Charles Koch Friday and drove him
from the works in disgrace. Koch has
had steady work at good wages for Is
years. He owns his own home. A few
days ago he went to the headquarters
of the relief committee and took home
all the groceries he could carry. His
fellow employees heard of it and ap-
pointed committee. The committee
had his forge at the shop decorated
with a -four sack full of coke dust,
empty fruit cans and other forms Of
mockery.
Koch laid the things aside and pre-
pared to go to work. This was too
much for the men, and they opened
fire with eggs. He was despatched
from head to foot, but stood his ground,
cursing the men. This exasperated
them beyond endurance and some one
cried: Get rope!" Then Koch fed.

route of the two between the Punjab and

of the roads and the abundance of Water,
fuel, grazing and supplies procurable in
it. The inhabitants of the valley are all
Shah NIohammedans, and are usually
more friendly towards the Anglo-Indians
than they are to the Caboolese, who are
Sunni Mohammedans, and are regarded
by the Kurramese as oppressors. The
Kurram Valley, by reason of its location,
turns the Khy Der Pass and stretches al
