and then it came out that nightly
after the slant eyed pupils had
left the school of the white man
where they spent the day wrestling
with problems new and strange,
they went to Prof. Tsao's school
and were taught the sayings of the
great Chinese sage Confucius, writ
ten 2600 years ago.
And the school has been sue
cess from the day it was started.
No distinctions are made. A white
child may attend. Here are some
of the things they teach in Tsao's
Chinese school, the only one of its
kind in tbs country:

as a rumor, it was enough to stir up
the fight fans in all parts of the
country. United Press offices were
besieged with inquiries and news
papers throughout the east received
thousands of telephone calls from
sport followers who asked about
Jeffries' reported accident.
When the United Press authori-
tatively denied that any accident
had occurred. and reported that
Jeffries' arms were in good condi-
ton and that he felt like using
them on the man who started the
story there was general relief
throughout the sporting world.

THE DAY in
THE MARKETS

All the interest was centered in
Missoula and the bulls had apparent
ly started a campaign TO put the price
up. Heavy buying was started early
in the session ard while the price did
not advance to amount to anything
the heavy decline that was apparent
was stopped and the tide turned.
Good inerests seem to be taking on
the stock in good sized blocks and
there will be another short interest
built up before long if this buying
continues.

market was generally easier Some

rounded with border of ferns, vines
and pond lilies. In the water two
sail boats and a toy launch fioated as
natural as life, manned by cute doll
sailors. To add to the festive appear
ance there was huge Japanese UNI
brella over the table, from which
small lanterns hung from every rib:
they were lighted by electric lamps.
At each place there was tiny canoe,
with a very small Jap lantern at the
bow. The name OF the guest was let
tered on the side. Wee paddles paint
ed white were stacked bayonet fashion
at each place and held small pail Of
bon-bons. The name flag of the boats
were around the room with the Union
Jack and the Stars and Stripes. The
guests were asked to come in flannels
and It was just the jolliest kind of a
time. The menu was as nautical as the
market could afford. beginning with
oysters, fish. lobster. salad. etc.

Rushing Mountain Torrent Slienced
In q Few Hours by the In
tense Cold.

Running water is usually the last
thing to freeze solid, and when 1t does
so, the cold must be extreme. j.
Claude White, In the Wide World
Magazine, gives the following descrip-
ton of this very rare occurrence
the freezing of mountain torrent in
a single night.
The phenomenon was one that
have never before experienced-a run
ming river frozen solid in night!
When we arrived the waters of this
stream, tumbling over the great boul-
ders and rushing through the tortuous
channels, made a deafening roar.
Gradually, but almost perceptibly, the
tumult decreased, while, worn out
after hard day, we fell asleep.
"A few hours later, when we awoke.
a deathly silence prevailed, and on
looking out. to my intense surprise. !

previous night had been transformed

CHAPTER XVIII.
A Tramp and the Toothache.

The bitterness toward the dead
president of the Traders bank seemed
to grow with time. Never popular, his
memory was execrated by people who
had lost nothing, but who were filled
with disgust by constantly hearing
new stories of the mans grasping
avarice.
But, like everything else those days,
the bank failure was almost forgotten
by Gertrude and myself. We did not
mention Jack Bailey; had found
nothing to change my impression of
his guilt, and Gertrude knew how /
selt. AS for the murder of the bank
presidents son, was of two minds.
One day thought Gertrude knew or at
least suspected that Jack had done 1t;
the next feared that 1t had been Ger

A Wild Aster Luncheon.

The lovely wild aster furnished the
key note to one of the prettiest lunch
cons ever attended This dainty
flower is very common, and really 1t
Is very beautiful. With 1t always
comes the golden rod, as they grow
usually in close proximity. For table
centerpiece there was low green
pottery bowl containing flower hold
er, so that the blossoms branched out
in charming manner. The doilies
were white, with finger bowl and tum-
bier doilies having embroidered de-
signs In lavender. First we had iced
grape juice in tall glasses resting on
doilies Of grape leaves. Then there
was the usual luncheon menu with q
delicious grape Juice sherbet for des-
sert, decorated with candied violet
leaves, the plates set in wreath of
asters. The rooms were lavishly dec
Grated with golden rod, and the COM
bination Of lavender asters and the
brilliant yellow was very effective.
