the pain Immediately returned.
Weeks was yesterday placed be-

he did not have pleurisy.
Said Bob Meismer, Weeks man

of winning. When the pain return

fracture came from a blow received

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. 21.-
Naval officers are much interested
in the possibilities of results from
the use of smokeless fuel. I'm.
portance attaches to the use of
such an article on account of its
contribution to the secrecy of naval
operations by means of invisibility.
1t has become an important &C
qulrement that there shall be as
little attention as possible attract
ed to naval ships in operation in
time of war, and 1t is for this rea-
son that the deadest kind of paint
Is used on the hulls of the vessels,
and that smokeless powder has
been adopted for the ammunition.
With the dense smoke which pours
from some of the tunnels 1t is easy
enough to locate ship under way,
In addition to which. smoke of this
kind. when ships are in feet for
nation. obscures signals displayed
and might lead to confusion, II not
disaster. -.

THOMAS f. WATSON in his MAGA.
ZINE FOR july

The historianthe orator, the painter,
have been eager in the duty of blakon
ing the deeds Of our pioneers mission
aries. lawmakers and soldiers. The
names OF these heroes live, and deserve
to live, in letters of light upon the
records Of our country But to our pio
neer farmers, justice has never been
done. Theirs was a combat calling
for every soldierly trait of John Smith
and Miles Standish. The patient cour.
age which swung axe in the depths of
primeyal woods was no less heroic than
the bravery which made the musket
conquer. The toll of the warriors
march was slight by comparison with
with the homely but exhaustng work
OF preparing the soil for the sowing of
seed The arrows of the men we're not
more deadly to the soldier than were
the feyers which rose from the swamps
and pulled down the settler as he
struggled to open out his farm.
In the South, in the East, in the
West, the story of the pioneer plow.
man of America is one of dauntless
courage, Of quiet heroism. He found
the new world, wilderness aud he has
we'll nigh made it a garden. His axe,
his spade, his ioe, his plow, his muscle
his brain, his very heartand soul have.
all been enlisted in the work; and never
once have his lips uttered the craven's
plea for "Protection." Never once has
he gone to he doors of legislation beg
epecial favors. Never once has e
tied to government and people for tn
purpos ofsecuring any selfish advantage
at the expense of his fellowman.
No. He has not only not demanded
OF the government either Protection or
Privilege. but he has submitted yes,
for one hundred years he has submitted
to be robbed of portion of his annual
produce in the form of Trusts, dominates
the Republic and secures the lions share
of all the wealth created in every field
of industry.
Like many another pioneer of the
American wilderness, Andrew Jackson
found the task too hard He died under
the strain. The impression which his
famous son had as to the immediate
cause of his death was that he ruptured
a blood vessel on the handIin of heavy
log.
The body of the hero who had fallen
in the fight for his wife and little ones
the fight to make home for them in
the wilderness was buried in the
graveyard of the Waxhaw Settlement
church. In after years when efforts
were made to identify the spot. 1t
could not be done.
