PEASANTS STARVE UNDER
MARTIAL RULE N ITALY
Since Cholera Outbreaks at Ba1eta Popuace Are Dying
by the score-surgeons Are Attacked for Enforcing
Sanitary Regulations Glasses Are Leaving
City Homes and Are Existing in the Mountains.

Milan, Sept. 6.-Barleta, in the
cholera district, is under martial law
as the result of Sundays clash be-
tween the Italian soldiers and thou
sands of starving peasants. Traces
of the rioting and disorder which
prevailed throughout the day have
not been removed from the streets. :.
Monday morning an ominous calm
prevailed, but the rebellious outbreak
against law and order is believed to
be only smoldering, and serious
trouble is momentarily expected.
Masses Are Desperate.
Goaded into desperation by hum
ger, and seeing their relatives and
friends all around them attacked by
the terrible disease, the masses are
almost uncomfortable.
Sundays disorders assumed the
proportions of a pitched battle, in
which women and children ranged
themselves alongside the men. The
ignorant peasants, maddened by the
inability of the doctors of the Red
Cross to cope with the cholera, and
their own helplessness, vented their
rage by storming the hospitals.
Handle Doctors Roughly.
Before assistance in the form OF
infantry arrived many of the sur
geons were roughly handled. Sew
eral companies of infantry arrived at
the scene of the worst disorder SIM
ultaneously, and charged the mobs
with drawn bayonets
Men, women and children stood
their ground. fighting back with
clubs and stones, and even with
knives. Thirty soldiers were wound
ed and large number of persons in
the mob were bayoneted. Many more
were knocked down and trampled
upon.
Forbid Fresh Fruit in City.
Since the cholera outbreak the
importation of vegetables and fresh
foods has been prohibited, and wa
ter hydrants have been shut off un-
less their supply is known to be I'M
tainted.
Hundreds of the city's population
have left their homes and are living
in caves, or are wandering aimlessly

tendent Bowen. The arrest was made
by his orders received by wire yes

The detective was told in very
forcible manner how the inaction of
the company is regarded by the po-

fifteenth occasion when arrests have
been made by order of railway Off
Gals and when later the company has
refused to prosecute 1t is exasper-

My dear children, you see what a calamity has been brought about by the disobedience of your brother, who had become so unruly and venturesome. He has met with his death and brought grief to cur home. which was so very happy. But we must take the lesson to heart. l shall continue to make the home as happy for you two dear ones as can, and you must profit by the lessons of your erring brothers disobedience."
 ''Yes, Mamma we will," sobbed Flo Flo, weeping for her lost brother, whom she dearly loved And we shall try to fill your poor, grief-strieken heart with love for us, Finl-Fum and l will, and help you to recover from the blow of our disobedient brothers wildness and tragic death"
 And I shall be two sons to you, Mamma dear,' said Fim-Fum, tenderly. and, with my sisters help, try to make our home as happy as it can be under the circums tances.. But we shall always gIieve for Tim-Tam, for, although he was very naughty and disobedient, we all loved him dearly"
 ''Yes, my children, and If he had been helpful, loving and obedient like you are he would have been with us this morn- ing, as happy as could be, instead of lying cold and still some place in the meadow where the hunters or the dogs ended his existence. l know you two will never forget the lesson" And poor Mrs Bunny with her arms about Flo-Flo and Fim-Fuul, wept out her sorrow on their soft shoulders. And they, full of love and sympathy, mingled their tears with hers.

The feeble mans voice shook with emotion and he wiped moisture from his eyes. "I bless the day Patrick was born,'' he added.
 "Patricki' exclaimed Julia. "Is Patsy's name really and truly PatriekY' And she looked inquiringly first at Mir. Day and then at Mrs. Day.
 Yes, of course he is our dear Patrick, replied Mrs. Day.
 Didn't you know that Patsy is only pet name for Patrick?''
 well, I had never thought about his being really and truly Patrick" said Julia T an so glad that Is his name, though"
 Bert laughed outright. ''Sister is look ing for d St. Patrick today" he ex- plained And guess she has found him. I'll agree that Patsy is as near q saint as live children ever get to be. He is certainly joy to his parents, and all us kids at school swear by him, he's so re- liable and kind-hearted. l say he's brick"
 And I say he's St. Patrick the sec ond" said Julia. Then she got up and took the spoon from Patrick. Here, let me stir your porridge,'' she said in I sis terly way. You have had so much to do that little rest won't hurt you. Please sit down and talk with Bert. for I mean to stay here and prepare your. supper Bert will cut some wood for you, carry 1t into the shed, and then we'll have to run on home But we'll tell Mamma how i'll your father and mother have been and tomorrow Mamma will be herewith a basket of things for sick people. Mamma is saint, also, you know. And one saint always wants to help another saint when l in trouble."
 l In spite of his protest Patsy was forced
 to surrender the porridge spoon and sat | down beside his mothers bed. Bert ran l out to the woodpie and soon the ax | and the saw were busy. And after he had gotten a big box of fuel ready for 1 the stove and Julia had finished prepar- 1 ing the frugal meal, they had to say l good-by and depart for home. On their way thither, Julia said 'I am not jok- | ing when say that Patsy Day is really 1 and truly saint. He's the best boy in

He sought it out-some scattered grains on the ground, and was so busy eating 1t that he did not hear the soft step of four-footed creature close be- hind him. And when he did hear the noise 1t was too late.
 lust as Tim-Tam was eating the corn with q relish great dog had nosed his approach and had come from the barn where he slept, and seeing the pretty gray rabbit partaking of meal right under his nose, so to speak, he had easy prey. With one bark of exultation the dog nude leap at the naughty Tim Tam, and the next instant had the poor crea- ture between his sharp teeth It was mercy that his teeth were so strong and sharp, for Tim-Tam was not obliged to suffer long. Within second or two the little fellow lay dead at the dogs feet. One great bite through the neck had sufllced to put an end to the rabbit who had crept from his happy and safe home to tragic death.
 The next morning, when poor Mrs. Bunny awoke and went to kiss her chil- dren good morning, her heart almost stopped beating to find Tim-Tam gone. And all that day she and Flo-Flo and Fim-Fum waited and watched for the erring one, and, at last, when night again fell and the strayed one did not come home, the heart-broken mother realized he had met with very sad end Calling to Flo-Flo and Fim-Fam to sit beside her, she said:

 Bert roared with laughter. 'I make no pretense of being n saint, Sister, but agree with you that if there is saint on earth-besldes our mother, of course it's that Patsy Day. And to think his name is Patrick, tool And we discovered his saint-like qualities and his real name on good St. Patrlck's Day. It is remark able.'
 "Yes, and I am so glad VIC stopped at the Days house. for tomorrow Mamma and Papa will go over there and carry some provisions to the poor dear people, They are so patient, so gentle and so kind" she added. And Patsy deserves all the help we can give him.
 "Yes, we'll stop there every evening after school and do their chores till Mir and Mrs. Day are entirely well and strong And 1t will be company to them. too, and Patsy will feel less lonely dur ing tue long day when he knows we are coming in the evening. It makes me very glad to be able to do some good for such deserving people," Then Bert and Julia hurried on in silence.

and strutted about in the grass and dead leaves which lay everywhere about in the woods
 Just then Mrs, Bunny called from the house to her children. Come my dears, it's bedtime,'' she said. And all good Bunnies are in bed and asleep before the stars come out. Come, run into the house."
 They all obeyed their mother, but Tim Tam had an idea in his head which meant mischief. He went to bed, just like Flo-Flo and Fim-Fum, but instead of closing his eyes and falling fast asleep, as they did, he lay very wide awake waiting till he heard his good mothers loud snoring Then, cautiously creeping from his bed, which was shared by Finn Fun, the naughty Tim-Tam left the house and ran out into a big meadow that bor- dered the wood, in whose shelter was his own happy home. His mother had al- ways warned him against going off into that meadow, unless accompanied by her to guide and protect him, for 1t was full of dangers to the Bunnies. A mile to the westward was great house, and there lived those big creatures called people, some of them being great hunters, kill ing and deyouring rabbits whenever they could get them.
 As soon as Tim-Tam got into the open moon gave him light, and the stars-ni- lions of them-added their luster to the moon So Tim-Tam could distinctly see

There were only three in the family iatner mother and young son. And Ihelr livelihood was gotten from small tract of very wretched, sandy soil which required the tilling of every acre, and which grew things so stingily. Indeed, It was said of this family that they suffered dire want during the winter and early spring. for their provisions usually gave out before another crop could be grown.
 In response to Bert's tap at the door boys voice called out: Come in Bert ana Julia entered the wretched abode and saw the mother on the bed, very i'll. The father was sitting beside q rusty stove III which struggled fire of green wood. The boy who had invited them to enter was preparing n meal oyer the miserable Ire, and looked up as his visitors en- tered, smiling. "Ah, howdy do, Bert and Juiia, he. said.

But he is such Il good son. l really cannot tell you how noble he has been during our trials of the past month."
 Yes, Patsy is a fine boy" spoke up MT. Day warmly. And he looked lov- ingly at his son, who was making some porridge.
 Patsy's face flushed from embarrass- ment. "Oh, mother and father only think l am so great,' he laughed. You must excuse them for praising me so, for l am their only olive branch, you see."
