OVER WATER RIGHTS

Washington, D. C June 7. Care-ful investigation by the United Sta-te Fuel Administration show thatthe country will have need of ap-

proximately 735,000,000 tons of coalfor the current coal year endingMarch 31 1919. To reach this hugetotal would require that the UnitedStates produce considerabely morecoal than all the rest of the worldcombined.

Of this total 100,000,000 net tonsis apportioned to the anthricite min-es and 635,00,000 net tons to the bituminous mines. The apportionmentto the anthracite mines about equalsthe output of 1917. That of the bit-uminous mines' represents an increased production of 85,000,000 nettons. To meet the additional requir-ments for bituminous coal necessita-tes an average weekly productionexceeding 12,000,000 tons. The .topnotch of production was reached forthe week of May 11, when the out-put recorded was 11325,000 tons. Ev-en should this high average be carri-ed through to December, there willbe a natural decline in productionafter that time, due to the addeddifficulties of transportation duringthe winter season.

The increased demand for bitum-inous coal is brougiht about by theamazing developement of the waractivities of the Government. Addi-tional coal is demanded in the equip-ment of our armies, the building ofships, the expansion of the Navy,and for all of the industrial activi-ties involved in the production ofwar essentials. One single war plantis now demanding 5000 tons of coata day and by July 1 its requirmentswill reach 7000 tons a day. Four newmunition plants will need this yearmore bituminous coal than was lastyear consumed by all the shops, fac-

tories, plants?' gas works, powerplants and street railways in theState of New Jersey. In addition tothe industrial requirments the householders must be provided with theirquota of coal.

The fuel administration and theRailroad Administration are work-ing in harmony in their efforts toreach the demands of the countryfor fuel. In their efforts to fill thedemands they have the cooperationof the miners and operators throu-ghout all the coal fields.

TRIP TO LAKE BUFORDBALKED BY BAD ROADS

Tha six day trip planned by SantaFe and Albuquerque jgjame 'enthu-siasts to Lake Buford was called offon account of the condition of theroads. Arrangements had been madein the Estancia valley to feed a bigcrowd at several of the proposedstopping places.

The lake has been renamed andset aside as a refuge place for wildducks, and the optimist would saythat the weather will at least beappreciated by the ducks, and forthat matter it is their lake after all.

DONT BE AN ACCESSORYBRING PROFITEERS TO TIME

The President placed himself inan embarrasing position when he declared in his recent address to Con'Kress that there now exists profiteernig tnat cannot be got at by the res-traints of conscience "and the infor-mation with regard to it is availableand indisputable. As Senator Borahvery pertinently pointed out. thegovernment has recntly convicted awoman of sedition for saying amongotner things, "No government whichis for the profiteers can also be forthe people, I am for the people.while the government is for the pro-fiteers." There is no question thatthei woman was wrong in sayingthat the government is for the prof-iteers, and yet she has a semblanceof corrogoration when the Presidentannounces that the government hasevidence "available and indisputable"if the profiters be not brought toaccount. It is surely up to the admin-istration to name and convict theprofiteers, in the public mind if notin the courts.

GOVERNMENT RATE MUCHHIGHER THAN THIS STATES'

In a case recently decided by thegeneral" land office in which thenewspaper charge for publishing anotice of final proof on mineral en-

try was questioned, it was held thatas both the old and new legal ratesin New Mexico were less than therate allowed by the government forsuch publications, no action wasnecessary on that feature of thecase. The charge which was 5 centsper line per week was therefore sus-tained. Congressman Walton prom-ptly reported this decision to all thenewspapers of the state by circularletter.

The case was argued on its appealbefore the state supreme court Tues-

day. Herbert D. Mason of Tulsa,Oklahoma ; E. R. Wright and FrancisC. Wilson of Santa Fe appeared forthe plaintiff. One argument

was that Mechcm's holdingwould enable any one to silence snewspaper during a political cam-

District Judge Reed Holloman satin the place of Justice Clarence J.Roberts on the supreme court tohear the case. Attorney GeneralHarry L. Patton and assistant attorney General Hatch representedthe state.

The state took the position thatMr. Johnson had a fair trial thathe used the instrumentality of hispaper, the Santa Fe New Mexican.to obstruct the course of a case thenpending before the court.

The pending case referred to isthe libel proceeding brought by aSocorro county man against theNew Mexican, charging that thepaper alleged he had desecrated theAmerican flag. The New Mexicanat that time was adjudged guilty oflibeL

Like election returnes in NewMexico, reports from the registrationof June S have been slow cominginto 4he capitol. Enough countieshave been heard from by this timeto indicate that the number of boyswho have reached) the age of 21this year and have not already join-ed the service is about half what theauthorities expected.

Taking the proportion of men atthe age of 21 years who registered inthe draft a year ago, it was foundto be near 10 per cent. Using thisratio as a basis New Mexico was ex-

pected to raise quota of 3500. Ow-

ing to the fact that a greater pro-portion of New Mexico boys haveenlisted than the average for otherstates, many of the boys who werecounted on to register were foundto be already with the colors, having enlisted in the army.

Captain K. C. Keid. federal disbursing oficcr here, states that whereasfor the United States in general theproportion of volunters to the totalnumber of men in the army is 66per cent, in New Mexico the proportion is 87 per cent.

THE BEAM IN HIS EYEHIDES PUBLIC WELFARE

Special to State Record.Washington, June 11. When re-

ports are heard of the uterly reck-less expenditures the present Admin-istration is making one naturallythinks of the thousands of poorpeople who are denying themselvesreal necessities to. make a paymentof a dollar a week on a Liberty Bond.The Chairman of the Senate Com-mittee on Commerce is a FloridaDemocrat. He has a small privateoffice adjoining the larger commit-tee room in the Capitol that heconceived to be inadequately lighted.The other day there was installedon his order a ten-lin- ht chandelierof cut glass which coat the gov-ernment $500. It is understood thattn e illumination ot the little roomis now sufficient. The Irony of thething is that the Commerce Com-

mittee is the one that has been in-

vestigating" the Hog Island ship-building plant, concerning which suchloud cries of extravagance wereraised.

LARGE NUMBER TEACHERS ATSILVER CITY STATE NORMAL

With an enrollment the openingweek of almost 300 teachers and j-

the State Normal summerschool bids fair to equal, if not ex-

ceed its enrollment of last year. Thisis regarded as remarkable, inasmuchas the war has had a marked effecton school attendance at the highereducational institutions.

President E. L. Enloe, who hasworked hard to make this year'ssummer school a success is especia-lly gratified at the large attendance.The teachers attending are from al-

most every section of the state.

MILLERS ASK FOR

SPECIAL RATE ON

NEW MEXICO GRAIN

OUTPUT FOR THE STATE FOR

THIS YEAR IS OFFICIALLY

ESTIMATED AT 2,290,000BUSHELS OF WHEAT A

BIG INCREASE

Special rates for the moving ofwheat and flour in New Mexico willbe applied for by a committee repre-senting the millers and wheat raiserswho met in Albuquerque last week.Data was telceraohed to Washingtonshowing the cost of milling in NewMexico, and a request for food re-

gulations that will secure justice tomillers and growers was included.

Col. A. J. Hunt, of Kansas City,chairman of the flour milling divi-

sion of the national food adminis-

tration, who was the principal speak-er at the meeting, advised the millersand wheat growers to secure modernmachinery for the handling of wheatin order to practice economy. Headvised all farmers to equip them-selves with modern threshing ma-

chinery as the loss in wheat by theuse of obsolete threshimr was enor-mous.

At the afternoon section a letterfrom R. F. Hane, field agent of thedepartment of agriculture, was read.Mr. Hare writes that the officialestimate of the output of wheatin New Mexico in 1918 is 2.290.000bushels. He writes that approximately 158,710 acres of wheat are incultivation.

The millers were told by Col. Huntthat the government was anxiousfor every mill, no matter how small,to continue grinding wheat.

PRAIRIE DOG POISON NOTTOOTHSOME TO THE QUAIL

NO DANGER SAYS WARDEN

Discussion of the action of thebiological survey of the UnitedStates which with the cooperationof the state has for some monthsbeen engaged in the task of des-

troying, all the prairie dogs in NewMexico, has been rife during thepast week.

It seems that the claim was madethat quail and in some cases dovespoisoned by( the grain which hasbeen set out as bait for the fieldrodents. State Game Warden Theodore Roualt, Jr. in a public letternas declared that little damage oithis kind has heeti done, in theknowledge of his office.

Only two quail, and hut a fewdoves have been poisoned so far ashe is informed, and this is ascrihe'lto the fact that poisoned oats wereused in one instance where otherswere not available.

The birds hull such grain as theypick up. and therefore do not usual-ly take the poison. The greatestcare is being used by 'the poisoncrews to set out only selected oats.

from 75 to 90 per cent of theprairie dogs are killed off by thepoisoning where it is being done.The remainder are thoked withpoison gas which is applied by meansof a special generator in the prairiedog holes.

Most of the work of poisoningby grain is now finished and severalcrews are at work in different partsof the state using the gas. Stock-men and farmers will gain to theextent of millions of dollars in in-

creased values when the prairie dogsare exterminated.

EACH UNIT OF OUR ARMYADOPTS FRENCH ORPHAN

The Stars and Stripes, official jo-

urnal of the American Expedition-ary Forces, has proposed lately toeach unit of f.eneral Pershing'sArmy, Infantry, Battery, and Esca-drill- e,

to adopt a French War Orph-an and give 500 francs a year untilthe majority of the child.

Sixty-fou- r adoption papers werepresented to the Bureau of News-papers and to the Committee of theAmerican Red Cross, the aviationdivision has adopted 19 orphans.One division has sent to the news-paper 1750 francs for two orphansand also provision for two others.A letter accompanying one of theserequests reads as follows;

"We are happy that you permit usto contribute and adopt so many or-

phans. We feel that this is a veryslight restitution to France for allthat we owe her."

Each unit is collecting so as tohave a little French child as a mas-cot. Most of the requests specifyage and how tall the child shall be,and very often the color of the hairand eyes. In the presence of so manythousand little children: the RedCross Committee has rather a taskto answer all these requirments.

NEW MEXICO LUMBERMENARE READY TO HELP WIN

THE WAR IN ANY MANNER

To help win the war by preparingto cooperate with the government tothe fullest extent should a lumberadministrator be appointed for thestate of New Mexico, representativesof the industry from all parts of thestate yesterday organized a Lumber-men! associotion, with especial ref-

erence to the retail trade. !

James Doolittte manager of the Al-

buquerque Lumber Co., was electedpresident; Jacob Proebstel of SantaFe. nt and Clarence Idenof the Gross Kelly company's LasVegas branch, secretary, statisticswill be compiled on the cost of do-

ing business, to be placed at thedisposal of the government. It isconsidered likely that a lumber ad-

ministrator will soon be named ineach of the states.

R. D. Mundell a member of theRocky Mountain Lumber DealersAssn., came from Denver to addressthe meeting and assist in the organ-ization. He brought a message froma national conference of businessmen in Chicago held three weeksago, to the effect that while manyof our citizens are prepared to givetheir lives if need be in the war.business men should be willing togive their property if asked for, andotherwise to organize for the aidof the government in any way itmay direct at this time.

Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Las Vegas.Espahola, Raton and other citieswere represented.

EL PASO & SOUTHWESTERN

RAILWAY ACCUSED OFWANTING WATER WHICH60 SETTLERS SAY THEYNEED FOR IRRIGATION

Sixty settlers in the Ruidoso vat-le- y

and along the Bonita and Eaglecreeks in Lincoln county were rep-resented in the federal district cou-rt here on Saturday, when they sought by injunction to restrain the ElPascki and Southwestern Railwayfrom tapping the headwaters of theRuidoso for railway purposes.

The claim was made by the farm-ing men of that vicinity that theyneed all the water that they can getand more. The wheat irrigating sea-son begins with the year's beginning,and corn, alfalfa and later gardencrops require water until the endof October. For thirty years theyhave been applying the waters ofthe Ruidoso and its tributary stre-ams as they see fit, and have brought1000 acres under cultivation along ariver frontage or 20 miles. Col. Geo-

rge W, Pritchard acted as their at-

torney, and among those appearingwere State Senator J. V. Tully andFrank B. Coe of Glencoe. The suitwas brought in the name of J. F. Allison and others.

The railway has begun the construction of a wier at a point 32 milesfrom their line, and it was on information that they had begun to getpipe ready that the suit was begun.The railway through their attorneyW. A. Hawkins denied that it wasthe intention of the road to builda pipe line just yet, and also deniedthat the farmers need all of thewater. He set up claim to certainor-tio- n

of the waters through a grant thatthe road has secured from the de-

partment of the interior in conjunc-tion with federal Indian servicr, andalleged that the water is needed bythe railway to operate a number ofextra trains made necessary by thjarmy camps along the E. P. & S. W.and connecting lines.

After hearing a number of witness-es and receiving affidavits coveringcertain contentions of both partiesto the suit, Federal Judge ColinNeblett ruled that the case will re-m-

on the docket, and may beopened up again at any time thecomplainants desire to do so, if it ap-pears to them that the railway hasmade a definite enough move on thewater resources on which to make aninjunction.

MESQUITE ADDS MOISTUREAND HUMUS TO THE SOIL

SAYS COLLEGE BULLETIN

That the mesquite bush is a factorin conserving moisture, and that itsuse for this purpose may be of bene-fit to the Nicw Mexico farmer is ad-vanced by the state agricultural col-

lege, after a series of experiments.In unirrigated mesa soils m this

part of thje country mesquite maybe used to store up moisture andalso to add nitrogen and humus tothe ground. Of course some sunshineis sacrificed on account of the shadefrom the bushes, but this is made up,it is claimed, by increased produc-tivity.

There are certain grasses andweeds that grow well in moderateshade; one of the most promisingof which appears to be the mespuitegrass (MUHLENBERGIA PORTE-RI- ).

In some places nearly everymesquite bush has more or less ofthis grass growing beneath it; andthe growth made by the grass, evenduring a dry season is usually fair-ly good. During 1917, several bunch-es of this plant, occupying a spaceof approximately twelve square feetbeneath a mesquite bush at StateCollege, N. M. produced a total of14.6 ounces of air dry matter, or atthe rate of 3312 pounds of hay peracre. The roots extended beyond thespace occupied by the top; but thegrass was at some disadvantage onaccount of being situated on soilthat was five of six inches higherthan surrounding ground, and someof the moisture that fell ran beyondthe reach of the roots. It had notbevn protected from stock in pastyears and it is doubtful if any othercrass common to southern NewMexico would have produced soheavily with such a small amountof moisture. The precipitation forthe whole year was ouly 5.58 inches;a small amount of which fell afterthe crass had been cut and weighed.The seed of this species germinatesfairly well, and it might not be verydifficult to improve the stand mater-ially under bushes. One or two ofthe stems were five feet long, in theshade, but while the grass will growin the open it seems to prefer shade,that is not too dense, with the great-er amount of moistune nitrogen andhumus.

The samples from beneath thebushes averaged 112 per cent higherin nitrogen and 62 per cent higher inhumus than those taken in the open,unprotected situations. One samplewas about two thirds as rich ia ni-

trogen as average cow manure.The rapid growth of plants be-

neath or near mesquite bushes iadue, evidently, not only to highermoisture content but to larger amo-unt of nitrogen and humus. If abetter stand of the bushes could beeconomically secured, more mois-ture would be available for thegrowth of grasses or other plant,and the soil would gradually be im-

proved; to say nothing of the lar-ge amount of nutritious fed thatwould be produced ia tha form tfjeans.

DECISION REGARDING THEPASSAGE OF STOCK OVERCHECKERBOARDS EXPLAINED

On the inquiry of readers who desire fuller information regarding thedecision handed down by SupremeCourt Justice Clarence J. Roberts,in the matter of checkerboard sec-tions of land, held in part be rail-ways and in part by' private ownersor lessees from the slate, the decisionis presented in the official languageof the court, in a less confusing formthan the condensed account Ri.eni'i the Kecord of last week.

In their motion for rehearing file!herein appellees have called to theattention of the court an error in thestutrment of faeff, in this, It sstatfd that the appellants were theoivMcrs, under leass, of a 42,000 acre,tract of land immediately east oftownships 15 and 16 north, range 7vi;-.t-

, N. M. P. M , and that the sto:kot the rcrnandez Company was !ar ;c- -

jno uax;3i4)f aa. nq meduio3motion of appellees by the trial court.The action of the court in strikingout the same was assigned as error,but was not considered by this courtas we did not find it' necessary topass upon the question presented. Thesixth paragraph of the answer, thematerial facts therein alleged beingset forth in the statement of facts,was likewise stricken by the trialcourt. As our conclusion was notinfluenced by the facts set forth inthe pleadings filed by appellants,stricken as stated by the trial court,such facts could welt have been omit- -

ted from the statement. I have carefully considered the motion filed fora rehearing and the able brief in

support of the same but find no reasonfor departing from the conclusionreached in the former opinion. Themotion for rehearing will thereforebe denied.

Stat. 322, which has been interpretedby them to absolutely prohibit anyperson, by any means, from obstruct-ing the free passage or transit overof through the public lands. And inthe case of the owner of alternaterailroad sections, he is held out tohave the right, by any means what-ever, to prevent the passage to or useof the sections withinthe ' range of his holdings if

sections are owned by thegovernment. This conclusion is con-

trary to the ordinary rules governingproperty rights and is no doubt in-

duced by the terms of the statuteas contrued. A different conclusionwhich commends itself to me,was reached in U. S. v. Rindge, 208Fed. 611. Feeling bound, however,by the decisions referred to in theopinion by Mr. Justice Roberts, 1

concur in the disposition heretoforemade of this case, with such correc-tion in the statement of facts as hasbeen made by him.

In regard to the right of way overthe sections held in private owner-ship. I think the well known prin-ciples governing easements shouldapply, to the effect that in the ex-ercise of the easement theutmost reasonable care is tobe exercised by the claimant ofto be exercised by the claimant ofthe easement so as to do the leastdamage to the servient estate. Prac-tically applied to such circumstancesas exist in this case, these principleswould require the crossing of herdsof animals at section corners ratherthan at any other place upon thealternate sections held in privateownership.

ENEMY AT MERCY OF FRENCHGUNS FOR SLIGHT ADVANCE

IN CENTER OF LINE.

Western Newtpaper t.'nlon News Rervlre.

With the American Army in France,June 11. The United States marinesattacked the Germans after daybreakMonlay morning and penetrated tbeGerman lines for about two-third-s of

a mile on a front in the Bel-lea-

wood, northwest of ChateauThierry. The Germans now hold onlythe nortehrn fringe of the wood. TlysAmericans captured two miueworferwhich are the pieces yet takenby them.

The Germans in the center of theirnew attack on the front betweenMontdidler and Noyon have e'.uincdadditional ground against the French,but on both the right and Irft wingsthey are being held. In violent suc-

cessive attacks Monday they ccpturedthe villages of Mery, Bolloy and St.Maure and also pressed forward andgained a footing In the viHago of

Marqueglise, the last named placerepresenting the deepest point of pen-

etration since tho offensive beganbetween five and Elx milos. TheFrench still are exacting a heavy tollin lives from t.ie Germans as thry de-

liver their attacks in waves, and aM

giving ground only when forced to doso under superiority of numbers. No-

where has the enor.y been able topierce the front, which has been bentback in perfect order whenever thenecessity arose.

The battle Is described by corre-

spondents as one of the most furiousthat has been fought since the warbecan, with the enemy unusually reck- -

less in wasting life to gain his ob-- I

jectives.Tho latest official communication

from the German war office says adtli- -

tional ground has been gained by theGermans southwest of Noyon againstnewly brougnt-u- p French reinforce-ments and that the Germans havetaken about 8,000 prisoners an someguns.

Near Bussiares, northwest of Cha-

teau Thierry, the Americans andFrench again have delivered strong at- -

tacks against the Germans and takenmore ground. They also captured anumber of prisoners and thirty ma-- I

chine guns. On tl.e remainder of thefront in France and Belgium the op-- I

erations have been of a mlt.or nature,although south of the Somme th" irit- -

ish near Bouzencourt have carried actan operation which straighten' 1 outa threatening salient that sagged int tipir file

With the American Army in France,June 10. Attacks by the Germans inthe Marno sector have again been re-

pulsed by the Americans, who inflict-ed heavy losses on the enemy. TheFrench repulsed two attacks againstHill 204, west of Chateau Thierry, thefirst at 10 o'clock Saturday night, amithe second at 3 o'clock Sunday morn-

ing. French troops captured a woodsouth of Buzziares. A new Germandivision, the Fifth Grenadier Guards,was identified by the Americans.

Washington, June 10. The Ameri-can steamer Pinar del Rio was sunkby a German submarine seventy milesoff the coast of Maryland Saturdaymorning. One of her coats, with thocaptain and seventeen members of tliacrew, is missing; another, with ChiefMate Orkes and fifteen men, landedat the Ma-nte- life station on theNorth Carolina coast, about fifty-fiv- e

miles below Norfolk, Va., it is an-

nounced from Norfolk. A brief dis-

patch to the Navy Department an-

nouncing the sinking did not saywhether the ship was shelled or tor-

pedoed. Hope is held that the miss-

ing boat has been picked up by somepassing vessel or will turn up at somepoint along the coast. Until last nightthe raiders bad not been reported asshowing themselves since tbe Nor-

wegian steamer Vinland was sunkoff the Virginia capes last Wednes-day.

Between Montdidler and Noyon,over a front of about twenty miles,preceded by a heavy bombardmentwith shells and noxious gases, the en-

emy's initial maneuver evidently hasin view the bending back of the alliedfront toward the towno f St. Just onthe northern wing and toward the rail-road Junction of Compeigne on thesouthern flank, getting astride theOlse river and driving southwest to-

ward the French capital.

AID FOR RULING CLASS

CAUSES OF WAR WERE SIMPLY

. THE GERMAN DESIRE FOR

WORLD DOMINION.

Western Newnpuper ITrilun Nkwb Service.

Schenectady, N. Y. "Prusslanlsmand the idea of enduring peace amongnations can never be brought Into har-

mony; compromise eannot even beconsidered," Robert Lansing, secretaryof state, declared here In an addressas honorary chancellor of Union Col-

lege for 1918. Instance after instancefrom his own experience at the headof America's foreign offlcR were citedto prove his point because, he assert-

ed, "Americans, even those intellectu-

ally equipped, have but vague ideas ofthe attitude which made Prussianismpossible.

"It is a fact, not generally known,"said Secretary Lansing, "that withinsix weeks after the imperial govern-ment had, In the case of the Sussex,given this government Its solemnpromise that it would cease ruthlessslaughter upon the high seas. CountBernstorff, appreciating the worthless-nes- s

of the promise, asked the Berlinforeign office to advise him In ampletime before the campaign of submarinemurder was renewed. In order that hemight notify the German merchantships in American ports to destroytheir machinery, because he anticipat-ed that the renewal of that method ofwarfare would, in all probability, bringthe United States into the war.

"How well the ambassador knewthe character of his government endhow perfectly frank he was. Ho askedfor the information without apologyor indirection. The very bluntness ofhis message shows he was sure his uu

periors would not take offense at theassumption that their word was valueless and had only been given to gaintime and that, when an increase of

Germany's submarine fleet warranted.the promise would be broken withouthesitation or compunction. What acommentary on Bernstori'f's estimateof the sense of honor and good faithof his government!

"In view of this spirit of hypocrisyand bad fait h, manifesting an entirelack of conscience, we ought not to beastonished that the Berlin foreign offlee never permitted a promise or a

treaty engagement to stand in theway of a course of action which theGerman government deemed expedient.

"1 need not cite as proof of this factthe flagrant violations of the treatyneutralizing Belgium and the recenttreaty of Biest-Litovck- . This discred-itable characteristic of German foreign policy was accepted by Germandiplomats as a matter of course andas a natural, if not a praiseworthymethod of dealing with other governments."

The causes of the war, Mr. Lansingsaid, were simply the German desirefor world dominion.

"That was and is the centralthought of 1'russianism," he said. "Itexcited the cupidity of the governingand wealthy classes of the empire; itdazzled with its anticipated gloriesand by its promise of a boasted ra-

cial superiority the German millionswho were to be the instrument ofachievement. With a devotion andzeal worthy of a better cause, theyturned their energy into those chan-nels which would aid the rulingclass."

"We must go on with the war.There Is no other way. This taskmust not be left half done. We mustnot transmit to posterity a legacy ofblood and misery. We may In thisgreat conflict go down into the valleyof shadows, because our foe is power-ful and Inured to war. We must beprepared to meet disappointment andtemporary reverses, but we must, withAmerican spirit, rise above them ; withcourageous hearts we must go forwarduntil this war is won."

Mementoes of Conquests Held by"Gertrude," Who Finds Build

Better Fitted for FeminineThan Masculine Robes.

El Paso, Tex. The most remarkablecase of masquerading on record is thatcredited to "Gertrude" Garcia, twenty-thr- ee

years old and of Mexican par-entage, who successfully gulled de-

partment managers of San Francisco,El Paso, Tex., and other cities; be-

guiled scores of lovers; hoodwinkedthe police and even posed as a cloakmodel In exclusive women's establish-ments, demonstrating how easy it Isfor clothes to make the woman.

But "Gertrude" failed to fool onemon, Immigration Inspector E. M, Mar-nel- l,

on duty at the Internationalbridge at El Pase, when he attemptedto come across the American boundaryfrom Juarez with a passport signed"Maria" Garcia. A dazzling frock,high-heele- d shoes, the latest twist Incoiffures, penciled brows, Jet ear pend-ants and a stray dimple were not suf-ficient "camouflage" to fool the keen-eye- d

Inspector, and "Gertrude" and twoof her latest admirers and dupes wereturned back.

Garcla's Amazing Dual Life.The exposure brought to light the

amazing dual life led by Genobeba Gar-cia, born in Zacatecas, Mex., who firstentered the United States in the guiseof a woman In 1915, accompanied by aman who posed as her husband. Gar-cla's face Is as smooth as a child's. Itnever has known a razor. Ills habits,physiognomy, deportment and appear-ance are those of a woman.

gree." His hair, which he wears like awoman, extends far below the waist,when taken down. It never has beencut.

Mexican Had Many Admirers.Trunks which Garcia attempted to

get across the Mexican border at thetime he was apprehended containedquantities of feminine attire. Theyalso contained pictures of many men,who, Garcia cxplnlned with a smile,had been admirers of his and whonever had penetrated his disguise.Garcia told the Immigration officialsthat many of his conquests were madewhile he was posing as a cloak modelin shops at El Paso, San Diego andSan Francisco.

noted scientists ready for It here.Glasses were trained to read the riddleof the heavens and to study and photo-graph the sun's corona and spectrum.Definite conclusions drawn from theseobservations will be available only aft-

er comparison of results attained anddeductions as to their significance.The observations were declared to besuccessful, a slight cloudiness beingthe only drawback.

The expecti d results of plungingthe world Into darkness as of nightwere observed. Birds sought theirnests and chickens went to roost. A

gloom as deep as that at 10 o'clock atnight enveloped the favored strip of

country at the moment of totality.Electric lights were turned on Indoorsand street cars and automobiles hadtheir headlights burning.

Within a few minutes after the to-

To help carry foodstuffs to American cities the highway transport com-mittee of the council of national defense has evolved a nation-wid- e plan forrural express service to the centers of population from nearby productiveregions.

A special study has been made of food delivery systems into Washington,which shows that In the face of a growing Increase In population, whichalready has added 100,000 new residents to the District of Columbia's totul,practically no new means has been created to feed this added population.

The committee Is now experimenting on the rural express service. Notonly do the trucks haul food into Washington, but they do an extensive busi-ness In carrying goods from Washington merchants to the farmers.

Importance of Good Roads.Roads rule the world not kings nor

The road Isthe only royal line In a democracy, theonly legislature that never changes,the only court that never steeps, theonly army that never quits, the firstaid to the redemption of any nation,the exodus from stagnation in any society, the call from savagery In anytribe, the high priest of prosperity,without beginnings of days or end oflife. The road is umpire In every war.and when after the war the new mapIs made, the road simply pushes on Itsgreat campaign of help, hope, brother-hood, efficiency and peace.

By WILLIAM A. RADFORD.Home is a pluce to rest, and every-

thing about it should b conducive torepose. Finishing the interior, there-fore- ,

Is not so much a problem of dec-oration as of knowledge of color andits effect upon the nerves and life.It is the expression of the taste andlife of the occupants, und should ex-

press "honesty, l, dignity,common sense and good taste," as wellas be sanitary, economical and artis-tic.

Some will prefer one color, othersanother ; but some things ore acceptedIn all decoration, however simple itmay be. The hall, drawing-roo- andliving room are naturally the roomsto which attention Is first given, andat all times, past and present thesoft, dull colors light yellows, greens,blues and browns have been favoredfor these portions of the house. Forbedrooms and the apartments in whichyoung women take delight, light, delicate colors are chosen. On the otherhand, for the dining room, library and

more formal apartments of special .In-

terest to men, the stronger, richer col-ors dark reds, greens, blues andbrowns have been used.

The amount of light and the sizeof the room are Important factors Indetermining the color of the wall andwoodwork. The greater the light thedarker the color that may be usedthough very dark colors should alwaysbe avoided. Warm colors, Includingcream, buff, tan, golden brown, reddishbrown, etc., are best for rooms wherethe light Is from the north, whilerooms with a southerly exposure arebest In the cooler colors grayish,bluish and greenish tones, cool tans,neutral browns, etc.

Tinted Walls for 8mall Rooms.Good taste, as well as reason, sug-

gests that for the smaller rooms socommon in our modern building, plain,light-tinte- d walls are best. The large,figured wull papers are wrong for sucha house. A room with low cellingshould have the wall color to the cor-ner. Rooms with high ceilings mayhave the "drop celling."

The effect of any room depends asmuch upon the reflected light as upon

that which comes directly through thewindows. It Is Important, therefore,that the ceiling be light and of a color to reflect rather than to absorblight.

In determining colors In our modernhouses, the various parts of which areso generally thrown together by theuse of large openings, harmony oreven uniformity of color is particular-ly Important Not only must the colorof the individual room be good, but Itmust be in harmony with the hall andother rooms into which it opens. It lanecessary, then, to. plan a color schemefor the whole house In which violentcontrasts will be avoided and restfulharmonies encouraged. It is possibleunder most building conditions to havecomplete harmony for the house, to-

gether with variety In the rooms. Thehouse builder should use a dominantcolor, and then modify this by givingdifferent tones to the different rooms.

Finish of Woodwork ImportantNaturally, floors and woodwork have

much to do with the final effects. Aaa rule, the floors on a single storyshould be continuous in color and fin-

ish. For the woodwork, a large vari-

ety of effects la possible In these days edof attractive stains. The danger Is thatthis will be overdone. On the otherhand, the tendency toward simple fin-

ish with white enamel Is to be en-

couraged. It can be used with almostany color scheme, and Is particularlyappropriate for the simple style ofarchitecture In vogue in many homes.

Brief Tour Sufficed to Make HerAcquainted With New York, and

She Realised It Was Not AllThat She Had Pictured.

How Minnie, tired of the prosaic lifein her little home town, ran away toNew York and how the New York po-lice fouud her and returned her to herparents is one of the incidents de-scribed by Zoe Beckley In an article Inthe People's Home Journal on "NewYork the Tort of Missing Girls andBoys." Minnie's parents had wiredthe New York police, and Capt. GrantWilliams of the missing persons bu-

reau, by methods the police keep secret, had located Minnie. The rest ofthe Incident gives a picture of modernpolice methods rarely presented to thepuimc.

At half-pas- t seven that same mornIng, writes Miss Beckley, Minnie Bar--nell, lying awake and worried In a littie room in an obscure New York hotel.was an astonished girl when she hearda shnrp "rat-tat-t- I" at her door anda voice saying, "It's all right, Minnie;I'm a friend with a messuge fromhome." Minnie sut up and blinked.

A short white later she was lookingInto the face of a stranger, mild ofmanner and kind of eye. He was thesort of man Minnie had heard givestereoptlcon lectures in her homechurcli many a time a man easy totalk to, because you Instinctivelytrusted him and felt he would understand. Still there was a certain keen,steady look in his brown eyes.

Minnie was angry. "Who are you,anyhowT" she flung defiantly. "Whatright have you to come here?"

"My name Is Williams Grant Wil-liams. I'm from police headquarters."

Minnie's fuce flushed hotly. "You'regoing to try to send me home!" shecried. "Well, I won't go. You canarrest me If you like, but I won't goback. They've Just sent for me out ofmeanness. Well, I can be mean, toolI've slaved all I'm going to. I've neverseen anything or been anywhere ordone anything in my life but work undslave and sit home. Now I've a chanceto go with a musical show. I'm goingto play the xylophone. I can earngood money. I won't go home! Andwhat are you going to do about It?"

"Well," answered Williams, rubbinghis chin, "I don't want to send youhome against your will. But yourmother's pretty sick. Suppose we huveeoroo break fuk t first, and talk It over?I'll wait for you downstairs."

After coffee and hnm and eggs ot anearby restuurunt, Minnie's sullen un-g-

relaxed a little. Sho found herselftelling this man from headquartersabout her home and her work as ste-

nographer at ten dollars a week, andhow tied down she wus by reason ofher mother's Invalidism and her fa-

ther's sternness. And how she longed"to see something."

"Good!" said Williams. "I'll showyou New York."

The girl's eyes widened. The cap-tain slipped away a moment and wiredJonas Burnell :

"Minnie found. Safe. Meet us atGrand Central lit 4 p. m."

Then he started out with Minnie.They rode on a street car to Batterypark ; visited the aquarium ; walked upthe wondrous canyon of Broadway;saw Wall street and the stock ex-

change, and Trinity church dwarfedamong the skyscrapers. They passedthe Singer tower and the Woolworthbuilding, the ancient post office andthe beautiful city hall. Newspaperrow and the Bowery, dim and grim.were pointed out and Minnie forgotber appointment with the musical showmanager.

With her unusual guide she tookanother street cur that turned east onDelancey street, revealing a seethingtenement district the like of which shehad not pictured in her wildest dreams.She saw a single block where more people lived than In her whole town. Shesaw more poverty, more evidences ofprivation and sorrow than she believedexisted in the world, let alone NewYork, the city of millionaires.

They went uptown and took a dashthrough Fifth avenue, skimmed Forty-secon-

street and glimpsed Broadway.Minnie's defiance hud melted away. Inits pluce was the weariness of thesatisfied sightseer. She declined posltlvely to have luncheon, saying thatshe preferred to have it on the traingoing home with her father.

Minnie was back home before mid'night, her mother's glad tears uponher cheek, her shoulder warm fromher dad's bard hug. She went to workMonday morning as usual. Her employer never even knew she hud beenaway.

"At an expense of exactly one dol-la- rbreakfast and carfures," grinned

Captain Williams, telling me the storyas we sat In his office at headquarters."Minnie Burnell was cured of theobsession that made her wretched athornet It's amazing how easily thehuman mind unklnks Itself as soonas It has the least normal outlet Min-

The girl who Is absorbed Inhaving a good t'me and looking outfor Number One, feels aggrieved If tothese weighty duties is added a triflingresponsibility for others, while herbusy overburdened neighbor with ascore of claims upon her time andstrength, can always find time to helpsomewhere.

Instead of having the doorhinged forward, the hinge was placedat the rear. Metal fasteners weremade for each door and these securedas door hooks. These fasteners holdthe doors open about three Inches, andwhen driving, a stream of cool air en-ters the front-openin- g door, passingout at the opposite side.

IMPRESSED BY MOTORTRUCK

Farmers Could Not Help but See Valueof Machines as They Carried

Immense Loads. '

Farmers in nearly all parts of theUnited States have had Impressedupon them the value of the motor-truck for farm work. The railroadcongestion and the shortage of railroad equipment made it particularlynecessary during the past five or sixmonths to send new trucks overlandfrom the factories and to handle largequantities of freight such as or--dinarlly would have been handledby the railroads, by using motortrucks.These conditions took the trucksout Into the farming districts In great-er numbers and with greater fre-quency than ever before.

To check the loss from plant diseases In shipments which also meansa loss of time, labor, mnterinl, andtransportation the food products In-

spectors of the bureau of markets stationed In most of the large receivingcenters now keep close watch forplunt discuses on fruits and vegetablesarriving on the markets.

Bad Product Not Wanted.Diseased fruits and vegetables ore

not wanted In the markets any morethan on the farm, and when rurlotshipments urrlve showing evidence ofplant diseases their selling value isdecreased even if none of the producemust be thrown away. Sometimes, Inthe ense of very perishable crops, likeberries' or lettuce, there are seriouslosses of food because the shipmentscurried plunt diseases when loaded.While no shipper would knowinglyload badly Infected fruits or vegetables, such produce may reach themarkets in poor condition because thedisease was present when loaded anddeveloped In trunsit. This Is especially true where shipments are madewithout providing proper ventilationor refrigeration.

Steps to Combat Disease.Whenever shipments of produce suf

fering from plunt discuses arrive theInspectors immediately notify theshipper, and through the pathologistsof the department of agriculture thecounty agent In the locality wherethe diseased shipment originated isInstructed to take steps to combat thedisease.

Although the Inspection service hasbeen in operation only a few monthsas a part of the general Inspectionwork of the department In certifyingto shippers the condition of carlotshipments as they arrive at markets,already It has resulted In the detec-tion of diseases In many shipments.and bus allied growers and plant path-ologists of the department in con-

Shortage of Harvest Labor.Of all the agricultural labor prob-

lems confronting the farmers of thecountry at this time, probubly the mostserious Is that of getting enouch helpto harvest the whent crop. In normaltimes there wus a shifting populationof from 30.000 to 50,(100 men who fol-

5 PLANT FOOD DISEASES

Ton know something of howthe I'nlted States department ofAgriculture protects America's100,000,000 consumers againstdiseased animal products.

Do you know that the depart-ment is Just as vigilant In pro-

tecting the same consumersngnlnst diseased vegetable prod-ucts?

That, anyhow, Is true.But do not be too conceited

over what the department Is do-

ing for you.The department Is Interested

tn the consumer as an Individ-ual In bis personal welfare, In

seeing that he has good, whole-some foods.

But it Is also Interested in thepopulation en mnsso In seeingthnt everybody gets ENOUGHfood.

Diseased vegetable products, of U

course, are not good for the In- -

uiviimai. nut tnere is anotnerelement. When vegetables areallowed to become diseased. Intransit or otherwise, and haveto be thrown away, the total sup-

ply of available food Is reducedby Just thut much, and some-

body has to do some morescrimping.

Those are the two reasonswhy the United States depart-ment of agriculture devotes agood deal of attention to pro-

tecting vegetable foods agulnstdiseases found at markets.

2.4....e...o..?To Aid Man Power.

Prof. G. I. Christie, assistant to Secretary of Agriculture Houston, recently pointed out some striking Illustrations of how the available labor supply could be used to much better advantage If supplemented by ma-

chinery; of how some labor Is notfully utilized because machinery Is notused. On one farm tn the corn belthe saw two strong men, each with nteam of horses and a single moldboardplow, following each other around theHeld. On an adjoining farm a seventeen--

year-old boy, driving four horsesto a plow, wos doing asmuch and better work. On one farm.two men with two horses to a wagonwere spreading manure with forks. Onan adjoining farm one man with threehorses to n manure spreader was ac-

complishing a larger amount of worktn a more efficient wny. For lack ofproper machinery the labor of one ofthe men plowing and one of the menscattering manure was thrown away.Professor Christie points out that dur-ing the rest of the season farmers canhandle their work with a materiallyreduced number of men If they availthemselves of such things as thedouble cutaway harrow, wide cutterbur of mower and binder, sheaf car-rier on the grain harvester, tractor,haying tools, milking machine.

Your County AgentDo not forget that there Is a sort

of deputy secretary of agriculture whois always ready to help you with yourpoultry problems. He Is the farmdemonstrator for the United Statesdepartment of agriculture. He Is com-

monly known as "the county agent."If there are young people in yourhousehold he would no doubt like toenroll them in the clubs for poultryraising which are carried on In mostof the states. He Is a good man toget In touch with and to keep intouch with.

Some of the advice Is Illuminating:"If you prefer you may have a cementfloor In the garage, but for severalyears past I have used fine white sandabout three inches deep. The cost Isabout (1 or $2 a cubic yard and threeyards will be ample for your needs.Grease, gasoline and water are absorbed Instead of staying to messthings up. Occasionally you rake thefloor to bring the clean sand to thetop. A little heap at the far endmakes a most convenient bumper andlessens the chances of banging Intothe rear wall, I've found. Finally,sand Is far easier than cement on thetires of standing ' cars. The shoe lanot flattened out at the point of contact but makes a slight bed for Itselfto keep Its normal shape. This Isreally a very Important point, espe-cially for folk who lay up their carsfor a long time.

Wash Car In Comfort."By all means have a hydrant Just

Inside your garage, then In severe orstormy weather you can wash the carIn some sort of comfort Most folkwould advise an underground gasolinetank too, but that depends on clrcumstances. Since the early part of thewinter I have not been able to getgasoline in any quantity. The fewgallons I did manage to bring homebarely sufficed to run my pumping en-

gine and small electric-ligh- t plant. Alarge underground tank would havebeen a useless investment Anyway,like most country folk, I have a littleOil house to bold kerosene, gasolineand lubricating oils. This house Isabout six feet square, Is covered withcorrugated Iron and stands at a safedistance from all other buildings. Ona small suburban or city lot this sortof thing could not be built and a littleunderground tank Is almost a neces-sity.

Heat Not Necessary."Naturally, It Is out of the question

to heat such a garage as this, but Ifancy mighty few garages will beheated next winter. It makes littledifference, after all, for a mixture ofone part wood alcohol to two partswater will stay liquid under any ordi-nary temperature. And cylindersprimed with ether will fire at the firstturnover, no matter how cold."

Lots of Power and Wear.The dirt collected on the outside of

the engine Is not merely an eyesore.It gets Into the bearings and causesloss of power and wear. This (shortens the life of the engine. If the dirtla removed regularly this wear la prevented, and the car will last longer.

Dust Cover for Car.A dust cover for the entire car la

necessary, especially if the car la tobe laid np for the winter. It shouldcome down to the floor, covering everypart of the car completely. It keepsout dust and dirt which are exceedingly difficult to remove If allowed toremain any length of time.

President Proclaims June28thas National War Savings

DayWuhington, D. 0., May 30, 1918.

A Proclamation By the Pruidmt of tht VniUd State :

Thia war is on of nation, not of armiea, and all of oaron hundred million people mart be economically and indus-

trially adjusted to war condition If thia nation is to play itsfull part in the conflict. The problem before ua la not pri-

marily a financial problem, but rather a problem of increasedproduction of war essential and the aaving of the materialsand the labor necessary for the rapport and equipment of ourarmy and navy. Thoughtlaaa expenditure of money for non-

essentials uses up the labor of men, the products of the farms,mines and factories, and overburdens transportation, all ofwhich must be used to the utmost and at their best for warpurposes.

The great results which wo soak ean be obtained only bythe participation of every member of the nation, young andold, in a national concerted thrift movement I thereforeurge that our people everywhere pledge themselves, as sug-

gested by the Secretary of the Treasury, to the practice of

thrift, to serve the Government to their utmost in increasingproduction in all fields necessary to the winning of the war,to conserve food and fuel and useful materials of every kind,to devote their labor only to the most necessary tasks, and tobuy only those tilings which are essential to individual healthand efficiency, and that the people, as evidence of their loy-

alty, invest all that they can save in Liberty Bonds and WarSavings Stamps. The securities issued by the Treasury De-

partment are no many of them within the reach of every onethat the do.ir of opportunity in this matter is wide open toall of us. To practice thrift in peace times is a virtue andbrings great benefit to the individual at all times; with thedesperate need of the civilized world today for materials andlabor with which to end the war, the practice of individualthrift is a patriotic duty and a necessity.

I appeal to all who now own either Liberty Honda or WarSavings Stamps to con'iutie to practice economy and thrift,and to appeal to all who do not own government securities todo likewise, and purchase them to the extent of their meansThe man who buys government securities transfers the pur-

chasing power of his money to the United States Governmentuntil after this wur, and to that same degree does not buy In

competition with the GovernmentI earnestly appeal to every man, woman and child to

pledge themselves on or before the 28th of June to save con-

stantly and to buy as regularly as possibly the securities ofthe government, and to do this as far as possible throughmembership in War Savings Societies The 28th of June endsthis special period of enlistment in the great volunteer anuyof production and saving here at home May there be noneunenlisted on that day

The Dully Recorder, which next dayprinted Christopher's telegram, withsensational elaborations, Inclined moreand more to the theory of murder.

Between Helmsford and Tllton-on-Se-

Christopher could learn nothing.The Hansard was still in, charge ofthe police at the little seaside town.Christopher went to pay the car avisit, aud in looking it over carefully,an idea suddenly occurred to him.

He scraped off a bit of the brightly-varnishe- d

paint on the buck of theseat and brought to light a patch ofcolor red as blood.

No other tint could have been moreconspicuous than this crimson whichhad been lately covered with blue. Itwus of a shade even more noticeablethun that of Scarlet Runner; and thisdiscovery gave Christopher food forthought. A tnun might have his carrepainted for reasons other than

on-Sea, having gathered no excit-

ing new material for his evening tele-

gram to the paper; but as the softopal twilight of September fell, bewent out once more on the sands for aspin with Scarlet Runner.

This way must the blue motor-ca- r

to be waked If a caller or even a tele-

gram should come; but the clock onhis mantelpiece pointed to noon andhe still slept on. Not many minutesluter, however, bis telephone bell rangviolently. A clerk in the bureau ofthe hotel wished to advise monsieurof the fact that there was an Inquiryfor him, from the Kits. A lady stop-ping there was telephoning to know ifMonsieur Christopher Race were in,and, If so, whether be would receiveher if she called on urgent business.Madame did not care to announce hername, but she had a communication tomake concerning the affair which hadbrought Monsieur Race to Paris.

Seldom did a man bathe and dressin a shorter space of time; but whenhis visitor was announced, Christopherwus ready to receive her.

"Mr. Race?" she faltered."An American," thought Christopher.

"No, a Canadian," as aloud he claimedownership of the name she mentioned,

"You'll hardly believe It," she wenton, "but I've traveled all the way fromMontreal to talk to you, Mr. Ruce. Iarrived at Cherbourg yesterday after-noon, came on to I'uris, where I slept,as I was very tired after u rough voy-

age, und meant to leave for Londontoday; but I saw in the foreign editionof the Daily Recorder that you'd

in Purls, and would be ut thishotel, so I waited, and now I've cometo see you here."

"I am Mrs. Fortescue. When I wasseventeen and my husband was twenty-th-

ree, I married an Englishman whocame to Canada, In the diplomaticservice. We fell in love at first sight,and murried, against my people's wish,when we'd known each other only amonth. He bad to promise that we'dlive in my mother's house, otherwiseshe wouldn't have consented at all,and things didn't go well with us.I was a child. He was scarcely morethan a boy. We both had plenty ofmoney. I had been spoiled, and hehad a strong will. We quarreled; Iwas encouraged to thwart him. Whenhe wanted me to leave home and gowith him to England I refused. Thenwe quarreled a good deal more, andand, to make a long story short, weseparuted. I said I never wanted tosee him again, as he was so cruel ; undhe suld I never should see him, unlessI asked him to come. I thought Iwas glad when he was gone, but oh,I wasn't I Still, I was too proud tocull him back. I believed that he'dtired of me.

"A year ago, when I was left aloneIn the world, I came abroad for thefirst time. I didn't even know wheremy husband was, though once I'dheard of his being in India, and I remembered that he was free to travel,as be had given up his profession.Well, at a dinner-part- y In Loudon, myEnglish hostess said, 'Mrs. Fortescue,I'm going to give a namesake of yours,Mr. Fortescue, the pleusure of tukingyou in. You may discover that youhave relatives In common.'

"Can you imagine how I felt! Itwas my husband. Somehow, we man-aged to carry it off as if we werestrangers. He was handsomer thunever, and ho told ne that I had im-

proved. He told me, too, at that verydinner, that he'd never ceased to thickof me, had never cared for any otherwoman. He begged to call. I said hemight. Two days later he was implor-ing me to let everything between us beas if we'd never parted. I was temptedto yield ; but I feared to make anothermistake, and refused. Then he saidthat, if he lost me again, he wouldlose all Interest in life; that be wouldbe utterly miserable, because he caredfur more for me than he ever caredin old days. I was so terrified of be-

ing that I at once wentbuck home, though I'd meant to travelfor some time In Europe.

"After that I spent all my time Intrying to think I'd been wise, until Isaw the articles in the Dally Recorder(which I'd begun to take in, for London news) about the mystery of themotor-ca-r. Mr. Race, that Hansardcar was my husband's car, I'm sure,That's why I've flown to this sideagain. I'm afraid oh, horribly afraid

something dreadful has happened tohim. He'd Just bought a red Hansardcar, exactly answering the descriptionof the blue one you found In the sea,at the time he was begging me to behis wife again. He came in It to seeme and wanted me to go out with blm,as he was very keen on motoring. Afriend had sold the car to him a manI met at the same dinner I told youof. I didn't like the creature. I Ithink he rather admired me and wouldhave been glad to flirt, although mynusband had told him our story. I believe that my husband may have ashe threatened to do lost all InterestIn life and committed suicide. Or elsesome other awful thing has happened."

Christopher had begun to stammer,when there came an imperative knockat the door.

Mrs. Fortescue, trembling, checkedher sobs. "I mustn't be seen like this,"she faltered. "Who can It be?"

"Probably a detective I have em-

ployed," said Christopher. ,"Oh, then," she Implored, "let me

stop till be Is gone. Let me wait be-hind that tall screen."

Without waiting for permission, sheran across the room and hid herself.At the same moment the knock was re-

peated, and, rather than seem to de-

lay, with the lady In the room, Chris-topher called, "Come In."

Again be was surprised. Instead ofthe little French detective, he saw theman he had pursued to Paris.

This man, rather pale but composed,walked quickly into the room andclosed the door.

from a welter of surf, Kace drove offto London.

Leaving Scarlet Itunner in hergarage, he went to his club und pickedup the last edition of his favoritepaper.

His eyes run down column aftercolumn of the pages on which suchnews might be displayed, and finallycaught at a paragraph headed "Mys-tery of u Motor Car."

"Hero we are!" Christopher mut-tered, beginning to read with interest.Hut to his disappointment, the para-graph bad nothing to do with the uf-fu- lr

at Tllton-on-Se-

"Yesterday morning," he read, "anempty motor car was discovered onthe Oxford Itoad. A party of laborersgoing to work saw a blue-palnte- d

car of moderate size stand-ing by the roadside, with no one In it.They gave Information to the police ofNeedleham, the nearest town, and ahorse, was sent out to tow the auto-mobile to the police station. There Itwas recognized during the morning usthe property of a gentleman who hadarrived ut a hotel the evening before,unaccompanied by a chauffeur. Thisgentleman had already left town, butas be had gone by rail he was tracedto Oxford, about ten miles dlstuut.Interviewed there on the subject ofthe lost car he changed color, and ap-

peared at first somewhat agitated atlearning where It hud been found. Buthe expressed himself delighted to hearof Its recovery, offered a reward to themen who had given the information,and returned by the next train toNeedleham, where he took charge ofhis property. The gentleman's nameas it appeared In the visitor's book ofthe Bell and Bush Hotel of Needlehumwas John Smith, London. He refusedto lodge a complaint against any per-son for the theft of his motor, thoughhe did not deny in so many words thathe knew who had taken It. He wasnot, he said, altogether surprisedthat It should have disappeared, butfurther than this he declined to be In-

terviewed. Mr. Smith and bis car leftNeedleham immediately; but itsstranding In the woods remains a mys-tery which has aroused considerablelocal Interest."

"A d car ofmoderate size," Christopher repeatedto himself. This was a queer coin-cidence, to suy the least."

In the Loudon papers next day wereparagraphs concerning the finding ofan automobile on the East Coast incuriously suspicious clrcumstunces,and several Journals cited the occur-rence at Needleham us a queer coinci-dence. The Dully Recorder, a halfpenny paper of greut prominence andpopularity, seized with eagerness achoice morsel which might be workedInto a sensation for the approachingsilly season."It was while Christopher was read'

lug the column under a somewhat sen- -sational heading, which the Dally Recorder gave to the mystery of Til ton'

that the maid who brought hisbreakfast brought with it a visiting'card. The name was un unfuinlllurone, but the magic words, "Dally Recorder, were printed beneath, as akind of "Open Sesame" to closeddoors.

Tell the gentleman to come up,said he to the little servant who hudbrought him so many queer messagesand visitors of late.

In another moment a spruce-lookin- g

young man appeared not an ordinaryreporter, it seemed, but a representU'live deputed to ask Mr. Ruce's helpIn solving the mystery of the blue mo.tor-ca- r. The mutter was to be "takenup" by the Journal, and a reward wasto be offered for Information.

He agreed to the proposal, andpromised to begin Investigations atonce, the Dally Recorder giving himcarte blanche as to his proceedings.

The first thing that Christopher didwas to proceed In Scarlet Runner toNeedlehum, a pretty little town whichhad Just outgrown villagchood. At theest hotel he obtained a description

of Mr. John Smith, of London. FromNeedleham he went to Oxford (whither Mr. Smith had Journeyed by train),and sought the hotel where the miss-ing man had been found. There hehad given no name, but hud beentraced by the police of Needlehaia,through a cabman. Mr. Smith hudbeen Interrupted while lunching; andas he hud not asked for a room, itwas supposed he had not Intended tospend a night.

So far, Christopher had not accom-plished much, and his pride was atstake. He determined to travel fromNeedleham to Tilton-on-Se- a by shortstages, making researches here andthere. He could learn nothing of theblue motor or its driver, however,until at about six o'clock In the eve-ning be reached Helmsford.

On visiting one of theInns, Race discovered that a gentle-man had arrived In a motor car aboutnine o'clock two nights before, and haddemanded dinner. Each detail of thecar, so far as It could be remembered,agreed with those furnished by Chris-topher. But either John Smith hadbetween Needleham and Helmsford

CARING FOR COUNTRY ROADS

Heavily Loaded Wagons With NarrowTires Are Injurious Place Har-

rows on a Drag.

(By B. B. HOUSE, Colorado AgriculturalCollege, Fort Collins, Colo.)

. Excessive loads placed on wagonswith narrow tires are exceptionallybad for any road. Tractors usingwheels upon which are dents, or any-

thing that will cut through or Injurethe road surface should never be al-

lowed on country roads. Disk har-rows and In fact any cultivating toolshould be kept off the road. If ItIs necessary to move them along therood, place them upon a drag, stoneboat, or haul them to the field on awagon. If dragged over the road,they will scar the road badly, breakthrough the surface and start disin-tegration. No road Is in such poorcondition as to warrant abuse of thiskind.

ITEMS OF HIGHWAY EXPENSE

Interest on Investment and Cost ofMaintenance All Have Vital Bear.

Ing on Road Plans.

The following Is quoted from an ar-ticle by B. H. Piepmeler, maintenanceengineer, highway department, stnteof Illinois:

"There are three principal Items ofexpense connected with road Improve-ment which the engineer must Impressupon the public mind before It will bepossible for him to construct an econ-omical system of roads. These factorsare: The original cost of the Improve-ment; the interest on the money in-

vested In the Improvement, and the to-tal upkeep cost. When all of thesefactors are taken Into consideration, ItIs evident that many of the cheapertypes of roads, when properly main-tained, will give the desired serviceand yet will be much more economicalon account of their low first cost.

"When a type of road Is selected,taking Into consideration the threeprinciples set forth above, It is veryessential that provision be made forproper and efficient maintenance. Iflocal conditions are such that mainte-nance may be delayed or prevented,preference should be given to a typeof pavement that requires only a smallamount of maintenance and which willbe serviceable for a period of timeeven with no maintenance whatever.

Concrete Road In Suburbs of Chicago..

Neglecting proper maintenance for butone year on many types of roads isvery much more serious than theamount of money Involved represents.The road engineer should keep this Inmind and thoroughly Impress the factupon the Individuals who have a voiceIn the final determination of a type ofroad."

SIXTH EPISODE

The Mysterious Motor Car.

The tide wus coming anil the five'mile stretch of IkiiiIi was hard audglistening. Christopher l(ace could

Imrdly have chosen u butter place fura speed trial, to test the success of u

new inveiilion, nor a lietter time thunthe earliest hint of dawn.

He was excited, for uu experiinentwhich had absorbed two weeks of his

time, und ninny coins of his hard-earne-

money, was proving a success.So excited anil was he

that, when Scarlet Itunner hail de-

voured four sandy miles out of thedelicious live-mil- e course, only annoy-ance, unmixed with curiosity, wasaroused in his breast at sight of aknot of men standing at a distance,Knee-dee- In the sea. If they werefishermen, their irescnt occupationhad apparently nothing to do withtheir calling. For a moment he sawnothing suggestive In the grouping ofhalf a dozen eager men round some ob-

ject, half engulfed In water, which theywere striving to drag out. Hut, in fact,Christopher had some excuse for histemporary

Ills latest client had finished a wed-

ding trip "en automobile," whereuponltace had returned to London and beenthrown into the society of a fellow-enthusia-

for motors a young engineerwlio had designed a new invention. Itwas a very clever invention, for ut astroke It revolutionized all existingsystems of transmission, and did awaywith gear-box-

, pinions, and clutch.The Idea had Instantly caught

Ilace's fancy; and In the hour he deelded upon adopting the proposeiplan. Scarlet Hunner, thus rcgcnonit'ed, had come out of a Loudon workshop only two days ago, and now herewas Christopher with his scarlet dartIng, heart and engine both beating inthe hope of a long, satisfactory trialwith the sea and the rising sun as solewitnesses.

Within thirty yards of the group Inthe water ltace slackened speed, andwould have turned, sacrificing the lastmile of the five, had not one of themen seen hlia and begun to shout andbeckon. At the same moment severalothers broke away from the grjup to

hurry across the sand towards theapproaching motor; and Christophersaw, to his extreme surprise, that thething they had surrounded was a haltsubmerged automobile.

She was, to the eye of an expert Insuch matters, unmistakably a Hansard,of a pattern now surperseded.

Here was a mystery which made a

special appeal to the heart of a motor1st.

"Ilnlloa! What's happened here?"exclaimed Christopher to the man whomet Scarlet Itunner. "This looks aqueer business."

"That It does, sir, answered abrown old fisherman. "And as towhat s happened, we don t know nomore than you."

"Better send for the police beforetrying any amateur detective work."

"We hnve sent for the police fromTilton-on-Se- sir," said the elder man."My boy and I were the first to catchsight of this 'ere, and we got togethersome mates to help drag her out ofthe water before the tide gets up. Butshe's stood where she Is so long, herwheels have sunk Into the sand, andwe can't move her."

"I'll help with that work, If someof you will hitch a rope round herfront nnxle," Christopher volunteered."My car can tow her. But here comesa policeman now."

A blue-cla- d man, hastily dressed ata summons, was approaching, guidedby a boy. He stnred gravely at theautomobile, murmured that It lookedlike murder or suicide, and beganscribbling notes In a book producedfrom his pocket, while the derelict wasbeing rescued.

Evidently the man read other thanlocal papers, for he glanced up withInterest when Christopher Kace gavehis name and address.

At his request Christopher made acareful examination of the derelict,and announced with certainty that Itwas a Hansard, of a date about fouryears old, but elaborately altered andmodernized. He peered Into the geer-bo-

saw that the pinions were cleannnd new, and said that the motor hadapparently not run many miles sincebeing repaired. Another point to whichhe drew the attention of the constat)!?was that the number of the motor haJbeen carefully chiselled off, and thatthe numbar-plat-e of the cor Itself wasmissing. This showed that Its aban-donment bad been an act of delibera-tion.

Christopher had the curiosity to re-

main for an hour or two at Tllton-on-Se-

after towing the Hansard there.In the hope of some elucidation of themystery. But no unknown motoristhad stayed at the hotel there, or atany other near by to which inquirieswere sect. No such car as the rescuedHansard had been noticed by anyone;

nd at last, little wiser than when hehad first seen the squat shnpe rising

BENEFACTOR OF HUMAN RACE

Sir James 8impson Was the FirstPhysician to Use Chloroform In

Surgical Case.

The recent death of Sir AlexanderSimpson, the famous Edinburgh doc-tor, brings to mind the wonderful dis-covery of bis uncle Sir James Simp-son, his predecessor as professor ofmidwifery in the chair of Edinburghuniversity. Sir James, if not actuallythe discoverer of chloroform, was at

derer? Certulnly I've glven.you a gdoddeal of trouble, though I've made myself more. I shall probably be calledfor the rest of my days 'The Blue Mo- -tor-C- Idiot,' or something of the sort.If I have a remnant of hope left witha woman I love desperately, that wouldkill It, for already she's put thousandsor miles between us for rear or making herself ridiculous. Just wait tilltell you the story. It isn't excit-

ing; it's only silly; too silly notto be true, I bought a Hansardcar, second-hand- , of an alleged friend,and I was too much of an ami'teur to dream that he was palm-ing off a regular 'back number' on me.Once I got to know something of mo-

tors, as I soon did, I wasn't satisfied togo about the world with a thing likethat. So I ordered a

Ressler and tried tc sell the Han'sard, but It was socouldn't get buyers at any price,though I had her painted up, new gearing put In, and gave her new tires.

"Oh, Darling Boy," She Ex- -

claimed.

I tried to give the car away. Not asoul would have her! I grew desperate, and determined to abandon thebeastly nuisance somewhere. Needle-ham was the place I selected. Well,you know what happened. I began tosee that, if I wasn't foxy, she wouldalways be returning on my hands Inthe same way, so being an impulsive,Impatient sort of chop I said to myself,- - 'I'll shave off my beard, destroythe number on the car, with all othermeans of tracing the owner, and sendthe Hansard to Duvy Jones' Locker.'This seemed to me a good joke, andI quite looked forward to seeing Inthe papers that a lonely automobilehad been found putting out to sea.After I had driven on the beach youknow where as near the water as 1could get at that state of the tide, Itoccurred to me that It would be, awk-ward walking a long distance and thentraveling by train In a motor-coa- t andcap. I hid mine where I thought theywouldn't be discovered and make anybother, and went off as fast as I couldIn the night, wearing another sort ofcap which I found in the overcoatpocket

"Naturally I never thought there'dbe such a fuss.

"I thought everything was comingout all right till last night, when Itumbled across you at that Inn, recog-nized you by your pictures as thebloodhound on my track and thoughtyou recognized me. I wouldn't evenwatt for my chauffeur. I made up mymind be would go on to Dover anyway,and meant to wire him at the garage,where he was pretty sure to see mycar. But this morning, when I learnedIn the paper that In spite of all Ihadn't shaken you off, I saw the gamewas up, and If I didn't want to be ar-rested like a criminal I'd better cometo you and confess myself an ass.Now, as a fellow motorist, haven't yousome sympathy for me, and won't youhelp me to disappear?"

"I might call my dogs off for a bitand give you time to sail for Canada," said Christopher.

Fortescue started. "Why do you suggest Canada?"

Because" But the screen did notgive Christopher time to finish. It fellwith a crash and a beautiful youngwoman ran out from behind It.

"Oh, you darling boy?" she exclaimed. "If you are going to Canada,take me with you I"

That Is the reason why the mysteryof the blue motor car has been a mys-tery until now, why the editor andreaders of the Dally Recorder do notnow think as highly of the detectiveability of Christopher Race as theydid at first, and why large and magnificent yellow Ressler was sold atDover a marvelous bargain.

Do Good In Right Manner.The manner of saying or of doing

anything goes a great way in thevalue of the thing itself. It was wellsaid of him that called a good office,if done harshly and with an ill will,

"Yes," answered the chuuffeur; "It'sgone off without me."

"Perhaps I'm going his way," saidChristopher. "If so, you cun go onwith me. If you like, la my car. I'mstarting at once. What's your euployer's name?"

"Fortescue," replied the chauffeur."I dor.'t know much ubout him. I onlygot the job yesterdny. He's shippinghis cur a Resslerfrom Dover to Cululs by cargo boattonight."

Five minutes later Scarlet Runnerwas off, and flying faster than the lawallows. When Scarlet Runner rushedthrough Dover towards the quay, shepassed a yellow car standing in theopen doorway of a garage.

"That's she! I'd swear It!" criedthe chauffeur; and Christopher stoppedIn triumph. "We've done the trick!"he said to himself.

But, though they had tracked thecar, they had lost the man. The Ress-ler, It appeared, had had an ac-

cident. She had broken her change-spee- d

lever not far from the garagewhere Christopher found her standing,und her owner had paid some men tohelp him push her Into her present po-sition. He wished to catch the nightboat, he explained, for Calais, andwould leave money for the car's keepand repairs. Later he would wire anaddress and Instructions.

Without another word Christopherstarted the throbbing Scarlet Runneroff towards the station, where, afterhurried explanations to the station-maste- r,

he got Into telephonic com-

munication with the Daily Recorder,and received instructions to follow theescaping criminal across tlw Channelat the newspaper's expense, instantly,and at any cost.

There wg.s fl small tug which couldbo hired, and Christopher charteredher with little trouble or delay. Hereuched Calais before daylight, andwent straight to the railway stationto learn, If he could, whether the tnunbe sought had been among the passengers In the boat-trai- n for 1'uris. Butthere had been a crowd of Englishmenand Americans, several of whom an'swered well enough to the descriptiongiven, so fur as French porters andticket-tnker- s could remember.

Christopher bad brought the chauffeur across with him, thinking hemight be useful, and now he decided toleuve the man In Calais to look aboutfor his absconding master, and wireto him (Christopher) at the Hotel Con-

tinental, Paris, If Fortescue were seen.The first thing that Christopher did

on reaching his destination was todrive to the Gare da Nord and try tolearn whether a tall, slim, clean-shaven, brown-face- and brown-haire- d

Englishman of thirty-tw- dressed Inlight clothes, had arrived by the nighttrain m Cululs. Here he met shrugsof the hl.oulders and the answer heexpected.

The next move in the game was toseek the aid of a private detective,since the French police would onlyInterest themselves in such a questwhen applied to by their brothers onthe other side. That application wouldcome; but meanwhile Christopher in-

tended to leave no stone unturned;and It was not until he had done- allthat could be done by way of inter-views and telegrams that he went tobed at the Continental, where he hadtaken a small suite of rooms.

The rock had, Indeed, a vagueto the head of a giant wrap-

ped In a turban, neck and shouldersrising above the beach.

Christopher hud always been fas-

cinated by these rocks, the Turk'sHead especially, but to his mind itbore a likeness to the Sphinx.

"Oh, Sphinx, would that you'd tellme the secret of this beach !" he said,as he slowed down his car within sightof the gigantic bust. Then, lookingup, It seemed to him that the shapeof the mouth had changed. It lookedless wide than usual.

"There's something Inside It," he ex-

claimed, half aloud, and stopped Scarlet Runner.

He silenced the motor, Jumped outof the car, and glad that for the niO'merit he had this part of the beuchto himself, though he could see figuresufar off began to climb up the Turk'sshoulder.

He had not been mistaken. Withinwas a dark bundle, pushed far back,and while Christopher supported him..

trove was a motoring-coa- t of the mostupproved fashion, wrapped round aenp n combination between the capof a motorist aud a yachtsman's.

The name of the tailor had been cutout of the coat, and the lining of thecap had been torn away. If there wereany faith to be placed In circmnstantlal evidence, this coat and this capwere closely connected with the mystery of the blue motor car and the sea."Murder" was the thought in everybody's mind ; and the police begun totake an active Interest In the strangebusiness. Christopher's account of hisdiscovery in the Turk's mouth, on thesands near Tilton-on-Se- was madethe most of In the Dally Recorder'scolumns, and he was complimented bythe editor. Nevertheless, days passedwithout his being able to follow hisfirst sensational coup with another.

Public interest wus languishing, andChristopher was growing restless,when, one evening nearly a fortnightafter the finding of the derelict, hewas dining at a country inn on theLondon side of Rochester. It was latefor dinner, but he had not lunched,save for a sandwich, and was hungry.

A FEW MEATLESS SOUPS.

When soup Is served In the nienl nsa food rather than n preparation of

the stomach for heartyfoods Is should he prepared with that end In

view. Cream soups areboth nourishing and e

and may be usedfreely as a main dish.

Asparagus Soup. Inthese days of everybodywith n garden we shouldhave our own nspnrngusbed ; once started it will

he n source of profit for years. Taken bundle of asparagus, cut off thebends and put them nslde for a moredelicate dish. Cover the shoots, aftercutting In small pieces, with n quart ofwater and cook until the asparagus Is

tender. Rub through a colander nndadd this pulp with the liquor used In

cooking to a pint of milk. Cook to-

A dessert rich In eggs should beserved at a meatless meal, and an egg-les- s

dessert may likewise follow a din-

ner when meat Is served.

LET US PLAN.

The women of our country are di-

vided Into two classes today not theloyal and disloyal,for the great ma-

jority of our Amer-

ican women arekeenly loyal. Nowoman who reudsand thinks can lie

otherwise; but thetwo classes are thesmall number of

women who need not worry because ofexpense, and the great number whomust count every penny to make endsmeet.

The woman who must watch herpurse closely, that her family Is welland economically fed, Is she who muststudy food values, attend every lectureon foods where she may gain newIdeas or Inspiration. We are confused very often In our Judgments offood values by taking this or that foodand learning Its nutritive value, butforgetting that different foods act uponeach other In the digestive process,thus producing a more highly nutritivefood than either taken separately.There will always be something lack-

ing in substituting one food for an-

other. Rice and potatoes cannot takethe place of wheat, yet by adding a va-

riety of foods to our diet the healthof the body as well ns its growth maybe kept up with no wheat at all.

The housewife who must considercost, with food substitutes. Is thehousewife who needs to study, andover 80 per cent of our American wom-en are In that class.

When a butter substitute Is usedon the table see that the family hasplenty of egg yolk and green vege-tables to supply the growth determin-ant found In butter. It Is better, wherepossible, to serve butter to the grow-ing child and economize in some otherway.

We are apt to feel that eggs usedIn foods can be saved, thus cuttingdown expense ; but every egg added tocorn bread, griddle cakes, cake or pud-

ding adds Just that much more foodvalue to the dish.

Home for Mr. Woodpecker.A hollow log with a small hole made

about half way up from the bottom,with top made of a piece of bark anda small platform nailed Just below thehole, will serve very welt for. the homeof Mr. d Woodpecker orFlicker. ,

economical Other folks save theirsbecao.se they are stingy. CincinnatiTlmee-Sta- r.

Jylng for our sins.The grand climax of the year's les-

sons thus fas Is reached In this one.

If the significance of the crucifixion Isnot apprehended, all the lessons thusfar are meaningless. It Is not a mat-

ter of learning lessons taught by a

great teacher, or Imitating the exampleof a great and good man, but of ap-

prehending the vicarious atonementmade by the world's Redeemer. Christsaves, not by bis ethics, but by hisshed blood. His death was purposefuland absolutely voluntary.

I. Jesus Arraigned Before Pilate (vv.

MB).In the early morning, after the mock

trial before the high priest, they boundJesus and delivered him to Pilate.They act freely In this according tothe evil desires of their own hearts,yet he was delivered up by the deter-minate counsel and foreknowledge ofGod. The Jews would gladly havekilled him, but they had not the au-

thority to do so. They delivered himto the Gentile governor, thus involv-

ing the Jews and the Gentiles in thecrowning act of the world's sin. Pilatequestioned him without delay, for theyaccused him of pretending to be a king

a rebel. "Thou snyest," was his onlyreply. To the slanderous accusationsof the chief priests and elders he madeno reply, to the utter astonishment ofPilate. Pilate sought to release himbecause he was convinced of his Inno-

cence. After several unsuccessful ef-

forts to escape responslbllty the ex-

pedient of letting the people choosebetween Barabbas and Jesus was re-

sorted to. He no doubt thought thatthey would choose Jesus rather thanthe notorious Barabbas. Many todayare seeking to - escape responsibilitylike Pilate, and others are making theawful choice of Burabbas lnsteud ofChrist.

II. Jesus Crowned With Thorns (vv.).

Knowing that Jesus had been con-

demned for claiming to be Israel'sking, they In mockery crown him witha wreath of thorns, and salute him

"King of the Jews." Not only this, butthey smote him on the hend and spitupon him and went through a processof mock worship. The crown of thornstypifies the curse which he bore forman's sin.

III. Jesus Crucified (vv.1. Led away to the place of crucifix-

ion (vv. ).

At first they compelled him to bearhis own cross, but when physical weak-ness made this Impossible, they com-

pelled Simon the Cyrenlan to bear Itfor him. It Is beautiful to note thatthe son of this Cyrenlan who bore thecross of Jesus came to believe on him

(Romans 16:13). Because of thescourging and cruel Indignities heapedupon him, they actually were obligedto bear him to Golgotha. His face wasmarked by the thorns and cruel blows,so that there was "no form or comeli-ness" (Isa. 53:2). All this he enduredfor us. He drank this bitter cup to Itsvery dregs and refused to drink the"wine mingled with myrrh," whichwould have deadened his pain. Hewent all the way In hte sufferings.

2. Gambling for the clothing of theLord (vv. 24, 25).

Having nailed him to the cross theygambled for the seamless robe underthe very cross where he was dying, andIn their heartless cruelty they satdown to watch him die (Matt. 27 :30).

- 8. The superscription (v. 26).It was customary to place over the

victim on the Cross the name andcrime of the offender. Though Pilatedid this In mockery to vex the Jews,the title was absolutely true. He wasIndeed their King. They had longlooked for him, and now when he camethey crucified him. Though he wore acrown of thorns In derision, he willcome again wearing a crown of glory,and before him all shall bow.

4. Between two thieves (vv. 27, 28).Tills added to his shame. His Identi-

fication with two robbers was the ful-

fillment of the Scripture "Numberedwith the transgressors."

5. The dying Savior reviled (vv. ).

This reviling was engaged in byJie passers-by- , the chief priests andthe thieves who were crucified withhim. In this nameless agony andshame they taunted him by biddinghim come down from the cross, and derisively saying, "Ha saved others, him'elf he cannot save." They uncon

sciously uttered great truth. Hecould not save himself and others, so

be chose to die to save others. ,

6. Darkness upon the land (v. S3).This was at noonday. So shocking

was this crime that nature threwround the Son of God a shroud to hide

him from the gase of a Godless com-

pany.7. The cry from the Cross (vr. ).

What awful anguish when God laidthe world' sins upon bis beloved Son I

When the price was fully paid. Jesusdismissed his spirit. No one took hislife; he gave It up. Hit death was un-

like that of any other.8. The rent veil (v. 88).This symbolised the giving up of bis

life (Heb. 1030). ..,9. The centurion's confession (v. 39).10. The lingering group of women

SLACKERS OLD AND NEW

By CYRUS TOWN8END BRADYof the Vigilantes.

The pnpers chronicle duy by day thesteady advance of the British soldiersnorthward through Palestine. Theirlines extend from the Jordan to thesea and they are slowly but surelydriving the Turks before them In thislatest, greatest and most decisivecrusade.

If the followers of Mulioinet canmake any stand against the followersof Christ It will surely be In the plainof Esdraelon, one of the natural bat-

tlefields of the world. It Is singularhow some places lend themselves In-

evitably to conflict. The plain of Jez-ree- l,

to give It another name, is oneof these. It has been fought over con-

tinually since Thothines there defeatedthe Hlttites In the duwn of recordedhistory. Jew and Gentile; Canantiite,Assyrian, Babylonian, Scythlun, Per-

sian, Greek and Roman contested forIts mastery in the East; English,French, Italian, German, Arabian, andTurk from Godfrey and Rlt-hnr- andSttlndln to Napoleon drenched Its fer-

tile soil with blood In more moderntimes. May the forthcoming be thelast of Its muny battles, nnd Allenbythe last of the long line of crusaders.

One of the most decisive of the con-

flicts upon that plain occurred In 1296B. C when Barak, the Lightning, In-

spired by Deborah led ten thousandmen down the slopes of Mount TaborIn a successful night onfall nnd sur-

prise of the army of the oppressor,Jabln of Hnzor, under the commandof Slsera. The Hnzorltes were disas-

trously defeuted, driven in panic ter-ror down the narrow pass cut by theKlshon, then In full flood, and killedor drowned In large numbers.

Deborah made a great song aboutthe triumph. One stanza runs thisway:

"Curse ye Meroz, said the Angel ofthe Lord, curse ye bitterly the inhabi-tants thereof; because they came notto the help of the Lord, to the helpof the Lord against the mighty."

No one knows where Meroz lay. Noruined vestiges remain to Identify it.There Is no other mention of It In thepages of history. There Is no groundeven for simulation nbout It. Yet forover thirty-tw- o centuries it has beenpilloried In Its Infamy In that Immortalsong. Whatever Its prosperity and Itsworks, whatever Its hopes and achieve-ments, the loves and hates, the suc-

cesses or failures, of Its people theyare all forgotten In the blistering, withering condemnation of the singer. Itstands as a place accursed forever.Perhaps Its utter oblivion Is the result of the merited condemnation.

Shall there be written against ourcity, against our land, the curse ofMeroz? Shall we apply to these andto ourselves this slnckers' text? Orshall we come to the help of the Lordtoday, tomorrow and forever, In thegreat conflict now, and nt all times,being waged In Europe and everywhereagainst sin nnd the devil?

Curse ye Meroz? Non nobis, DnmlneNot unto us, Oh Lord !

CONQUEST

By HENR' CHAPELLE.of the Vigilantes.

The brood, beloved life of a peace-ful, home-keepin- f; nation, Is a prod-uct, not nn ordinance to be proclaim-ed. Why, then, do we tulk of negotiating pence, when it has been destroyedby violence? The forces that makepeace must first be reestablished.

One might ns well talk of peace toa man struggling In the hands of amurderous highwayman. One mightas well talk of a peace settlement withthe thief, to a man who has been robbed.

Wherever moral Issues are Involved,the Instinct of mankind demands aclean-cu- t conquest of evil.

Wherever there Is a definite attemptto Injure another person, the one as-

sailed knows he must win a decidedconquest to be safe.

Wherever there Is a man who livesJustly, he Is entitled to conquest overthose who attacked him.

Right, safety, and Justice all demand conquest over wrong, dangerand brutality. Let conquest be theword we use In speaking of the dis-

position of this war.

The PiousDevil

By KATB JORDANOf Th Vigilant!

Since that June day in 1914 when theassassination at Sarajevo gave theGerman kaiser, and the cormorantswho gutturaled with him over thecouncil tables, the opportunity for thecrime agulnst mankind for which theyhad been preparing for fifty years, wehave had him described, quoted, photographed by the highest men of ninnycountries men of honor, whose wordcunnot be questioned.

His vanity Is colossal something togibe at. Raymond Hitchcock describedIt when, as a reason for his havingmade the war, he explained that "thekaiser was all dressed up with no-

where to go." He is always "dressedup," either as an hussar, an admiral,as this, or that, and lately, even as aTurk. Yes, William Hohenzollern Is

"crazy about himself." He likes theway he "carries the duds."

With vanity 'there Is always arro-

gance; and he Is arrogant. His mustache ends alone are damning evi-

dence of that. The points point up athim. It Is evident, too, In his addiction to posing on a horse he can lookdown, and ride over anything on foot.

With vanity nnd arrogance, treach-

ery makes a good third. In his own

mind, the first two traits set him apart.a glorified unit, a law unto himself,What is, therefore, Just common de-

cency to other men has no meaning forone who Is law. Because of this hecan break his word, tie, cheat, steal,murder at every turn of the game ashe has done from the first moment.

These three traits could not existwithout breeding cruelty. The GermanInsensibility to suffering in otherslooms large In the Insheer savagery he has outdone themost barbarous Turk that ever lived.He has directed the slaughter of mil-

lions of men. And not only of his enemies make no mistuke of that I Hehas directed the slaughter of his ownpeasant and artisan armies with asuntrembllng a finger. It might bewell for the Germans In this countrywho secretly yearn over the father-land to think of this: The Germankaiser does not spare his people. Hemurders his own as a cat eats Its own

when the Idea seems good for aristo-cratic and Hohenzollern reasons.

Vanity, arrogance, treachery andcruelty I Surely these are enough ofhell to exist In one mun. But there isanother, and It reeks from the brewthis Is hypocrisy.

Tes, this man of lies and torntreaties, whose armies were directedto treat the betrayed Belgians as hy-enas treat the graves they pull topieces for bones; this killer of babes;this murderer of the wounded Is

pious 1 If one were to believe him,each of his horrors has hud God's au-

diting.During this last year he has grown

very old and white of hair. Some latephotographs of him thut have reachedthis country show do arrogance at all.No, he is now markedly sanctimoniousand very, very sad. No wonder. He

and God have not had the easytime that he expected. '

You see he had the restaurant pick-

ed out and the date set for his tri-

umphal dinner in Paris around Christ-

mas, 1914. There was reason for hisfeeling so sure. When he startedacross Belgium, killing and burningall in his path, he was most hideouslyprepared for the fight he knew hewould meet in France.

Perhaps it is not generally knownJust how prepared he was in a one-

sided infamy. From sure authorityI have recently read of the tons ofbarbed wire, 15 years In the making,that went with those first troops ;

that every German soldier as he tookhis first step over the Belgian frontierwith Paris as his goal, had In his kittubes of liquid gas and a perfectlyconstructed gas mask, also years andyears in the making. When the kaiserruminated on the liquid gas that wasto come as a surprise upon his de-

fenseless enemies while bis own menwere supermen, Immune, Is It anywonder that the points of his mustachewaggled In a sweet, slow smlleT Anywonder that he saw himself In Parisby Christmas, eating sauerkraut prepared by a French chef 1

Well, In spite of all that he hasbrought to make solid his loathsomeambition, he is not In Paris. He is inBerlin, or near It and glad to staythere.

He hadn't counted on England andEngland's navy bottled np bis ports;her millions poured over the channelafter him.

He was sure .Italy would hold tofeeble sort of promise to back him npIf he were good. Italy thought himrotten bad ; and so she went after him.

He wasn't afraid of America. Amer-ica was too busy making money, toohappy in selfishness, and luxury, andIndolence. America would never fightShe was like an overfed cat asleep Inthe sun. But from the time he sankthe Lusltanla America has really beenat war with him In spirit, as she Isnow In reality. When she did wake npshe put her head under the pomp andthe cold water made her vision soclear she. could see nothing but thekaiser tad gun.

Lovely Extravagances

June weddings make a bright paren-thesis In the grave story of war times.Just as many lovely brides grace Justas many beautiful bridal processionsthis June us In Junes gone by nndthe Joy they radiate Is more thnn everwelcome. No one expects the bride tocurtail ony of her privileges on hergreat dny. It comes but once in a life-

time and she Is entitled to make themost of It. The pomp nnd circumstnnceof war is not to be compared to It.

Society countenances the pretty ex-

travagances of the wedding pageantond styles piny Into the hnnds of thosewho plnn them. Malines nnd georgettecrepe make the more than ever pic-

turesque hots for bridesmaids. Someof these have veils of malines extend-ed Into scarfs that swathe the throatand partly cover the face. Specialthought has been bestowed on the ma-

tron of honor the most dignified mil-

linery featuring her position. In aprocession where there were twoflower girls, small soft hats of narrow,val lace, trimmed with little rose budswere allowed them. In this companythe matron of honor wore a wtde--b

rimmed hat of sand-colore- d malinesand pale-gol-d lace, with a full shortmantle of mnllnes to match with collarof gold lace. The bridesmaids rejoicedIn wide hats of pink georgette crepewith big, soft poppies made of thesame material, set about the crown.

For brides who decide against theconventional white satin and long veil,

pretty bats of white malines and smallwhite flowers have been provided with

Shades Are Interesting.It is Interesting to note the different

effects materials have in the variousshades. Brilliant, clear colors are goodlooking for dull materials. By a dullmaterial Is meant one which does notshow up In the high lights. Reds andbright blues look well, for instance, increpe or homespun, nnd have a total-ly different effect when matched ex-

actly In the same shade of sntln orvelvet. Quite the reverse Is the casewith browns or blacks, for satin orvelvet is almost a necessity to keepthese colors from looking dull andsomber.

DO YOU KNOW

That you should never judge awoman and cigars by their wrappers.

The girl with the wide smile andthe ever ready greeting.

The man who tried to make! acertain girl popular, but failed.

The woman with a sweet voiceand dreemy eyes who is so popular.

That perhaps the best way tokill a falsehood is to let it lie.

The man who beat it when he en-

tered and saw four feminine satel-lites in the same place recently.

The young married matron who isa trump and has an answer for everyone.

The man who declares he is nota woman chaser.

The brunette who costantly sighsfor other sunny climes.

That it is impossible for a womanto preserve a secret so it will keep.

That it is as risky to praise awoman's husband to her fatce as itis to critize him.

The blond with the kitten smilewho thinks she is immensely attra-tiv- c.

Thel fellow who frequenly findshimself in a very perptexing situa-tion.

The woman who can't resist gos-siping even in church.

That being popular consists lar-

gely in remembering) what to for-

get.The party who is tied to more

than one woman's apron strings.The man who looks as though he

had been dead and buried and re-

cently resurrected.The gay married woman who is

most always minus her wedding ring.That it is one thing to put a man

in his place, but quite another mat-ter to make him fit.

The woman who delights tellingwho her gentlemen callers are.

That you may get all that is com-

With the American Army inFrance, (Friday) May 31 (By theAssociated Press) A Russian pris-oner who recently returned fromGermany, has made a statement atMoscow, which is now availablehere, to the effect that he sawAmerican prisoners of war in a campat Tirchel, west Prussia and thatthey asked him to let it be knownthat they were being treated brutal-ly. The prisoners said they' werehungry and penniless.

Stripped of Clothing;When the Americans arrived at

the camp according to this accountthe Germans removed all their clo-

thes. They were particularly anx-ious to have the American's shoes.They told the prisoners they shouldnot wear expensive clothing andshoes while working and that theirproperty would be taken care of un-

til their return to America. The Rus-

sian said however , that everyoneknows what that means.

Bread in Morning OnlyA counsul, the Russian was not

sure whether he was a Swiss or aSpaniard, visited the camp. Com-

plaint was made to him hy the Amer-icans and their clothes were return-ed, but as the counsul seldom visitedthe camp the Germans had oppor-tunity to practice many injustices,Thje Russian said that eight Ameri-cans who were captured severalmonths ago reached the camp atmidday and being very hungry ask-

ed for bread. They were told breadwas distributed only in the morn-ing. They were placed in a hut withRussians after being forced in asquare where Germans were givenan opportunity to insult them. Thehuts in which the Americans are liv-

ing the Russian said, are damp, cold,and unfit for habitation.

Treatment Result in IllnessSome Americans became ill. Two

of them were in a hospital and hadan opportunity to talk with the Rus-

sian and it was through them thathe had obtained the information onwhich his statement was based.

AMERICAN WOMAN SOLDIERRELATES HUN ATROCITIES

(New York Tribune)German atrocities were described

yesterday to the Advertising Club ofNew York at its luncheon, at 47East Twenty-fift- h street, by SergeantRuth Farnuin, an American woman.

Sergeant Parnum has been called"the first American woman soldier,"being in the actual service of theSerbian army by virtue of the rankof sergeant conferred upon her bya grateful government. The threedecorations she wears are in recog-nition of distinguished service in re-lief work amony the Serbians, One,the badge of St. Sova, the highesthonor conferred by Serbia, was pin-ned upon her by Prince Alexander.

"Condition's there are worse y

than ever before," she said. Howterrible that must be is indicatedby some of the things she saw be-tween the time answered the callfor relief after the German invasionand the time she left a year ago.

Nothing to Deaden Pain"I have held men in my arms

while the surgeons operated on themwithout anaesthetics or anything todeaden the pain," she said. "I haveseen boys hold up their mutilatedlegs to be sawed off with nothingmore than a cigarette to lessen theirsuffering.

"I have seen men with tonguestorn off, and eyes gouged out andears and noses cut off by the invad-ing Germans. I have seen dozensof Serbian children crucified on theirparents' doors.

"The Germans in entering Serbiantowns shot down children playing inthe streets. And the Serbians, lestthe world would not believe reportsof such atrocities, let them lie inthe streets until photographs hadbeen taken of the dead. This evi-dence is available to disprove Ger-man denials.

"Moreover, since the war began,thirty thousand Serbian girls, rang-ing in ages up from ten years, havebeen sold in slavery to the Turksby the Christian Germans.

Foe Left Disease in Wake"And when the Germans retreat-

ed they left behind them the soldierssuffering from typhus and otherdiseases, knowing that their disease,would spread and wipe out wholevillages.

"But, although the Serbians finallyhave been overwhelmed and theircountry devastated, the Serbiansmade their country a solid body offlesh to delay the German invadersuntil the British could get around tothe East. Thus they unwittinglyperformed a genuine service forAmerica, because they helped theAllied cause and thwarted the Ger-man plans of attack."

British opponents of Lloyd Georgeargued that a French Generalissimomight sacrifice British troops. Thelast stand of the French regimentsent to hold Mt. Kemmel is the an-swerSpringfield Republican.

CIGANTIC MAN-TRA- P

IS FURTHER EVIDENCEOF GERMAN "KULTUR"

Paris, June 2. The latest Germanbarbarity consists of a man trap sim-

ilar to a bear trap, discovered in NoMan's Land by Corporal LeonardoManser and Sergeant Victor L. Vau-pe- l.

United States engineers.Corporal Manser, after bringing

the trophy to the trenches, told howhe came to discover it. He said.

"We were in the trenches on thenight of May 24, when Sergeant Vau-p- el

and myself decided to go on ascouting party.w We crept carefullyover the top, making out way throughthe barbed wire entanglements andinto one shell hole after another.

"After we gpt half way acrossNo Man's Land, my cane was jerkedfrom my hand. Advancing a fewsteps, I stumbled on the trap, whichhad been released by the pressure ofthe cane. On examination I foundthe trap set to catch scouts, andchained to stakes in the ground. Iloosened the chain and brought thetrap to our trenches.

"The contrivance is three feet longand has jaws eighteen inches widewith teeth two inches long. It is de-

signed to give the victim great painand make him call for help. Thisattracts his comrades, who becometargets for a German machine gun'sfusillade which results in the anni-hilation of the entire party."

The trap is in the Paris V. M. CA and will be shipped to America asa trophy.
