Other developments also marked the convention session, although it was cut’ short so delegates might attend a barbecue, staged on a river Island, 20 miles from this city. The “one big union” plan, advocated by W illiam L. Foster, was rejected by the conven­ tion without debate, and later an­ nouncement was made that Mr. Foster would hold a-jnass meeting some time next week. Plans for unionizing un­ organized workers also, were laid by the convention, which, In addition, adopted a resolution declaring in fa­ vor of an “intensive organization'to combat the "open shop.” Aside from the convention work, the executive council of the federation gave its final consideration to the re­ cent decision of the Supreme court in the Coronado ,coal case and prepared its report criticising the decision. The council decided . not to propose any means for overcoming the decision on account of the convention having or­ dered a special policy committee to outline a program centering on the Coronado and other decisions. Appointment of this committee, vest­ ed with broad powers, was authorized by the convention after he'aring- Sena­ tor LaFollette of Wisconsin and after indicating the approval of the congres­ sional veto of the Supreme- court de­ cisions, a proposal sim ilar to one adopted by the federation' two years ago.

Newberry for his activities in revising the naval' appro­ priations bill’is brewing in congress. A group in both the senate Jand house are preparing to offer determin­ ed resistance to the attem pts of . New­ berry In slashing the M are Island pro­ vision of the appropriations measure. s The. Mare Island paragraph is the "pet" of Representatives. KeIIey of Michigan and Madden,, of Illinois, who drew up the appropriations bill in the house and obtained its passage. While the bill y>as In committee in the senate the Mare Island appropriation was cut from 4750,000 to $250,000. Senator King, democrat, of Utah, has started the fight against the bill with a formal statement referring to the cut. . “I shall not call attention to what the committee would do with the five hundred. thousand-dollgrs taken . away from Mare Island,” he said. "But a comparison of the house 'and senate bills will furnish some ehlightment, “This bill should be, and I am snre will be, fairly and impartially consid­ ered without reference to geography or political considerations.” . ' He served clear notice of the fight When he said: “Mare Island is not going to be abandoned and the distin­ guished senator from Michigan, Mr. Newberry,, and his. colleagues who voted with him In committee should reconcile themselves to that fact. "I regret that the committee fram­ ing the. bill have dealt in such an im­ politic, not to say unfair manner," with Mare Island. "The appropriation for dyking and dredging has been reduced from $750,- 000 to $250,000.

FINAL INCOME TAX PAYMENTS IN JUNE TO BE $300J)00,000 Against This, Treasury Must Make Payments Totaling More T han' $750,000,000 W ashington.—Secretary Mellon has estim ated that the final income tax payments for . 1921, just made will, ap­ proximate $300,000,000, but against this the treasury m ust meet payments dur­ ing June totaling $755,000,000,. says a correspondent. The treasury's bills for the month of June ,itemized, disclose $250,000,000 owing for the redeemed victory 3 3-4’s, redemption of which began recently; $380,000,000 owing for m aturing treas­ ury certificates of lndebetedness, and $125,000,000, interest op the public debt. Therefore- to m eet these bills, the government will need about $250,000,- 000 additional over and above existing balandes with depositaries. For this purpose one-year 3. 3-4 treasury certif­ icates have been issued. Althoiigh these figures would seem to indicate that the government is do- ing^m siness on the wrong side of the ledger, nevertheless the public debt is steadily diminishing. If Secretary Mellon’s $300,000,000 June income tax installm ent estim ate is borne out by returns, total tax re­ turns for the last fiscal year 1922 will be approximately $2,000,000,000. Up to date the government has paid more than $410,000,000 on the public debt for the fiscal .year 1922. The, pub­ lic debt total as of June 30, 1922, will probably be slightly more than $23, ODD,000,000. . The peak of public indebtedness was August 31, 1919, at which time the government owed, in round numbers, $25,596,000,000. Since, then it, has been reduced about $1,000,000,000 a year.’ Treasury notes outstanding at pres ent, total $1,921,265,900; treasury cer­ tificates, $1,736,749,000; and war, sav­ ings securities $670,687,978,000.' The two victory notes issues now to­ tal $2,571,504,450.

NEIfTRAl ONJKOALS OFFERS Report That President Opposed Ford Proposal is Emphatically Denied The Hague.—The first battle of the Carnegie peace palace was won by cor­ respondents of the world, who refused to be excluded from the palace while the postponed Genoa conference on RuBBian affairs was holding its first meeting. Indignant newspapermen and women, representing more than 20 nations, ignored the - edict of. the Dntch foreign office that journalists should not even be admitted to the gardens^ of the palace and .forced their way through the gates and into the building WhereJ they demanded an au­ dience with the Dutch foreign minis­ ter, and presented a petition to him in person protesting against such treat­ ment of the-world press in the-inter­ national palace of peace. Dutch foreign office officials, de­ tectives and policemen were unable to check the correspondents . among whom A m ericans/B ritish and French predominated. After Gie correspond­ ents had gained the entrance to the m arble corridor of the palace, which Andrew Carnegie made, possible, po­ licemen tried to persuade them to leave, but witfiriut avail.

Many of the correspondents entered the hall before .the session' began and were officially ordered out by a rep­ resentative of the-D utch foreign of­ fice. Finally Foreign M inister Van Kamebeek appeared and addressed the correspondents. Replying to their pro­ test, he said it had been- decided that correspondents should not even enter the grounds while the conference was In session, but once they had entered ,the palace, he could not order them out. He wished it understood, how­ ever, that this was no precedent; The correspondents protested that they had received no such treatm ent at Genoa and other conferences, where open meetings were arranged and no effort was made to prevent them from getting reliable Information about the news developments in. the sessions they did not attend; Finally squads of’ Dutch soldiers were stationed In the corridors to patrol them and limit the movements of the journalists to the corridors adjacent to the main entrance. TvashinEton--Frospects for ’ early action by the house .on proposed legis­ lation for development of the govern­ ment’s projects at Muscle Shrials, Ala., were recently brightened by authori­ tative announcement from the white house that administration officials were Willing and anxious for house leaders to' act on the m atter with a See hand.

Wal­ do, consulting engineer for the Ten­ nessee River Improvement association, for final examination and later an­ nounced the committee’s public ses­ sions probably would be ended this week.

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. Kilmer’s Swamp-Boot is soon realized. 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 as­ tonishing statement that one reason why so many applicants for insurance are re- : jected is because kidney trouble is so j common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applica­ tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the f-sease.

K’S MINERS PLANS IEADSNOTJTOjINTERFERE Plan for “One Blg Union” Loses After Presentation ,By yviliiam L. Fos- ter At The Meeting Cincinnati, Ohio.—By the'' vote of every delegate, the American Federa­ tion of Labor convention In session here indorsed the nation-wide ' coal strike that since April I has kept half a million m iners from work, and also Indicated, by a demonstration, its ap­ proval of the threatened walkout of more than a million railroad workers. The demonstration was loud cheers' from all parts of the big convention, hall when B. M. Jewell, president’’o f the railway employees’ departm ent of the federation, told the convention that the rail union officials would not Interfere to stop a strike. "'It is believed,” declared Mr. Jew­ el], “that the membership is prepared to meet the test, and if they do de­ cide, their decisions will be complied with.” The indorsement of the m iners’ strike was given by a rising vote, cast by the delegates amid their own cheers and afterw ard W illiam Green, secre- tary-treasurer of the m iners’ union, de­ clared that the miners were in the fight, to the finish, and he said it m ight be necessary to ask other unions for financial assistance. Other developments also marked the convention session, although it was cut short so delegates might attend a barbecue, staged on a river' island, 20 miles from this city. The “one big union” plan, advocated by W illiam L. Foster, was rejected by the conven­ tion without debate, and later an­ nouncement was made that Mr. Foster would hold a-m ass meeting some time next week. Plans for unionizing un­ organized workers also, were laid by the convention, which, in addition, adopted a resolution declaring in fa­ vor of an “intensive organization’to combat the “open shop.” Aside from the convention work, the executive council of the federation gave its final consideration to the re­ cent decision of the Supreme court in the Coronado ,coal case and prepared its' report criticising the decision. The council decided not to propose any means for overcoming the decision on account of the convention having or­ dered a special policy committee to outline a program centering on the Coronado and other decisions. Appointment of this committee, vest­ ed with broad powers, was authoriz’ed. by the convention after hearing- Sena­ tor LaFollette of Wisconsin and after indicating the approval of the congres­ sional veto of the Supreme court de­ cisions, a proposal sim ilar to one adopted by the federation two years ago. Gives Law Force To Recent Treaty London—The draft of the new Irish constitution just made public on the ere-of the Irish election gives, as the document itself states, force of lav/ to the Anglo-Irish treaty and expressly declares that any provisions of the constitution or any amendment thereto, or any law- enacted under the consti­ tution, which is in any respect repug­ nant to the treaty, shall be void an ^ inoperative. The constitution thus em­ bodies connection with the British crown, as already established in the treaty. Religious Fanatic Dying of Snake Bite Fackler, A la—Jack Akin, member of the “Holy Roller” church near here, is at the point of" death as the result of bites from a copper-heaTd snake which he saw crossing the road and which he picked up when, as he said, he “felt the power of God come on me.” He was bitten on both hands and refuses medical attention. General Strike In Mexico City Mexico City.—Mexico City is with­ out street car service, the bakers are not working, and the suspension of the light; power and w ater supply serv­ ices was expected momentarily as result of a strike initiated by the street car men. Elaborate precautions have been taken to prevent violence. Washington.—A new fight against Senator Truman H. Newberry for his activities In revising the naval' appro­ priations bill is brewing in congress. A group in both the senate land house are preparing to offer determin­ ed resistance to the attem pts of . New­ berry in slashing the Mare Island pro­ vision of the appropriations measure. The. Mare Island paragraph is the pet” of Representatives Kelley of Michigan and Madden, of Illinois, who drew up the appropriations bill in the house and obtained its passage. While the bill was in committee In the senate the Mare Island appropriation was cut from $750,000 to $250,000. Senator King, democrat, of Utah, has started the fight against the bill with a formal statem ent referring to the cut. I shall not call attention to what th e committee would do with the five iundred - thousand -dollars taken . away from Mare Island,’’ he said. “But a comparison of the house 'and senate bills will furnish some enlightment. 'This bill should be, and I am sure will be, fairly and impartially consid­ ered without reference to geography or political considerations.” ' He served clear notice of the fight When he said: "Mare Island is not going to be abandoned and the distin­ guished senator from Michigan, Mr. Newberry, and his. colleagues who voted with him in committee should reconcile themselves to that fact. 'I regret that the committee fram­ ing the bill have dealt in such an im­ politic, not to say unfair manner,' with Mare Island. lThe appropriation for dyking and dredging has been reduced from $750,- 000 to $250,000. I t would seem that the scheme devised some' time ago in the nevy department, and aided and abetted by some, eminent, persons in and out Of cpngressitbr W reckand de­ stroy Mare /island, which is. undoubt­ edly the most efficient ’of. the nayal establishments, is still being . prose­ cuted. More' than $35,000,000 of the taxpayers’, money have been, expended in building up the Mare Island plant "I am advised that thejdistinguished senator from Michigan, Mr. Newberry, gave the weight of'his great influence to this plan to destroy Mare Island.” FIRST ENCOUNTER WON BY SCRIBE DISREGARD THE DUTCH EDICT EXCLUDING THEM FROM CARNEGIE HALL ENTER Hllli BEFORE SESSIflIj Force Way Into Palace And Finally Are Invited To Tea Under Armed Neutrality ' FINAL INCOME TAX PAYMENTS IN JUNE TO BE $300,000,000 Against This, Treasury Must Make Payments Tctaling More Than $750,000,000 W ashington.—Secretary Mellon has estimated that the final income tax payments for 1921, just made will ap­ proximate $300,000,000, but against this the treasury m ust meet payments dur­ ing June totaling $75!T,000,000,. says a correspondent. The treasury’s bjlls for the month of June ,itemized, disclose $250,000,000 owing for the redeemed victory 3 3-4’s, redemption of which began recently; $380,000,000 owing for maturing treas­ ury certificates of indebetedness, and $125,000,000. interest on the public debt. Therefore, to meet these bills, the government will need about $250,000, 000 additional over and above existing balances with depositaries. For this purpose one-year 3 3-4 treasury certif­ icates have been issued. Although these figures would seem to indicate that the government is do ing Jiusiness on the wrong side of the ledger, nevertheless the public debt is steadily diminishing. If Secretary Melion’s $300,000,000 June income tax installm ent estimate is borne out by returns, total tax re­ turns for the last fiscal year 1922 will be approximately $2,000,000,000. Up to date the government has paid more than $410,000,000 on the public debt for the fiscal year 1922! The. pub­ lic debt total as of June 30, 1922, will probably be slightly more than $i 000,000,000. . The peak of public indebtedness was August 31, 1919, at which tim e the government owed, in round numbers, $25,596,000,000. Since, then it, has been reduced about $1,000,000,000 a year.' Treasury notes outstanding at pres- ent, total $1,921,265,900; treasury cer­ tificates, $1,736,749,000; and war, sav­ ings securities $670,687(978,000,- The two victory notes issues now to­ tal $2,571,504,450.

NEUTRAL ON JROALS OFFERS Report That President Opposed Ford Proposal Is Emphatically Denied The Hague.—The first battle of the Carnegie peace palace was won by cor­ respondents of the world, who refused to be excluded from the palace while the postponed Genoa conference on Russian affairs was holding its first meeting. Indignant newspapermen and women, representing more than 20 nations, ignored the edict of. the Dutch foreign office that journalists should not even be admitted to the gardens of the palace and forced their way through the gates and into the building where they demanded an au­ dience with the Dutch foreign minis­ ter, and presented a petition to him in person protesting against such treat­ ment of the-world press in the'inter­ national palace of peace. Dutch foreign office officials, de­ tectives and policemen were unable to check the correspondents . among whom Americans, British and French predominated. After Bte correspond­ ents had gained the entrance to the .marble corridor of the palace, which Andrew Carnegie made, possible, po­ licemen tried to persuade them to leave, but without avail. The news­ paper writers announced they would stay until expelled by force. They had been welcome visitors a t the meet­ ing of the international court of jus­ tice in the same building in the morn­ ing, and they declined to wait in the garderitor news of the conference pro­ ceedings. Many of the correspondents entered the hall before .the session began and were officially ordered out by a rep­ resentative of the~ Dutch foreign of­ fice. Finally Foreign M inister Van Karnebeek appeared and addressed the correspondents. Replying to their pro­ test, he said it had been- decided that correspondents should not even enter the grounds while the conference was In session, but once they had entered the palace, he could not order them o u t He wished it understood, how­ ever, that this was no precedent-. The correspondents . protested that they had received no such treatm ent at Genoa and other conferences, where open meetings were arranged and no effort was made to prevent them from getting reliable information about the news developments in. the sessions they did not attend: Finally squads Ofr Dutch soldiers were stationed in the corridors to patrol them and limit the movements of the journalists to the corridors adjacent to the main entrance. Washington.—Prospects for early action by the house .on proposed legis­ lation for development of the govern­ ment’s projects at Muscle Shoals, Ala., 'w ere recently brightened by authori­ tative announcement from the white house that administration officials were willing and anxious for house leaders to' act on the m atter with a free hand. President Harding, it was said, has taken no position in opposition or-sup­ port of Henry Ford's proposal, believ­ ing that it was a question for legisla­ tive decision bnly. At the same time, it was further explained, the president, realizes the great possibilities for the national good that might result by ex­ ploitation of the Alabama properties, ir­ respective of the form such develop­ ment might take. ^ W hat action the house will take, Representative Mondell, the Republi­ can leader announced, would be de­ cided in conference of majority mem­ bers. Until that time, he told Rep­ resentative G arrett of Tennessee, act­ ing Democratic leader, no more such statements should be given respecting Muscle Shoals questions. Mr. Mon­ dell added, hovfever, that the decision would be formulated “in the near fu­ ture.” Mr. Garrett told hi3 colleague the Republicans would have an interesting time if they brought in the ship sub­ sidy bill and refused to give consid­ eration to the disposal of the Muscle Shoals units which promised, if al­ lowed further development, to produce cheaper fertilizers for the farmers. Later an appeal to the Republicans for early consideration of Muscle Shoals legislation was .made by Repre­ sentative Bankhead (Democrat) of Ala­ bama! AU the great agricultural ro- ganizations of the country and busi­ ness organizations of th'e Mississippi vaUey, he said, were vitally interested, in the Ford proposition and were in­ sistent that some final action be taken before the end of the present session. A nearer approach , to termination of hearings on the various proposals for Muscle Shoals was made by the .senate agricultural committee. Chairman Norris of Nebraska caUed W. G. W al­ do, consulting engineer for the Ten­ nessee River Improvement association, for final examination and later an­ nounced the committee’s public ses­ sions probably would be ended this week. SEASHpRE BUNGALOW COLONY IS SW EPT BY CONFLAGRATION New York.—Fire swept through the seashore bungalow colony at Arverne between Rockaway and F ar Rockaway the other night and destroyed between six hundred and seven hundred build­ ings. More than a score of colonists, overcome by smoke while fighting to save their effects, were rescued by firemen and policemen. Arvem e lies in a narrow part of the Rockaway peninsula and stretches across from Jam aica bay to the sea. The blaze, believed to have started in Hotel Northless, spread to the light wooden, bungalows on the bayside and destroyed several boarding houses. Fire boats, sent.- from New York, fought the fire from the bay. Every structure in a five-block area was destroyed. W eeks Deplores The Political Trend Cleveland, Ohio.—A frankly pessi­ mistic yiew of some of the predomi­ nant tendencies of American political thought was voiced by Secretary of W ar W eeks at the commencement ex­ ercises of W esteni •foeserve University. In an address, which he said he was tempted to/entitle “The Decline of the American Government,” the w ar sec­ retary declared the drift of recent years was gradually weakening the na- tionis governmental structure by un­ dermining the Constitution. Built Railroad Under “Spirits” Voices New York.—That every mile of the 3,000 miles of railroad. he had built has been constructed by following the advice of spirits and that he changed the direction of the Kansas City South­ ern, and built his terminal at Port Ar­ thur, Texas, rather than Galveston, which the spirits warned him to avoid because of coming disaster there, is the assertion of A.

Stillwell, who says he has been president of many railroads and was president for seven years of the National Surety com- paijy. - Child Is Killed In Train Wreck Mobile,'-Ala.—Train No. 4 of the fast New Orteans and New York' Limited on the Louisville and Nashville -rail­ road,-split a Switch three miles north of Canoe, Ala., crashin gthrough a po­ tato- packing shed shortly before two o'clock the other afternoon.

CITIES Berlin.—Five American cities, Balti­ more, Milwaukee, Chicago, Indianap­ olis and Canton, Ohio—will soon have new; German sewage disposal plants which develop a valuable fertilizing material. > Plants such as have been sold to the American cities already are in op­ eration in Hanover and Franktort-Am- Main. As they are introduced in oth­ er German centers, they are expected to overcome the nation's fertilizer shortage. The process of fertilizer manufac­ ture works on the 'centrifugal princi­ ple, dewatering and purifying the sew­ age simultaneously. The disposal plants are extremely compact, and eliminate the large sew­ ages beds used in existing processes. ThS plant at Frankfort, a city of 700,- 000 population, covers about the same area ah a small suburban cottage. Labor Would .Curb Supreme Court . Cincinnati.—Organized labor indicat­ ed at the American Federation of Labor convention here that it would start a drive for a constitutional veto of supreme court decisions, and for the denial of the power of lower federal courts to set aside a federal law as unconstitutional. This, the delegates were informed, would overcome decis­ ions which labor has regarded as in­ imical to its interest.

U , CHARLOTTE, NO. 25-1922. 95 B * W I L L I A M M a c L E O D R A I N E Coprright by William MacLeod Raine ANNIE MILLIKAN STNOPSIS.—A foreword tells this: Motoring through Arizona, a party of' easterners, father and daughter and a male companion, stop -to wit­ ness a cattle roiind up. The girl leaves the car and is attached by a wild steer. A masterpiece of riding on the part of one of the cowboys saves her life. Then the Btory begins: Clay Lindsay, ranger rider on an Arizona ranch, an­ nounces his intention to visit the “big town," New York. On the train Undsay becomes interested in a young woman, Kitty Mason, on her way to New York to become a motion-picture . actress. She is marked as fair prey by a fellow traveler, Jerry Durand, gang politi­ cian and ex-prize fighter. Perceiving his intentions, Lindsay provokes a quarrel and • throws Durand from the train. On his first day in New York Lindsay is splashed with wa­ter by a janitor. That individual the range-rider punishes summarily and leaves tied to a fire hydrant. A young1: wqpnan who sees the oc­ currence invites Clay into her house and hides him from the po­lice. Clay’s "rescuer” introduces herself as Beatrice "WJlitford. Lind­ say meets her father, Colin Whit- ford, and is Invited to visit them again. He meets Kitty Mason by accident. She has been disappointed In her stage aspirations, and to support herself is selling cigarettes In- a cabaret. Clay visits her there. Kitty is insulted by a customer. Clay punishes the annoyer. After a lively mh.up Lindsay escapes! Outside, he is attacked by Jerry Durand and a companion and beaten insensible. Lindsay's ac­ quaintance with Beatrice Whitford ripens. Through her. he is intro­ duced into "society." His “side partner” on the Arizona ranch, Johnnie Green, comes to the "big town.” The two take an apartment together. Kitty Mason gets word to Clay that she Is In trouble. He goes to a house where she is sup­ posed to be shut up. He goes to the rescue. CHAPTER V lf-Continued. “Nothin’ doin’, old-timer. This is my job, and I don’t reckon I’ll let any­ body else tackle it. Much obliged, Just the same. You’re one sure- enough white man, Johnnfe.” The little fellow knew that the mat­ ter was 'Settled. Clay had decided and w hat he-Said was final. But John­ nie wonjqd atibut it all the way. At. the last moment, when they separated ki the street corner,'he added one last jvord. 1 jf “Dtjn't you be too venturesome, son. them 'guy s got you it sure would break me all up.” Clay smiled cheerfully. “They’re not goin’ to get me,. Johnnie. Don’t forget to remember not to forget yore part. Keep under cover for thirty min­ utes; then if I haven’t shown up, holler yore head off for the cops.” They were passing an alley as Clay finished speaking. He slipped into its friendly darkness and was presently lost to sight. It ran ' into an inner court which was the center of tortu­ ous passages. The cattleman stopped to get his bearings, selected the likeli­ est exit, and brought up in the shel­ ter of a small porch. This, he felt sure, must be the rear of the house he wanted. A strip of lattice work ran up the side of the entrance. Yery carefully, testing every slat with his weight be­ fore trusting himself to it, he climbed up and edged forward noiselessly upon the roof. On hands and knees he crawled to the window and tried to peer In. The blind was down, but he could see that the room was dark. W hat danger lurked behind, the drawn1 blind he could not guess, but after a mo­ ment, to make sure that the revolver beneath his belt Was ready for in­ stant use, he put his hand gently on the sash. IIis .motions were soundless as the fall of snowflakes. The window moved slowly, almost imperceptibly, under the pressure of his hands. Warily he lift­ ed one leg into the room. His head followed, then the rest of his body. He waited, every nerve tensed. . There came to him a sound that sent cold finger-tips playing a tattoo up and down his spine. It was the in­ take of some one’s cautious breathing. ■ His hand crept to the butt of the revolver. He crouched, poised for either. attack or retreat. : . A bath of light flooded the room and swallowed the darkness. Instantly Clay’s revolver leaped to the air. CHAPTER VIII. ... A; Late Evening 'Call.- ' A ..young woman in ■ an open-n'eck nightgown sat up In bed, a cascade of black hair !fallen over her white shoul­ ders. Eyes like jet beads were fast­ ened on him, In them he read Indig­ nation struggling with fear. “Say, what are you anyhow—a moll buzzer? If you’re a porch-climber out for the props you’ve sure come to the wrong dump. I got nothin’ but bum rocks.” This was Greek to Clay. H e did not know that she had asked him if he were a man who robs women, and that she had told him he could get no di­ amonds there since hers were false. The Arizonan guessed at once that he was not In the room mentioned In the letter. He slipped his revolver back into its place between shirt and trousers. “Is this house number 121?” he asked. “No, It’s 123. W hat of It?” “It’s the wrong house. Tm ,ce’tainly one chump.” The black eyes lit with sardonic mockery. “Say,, do I look like one of them bom-every-minute kind?” she asked easily, “Go ahead and spring that old one on me about how you got tanked at the club and come in at the window on account o’ your wife havin’ a temper somethin’ fierce.” “No, I—I was lookin’ for some one else. I’m awful sorry I scared you. I’d eat dirt If it would do any good, but it won’t. I’m just a plumb idiot. I reckon Tll be pushin’ on my reins.” He turned toward the window. “Stop right there where you’re at,” she ordered sharply. “Take a step to that window and I’ll holler for a harness bull like a Bowery bride get- tin* a wallopin’ from friend husband. I gotta have an explanation. And who told you I was scared? Forget that stuff. Take it from Annie that she ain’t the kind that scares.” "I came to see some one else, but I got In the wrong house,” he explained again lamely. • "That’s twice I heard both them In­ terestin’ facts. Who is .this goil you was cornin’ through a window to see in the middle o’ the night. And what's that gat for if it ain’t to croak some Other guy? You oughtta be ashamed of yourself for not pullin’ a better wheeze than that on me.” Clay blushed. In spite of the slangy Impudence that dropped from the pretty red lips the girl was slim and looked virginal. “You’re ’way oif. I wasn’t callin’ on her to—" He stuck hopelessly. “Whadya know about that?” she. came back with obvious sarcasm. “You soitainly give me a pain. Tll say you weren’t callin’ to arrange no Sunday school picnic. Listen. Look at th at wall a minute, will you?” Wlien he turned again at her order she was sitting on the side of the bed wrapped in a kimono, her feet in bed­ room slippers. He saw now that she was a slender-limbed slip of a girl. The lean forearm, which showed bare to the elbow when she raised it to draw the kimono closer “round her, told Clay that she was noine.rtoo Well nourished. It occurred to him that she might give him information of value. He told her the story of K itty Mason. He could see by the girl’s eyes that she had jumped to the conclusion that he was in love with Kitty. He did not attem pt to disturb that conviction. It might enlist .her sympathy. Annie Millihan had never seen a man like this before, so clean and straight and good to look a t From childhood she had been brought up on the fringe of that underworld the at­ mosphere of which is miasmic. She was impressed in spite of herself. “Say, why don’t you go Into the movies and be one of these here screen Ideals? You’d knock ’em dead,” she advised flippantly, crossing her bare ankles. Clay laughed. He liked the insolent little twist to her mouth. She made I “Say, Why Don't You Go Into the Movies and Be One of These Here Screen Ideals?” one strong appeal to him. This bit of a girl, so slim that he could break her In his hands, was game to the core. He recognized it as a quality of kin­ ship. “How do you know the . girl ain’t a badger-worker? You w antta go slow when you tackle Jeary Durand, I can tell yon one thing. He's In this busi­ ness 'u p to the.neck. I seen bis shadow, Gorilla Dave, cornin’ outa the house next door twice today.” q “Seen anything qf the girl?” “Nope. But she may be there. Hon­ est, you’re up against a tough game. Why don’t you lay down on it?” she asked, her frank eyes searching his, “You goitalnly will If you’ve got good sense.” ‘Tm goln’ through.” H er black eyes warmed: “Say, Tll bet you’re some guy when you get started. Hop to It'and I, hope you get Jerry good. Say, listen! I got a hunch mebbe It’s a bum steer, but you can’t be sure till you try IL Why don’t you get In through Sie roof in­ stead o’ the window?” “Can I get In that way?” “Surest think you know—if. the trap­ door ain’t latched. Say, stick around outside my room half a sec, will you?” The cattleman waited In the dark­ ness of the passage. If his enemies were trying to ambush him in the house next door the girl’s plan might save him. He would have a chance at-least to get them unexpectedly ■ in the rear. It could have been scarcely more than two minutes later that the young woman joined him. They padded soft­ ly along the corridor till they came to a flight of stgirs running, up. The girl led the way, taking the treads without noise in her stockinged- feet. Clay followed with the utm ost caution. She took him toward the rear to a ladder which ended, at a-dorm er half- door leading to the roof. Clay fumbled with his fingers, found a hook, un­ fastened it, and pushed open the trap. He looked up into a starlit night and a moment later stepped out upon the. roof. Presently the slim figure of the girl stood beside him. They moved across to a low wall, climbed it and came to the dormer door of the 'n est house. O ay knelt and lifted it an. inch or two very slow­ ly. He lowered it again and rose. ‘Tm a heap obliged to you, Miss,” he said in a low voice. “You’re a game little gentleman.” She nodded. “M t name Is Annie Millikan.” ’ ‘Mine is Clay Lindsay. I want to come and thank you proper some day.” T take tickets a t Heath’s Palace of Wonders ,two blocks down,” she whispered. “Look put for yourself. Don’t let ’em get you. Give ’em a chance, and that gang would croak you sure. You will be careful, won’t you?” ‘T never threw down on myself yet.” The girl’s flippancy broke put again. Say, lemme know when the weddin’ is and ITl send you a salad bowl,” she flashed at him saucily as he turned to’ gO. Clay was already busy, with the doori Darkness engulfed him as he closed the trapdoor overhead. Eils exploring feet found each tread of the ladder with the utmost caution. Near the foot of it he stopped to listen for any sound that might serve to guide him. None came. The passage was as noiseless as it was dark. Again he had that, sense of cold finger-tips making a keyboard of his spine. -But he trod down the panic and set his will to carry on. He crept forward along the:passage. Ev­ ery step or two he stopped to listen, nerves keyed to an acute tension. A flight of stairs brought him to what he knew m ust be. the second floor. To him there floated a. murmur of sounds. He soft-footed it closer, reached the door, and dropped noise­ lessly to a knee. A key was in the lock on the outside. W ith infinite precaution against rattling he turned it, slid it out, and dropped it in his coat pocket His eye fastened to the opening.- Three men were sitting round a table. They were making, a bluff at playing cards, but their attention was focused on a door that evidently led into another room. Two automatic revolvers were on the table close to the hands of their owners. A black­ jack lay 'in front of the third man. Clay recognized him as Gorilla Dave. The bther two were, strangers to him. Something evil hi the watchfulness of the.three chilled momentarily his veins. These fellows were the gun­ men of New York he .’had read about —paid assassins whose-business it w as to frame innocent men for the penitent tiary or kill them In cold blood. They were of the underworld, 'without con­ science and without honor. A soft step sounded in the corridor behind the man at the keyhole. He had not time to craWl aw ay nor even to rise before a m an stumbled against him. ! Clay had one big advantage. over his opponenL He had been given an instant of warning. His right arm went up around the neck of his foe and tightened there. His left hand turned the doorknob. Next moment the two men crashed Into the ropm together, the W esterner rising to his feet as they came, with the body of the other lying across his back from hip to shoulder. ' Gorilla Dave leaped to his' feet The other two gunmen, caught a t disad­ vantage a few : feet from- the table, dived for their automatics^ They were too late. Clay swung b is bpdy down­ ward from the w aist with- a quick, strw g Jerk. The man on his back shot heels over head as though- he had been .hurled from a catapult crashed face -up on . the table, and dragged it over with him In his for­ ward plunge to . the wall. : Before any one else could move or speak, Lindsay's gun was. o u t' “Easy -now.” H is voice w as a gentle drawl that carried a menace. “Lem- me be boss of the rodeo a while, - No, Gorilla, I wouldn’t play with .that club if I was you. Tm sure h—1-a-mile on this gunstuff. Drop it!” The last two words came sharp and crisp, for the big thug had telegraphed an un­ intentional warning of his purpose to dive at the m an behind the thirty- eight Gorilla Dave's fingers opened and the blackjack dropped from his hand to the floor. "For the love o’ Mike, who is this guy?” demanded one of the other men. “L)m the fifth member of our little! party,” explained Clay. “Wot t’ell do youse mean? And w hat's the big. idea in most killin’ the chief?” : The man who had been flung across the table turned over and groaned. Clay would have known that face among a thousand. It belonged to Jer7 ry Durand. “I came In a t the wrong door and without announcin’ myself," said the cattleman, almost lazily, the unhurried indolence of his m anner not shaken. “You see I wanted to be on tim e so as not to keep you waitin’. Tm Clay Lindsay.” The more talkative of the gunmen from the E ast side! flashed one look a t the two automatics lying on the Cut Off From the Street, Clay Took - to the Roof Again. floor beside, the overturned table. They might as well have been in Brazil for all the good they were to him. “Move over to the other side of the room, Gorilla, and join yore two friends,” suggested the m aster of cere­ monies. “And don’t make any mis­ take. If you do'you won’t have time to be sorry fo r it. I’ll ce’tainly shoot to kill." The big-shouldered thug shuffled over. Clay stepped sideways, watch­ ing the three gunmen every foot o^the way, kicked the automatics 1Uto the open, and took possession of them. He felt safer with the revolvers In his coat pocket, for they had been within reach of Durand, and that member of the party was showing signs of a re­ turn to active interest in the proceed- ings. “When I get you right ITl croak you. By G—d, I will,” swore the gang lead­ er savagely, nursing his battered head. “No big stiff from the bushes can run anything over on me.” “I believe you,” retorted Clay easily. “That is, I believe you're tellin’ me yore intentions straight There’s no' news In that to w rite home about. B ut you’d better make that if Instead of when. . This Is three cracks you’ve had at me and Tm still a right healthy rube.” “Don’t bonk on fool luck any more, n i get you sure,” cried Durand sourly. The gorge of the Arizonan rose. “Mebbeso. You’re a dirty dog, Jerry Durand. From the beginning you were a rotten fighter—in the ring and out of i t You and yore strong-arm men! Do you think ITn afraid of you be­ cause you surround yoreself with dips and yeggmen and hopnuts, all scum of the gutter and filth of the earth? Where I come from men fight clean and out in the open. They’d stomp you out like -a rattlesnake.” H e whipped open the door, stepped o u t closed it, and took the key from his pocket A moment, and he had turned the lock. Frdm within there came, a rush that shook the' panels. Clay was already busy searching for. Kitty. H e tore Open door after door, calling her loud­ ly by name. E v en in th e d ark n essh e could see that the rooms were empty of furniture. There ,was a crash of splintering panels, the sound of a bursting lock. Almost as though it were on echo of it came a heavy pounding upon- the street , door. Clay guessed that the thirty minutes were up and th at the Bunt ,was bringing the police. H e dived back Into one of the empty rooms just In time to miss a. rush of men pouring along the passage to the stairs. Cut off from .the street Cflay took to the roof again. It would not do for him to be caught In the house-by the police. He climbed the ladder, pushed his way through the trapdoor opening, and breathed deeply of the night air. But h e had no tim e to lose. Al­ ready he could hear the tram pling of feet up the stairs.to the second story. Lightly he vaulted the wall and to the roof door leading down to number 123. H e found it. latched. T ie eaves of the roof projected so far that he could not from there get a hold on the window casings below. Jtie made a vain circuit of the roof, then passed to the next house. Again he was ont of luck. The ten­ ants had made safe the entrance against prowlers of the night He knew that at any moment now the po­ lice might appear in pursuit of him. There was no time to lose. H e crossed to the- last house In the block—and found himself barred o u t As he' rose from his knees he heard the voices of men clambering through the scuttle to the roof. At the same time he saw that which brought him to instant action. It was a rope clothes­ line which ran from post to post, dan­ gling from one com er of the building to another and back to the opposite one.- No man in M anhattan’s millions knew the value of a rope or could handle one more expertly than this cattleman. His knife was open be­ fore he had reached the nearest post One strong slash of the blade severed IL In six long strides he was a t the second post unwinding the line. He used his knife a second tim e a t the third post W ith deft motions Clay worked swiftly. H e was fastening the rope to the chimney of the house. Every instant he expected to hear a voice raised In excited discovery of him crouched In the shadows. B ut his fingers were as sure and as steady as though he had minutes before him in­ stead of seconds. “There’s the guy—over by the chim­ ney.” Clay threw the slack of the line from the roof. H e had no time to test the strength' of -the rope nor its length. As the police rushed him he slid over the edge and began to lower himself hand under hand. The wide eaves protected him. A man would have to hang' out from the wall, above the ledge to see him. Clay’s'eyes'w ere oh the gutter above while he." jerked his way down a foot at a time. A face and part of a'body swung out into sight “We've got yuh. Come back, or TlI shoot,” 'a voice called down. A revolver showed against the black sky. The man from Arizona did not an­ swer and did not stop. H e knew that shooting from above is an art that few men have acquired. A bullet sang past his ear just as he swung in and crouched on the wihdow- SilL Another one hit the bricks Close to his head. The firing stopped. A pair of uni­ formed legs appeared dangling from the eaves. A body and a head fol­ low ed these. They began to descend jerkily. Clay took a turn at the gun-play. He fired his revolver into the air. The spasmodic jerking of the blue legs abruptly ceased. “Yuh’d better give up quietly. W e're bound to get yuh,” an officer shouted from the roof by way of parley. The cattleman did not answer ex­ cept by the smashing of glass. He had forced his way into two houses within the past hour. He was now busy breaking into a third. The window had not yielded to pressure, Thereforehe was knocking out the gloss with the butt of his revolver. H e crawled through the opening just as some one sat up in bed with a frightened exclamation. “Who—is—s—s—s it?” a masculine voice asked, teeth chattering. Clay had no time to gratify idle curiosity. He ran through the room, reached the head of the stairs and went down on the banister to the first floor. H e fled back to the rear of the house and stole out by the kitchen door. The darkness of the alley swallowed him, bnt he could still hear the shouts of the men on the roof and answering ones from new arrivals below. Five minutes later he w as on board a street car. H e was not a t all par­ ticular as to its destination. He want­ ed to be anywhere but. here. This neighborhood was getting entirely too active for him. CHAPTER IX , The Gangman Sees Red. Exactly thirty minutes after Clay had left him to break into the house, Johnnie lifted his voice In a loud wail for the police. H e had read some­ where that one can never find an officer when he Is wanted, but the BulI-of-Bashan roar of the cowpuncher brought them running from all direc­ tions. - Out of the confused explanations of the range-rider the first policeman to reach him got two lucid statements. “They’re white-slavin’ a straight g irt ThiAbusher says his pal w ent In to rescue her half an hour ago and hasn’t showed up since,” he told his a i W ith Johnnie bringing ■■ they made a noisy attack o door of Number 121.

H e could arpeal to the police, have Clay Lindsay arrested, arl get him sent up for a term on the charge of burglary. But he could & do it without the whole tale cemir; o u t One thing Jerry Durand cotM not stand was ridicule. His vanitr was one of his outstanding qualities, and he did not want it widely kmrau that the boob he had intended to mi had turned the tables on him. ms handled him, jeered at him and Wsei him in a room with his three Iter."- men. Johnnie Green chose this malaprop- - moment for reminding the oifleers the reason for the coming to fits house. “W hat about the young lady?" he asked solicitously. Durand wheeled on him. looked Kn over with an insolent, malevolent eye, and jerked a thumb In his direetha “Who is this guy?” “He’s the fellow tipped us off h;i r-d w as inside,” answered one of the ; trolmen. H e spoke in a whisper O 3 to the ear of Jerry. “Likely he kuoxs more than he lets on. Shall I make I pinch?” The eyes of the gang leader !ar­ rowed. “So he's a friend of this I-.-' ond-story bird, is he?” “Y’betcha!” chirped up JolmEir. “and I'm plumb tickled to take :: - dust, too.

The Psalmist said: ,“I was glad when they said unto me let us go unto the house of the Lord.” “Also, ‘ I had rather be a door keeper ia the house of my God than to dwell in the tents of » bkedness.” St. Paul says; “Let us consider one Br­ other to provoke unto love and to good works, not forsaking the assembling of oursel’ves together as the manner of some »»■” ... , The best place to rest on the Lord’s day is in the temple of the Lord, for there we not only find physical rest but spiritual life. A church going people are a God-fear ing people and blessed is that people whose God is the Lord. ’ ' The preachers need all the “Aarons and Hurs” of tbeir congregations to hold tip their hands and encourage them with their prayers.

W ashington. — Acceptance by the senate in passing the naval appro­ priation bill of the house enlisted per­ sonnel figure of 86,000 men, left- only the senate increases ■ am ounting to ibout $44,000^000 ,to be adjusted, by the conferees of the two houses. As put through the senate without a rec­ ord vote, the m easure carries a total appropriation of $295,450,000. The final day’s debate on the bill was marked by unsuccessful efforts to end American occupation of Haiti, the Dominion Republic and Nicaragua and to launch a congressional inves­ tigation of naval administration.

Hudson Loses CaseV- Atlanta, Ga. — Glenn M. Hudson, Daugherty county farm er, senten-ea to be hanged on conviction of the m urder of his two stepsons, was de­ nied a new trial. . _ The children, Robert and Isnlaa Item pie. nine and four years cld, were the sons of Mrs. BEdson by her first husband, who was Wiled in France. They were found dead on the porch' of Hudson’s farm house near Albany, Ga., last July and tho .state claimed he shot them because he did not w ant to suoDort them. > Herrin, Ills. — The death toll in the disaster, when 5,0P0 striking union m iners attacked the Lester strip mine, being operated under a guard of im­ ported workers, may run past, the Jtfty mark, it was said by those in touch with the situation, although thus far only 27 positively are known to be dead. In the H errin ,hospital are eight wouided men, only one a miner, and six of them are believed to be fatally Injured. There were nine, but one died. A m iner told the Associated Press correspondent that he had seen 15 bodies thrown into a pond with rocks around their necks. About 20 import- ed m iners are missing. Checking up the death list has prov­ ed almost impossible. The victims, all but three of them imported workers, so far as known, were found scat­ tered over an' area within several miles of. the mine. Some were lynch­ ed, some were burned when the mine was fired, others were beaten to death and the m ajority fell before the score of bullets poured into them. “Bloody W illiamson” county, so called because of several riots, was outwardly calm, but there was a no­ ticeable undercurrent which kept ev-- erybody on edge and wondering if fuy, ther trouble m ight be expected. ■ The correspondent talked with scores of m iners and about halt of them were certain there would be no further disorder if there was no at­ tem pt to reopen the mines, while the other half said they were afraid some of the m en m ight not be held back. Officially, the - situation was reported by county officials to be quiet. The scenes of death were very gruesome, as In a real war. Bodies, many with limbs shot away, lay along the roadside or were swung from trees, men wounded and dying were stretched out on the roads and in the fields, with none of the hun­ dreds ot passers-by able to lend £ hand. Attem pts to assist the wound­ ed in the early part of the day brought rebuffs from -the spectators, backed in some cases by drawn guns. L ater the feeling Quieted down and some of the wounded were taken to hospitals. It is understood that there will be no attem pt to reopen any of the mines until the strike is settled. When the attackers went over the top in the be- seiged mine there were some fifty or sixty workers and guards there. W hat has become of those not in the known dead and wounded list can not be said. Some of them were seen in fields run­ ning, with m iner sym pathizers pursu­ ing them, with guns. How many es­ caped could not be told. C. K. Mc­ Dowell, superintendent of the import­ ed workers at the mine, was among the dead.. It was said he was the first to be shot, after the mine was captured and that he was given no opportunity to escape. Hundreds of men, women and little children, some as young as four years old, surged through the morgue to view the bodies, which lay side by side on the floor, with no attem pt to straighten them out. Most of them bore no identification m arks. All were mangeld. [ WIND AND RAIN STORM SWEEPS OVER ATLANTA Atlanta, Ga.—Damage estim ated at several thousand dollars was done '.here by a teriffc wind and rain storm: that lasted for nearly an hour ‘Sunday. A tower on the Constitution building was struck by lightning- ..and bricks - scattered for msuiy yards over the street in front of the structure. The force of the wind uprooted trees in m any parts of the city and scattered limbs across wires, temporarily paralyzing the tele­ phone and lighting service. ____ Plate glass windows in several downtown store buildings were broken, while the heavy downpour flooded the basements of Wesley Memorial M ethodist church and a store building, causing consider­ able damage. The telegraph companies re­ ported their lines practically unim­ paired. GOES TO HOOSE CONFERENCE CARRIES APPROXIMATELY $£95,- 450,000 WITH PERSONNEL OF 86,000 MEN. Goes to House Conference; Haiti In­ vestigation and Useless Navy Yards Are Considered, British Marshal Assasjnated. London.—Field M arshal Sir Henry H. Wilson, one of England's m ost illus- trous soldiers, who was chief of the im perial. staff during the final stages of the world war, was assassinated on the doortep of. his residence in Baton Place by two young m en who gave the names of Jam es O’Brien and Jam es Connolly. The assassins had loitered about waiting an hour for his. return from unveiling a memorial to men of the Great E astern railway who fell in the w a r.. W hen he alighted from his mo­ tor car,_ Field M arshal W ilson walked up the steps, and' the men fired several sliots at him from close range, three of which took effect, one in the chest, one 'in the leg and the third in the wrist. The field m arshal died before he could be taken into the house. His horrified wife heard the shooting and rushed out to find Iier husband’s body, dressed In full uniform, lying in a pool of blood, w ith the sword which he had drawn to ineet his assailants by his Bide. Harding. Opposes Filipinos’- Appeal. W ashington. — President Harding told the members of the Philfpplne par­ liam entary commission that he could not yet urge upon, congress the desir- 'ability of Philipine independence. Members of the commission who called on the president a t his request to receive a reply to the independence petition presented last Friday, said the executive indicated that he was not unalterably opposed to Philippine au­ tonomy but regarded the m ater-as a suestlon of'tim e. r... W ashington.—The annual navy ap­ propriation bill, carrying approxi­ mately ¥295,450,000 and providirs for an enlisted'personnel of 86,000 men, was passed by the senate and sent to conference with the house. Action of the enlisted personnel, now about 115,000, is final as the sen­ ate accepted the house decision and the question will not come before the conferees, who will deal principally with the senate increases of about $44,000,000 over the house hill. There was no record vote on the final pas­ sage and no effort was made to re­ duce the enlisted personnel. Unsuccessful efforts to end Ameri­ can occupation of Haiti, the Domini­ can republic, Nicaragua and to launch a congressional investigation ot navy adm inistration marked the final day’s debate. An am endm ent offered by Senator King, democrat, Utah, pro­ viding for withdrawal of American m arines from the two republics and Nicaragua December 31 next, was re­ jected 42 to' 9, after a nearly all-day debate in which the American policy of American intervention was both attacked and defended. 'Investiga­ tion of naval administration was pro­ posed by Senator McCormick ,repub­ lican, Illinois, but his resolution drew objection from Dial, democrat. South Carolina, and was referred to the na­ val committee. It was contemplated a survey to abolish navy yards and stations, Sen­ ator McCormick declaring that there was, a navy Vpork barrel” and one- third of the establishments were un­ necessary.

W ashington.—The compromise pro­ gram of republican leaders to defer action on the soldiers’ bonus bill un­ til after the tariff m eascre has been disposed of was approved a t Si con­ ference of m ajority senators. ’ The vote was 27 to 11. At the sam e time the conference went on record as favoring final ac­ tion on the bonus before any recess of adjournm ent of congress. Before adjourning a resolution em­ bodying this program, the conference rejected, 30 to 9, a motion by Senator McCumber,. republican. North Dakota, to lay aside the tariff for action bn the bonus. Mt. McCumber, who' has charge of both pieces of legislation, then offer­ ed the compromise resolution. Despite the conference action there was an open fight In the senate to get the bonus bill up before the sen­ ate returns to consideration of the tariff measure, laid aside last week for the naval appropriation .bill. Sev­ eral senators - on both the republican leaders appeared confident that such a motion would be defeated. Fight Forest Fire. Albuquerke, N.

ShanghaL—Between 10,000 and 15,- men of the northern army sent against Sun Yat Sen’s arm y in Kiangsi province mutinied a t Kiangfu, burned portions of Kiangfu and other nearby cities and killed thousands of resi­ dents, according to. unconfirmed but apparently authentic reports from va­ rious sources a t Hankow and Nan- chang. The troops were under com­ mand of General Tsai Chen Hsun, m ilt, tary commander of Peking. The rebellious soldiers are reported m arching back northward and nearing Changshn Ki, a city about one hun­ dred miles north of Kiangfn and fifty miles north of Nanchang. A dispatch from Hankow says the British gunboat Cockchafer is-speed­ ing up the Kan river toward Nan­ chang to bring out the foreign resi­ dents. The American gunboat Mon- ocacy is coaling a t Kiukiang and will proceed to: Nanchang as soon as pos­ sible. The American gunboats Isabel and Quiros and the British gunboats Bee and Foxglove are held in readi­ ness at Kinkiang to rcsh to the dis­ turbed area, if necessary, to protect nationals. The situation at. Canton is qciet but ominous. Messages from adherents of Sun Yat Sen’s southern.govem m ent at Canton and Hong Kong say Sun has ordered his m ain force in Kiangsi to abandon the expedition against the north and return to Canton. Sun, Wu Ting Fang and other leaders of the Canton government are reported to be still aboard Chinese warships in the neighborhood of Canton, awaiting the return of the Kiangs iarmy. Urges Action o\i Shoals. W ashington.—Indications were giv­ en in the house that unrem itting pres­ sure would be exerted to bring about action on disposition of the govern­ m ent’s properties at Muscle Shoals, Ala. Representative Pou of North Caro­ lina, advocating from the house floor speedy action on acceptance of the offer of Henry Ford for the lease and purchase of the properties, dis­ closed that he had made a motion in the rules committee, of which he is a member, for a special order for consideration of the Muscle Shoals question by -the house but that the committee session was abandoned withoue action. The Muscle Shoals proposition has attracted almost as much attention throughout the country as the scbsidy bill,” said the N orth Carolina mem­ ber. "The democratic minority of the rules committee was earnestly in favor of considering the bill, but the repub­ lican m ajority walked out of the room.” ‘,You cannot sidestep the issue,” he declared, addressing the republi­ can side. " ‘You may take your recess (referring to the tentative plan of house leaders to begin a series of three-day, recesses about July I), but the time will come, and in not in the very distant fcture when the rules committee will not adjourn when Mus­ cle Shoals is brought before it.” Joyous Welcome Given Prince. London.—England gave an affection­ ate and joyous welcome to the Prince of W ales upon his return from his third imperial tour of the world. Lon­ don, which he left eight m onths ago, greeted him with a fervor and spon­ taneity befitting a royal am bassador from the empire returning from a se­ ries of diplomatic triumphs. Throughout his half hour ride from PaddiLgton station to Buckingham palace the prince was proclaimed by jubilant multitudes who showered cpon him salutations of affection and loyal­ ty. Although he has been the recipient of endless stirring ovations on prev­ ious occasions, the "prince was pro­ foundly affected by London’s ringing welcome, his pride -and gratitude showing through tears of joy.

SYNOPSIS.—A foreword tells this: Motoring through Arizona, a. party of easterners, father and daughter and a male companion, stop to wit­ ness a cattle round; up. The girl leaves the car and is attacked by ~a wild steer. A masterpiece of riding on the part of one of the cowboys saves her life. Then the story begins: Clay Llndsay.. range- rider on an Arizona ranch, an­ nounces his intention to visit the "big town," New York. On the train Lindsay becomes'interested in a young woman. Kitty Mason, on her way to New York to become a motion-plcture actress. She is marked as fair prey by a fellow (raveler, Jerry Durand, gang politi­ cian and ex-prize fighter. Perceiving his Intentions, Lindsay provokes a quarrel and throws Durand from the train. On his first day In New York Lindsay is splashed with wa­ ter by a Janitor. That individual the range-rider punishes summarily and leaves tied to a fire hydrant. A young woman who sees the oc­currence invites Clay Into her house and hides him from the po­ lice. Clay's "rescuer*' introduces herself as Beatrice Whitford. Lind­say meets her father, Colin Whit­ ford, and is Invited to visit them again. He meets Kitty Mason by accident. She has been disappointed In her at age aspirations, and to support herself Is selling cigarettes in a cabaret. ‘Clay visits her there. Kitty is insulted by a customer. Clay punishes the annoyer. After a lively mixup Lindsay escapes. Outside, he is attacked by Jerry Durand and a companion and beaten insensible. Lindsay's ac­ quaintance with Beatrice Whitford ripens. Through her he is intro­duced into "society." His "side partner" on the Arizona ranch. Johnnie Green, comes to the "big town." The two take an apartment together. Word comes that Kitty Mason is in trouble. Clay goes to the rescue and Is helped by Annie Mlllikan. He comes on a party of ‘gunmen." obviously waiting for his appearance. Lindsay "gets the drop" on the thugs, locks them in a room, and escapes. _ The Arizonan ran her up to his floor in the automatic elevator. "I’ve got a friend from home stayin’ with me. He’s the best-hearted fellow you ever. saw. You’ll sure lilte him,” he told her without stress as he fitted his key to the lock. In another mo­ ment Lindsay was introducing her casually to the embarrassed and as­ tonished joint proprietor of the apart­ m ent The Runt was eoatless and In his stockinged-feet. He had been playing a doleful ditty ‘ on a mouth-organ. Caught so unexpectedly, he blushed a beautiful brick red to his neck. “Heat some water, Johnnie, and make a good stiff toddy. Miss Kitty has been out in the rain.” He lit the gas-log and from bis bed­ room brought towels, a bathrobe, pa­ jamas, a sweater and woolen slippers. On a lounge before the fire he dumped the clothes he had gathered. He drew up the easiest armchair in the room. ' ‘Tm goin' to the kitchen to jack np Johnnie so he won’t lay down on his CHAPTER IX—Continued. But miracles are made possible by miracle-workers. The W esterner was a sixty-horse-power dynamo of energy. He felt responsible for Kitty and he gave liimself with single-minded devo­ tion to the job of discovering her. When Clay met Kitty at last it was quite by chance. As it happened, Bea­ trice was present at the time. He had been giving a box party at the Empire. The gay little group was gathered under the awning outside the foyer while the limousine that was to take them to Shanley’s for supper was being called. Colin Whitford, looking out into the rain that pelted down, ut­ tered an exclamatory ""By Jove!” Clay turned to him Inquiringly. “A woman was looking out of that doorway at us,” he said. “If she’s not In deep water I’m a bad guesser. thought for a moment she knew me or some one of us. She started to reach out her Iiands and then shrank back.” “Young or old?” asked the cattle­man. “Young—a girl.” \ “Excuse me.” The host was off In an Instant, almost on tlie run. But the woman had gone, swallowed In the semidarkness of a side street Clay followed. Beatrice turned to her father, eye­ brows lifted. TIiere was a moment’s awkward silence. - Mr, Lindsay will be back pres- ently,” Whitford said. “We’ll get in and w aif for !iim out of the way a lit­ tle farther up the street.” '' Wlien Clay rejoined them he talked In a low voice with Beatrice’s father. The mining man nodded, agreement and Lindsay turned to the others. ‘Tm called away,” he explained aloud. “Mr. Whitford has kindly prom­ ised to play host In my place. I’m right sorry to leave, but it’s urgent.' His grave smile asked' Beatrice to be charitable in her flndings. The eyes she gave him were coldly liostile. He knew Beatrice did not and would not understand. The girl was waiting where CIav had left her, crouched, against a base­ ment milliner’s door under the shelter of the steps. ■ : ■ . I"- 1 ve looked for yon everywhere,” moaned the girl, “it’s beeii—avvfui.” “I know, but it’s goln’ to be all right now, Kitty,” he comforted. “You’re goin’ home with me tonight. Tomor­ row we'll talk it all over’V.; He tucked an arm under hers and led her along the \veti shining street to a taxicab. She croticiiid >ih a cor- ner of the cab, her body shaken with . sobs. . , ____; Tlie young. matt mo'vt^vcloser and A StIj0-nS^Sfift arouiid'iher ghonl- dertt “Don’t ybif woffy.ifiitty. Yore big brother is oil the jpb hpw.” He knew her ,story" noty in jts essen- t'als as well -as he did later'when she wept, it out to iiiin in confession. And because she was who she was. born to lean on a stronger will, he acquitted her of blame. The Runt Was Coatless and In His . Stockinged-Feet job,” he told her cheerily. “You take yore time and get into these' dry clothes. We’ll not disturb you till you knock.” ' When her timid knock came her host brought in a steaming cup. “You Mrink this.. It’ll warm you good.” “What is it?” shq asked shyly. “Medicine,” he smiled. “Doctor’s or­ ders.” While she sipped the toddy JohnilIe brought from ,the kitchen a tray upon which were tea, fried potatoes, hum, eggs, and buttered toast. The girl ate ravenously. It was an easy guess that she had n'bt before tasted food that day. Clay kept up a flow of talk, mostly about Johnnie’s culinary triumphs. Meanwhile he made up a bed on the couch. Once she looked up at him, her throat swollen with emotion. “You’re good.” Sho! We been needin’ a HT sister to brace up our manners for us. It's lucky for us I found you. Now I ex­ pect you’re tired and sleepy. We fixed up yore bed in here because it’s warm­ er. You’ll be able to make out with it all right. The springs are good.” Clay left her with a cheerful smile. 'Turn out the light before you go to bed. Miss Colorado. Slgep tight. AUd don’t you worry. You’re back with oiq home folks again now. you know.” Tired out from tramping the streets without food _ and drowsy from the toddy she had taken, Kitty fell into deep a'eep undisturbed by troubled dreams. The cattleman knew he had found her in the nick of time. She had told him that she had no money, no room In which to sleep, no prospect of work. Everything she had except the clothes on her back had been pawned to buy food and lodgings. But she was young and resilient. When she got back' home to the country where she be­ longed, time would obliterate from her mind the experiences of which she had been the victim. It was past midday when Kitty woke. She found her clothes dry. After she dressed she opened the door that led to the kitchen. Johnnie began to bustle about in preparation for her breakfast. “Please don’t trouble, n i eat what you’ve got cooked,” she begged. “It’s'n o tronble. ma’nm. Te f CHAPTER X Johnnie Makes, a Joke, As Kitty stepped from the cab she was trembling violently: "Don’t you be frlghteend, ill pard- ner. You’ve come home. There won't anybody hurt you here,” no tronble, ma’am. If the’s a thing on I earth I enjoy doin’ it’s sure cookin’. Do you like yore- aigs sunny side up or turned?” Eitlier way. Whichever you like. Mr. Green.” " While she ate he waited on her so­ licitously. Inside,'he was a river o f tears for her, but with it went a good deal of awe. Even now, wan-wed and hollow-cheeked, she was attractive. In Johnnie’s lonesome life he bad never before felt so close to a girl as he did to 'th ls one.' “I—-I don’t like to -be so much bother to you,” she said. “Maybe I can go away this, afternoon.” - “Not ma’am, jve won't have that a- tafl,” broke In the range-rider alarm. “We’re plumb tickled to have yon here. Clay, he feels thataway too.” ‘T could keep bouse for you while stay,” she suggested timidly. “I know how to cook—and the place does need cleaning.” “Sure it does. Say, wha’s the m atter with you bein’ Clay’s sister, jes’ got in last night on the train? Tha’s the story w eil put up to the landlord if you’ll gimme the word.” Johnnie told the story of the search for her, with special emphasis on the night Clay broke into three houses in answer to ■ her advertisement. “I never wrote it. I never thought of that. It must have been—” “It was that scalawag Durand, y’betcha. I ain’t still wearin’ my pin­ feathers none. He was sore because Clay had fixed bis clock proper.' “I’ve got no place to go, except back home—and I’ve got no folks there but a second ,cousin. She doesn’t want me. I don’t know what to do. If I had a woman friend—some one to tell me w hat was best—” Johqnie slapped his hand on his knee,, struck by a sudden inspiration. “Say! Y’betcha, by jollies, Tve got ’er —the very one! You’re d—n—you’re sure whlstlin’. We got a lady friend, Clay and me, the finest Uttle pilgrim In New York. She’s sure there when the gong strikes. You’d love her. I’ll fix It for you—right away. I got to go to her house this afternoon an’ do some chores. I’ll bet she comes right over to see you.” K itty was doubtful. “Maybe we bet­ ter wait and speak to. Mt. Lindsay about it,” she said. “No, ma’am, you don’t know' Miss Beatrice. She’s the best friend. Why, I shouldn’t wonder but that she and Clay might get m arried one o’ these days. He thinks a lot of her.” “O h!” Kitty knew just a little more of human nature than the puncher. “Then I wouldn’t tell her about me if I was you. She wouldn’t like my bein’ here.” Sho! You don’t know Miss Beatrice. She grades ’way up. TH bet she likes you fine.” When Johnnie left to go to work that afternoon he took with him a res­ olution to lay. the whole case before Beatrice Whitford. She would fix things all right. If there was one per­ son on earth Johnnie could bank on without fall it was his little boss. *. * * * + . » • It was not until Johnnie had laid the case before Miss- W hitford and restat­ ed it under the impression that she could not have understood that his con­ fidence ebbed. H e had expected an eager' interest, a quick" enthusiasm. Instead, he found In his young mis­ tress s spirit beyond his understand­ ing. H er manner had a touch of cool disdain, almost of contempt, while she listened to his tale. She asked no-questions and made no comments. W hat he had to tell met with chill silence. . Johnnie’s guileless narrative had made d ear to her that Clay had brought Kitty home about midnight, had mixed a drink for her, and had given her his own clothes to replace her wet ones. Somehow the cattleman’s robe, pajam as and bedroom slippers obtruded unduly from his friend’s story. Even the Runt felt this. He began to perceive himself a helpless medium of wrong impressions. “I suppose you know that when the manager of your apartm ent house finds out she’s there he’ll send her pack­ ing.” So Beatrice summed up when she spoke at last. “No, mn’am, I reckon' not: You see we done told him she is Clay’s sister jes’ got in from the West,” the punch­ er explained. Oh11 see.” She girl’s Iip curled and her cleSiPeut chin lifted a trifle. “You don’t seem to have overlooked any­ thing. No, I don’t think I care to have anything to do with your arrange­ ments.” Beatrice turned and walked swiftly into the house. A pulse of auger was beating in her soft throat. S liefelt a sense of outrage. To Clay Lindsay she had given herself generously in spirit. She had risked something in introduc­ e s him to her friends. They might have laughed at him for his slight so­ cial lapses. Theym lght have rejected him for his lack of background. They had done'neither. H e was,so genuine­ ly a man. that he had won his way in­ stantly. Pacing up and down her room, little fists clenched, her soul In passionate turmoil. Beatrice went over it all again as she-had done through a sleepless night She had given him so much, and he bad seemed to give her even more. Hours'filled with a keen-edged delight jumped to her memory, hours that had carried her away from the falseness of social fribble to dean, wind-swept, open spaces of the m inj And a f te r m s - a f te r he had tacitly her claim on h im -h e had insulted her before Ser friends by de- T1T ts t0 So off with this S for: ^ P e n d i n g weeks to Not for a moment did she Jd m l t. perhaps she did.net know. th£t aT ln tier being, thing primitive stirred 'iier—a flare of feminine ferocity. She felt hot to the ktouch, an active volcano ready for eruption- If only she could get a chance to "strike back in a way that would hurt, to wound him as deeply as he had her! P at to her desire came the oppor­ tunity. Clay’s card w as brought in to her by Jenkins. ‘T ell Mr. Lindsay PU see Mm In a few minutes.” she told the man. The few minutes stretched to a long quarter of an hour before she descend­ ed. As soon as his eyes fell on her, Clay knew that this pale, slim girl in the close-fitting gown w as a stranger to him. H er eyes, star-bright and burn­ ing like Uve coals, warned him that the friend whose youth had run out so eagerly to meet his was bidden deep In her today. ' “I reckon I owe you and Mr. W hit­ ford an apology,” he said. “No need to tell you how I happened to leave last night. I expect you know.” Why take the trouble? I think I understand." She spoke in an even, schooled voice that set him a t a dis­ tance. “Your friend, Mr. Green,- has carefully brought me the details I didn’t know.” Clay flushed.- H er clear voice carried an edge of scorn. “You mustn’t judge by appearances. I know you wouldn’t be unfair. I had to take her home and look after her.” ‘I don’t quite see why—unless, of course, you wanted to,” the girl an­ swered. tapping the arm of her chair with impatient finger-tips, eyes on the clock. “But, of course, it isn’t neces­ sary I should see.” H er cavalier treatm ent of him did not affect the gentle imperturbability of the westerner. “Because Tm a white man, because she's a little girl who came from my country and can’t hold her own here, because she was sick and chilled and starving. Do you see now?” ‘No, but it doesn’t matter, rm "hot the keeper of your Conscience, Mr. Lindsay,” she countered with bard lightness. “You’re judging me just the same. If you’d let me bring her here to see you—” “Nb, thanks.” “You’re unjust.” - - “You think so?” “And unkind. That’s not like the little friend I’ve come to—Iikb sc much.” “You’re kind enough for two, Mr. Lindsay. She really doesn’t need an­ other friend so long as she has you,” she .retorted with a flash of contemptu­ ous eyes. “In New York we’re not used to being so kind to people of her sort.” Clay lifted a hand. “Stop right there. Miss Beatrice. You don’t want to say anything you’ll be sorry fog£ ‘TH say this,” she cut back. “The men I know wouldn’t invite a woman to their rooms at midnight and pass her off as their sister—and then ex­ pect people to know hSr. They would be kinder .to themselves—and to their own reputations.** “Will you tell me w hat else there was to do?

And just before night a girl on a pinto came down the side of that uncurried hill round a bend and got me. She took me to a cabin hidden in the bot­ tom of a canon and looked after me four days. H er father, a prospector, had gone to Tucson for supplies and we were alone there. She fed me, nursed me, and waited on me. We di­ vided a one-room twelve-by-sixteen cabin.

Report on Fish Industry. The A nual report of the commis­ sioner of labor and'printing will car­ ry figures dealing with the fishing in­ dustry In North Carolina this year, som ething that it has not touched on in. m any years now. The fisheries business is again becoming one of the bigger industries of the state and the commissioner believes the figures relating to this industry will be of a great deal of interest. This is especially true in view of- the fact that there is an awakening public interest In the fishing business since the governor and the fisheries commis­ sion are helping to stim ulate interest in this once big industry In North Car­ olina. It again promises to become one of the biggest of the natural in­ dustries in N orth Carolina. The fish commission is planting m any thousand bushels of oysters in the ,w aters of E astern Carolina, this year and this together with other work of this na­ ture to be carried on every year now,, will help revive, the oyster business In this state. t The governor will present the m at­ ter of resuscitating the fisheries- to the next session of the legislature, and the figures the departm ent, is collect­ ing will give the members of the leg­ islature correct inform ation about the business for which they will be asked to appropriate money. / iTo Help Tobacco Farmers.

Whiteville.—People who are suppos­ ed to be acquainted with conditions say that hardly more than- six hundred bales of cotton will be produced in this county this year. Normally the crop is seven or eight thousand bales. Last year as a result of reduction in the acreage and the activities of the boll weevil slightly less than four thousand bales were produced. This year there was a still greater reduc­ tion In acreage far over that of last year, and on top of that the boll we&vil is already here by the thou­ sands. Conductor Killed By Train. Wilmington.—D. M. Easterling, yard conductor for the Atlantic Coast Line Railroad Company for the past fif­ teen years or longer and one of the most popular men In the employ of the company here, was instantly kill­ ed when he tell between his train and ' waB cut in two by the heavy car trucks between the branches of the river in the vicinity of Navassa. Death was Instantaneous. The re mains were brought to the city shourtly and turned ever to the undertaker to be prepared for burial. Elizabeth-City. — Between $750,000 and $1,000,000 will have poured into the.pockets of potato growers and: brokers of this -section when the 1922 early Irish potato crop has been har­ vested the last of June, according to estim ates given by S. G. Scott, one Of the city’s leading brokers. Mr. Scott bases his estim ate on present indications that the season’s shipments from' ElizabetJi C ity. will reach a total of .1-100 cars, or close to 250,000 barrels, and figures the re­ turn to the grow e.i, after corn,... .sion and freight charge, have been deduct­ ed, at a little over three d ^,.ars a bar­ rel. Shipments over the Norfolk South- Srn railroad from Elizabeth City through Tuesday totaled 850 cars, or 170,000 barrels of potatoes. 'O f these, just about 400 cars, or 80,000 barrels, came by w ater over the North River line from Weeksvillo, various points in Currituck county and Old Trap and Shiloh, in Camden county The Currituck crop, in the opinion of J. B; Baker, auditor of the North River line, is three-fourths shipped; and-the next few days of favorable weather will see it practically cleaned up. The Pasquotank crop, it i9 indicated, since the setback of bad weather early this weak, will not be entirely moved be­ fore the first of July. Rural Carriers' Convention July 3-4. Shelby—President H.

A number of social courtesies will be extended the visitors, and it is ex­ pected that this will be the largest convention the North Carolina carriers have ever had. Universal Rule to Plant In Time to Se­ cure Good Growth Before Freez­ ing Weather—Of Especial Value to Truck era. (Prepared by the Cnlted States Department .of Agriculture.) Planting cover or green manure! crops is a m atter which requires at­ tention it. September in most parts of the United States, says Iihe United States Department of Agriculture. ' Clover, vetch, and other legumes serve the triple purpose of adding humus to the soil, accumulating '-ni­ trogen, and preventing soil eroslom With some tender berry and fruit crops they also serve to protect the roots from severe winter weather. Out­ side of the nitrogen-forming plants, rye is largely used as a cover crop sown in the fall and plpwed under In the spring to' add Organic m atter to the soil. . The cover-crop problem varies ,.largely with locality, but for over­ winter purposes there is one rule which is universal, and that' Is to get the crop in the ground In tim e to secure good growth before freezing weather. A Practice of Long Standing. The use of clover or some other legume to enrich the soil Is generally considered a cardinal argricultural practice In the humid sections of the United States. It. antedates by three- fourths of a century the monumental discovery that legumes store up nitro­ gen from the air. The belief that' clover was a valuable improver rested first on experience, apd later experi­ ence was substantiated by the dis­ covery of the relation between the legumes and the nodule bacteria. Other legumes, as the cowpea, the Japan clover and bur clover in the South, and crimson clove? on the At­ lantic coast, have come Into .use in the territory, not well- adapted to red Clover. The various vetches are held In widespread favor, different varie­ ties being employed according to cli­ mate and crop conditions. - The time of planting and the best crop to use is a m atter which local conditions must dictate. Along the Underground Distillery is Found. Kinston.—MoonshineTs In the Squir­ rel Creek section established their dis­ tillery in an underground cave, accord­ ing to the police here. These said fed­ eral raiders discovered the subterra­ nean hootch factory. The “dug-out” was nearly 20 feet square, and had been painstakingly equipped and cam­ ouflaged. The top of the smoke­ stack was level with the ground. The entrance was carefully concealed. How the place was found was not revealed. According to the police reports the operators were not apprehended, but a quantity of "beer” was found in the place. Several years ago a dug-out lined with masonry was found at a pp^nt near this city, reputed to have been used for an illicit distililng enter­ prise. Policeman Not Guilty of Murder. Burlington. — The trial of D. B. Oakes, former Greensboro police­ man, charged with m urder in the sec­ ond degree, for the killing of Thomas Robertson, near Reidsville, May 4, 1921, ended in Alamance supreme court at Graham when a jury returned a verdict of not guilty. An array of witnesses testified, in­ cluding Oakes, who occupied the stand one hour. Attorneys Ivey of Rocking ham, representing the state, and Par­ ker of Graham, representing the de­ fendant, addressed the jury. Judge W. P. Bynum. Greensboro, spoke on behalf of the defendant. Ar­ gument for the state was closed by Solicitor Gattis, HillBboro. Each at­ torney consumed one hour. Judge J. H. Kerr, presiding, charged the jury. The jury was given the case at 12:30, a, verdict being reached within two hours. .Picture Men In Annual Meet. Asheville.—Selection of Greensboro as the-next meeting place, re-election of the present officers and launching of plans for a southern association of motion, picture owners featured the closing session of the annual conven­ tion of the Motiofi Picture Theater Owners of North Carolina. } Definite plans tor the southern or­ ganization will be worked out by a special committee appointed by Percy Wells, president of the state body, and will be formulated at a meeting in 1923, at which tim e all state organiza­ tions will be asked to group their an­ nual conventions. $75,000 Voted Fer Schools. Duke. — "With only two votes cast against it, the special school bond election of the. Duke school district was carried by an overwhelming ma­ jority. Serial bonds to' the amount of $75,000 were voted. In addition to the above, a special tax .of 30 cents was voted for maintenance. The new edi­ fice will have 18 rooms, including; a room for domestic science and lab­ oratory work. It will have an audito­ rium with a seating capacity of 900, a modern heating system, and will he easily, ventilated.

In the extreme North hairy vetch Is favored, as a legume cover, or green manure crop, but rye is also largely planted’. Prom middle Pennsylvania- to the north Alabama line crimson clover gives good results. In the extreme South bur clover, vetch, and crimson clover are used, as well a3 velvet beans and cowpe'as. Broadcasting Seed Is Favored. Methods with cover crops vary great­ ly. In the South they are customarily: sowed between rows of cotton at the last picking. It is also common te- sow the winter crop between com rows before harvest. W herever clean cultivation ,is practiced the soil Is likely to be in shape for broadcast­ ing the seed. If convenient, it can be harrowed In. In orchards a light har­ rowing or disking may be employed if the ground is free from sod. Care must, of course, be taken not to injure the rdots. The crop is usually plowed under in the spring, but this is not al­ ways done with orchards. Data col­ lected In all parts of the Uiilted States shows a general benefit from this form of agriculture. Cover crops are of especial value to small gardeners and truckers, who often find it both difficult and ex­ pensive to obtain stable manure. They add the humus which is so necessary to maintain a good physical condition of the soiL Some Cities Have Erected Sheds Along Street Curbs—Supplementary Agencies to Assist In Effi­ cient Distribution. Open retall m arkets constitute the sitnplest and least ’expensively oper­ ated of all types of public markets. In its simplest form a market of this type may be.' merely a designated length of curb, a section of a broad street,- a vacant lot, where, under slight supervision, farm ers may group their wagons and sell to consumers. . In its highest development such a m arket may consist of a paved tract with raised walks covered with sub­ stantial sheds to protect teams, wares, buyers, and sellers from the weather. The shed may even be of a type th at In bad w eather may be made practical­ ly into , an enclosed building by the use of rolling doors. A few cities have ejected sheds along street curbs for the protection of open markets, but for the most, part curb m arkets are unprotected and sheds are constructed Only In markets situated on special m arket tracts. The essential feature of a retail m arket is the restriction ot purchases to consumers as distinguished from Open- Retail Markets Benefit Both Buyer and Producer.. dealers. Such a Oiarketr If it I® a “producers' market,” furnishes am op­ portunity for direct dealing between producers and consumers:. Open re­ tail markets may also admift hucksters, or wagon, and push-cart peddlers as salesmen. These dealers are usually admitted' under certain- restrictions; The United: States Departm ent of Agriculture has given m uch attention to the subject o f public markets; their ,establishment and . operation, as an economical- and- satisfactory meeting place for the- country producer and the city buyer:. A new Department Bulletin, ,No1 1002; entitled “Open Types of Public Markets;” i» nosv available fo r distribution, and copies may be had free by writing to the- De­ partm ent of Agriculture, Washington, D, C. The bulletin- discusses the function of public markets; their ownership and control, establishment and operation. It says that-public m arkets are not agencies to. replace-'-other m eans of distribution of farm produce—they are supplementary agencies to aid, under favorable conditions, in efficient dis­ tribution. BEES ARE VERY. PROFfTABLE Common Money Gatherer la by Far ' Best Carrier of Ifallen-Scatter Through QrchardL The- common lmnoy bee is by fur the best carrier of pollen and it will pay the fruit grower to keep bees, even though he may not care to go into the honey business- Bees, how­ ever, are a very profitable ride-line for the orehardist, especially If al­ falfa fields are available to work on after- the blooming season of fruit has passed. About one.hive of bees to on acre of bearing orchard should be provided. ETeferably the hives should be scat­ tered as widely as possible throughout the orchard during the blooming sea­ son. Experiment and experience have shewn that little, reliance can be placed on the efficacy of wind and of Insects other than the honey hee in effecting the transfer of pollen': from flee to tree, 'or in fact from flower to flower. PROBLEMS OF AVERAGE FARM One of the^.Most Important ’is to Ar­ range Work to Obtain : Profit , From -Each Department To arrange the work of the farm so th at each department can be made to turn a. profit is one of the important problems of the average farm. Where silos are added Ip the farm buildings a change of farm management must follow. Less hay is needed, less land is required for pasture, more stock Caia be., kept on the-land, more land must be used for corn, or-at least.sufficient com must be planted to fill the silo. ffiss labor Is required to , feed the stock, but more. must, be provided dur­ ing the short ’seascn of siloi filling. SUCKERS OH OORM HARMLESS Many Farmers Have’ Mistaken Idea That Earless Stalks Are Hin­ drance to Growth. Many farm ers are possessed with the idea that the suckers or earless stalks which grow from an ear-bray­ ing stalk of corn, are a hindrance to the best growth of the latter; and valuable hours are sometimes spent removing them. But experi­ ments during two successive years on Nebraska farm s demonstrated that corn with the suckers left undisturbed outyielded that from which the suck­ ers had been removed. Their leaves, like the others, would seem to per­ form useful office In absorbing nu­ tritive elements from the atmosphere for the benefit- of the ear on the main stalk. j - H ad Your Iron Today?

AN EXAMPLE OF GOODYEAR VALlE The 30 x Goodyear Cross Rib Tire shown here alongside its companion, the 30 x 3 K Goodyear All-Weather Tread Clincher, is a conspicuous example of Goodyear value. 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 long- wearing tread, and it sells fo r considerably less money. Li the past five years more than 5,000,000 of these Goodyear Cross Rib Tires have been sold. They have everywhere given re m a rk a b le service. Their fine performance and known value have convinced thousands of motorists of the folly of buying unknown and unguar* anteed tires of lower price.
