THE FIFTH STRING.

(By William J. Hampton, with Apollo
giles to NJ. John Philip Sousa's Fifth
String.")
Diotti OWNED that something beyond
sympathy for the old tomcat's death
racked Mildred WaIlace's pure young
soul. He was well aware that she knew
the relation existing between the dead
cat and fiddle string. AS she was
merely musician and not a real artist,
he felt that she must fook upon it as
a desecration over which the cat had
no control, and, in that far, unjust to
the deceased.
He went toward her and lovingly TAX
ing her hands bent low and pressed his
lips to them. They were as cold as

INJURED to himself, wondering, half in
doubt, half in fear, what she could
possibly haye up her sleeve. But he
did not comment aloud upon the glacier
grip she might give and braced UP.
Darling" he said, something has
made you unhappy. What is it?"
Tell me, Angelo, and truly, is your
violin Ike other viOlins2"
This unexpected question came so
suddenly he could not control his agi-

frigid formaity, for he was hurt to the

Young Man and His Best Girl

The young man and his best girl had
seats at a football game and they enter
tanned many people. 1t was evident that
she was not college girl foi she knew
nothing Of the game.
Attention was first attracted to them
by the young man, who was speaking in
a discouraged tone, as follows.

There were many people laughing by
this time, but the young man could only

Gathered I'm a rubber blanket on the

and dismembered remains of a victim
OF Saturday nights head-on collision
on the Pere Marquette railway near
East Paris. SO terribly dishgured Is
this last victim found at the scene OF
the wreck that IN all probability It's
identity will never be positively eff
fected.

belief that this body Is that OF wo-
man. but the railway authorities say

passenger could. In their opinion, have
been thrown where this body was
found. II was the unmIstakable odor
of burned flesh that led the wrecking
crew TO a realization Of the fact that
another body lay under the wrecked
engines where Engineer Stoddard and
Fireman Burns of the east-bound train
were found. When they had uncovered
the remains of this additional victim
they found only fragments Of a human
form. There were no arms or legs
only fragments OF the skull and large
bones. some teeth and most Of the in
ternal organs intact, but they were lit
orally roasted.
Many acts Of vandalism we're com
mitted at the wreck. and ghOuls de-
spoiled he bodies OF the dead. Moth
ing of value was found upon the bodies
Of the victims, although many were
known to have had from $50 to $500
before the disaster. Watches and all
pieces OF jewelry were also stolen.

Russia is very much exercised over
her contention with Japan as she
now finds, or thinks she has found,
shat England 10 supporting Japan IN
the controversy. The leading papers
OF the two countries are carrying on
a war of words, and it is stated that
the Russian press is more incensed
against England for it's support oil
Japan than stJapan itself. It's also
pointed out that England has more
men who have been under fire and
more vessels afoat than at any pre-
vious time for years, and this it is
thought adds to the gravity OF the
situation, and it is also asserted that
large number OF these vessels are
making their way TO the East. There
seems, therefore, nothing for Russia
70 do but to call a halt in her greed
for territory.
