Wfiea it was dusk Tama descended
into the valley and saw great stretch
of brave men sleeping the last long
sleep Of death. As she stood, the moon
light shining upon the grim battlefield
she seemed TO hear soft, clear trumpet
call Low it sounded al first, and then
gradually grew in volume; but it was all

that the spirits of the Japanese army
silently, slowly arose from all the still
figures upon the battlefield. White SOL
der souls came down from Nanshan hill.
and Tama saw that her lord was among
them. Again and again the trumpet call
sounded, and marching in perfect line
stepped that great army of soldier souls
far out into the night, into the Great
Meads where those who died for their
country shall make merry at last.
That was Tama's dream, and fey
days later news was brought to her that
her husbands name was upon the death
roll, and that he had died even as Tama
had dreamed. And when Tama asked
if the army had heard the phantom trum-
pet call and seen the soldier souls march
across the battlefield the officials looked
at her pitifully and said that they had
heard no such news
Two months passed away when tidings
were brought to Osaka to the effect that
even now the glorious fourth division
was crossing the sea.
Tama and Mono, dressed in the white
robes of mourning, watched the army
pass. Suddenly, as line after line came
by, Tama gave cry of joy
Look Momoi There is father!'
Mono leaned out of the window

When the evening came, Tama and
Mono sat in the garden. Tama suddenly
felt conscious of dear presence other
than her child. She looked up and there,
standing close beside her, was her lord
in full uniform and accoutrements.
"Yorimasal" exclaimed Tama excited
ly. oh, my dear lord! My dream was
untrue, the dispatches were untrue, too.
You have come back to your little one

make jewels in the air. Speak to me,

But Yorimasa did not speak. Through
the stiffness of the night Tama heard
once more the phantom trumpet call

played across the face of Yorimasa-and

A French inventor has arrived in New
York with an automobile which can
take to the water like a duck, in emer-
gencies. In other words, it can serve as
motor boat if its owner cares to use
rivers in the course of his travels. This
decided novelty suggests the possibility
of inventing an automobile that can sail
in emergencies, when tires burst and
cause them to leap into the ARA very
common occurrence which instead of
having disastrous ending might thus
be made the preliminary of an aerial
voyage.

probably that he was insane when he

A Tightening of Money.

A financial crisis, similar to that
through which the country is success
fully passing. only goes to show how
easily and quickly people may become
frightened, and how tight time money
may become without any perceptible
warning.
The new rule recently adopted by the
local clearing house to allow but very
limited Withdrawals of funds on de-
posit has, in a number of cases, worked
hardship on many who need their
money for investment, and who had
contemplated the placing of it where
1t would yield them a good rate of in
terest. Now, we have a proposition
for just such people. If they have $500
or $1,000, or double or treble that
amount, which they would like to in
vest, we can show them where they
can place it Immediately so that their
money will earn 10 per cent on their
investment. We have recently built
100000 worth of fine houses on Ninth
avenue. on the line of the new street
car extension. and they are for sale
for cash or on long time payments. We
will accept a mans check for the
amount he wishes TO invest, and which
he cannot withdraw at one time from
his bank, and can show him how the
interest on the money, together with
the increasing valuation, will equal 10
per cent.
The houses are thoroughly modern in
every respect, well built, perfect in
location, and afford an opportunity for
investment rarely offered.

you can see the houses by applying at

IDAHO LAND FRAUDS.
Occur d'AIene Capitalist, William
Dollar, in the Tolls.

Spokane. Wash, Nov. A special
from Moscow, Ida, to the Spokesman
Review says the jury to try William Dol
lar, the Occur d'Alene capitalist, and Ar
thur F. Swisher, of the same place, for
land frauds, was secured in the federal
court here this afternoon. The indictment,
which was read to the jury, alleges that
the defendants procured various persons
to take up land claims. and that the
money for the filings was furnished by
Dollar and his associates. 1t is alleged
that among those who took up land at
the instance of Dollar and his associates
were a number of immoral women. 1t is
said that Elma Peterson. one of these
women, was at the time the paramour OF
Preston, nephew of Dollar. He is said
to have married another woman and the
Peterson woman is said to have sued for
breach of promise. She failed to secure
damages and is said to have told of Pres
toms part in the land fraud for revenge.
Preston has pleaded guilty. Dollar has
declared that his nephew has threatened
to involve him in land frauds. He denies
collision in the case.
