(Copyright, 1917.) WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN THE TRENCHES, Nov. 6.— When this dispatch arrives’ the 2 United States will have known that. the Germans have raided our ‘trenches, killing three, wounding five and capturing 12 Americans. Americans will know that as war goes it was a small and unimpor- tant affair... sut they should know certain other things that the army / here knows. The raid has been exceedingly valuable to us. Aside from the fact that we have had our first taste of real fighting, we know that our troops are the real thing, possessed of the finest courage and fighting ability. And we krow from our own experience what sort of enemy we are fighting. As for our. soldiers, they were splendid. The absolute truth is that fewer. than 40 Ameri- cans were attacked by 210 Ger- mans after being pounded for half an hour by intense shell fire that smashed the trenches in many places. ' Outnumbered Vive to One. But these 40 put up a game fight, worthy of Americans, battling in the darkness, oulnumbered five to one. Though we had losses, so did the Germaus. The Americans fought them every minute, using rifles, grenades, by- onets andirevolvers, und there were incidents such as should thrill the United States with pride fron: . the Atlantic to the Pacific. There was one soldier from East St. Louis who was buried for hours by a shell explosion, while another man from Kansas, laboring to dig his comrade out, was knocked down three times by shell concussion, but kept on digging even when ordered into a dugout by his Lieutenant, kept on digging until he was finally joined by his commander and the two worked until they got out the man. The Lieutenant was knocked down | J amination. ‘estimate made at division headquar-_ ters.

Charles J. Henninger, editor of the St. Louis County Herald of Wells- ton, and A. Jablonski, a florist of Olivette, were released on personal bonds of $1000 each late yesterday afternoon, following their arrest, as told exclusively in the Post-Dis- on an article written by Jablonski and published in Henninger’s paper last Thursday. _The article asserted “the money men wanted this war to make bar- rels of money out of it.’’ It also as- sailed William J. Bryan for offering his services in, the war, after first’ being opposed to it. Senator Stone also was criticised for supporting war measures after their passage. though opposed to them when they were up for action in Congress. Henninger said that, although he published the article, he did not read it untrl after it was printed. Jablon- ski confined his statement to the dec- laration that “everyone makes mis- talkes.”’ ee eee 30 QUARTS OF MILK SOLD- AT COMMISSION STATION Boy Travels 32 Blocks by Strect Car, Arrives 1'.

Thirty quarts of milk were sold to- day at the first community distribut- ing station, resulting from the agita- tion for cheaper milk for the poor,,. at the St. Louis Pure Milk Commis- sion, 1716 North Nineteenth street, where bottled milk will be sold daily at 10 cents a quart. The price deliv- ered by wagon is 13 cents a quart. The station was open from 8 to 12 o'clock, but one small boy was there at 6:30, having covered a distance of 32 blocks by street car to purchase three quarts. J. P.

ITALIAN WOMAN CALMILY TELLS HOW SHE RILLED RIVAL Mrs. Randazzo Intercepted Tele- phone Message to Her Hus- band and Kept Appointment. STABBING ON _ STREET Loaded Revolver Found at Scene Said to Have Been Carried by Slain Woman. Mrs. Peter Randazzo, 42 years old, mother of two small children, and wife of a butcher at 803 Carr street, today at the Carr Street Police Sta- tion told Post-Dispatch reporter her story of the stabbing to death by her yesterday afternoon of Mrs. John Jammarinaro, 28, of 806 North Ninth street, at Eighth street and Franklin avenue. “I was in the butcher shop when a clerk from the drug store across the street said someone wanted to speak to my husband on the tele- phone,” she said. “I suspected it was Mrs. Jammarinaro and sent Vito Marino of 1114 North Ninth street, a friend of our family, to answer the phone. a Planned to E lope. “{ stood by him when he talked. Mrs. Jammarinaro thought she was talking to my husband. .When Ma- rino finished talking to her he told me she said: ‘Come on over to Tenth and Franklin and meet me. We will leave the city together right away. It has come a time when you must die or I shall die.’ “I decided to kill her and went back to the butcher shop and got a big knife. When I reached Tenth and Franklin I saw her coming out of a jewelry store. I didn’t give her any chance. I just walked up be- hind her and caught her by the hair with my left hand and began to stab at her back and head with the knife in my right hand. “When she fell I threw the knife down and walked slowly up the street until @ policeman caught up with me and arrested me. That’s all there was to it.” | Revolver Near Body. Near Mrs. Jammarinaro’s body was found a handbag containing a loaded revolver. It has not been identified as her property, but Max Brownstein of 825 Franklin avenue told the police he knew that Mrs. Jammarinaro had a loaded revolver in her bag. In the pocketbook with the re- volver was a letter from Randazzo, written in Italian, which the police will have translated. Randazzo was told of the killing by Marino, who met him soon after- ward on Franklin avenue. Police- men did not find him last evening, but he was arrested at his shop this morning, taken to the Carr Street Station and questioned about his ac- quaintance with Mrs. Jammarinaro Before his arrest Randazzo’ said to a Post-Dispatch reporter: “She called. me up and my wife got after her. She had called me up four or five times.’’ A man who viewed the body of the woman at the morgue said he was her husband and that her name was Jennie Bongga.

Justice of the Peace E. E. Clark of East St. Louis dismissed a charge of selling liquor on Sunday against Al Wallace, a saloon keeper, 624 Collinsville avenue, this morning, without hearing the evidence. Wal- lace was arrested at 1:30 a. m. Sun- day, Oct. 28. Police reported they found 10 men drinking in his place. Wallace's license was revoked by Mayor Moliman. Justice Clark said City -Attorney Drury recommended to him last night that the case be dismissed. Drury told a Post-Dispatch reporter he did not ask for dismissal of the case. He said Wallace appeared in court this morning without an attor- rey. Drury asked for a continuance of the case, he said. Justicg Clark would not ‘continue the case, but dis- missed it, according to Drury. The police were not called to testify. WILD PEACE RUMORS CURRENT ON DUTSH STOCK EXCHANGE Reported That Central Powers Be- fore December Would Propose Preparatory Conference at LONDON, Nov... 6.—An’* Amster- dam dispatch says wild peace rumors were current on the Bourse there yesterday, it being reported ‘that the central Powers would make offers of peace before December in -the shape of a proposal for a pre- _paratory conference at Berne.

In view of the July and October happenings, the major- ity leaders were convinced of .the hopelessness of the situation. “Through the chief of the civil cabinet they imparted their convic- tlons to the crown, urging the im- perative need of a co-ordinated, co- hesive governmental policy in foreign and domestic issues and harmonious governmental collaboration with the Reichstag during the war at least.” Herr Erzberger then told how Count von Hertling reserved his de- cision to accept the chancellorship until he had conferred with the party leaders. On the advice of the latter, the Emperor's plan for separating the chancellorship and the presidency of the Prussian ministry, he said, had been dropped. Foreign Minister von Kuehlmann had also participated in the confer- ences, Herr Erzberger declared, urg- ing the need of instituting a parlia- mentary procedure because it was the only solution of the crisis and be- cause of the unfavorable impression that would be made abroad if the current attempt failed to succeed. Dr. von Kuehlmann is desirous that the outside world should know that a new political era has set in im Germany—that his intercession was not in vain, as it was decided to take parliamentarians into re- sponsible positions, continued Herr Erzberger. “I desire Centrist leader, the majority leaders arid Chancellor von Hertling in compléte working harmony in foreign and domestic issues, but that the pact has the full sanction of the Emperor, whvu has given Count von Hertling a free hand.” The Clerical party now has. the Chancellor and the Progressives, in all probability, will be awarded the post of Vice Chancellor and one oth- er important secretaryship, while the National-Liberals will be represented in the vice presidency of the Prus- sian Cabinet. to say,” concluded the Socialists to Support New Govern- ment if It Carries Out Promises.

The support of the Socialists also was conditioned, he said, on the car- rying out by the Government of a clear and firm foreign policy in fur- therance of everything compatible with Germany’s honor and future for the attainment of a speedy and last- ing peace. Otherwise, said Herr Scheidemann, the Socialists would fight the new Government as they had fought the Michaelis regime. Once equal rights in Prussia were granted and control of the Reichstag majority over the make-up of the Government and its policy were es- tablished—-developments which were springing into being before their eyes -——-there would be no excuse, Herr Scheidemann declared, for refusing to negotiate peace with Germany on the pretext that it was ruled auto- cratically. The fear of the progressive ele- ments in Germany that they may have been cheated in their bargain- ing with Chancellor von Hertling and Foretgn Secretary von Kuel l- mann for a government of a more parliamentary nature. is plainly evi- dent in this morning’s German news papers. The new administration, they find, is seriously considering letting the post of Vice Chancellor die with the retirement of Dr. Karl Helfferich, should his resignation be accepted, instead of filling it with Deputy von Payer or another radical imnember of the Reichstac. Deputy Ebert, president of the Socialist group in the Reichstag, called upon Chancellor von Hertling Sunday ats to remind him that the Socialists had made it a condi- tion of their support that a radical’ Deputy be taken into both the Im- pertal Cabinet and the Prussian Cab- inet. Vorwaerts, the Socialist organ, to- day takes a firm stand against any legerdemain with the ministerial posts. It declares that the Socialist party, while renouncing offices for itself. considers the appointment of radical Deputies to leading posts in the imperial and state governments absolutely necessary. The appointment of Herr Fried- berg, leader of the National Lib- erals, to the vice presidency of the Prussian Ministry, on the other hand, is now a settled fact. Herr Frie:- berg conferred with the. Chancellor on Sunday and it is understood he ac- man Socialist leader, said his party | cepted the post. BOILER EXPLOSION AT BADEN PLANTS CUTS WATER SUPPLY i Two Firemen Scalded, One of Them Severely: Speedy Repairs to Re- store Pressure. Two stationary firemen were scalded and the city water supply was interrupted by the explosion of an inner tube in a boiler at the city waterworks pumping station at Ba- den. in North St. Louis, at 11:30 this morning. The injured men were Patrick Brogan of 3617 Cass avenue and George Ripper of 7722 Michigan av- enue. all over the body and was taken to the city hospital. The accident made it necessary to suspend the pumping of water into the towers and reservoirs from which it is distributed to the city, until the damage can- be repaired. The Water Commilssioner’s office this would take about three hours. In the meantime, it was said, the city would have to depend upon what water had accumulated in the reservoirs and towers. The amount of this supply could not be estimat- ed.

French Troops and English Supplies Have Reached Italy—‘“‘American Action” Also Pleases Leaders. — TTT 7 - - BERLIN, via London, Nov. *6.— The Italian line on the Taglamento River has been won by the Austro- Germans, it was officially announced today by the general staff. The Ital- jans have evacuated the entire line along the river to the Adriatic coast. The German statement says that from the Fella Valley to the Col- brigon, north of the Sugana Valley, the Italians are retreating. (This re- gion includes the front along the Dolomites and the Carnic Alps.) Conflagrations, the German state- ment adds, indicate that the route being taken by the retiring Italians. is between the mountains and the sea through the upper Italian plain. The announcement follows: “The Tagliamento line has been won by us. The Italians are again in retreat between the mountains and the sea. Conflagrations indi- cate their route of i £ retirement through the upper Italian plein. “The military operations which s¢- jeured a crossing at the mountain edge by a German and Austro-Huni- garian division, which was eager to nudvance, drove a wedge into the nat- urally strong defensive positions of the enemy on the western bank of the river. The rapid widening of the bridgehead thus gained by successful fighting compelled the enemy to evacuate the whole river line to the Adriatic coast. “Up the river to the Fella Valley Italian brigades still held out yes- terday. The pressure of our advance has also compelled the Italians to give up their mountain front.

For a Fair Street Railway Settlement Why We Are Willing to Pay a Gross Receipts Tax This letter comes to us from ‘an Olive street strap-hanger”’: “You say your franchises have no money value to you. “You say any franchise tax is a tax on property you don’t own. “You say a gross receipts tax is a franchise tax. “Yet you say you are willing to accept a settlement that requires you to pay a 3%, $360,000 a year gross receipts franchise tax, in addition to your $660,000 a year general property and paving taxes. “If this $360,000 a year gross receipts tax is a tax on property you don’t own, why are you willing to pay it?” Any inquiry from a patron is entitled to respectful consideration, both by this Company and by the City Government. Here’s our answer: This Company stands ready to accept a settlement requiring us to pay a 3%, $360,000 a year gross receipts franchise tax—a tax on franchise values which we legally bought and paid for and which the State took from us without compensation in 1913—BECAUSE WE HAVE AGRFED TO DO IT, in return for certain concessions to be granted this Company by the City Government. This agreement was reached last Summer. The Company asked for a conference. The City Government appointed a committee, representing its executive, legal, engineering, finan- cial and legislative departments, to meet with representatives of the Company. Public conferences were held in which every phase of the situation was thoroughly discussed. As a result of these conferences the Company met every demand of the City. All that the Company got in return was the City’s promise of $120,000 a year reduction of our franchise taxes—from $480,000 to $360,000—and a promise of a permit to do business for fifty years subject to City and State regulation. : We have already given that promised $120,000 a year tax reduction, with $10,000 a year added, to our car men in increased wages. The following paragraphs from a Globe-Democrat editorial published last week will help strap-hangers and others to understand what happened: “Then the United Railways Com- pany came before the City petitioning for a settlement of controversies by mutual concessions and the establishment of a harmonious working agreement between the City and the Company. were practically valueless and its securities far below par. “The City Government realized that a receivership would be disastrous to the service AND DISASTROUS TO THE MUNICIPAL REVENUES. IT DID NOT WANT TO KILL THE GOLDEN GOOSE. It agreed to a compromise that would save the Company from the rocks, give the City a share in the direction of the concern and enable it to draw what it _ considered a sufficient revenue from the Company. “We said at the time, and we have not changed our mind, that THE CITY DROVE A HARD BARGAIN”, “Its financial condition threat- ened a receivership. Bonds to a large amount were coming due. New capital was required to take care of this indebt- edness and to provide for needed exten- sions and improvements. “The attitude of the City in regard to the general franchises fright- ened capital away. The Company had paid no dividends for years. Its stocks The City Government did indeed drive a hard bargain—hard on the Company and its employes and hard on the passengers. The City should quit collecting any franchise tax, leaving the whole $480,000 a year to be used for more service and better wages. However, having accepted the City’s terms, for the reason stated, THIS COMPANY STANDS READY TO MAKE ITS WORD GOOD. We are now waiting for the City Government to pass an ordinance giving legal effect to the agreement. i ' ' ; i ; ; i , ' } ; ; ‘ } ‘ ' cause ‘of / there. of important | RIOT INQUIRY IS ‘ ' PUT OFF BECAUSE.

Mayor Mollman was at that) time also a-member of the Levee! Board, and it was he who appointed | McCracken Health Commissioner, | Not a Sanitary Place. “And this man is the Health Com- | missioner!’’ exclaimed Raker, after reviewing the facts of the land deal. ‘Why, it. would keep a frog busy | trying to be healthy down in that! hole.’ (Meaning the ‘Valley’’).| Kelly agreed that it was not a very | sanitary place. “Well, I suppose Tom Canavan and} Locke Tarlton were especially inter- ested in all this, were they not?” Kelly reeplied that “The city and the Levee Board are entirely separate,’ he asserted. “Yes, but Canavan and Tarlton are business partners, and what one makes belongs to the firm, doesn’t it?’”’ inquired Raker. Kelly said that was a fact. “Then Moliman was a member of} the Levee Board which bought the| land from McCracken; Mollman was} i -the Mayor who appointed the Health | Commissioner; 'Tarlton’s partner; /-Mollman,” Congressman Raker re- counted. “From all the evidence brought 'man Foster, | Dispatch account, asked 'Cashel said they were, so far as he| ‘could remember. the Eads Bridge, the Wiggins Ferry | io.. _tions not been made, ‘the city would ' dition.

Schwartztrauber. “Has it been your experience here. that the small property holders) escaped their taxes, while the cor- | porations had to pay more’than their share?’ asked Congressman Raker. Kelly replied that the city would not suffer for revenue if the big plants paid as much in proportion as the ‘little fellows."”” The annual tax on an average 4-room house, such as. would rent for $12 or $15 a month lis $30, Kelly said. having an Further Facts on Tax Cuts.

Over-Heated Buildings. | (oe the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. - Would like to say a few words in regar: to waste of coal in heating public build- ings. When I shop I leave my furs at cause I know the unbearable heat in the stores, and one hears about it on all sides. Also. when dropping in at the tailor’s er milliner’s parlors the same over-heated rooms exist. Now why not limit amount of coal that should be used in hyildings, especially during mild weather? Fhe saleswomen would feel better anil fewer headaches would prevail. There no sense to all this conservation talk on some subjects @nd such waste of much | needed coal. I am surprised this subject has never been brought up and some rem- edy found, for it would benefit the sales- | people as well as shoppers, and how much | could be saved and sent to the poor when real winter arrives. A. D. Si High Prices Hurt the Poor. To the Edltor of the Post-Dispatch. Hew is it that the bakeries charge 10c ‘are ‘as the only for a b-cent size loaf of bread? How is it that standard lump coal costs 20c¢c a bushel to consumers (private)? How is it that most groceries are charging 12c a pound | for sugar? Tam just as patriotic as any. man in the United States, but what can aj} man (with prices the way they are) do?

In the first place he _ has not | enough wages to buy anything In advance | (IT am not speaking of skilled labor), and | in the second place he is the man that all corporations prey upon. Now for a few statistics: A vear ago flour sold for from $16.50 to $17.80 per barrel. Now it is $10.80 a barrel, a re- duction of from $6 to $7 per barrel. But) bread has not come down a bit.

Instance the following item from the Daily Mail: Whatever else the Hun raiders achieved last night, they interrupted the performance of one of Wagner's masterpieces at Drury Lane Theater. After a week during which opera after opera has been ‘carried on,” without a break, it became necessary to sus- pend for a brief interval the first act of “Tristan and Isolda.” It was deemed unfair to subject the performers to the strain. Nevertheless it was a fine performance. It Was particularly remarked how quickly the | spirit of the opera was caught up again. | It was not until he had called attention to | these little side affairs that the writer was able ‘to go on with his criticsm. However, if an opera ' (must be interrupted by these pesky Teuton air ‘raiders, there is a little poetic justice in the fact | ithat it bore some such title as “Tristan und Isolde’ and that it was composed by a gentleman ithe W in whose name is pronounced like a V. | eee | WHAT GERMANY FEARS, It is interesting to note that in all of the com- ment of German military critics on the part that) America will play in the war next spring there is | ‘now in United Railways only one phase of our war-activities that is not minimized—the aviation service | Practically ail of the Teutonic experts seem to | be agreed that the United States cannot send | _more than 500,000 soldiers to the western front ‘in the next six months and many of them doubt that it will be possible to transport even that many.

The German sense of humor, notoriously poor even before the war, appears to have become completely blunted by three years of conflict | No nation with a smile left in its system could go through such a Indicrous pantomime as establishing the ‘new State of | _ ~~ -_ | Poland.” Why not the new State of Belgium, or the new | \State of Servia, or the new State of Livoni-:. or | the new State of Rumania? Germany knows that the feeling in the occupied portions of Russian ‘Poland against the invaders is just as bitter as it is in the other devastated countries. Its abject \failure to recruit Polish regiments for service in the war should have been sufficient attitude of the Poles. Yet Berlin apparently believes that it can pla- ‘| proof of the | > social and recre ational field are | | provide shelter, good cheer, moral and spiritual i benefits and recreational opportunities for | camps.

PROVISO. | Among other proposals that should be scru-| tinized with exceptional care in the tentative | aldermanic arrangement with the United Rail-| ways is the one relating to city ownership. The $60,000,000 specified in the plan of settle- ment represents something more than the sum on 'which the company's security holders are to be] permitted to draw interest at 6 per cent in the | 'division of company receipts. It represents also | the basic sum which the city must pay for the United Railways properties, in the event that it ever decides to purchase them, and to this sum ‘must be added the cost of any im .extensions subsequent to the |nance’s approval. | Now, of course, circumstances |that the city will never desire to buy mprovements and date of the ordi may be these prop- | erties and engage in the experiment of operating ‘a traction company auspices.

There is plenty of food, but prices are high. All things are rather dark and gloomy, ex- cept the spirits of the people, which are wonderful.

T is inconceivable that the horrible suf- a ferings of this war should have been = thrust on the world without some compen~7 | sating advantages. One great benefit which” , has accrued to most of the belligerent na tions is the awakened sense of patriotism, ~ the realization that duties are owed by > . every man to his fellow citizens. It may . even arise out of the war that poverty, the’ : curse of modern society, may be almost | banished from the civilized nations owing to the livelier understanding that every man is truly his brother's keeper, and : every man is obligated to see that he is— not growing rich at the expense of his » brother. In England before the war nearly a third of the population, 12,000,- ¢ 000 people, were on the verge of starya- | tion. Today we are told that there . practically no poverty in England. BEvery-~ one who can work is working and earning ~ a decent livelihood; and everyone feels ~ that he is working not for himself alone cr for his family, but for the country. In spite of a terrible casualty list, in spite of air-raids and submarines, there is prob-’ | ably more health and happiness in Bn- 7 gland today than-at any other time in har | history. Is if possible that England will go back to the old slipshod wasteful methe* ods of 1914 when the war is over? me we ever in England see the old shamefal contrast between extravagant wealth and sordid poverty? It is almost inconeceiv- able. It will be our great misfortune if © we let the other nations of the world get 4 more in solid character-building out of the # war than we do. * * 4 The future oa | our country lies in the hands of a new na-5 tional party that will combine a radies | policy of domestic reform with a stron rf foreign policy and readiness to stand up 4 for our national rights. Women and the War. TOA M. TARBELL tn Harper's. F one compares the old notion of work of women in war with the pro 'gram of the Woman's Committee laid out |at the very start, without upposition from any one of its members, and with the practically unanimous approval of the council, he will have a very convincitig demonstration of how minds have broad- ened in the last twenty years in regard to social service and individual responsibility, ” It was taken as a matter of course that” plans should be laid for fitting women inte every stage of the war program—as a mat ter of course that their co-operation w going to be needed, not only for raisin money and making bandages, knittia ie garments and preparing comfort-kits ee nursing and feeding, but in the great economic and social readjustments, ti forms and undertakings. * * ® ff is fair to look to this attempt for a better realization by women of what disinter= ested co-operative democracy means, The merging of great groups, the willingness to. put aside, for a great national demand, oir | © th ee 2 NOE ere ek Nia om ee ne ee AN OLD MANUSCRIPT. EAR SIR—Some years ago a friend of mine picked, out of a heap of ancient refuse, in the attic of an old downtown residence building, a soiled and tattered clipping bearing the poem quoted below. Along the margin of the clipping was written, in a careful, feminine hand, ‘‘Sou. Lit. WVies.’’ This bit of paper, worn almost into shreds was de- stroyed after a careful transcript of the poem had been made. The fact that the poem was signed ‘‘E. P.’’ commends it to literateurs as being very prob- ably the production of Edgar Allan Poe, who was, at different periods of his stormy career, a valued con- tributor to the ‘‘Southern Literary Messenger,’’ to which the memorandum on the margin of the clipping evidently refers. The clipping bore no date. While Poe, where he used his initials only, in sign- ing Short productions, generally used all three of them—‘E. A. P.’’—the fact that the middle initial has in this instance, been omitted, does not necessar- ily preclude the possibility of the poem having been produced by the greatest and most pathetic figure in American literature. The poem bears almost all the characteristics of Poe's work. There is that absolute hopelessness and that satirical glee in the presence of tragedy that mark most of Poe’s poems. There is that sing-song movement in meter and rhyme that prompted Long- fellow to call Poe the ‘‘jingle man.’’ And finally there is that supreme faculty of putting the right word in the right place that typifies Poe’s best work, whether prose or verse. However, I think the poem will be graded as inferior to most of Poe’s poems— even the youthful effusions. So far as I have, by diligent investigation, been able to ascertain, the poem has never been included in any of the various editions of Poe's collected works. FREDERICK EB. VOELKE.

A “Brilliant Russian Student,” as Quoted in the oston Transcript. T HE Russian revolution reverses the French. The revolt against Louls was started by the middle classes and fin- * ‘ished by the masses, but it took three years and a half from the fall of the Bastille, July 14, 1789, to bring Louis to the block, ~~ Jan. 21, 1793. And, In the meantime, fn- stead of getting rid of a Czar and shipping him into Siberia within a few months, as the Russians hav. done, the French, 1789- | 1792, were alternately fearful of losing the | King and terrified at having him on their (hands. And while the fact that Danton | was a lawyer, like Kerensky, and fond of | taking up desperate causes of the people, jand that he was Minister of Justice for | two months in 1792, and Minister of Fore eign Affairs during a part of 1793, Kerens -@ | sky, beginning as Minister of Justice a4 March, by September, six months later ~ had become the Premier and _ dictator, ready to deal even with the counter-revolt | in the army under Korniloff. | The French Revolution developed very — leisurely, the republic not coming until © 3 | Sept. 21, 1792, three years after the fall oe the.

F. A. WALKER. Jumping Jack and China Doll | UMPING JACK lved in the | J playroom with little China | Doll, and while he fell in love | with her at first sight one Christmas 'morning when she came there to live, he never could get up his cour- age to tell her of his love. But one night when the house was still and the midnight hour came, | which gave the toys their talking | power, Jumping Jack jumped over /to where little China Doll sat on the floor by the wall. | “You are up late, dear lady,” he said. “I thought your little mistress always put you in your carriage or in a chair, even if she did not put you in your house at night.” She forgets that dolls have to sleep,” ‘sald China Doll, “but you, Jack, never seem to rest.” . This was just the chance Jack was waiting for, and he replied: “I can never rest, dear lady, until I have won your love. For you I will dance all day and dance all night; only say / you will be mine.’’ | “Oh, dear!” exclaimed China Doll. '“T don’t believe I could live with anyone that never keeps straight. You are always on the move. Jump- ing Jack, I could never love a man who looks as crooked as you do at times.’’ Jumping Jack’s eyes popped open wide, for he thought he was a very graceful fellow and many a- high | kick and jump he gave, because he thought China Doll was admiring him. Jumping Jack was @eo much tin ‘love, though, that he was even will- ing to straighten out if he could, so he told China Doll that he would give up leading such a crooked life for her and keep as straight as pos- sible, “Very Doll. straight for a week; you may come back for your answer at the end of that time.’’ well, Jack,” sald China | It was a ‘hard task his dear lady had set for 'him to do, but his love for her was 80 strong that he bravely tied knots /in the string which gave him motion, so he could not break his legs and But one day the littie mistress 'came to the playroom, and, seeing their acres andjcheeks after those put there by na-' Jack so straight and proper looking, ture have faded, and dye her hair. | women,; and act kittenish after she is old, when that did not move him she she gave a tug at the. string, and | gave another tug harder than the | first. : “Snap!"’ went the string, and one “Oh!” cried the little Jack is wounded; he will have to go to the ‘of women, with only here and there | brains, wouldn't take beauty without , hospital.” So Jumping Jack was put to bed getically offers shoes, shirts or suits best bet, whereas men put intelli- | and China Doll was put beside him | to nurse him. “Oh, Jack!” cried China Doll, that ‘night at 12 o'clock, “what has hap- / pened to you? How did you get so i terribly wounded? Little mistress 'said your leg was broken and had | dropped right off. “Oh, Jack! You promised me to keep straight, and f am sure you must have been very crooked, in- deed, to break your leg.”’ “Oh! Sometimes she leaves me out.. “T will try you if you keep | “It was all for love of you, dear. lady,” not mind losing a leg or even two if you will sit beside me all day.” And then he told her how he tied | the knots in the string to keep from | being crooked and how it broke and | he was injured. Little China Dott felt very sorry that she had caused Jumping Jack so much suffering, and she began to | cry that she knew she was not wor- thy of such love as he had given to _her, and if he would only get well | she would love him and marry him. | “And all my life, Jack, dear, I'll never ask you to keep’straight again, 'and I believe after all you are much | handsomer when vou kick and jump | even if you are crooked,” shecried. The next day the little mistress i brought her father to the playroom and showed him Jumping Jack’s | poor broken leg. “Oh! That is just dislocated,” said the father, playing he was a doctor; | “T’ll give him a little ether and fix that in a jiffy.” He took Jumping Jack to the table and put a cloth | over his face and from a little bottle , he poured something on the cloth. | “There, now; he cannot feel any _pain,’’ he told the little mistress, and ‘then he put a new strong piece of string in place of the old piece and /soon Jumping Jack's legs were as | well as ever.

HE remarkable career of Sir Ez Samuel Romilly, the’ British statesman, came to a tragic end 99 years ago. He was the first influential man in England to at- ‘empt to bring about the abolition of capital punishment. When he en- tered public Hfe the English statutes punished with death nearly 300 crimes, ranging from murder and treason down to keeping company with gypsies. Romilly, who was of French descent, launched an agita- bethan statute which made it a capi- tal offense to steal privately from the person of another. From that time until his death he v.aged war unceasingly against these cruel statutes, renewing his motions session after session, and although he failed, he cleared the way for the agitation. Romilly was devoted to delirium of grief. Four days later his grief had so preyed on his mind that he went mad and killed himself. Those Héislees Hushends.
