The carrying of firearms by our
glars has been deprecated In Bostat-
ska Gazeta, which apparently is the
only newspaper to represent the
views OF the thieving fraternity. Tha
first number of the Barefooted Ga
zette made its appearance In Moscow
on July /. 1908. At first it was re-
garded as a comic weekly, and the
authorities paid no attention to 1t;
but they soon dis red that it was
the official organ Russian thieves.
Every week accounts of the latest
burglaries and thefts were given, fol-
lowed by comments in which mistakes
that led to discovery and capture
were criticised, and various points Of
the technique of thieving were dis.
cussed. The editor often pointed out
the folly of carrying revolyers when
pursuing the peaceful profession Of
burglary. and advised his readers to
avoid bloodshed whenever possible.

The widow Of one Of Ohio's most
distinguished newspaper editors and
a famous leader in politics in his day,
says she is 70 years old and a "stron-
ger woman than you will find in ten
thousand" and she credits her fine
physical condition to the use of Grape
Nuts:
MANY years ago l had a terrible
fall which permanently injured my
stomach. For years I lived on a
preparation of corn starch and milk.
but it grew SO repugnant to me that l
had to give it up. Then / tried, one
after another, a dozen different kinds
of cereals, but the process Of diges-
ton gave me great pain.
at was not until I began to use
Grape-Nuts food three years ago that
I found relief. 1t has proved, with the
dear Lords blessing, a great boon to
me. 1t brought me health and vigor
such as I never expected to again en-

Behind his sturdy little form, as he
talked, Mccarthy had risen to a sit
ting position, and consciousness was
returning. He weaved to and fro with
dizziness, but was wiping the blood
from his ayes. It was all coming rap
idly back. He must get Sanders away
from there. They would hurt him.
He started to rise to his feet.
The crowd, hushed for the minute
by the tempest of Sanders speech,
was again violent. They wanted to
wait no longer. They were blood
hungry and tired Of delay.
There was but one man in the mob
brutal enough to strike down a boy.
Swift as a bullet and as sure of aim
came a stone, striking Sanders a CLAN
cling blow on the head. Like an ami
NAL stricken to death, his legs crum
pied beneath him, his arms stretched
widely out. his head few backward
and he fell inert IN the body of the
man he a tried so v%aliantly to pro
tect.
The crowd, hqlted by the apparent
tragedy, was awed. Those who had
boys of their own, or who remembered
little Sanders as the stage-drive-,
were shocked to heart and ashamed.
The mob-fever was passing. and in it's
stead stood shame. Shame hat San
ders, one Of their own people, after
all, was lying there, white and limp
and ~lifeless.

control, so long held, was going. The
thought of hat last insult ranked and
burned. His face became livid with
passion. His dark eyes blazed, and
when he resumed both fists were
clenched and shaking at them. You
are a pack that was practically scab-
bed in your own country, couldn't get
work of any kind there, and | knew it.
| disliked your brand from the start,
and you never were more than half
miners. You didn't know ore from
muck. And. worst Of all, you are a
pack of towards. Now-now you are
locked OUT"
All previous outbursts were outdone
by the frenzy hat followed his speech.
The crowd, which had stood still or
writhed beneath the denunciations he
had hurled, burst into curses, jeers,
or threats. The rauCous voice from
the rear made itself heard above the
din in loud shoutings for a ope
Hang HIM" 1t cried. Hang him!"
AS waves tossed by a typhoon, the
mob surged and beloved to and fro.
The manager seemed to grow more
compact, and a deadly light shone in
his eyes. A board behind him burst
outward, and the gaunt, gray face of
the engineer was thrust through, and
after it came a hand which rendered
Mccarthy the weapon. The manager
took it automatically, and stood in a
crouching attitude waiting for the at
tack.
Glover appeared at the opening.
Get back" the manager command

refused to obey me yet. Get Dach, l
tell you, and stay there. This is no
place for you"
Scurrilous epithets were being
shouted by the strikers. Mccarthy
took no heed, but stood as almly as
before. A harsh, insulting voice from
the rear of the crowd shouted some
thing in which the name of the man
ayers wife was coupled.
The leash on the big mans temper
was breaking. He had stood all he
would stand. There was a time to
end all things, and even kindness no
longer played a part in this game.
STOP" he shouted, his face Grim
son with the rush of emotion, and his
hitherto ~unclenched hand thrown into
the air with a gesture eloquent OF
command.
The older habit of obedience and
the lurking respect for a man IN MS
position compelled them to listen.
His voice was deadly quiet now, and
pitched in a tone of tensity that be
tokened the strain under which he
was laboring. Those of the moi VINO
would have jeered were hushed by
their fellows. The manager waited
until the silence was so complete that
the chug-chug of the pumping-machln-
e-y came through the boardings.
This is no longer a strike he said
quietly; its a lockout. This mine
has never opposed a union. 1t has
never tried to import non-union labor,
It never had trouble with its own men
until you fellows came here from the
East. In all the months it has been

Down below in the yard. or level
the shops, was what looked like an
army of men. The place was black
with them. With his back against the
shaft-house, stood the manager, his
great, stocky form planted sQuarely on
widespread feet, his unarmed hands
hanging loosely by his sides, and his
whole attitude that of u~nwavering de
termination. He was evidently ad-
dressing the men, because at some
thing he said Sanders saw the crowd
break into hoarse shouts and wild
gesticulation. Mccarthy stood un-
moved, and apparently was talking to
them again.
Sanders waited to see or hear no
more. He ran unobserved down to the
long tramway and entered 1t through
a place where a board was loose at
the bottom. With glowing eyes he
raced through the semi-darkness to-
ward the s~haft-house.
AS he dashed through the shaft
house he saw Glover, the loyal, stand
ing calmly by the side OF the dark
opening with a rife in his hand. He
scarcely saw John, the grim old engi-
neer, who was carefully, but with
haste, loading a long-barreled and
]blackened Colts. Here were those
who would make any attack a bloody
one.
Outside, the noise Of shouting and
of wild voices came to him stronger.
The excitement seemed to be growing
with frightful rapidity. He would have
plunged through an opening near
Mack, If the latter had not observed
him and said hastily and. with en-
phasis: Sanders, get back in there

big man said quietly: You have never
