This fiction is the ground upon which it sought to continue all arbitrary charges. It has long Seen exposed. and was legally smashed by the United States Supreme Court, which decided that the St. Louis bridges and terminals were the bridges and terminals of each of the roads in the Terminal Association. The. Supreme Court knocked the independent theory out and affirmed that the union or common terminals of all the roads were the terminals of each road in the association. | It follows from this @hat the stile and ter- minals should be _jointly supported out of the general revenues of all the. roads using them, as the bridges and terminals of each road elsewhere are supported. It is a violent injustice to St. Louis to’ have the support of the bridgés and terminals of all the St. Louis railroads put upon St. Louis traffic. It es a discrimination against St. Louis, © It was this point of common union terminals whith the Post-Dispatch forced to a successful conclusion, impelling .the St. Louis roads to abolish all arbitrary charges beyond the 100- mile sone. The roads themselves, after years of ‘bitter Aighting, “acknowledged the justice of the point. The Supreme Court affirmed it. From the standpoint of both law and justice pers through the Chamber of Commerce -should see that this fiction, which still piaces a heavy burden on St. Louis and, if it is not abandoned, The general revenue of the roads and not the local revenues raised from local traffic should support the bridge and terminals of the city. Terminal. deficits are merely matters of book- “waged § rr Add some thrift certificates to those Liberty bonds and do yourself’ and your Government a good turn. A RUSSIAN ‘‘SHELBY’S BRIGADE.’’ What is described as an “efficient Russian force’ is said in late reports to have co-operated with the Bri army in a successful, movement in Mesopotamia. Great numbers of Russian troops were engaged in Asia against their historic enemy, the Turk, prior to the revolution.at Petrograd. What is to become of them in the enormous area of Asla, cut off by thousands of miles from their capital and filled; as these fighters must be, with grave misgivings over the pacifists who have seized their Government? Their status is not. unlike that of a consider- abie number of Confederates in our Southwest after Appomattox. The Government to which they had given their allegiance had fallen and, unsur- | rendered, they had established no relations and entered into no terms with the victorious Gov- ernment. They were men without a country. The part of the world nearest to them in which a demand for trained soldiers existed was Mexico and to that republic many turned their eyes. A splendidly equipped brigade of them who had ac- cess -to the final Confederate stores of war ma- terial, made their famous march under Gen. Shelby, to Mexico City, fighting battles en route against the opponents of the French and Em- peror Maximilian. The opportunities for good fighting in. Asia are limitless. The finest chance of all the centuries for érushing the Turk is now open. The “ig thing these Russians can do is to imitate on much larger scale the example of Shelby’s men. Possibly a truce with Berlin does not also mean | a truce with Constantinople, but if it does the Russian “Shelby’s brigade,’ enlarged to a division or an army corps or more, can join themselves to ' the British as soldiers of fortune and have a part in a memorable and doubtless glorious cam- paign in which Alexander’s route will be reversed. (= = i i i “If we maintain our strength we will win,” says Hindenburg. Apparently attrition is beginning to cause some nervousness ‘at the German head- quarters. = = * /_- = TURGENEV’S LIBERTY FABLE. More than 40 years ago the Russia of the pres- ent was prefigured in one of Turgenev’s little fables: A tall, bony old woman, with iron face and dull, fixed look, moves with long strides and with an arm as dry as a stick, pushes before her another woman. This woman—of huge stature, powerful, thickset with the muscles of a Hercules, with a tiny head set on a full neck and blind—in her turn pushes before here a small, thin gir). The girl alone has eyes that see: she re- sists, turns round, lifts thin, delicate hands; her face full of life shows impatience and daring. She wants not to obey; she wants not to £0 where they are driving her—but still she has to yield and go. Nis ios eee Liberty in the person of 6 gir e two women were intended to symbolize abstractions under the names of Ne- ceasity and Force, but how well they picture the mighty Russia of today under uncertain, fatuous guidance. . From Liberty only. can be obtained ihe Vision for wise direction at this critical hour and if her direction is accepted all will be well. appealing, anxious for her where they are driving her persuade to a different course. But is in the hands of the other two. can we predict that the ; THE TERMINAL FICTION. | “in ts, patted toe inorenued, oeehing rates, will increase the burdens, is finally disposed of. —- ad Ok Ay ge “, .

A chief master-at-arms commanded the armed } | Sard across the Atlantic in a small tanker, and he reported as follows: “An insufficient supply of provi- sions was carried which, on the out- ward trip, resulted in no fresh meat after the eighth day. While lying fast or dinner. Coming home the fresh provisions were gone after three days at sea and we had to eat the emergency. rations in the life- boats. On the day we reached port there was nothing left in the ship except tea. “On both outward and return voy- ages the lights from ports and doors were continually exposed while pass- ing through the danger zone. I pro- tested to the captain, but no steps were taken to stop it. While near- ing the English coast the Morse lights and whistle were used, in spite of my protests, and the captain also refused to zigzag. I told him to follow his instructions but he re- plied that the ship was slow and much time would be lost by zigzag- ing. Cowardice Rebuked. During an encounter with an enemy submarine ejther the captain or the first officer gave the signal to abandon ship about 10 seconds after the enemy was sighted.

He did not obey this order, and I therefore cov- ered him with my pistol and threat-: ened to shoot him if he did not imme- diately get the ship under way. He obeyed my order.

This was done, and the ship sailed again with a new crew and enough to eat. As for the sheer cowardice displayed in face of danger, the case was exceptional. The reports indicate, as will be dis- played in the course of this story, that American merchant officers are acquitting themselves bravely, as might be expected, amid the gravest hazards imaginable. The statement of this chief mas- ter-at-arms is extrémely laconic. He has no gift of narrative, but he knew how to get results.

To. disobey this or- » | der. is a serious offense, and means immediate confinement. These gas helmets are in a cafivas bag and are slung around the left shoulder by means of a canvas strap. in pitching Stewart's gas helmet bothered him greatly, and after ’the second inning he took it off. I warned him 40 be careful, because J jnotice@ several military police in the crowd. But Stewart would not listen. He always was pigheaded. One of the Canadian rooters spot- ted that Stewart had laid aside his helmet, and artfully communicated this fact to the rest of his team’s rooters. ‘I noticed the rodters crowd around him for three or four minutes, and then a great ‘laugh went up and they stretched nig along the foul lines. *‘Where’s Your Gas Bag?’ Suddenly one fellow, getting out in front of the bunch, like a‘cheer ‘leader, counted, “One, two, three.” Then up went a mighty. chorus. of, “Hey, Stewart, where’s your gas hel- met, where's your old gas bag, where's your old gas bag?” ier i LMM MT hristmasSale of Drosten Silverware - In addition ta our wonderful stock of ex- aa Iry Gift Offerings ' at moderate 6 5 oi ilhaba offer the following Christmas Feature a clusive Je items at radical price reductions. % Every St. Louisan knows the sterling quality of oa Drosten wares and also knows that it is seldom that a — rtunity presents itself to secure such fine mecr- se.under price.

He fell for this and agreed with me. After that rube of a pitch- er had thrown about 15 or 16 balls, several passing me, which I chased to the billet to waste time, the um- pire got impatient and the rooters were yelling like mad to carry on. T still insisted that none of the balls had’ gone’ over the plate, and the umpire was in a quandary. Just then one of our men passed in the rear of me and whispered, “Stewart says to gO on with the game.” Won- dering at this information, I started in. The pitching of that Welshman was awful. He hit the first two men up and walked the third. I was in despair, bases full and two out. Some of the Canadian rooters were junip- ing up and down, throwing their hats in the air, and one fellow was whis- tling “The Star-Spangled Banner.” This got my goat completely. « Near every billet hangs a gas gong. This is a ‘triangular piece of steel or an .empty. shell case. Beside. this gong hangs an iron striker. Upon the sounding of the alarm, by strik- ing on the gong witH the striker. every man is supposed to put on his gas helmet and repair immediately to his proper station. These gongs are to warn soldiers that German poison gas is coming. over. ‘The Gas Gong Saved Us.’ While I was signaling to my rube pitcher and beseeching hith‘ to put one over, the clanging of the. gas. gong rang out. I dropped my glove, | got off riy chest protector, and mad- ly rushed for my helmet «and soon had it: on, the rooters and players doing the same. Then I. got wise. I remembered Stewart’s Instructions: [ “Watch out,for gas. I'll make ‘em hunt for their gas helmets.” The|' nerve and daring of his schéme took my breath away, The Canadians had a mile to go to get to their stations, and. believe me, it is no fun double- timing for a mile while a gas hel- met is choking you with its chem- ical fumes. Well; those Canadians beat it dnd so did we, but the game was saved and all bets were off. Afterwards, I was let into die secret. Stewart had given Stein 10 with his 15, frances bet on the game, Then orders were received to take baseball was forgotten. The work. in front of us was to be of the grim- ynest nature. - Not long after that, in my first go-{ : sna “over the top.” Sean) tas Miied o > cate) .

The orchestra itself will be fea- tured in the concerts given by the Symphony Orchestra this week, ac- cording to the announcement. No solo artist has been engaged for the Friday and Saturday concerts this week, which are the fourth pair of regular symphony events of the sea- son, and there is to be no soloist at today’s “‘Pop” concert. In place of a visitor, Conductor Zach has listed the concertmaster, Michael Gusikoff, in the “Meditation” from Thais, by Massenet, and has chosen as other numbers compositions which bring into prominence several solo instru- ments. The principal number of this after- noon’s popular concert program will be the symphonic poem ‘“Vitava” (the River Moldau), played at one of the pairs of symphony concerts this year. Following is the complete program for this afternoon: Processional march of Sheba”’ Overture to “‘Raymond”’ Two melodies for string crchestra...

Poland—that is, Russian Poland——must be permit- ted to seek its own form of govern- ment, in accordance with its own traditions. So mrust Lithuania. Sea Front Is Vital. But if the Lithuanian be separated from: the Pole, then: there is -v ehance of a development of a real Poland, for ee occupy aH | the Baltic shores of the ancient Po- lis: State not actually included with- in German frontiers, and the new Polish state without a sea front would be economically at the mercy of the state which held not merely Dantzig amd Koenigsberg,’ but also | w Libau and Riga. But Lithuania. without a hinterland, would »be equally handicapped, would be mere- ly an insignificant state, dependent upon Germany for its existence, since it would always bar Poland and whut was left of Russia from the ope. sea. Recall that Poland was partitioned and under the. di- rection of Frederick the Great, orig- inally, and that Prussia was a partner | in each of the two succeeding parti- | ltions. Recall that today Germany—!/ choke, that is, Prussia—holds 4,000,000. Poles in slavery of a sort far more in- | tolerable than that of the people of Alsace-Lorraine; and it is possible to understand how much of sincerity there is in the new German plea for the Polish people—of Russian Po- land. There was once an American poli- tician who defined the attitude of his class to the public by the aphorism, “Give the people the laws which they want, but make them unconstitution- al.”’ German policy now proposes to bestow certain blessings upon the Po- lish people of Russia, but to bestow them in such shape that they will not | benefit the Poles and will lead to the ultimate aggrandizement of Ger- many. She is seeking to create about “her a number of small states; incapa-. ble of independent existence because they have not the necessary organs, ‘and, having created them, to swallow them, one by one, a8 one eats an arti- leaf by leaf. This is what she is doing in Belgium, where she is ‘seeking, to set the feeling against the ‘Walloon, with the foreknowledge that lif such a division be achieved there ean be no Belgium, and she will ulti- mately be able, as champion of the Fleming or. the Walloon, as the case may be, to annex all of Belgium. Reviving Old Grudges. The Belgian. example is an admir- abje parallel, for something of the same ancient jealousy exists between the Lithuanian and the Pole, who are racially and linguistically nearer kin than the Fleming and the Walloon, but have ancient grudges and con- temporary rivalries. If Germany suc- ceeds in creating these. two separate states both will be in the end her vas- sals and her victims. And her policy tria in the patkaan h Ruseia a tury: both sought to keep the Soren containing States weak and divided by mutual} jealousies, that all might in time fall| of these being to their share. Russian treatment of Bulgaria and Austrian treatment of Servia both rest upon the same essen- tial doctrine. ? ‘So much for the ‘German policy. Now, what does the German ‘propos- al mean in terms of immediate fact? First of all, it means the creation of a small state joining the old Russo- German frontier north of the Nie- men and occupying all the territory between the Baltic on the west, the Gulf of Riga on the north, and on the east, the line of the Petrograd-War- saw railroad; finally, the southern boundary might conceivably be the Wiemen River. This would mean in- cluding the Russian Governments of the Courland, Kovno, Wilna, Livonia and at least portions of Gredno and Suwalki. This would be @ Russian Poland, = 000,000 rere - added a port tion of Volhynia, making weep state of about the same size as ania, but with 4. population state proaching 16,000,000.

Against such a peril Poland is the sole barrier in sight and to be a barrier Poland must be restored to her frontiers of the eight- eenth century, must be a state con- taining the 20 odd million of Poles, now scattered under three flags and must also include other peoples of kindred race once united to Poland.

Pretense of Allied Policy. “This, then, is what the German policy means. It. makes use of the > this formula of the Bolsheviki; it makes |use of the allied program for freeing small people; but actually it contem- 8, |) plates s@ dividing the peoples on the eastern frontier of Germany that they cannot achieve national unity, so that they cannot escape the German dom- ination in the future, when Germany is ready. Meantime, Austria, which is already a shadow rather then a fact, is to be used as a cover, and*there is ‘to be a new partition of Poland, and the’ Poles of Austria, politically pow- erful now, are to be thrust out, that the Germans of the Hapsburg empire may regain control of the northern half. Later they will be disposed of as the Germans of Germany see fit in the time when the Germans’ of Aus- tria have followed those of Bavaria and Saxony into the Hohenzoliern empire. Now against such a program there is no protection in Russia. Lithuani- ans and Poles are outside the calcu- lations of the Bolsheviki. They are outside the knowledge of the mil- lions who make up the inert mass of the Russian people. To part with them as a price of peace would cre- ate no protest in old Russia as it now exists. On the other hand it is plain that a. new “sick man” in the RES : ‘and a new series of European wars growing out of the German pur- pose to inherit all his estates. And’ there is, it seems to me, but one line of policy—that which contemplates the creation of a real Polish state, a Polish state including within its boundaries the Poles of Germany 15 well as of Austria and Russia; a Pol- ish state to which is joined Lithuania under some such arrangement as now exists between Austria, and Hun- gary, allowing for complete local and lingual independence but irisuring a common foreign policy and a suffi- cient seaboard and territorial extent to insure economic and industrial in- dependence. If one desires to test the sincerity of the German interest in the Poles, let him examine the treatment that Prussian Poles have had to endure for a century and more, since Fred- erick. the Great engineered the first partition, and if anyone desires to test the sincerity of the interest of the central Powers for small pec- ples, as such, let him recall the cases of Belgium and of Servia. No, the German policy in the East is the German policy everywhere. But, un- happily, the world, which ts begin- ning to understand the peril of Ger- man ambitions with respect to the perpendicular expansion of Mittel Europa, still remains uncompre~ hending, while it confronts with the even greater danger of the lateral ex- pansion—the expansion which aims at the Pacific through Siberia rather than the Indian Ocean throuzl Me- sopotamia and Persia. : it is expected, and fdore-minded wom- Today the fate of Turkey «t leastien believe they can avert it by get- threatens Russia.

SHELL, STEEL AND SHRAPNEL FOUND 5 MILES FROM HALIFAX Officers of American Cruiser 45 Miles Off Port Thought Ship Had Struck ‘Mine. NEW YORK, Dec. 8.—Pieces of shells, steel plates and shrapnel have been found five miles from Halifax. At Orangedale, Cape Bre- ton, 160 miles distant in an airline, and at Sydney, 200 miles away, the shock was that of a severe earth- quake. At Truro, 62 miles, windows of the Learmont Hotel were shattered and the clock was shaken from the wall of the train dispatcher’s’office. At Meagher’s Grant, 35 miles away, a | barn was lifted from its foundations as though the work-had been done by an. expert house mover. Two American vessels were mak- ing port at the time. One, a cruiser, about 45 miles off Halifax, was so shaken that the officers believed the ship had struck a mine. Seeing an- other craft on_the horizon, they con- cluded they had been fired on. They stopped to investigate the stranger. A hospital ship 60 miles off Halifax felt the shock’and at once concluded the American cruiser, whose location was known to it, was in action. 6 explosion raiséd a wavé in the harbor that went 40 feet over the decks of the Intercolonial Ralil- way and swept away loaded freight cars.

LABOR HALTS, TOWN IS DARK, TO AID "PHONE GIRLS’ STRIKE Fort Smith, Ark., Papers Print Sun- day Editions Saturday, When Printers Quit Work. FORT SMITH, Ark., Dec. 8.— Street lights in-Fort Smith were cut off early tonight, after the last street car had returned to the barns, and it was stated that all organized labor had joined in support of the striking telephone girls except bar- bers and retail: clerks, who were scheduled to enter the strike at 10 Pp. m. An appeal is said to have been made to the Federal authorities to request that the power plant be con- tinued in operation, the appeal being based on the fact that the plant pro- vides power to mines in this district which produce 4000 tons of coal daily. A Home Guard organization is be- ing formed here, but it has no equip- ment.. Labor leaders declare there will be no violence. It was anhounced that W. D.

The highest pofnt dur- ing the afternoon was 6 degrees, and at sunset another decline began. At 1 a. m. the temperature, as recorded by the Police Headquarters ‘ther- mometer on Twelfth street, was 0. Street car service was more regular last night than it was yesterday morning, but traffic obstructions on downtown loops, and cautious run- ning because of slippery tracks every- where, prevented normal schedules from being kept. : Many Trains. Delayed. Trains entering St. Louis yester- day and last night were nearly «all late and some of the trains due early last evening had not arrived at mid- night. The M. K. & T. train due at 7:45 p. m. was “marked up” for 2:30 this morning, and the Missouri Pacific and Wabash had trains from the West and North which were five and six hours late. Trains from the East were more nearly on time, the Pennsylvania train due at 8:30 p. m. being only 10 minutes late. Service from the South and West was gen- erally delayed.

Park Department said last night. The snow, covering the first thin ice, retarded the freezing to a sufficient thickness to make the ice safe. With continued cold, there may be skating tomorrow. The snow on the hills and ridges in Forest Park is not suf- ficient for coasting, the superintend- ent said, as the wind blew most of it away: Four Below at St. Charles. The St. Charles ferry across the Missouri River suspended business yesterday morning, because of float- ing ice, and since that time the only access from the St. Louis County side has been by trains of the Wa- bash Railroad. The roadway of the highway bridge is being rebuilt, and the work would have been finished in another week. <A. F. Ahmann, a newspaper dealer, yesterday spanned the gap with boards and got his St. Louis papers over in a wheelbarrow, from the terminus of the electric line. The lowest temperature re- corded by the Government thermom- eter, of wigch L. C. Seager is cus- todian, was 4 degrees below zero. Several persons were injured in ac- cidents due to the snow and slippery streets. Mrs. J. P. Poupeney, 42 years old, of 4152 Cleveland avenue, fell at Broadway and Washington avenue and suffered a fractured leg. George Loub, 9, of 8116 North Broadway, fell while sliding on the sidewalk in front of 8300 North Rroadway and struck his head on the sidewalk, suffering concussion of the brain. Herman Meyer, 53, of 34385 Kos- ciusko street, suffered a fractured leg when it was caught between a fence and a snowplow he was driv- ing. Slippery Rails, Due to Snow, Cause Two Street Car Accidents. Slippery rails, due to the snow, caused two street car accidents yes- terday in which several yersons were injured and two horses killed. The horses were killed when a southbund Bellefontaine car struck a coal wagon driven by Jacob Hoe- ner, 208 Bowen street, at Virginia avenue and Delor street. The mo- torman, J. E.

The Republican City Committee yesterday afternoon adopted a res- olution indorsing woman suffrage and petitioning the Senators and Representatives from Missouri to work and vote for the Susan B. An- thony amendment. This action came after the committee had listened to | an address by Miss Josephine Miller, a Red Cross nurse, who recently re- turned from France to work for suf- frage. The committee heard,.the address behind closed doors, but Miss Miller afterward told a Post-Dispatch re- porter she put the. proposition on purely. political grounds. She was accompanied by Mrs. Lucille Lowen- stein, secretary of the St. Louis Suf- frage League, who also gave some Statistics on .the progress of the movement. “We told them that women, as political factors, could not be ig- nored any longer,’ Miss Miller said. “We pointed out that States where women vote had 91 votes in the electoral college at the last Pres- idential election, and that the num- ber has since been increased to 193 by the addition of New. York, Ne- braska, Indiana, Rhode — Island, Michigan, North Dakota and Arkan- Seay Schmoll Gives His Views. Chairman John Schmoll, however, was sure the political angle had nothing to do with the indorsement. “The way I look at it,” he said, ‘is that women are doing a lot in this war. They are as necessary as men. Then why shouldn't they have something to say about how the country is run?” The resolution was as follows: “The undersigned, Belhg the Re- publican City Committee of St. Louis, in meeting assembled, do hereby pe- tition the Representatives and Sena- — | tors of Missouri to the National Con- | ‘John Reed, writer, and three others, gress to work and vote for the im- mediate submission of ‘the Federal suffrage amendment to the Legisla- tures of the various states, in order that the women of the United States may become the political equals of those of Great Britain, Australia. New Zealand, Canada, Russia and the Scandinavian countries. Text of Amendment. “The amendment shall read as fol- lows: “Sec. 1. The right of the citi- zens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by on account of sex. “Sec. 2. The Congress shall have power, by appropriate legislation; to enforce the provisions of this arti- cle.’ ”’ Gov. Gardner recently in a’ public address also indorsed the suffragists’ cause.

Reservations are being made at the. larger establishments, but mot so many have been made’as in former years, and not so many are expected, because of the absence of many per- sons in the war and in war activ- ities, and because the spirit of cele- bration is not so prevalent as in times of peace. Dancing wiil be featured at some of the hotels and clubs. Wine prices will not advance above last year's level, the cafe proprietors say, but the range of choice among imported brands will not be so wide, as some wines are no longer to be had.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.—The cen- tral Powers are developing on the Italian front the maximum military effort of the war, according to a ca- ble dispatch received here today from Rome. Italian aviators report continual concentration of Austro- Germans, who are streaming over all roads leading to the Asiago Pla- teau, where desperate fighting still is being waged. After three days of terrible fight- ing, in which Italian troops sacrificed themselves, the Austro-Germans, the dispatch said, succeeded in eliminat- ing the arch which constituted the Italian foremost line of defenss in the eastern side of the plateau. _ Although the Teutons emploved a colossal array of heavy artillery’ and made large use of asphyxiating gases,” the Italian retirement wes accomplished gradually and every} inch of ground was stubbornly con- | tested. “The Austro-Germans are now holding the wedge between Mow Tondarecar and Badenecche and they are attempting to force their way to Foza, strike at our lines from the rear and invade the Valstagua,” said the dispatch. “The difficult offen- sive operations are carried out by our soldiers with unparalleled valor. Entire sections of Italian troops, sur- rounded on Monte Fiorand Castle Gombert, sacrificed themselves in or- der to retard the advarice of the in- vaders and give the rest of our units time to retire to the new lines. An infantry brigade, ‘having lost half of its effectives, held in check for sev- eral hours a far superior number ofig enemies until their supply of ammu- nition, was exhausted and then theg |. retired, defending themselves wi the bayonet. - “A new formidable enemy attack’ is expected. Continual * concen- trations. of Austro-Germans are streaming from all the roads leading to the Asiago Plateau. “Thus far Gen. Conrad has off tained a tactical success, but not the strategical result which he expect- ed. Unfortunately the enemy is fa- vored by exceptionally good weather. “It can be stated that the central Powers are developing on the Ital- jan front the maximum military ef- fort of the present war.” ce Within Russia, where the Bol- sheviki are still in control of: the reins of Government, there are ru- mors of internal developments of potential importance One such is to the effect that former Emperor Nicholas has succeeded in effecting his escape. Little has developed as to what action the modefate forces of the nation may be contemplating in combatting the Bolsheviki meas- ures, one of which is reported to be the impending repudiation of all of Russia's foreign loans. Ecuador has joined the important group of South American nations which have broken relations. with Germany.. British Saved Every Gun in Bourion Wood Retirement. BRITISH ARMY HEADQUAR- TERS IN FRANCE, Friday, Dec; 7. —Distinct satisfaction was felt along the British front today at the suc- cess of the retirement in the Cam- brai sector. Gen. Byng’s men, in holding Bourlon Wood, fought and worked day and. night in gas hel- mets. As long as the British artillery ig able to continue the heavy bombard- ment of Bourion Wood such as is now being carried on, it is probable the wood will not be free from reek- ing and polsonous fumes. The Germans have been losing heavily in men ever since they start- ed to follow the British retirement. They are now suffering what the Brit- ish might have euffered had the Ger- mans discovered that the retirement was impending and launched an at- tack at an opportune time. The British rear guards were withdrawn in sections, leaving the enemy puz- zled as to the exact situation, and the constant artillery and rifle fire of the British, together with their patrol assaults, confused the enemy. Every British gun and every piece of ammunition was removed safely, $25,000 prize Bi — ney ‘to tributed ame WASHINGTON, Dec. 38.—Coal dealers who refuse to with the fuel administration in its efforts to obtain a proper .distribu- tion of fuel will be put otu of busi- ness. Thie was made clear tonight in a statement by Fuel Administrator Garfield, giving the text of a sharp addressed to a Philadelphia “Administration is advised you re- fuse to co-operate with Federal Fuel Administrator. If this is the case, ad- ministration will take steps to have all coal shipped to you diverted to other dealers who are willing to co- operate with this administration in relieving the whole situation. “It is not a time when dealers can run their own business as they see fit, and co-operation must be given if the efforts of this administration are to be successful.

The unusual in volunteers probably is due to the fact that vol- untary enlistmént of men of draft age ceases entirely after noon Dec. 15. Under the new draft regulations, effective on that day, men of draft age may waive exemption rights and apply to their local board for imme- diate military service. In that case they would be sent to regular army recruiting depots. It is assumed that many men sub- ject to draft under the next call are taking advantage of the days that re- main in which they may enlist under a wholly voluntary classification. cullen as a “motion picture player,” Miss Rose Friedenreich, 22 years old. accidentally shot and killed her mother, Mrs. Joseph Friedenrich, wife of a tailor, at their home. here.

MUSIC DEALER Pr Two music store proprietors were arrested and several hundred dol- lars worth of phonograph records, reproducers and needles: recovered by the police last night following the confessions of two boys, eniployes of the Columbia Phonograph Co., 1121 Pine street, that they had systemati- cally robbed the concern during the last six weeks. The men under arrest are Val Kusnitz. owner of a store at .115 North Tenth street, and Robert Mil- ler, who conducts a store at 1414 Franklin avenue. The police found 2000 records, 30 boxes of needies and three reproducers in Miller’s store. A collection of, phonographic sup- plies, identified as the property of the Columbia Company, was recover- edi from Kutnitz’s place. . » The boys, -Arthur Miller,, 18, of 5369 Theodosia avenue and Charlies Cook, also 16, of 5138 Ridge avenue, were arrested yesterday afternoon following an. investigation by detec- tives of the disappearance of sup- plies from the phonograph com- pany’s office and warerooms. Both gave a detailed confession of their thefts and led the police to the music stores where the stolen goods had been disposed of. According to the Cook ‘boy, ‘the two struck up a friendship six weeks ago while both were working in the wareroom of the phonograph com- pany. Shortly afterwards Cook was discharged. Since that time he made regular trips to the rear en- tra of the place where he re- ceived records, boxes of needles and other articles from young Miller, the police say. These were divided between them and sold to the music dealers, they said. The money derived from. the sale of the stolén goods were used by the two boys in entertaining two girls at moving picture-shows and in chop suey. restaurants, according to Cook, Miller, however, managed to keep part of his money and when arrested was found to have $115 on. depoait in a downtown bank. Both Kusnitzs and Robert Miler deny buying the stolen goods from the boys. Warrants will be applied for Monday charging them with re- coving stolen property. (MEANS GRILLED OW HIS STORY OF MRS.

If I narrate some, of my. personal ex- periences and difficulties, the reader will not, I hope, think it egotistical upon my part, but will realize that it is the most graphic way in whicia I can sketch out the ‘points which are likely to occur. to.any other inquirer. Spiritualism a Religion. “It has been asserted .by men for whose opinion I have. a deep regard —notably by Sir William Barratt— that psychical research is quite dis-: tinct from religion...Certainly it is at $6 a foot. ite | religions Si i a Ak amid Welk Menpen We the Peek Biapench NEW YORK, Dec. 8.—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, noted author, whose ‘Sherlock Holmes’ is a classic among the creations of detective literature, in an article to be published in the igmuary issue of the Metropolitan Magazine; makes: his. unqualified. confession of faith in spiritualism, and tells of the’ wv ree. of 30 years’ investigation that has convinced him be- a doubt life in the world of spirits is just as real, 3; as it is in this national world. He writes: SO, in: the sense that a man might be a very good psychical pesearcher but a very bad man. But the results of psychical research, the deductions bs ogy we may draw, and the les- ons we may learn, teach us of the continual life of the soul, of the na- ture of that life, -and of how it is in- fluenced by our conduct here. If this is distinct from religion, I must con- ‘fess that I do not understand the dis- tinction. To me it is religion—the very essence of it. The question which faces us then, is how does this re-’ ligion bear upon the older organized and: philosophies. which hawe influenced the actions of men. _ Phe answer is, that to only one'‘of these religions or philosophies is this new revelation absolutely fatal. That 1is to my own old creed of Material- Asm. ‘of hostility to Materialists; who so far as they are an’ organized body, rare, I think, as earnest and moral as opted other class. But the fact is man- ifest that if spirit can live without ‘matter, then the foundation of ma- ‘terialism — fs gone, and the whole bleak and barren erection crashes to ithe ground. “The New Revelation.” “As to other creeds, it must be admittde that an acceptance of the teaching brought to us from beyond “would deeply modify conventional \Christianity. But these modifica- jtions would be rather in the direc- ‘tion of explanation and development than of contradiction. It would set right grave misunderstandings which have always offended the rea- son of every thoughtful man, but it would also confirm many vital dog- mas. Most vital of all, it would con- firm and make absolutely certain the fact of life after death, the base of all religion. It would confirm the unhappy results of sin, though it would show that those results are never permanent. It would confirm the existence of higher beings, whom we have called angels, and of an ever-ascending hierarchy \above us, in which the Christ spirit finds its ENE EE OE NS I OC A : epee. con's ae cr eee A Great Responsibility. ility attached to the Pietane of a remedy for infants and children ‘Baults whose syste ‘upon is. of the manufacturer of remedies counteract, for a time-at least, any today,.as it has been | Ido not say this in any spirit | the spectrum, ’ ptece, culminating th heights of the infinite with which we associate. the idea of all-power or of God. It would confirm: the idea of heaven and of a temporary pérnal state which corresponds to purgatory rather than to hell. Thus this new revelation, on some of the most vital ‘points, is not destructive of the, old beliefs, and it should bé hailed by really earnest men. of all creeds as a most powerful ally rather than as a. dangerous, dévil- otten eneiny: “Now, léaving this large and pos- sibly contentious subject of the mod- ifications which such. new revelations would produce in Christianity, let us. try to follow.what occurs to man after death. The evidence on. this’ point is fairly full and consistent.. Messages from the dead have been‘ received in many ds at various times, mixed up with a good - deal: about this world, which wé could. verify. When messages come thus, it is only fair, I think, to suppose that if what’ we can test is true, then what we cannot test is true algo.: When, in addition, we find a very great uniformity in the messages and an agreement as to details which are not at all in accordance with any pre-existing scheme of thought, then: I think the presumption of truth is very strong. It is difficult to think. that some 15 or 20 messages of which. I have: personal notes, all agree, ant yet aré’ all wrong, nor is {t.easy to suppose that spirits. can tell the truth about our world but untruth about their own. “Dying Is Painless.” “The message upon thesé points seems to me to be infinitely reassur- ing, whether we regard our own fate or that of our friends, The depart- ed all agree that passing is usually both easy and painless, and followed by an enormous reaction of peace and ease. The indiwdual finds him- self in a spirit body, which is the exact counterpart of his old one, save that all disease, weakness or de- formity ‘has passed from it. This body is standing or floating beside the old body, and conscious both of it and of the surrounding people. At this moment the dead man is nearer to matter than he will ever be again, and hence it is that at that moment ‘the greater part of those cases occur where, his thoughts -having--turned. to someone in the distance, the spirit body went with the thoughts an4 was manifest to the person. Out of some 250 cases carefully exam- ined by Mr. Gurney, I think that 134 of such apparitions were actua!- ly at this moment of dissolution, when one could imagine that the new spirit body was possibly so far material as to be more visible to a sympathetic human eye than it would later become. “These cases, however, are very rare In comparison with the tota] number of deaths. In most cases I imagine that the dead man is much too preoccupied with his own amaz ing experiencé to have much thought for others. He soon finds to his surprise that, though he endeavors to communicate with those whom he sees, his ethereal voice and his ethereal touch are equally unable to make any impression upon those hu- man organs which are only attuned to coarser stimulf. It is a fair sub- ject for speculation, whether a fuller knowledge of those sight rays which we know to exist on either side of or of those sounds which we can prove by the vibra- tions of a diphragm ‘to exist, al- though they are too high for mortal ear, may not bring us some further psychical knowledge: Setting that} aside, however, let us follow the for- tunes of the departing spirtt.

But the idea of. punish- fact of purgatory, is justifjie ed by the reports front the other side. Such punishment does not consist of gross bodily pain—there is no pain beyond —but it consists in _ fact poe’ the ssest souls are in lower spheres with a knowledge that thelr ‘own with the hope that expiation and - help of those above them will educate them and bring them level with the others. In this saving proc: ess the higher spirits find part of their employment. Miss Julla Ames in her beautiful posthumous book says in memorable words: “The greatest joy of heaven \is emptying hell.” Such a sentiment as that ‘ts certainly an advance in morality since the days when Grégory, a Father of the Church, and called a Saint, said that one of the joys of the blessed was watching the tor- ments of the damned. “Betting aside those probationary |: spheres, - which should perhaps rather be looked upon as a hospital for weakly souls than a8 a penal | community, the reports from © the}. other: world are all agreed as to the pleasant conditions of life in the be- yond. . They agree that like goes to like, that all who love or who have interests in common are united, that life is full of interest and of occupa- tion, and that they would by no means desire to return. All of this is surely tidings of great joy, and I repeat that it is not a vague faith or hope, but that it is supported by ali the laws of evidence which agree} that where many independent wit- nesses give a similar account, that account has a claim to be considered a true one, If it were an account of glorified souls purged instantly from all human weakness and of a con- stant ecstacy of adoration round the throne of the all powerful, it might: well be suspected as being the mere reflection of that popular theology which all the mediums had equally received in their youth. It is, how- ever, very different to any pre-exist- ing system. It is also supported, -as I have already pointed out, not merely by the consistency of the ac- counts, but by the fact that the ac- counts are the ultimate product ofa long series of phenomena, all of which have been attested as true AD TOHAVE ME HINDU Document Filed in Federal Court allege.

The ruling will hold good only for the duration of the war. —-~ Another radical ruling of the-Val- ley presidents. was the adoption of the suggestion of the faculty con- ference representatives for freshmen competition durfng the period of the war. Conference freshmen teams may schedule contests up to 25 per cent of the varsity edules. The freshmen schedule need not necessaritly be with other conference freshen.

This involyes cheapen- ing his accommodations and reduc- ing the cost of his feed. However, grieve not for the base- ball luminary—he will welcome at least one plan, which is as follows: Clubs which, in the past have been quartering their men on $4.a day flat hotel’ rates, . can no longer ob- tain these terms, owing to increased cost. Nor is the club owner willing to send his-men to a cheaper hotel. Instead here is. ‘the main idea, as we get it: To quarter the club ‘at hotels. on the European plan, allowing two ‘players to-each $3 room, making the high cost of shunber and bath totel $1.50 per day, per man. Then the club will allow $2.50 cash to each player, each day, on which he is to feed himself, Shades of the past!

OXING is temporarily in worse _ plight than any other sport. But more than any other, too, it will re- bound after the war. With practical- ly all the noted pugilists stationed at training camps as instructors, the en- tire United States army will gain ex- perience, or at least int erest, in this rugged and virile sport. The spread of boxing education is sure 'to be manifest at the box office, when conditions return to normal. Perhaps this’ increase in the army of followers of pugilism may result in more liberality toward it on the part of legislators, whe ingly have looked upon this game as an cutcast sport, instead of the one to which the country was the first to turn when it wanted a recreation to — develop MEN, ‘ | ” * Yon jdt hss ‘“c ENNANTS ‘bare been won with Pp 18 men,” declares President Charles Weeghman of the Cubs, in de- fending the proposed reduction of the player limit. When baseball was young they won pennants with 13 or 14 players and thought they had an army then. Pitchers worked every day, either in the box or in the outfield. In 1884, with the Providence. team, Charley Radbourne won 18 succegsive games, hurling the first one Aug. 7 and the last one of his winning string Sept. 6, or 18 winning games in 30 days. Furthermore, he was compelled un- der the rules to give the batsman the particular kind of ball—high, low or waist ball—as ordered By the bats- man. Baseball has become highly special- ized since and difficulties of pitchers have increased. But there is hardly any doubt that the battery work of the early °80’s was very little less onerous or. exhausting than is re- quired of pitcher and catcher today. Baseball players, without belittling the good work done by the men of this century, .are pampered beyond necessity. And the war may serve to show this fact. a HENIGAN WINS MARATHON; WILL ENLIST IN ARMY BOSTON, Dee. 8.—James- Henigan of the Dorchester Club, the National amateur cross country champion to- day successfully defended his title as New England amateur 10-mile cham- pion. He led a field of eight runners over the course in 1 hour 41-5 sec- onds. Fred Feller, was second near- ly 17 seconds behind. All the runners represented the Dorchester club. ~-Henigan announced that this was his last appearance in athletic competition as he intended to enlist in the army.

Whether the proposed player limit of 18 will be affected by the aban- donment of the 140-game schedule idea, remains to be seen. Sentiment against the proposed limit, however, crystalized late last week and at this writing there seems to be little like- liheod that it will become a law. A Measure of Economy. N the other hand the major league club owners have consistently ‘discussed the advisability of adopt- ing every conceivable measure that would make for economy next season. That is precisely what the 18-player limit is intended to be, and it ts barely possible that the throttling of the short schedule may strengthen the po- sition of the suggested player limit, and it may be put up as a compromise ett the league season will s@ with a feature contest. An of the geason is the play- tie games in the afternoon in- f at night, as heretofore It mt that this will increase in- fand High goes to the post of the six players who the championship to the year.

ANAGER JACK HEN- DRICKS of the Indian- apolis Baseball Club today expressed more confidence than @ver that he would be p!- loting @ major league club-next Season. Aang the Tribe Pilot had good reasons for the encourage- ment. It camé in a brief con- ference with Branch Rickey, president of the St. Louis Car- dinals, at tle Union Station here today. The Card boss is on his way to New York for the National League meeting. Rickey did not come out Openly’ with another offer for Hendricks’ services, but he did state that the managerial posi- tion at St. Louis wag still open. Rickey and Hendricks will meet again in New York at the ses- sion of the magnates in the Tener circuit, although it is not likely that anything definite will be done unless the Indianap- olis franchise passes out of Mc- Gill’s control or ene Indianapo- Iis owner changes his mind about holding Hendricks to his contract. eeEe—Geeeeeee eee { EE rena mn ESE ee CC a a a a _— eS Eee tion with the National League and adopt identical plans. No Pooling of Players. HE pooling of players, a scheme suggested to relieve clubs which enlistments or draft calls, will be voted down at the coming meeting. The Post-Dispatch has it on high authority that such an idea will not be given even casual consideration at either of the league meetings. Aside from the issue of “synédi- cate” baseball which would be in- volved in such a rule, a man high in the councils of the national pastime has shown that the plan is not prac- tical, principally because it is un- just to draw on a club which might be fn the thick of the pennant race to aid a rival club with no chance for championship honors. Thus, the pennant races in 1918 again will be a “survival of the fit- test” affair ag they have been in the past. In arguing against the pro- posal to shift players to maintain an equalization of strength, it is peinted eut that ne such steps were taken during the days of the Federal League and it is belfeved that neither majer etreuit yill sufftr amy mere from lows of players te war than they did during the days of the outiaw “raids.” Salaries May Be Sliced. The matter of salaries ts one that seems destined to occupy the center of interest at the eeoming meetings. Club owners of both major leagues are not hiding the fact that stipends next season will have to seek a lower level. Whether action by the league as a unit willl be taken or whether it will be left to the individual clut owners to effect the saving as best they can, remains to be seen. In this connection, three measures are likely to come up for considera- tion. They are: Possible establishment of a sal- ary limit. Insertion of a clause in players’ contracts terminating sdlary lia- bility once an athlete is called in the draft. Contracting players for the “duration of the season,”’ mean- ing, of course, that if the strain becomes too great and magnates are forced to close the gates, the Player's salary will automatically Tektready has been shown that Na- tional League magnates contemplate no form.of a war clause in their con- tracts. The owners claim that the fn- sertion of such a clause would make it appear they do not contemplate going through an entire season in 1918, and this, they say, is farthest from their minds. ; However, there is no doubt but that they will be presented at the meet- ings, and are mentioned here for this Training Trips. ve s@atement has frequently been may suffer more than others- frem Mutual Problems Radical Legislative Measures Are | Planned — Retrenchment Moves. Certain in Leagues. adopt a rule establishing a limit to the duration of training seasons. Whether this proposal will come up | for consideration is not known, but there is small chance for its passage should it be offered, as this is regard- ed as the concérn of the magnate and not a topic requiring league action. Three ma tes have announced that they have made plans for spring training trips next season. They are Charlies A. Comiskey of the White Sox, Charles H. Ebtetts of the Dodg- ers, and Benjamin S. Minor of the Senators, indicating that the sugges- tion to limit the spring jaunts fs not) being given much consideration. The National League also will hold its annual election of officers this! week. This, of course, is a mere formality. John K. Tener, incumbent president, will be re-elected without opposition, as he already has been asked to continue in office by & ma- | Jority of the magnates. John 8S, Heyd-.- ler, secretary and treasurer of the National League also is due for fPe- election. The personnel of the board of directors also will remain the game, as this is composed of the club owners. There is a move on foot! now to cloak Tener with more authority than any National League president has heretofore possessed. The magnates im the older circuit are beginning to realise that its legislative methods long since have outlived their. useful- mess and they are inclined to give Tener as much authority as Ban Johnson possesses in-—the - American League. A. L. to Elect Officers. In the American League, it will be necessary to elect a vice president and choose a new board of directors. Charlies A. Comiskey is at present vige president of the junior circuit | and it is not known who is the most likely candidate to succeed him. H. H. Frazee, Charlies A. Comiskey, James C. Dunn and Jacob Ruppert comprise the present board of direc- tors. Because several railroads have no tified baseball officials that it will be necessary to revise transportation arrangements in 1918, this phase of next esason also will be placer be- ‘fore the magnates in their conven- tions. However, there is hardly likely to be any definite steps along these lines, as they are considered too remote for immediate consideration. The transportation problem will more than likely be threshed out at the schedule meetings of the two leagues slated in January.

BELGIUM BUILDS TS ARMY UP 10 200.000 TROOPS Had Only 117,000 at Start of War; Refugees and Volunteers Are Added. MAKES MUCH EQUIPMENT Portion of Line It Holds Grows | Longer as Force Is | Strengthened. HAVRE, Nov. 15 (by mail).—Ten divisions strong, the Belgian army its / ready to take its part in the offensive in Flanders whenever the word is given. . The Belgian Minister of War today told the Associated Press that the Belgian army was composed of 117,000 men at the beginning of the war, increased by 20,000 volunteers in August, 1914, and reduced to 69,- /000 men after the battle of the Yser. | Since then by the enrollment of Bel- gian refugees and thé enlistment of volunteers who have braved the live- wire barriers "on the Holland frontier it has been brought up to 10 divisions (about 200,000 men) of well-trained troops. “If our army has. not undertaken ‘operations of a wider scope up to this time,’ said the Minister, “it is because it does not devolve on it to decide the moment when these oper- ations should begin. The army is only a part of the combined allied forces, acting in unison and in ac- cordance with developed plans. The army valiantly has filled the role, more ungrateful than glorious, that has been assigned to it. It has just proved by its brilliant participation in the last offensive in Flanders that it is ready to attack with fer- vor and awaits impatiently the hour.” ORE IS ioe 5 ae Tce Lacked Equipment at First. Summarizing the work of the Bel- gian army during the war and refer- ring to its difficulties and lack of equipment, the Minister recalled that in August, 1914, the army had only one machine gun for each 1000 men, only three field guns per 400 men, with ammunition for only about 800 shots for each piece. It had no light mortars, no heavy artillery, no gre- nades, no trench equipment, no am- bulances, no pontoon crews and not a single motor cycle. It had only 1000 bicycles, two captive balloons, a few superannuated airplanes and a few posts of wireless telegraphy. “We had only 32,000 infantry after the battle of the Yser,’ said the Minister, “and its equipment was in a pitiable state. Munitions were lacking and all of the different or- ganisms were deranged when the army base was transferred to for:3ign soil. This remnant of an army not only barred the way to Calais, but while doing so was reorganized ard reinforced until now it counts three times the number of men that the battle of the Yser left valid. Front Gradually Extended. “The front held by the Belgian army has been gradually lengthened from about 12% miles after the bat- tle of the Yser to 17 miles in Janu- ary, 1915, 18 miles at the beginning of March and about 19 miles in June, 1916. “The Belgian army organized this front and held it alone until the mid- dle of this year when, as a conse- quence of the operation of the al- lied offensive in Flanders, it was re- duced, enabling thé army to dis- pose of considerable reserves. The g.gantic task of organizing defenses in this part of the front, where water appears as soon as the ground is scratched, has been described fre- quently. Other lines of strong de- fense were not only built there by the Belgian army but all of the necessary communications with the rear were constructed, with barracks and hospitals. “In August, 1917, the army had 12 times as many machine guns as in 1914, seven times as many field suns and heavy pieces, with five times aS much ammunition as was on hand at the outset of hostilities. Partly Equipped Itself. “The impression that has gotten abroad that the Belgian army was reorganized and re-equipped entirely by our allies is an error,” he added. “Belgium, exiled and deprived of all her resources, received generous hospitality and powerful. aid from her glorious allies. It was on French and British soil that all was to be done; but the Belgians themselves took up the work of reconstruction. The Belgian army created by its own efforts the greater part of what was indispensable for it to live and fight. It is building its own cannon, making its own powder and its own projec- tiles.”’ DRUGGISTS DENY ANTI-TOXIN President of Association Says Diph- theria Remedy Costs Dealers $5 a Dose. Frederick H. Swift, president of the St. Louis Retail Druggists’ As- sociation, denies charges in an after- noon newspaper that St. Louis drug- gists have been selling diphtheria anti-toxin, which costs $2.25 a dose, at $7.50. The fact is, Swift declares, the anti-toxin sold for $7.50 costs the druggists $5. The published allegation was that the price had been advanced be- cause an epidemic of diphtheria had created a demand for the serum. Choir to Sing Psalm.

Thousands of odd shoes, muddy and worn and torn, are sorted into pairs and cleaned, repaired and made ready to be issued again. Some- times they cannot be used as soldiers’ marching boots and then the uppers are refitted to wooden soles, forming clogs which are much appreciated by {the soldiers during their service in wet and muddy trenches. Odd pieces of leathér are stamped out into but- | tons for the prisoners’ uniforms. More than 6000 women are em- ployed in this depot alone. A few figures as to the results ob- ‘| tained in this depot will demonstrate the economic value of the system adopted. Two thousand cartiridge pouches are repaired on an average every day at a cost of about one cent each, whereas new ones would cost '80 cents each. By the repair of soiied and torn sheepskin jackets a profit of $1500 daily is made. The mending of overcoats saves the Gov- ernment about $3000 daily. With pieces of cloth cut from old uniforms the women make $000 pairs of cloth eitppers daily, each pair worth 40 cents, while by plecing together old aboes 600 pairs of new ones are madc every day. MISSISSIPPI] CELEBRATES RAISING CATTLE QUARANTINE | Restrictions Imposed in 1906 Raised After 13,660 Square Miles of Territory Are Freed of Fever Tick Pest. JACKSON, Miss., Dec. 8.—Beef cattle in Mississippi have attained a value of from $8 to $10 higher and dairy cattle may be considered worth from $40 to $60 more a head since the quarantine has been raised in Mississippi, according to experts of the Federal and the State depart- ments of agricul pated in the celebration here of the official notification from Washington that Mississippi now is free of the Texas fever tick. Among the speak- lers at the celebration which was held in the House of Representatives, State Capitol, were Gov. Theodore Bilbo, Clarence Ousley, assistant to Secretary of Agriculture Houston, Commissioner of Agriculture Garner of Mississippi and others.. Working with the Federal authori- ties State agents since 1906 have cleared 13,660 square miles of cattle ticks. Ousley asserted that in the South there now is a total of 62,520 square miles of territory out of quar- rantine, but there remain 349,253 square miles to be cleared. Commissioner Garner pointed out that the raising of the quarantine would fnsure higher prices automat- jeally for Mississippi co-operative marketing association, conducted by boys’ cattle clubs.

Upon the overthrow of Na- | poleon in 1814, after nearly 25 years of uninterrupted war, the allied | ' Powers signed with France on May | 30 the first Peace of Paris, agree- ing that within two months all Pow- ers which had been engaged in the war on either side should send pleni- potentiaries to Vienna to settle, at a general Congress, the arrange- ments required by the treaty of peace. The Congress did not open till November, and more than a hundred Sovereigns and Ministers gathered to take part in the scram- ble for territory that would ensue. The Congress itself never met, as ‘guch; the business was transacted | entirely by committees appointed by the five great Powers—aAustria, Great Britain, France, Prussia and ‘Russia. Included on some of their | less important committees were the | | Ministers of Spain, Sweden and | Portugal. Jealousies became 40 | acute on every hand that weeks dragged into months with nothing accomplished. The exaggerated claims of Prussia and Russia, act- ing in coneert, drove Austria. Great | | Britain and France into a secret al- ‘Hance on Dec. 3, threatening a re- 'newal of the war. Rights of Rulers Retognized. In March, 1815, the sudden re- ‘turn of Napeoleon from Elba, for Congress from its deadlock and com- | pelled common action. In their con- fidence, however, the diplomatista continued to bargain while the Gen- ban took to the field. On June 7 —l1il days before Waterloo—the Jodat treaties were signed ‘whereby the map of Europe was 'made over upon the dominant prin- | eipl of legitimacy, a principle recog- nizing the rights of rulers in contra- cere Rew to the rights of peoples. | Among other iniquities the Con- | gress was guilty of were to confirm the extinguishment of Poland to link up in a single unnatural king- | dom the Belgians and the Dutch, to hand over Norway io Sweden as a subject province, to dismember Sax- a for the aggrandizemeont of Prus- As Taliyrand, the French plenipo- tentiary, said truly, but not disin- terestedly im his brilliant argument against the absorption of Saxony by Prussia: “In order to establish the legiti- macy of this disposition it must be |! shown * * °* that the principle of confiscation, which the most en- FY lightened nations have banished from their municipal codes, ought to be tmcorporated into the general law of Burope, as if the confiscation of a kingdom were less odious than that of the humblest ccttage. “Tt must be shown that nations have no rights distinct from their sovereigns, and may be likened to, flocks and herds attached to the | i i f < Mi z Mi z < x f ¥ ef f x Mi # ¥ Mi ty i ' | By Dad Sak al Sak ak al alk all Se a "ak ak a a a a as a as ag Cit at atk Fac at at a Cae ae a ie at Buettner’s—for Practical Gifts And practical gifts are sensible gifts, this Christmas above all others.

Kokomo, Ind. — Announcing the -Mature Twenty thousand Haynes owners have driven America’s Greatest Light Six engine the astounding distance of a quarter billion miles since July, 1914. In those forty months of terrifie usage but a few minor betterments have proved possible. UR quarter-century of successful experience satisfies us that the Haynes engine is mechanically mature—a “gem” of engineering achievement. We can only improve its “setting.” Added Exterior Beauties The new Haynes hood is broad-chested and high. The lines are straight. The weather - tight windshield tilts rakishly. There is a double cowl. Beige brown, deep carmine or royal green are the colors for the dashing four- passenger roadsters and the open cars for either five or seven. All-season sedans, town cars and coupes may also be had m a variety of colors. Charming Interior Refinements The tonneau cowl panel in the seyen- passenger car is of beautiful American walnut.

During the holiday season the question of ithe distribution of food and clothing for the needy has been the big ques- tion that Kas faced every. community. There has always been plenty to give but ohly a few to deliver the gifts to the needy ones. Investigation work is always necessary on such occasions. Motor car owners have a better op- portunity toe show their spirit in such a_plan than any other group of per- ‘sons. Since. the motor car is being -used more and more as a means to more work and doing it in a shorter space of time, this plan can be. car- ried on with little effort. There has always been a lack of organization for just such a work, and with a little help this plan can be worked on with much success.

He looked swiftly, and searchingly, at Anthony. “Why do you say coward?” he asked sharn'y. ‘I was not going to use that word.” Anthony was obviously disconcerted. “It came to me,” he said hurriedly. “Why ?” “Any man who brings a4 girl to the dust is a «o vard.” “a~h!—that’s not what you meant,” Sergius said. Anthony stole a glanec at the clock. The hand crawled slowly over the quarter of an hour past 10. “No, it was not,” he said slowly. IV. Sergius got up from his chair and stood by the fire. He was obviously becoming engrossed by the conversation.| Anthony could at least notice this with thankfulness. “anthony, I see you've got a fresh knowledge of Vernon since I was with you yesterday,” Sergius con- tinued, “seme new knowledge of bis nature.” ‘Perhaps I have.” ~ “Dees that matter?’ 7 “You have heard of something about him’ “No.” : “You have seen him, then. him?” Anthony hesitated. He pushed the champagne bottle over towards Sergius. It had been placed on a little table near the fireplace. ; “Ne, I don't want to drink. Why on earth don't you answer me, Anthony?” “T have always felt that Vernon was a coward. His conduct, too, shows it. He was-—or seemed—your friend. He saw you deeply in love with this—-with Oiga. He chose to ruim her after he knew of your love.

The motion looked as if it were made In obed!- ence to some fiercely monotonous musia “Yes, more—I knew it.” Sergius nodded. : ‘“T see,’ he said.

Freinhe-rn von forstner, who for two years was Commander of the first of the Kaiser’s submersibles, the U-1. put his journal into book form in 1916. It has the appearance of having heen publish -d for a limited number of reader®, and certainly is too open te have been intended for alien eyes. It evidently was written with haste, in discon- nected and sometimes widely separated moments of leisure. The style for the most: part is rather monot- onous, though occasonally rising to a plane of elo- quence. The chief value of the journal, perbaps, is that its pictures apvarently are true. Reading between the lines the Commander may be supposed not to be lacking in fine and manly virtues. He is a good officer, thoughtful for the- welfare of those under him and even kindly to docile captives; but he leaves no doubt of his exalted devotion to the Almighty War Lord, and he reveals clearly the fanat- ical joy of both himself and his men, regardless of their victims, when they are successful in their work. Two of the best descriptions'contained in the jour- nal are a brief one of a storm at‘se& and a more lengthy one of his. fight with and destruction of .the British steamer Vosges. The Commander had been ordered to operate at the western entrance to the English Chan- nel and proceeded there from a home port, sinking sev- eral vessels on the way through the channel. “The ocean seemed to rejoice at our coming,” he wrote, “and revealed itself to us in all the glory of a March storm. Only those who have seen such a storm can realize its proud majesty. The gigantic blue-black waves, with their shining crests lashed by the west wind, came rushing onwards into the open mouth of the channel, and the hemmed-in waters, roaring and surging, dashed themselves against the sharp, rocky points of the French coast, or broke less violently but in ceaseless unrest on the chalk “ ee Z , we A ies .

The wind had fallen somewhat and the sun was shining. The vessel, which Was headed for Cardiff. ran when signaled to stop. “Even after we had fired a warning shot,” the jour- nal reads, “she tried by rapid and tortuous curves, to return to her former course, and endeavor thereby to reach her home port. -Meantime she sent up rockets as signals of distress in quick succession, to draw the attention of British patrol ships. This obliged us to fire a decisive shot, and with a loud report our first shell struck the ship close to the captain’s bridge. In- stead of resigning himself to his fate, the Englishman sent ip more signals and hoisted the British flag. This showed us he was game and the fight began in dead earnest. “Circling around us, he tried to ram us with his prow, and we avoided him by turning in the same di- rection. Every time he veered about he offered us his broadside for a shot; and with well-directed aim we took advantage of this target, and our successful fire gave him full proof of the skill of our gunners. “The latter had a hard time of it: the high seas’ poured over the low dec’, and they continually stood Ree wore ine : - % : iq FAO os re ig oe See ay pete — ; ~~ oo oe | aes ee poe et nag oar ps hs See a ae "ak * Sh. x. 3 ey. 2 pf rie Ds, 2 ae Se ee Rw a? > aoe ia ee pS i.

They were on the way to England. They were the Batavian IV and the Zaanstroom, and their cargoes were made up chiefly of foodstuffs. Hundreds of saifl-.~ ors and soldiers, the Commander says, were required to unload them. Among the provisions taken from the holds he mentions quantities of newly slaughtered pigs, sheep and ducks, which were distributed among various regiments of soldiers; 200 barrels of best Munich beer, whose disposition he does not disclose, except that two barrels of it found their way into his own craft, and 4400 boxes of fresh eggs, with 1800 eggs to each box. He was told that every man in the northern army re- ceived eight eggs from the seizure for Easter. | Both of the Dutch steamers were captured off the eastern English coast, the Patavian first. When he tock her the Commander decided to try the long trip to Zeebrugee with her, having cliffs of England, which glimmered white in the rays of the sun. ’ “Tt is a splendid sight to watch this great spectacle from the high deck of a steamer as it plows its way through the foaming flood, or to be borne aloft on the top of the waves with a ship under full sail, but it is still more wonderful to be- hold nature’s great display from the half-submerged conning tower of 8 U-boat, and to dive through the mountainous breakers until they close gurgling over our heads and hide us from all curious glances. Our little nutshell, in perpetual mo- tion, is drawn down into the deep valleys of the ocean waves, or tossed upwards on the comb of the following breaker. We are soaked to the skin, and the spray covers us like a silvery veil; our boat as well as ourselves is daubed with a . salt crust, our eyes smart and our lips have a briny tang, but to us sailors it’s a joy to be the sport of the wild waves.” The morning after arriving at his field of operations the Com SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST.

The Commander was doubtful of the wisdom of abandon- ing his first prize long enough to -try for the second, but decided to do so. He ordered the Batavian fo con- tinue slowly on her course, so that she could be overtaken by the sub- marine later, and her captain evi- dently considered it the part of dis- cretion to obey. In half an hour the Zaanstroom, which carried the great cargo of eggs, was caught and an officer and a stoker put aboard as a prize crew, it being tmpossibie to spare another sallor.

It is my heart—no, it is my stomach. I debate the ques- tion calmly. Someone has said the seat of the soul lie#in the solar plexus. He is right.

I fall back and am curiously reluctant to make a fresh effort. The fire may slacken a bit if I wait. A strident Sergeant damns my blank, blinking eves and bids me get on.

My right hand touches some- thing soft and warm. It is my right hand file. He is or. his side spouting blood from a softly cursing mouth. I pause to give him aid, but the raucous Sergeant again damns my eyes and I depart. A few steps brings me to a youth sitting up and laughing.

I have the usual stock of reminiscences. For instance: I went to Es- meraida early. I purchased largely in the “Wide West,” “Winnemucca” and other fine claims, and was very wealthy. I. fared sumptuously on bread when flour was $200.a barrel and had beans for dinner every extensions. But I didn’t.

Waging Ruthless Submarine War hour and a half the Batavian was joined and then the Commander had the difficult task of getting the two steamers into Mfie at a given distance apart and to steam at the same speed. . “]ske a shepherd dog herding his flock,” he wrote, “I. had to cruise round my two captives and force them to steer a straight and even course, for one tried oc- casionally to outdistance the other, probably with the desire to escape in the foggy weather.” However, with the persuasion of his cannons he suc- ceeded in having his\orders obeyed and took the two vessels safely through the mine fields and the sand- banks off the coast of Flanders and delivered them as captives to the port authorities at Zeebrugee. . The Commander’s attitude toward his victims is ex- pressed in his o words as follows: “T have often hands with the gunner who had fired the last deadly shot (at a ship), for we waste no emotion.over our adversary’s fate. With every en- emy’s ship sent to bottom, one hope of the hated foe is annihilated. We simply pay off our account against their criminal wish to starve all our people, our women and our children, as they are unable to beat us in open fight with polished steel. Ought we not therefore rejoice in our justifiable satisfaction?” * “q'hie comment followed a description of the bombard- -; ment-of-the British steamer Leuwarden, and the Com- ~ “Taanider inhis Journal exults at, the success of a shot directed ‘at the véssel’s water’ line, and that the “dear old boat will soon lie at ‘the bottom of the sea,” car- ried down by the mighty jets of water let into her hull through the hole made by the shot. ‘ Not the least interesting part of Commander von Forstner’s journal is his picture of the conditions under which the men live when at sea in a U-boat. Answer- ing the question as to how it is possible to breathe under the water, he points out that the actual. amount of air in a submarine remains unchanged from the moment of submersion, and there ts no possibility, either through ventilators or any other device so far known to draw in fresh air under the water. However, the ordinary atmosphere can be endured for a con- siderable time, and then can be purified from the car- bonic gas exhalations by releasing oxygen into it, so that it is possible, he says, to stay submerged “several days;” he does not undertake to say how many. The cleansing of the atmosphere with oxygen is costly and is done only us @ last resort, and every precaution is taken to conserve the oxygen. The occupations of the crew largely determine atmos- pheric conditions. A man working, the Commander states, will absorb 85 liters of air in an hour, inactive mer less. sleening men ‘least of all—15 liters. (A SUNDAY MAGAZINB—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH—DECEMBER 9, 1917. CT epee eeiemneaieal liter is about 2.1 American pints.) The members of a drilled’ crew, therefore, according to the Commander, are expected to sleep all the time they are off duty under the sea. He relates that he had-a wireless operator, whose duties ceased with submersion, who had so perfected the art of sleeping that he never cost more than 15 liters of air an hour underseas. Every available corner of space inside a submarine is filled with provisions. The cook, a sa!lor trained for the job, must hunt below in every conceivable place for his vegetables and meats. The latter are stored in the coolest quarters, next to munitions. The scavsages are put next to the red grenades, the butter lies next to one of the sailor’s bunks, and the salt and spice have been known to stray into the Commander’s cabin, below his berth. A submarine under water, the Commander says, must, like an airplane, be kept at the proper level, and the boat’s weight on a long voyage is continually changing and must be constantly watched. Food is devoured, diving material of the machinery consumed and the water in which the boats swims itself changes weight. The officer in charge of this department even calculates the weight of the meal eaten by each miem- ber of the crew and of the remains of the food and the boxes which contajned it, but which have been thrown overboard. : ae The Commander of a submarine, Von Forstner says, is on duty during the whole of the time-on an expedi- tion in time of war, and seldom gets a chance for rest in his tiny cabin. Day and night, if there is the slight- est suspicion of the approach of the enemy, he watches on the exposed bridge on top of the turret: for a few seconds’ delay in submerging might forfeit the taking. of a coveted prize. So he learns to do without sleeping, or to catch a few seconds of repose by lying down in his wet clothes. The members of the crew are entirely ignorant of their surroundings when undersea. They are dependent wholly on the Commander, who must possess their absolute confidence. A graphic word picture of what takes place on a U-boat at the moment of an attack is painted by the Commander, He describes how the craft goes down to the prescribed depth for firing a torpedo, with the top ‘of the periscope just above the-waves, and continues: “Silently the boat advanees against the enemy. Alert and speechless, every man on board awaits a sign from the Commander in the turret. Now that the periscope is nearly on a level with the waters some time may elapse before the adversary becomes visible again. The nervous tension of the expectant crew increases every minute. At last is heard a joyous cry from the Com- manda, ‘The fellows are coming,’ and after one qnick I BAS AE AMD a et “TS RRA = ne (Continued from Page 3.) "> giance to locate the enemy exactly, the periscope is lowered. “Now, every heart beats with happy anticipation and every nerve quivers with excitement. The Captain qnic’ ly iseues his orders for the nec*ssary navigation. The officer in charge of the torpedoes receives the command to clear the loaded torpedo for f'ring. “Many thoughis fly throuch the Commander’s brain, Here, among his companions, the annihilation of the enemy will cause joyful enthusiasm, wh!le among them their. downfal) will cause overwhelming sorrow. Only a man who has experienced these sensations ‘ nows how Many secondary matters occur to him at such a4 time. With lowered periscope he sees nothing, and like a blind man the boai feels its way throieh the green flood. Every possible event becomes a subject of con- jecture. Will the fellow continue on the same course? Has he seen our periscope in the second it was ex- posed and is he running away? Or will he put on full steam and try to run us down with a death stroke from his prow? , ‘ “At such an instant of high nervons tension | have caught myself giving superfluous orders to let myw!f rejax, and yet I knew that every man was at his post * * * all his thought centered like mine on the fir- ing of our. first torpedo. of the boat, the torpedo officer announces, “Torpedo ready!’ and the Captain, ‘after one more quick glance through the periscope, shouts, ‘Fire!’ _- 3 ae “For a few seconds we remain in anxious suspense, until a dull report provokes throughout the boat c fo. the Kaiser and for empire, and.by this report we know ‘the fat Bertha’” (nickname for a kind of tor- pedo) “has reached unhindered her destination.

The compilation has been made by Albert Bigelow Paine, Twain's biographer and personal friend, and incorporated in two volumes, “Mark Twain's Let- ters” (Harper € Brothers). There are several hundred letters tn the volumes, covering the period from the time Twain was a callow youth of 17 down to just a few days before his death. The ones reproduced here were chosen with a view > a to diversity; to presenting Mark Twain in as many moods as possible. He was a man who had his shere of troubles: he saw a big fortune swept away ; sickness ~ ‘was almost a constant visttor in his household, and he saw one after another of his family taken away by death until only one, a daughter, remained, but, though these things struck deep, one soon finds in his letters those humorous passages which he could not for long | keep from any of his writings, After a service of two weeks in the Confederaie army, Mark Twain, accompanied by his brother. decided to try his fortune in Nevada.

His brother, Orton, was a@ constant trial to Mark Twain, though the latter sympathized deep- ly with his shortcomings and usually found some humor in them.

The following was written on the occasion of her thirtieth birth- day: Livy Darling: Six years have passed since | made my first great success in life and won you, and 30 years have passed since Providence made preparation for that happy success by sending you into the world.

L. ©. * * Twain's absent-mindedness frequently got him into trouble, and in the following letter to Mra. Grover Cleveland we find him apologising tn his naive way for a lapse of memory which caused him to commét a ‘serious faus pas: My Dear Madam: I do not know how it ia in the White House, but in this house of ours, whenever the minor half of the administration triés.to run itself without the help of the major half it gets aground. Last night when I was offered the opportunity to assist you in the throwing open of the Warner Brothers’ superb benefaction in Bridgeport to those fortunate women, I naturally appreciated the honor done me, and promptly seized my chance. I had an engagement, but the circumstances washed it out of my mind. If I had only laid the matter before the major half of the administration on the spot, there would have been no blunders; but I never thought of that. So when [ did lay it before her, later, I realized once morc that it will not do for the literary fraction of a combination to try to manage affairs which properly belon, ia the business bulk of it. I suppose the President . often acts just lie that: goes and makes an im ossible promise, and you never find it ont until it is aext to ‘impossible to break it up and set things etrvicht agaiu. Well, that is just our way, exactly—one-hal{ of the ad ministration always busy getting the feamil). ini» ,troublé and the other half busy getting it out agalji:. And so we do seem to be pretty much alile, af-er ai. The fact is, I had forgotten that we were to ha‘: a dii- ner party on that Bridgeport date—I thought it was the next day: Which is a good deal of an improvement for me, because I am more used to being behind a day or two than ahead. But that is just the difference be- tween one end of this kind of an administration and the other end of it, as you have noticed, yourself—the other end does not forget these things. Just so with a funeral; if it is the man’s funeral, he is most always there, of course—but that is no credit to him, hs wouldn't be there if you depended on HIM to remem- ber about it; whereas, if, on thé other hand—but I eec-= to have got off from my line of argument sothehow: never mind about the funeral.

It passed away, evaporat- $mg among the pictures and ornaments, the prayer yugs and divans. A clearness and an insight came to Sergius. He stood still by the piano; on which he rested one hand lightly, and listened. The rain drops pattered close by. Beyond them rose the dull music of the evening traffic of New Bond street, in which thor- - pughfare he lived. As he stood thus at attent’on, his young and handsome face seemed carvéd in stone. His lips were set in a hard and straight line. His dark gray eyes started. lite the eyes in a photograph. The muscles of his long-fingered hands were tense and knotted. He was in evening dress, and had been en- gaged to dine in Curzon street, but h> had written a hasty note to say that he was ill and covld not come. Another appointment claimed him. He had made it for himself. . Presently, lifting h's hand from the piano, be too’ up a emall leather case from a table that stood near, opened it and drew out a revolver. He examined it carefully. Two chambers were loaded. They could be made enough. He put-on his long overcoat and slipped the revolver into his left breast pocket. ‘His heart could beat against it there. Each time his heart pulsed Sergius seemed to hear the silence of another heart. And now, though his mind was quite clear, and the mists and shadows had slink away, his familjgr room looked very peculiar to him. Even the chair in which he generally sat wore the aspect of a stranger. Was the wall paper really blue? Sergius went up . close to it and examined it narrowly, and then he drew ~ back and laughed softly, like a child. In the sound of his laugh irresponsibility chimed. “What is the cab fare to Phil- limore Place, Kensington?” he _ i thought, searching in his ther | waistcoat pocket. “Two: shil- 1 lings.” He put the coin care- fully in the ticket pocket of his overcoat, buttoned the coat up slowly, took his hat and stick, and drew on a pair PAGE SIX ide has probe br is ina Het Ree rman slog Te hannin He looked into the mirror over the and saw Sergius, while removing : coat, transfer something from it to the left breast pocket of his evening coat.

He had passed'him in an instant, and arrived at the place where Sergius was sta)ding. “Sergius,” he cried, and there was a great music of relief in his voice. “Huilo! Now you’re not going out.” “Yes, | am, Anthony.” ‘‘But | want to talk to you tremendously. vou going?” “To dine with the Venables, in Curzon street.” “T met .oung Venables just now, and he said you’d written that you were ill and couldn’ t come. He asked me to fill your plaee.” Where are bis aver Sergius muttered a “Damn!” under his breath. ‘Well, come in for a minute,” he said, attempting ne excuse, He turned round slowly and re-entered his flat, fol- lowed by Endover. if. For some years Endover had been Sergius Biake’s close friend. They had left Eton at the same time, and had been at Oxford together. Their intimacy, born in the playing fields, grew out of its cricket and football stage as their minds developed, and the world of thought opened like a holy of holies—beyond the world of action. They both passed behind the veil, but Anthony went farther than Sergius. Yet this slight separation did not lead to alienation, but merely caused the admiration of Sergius for his friend to be mingled with respect. He looked up to Anthony. Recognizing that his friend’s mind was more thoughtful than his own, while his passions were far stronger than An- thony’s, he grew to lean upon Anthony, to claim his advice sometimes, to follow it often. Anthony wes his mentor, and thought he knew instinctively all the workings of Sergius’ mind and all the possibilities of his nature. The mother of Sergius was a Russian and a great heiress. Soon after he left Oxford she died. His father had been killed by an accident when he was a child. So he was rich, free, young, in London, with no one to look after him, until Anthony Endover, who had meanwhile*taken orders, was attached as fourth or fifth curate to a smart West End church, and came to live in lodgings in George street, Hanover Square. Then, as Sergius laughingly said, he had a father confessor on the premises. Yet tonight he had bidden his porter to teli a lie in order to keep his father con- fessor out. The lie had been vain. Sergius led the way morosely into the drawing room and turned.on the light. Anthony walked up to the fire and stretched his tall, athletic figure in its long ebon coat. His firm throat rose out of a jam-pot collar, but his thin, strongly marked face rather suggested an intellectual Hercules than a Mayfair parson, and neither his voice nor his manner was tinged with what so many people consider the true -clericalism. For all that he was a splendid curate, as his rector very well knew. Now he stood by the fire for a minute in silence, while Sergius moved — about the room. Pres- ently he turned “It’s beastly wet,” he said, in a melodious, ringing voice. “The black dog is on me tonight, Sergius.” “Oh!” “¥ou doen't want to go out, really,” Anthony con- tinued, looking at his friend’s curiously rigid face. “Yes, I do.” “Not to Curzon street. They’ve filled up your place. I told Venables to ask Montgomery. I knew he was disengaged tonight. Besides, you're seedy.” “I'm all right again now,” he said coldly, “and | particularly wished to ge. You needn't have been so deuced anxious to make the number right.” “Well, it’s done now. And I can’t say I'm sorry, be- cause I want to have a talk with you.

there’s any excitement. W-w-what are you do?” “Gather up the guns first of all.” Under Sheldon’s directions the housbeys bosses collected the scattered arms and piled | a heap on the verandg. The modern rifles, stolen from Lunga, Sheldon set aside; the Sniders he smashed into the pile of spears, clubs and tomahawks he presented to Joan. “A really unique addition to your tion,” he smiled; “picked up right on the battlefield.” Down on the beach, he built a bonfire out of the con- tents of the canoes, his blacks smashing, breaking and looting everything they laid hands on. “The canoes’ themselves, splintered and broken, filled with sand and coral boulders, were towed out toe ten fathoms of water and sunk. , - “Ten fathoms will be deep enough for them to work in’’ Sheldon said, as they walked back to the com- pound. Here a Saturnalia had broken loose. The war songs and dances were- more unrestrained, and, from abuse, the plantation blacks had turned to pelting their helpless foes with pieces of weod, handfuls of pebbles and chunks of coral roek. And the 75 lustg cannibals clung stoically to their tree perches, enduring the rain of missiles and snarling down prom- ises of vengeance. : “There'll be wars for 40 years on and w faint, i niscent of the Cockney, of any e had ever were, they were self-made men, she felt the impulse te at into their hands im a business way. be merciless. . * ve ‘4 a *. “ ae ‘ — wee e ‘ iy t aie i ae cy iare we EE cena ae 6 * . * a AO oh Re as Pan 4 ae te x ing. The Jessie and our stations came very near to paying the running ex- penses of Berande.” “And Morgan and Raff offered vou what?” “A thousand pounds clear, afier pay- ing all bilis.” ey “The thieves!” she cried. : “No, they're good business men. that is all. As they told me, a thing is worth no more than one is willing to pay or to receive.” “And how much do you need to car- ry on Berande for three years?” Joan hurried on. “Two hundred boys at 6 pounds a year means 3600 pounds—that’s the main item.” “My! how cheap labor does mount up. - Thirty-six hundred pounds, $18,- 000, just for a lot of cannibals! Yet the place is good security. You could 0 down to Sydney and raise the money.” He shook his head. “You can’t get them to look at plantations down there. They’ve been tazen in too often. But I do hate to give the place up—more for Hughit’s sake, I~ swear, than my own. He was bound up in it. You see, he was a persistent chap, and “hated to acknow!l- edge defeat. it—it makes me uncomfortable to think of it myself. We were running slowly behind, but with the Jessie we hoped to muddle through in some fashion.” nas : “You were muddiers, the pair of you, without doubt. But you needn’t sell to Morgan and Raff. 1 shall go down to Sydney on the next steamer. and Ill come back in a seeond-hand schooner. I should be able to buy one for five or six thousand dollars’’-—— He held up his baad in protest, but she waved it aside. “I May manage to freight a cargo back as well. At any rate, the schooner will take over the Jensie's business. You can make your arrangements accord- ingly, and have plenty of work for her when 1} get back.

He looked at her with good-natured anwusement. “You know I sailed here ali the way from Tahiti in order to become a planter,” she insisted. “You know what my plans were. Now I've changed them, that’s all. I'd rather be a part owner of Berande and get my returns in three years than break ground on . Pari-Sulay and wait seven years.” ‘4 (Continued on Page 14.)
