damuses and what not" said Mayor
Johnson the other day.
There was, you know, an old lady
who rented a furnished villa for the
summer, and with the villa a large
dog also went.
In the sitting room of the villa
there was a comfortable armchair.
The old lady liked this chair better
than any other in the house. She
always made for it the first thing.
But, alas, she nearly always
found the chair occupied by the large
dog.
Being afraid of the dog, she
never dared bid it harshly to get out
of the chair, as she feared that it
might bite her, but instead she would
go to the window and call cats
Then the dog would rush to the
window and bark, and the old lady
would slip into the vacant chair
quietly.
/ "One day the dog entered the
room and found the old lady in pos
session of the chair. He strolled
over to the window and, looking out,
appeared much excited and set up a
tremendous barking.
THE old lady arose and hastened
to the window to see what was the
matter, and the dog quietly climbed
into the chair. democratic Tele-

MAXIM FORESEES
AERIAL WAR SHIPS.
Tells Of Their Possibilities a
Balloon Dinner" Of the Al.
dine Association.

Prediction that the practical attain
ment OF aerial navigation now Is truly
at hand was coupled with enthusiastic
and reverent tribute to the worlds
great inventors by the speakers at the
balloon dinner" given by the MEM
bers of the Aldine Association, In
their club rooms, No. Ill Fifth ave-
nue.. Professor Alexander Graham
Bell, Hudson Maxim, the inventor Of
smokeless powder, and Major George
o. Squier, u. S. A., who has had d.
rection of many of the Governments
aeronautic experiments, were among
the men who proclaimed the day Of
successful aerial navigation at hand.
AS showing what has been accom-
plished thus far in America and
abroad, Augustus Post, one Of the
practical pioneers of the Aero Club
of America, delivered an address,
which was illustrated by moving pic
lures showing the Vile de Paris in
flight and Henry Farman making the
recent dash in his aeroplane. which
attracted attention around the world.
"The flying machine" said Mr..
Maxim, "is no longer confined to the
realm Of fancy or Imagination, but
the conquest of the air is already far
advanced, and the era Of practical util-
ity is near. In the not distant future
we shall have our automobiles of the
air, and in the wars of the future we
shall have our aerial battleships, our
cruisers, our torpedo boats and tor
pedo boat destroyers. But they will
be airy, frail and fairy craft, indeed.
compared with the grim steel mon
sters of the sea.
Although the value of the flying
machine in future wars will be mainly
as a scouting craft, still its value
and Importance for that service alone
is hard to overestimate, for the flying
machine videttes will be at once the
future.
Possibly, too, we shall have our
torpedo hawk, taloned with dynamite.
which will swoop down out of the
sky. Although flying machines could
not be expected successfully to at
tack battleships, coast Notifications
or large cities and work much damage
with high explosives, still they might
attack torpedoes and small torpedo
craft with aerial bombs planted and
exploded beside them under water.
"The more highly scientific war
enginery becomes, more and more
will home and country be defended
by machinery and less by blood.
Fewer and fewer men will be obliged
to engage in the trade of war, and
more and more will be able to devote
themselves to personal pursuits.
Less and less will war be the arbiter
of nations. The aerial navy will be
the great bulwark of peace and very
great step toward the permanence of
peace. And as mercy is largely q
product of civilization, future con-
quest will be more and more tenn
pered with mercy until mercy shall
have conquered war. Altruism Is
born of love, but international love-
making must be done with armor

whats wrong?" asked Ratinoff
quickly.
There is only one fresh horse.
The other one is completely used up
on one leg"
"Can he not go on It at all?"
mo, he can't even stand on It,"
There is only one thing to do"
said Ratinoff-cool in his despera-
tion-"bring out the good horse, and
put him in place of this night one,
and we'll do the best we can"
But it will kill that off horse to
take him on" was the sulky reply.
1T can't be helped; bring out that
horse"
The cool determination of the Cos
sack won, and they were soon press
ing on. The rain came down in tor
rents. The road was often flooded.
After a struggle of hours they
came in sight Of the river. The driver
gasped, and went pale.
"The bridget" he exclaimed. "The
bridge will be gone. The poor old
thing could never stand that. See
the torrent of water!"
ITS there still! Yes, it's rhere!"
shouted Ratinoff, ss they rounded the
bend.
THE frame is still there. but the
planks will be gone, for the water
is over 1t. We can go no farther"
Nonsense, man, don't say that;
we must go on. There might not be
one plank gone"
whats that down there?" and
the driver pointed below.

"Well, that's only one. There
might not be another gone"
well, I'm not going to try to
find out, for even if there we're planks
enough to cross on, we couldn't do
it. The frame wouldn't stand the
strain. The water alone won't let
it live two minutes longer"
Instantly the truth of this state
ment flashed upon the mind of Rat
inoff
Say" he whispered, do you
think / could make it on foot?"
1T might just be possible, but only
fool would try it. There is only
one chance in hundred"
Ratinoff sprang from the carriage,
and strapped the leather wallet
around his neck.
Keep to the edge, and always
keep hold of the framework" shout
ed the driver. Goodbye, and God
preserve you"
Ratinoff ran forward with one arm
around the side rail. The water was

ire. Presently his foot dropped into
an opening, but his arm around the
railing saved him. For almost two
rods there was scarcely a plank
intact, and he worked slowly forward
on the framework. The water was
rising every moment. He feared
the crash would overtake him, and
he hurried forward. The water was
above his waist. He was within two
| rods of the end when he heard a
crash behind, and felt a swinging
motion begin. He thought of letting
go the frame and making wild dash,
but he dared not He struggled on,
his eye ever on the end of the frame

quickly settling, and his eyes were
full of spray, but yet he clearly saw
the quivering timbers wrench them

shore. He jumped as best he could
in the boisterous waters. He struck
bottom in water which almost
reached to his shoulders. He stag
gered up the bank and reached the
solid ground, only to find himself
utterly exhausted An icy numb
ness was stealing over him. He saw

tage down by the river. Four men
were secured.
Have we the right one?" demand
ed the captain.
Yes, that is he on your left"
came the answer from the group of
Cossacks.
The old man knew the voice, and
turned his eyes in blank amazement
upon the man he had rescued two
weeks before. In speechless con-
tempt he stared for some moments,
then he quietly turned and kissed
his wife and little ones goodbye.
And he knew it was for the last time.
After some weeks there was an
other big batch of criminals being
transported to Siberia, that ghastly
graveyard of the living dead, and the
mother and her little ones in the lone
ly cottage by the river clung wildly to
one another, and mingled their tears
of bitterness and loss, when they
looked over the list of names.
Weeks passed. And another item
of news found its way to the desolate
little cottage.
There had been great wedding
in Peterhof. Ratinoff, a Cossack of
the Imperial Bodyguard, was the
bridegroom. Because of recent spe-
cial services rendered in the cause of
the fatherland, the Government
thought fit to donate a substantial
wedding gift--it consisted of purse
of twenty-five roubles and pension
for life
The lonely mother listened in ST.
lence, and her face was hard and
drawn as she gazed on the wasted
forms of her, little ones, whose faces
were pinched with hunger and blue
with the cold
At last she broke the gnawing ST.
| lence, but her words were few and
very, very bitter. She said only:
and Judas got only twenty-five GEL
ders."

based on facts-hard, cold facts.
And yet Russia wonders why her

tented with the Government. Poor

When at last his eyes opened he
stared in a dazed sort of way at the
ceiling of the rough cottage. and at
the peasants who were bending over
him. In moment he remembered
and nervously felt for the wallet
which was lying by his side.
tits all right, sir" remarked the
owner of the cottage. I'VE haven't
touched 1t at all"
The Cossack, thus assured, heaved
a sigh of relief, and soon dropped
off to sleep.
When next he awoke 1t was with
the sound of voices in his ears. He
listened without so much as opening
his eyes or moving a muscle.
"Yes, but 1t must be clearly UNDER
stood from the first that there is to
be no meddling with means which are
violent or unlawful. Grievances
against our government we certainly
have, and l am quite willing that we
shall meet here in neighborly way
to talk about them. but 1t must be
distinctly understood that no hothead
will be allowed to speak rash and
violent words which can only result
in harm"
Ratinoff knew It to be the voice of
his host.
That's right. That's right" was
the murmured assent.
What luck! This is your chance,
your chance" whispered the evil one
in Ratinoff's ear. you know they
will literally reward special service
Your commission is very ordinary

But all the man in him rebelled

to whom he owed his life and the
safety of his papers? Never!
But it's only business" came the
evil whisper. Every man must look
out for himself You'll never be able
to claim her IL you don't do some

exactly traitors in heart yet, but they
soon will be If they hold these meet
