While this was passing on Stafnitzs
side Sophy and her party were working
quietly and cautiously down the course
of the ditch. Under the shelter OF Its
bank they had been able 70 hold
brief and hurried consultation. What
they feared was that Stafnltz would
make a dash for the barges. Their IRE
might drop half his men. but the sur
vlvors when once on board-and the
barges were drawn up 10 the edge of
the stream-would still be ms numerous
as themselves and would command the
course of the ditch. which was at pres
emit their great resource and protection.
But II they could get on board before
the enemy they believed they could
hold their own. The decks were COW
cred with impedlmenta OF one sort or
another. which would afford them COW
or. while any party which tried to
board must expose Itself 70 fire TO a
serious and probably fatal extent
So they worked down the ditch, ex.
cept two of them. Little as they could

IN his newspaper work. Apropos his
newspaper work, Mr.. Cobb covered
the Hams trial for the World and did
fine piece OF work. One of his first
big Jobs" IN New York was his COW
ering the first Thaw trial, and Il
stamped him as a ''star" man. A
magazine, commenting ON IL at the
time, said "of the thousands of SEN
fences ne wrote he did not construct
one that was sloveuly."
Hotel clerks as a rule have a great
dread of something during their ca
reer as clerk, finding some person in
one Of the rooms, who had committed
suicide or had been killed It hap
pened just a few days ago that a
telephone message came for a travel
ing man at one of the local hotels.
Looking to see IL the man called for
was in, the clerk noticed that the key
to his room was gone and II Is not
customary for the keys to be out OF
the Office unless It's possessor Is at hs
or her room, so the clerk called the
room occupied by this particular gen.
tleman. No one answered the phone
so a bell boy was sent 20 the room
and he reported to the Office that the
door was locked on the inside. Tie
clerks curiosity was aroused and he
went TO the room. He pounded on the
10 oil a
but no one responded. The clerk be
came alarmed by this time. He final
ly managed. by going through a door
into a closet and then into a bath
room, to get to a door leading direct
ly into the room. The clerk seized
the knob and found The door unlocked
He started TO open the door and go
IN, but the door opened only about
three inches and then hit something
with a thud. The clerk put his
shoulder to the door and pushed with
an his might. The door began 10
give and the clerk could observe the
body against II. sliding slowly and
heavily over the floor. BY this time
the clerk was certain the body was
that of the man. WheE he opened
the door far enough to get his head
in, he saw the man for whom he was
looking and for whom there was q
telephone CALI stripped CT all his
clothing and stretched out on the
floor. The first thought of the clerk
was to call a physician The physic'
ian. after a thorough examination
and a little time brought the man on
the floor ito" When the physician
asked him II he had taken anything

The little two-year-old son OF a
prominent Paducah clergyman re-
Gently sounded his own emancipa-
ton proclamation In no uncertain
fashion. He raised up TO greet his
father, who had just arrived home on
the early morning train and sleepi,y
announced: ''Farder, amt a baby!
/ can whistle. | can spell my name
and | don't believe in Sanity Claus
So there" and he went back to shum-
berland with a smile Of contented
bliss. leaving his father to recover
from HIS establishment as best he
could.
