his own past and knowing that l knew
something of it, too. he dared not be-

matter had made me unwilling to keep
the boy in my house, but at first I

him, and had him with me. Then one
night the house was broken into and
two men were discovered in the room

We'll, Mr.. Knapp was very angry,

told me that the creature cried and

To revive an old style of building,

children were strung along the upper
end Of the Enclosure breathlessly watch

face had dropped the mask of listless-

an extra polish on its arms. The
grass was too short for a war pony.
Active duty had not been expected
within the month, yet the time Of
dreary waiting was up at last. for here
within striking distance were the hos

The warriors in the stockade knew

Verdict Pronounced Against it-Sen
tenced 70 Be Burned.


Even in Russia II does not OFTEN
happen that a charge Is brought
against a book and not against the
author or publishers thereof. Yet a
case of this kind was brought before
the Warsaw courts recently.
The charge was laid against a work
by a certain Gustave Baumfeld as be-
ing Of a nature likely to arouse Its
readers to revolutionary actions" The
dock was perfectly empty and evil
dence was given by the police who
had confiscated the book. The YER
dict was pronounced against the book
and amounted to the order that 1t
should be burned.
The explanation of this peculiar In
cident is that the book in question
was discovered by the police while
still in the printers hands, and that
as 1t had not yet been published Meth
er the author nor the publisher was
held responsible for it's revolutionary
tendencies. All the blame was laid
on the book, of which every sheet has
now been destroyed.
