HURLEY. Chairman of United States Shipping Board. | ITH the battle front 300 miles away, tonnage is the vital | factor of America’s partici- Pation in the war. To supply this tonnage the Shipping Board, during the first year of the war, has: 1. Taken over and repaired Ger- man and Austrian vessels interned in American waters. 2. Requisitioned American riers of 2500 tons or over. 6. Embarked upon a great. ship- building program of steel and wood vessels. An aggregate tonnage of 600,000 was added to the American merchant marine by the seizure of interned vessels. The first step in the con- struction program was the organiza- tion of a $50,000,000 corporation, known as the United States Shipping Board Emergency Fleet Corporation. Vessels already under construction or contract were requisitioned and con- tracts were placed for additional! ton- nage, until at the present time the board’s program calls for the con- struction of 1,000,000 tons of wood and steel! vessels. For the calendar of 1916 the to cal production of merchant shipping in the United States amounted to than 600,000 tons; our program for 1918 is for 6.000.000 tons, and we have contracts for 8,500,000 tons. The Emergency Fleet Corporation is today supervising the. construction of approximately 1500 vessels in i+8 different shipyards throughout the coutnry. Of these, 77 have been cs- tablished since last April. They are 65 per cent completed. When the program was undertak- en 70 per cent of the country’s avail- able yard was enlisted in navy work. Every bit of the re- maining 30 per cent taken for construction on private acocunt largely foreign. More than 250,009 Wage earners are now working on emergency fleet contracts. In 1916 there were approximately 45,0690 ship workers in ali the plants of the country. °50,.000 volunteer shipyard workers have been enrolled reserve army through the De- of Labor. than $1,000,000,000 is now cisbursed for the construc- Fleet Car- capacity Was Some asa partment More beme .

It is the largest relief organization in mankine. Its duties the foodstuffs of the States are distributed in an manner. so as to feed as sufficientiv as possible the people of the United States, the soldiers in the trenches and the people of the allied and friendly nations of Europe. Immediatelv following the entrs of this nation into the war there was an extremely sharp upward advance on all foodstuffs. amounting to, an average of more than 20 per cent in than a month and a half. This st that i:@ss country entered the wa sr “i]1 6 1917, and Administrator ‘vas appointed without powers of law other than to obtain such relief as was possible through voluntary agreement, on May 17, 1917 That Gate marks the apex of high prices im this country. Since that time prices of staple foods have been sta- bilized and speculative profits elim- ipated*® more especially when railway transportation could be secured. Two examples of the benefits of the food contro! are available in the eases of wheat and sugar.

The collee- tion is most conveniently arranged and may be viewed at vour You will not be interrupted or disturbed by sales- The Plan of the Sale The sale opens Monday, April 1, 1918, at 9 a. m The paintings will be offered at the catalog price for one day. Should you care to purchase any picture in the collection at less than the catalog price, we will place your bid on our record book: if. during the second week, with the daily 5 per cent reduction in force. the reduced price equals your bid, we will award you the picture at vour price offered. Should another patron place a higher bid than yours, it will be recorded, and you will be notified. If you wish you can again bid higher than the second bidder. Each bidder must leave his name, address and telephone number, and we will immediately inform any patron whose bid is raised, who placed the bid higher. We in- sist upon this arrangement in order that our patrons may be satisfied that no spurious bids are made or false competition practiced. On Tuesday, April 2, there will be a 10 per cent reduction on all works unsold. Starting Wednesday, April 3, all works unsold will be reduced daily (except Sunday) 5 per cent be- low catalog prices. For exam. ple. picture No. 92, priced in our catalog at $100.00, if still unsold after the first day, will be re- duced 10 per cent, to $90.00. on Tuesday, April 2. On Wednes- dav, if still unsold, there will be a further reduction of 1 per cent, to $85.00. Thursday there will be another reduction of 5 per cent, to $80.00 and so on until it is sold. As an evidence of good faith a deposit must be made by each bidder. If the picture is sold to a higher bidder the deposit will be refunded. All works must be paid for when purchased, or some satisfactorv settlement as- sured. Pictures purchased must be removed at the expense of the purchaser. To Out-of Town Patrons During the early days of this sale we will undoubtedly receive many bids on the works exhibited. Accordingly, we suggest to out-of-town patrons that they write, phone or wire for the catalog we have prepared, and give it careful study. place your bids as soon as possible It would be wise to If undecided as to the suita- bility of the painting in mind, we shall be glad to give details and conscientious advice.

The northern flank of | Haig’s army was holding well and had retired only to its third lines, but the center was crumbling rapid- ly and the Germans had passed the Tortille, were around Peronne and the British armies north and south of the Somme. Still further to the south the whole British defense was his own armies further north, until | a ago the strategic reserves of the aliies | asteinau Wo is still bad but improving. More and more French troops are coming up and the extreme flank along the Oise is being held firmly, although Noyon has to be evacuated the sec- tor of greatest German activity now is in the plain of Santerre where great victory about Roye and Chaulnes in Septem.- ber, 1914, Roye and Chau:nes are destined to fall and the German push directly toward Amiens goes for- ward on this day, with slackening pace, but with material gain. Wednesday the Germans are stopped north of the Somme with the single gain of Albert, which was inside their lines when the Somme battle began. Thence northward the British hold the west bank of the Ancre to the bend and thence to Arras the high ground which formed British army or between the British and French armies. Maurice con- cedes that there was deadly peril of this on Saturday and again on Mon- day, north of the Somme, while south of the Somme the peril has been conr- stant and is not yet quite abolishec. Allied Front Remains Frim. Now the single thing the Ger- mans have not yet succeeded in do- ing is breaking down the continuity of the enemy’ line or destroying the forces on his front by the weight of his blow. Just as the French troops, who were holding the line in frort of Verdun, hung on wntil Petain ar- rived with his reserve army, giving up ground but holding back the flood, the British have hung on, striking and retreating for the first week, and the last half of the week is the tenth day of the Thursday two German effa clearly marked.

Mrs. Cole stated that her husband stopped her credit at stores and that he objected to her paying 60 cents for a club steak when she had pre- viously paid ten cents less for the ‘same kind of meat. She said he al- lowed her $50 a month from which he expected her to buy her wearing apparel and cover her personal ex- ' penses. They paid $70 a month for their apartment at 5616, Waterman avenue, she said. According to the plaintiff, Cole had a habit of brandishing his razor eclose to her face. She said she did not think he intended to cut her, but nevertheless it made her nervous and caused her to lose sleep. Anderson Incident Denied. The Court questioned Mrs. Cole concerning allegations in the answer.

She said she kept a diary of events in. her life, but there was nothing} written in it of an ‘objectionable nature. She denied that she expected Cole to take her to a cafe or some other | place of entertainment every night, | as he alleged. She said they went to} such places twice a week and it. usually was at his suggestion. “‘He was very restiess and did not want, to stay at home,” she said.

The dealer filed suit against the distributer under whom he had been working, claiming damages for prob- able loss of income.

A year ago last October ‘he closed -a-lease on his present quar~ ters, which were then in the course of construction. The new building is 65x135 feet and the entire front will be occupied by 'an elaborate show room for the Bris- 'coe and the Liberty,. he having re- 'cently taken over the distribution of the latter. The new building will be of stucco finish in the mission style. | Both the Liberty and the Briscoe | factories, realizing the importance of ‘the St. Louis territory, have arranged 'with Bishop to include in his plans a private office for both factory repre- ‘sentatives, which will make St. Louis their headquarters. W. J. Carter is | district sales manager for the Liberty and R. M. Burgess’ represents the Briscoe factory. Factory service men will also be sent out of St. Louis. The first of the Liberty models reached St. Louis yesterday. The shipment included a standard touring car, a red two-passenger roadster and | a blue four-passenger roadster. A. lL.

You fel- lows may not know it, but St. Helena was not a pen- itentiary, but a place of exile. It was an honor, not a disgrace. They sent me there because they feared my power, not because they wanted to quarantine me, as if I were some kind of a contagious disease. That's where Bill and I differ. Bill is a disease, that has broken out with such virulence in the upper world that the under world seems like a health resort alongside of it, and there isn’t any physician in the universe, from old Doc Aesculapius down to Lydia Pinkham, that knows how to cure it. It is a particularly violent form of German measles, complicated with an acute swelling of the head and inflammation of the Teutonic Potsdamii. It has been defined by Dr. Wizzypate of Heidelberg as a malignant carbuncle on the neck of civilization, and is altogether the most dangerous disorder the world has yet known. You can’t have it twice, because if it gets you once it has got you for good. The only thing to do is to stamp it out and to sequestrate the original germ, and that original germ happens to be Bill. My interest. in the matter is that I don’t want to see my stock put on the toboggan by having Bill sent to St. Helena, as if he and I were two of a kind.” “I don’t blame you, Boney,” said Wellington. “There’s no denying that you were a good deal of a bother in your day, and we had a hard time nailing you down to that special form of innocuous desuetude we thought best suited to your peculiar talents—as what the Greeks used to call a dam-nuisance. But, bad as you were, you were mumps to cholera along- side of this bacilli-billy that has just broken loose uber alles. If you want to get up a petition to the allies begging them, out of consideration for your reputation as a soldier and a comparative gentleman, not to send Bill to St. Helena, I'll sign it with the greatest of pleasure.” “Me too,” said Cromwell. “Same here,” said Washington. “Ditte hic,” said Caesar. “Fact is,” the noble Ro- man added, “I think it’s high time we got up a War- rior’s Union to protest against classifying the Terrible hatchet?” cherry tree story was only a little eampaign invention to imjure me with the farmer vote; but it won the Sunday school vote, so there was no harm done,” said Washington. “"Twouldn’t be any good anyhow,” said Alexander. “You couldn’t cut off a head as big as Bill’s with anything short of a sawmill.” “Moreover,” said Sir Walter Raleigh, “you don't want to humiliate Charles I and Louis XVI and your humble servant by intimating that what was proper for us is sufficient for little Willie.” “Hear! Hear!” cried Robespierre. “Your sugges- tion shows you have not lost your head altogether. my dear Sir Walter.” “It wouldn’t do to suggest hanging him in chains, would it?” put in Shem, somewhat timidly. “Not in my presence!’ growled Capt. Kidd, ostenta- tiously sharpening his dirk on the sole of his boot and glowering at the speaker, who immediately took refuge behind his great-great-great-grandfather, Cain, who returned the pirate’s glower with interest. “Well, if you want to know what I think,” said Noah, “in honor of his submarine achievements, it’s my opinion that he ought to be fed to the fishes.” “No use, Noah,” said Richard Coeur de Leon. “That wouldn’t rid us of him. If a whale couldn’t keep a mollycoddle like Jonah down, what in thunder do you suppose he could do with a dose like the Kaiser?” “We don’t seem to be getting anywhere, do we?’ sighed Napoleon. “Everybody has a different plan to propose, and no sooner is one suggested and ad- vanced than some knocker rises up and slams it.” “Well,” said Solomon with a grin, “that’s because you are not consistent. You all practicdlly decided a few minutes ago that Bill is nothing more than a dis- ease that the world is suffering from; a disorder of the germ species; and yet you propose to abate him with remedies you would apply to the abatement of mere men. The result of that is obvious. Some pre- vious sufferer from any kind of an imposed penalty is bound to object, whatever suggestion is made along the old Hines. If you suggest running him through a fiery furnace, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego will put up a holler; if you suggest drowning him in grape juice, the Juke of Clarence will rear up on his hind legs and protest; if you sug- gest tying him to a rock ly to hear people talk about sending Bill to St. Helena, for PAGE TWO < iy . : r: ike ie j cy octet Sc) Riag Res At te kd WEST a AS SNe <8 ne Adee ‘Sie s Ps ae As A ae aes x ee SR he ecg ahi rah od Steed ” ee Be SAS ore EE eR AE. a Fe EE SN. wr edn: 6) SUNDAY MAGAZINE- -ST. “Where jungle laws, jungle thought and jungle ways prevail.” .

Had it not been for Humbert and his 15 years of fight for a stronger army, said these many Frenchmen, Paris must have fallen, Verdun have given way and France perished. And today this same Charles Humbert must stand before a courtmartial to answer with his life the charge of treason. Here surely is a political paradox of classical pro- portions. The casual, thoughtless American will look upon it as a common piece.of Gallic quixotism, of po- litical subtlety too French ‘and too mercurial to have happened in America. As a matter of fact, however, the forees which were and are at work on the destiny of Charles Humbert are universal. The thing might have happened anywhere. To some, the story of this man is utterly American. For all the intrigue and chieanery, the background of the whole thing is strik- ingly paralleled by the ordinary conditions of our national life. There probably is at the moment no Charles Humbert among us, and yet his whole story is full of American analogies. Those who follow the daily newspapers know that Humbert was the associate of that fragrant adven- turer, M. Bolo Pasha, whose lethal volley must shortly gend a shudder through the frames of German mach- fnators in all countries. The basis of the charges against Humbert is the theory that he allowed him- self and his newspaper, Le Journal, to be corrupted with German bribes, notably those passed him by Bolo. The proof of the charge will be at the trying. Meantime, while we wait for the verdict of the jury, the story of Humbert’s rise and possibie fall will re- veal human interest enough for any reader. 4 again and again been used with telling effect by am- Matin.

Quickly the balloon disappeared into the clouds, thousands of feet up. From the point where it vanished we presently saw first one small speck, then another come dropping from the clouds. For some couple of hundred feet they fell like dead weights; then parachutes opened and the specks, now revealed as men, were steadied in their earthward course, floating rapidly but = to the ae 7 on " Zz ; x >! n , y o 4 af pes ce woe ee Bi) SM als iran Na ao ty? ry Lig c ‘ie nega z Bal te a a: de oF + 4 4 4 . > ‘A . 3 on Seats Pe. wowed porsTs pyes 0 a ruadeses « ‘peiouog 4[}¥019 ure 1,, Wye spuvyg Zujyeys o10q) pure ‘JOVSTA S[Y Joour 0} aaueey S3pol 94} 0} JlosmIYy Sulos *‘SUlUIOUI }xou oq} A[[VIpsoo Bpuoal’] JO 10[[a0uKeYD 94} Peale001 oy yng ‘O[fus Alm 8 OUT UMBIDP 908] SIq “idols vy Zuyy yueuMOD Are}UeMAdwWOoUN yeu UO. puy “A{AIP posasosqo Serer: ¢ 81QNO1} Uy aq ySNM AoW, ‘Aoumnof Ayseq V,, ‘yUase Sjy Pete pus smortid syy Zuomre yoeq Ae] [Ivy ‘euos peg Uvu oy} Tey ‘H JO e10m YonM syem ‘ ‘lazve eq isnw AOULL “PIS OY ,,j9104 8} YOITeW Og,, Sas Pes a | Rg BR barid agent fe eat Race” SE See a Be! ee ee Sam ; _ xf . as 2 he agi 4 a . 5 alee’ od, . ates Tp See ee Bs “di : oe Dalioon wr “4 After the balloon got free they had destroyed their papers and instruments, then clambered over the side of the basket and leaped for life into the great void beneath them, trusting to the gods who protect air- men to insure that their parachutes strapped around their waists would open when they should. Visualize, if you have fmagination enough to do so, that desperate spring into the vast gray vapory noth- ingness beneath the balloon, the feelings of the men as they made it, uncertain of what would happen; the awful sensation of casting oneself vDlindly from such an appalling height with the knowledge that only a flimsy piece of material which might act rightly or might act wrongly intervened between oneself and a crash into the earth many thousands of feet below; the tense strain of the stone-like drop through 200 feet before the parachute opened, and then the anxious mental query right through the later stages of the descent, “What shall I alight upon?’ A matter of supreme consequence this, which chance governs absolutely. The man himself can do little or nothing in deciding it. He may come down in a good spot or he may strike a house, a tree, water—or enemy territory. In this instance the men made a safe landing. They came down, cat-like, on all fours and appeared little the worse for their hazardous experi- ence.

Being a germ, Bill must be fought with germs. And since a punishment to be effective should punish, I think I know what ought to be done.” “Stop sparring for dramatic effect, Sol- ly,” said Napoleon, “and get down to brass tacks. Give us the solution, and we'll do the verbal embroidery later.” “I would inoculate him with the virus of the lizard,” said Solomon. “I would pour into his veins the liquid essence of the Newt—you all know what Newt is, don't you?” “Sure,” said Emerson, half of neutral!” “Exactly,” said Solomon, somewhat nettled that Emerson should have got away with the joke he had intended to perpetrate himself. “Now, Bill prides himself on being a War Lord, and if there is anything he detests more than another in this world it is a mollycoddle, and therein lies the effectiveness of my plan. This inoculation would transform him in the twinkling of an eye into a human rabbit, indistinguishable from your every- day common garden variety of pacifist!’ “And you think that would hurt him, do you,” sneered Socrates. “Hurt him!" echoed Solomon. “Why, of course it would hurt him. It would puncture the very heart of the bubble he loves—-his conceit! To become the thing that he most detests—what worse fate could the Furies themselves design for man? Bill has shown that he cares noth- ing for the contempt of the world; but self-contempt would sear his very soul.” “What do you think of Solomon's plan, Darwin?” asked Napoleon, as the great human zoologist entered the room. “Quite worthy of its origin,” said Dar- win, “and for a wizard of the Solomonic period, surprisingly advanced—but it is not the real solution of the problem.

S. Government— It is sixteen times larger than first one, produced in Norway — More ordered by Shipping Board ges HE average person’s idea .of a concrete ship probably is that “if it hits any- thing—good-night!” Same result if something worth while should hit it. The impression arises from the fact that concrete looks and is brittle. Con- crete ships, however, are no more con- crete alone than a concrete building. Both are rein- forced, somewhat similarly, with steel. In ships of the type which the American Government is having built the steel consists of a continuous basketwork of welded mesh, and hundreds of welded heavy bars. Around these is poured the concrete part of the ship's walls. Nearly everyone is familiar with what is known as wire glass, for windows, which incloses a mesh of wire within the pane. The principle of steel reinforcement of concrete is the same. Tests of both have shown that the reinforcement localizes damage from heavy blows. There may be something of a crumbling at the point of impact, and even a crack may appear, but no general shattering occurs. Small concrete craft, chiefly barges for canal and river work, began to be made as long ago as the middle ef the last century, and have come into extensive use, but until recently the opinion has prevailed, even among well-informed persons, including engineers, that an ocean-going concrete ship would require walis so thick and a hull so heavy that little room would be left for cargo. Apparently this theory was dispelled last November when a yt Norwegian ship, the Namsenfjord, the first ff th self-propelled, sea-going concrete vessel ever | constructed, made a successful round trip from Christiania to the British Isles, over a route, chosen for safety, which carried her 2000 miles. The Namsenfjord’s comparatively light walls withstood well all the tests put upon them. At about the time this 500-ton Norwegian vessel was being completed the United States embarked on a much larger concrete ship ex- periment than had before been attempted. It let the contract to the San Francisco Ship- building Co. for a 7900-ton concrete vessel. This is the one launched recently at Redland City, near San Francisco, and christened the “Paith.”\ The ship has still to undergo her trials and to prove herself, but the Shipping Board has acquired sufficient confidence in concrete ships to order them in considerable PAGE ROUR (1916 by a company headed by Nik K.

She weighs 3100 tons and of this 540 tons, or a little more than one-fifth, is steel. She will carry probably a little less than 5000 tons of heavy cargo. ‘As the American experts sneered at the idea of wooden ships when they were first proposed—al- though so great a line as the Cunard continued to build them—so many of them sneered at concrete ships. They have revised their opinions with regard to both and are glad to get all they can of either. The building of concrete ships has gained great fmpetus not only iz: America, but in other countries. It is being pushed in Norway. The other Scandinavian countries and also Spain are working on it. A report came from Germany recently that a new kind of concrete, weigh~ ing about half as much as ordinary'concrete, had ’beern discovered tfere and was to-be used in~-ship construc: tion. The big plant in Norway is at Moss, abo6it™ 40° ihe south of Christiania, and was establisted™ ther ‘This It is now working on vessels of as high as 3000-tons displacement and is building ways for one which will displace 4000 tons, Fougner came to America last December and has or- ganized a concrete shipbuilding company in New York, to which part of a Government contract for 10 company built the Namsenfjord. 3500-ton vessels has been given. Another company is constructing more of them at Boston. The credit for inducing the Government to take up the construction of concrete vessels for transatlantic service is due to a few naval architects and engineers familiar with con- crete construction. One of the strongest arguments for concrete ships is that no great and costly yards are required for their construction. They can be built anywhere that land and water meet and materials are to be had within reasonable distance.

SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST. LOUIS. POST-DISPATCH— MARCH 31, Definitions of Tonnage Terms as Used in Shipping Circles HE various tonnage terms used in ship- ping circles probably are understood fully by comparatively few persons. They may be explained as follows: Gross tonnage is based on the cubic contents of a ship’s hull, with certain arbitrary spaces de- ducted, and has little bearing on the cargo-car- rying capacity of the vessel. Net registered tonnage is gross tonnage, with certain allowance for crew space and machinery space deducted, and has little bearing on thax dead-weight carrying capacity of the. vessel. ° Dead-weight tonnage is what the vessel can |; actually carry in tons of heavy cargo, plus storés:. and bunker coal. . , aoa {fe uo My Displacement is the total weight of the vessel *49* when full of cargo—that is, the. weight: e, her . hull. plus her dead-weight tonnage. q is ; wie i a Y as f id es : cnte | employed in putting up concrete buildings. ae The cost of'ttte concrete ‘ship is relatively low..

In this respect the concrete ship will have another point the better of her * steel sisters, which leak to some extent from the start. At the bottom of the hull of every ~ steel ship is a narrow gutter into which the leak water is carried, and from there the ves- sel is cleared of it by means of suction pumps. The upkeep of the concrete ship also is rel- atively small and the additional great advan- tage is claimed for it that instead of wearing out, the concrete solidifies and hardens with age, so that the older a “ship of stone’”’ gets the better it is. The Faith is probably the first concrete ship to be built and launched right side up. The ‘concrete vessels which have been built in other countries have been constructed bottom up, because the concrete could be poured over the steel frame more conveniently that way. Shallow of draft, they easily righted them- selves in the water. Because of the shape and large draft of the 7900-ton Faith it was thought that it would be safer to construct her in the upright position in which she wil] sail the seas. 1918.

On every ‘posaihde eucuadiel io bigger armament, heavier artillery, larger army —tor anything that would tend to make France more secure. He constantly shouted the warning that Germany would attack, and little by little he gained the public attention. In 1911 he was commonly referred to as the chief of the French~militarists, and in 1914, before the war broke out, Charles Humbert was making a sensation in France by his demand for more and better heavy artillery. Thus, when war came suddenly in August of that year, Humbert was a hero. His slogan “Cannon and Munitions!" was taken up_ everywhere, and t, Frenchmen not too well informed came everywhere to believe that Humbert s long fight for preparedness had been the saving fact in French political history. For all this there was more than a little foundation. ie France had largely increased her supply of artillery just before the war. She had, moreover, in response t» the militarist demands, got ready to manufacture many heavy guns of modern types, and thus found herself ready, when the blow fell, to make the big cannon quickly and in numbers. More than that, the miltarists in France had succeeded, a few years before the outbreak, in increasing the term of compulsory service from two to three years; so that three classes were under arms at the same time. Thus the stand- ing army of France had been increased by almost 50 per cent. Inasmuch as the sudden German blow found just enough Frenchmen under arms to turn back the tide at the very gates of Paris, this fact is of the most significant character. it is idle to say that Humbert took an unimportant part in getting this change made. In 1915 again, just as France was entering on the second year of the war, it was Humbert who first saw a great peril. Owing to bursting cannon, worn out by a year’s use, to capture by the enemy and to ordi- nary. discarding, the artillery strength of France was visibly declining, while the Germans were manu- facturing cannon faster than ever and capturing thousands of guns from the retreating Russians. Hum- bert and his militarist friends and followers saw the peril and forced the Government to provide for enor- mous increases in the output of artillery. It is said by his friends that this action on his part again was the great deed that made the defense of Verdun pos- sible. ; Naturally, Humbert became enormously popular. No man in France seems to have had more hold upon the imagination of the common people, and yet—strange and significant is the fact—Humbert was never asked to a place in any of the successive ministries. It is said that those close to him always mistrusted his inordinate selfishness and ambition. Great an aid as he might have been to a ministry, no Premier cared to appoint him to a place, especially to that for which he was peculiarly fitted—the portfolio of war. The French felt here an old fear of theirs, the same which led them to appoint the humble and quiet Joffre to the supreme command, instead of the brilliant Foch~ Joffre was a thorough plebeian and republican. Foch might develop royalist support and prove a Man-on- Horseback. The same sort of apprehension defeated Grant when he would have thrice run for the presi- dency. This distrust of the ambitious arriviste, Humbert, was undoubtedly what kept him from high place in the Government. But it was not the sole force aligned against him. The Figaro of very recent date refers to “the many hatreds he had sown about him in the invisible struggle of his life.” ‘“Aha!”’ you will say; ‘the dossiers!” Precisely. That cruel weapon, a man’s faults and foibles; by knowledge of which one may compel him to our serv- ice, is an instrument that leaves an unhealing wound. Sooner or later he that uses this coercive force perishes by it. Humbert had raised himself to power by his knowledge of the weak spots in the lives of others. Their resentment at his tactics now kept him from the ministry and from security. It was in 1915 that Humbert undoubtedly earned elevation to the Government. It was in the same year : that he began to machinate his undoing. ‘ In July, 1915, it became knéwn that Le Journal was about to be sold by Henri Letellier. Humbert says himself that he saw his great opportunity here. The Journal was perhaps the most popular paper in France, with a circulation of something like one and one-half millions. It had made its owners rich, and it offered a man with great projects like Humbert’s a most striking chance to realize everything. Now, Humbert had undoubtedly made some money 0} [1}3 10q}0 04} PelUBM 2 el eys pres eys | ays pus yz) 8y) id I00[] 94} UO ‘am 0} yvods Py Ds, ney “9 ya ‘career. "iar ‘then ‘that, he ‘cor first wife and married a woman of wealth in 1914. Nevertheless, it is plain he cannot have had the means to Swing so great a deal as the purchase of Le Journal from M. Letellier. Humbert himself confese-s this, and it is part of his defense. While he was looking around for the money to swing his deal, along came Bolo Pasha. - Bolo had money. He explained plausibly enough where he had got it. He offered to advance a million francs te Hum bert, to be used in the purchase of Le Journal. In return Bolo was to have some voice in the conduct of the paper. Humbert says he needed the money and could net be too particular. He took Bolo up, and Bolo had the million francs transferred to Humbert through Morgan & Co. This sum, about $170,000 at the then current eee Leteliler. paid him by Bolo, and the rest of the money from pee tibtwded. With this sum nee’ fate according to Humbert, he bought 1100 of 2000 comprising the stock of Le Journal, from MM. De- — stuches and Lenoir, who had bought the property from it bas been shown that Bolo got his money from the Germans, and since he is about to be executed as a traitor on that count, there can be no reasonable doubt of his interest in the whole transaction. The question is whether Humbert knew the source of Bolo's money and was consciously serving the ends of the Germans. There is much to indicate that he did not, in spite of the presumptive case against him. Curiously enough, Humbert makes the claim that by purchasing control of the Journal with Bolo’s German money, he actually performed a patriotic service. He says that the money with which Lenoir got the Jour- nal from Letellier did not come from Mme. Lenoir’s fa- ther, as was claimed. Friends of Humbert say they can show that the money was got from a German agent in Switzerland by Lenoir. A fanciful story is told which says the money was paid in smal] French bills, many of them tattered and bloodstained, showing all too clearly that they had been looted in the ravished por- tions of France. . To go into the ramifications of the connection be- tween Bolo and Humbert at this time is a task bor- dering on the impossible. But certain details are in- teresting and illuminating. One point that has been made much of is the fact that Bolo submitted to Humbert for the Journal an article blatantly praisin William R. Hearst and calling him the friend France. Humbert declined to publish the praise of Hearst and questioned his friendship for the French. Later, it is said, an airangement for exchange of news between Hearst's newspapers and Le Journal was broached, but was never made. Eventually, when Humbert found out the source of Bolo’s money, he got the million frances from friends and returned them to Bolo. Humbert has all along claimed that his acceptance of Bolo’s money and his connection with that indi- vidual were only possible because of ignorance of Bolo’s true significance. Humbert says that his mo- tives were always the most patriotic, and that if he has been compromised it has been through a set of machinations that must have deceived the most astute and patriotic. | Hard upon a lengthy announcement to this general effect coming from Humbert, Attorney-General Lewis of New York, in response to a request from France, ade an investigation here and found more than 000 on deposit with Morgan & Co. to the credit of mbert. This money had come through banks used ‘Bolo in his machinations, and the inference is plain At Humbert knew more of the origin of this money an he has admitted. His answer is that part of.the money is the $170,000 his private fortune, all of which he sent to America because he intended to buy print paper here and then not expended because he discovered a cheaper market in Norway. Externally, at least, there is strong evidence against Senator Humbert. It may be he did not know the source of Bolo’s money when he took it. But his later actions seem those of a man who had a strong suspicion of the truth and took steps to safeguard him- self and his gains. Last December, when the fire got hot, Humbert himself moved the waiving of his parliamentary im- munity, and it was voted by the Chamber. This was done so that Bolo might sue him for libel. At Bolo’s trial Humbert appeared as a witness, big, heavy and genial, with that somewhaf forced good nature which enemies and friends alike have looked upon as a disguise for unrestrained sordid ambition. Here are used the terms of the French newspapers: Humbert, the humble Lorraine dishwasher, having risen to a place where he was within measurable dis- tance of controlling the destinies of France, had to submit to being grilled much like a felon. His good nature broke before the attack and he demanded to be arrested and tried. So Humbert’s request was granted in all too certain a way. He was, indeed, ar- rested, and finds himself in no enviable position. Strong as he has been, the Bolo scandal and the forth- coming trial of Caillaux have undermined his support, and Charles Humbert, of whom it was said he would be President or guillotined, stands face to face with the possibility of death as a traitor. ff _mm rn “THE CALL TO ARMS,” Heroic Statue for France, by Jo Davidson | AS an American gift to France, this striking figure in bronze 3 is destined to be placed at Senlis, on the historic battle ground of the Marne—marking the furthest advance of the Ger- The statue stands twelve feet high, and is SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST.

After an eternity of plunging forward. we, a pitiful few, reached our objective, the Huns hurriedly leaving; that is, those of them wh _ § had not joined their comrades in death. Still, our work was not yet done. The ground had been won, but to hold it was another thing, and with all of our officers gone and 60 per cent of the men, we must work to consolidate. “Just as I seized a hand bag full of earth to place in front of me, I felt a stinging smack on my ankle, tillery—what we have of ‘it—will shell their first line for half an hour, and then will lift and play on their second line. While they are doing this you will go over. There's a lot of us ‘who are not going to come back, but the job must be done and I know you will do it.’ “While he was talking thoughts of mother, father and home surged more vividly through my mind thea at any other time. We swung out of the orchard onto the road and nothing could be heard except the dill sound of trudging feet. Flares would shoot up into the sky, hang suspended a moment, leaving everything | in gloom once more. Every now and then a muf: -d shriek or a coughing gurgle would tell of the passing cr wounding of some gallant lad. ‘We trudged silently, every man busy with his own thoughts. At last we turned up the death trap to our left, on the famous Z— road. Over its ghastly piles of dead we filed on for many yards without touch- ing solid ground, so thickly lay the dead. ‘At this time we were sighted by the Huns and they treated us to fusillade of machine gun and rifle fire. We were now almost to shelter and the men made their way to the safety of a well-constructed trench. “A short rest, then on again, this time up a shal- low communication trench, then out behind a low- lying parapet. Three or four huge Bavarians lay with faces to the stars; they had been hurriedly laid to one side by our leading files. “The fitful light of the stars intensified the mute horror of the fallen jaw and the unspeakable terror of the dead faces. Still, such sights now failed to move us, and with but a perfunctory gMnce we passed on. ‘We waited in silence for the word. What an hour of mental agony! The steady hammer, hammer of the light guns, the monotonous bass mutterings of the heavies, the shrill, hysterical crackle of the’ machine gun and rifle and the shrieking and cracking of burst- ing shells seemed to sing hell’s requiem to us poor mortals waiting. My God, that waiting! At such a time a man’s thoughts sink into utter oblivion and the soul shows bare. “ ‘Over and at them, and the next thing I remem- ber I was plunging forward through the mud of No Man’s Land. On each side of me men were falling, cursing, praying and gasping. But, unscathed, I went on, two things mingling queerly in my head. H aaa " Baldeohe as though I had been kicked. | turned to curse the man I thought had kicked me and then I fell over with a scream of pain. My left foot was smashed completely with a soft-nosed bullet. “] had merely commenced to feel the sting of the pain when the Huns rushed us again and it was hand to hand. A Bavarian lunged toward me with a rifle clubbed, and I closed my eyes, being utterly helpless, and waited for my skull to be crushed. The blow did not fall. I opened my eyes just in time to see our Sergeant-Major plunge his bayonet through the Ba- varian’s neck. Down flopped the Hun, with his hands, one on each side, convulsively clutching the bayonet, and he sat opposite me, only a few yards intervening, during all the hours I was there, with a hellish grin on his face. When the pain of the wound would subside and I would doze for a few minutes I would awaken with a shudder, imagining the dead Hun was moving hfs face closer The annoyed Canadians shat tt off the parapet, but sent up a roar of laughter at their own expense when the toy reappeared ' a minute later swathed in bandages from head to tail.

I feiecsd my eyes + seat ia oe time to see our S hoe ie Major plunge his bayonet — throueh the fave an, and closer to mine. “N ot h- ing could be done for any of the wounded, so serious was the position of the remnant of the boys. Their business was to hold what they had won, and the wounded must do the best they could. The remnant held until re- inforcements arrived, 24 hours later.” Baldwin in the meantime lay, with many others,,. where he had fallen. His shattered foot and part of the leg were amputated afterward and after recover- ing in England he was discharged. Since then he has devoted his time to aiding recruiting and his book is Written for that purpose. He advanced to the rank of Sergeant during his period of service: A native of England, Baldwin had emigrated to Can- ada when a youth and he was working in a Sas- katchewan harvest field when the war started. In its first month he rode 80 miles on horseback and by train to Saskatoon to enlist. He arrived there coat- less and in overalls. He was so small that he had dif- ficulty in getting accepted, but he lied unblushingly that he had served four years in the English regular army, and he won the examining physician over with the remark that he might be small, but it was “con- centrated stuff.’ By nature an optimist, he took: life in the trenches cheerfully and his bodk is liberally interspersed with quaintly humorous stories and comments upon his ex- periences. He describes a Scotchman with whom he had a small transaction as a man who could “buy from one Jew ahd sell to another one, and make a profit.” Someone has called it a war of mud. Baldwin offers this small contribution to mud-at-the-front literature, crediting it to the regimental poct laureate: “Mud, mud, damnable mud. In mud we must wallow and mud we must. swallow. Mud, mud, damnable mud. _ Oh, say! will we ever get out of the mud?” At Armentiers he got his first taste of French beer and he didn’t like it. “Is the French fighting man anything like his beer?” he asked the Tommy who gave him the drink. “Gawd forbid,” Tommy replied irreverently, “for this damn stuff is about as much like beer as kiss- in’ your own sister is a kiss.” Baldwin stoutly defends both swearing and drink- ing—for the fighting man. “I firmly believe,” he says of the former, “that if the soldier were deprived of the power to express himself profanely when occasion seems to warrant, his efficiency would be materially hampered. Even the chaplains have been known to swear quite violently at times.” Of drinking, with particular reference to the En- glish rum ration: “Picture to yourself the dawn after a bitter cold night in the trenches. Weary soldiers, wet to the skin, working all night in a most dangerous place, probably expecting an itmmediate attack from the enemy; dirty, vermin-covered, muddy and without one single comfort. If rum helps under those condi-- tions, who can say nay? Some persons have the idea that the men are liberally dosed with rum before they go over the top. This may bé true in some in- stances, but so far as I know no British troops ever needed that kind of Dutch courage to go over the top.” (Continued on Page 12.) PAGE PIVB veg Ryu

The other girl was afraid they were too heavy for the Marquis, because he was such a little donkey. ‘Tell that to somebody who hasn't seen one of these animals under a pack! We're a mere feather to him. We'll sit in the back and hang our feet over, and if we meet anybody who matters, we can hop off.’ fascinating one sprang into the cart with an energy that jerked the shafts up, and sat, as she had sug- gested, hanging her feet over. ‘Come on,’ she said; ‘don’t keep the Marquis waiting.’ The other girl jumped up beside her, and they called to Billy to go on. Billy passed the word along to the Marquis, but apparently the Marquis had other plans. He stood perfectly still, and the long shafts—have I said that the cart was several sizes too large for him?—the long shafts, tipped up by the weights in the back of the cart, pointed above his ears. ‘Git up!’ shouted Billy. The Marquis turned, back one ear, and tried to rub his nose on his foreleg: but the shaft interfered with freedom of action, so he turned his head and looked reproachfully back at Billy. The fascinating one laughed. ‘Make him go, Billy,’ she said. ‘He mustn’t _be humored. It’s bad for men and burros to be ““humored. They need discipline,’ she said.” Nan giggled delightedly, and Cecily shot a covert and furious glance at the narrator, who pleasantly smiled at her, continuing: “Billy leaned forward, and larruped the Marquis with the ends of the reins. The Marquis took about two step# and Billy lifted his voice in what was proba- bly intended for a shout of triumph. Then a funny thing happened. That burro began to rise slowly, forefeet first, as if he was being lifted bodily by those tremendous shafts. When he got well up on his hind legs, Billy's paean changed to a shriek of ter- ror. ‘Jump, girls! Jump!’ he yelled. ‘You're too heavy! You're pulling him up in the air!’” Ton and Nan shouted with laughter, and Cecily, finding herself in Rome, succeeded in emulating the Romans to the extent Of contributing a weary smile. Bradford gravely waited for the merriment to die away. ‘“That’s what I did,” he said ruefully, “I laughed. The girls rolled out at the back; Billy jumped; the Marquis resumed a horizontal position, and dropped one ear out at right angles to his head, with an innocently inquiring expression that would have done credit to a diplomat; and I—I stood there and laughed!” His tone indicated deep disgust. “Well, I should think you would!” approved Nan. “What did the girls do?” : “One of them got up-—-and the other one didn't. Presently it dawned on me that the fascinating one was still lying in the dust, and [ stopped laughing. I ran-with my heart in my mouth. When I got near them the other one called out, ‘Oh, she's sprained her ankle!’ But the fascinating one just lay there, propped up on one elbow, and her eyes were blazing, I can tell vou!" Mrs. Mosgrove smiled faintly, and glanced fleetingly at him. Nan looked from one to the other. She was amused, but no longer bewildered. “She looked up at me, and demanded, ‘Did you laugh?" Well, she was alive and conscious —ap- parently not much hurt-—and there stood Billy and that ridiculous burro and the old dump cart, and to save my neck I couldn't have kept my face straight! I admitted the first charge and rendered myself liable to a second. I! laughed again—but only a little, because she groaned and dropped her head down on her arms. Then | knew I was a brute—and I think I said so: [I don't remember. Anyhow, she had sprained her ankle and couldn't walk, and the quick- est way to get her home seemed to take her in the cart.” Nan laughed, and he frowned at her quickly. “Oh, it wasn't a bit funny then! She was in pain and we were a long way from-her boarding house, and she was furious with me, and didn't want me to touch her or do anything for her, and none of us had any sense, anyhow, and—it. wasn’t funny, I tell you! However, we finally got her into the cart—the other girl and I—and we sent Billy post-haste for a doctor, and then we started home with her through the dusk. Nobody who's never been to Santa Barbara knows what the dusk is there.” he said softly. “It's golden and amethyst and gray, all mixed up together and biended—and it's fragrant. The night before we had walked together in the dusk on the beach, she and 1, and—somehow I thought that perhaps some day she'd let me tell her what that dusk—with her—meant to me.” He looked across the table at Cecily; she had grown a little pale. Nan drew in her breafh quickly and looked away. “By Jove!” whispered Tom, not yet fully enlight- ened, but beginning to see. PAGE TWELVE So the — ‘3 “But there she lay, on the floor of the cart, and she wouldn't look at me nor speak to me. She said she wanted to go home, and she wanted the other girl to walk beside her every step of the way, and then she lay down in the cart and shut her eyes. So the girl walked beside the cart, and | led the burro—and thought of all the things I wanted to say to her.” His voice was low and a little husky. “I wanted to tell her that she was—what she was; and I wanted to tell her—other things. But all I could do was to lead the burro and see that the wheels didn’t jolt into chuckholes. And that’s the way we went home.” He ceased speaking, and nobody stirred. Presently he resumed: { “I helped lift her out of the cart and carry her into the house. _ She wouldn’t even say good-night to me. I thought then that the sprain was a very bad one, and that she was in great pain.” Cecily flushed red at this point. ‘So I went back to the hotel and smoked—and smoked, The next morning, as soon as | decently could, I went over to her boarding hotse, and—what do you suppose they told me?" He paused, looking at Nan. | : “What?” | “That she had taken the steamer for San Francisco the night before.” “Gone?” : “Gone. Apparently she had recovered from the intense pain of that sprain rather quickly. Anyhow, she had stirred up the old lady who was with her, had . her trunks packed in a hurry, and they had taken the northbound steamér at midnight. ‘Fortunately for her scheme, the boat was late.” Mrs. Mosgrove’s mouth wore an aggravating, tan- talizing smile. | “Well, I'll be hanged!” ejaculated Tom. This part of the story he had not heard. ‘What did you do?” “Took the name of her San Francisco hotel, and engaged a seat in the next north-bound stage. I'd missed that day’s.”’ “Did you catch her?’ demanded Porter. “No! She had several hours’ start. and that stage is no flier! I got to Frisco, to find that she'd stayed there only overnight, and had left Salt Lake City as her next mail address. I telegraphed her, asking her to wait for me there, and took the next train east. They only run one through train a day on that road, and, of course, I'd missed it that day. At Salt Lake City I learned that she had remained there only over one train, but had gone to Denver. I telegraphed her at Denver, and took the next train over. Same old story. She had stayed there only a few hours, and had gone to Colorado Springs. By this time I was getting wary; and as I had lots of time before there was a train to the Springs, I wired her hotel, asking if these ladies were there. Reply came that they, had been there, but had gone. I wired for their next address. They'd left none. I wired again, asking their probable destination. Clerk didn't know, but thought it was New York. Definite, isn’t it?” “And that’s why you're here?’ Tom was excited. “That’s why I’m here,” repeated Bradford, signifi- cantly. “I really believe that's why I’m here.’ He looked again across the table at Cecily. This time she met his glance rather nervously—half pleading, half defiant. “Well, I'll be hanged!" reiterated his friend. ‘If a woman gave me the slip that way, I'd let her go!” “No, you wouldn't, Tom,”’ quietly replied Otis, with one quick, deep glance into Cecily’s baffling eyes. “Not this woman.” “Well, then, if it’s as serious as that, let’s find her! Who is she?” Tom was as unconscious of the under- current as he had earlier been of the gunpowder. “She is,’ said Bradford, and paused. Cecily opened her eyes wide and looked straight at him. Nan held her breath. “Well?” urged Porter. “She is—the most lovable Woman in the whole world!” said Otis, under his breath. Cecily’s gaze was suddenly withdrawn, ‘ “Yes, yes, but her name! What’s her name?” ‘That,’ said Bradford, for the second time, “is my secret.” “But don't you see, man? We may be able to help vou find her! It's possible—of course, not probable, but entirely possible-——-that we may even know her!” “That's not, impossible,”’ drolly admitted Bradford. “Well, then?’ “TI shall find her—if it is to be,.”’ “Oh, fiddlesticks!”’ said Tgm. “What do you think about it, Mrs. Mosgrove?’’ sud- denly asked Otis. “Do you think I| shall ever find her again?” “Quien sabe?” she replied; but to Bradford's ears her laugh was unnatural, and his heart leaped within him. . “You travel a great deal,” he said. ‘“‘You may find her for me some day. Will you let me come tomor- row and tell you who she is?” “Tomorrow?” faltered Cecily.

But the hostess was apparently oblivious of the hour and the situa- tion. She sat, her elbows on the table, her chin propped in her hands, loo ing at Bradford, “You have this to comfort you, anyway, Otis,” she remarked; “she found you formidable.” “What do you mean?” he quickly asked. “There’s only one thing in the world that will make & woman run away from a man,” said Nan, judicially, “and that is fear.” ; ‘How absurd!”’ exclaimed Mrs. Mosgrove, flushing to her hair. “Now,” continued Mrs. Porter, ignoring Cecily’s barbed glances. “let’s proceed by the method of elim- ination. She was not afraid of physical violence from you. She was not, presumably, afraid of violence, physical or otherwise, from any other man because of you. She was not afraid of you at all; for if you had succeeded in finding her and telling her your story, she would have had only to say ‘no,’ and that would have ended it. Ergo, she was afraid to let you tell your story, for fear of what she herself might do or feel. In other words, she was afraid she might yield.” “But why should she be afraid to yield if-—if she could care for me?” puzzled the man. “Because she’s a woman, you goose!” laughed Nan. “We all hate the thought of yielding—until we've done it, and then we glory in it! You may depend upon it, as long as she runs from you, she’s afraid.” “Oh, said Bradford, “I wonder if that’s so? think it is, Mrs. Mosgrove?’’ “Not at all,” protested Cecily, somewhat overfervent- ly. “She probably runs—that is, she probably wishes not to be annoyed, and—and I should advise you to give it up.” ‘‘Never!” said Bradford, quietly. ‘Never until she herself tells me, in so many words, that she does not and cannot—love me. And I'm not sure that I shall give it up even then,” he added. “At any rate, I’ve told you the story. I warned you that it had no denouement, unless—have you, possibly, discovered one?” For an instant Cecily looked across the table into eyes that told more than ever his lips could. “Will you tell me?” he whispered. She arose, and they all followed her example. “ft shouldn’t wonder,’ she said; unsteadily, “I’m not sure, but—I shouldn’t wonder if—perhaps it will turn out to be ‘And they—lived happily—ever after.’ ”’ (Copyright.) Farmer Boy’s Vivid “Over the Top” Story (Continued From Page 5.) Do you In the Armentiers region Baldwin's regiment faced a regiment of Saxons for a few days and found this particular brand of the enemy to be almost human and to have a sense of humor. Baldwin’s battalion had been cavalry, but had been turned into infantry, and the men were twitted considerably about having no horses. Even the Germans, who seemed to be per- fectly informed about them, joined in. Some who spoke English would yell across questions about what had become of the horses, and one morning the Canadians discovered that the Saxons had mounted a small wooden toy horse on their parapet. The annoyed Ca- nadians shot it off the parapet, but sent up a roar of laughter at their own expense when the toy reappeared a minute later swathed in bandages from head to tail. Sergt. Empey, in one of his stories, tells of a traitor- ous Belgian who was discovered to be giving informa- tion to the enemy by means of color combinations of horses used in plowing. Baldwin recalls a Belgian farmer who was a sniper against the Canadians. The long handles of his plow were wrapped with straw and it was found that he was carrying a carbine inside one of these wrappings. He operated only a few days be- fore he was caught. He presumably was executed. Baldwin claims to have got one of his best lessons in bayonet handling from a Lancashire Corporal. The discourse was on how to get a bayonet out of a German promptly. . “You,see,”’ the Corporal said, “if you push it in too far you canna get it oot again handy, because this groove on the side o’ it makes the ‘ole air-tight; as soon as it’s jabbed into a man the suction pulls the flesh all over it. “To get it oot, try a twist. If that won't do it, stick your foot on the beggar and try to wrench it oot; if that won't do it, pull the tfigger a couple of times and there you are—she’'ll blow oot.” -The bursting a shell near him in the water of a canal in which he was swimming gave Baldwin one of the queerest of his experiences. . “I spun round and round, after the manner of a top,” he says. “I fancied I had swallowed half the water of the canal. Struggling in a sort of frightened frenzy to the shore, and without waiting to put on my clothes, I dashed up the canal bank into the orchard and hurled myself into my hole, where | sat blubbering and sobbing like a scared child.” SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST.

But he looked almost wistfully at the sturdy and competent old figure before him. Thus was he, not so long ago. Cold nights and spring storms had no terrors for him. And something else he felt, although he said nothing—the stress of a sit- uation which would send his Chancellor out at mid- night, into a driving storm, to secure Karl’s support. Things must be bad indeed! “To the capital?” he asked. “Not so far. Karl is hunting. He is at Wedeling.” He went almost immediately, and the King sum- moned his valets, and was got to bed. But long after the. automobile containing Mettlich and two secret agents was on the road towarf@l the mountains, he tossed on his narrow bed. To what straits had they come indeed! He closed his eyes wearily. Something had gone out of his life. He did not realize at first what it was. When he did, he smiled his old grim smile in the darkness. He had lost a foe. More he had dearly loved a foe. CHAPTER XVI. : ON THE MOUNTAIN ROAD. HE low gray car which carried the Chancellor than anvthing, perhaps, was on its way through the mountains. It moved deliberately, for two reasons. First, the Chancellor was afraid of motors. He had 4 horseman’s hatred and fear of machines. Second, he was not of a mind to rouse King Kar] from a night's sleep, even to bring the hand of the Princess Hedwig. His intention was to put up at some inn in a village not far from the lodge and to reach Karl by messenger early in the morning, before the hunters left for the day. Then, all being prepared duly and in order, Mettlich himself would arrive, and things would go forward with dignity and dispatch. In the meantime he sat back among his furs and thought of many things. He had won a vietory which was, after all, but a compromise. He had chosen the safe way, but it led over the body of a young girl, and he loathed it. Also, he thought of Nikky, and what might be. But the car was closed and comfortable. The motion soothed him. After a time he dropped asleep. ‘ The valley of the Ar deepéned. The cliff rose above them, a wall broken here and there by the offtake of narrow ravines, filled with forest trees. There was a pause while the chains on the rear wheels were supplemented by others in front, for there must be no danger of a skid. And another pause, where the road slanted perilously toward the brink of the chasm, and caution dictated that the Chancellor alight, and make a hundred feet or so of dangerous curve afoot. it required diplomacy to get him out. But it was finally done, and his heavy figure, draped in its mili- tary cape, went on ahead, outlined by the lamps of the “SUNDAY MAGAZINE—ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH— MARCH 31, 1918. ear behind him. The snow was hardly more than a coating, but wet and slippery. Mettlich stalked on, as one who would defy the elements, or anything else, to hinder him that night. He was well around the curve, and the cliff was broken by a wedge of timber, when a curiously shaped object projected itself over the edge of the bank, and rolling down, lay almost at his feet. -The lamps brought it into sharp relief—a man, gagged and tied, and rolled, cigar shaped, in an automobile robe. The Chancellor turned and called to his men. Then he bent over the bundle. The others ran up, and cut the bonds. What with cold and long inaction, and his recent drop over the bank, the man could not speak. One of the secret service men had a flask, and held it to his lips. An amazing situation, indeed, increased by the discovery that under the robe he wore only his undergarments, with a soldier’s tunic wrapped around his shoulders. They carried him into the car, where he lay with head lolling back, and his swollen tongue protruding. Half dead he was, with cold and long anxiety. The brandy cleared his mind long before he could speak, and he saw by the uni- forms that he was in the hands of the enemy. He turned sulkily silent then, convinced that he had escaped one death but to meet another. Twenty-four hours now he had faced eternity, and he was ready. He preferred, however, to die fully clothed, and when, in response to his pointing up the bank and to his inarticulate mouthings, one of the secret police examined the bit of woodland with his pocxet flash, he found a pair of trousers where Nikky had left them, neatly folded and hung over the branch of a tree. The brandy being supplemented by hot coffee from a patent bottle, the man revived further, made an effort, and sat up. His tongue was still swollen, but they made out what he saif. He had been there since the night before. People had passed, a few peasants, a man with a cart, but he eould not ery out, and he had hesitated to risk the plunge to the road. But at last he had made it. He was of Karnia, and a King’s messenger. “I was coming back from the barrier,” he said thickly, “‘where I -had carried dispatches to the offi- eer in charge. On my return a man hailed me from the side of the road, near where you found me. I thought that he desired to be taken on and stopped my car. But he attacked me. He was armed and I awakened I was above the road, among myself up when the snow commenced. Few way.’ But I heard your car coming and made a perate effort.” “Then,” asked one of the agents, “these are not your clothes?” ° “They are his, sir.” The agent produced a flashlight and inspected the garments. Before the Chancellor's eyes, button by button, strap én the sleeve, star on the cuff, came into view the uniform of a Captain of his own regi- ment, the Grenadiers. Then one of his own men had done this infamous thing, one of his own officers, “Go through the pockets,” he continued sternly. Came into view under the flash a pair of gloves, a box of matches, a silk handkerchief, a card case, The agent said nothing, but passed a card to the Chan- cellor, who read it without comment. There was silence in the car. At last the Chancellor stirred. your car on?” “Yes. And he has not returned. No other machine has passed.” The secret service men exchanged glances. There was more to this than appeared. Somewhere ahead. then, was Nikky Larisch, with a motor that did not belong to him, and wearing clothing which his victim described as a chauffeur’s coat of leather, breeches and puttees, and a fur greatcoat over all. “Had the snow commenced when this happened?" “Not then, sir. Shortly after.” : “Go out with the driver,” the Chancellor ordered one of his men, “and watch the road for the tracks of another car. Go slowly.” So it was that, after an hour or so, they picked up Nikky’s trail, now 24 hours old, but still clear, and followed it. The Chancellor was awake enough by this time, and bending forward. The man they had rescued slept heavily. As the road descended into the foothills, there were other tracks in the thin snow, and more than once they toused Nikky’s victim to pick out his own tire marks. He obeyed dully, When at last the trail turned from the highway toward the shooting box at Wedeling, Mettlich fell back with something between a curse and a groan. “The fool!” he muttered. “The young fool! madness.” At last-they drew up at an inn in the village on the royal preserve, and the Chancellor, looking rather gray, alighted. He directed that the mam they had rescued be brought in. The Chancellor was not for losing him just yet. He took a room for him at the inn, and rather cavalierly locked him in it. The dull-eyed landlord, yawning as he lighted the party upstairs with candles, apparentiy neither no- ticed nor cared that the three of them surrounded a fourth, and that the fourth looked both sullen and ill. The car, with one of the secret service men, Mett- lich sent on to follow Nikky’s trail, and to report it to him. The other man was assigned to custody of the chauffeur. The Chanceller, more relieved than he would have acknowledged, reflected before a fire and over a glass of hot milk that he was rather un- propitiously bringing Karl a bride! It was almost 4 in the morning when the police agent returned. The track he had followed appar- ently led into the grounds of Wedeling, but was there lost in many others. It did not, so far as he could discover, lead ‘béyond the lodge gates. The Chancellor sipped his hot milk and considered. Nikky Larisch a prisoner in Karl's hands caused him less anxiety than it would have a month before But what was behind it all? The inn, grumbling at its broken rest, settled down to sleep again. The two secret service agents took turns on chairs outside their prisoner's door, glancing in occasionally to see that he still slept in his built- in bed. At a little before 5 the man outside the prisoner s door heard something inside the room. He glanced in. All was quiet. The prisoner slept heavily, genu- ine sleep. There was no mistaking it, the sleep of a man warm after long cold and exhaustion, weary after violent effort. The agent went out again, and locked the door behind him. And as the door closed a trapdoor from the kitchen below opened softly under the sleeping man's bed. With great caution came the landlord, head first, then shoulders. The space was cramped. He craw led up, like a snake out of a hole, and ducked behind the curtains of the bed. All was still quiet, save that the man outside struck a match and lighted a pipe. Half an hour later the Chancellor's prisoner, still stiff and weak, was making his way toward the hunt- ing Jodge. 7 | Kaiser saw him first, and found the story unenlight- ening.

I found it very interesting.” “Ah! Were you there long?” he pointedly quired. “Long enough to perceive various possibilities,” she parried. “It’s really too bad that you should have missed it!”’ “T consider myself very fortunate in that,”’ he im- perturbably rejoined, “for if I had stopped there, should not now be here.” “And then we might never have met,” Mosgreve, gravely. “Oh, a few days might not have been fatal, after all.” he deliberated. “If you're staying with the Porters’’— “But I'm not.” “Eh!” It, was less an inquiry than an ejaculation “I'm not.’ -Cecily was wickedly smiling. ‘fI'm merety here for din- ner.” 3 He turned to Nara for refutation. “Mis. Mosgrove is visiting her cousins, the Hinsdales, who are our neighbors,” she explained. “By the way, Otis, I want you to know Hinsdale,”” broke in Porter. ‘‘He’ll be just the man to interest in that new company you're forming. I'll take you over there tomorrow.” Bradford looked at Cecily. It might have been thought that his glance was triumphant. “I'm sure my cousin will be de- lighted to have you call upon him,” she said graciously. “I regret that I shall not be there to share his pleas- ure.’ “Not there?” asked Nan. _ “No. Don’t you remember that I told you this afternoon, Nan” (Ce- cily’s face was the picture of guile- lessness) ‘‘that country life had palled upon me?

We're going.” “Oh!’’—— She brushed her thumbs lightly over her finger tips and spread them wide, giving the impres- sion of a scattering dandelion puff. Does that expression carry you back to Southern Cali- fornia, Mr. Bradford?” She darted a provocative glance at him. “I’m tired of knowing where I’m going.

Don’t! What’s the use?’’ “What train do you intend taking into town?” asked Bradford, conscious that his inquiry was futile. “Won't you at least permit me the pleasure of going in with you?” “Oh, thank you; I really don’t know. on either road, however the trains happen to suit our convenience; and as I haven't yet decided where |! shall go, I’ve naturally not the slightest idea what train I shall take, or even what station I shail start from.

Santa Barbara, for example, where there’s no railroad at all, and a steamer only onée in four or five days?” “There’s a daily stage.’ grimly said Bradford, “a large, red stage, swung on leathern straps, rivals a howdah for discomfort and a snail for letsure- liness.”” “You speak feelingly.” To one who merely listened, Mrs. Mosgrove’s tone had seemed full of soothing sweetness: Bradford, observing her eyes, found it maddening. “Quien sabe? a SI e @ * _ | “I do,” he replied. “I traveled many sleepless hours in that stage.” He paused a moment, somberly con- templating her impish amusement. Then he con- tinued, with the utmost deliberation. “Since you are so familiar with the transportation facilities of the West—notably of Santa Barbara,” her eyes blazed at him, and he met the volley with an answering flash, “possibly you would be interested in the story to which Mr. Porter alluded.” “Oh, are you going to tell it, after all?” asked Nan, somewhat apprehensively. She had long since sniffed gunpowder in the air, but was still uncertain as to whether it indicated sharp-shooting or fireworks. In any event it would do no harm to discourage a pos- sible breach of neutrality. She was bewildered, a state of mind in which she seldom found herself, and cor- respondingly uneasy. Not so her unsuspicious spouse. Gunpowder? Non- sense! Women are always smelling smoke. He met Nan’s danger signals with a puzzled start, which end- ed in a chuckle. “Go on, Otis,” he said. “Tell it to’em. Begin with the girl.” “‘Perhaps Mrs. Mosgrove will give me the opportunity of telling her the story tomorrow,” suggested Brad- ford. “It’s rather a long one, and Porter has already heard the first part of it. Shall we leave it until we call upon you tomorrow?” he asked her. “Wouldn't it be wiser? Perhaps this is hardly the place or the hour—for such a long story;’’ she flashed a saucy glance at him, adding maliciously: “‘especially one which you admit has no denouement.’” ~\ * RAY WY N NN “Perhaps you'll discover one,” he daringly retorted. “At any rate, since you've been in Santa Barbara—— By the way, I’m not at fault there? You have been in Santa Barbara?’’ “I have.” She drew in her lips whimsically. “You will, I am sure, be interested in the story. Shall we say tomorrow, then?” She glanced up at him and then down at her plate. He watched her narrow- ly. “You'll be there?’ he persisted. **Possibly.” “If decline to take any chances. I’ve never told this story—the whole of it—to anyone before,” he said, soberly, forcing her to’meet for a moment his direct gaze. Her eyelids drooped under the ordeal. “And [| want to tell it to—someone who has been in Santa Barbara.” “Well, go on! Go on!” exelaimed Porter. “‘Where- fore all this preamble?’’ “I suppose it isn’t much of a story in-itself,” Brad- ford slowly continued, “but I’ll do my best,”’ glancing at Cecily, “to Keep up the suspensive interest. It’s primarily about the Marquis.” “Oh, a Marquis!”’ said Nan. “It’s my opinion,” commented Porter, “that the Marquis is a small part of it.” “Well, anyhow, it began with the Marquis. Do you know hia?” he asked Mrs. Mosgrove. “I do not!” she replied, with a little vindictive crack-of the final t. The corners of Bradford's eyes wrinkled in amusement. “Ah? Too bad! The Marquis, you must know,” he turned to Nan, “is a burro. Eastern visiters to Santa Barbara usually begin by calling him, im plain English, a donkey, but time and affection soon reach the softer Spanish term to such of them as don" adopt the title bestowed upon him by the colored lady who reaps the financial benefits of his popularity. She calls him the Markwiss dee Lay-fayette.”” Again he glanced at Cecily, whose chin was tilted and whose lips curved in a disdaimful—one might almost have called it a contemptuous—smile. “You must have SUNDAY MAGAZINE -ST.

HE King, of course, was neither asking’ nor expecting sympathy from her, but mentally, and somewhat grimly, he compared her un- moved face with that of his old friend and Chancellor, only a few nights before. “It is a regrettable fact,” he went on, “that I must leave, as I shall, a sadly troubled country. But for that’"——- _ He paused. But for that, he meant, he would go gladly. He needed rest. His spirit, still so alive, chafed dafly more and more against its worn body. He believed in another life, did the old King. He wanted the hearty handclasp of his boy again. £ven the wife who had married him against her wil! had grown close to him in later years. He needed her. too. A little rest, then, and after that a new life, with those who had gone ahead. _ “A sadly troubled country,” he repeated. “All countries are troubled. We are no worse than others.” “Perhaps not. But things are changing. The old order is changing. The spirit of unrest—I shall not live to see it. You may, Annunciata. But the day is coming when all thrones will totter. Like this one.” Now at last he had pierced her armor. one!” “That is what I-s¢aid. Rouse yourself, Annunciata. Leave Ahat little boudoir of yours, with its accursed~clocks and its heat and its flub-dubbery, and see what is about you! Discontent! Revolution! We are hardly safe from day to day.

He held out the paper and she put on her pinc-nez and read its headings, a trifle disdainfully. But the next moment she rose, and stood in front of him, almost as pale as he was. “You allow this sort of thing to be pub- lished?” “No. But it is published.” “And they dare to say things like this? Why it—it is’—— “Exactly. it is, undoubtedly.” was very calm. “I wonld not have troubled you with it. But the situa- tion is bad. We are rather helpless.”’ “Not—the army, too?” “What can we teil? These things spread like fires. Nothing may hap- pen for years. On the other hand, to- morrow” The Archduchess was terrified. She had known that there was disaffection about. She knew that im the last few years precautions at the palace had been increased. Sentries were doubled. Men in the uniforms of lackeys, but doing no labor, were everywhere. But with time and safety she had felt se- cure. “Of course,” the King resumed, “things are not as bad as that paper indicates. It is the voice of the few, rather than the many. Still, it is a voice.”’ Annunciata looked more than her age now. She glanced around the room as though, already, she heard the mob at the doors. “as “It ie not safe to stay here, is it?’ she asked. “We rould go to the summer palace. That, at least, is isolated.” gee “Too isolated,” said the King dryly. “And flight! Whe very spark, perhaps, to start a blaze. Besides,” he reminded her, “I could not make the journey. If you wonld like to go, however, probably it can be arranged.” But Annunciata was not minded to go without the court. And she reflected, not unwisely, that if things were really as bad as they appeared, to isolate her- self, helpless in the mountains, would be but to play into the enemy's hand. “To return to the matter of Hedwig’s marriage,” said the King. “I"—— “Marriage' When our very lives are threatened!” “Il weuld be greatly honored,” said the King. “if | might be permitted to finish what | was saying.” She bad the grace to flush. PAGE TEN He ake of “Under the circumstances,” the King resumed, “Hedwig’s marriage takes on great significance— great political significance.” For a half-hour, then, he talked te her. More than for years, he unbosomed himself. He had tried. His Ministers had tried. Taxes had been lightened: the representation of the people increased, until, as he said, he was only nominally ruler. But discontent remained. Some who had gone to America and re- turned with savings enough to set themselves up in business, had brought back with them the American idea. : He spoke without bitterness. They refused to al- low for the difference between a new country and an old one, tilled for many generations. They forgot their struggles across the sea and brought back only stories of prosperity. Emigration had increased, and those who remained whispered of a new order. where each man was the Government, and no man a King. Annunciata listened to the end. She feit no pity for those who would better them- selves by discontent and its product, re- volt. She felt only resentment, that her peace was being threatened, her position assailed. And in her resentment she in- cluded the King himself. He should have done better. These things, taken early “Just one word more,” he said, in his thin, old, high-bred voice. “Much of your unhappiness was of your own making.” enough, could have been arranged. And something of this she did not hesitate to say. “Karnia is quiet enough,” she finished, a final thrust. “Karnia is better off. A lowland, most of it, and fertile.” But a spot of color showed in his old cheeks. “IT am glad you spoke of Karnia. Whatever plans we make, Karnia must be considered.” “Why? Karnia does not consider us.” He raised his hand. “You are wrong. Just now, Karnia is doing us the honor of asking an alliance with us. A matrimonial alliance.” The Archduchess was hardly surprised, as one may ‘believe. But she was not minded to yield too easily. The old resentment agaimst her father flamed. In- different mother though she was, she made capital of a fear for Hedwig's happiness. In a cold and quiet voice she reminded him of her own wretchedness, and of Karl's reputation. * At last she succeeded in irritating the King—a more difficult thing nogggthan in earlier times, but not so hard a matter at He listened quietly un- til she had finished, amd then sent her away.

And so it was hastened. Irritation gave the King strength. That afternoon were summoned in haste the members of his Council —fat old Friese, young Marschall with the rat face, austere Bayerl with the white skin and burnifig eyes, and others. And to them all the King disclosed his reyal will. There was some demur. Friese, who sweated with displeasure, ranted about old enemies and broken pledges. But, after all, the ' King’s will was dominant. Friese could but voice his protest and relapse into greasy silence. The Chancellor sat silent during the conclave, silent, but intent. On each speaker he turned his eyes, and waited until at last Karl’s pro- postal,” with its promises, was laid before them in full. Then, and only then, the Chancellor rose. His speech was short. He told them of what they all knew, their own insecurity. He spoke but a word of the Crown Prince, but that softly. And he drew for them a picture of the future that set their hearts to glowing—a throne secure, a greater kingdom, freedom from the costs of war, a harbor by the sea. > Sane And if, as he spoke, he saw not Eg reg the rat eyes of Marschall, the greedy NE ones of some of the others, but in- stead a girl’s wide and pleading ones, he resolutely went on. Life was a sacrifice. Youth would pass, and love with it, but the country must survive. The battle, which was no baitle at all, was won. He had won. The country had won. The Crown Prince had won. Only Hedwig had lost. And only Mettlich knew just how she had lost. When the Council, bowing deep, had gone away, the Chancellor re- mained standing by a window. He was feeling old and very tired. All that day, until the Council met with the King, he had sat in the little office on a back street, which was the headquarters of the secret serv- ice. All that day men had come and gone, bringing false clews which led nowhere. The earth had swallowed up Nikky Larisch. “IT hope you are satisfied,”’ said the King grimly, from behind him. “It was your arrangement.” “It was my hope, sire,” replied the Chancellor drvly. The mecessity work brought the King the strength to do it. Mettlich remained with him. Boxes were brought from vaults, unlocked and ex- amined. Secretaries came and went. At 8 o'clock a frugal dinner was spread in the study, and they ate it almost literally over state documents. On and on, until midnight or thereabouts. Then they stopped. The thing was arranged. Nothing was left now but to carry the world to Karl. Two things were necessary: Haste. having determined it, would lose no time. And dig- nity. The granddaughter of the King must be offered with ceremony. No ordinary King’s messenger, then, but some dignitary of the court. To this emergency Mettlich rose like the doughty old warrior and statesman that he was. “If you are will- ing, sire,’ he said, as he rose, “I will go myself.”’ “When?” “Since it must be done, the sooner the better. night, sire.” The King smiled, . i” - —_- tis, : rs 2 “ ss “a : , . bet TR hg = Aw - *\e 7 *s . .
