ficials have been giving much atten-
ton TO the execution Of plans for the
withdrawal IN safety Of those Amer-

The immediate result Of he state

number of such refugees in the sea

The president has expressly stated
that his suggestion for the withdrawal
of these Americans is not TO be re

based solely uopn the belief set out

Next week is expected to mark the
development Of just such an acute

The rebellion and particularly with
the influence upon that movement of

What Love Is
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

She's sorry, that's all; as sorry as
she can be for her foolish little girl
breaking Off the thorns of the rose of
love and saving to herself that she
has found the rose-she's been all
through il. has mother, all through
the whole foolish misery.
Not the First.
That's why she doesn't say one
word.
Father wasn't the only boy your
mother knew before she was married:
don't believe that, little sister.
Ten chances to one she and father
talked Il all over last night when you
hung around on the porch till 10
o'clock, hoping, hoping, hoping, that
HE would come in for Just a minute.
Ten chances to one mother cried n
little herself when she saw your pitt
ful little face OF disappointment.
Oh, you're not the first one nor the
last to be "madly in love" at 10, and
YOU won't be the first to get over it,
either
Little girl, just laugh and read and
sing, and forget-that's the best way
sec II 1t isn't.
And then some day the real love,
the love that endures and trusts AMI
suffers and does not complain, will
come to your happy heart.
And you won't doubt any more
you will know-and that's how IL
should be-always.

nounCing fires, collapse Of buildings
street accidents and lamentable loss
Of life in all parts Of the metropolis
As the day wore and full details came
to hand the list Of mishaps would be
doubled, while scientific observers
would begin a nine days wrangle in
the effort to determine the precise
reason why the electrical disturbance
should have been wholly confined to
the metropolitan area. Philip Arson,
a ragged boy of Is, residing in a desc
late nook of the most disheveled dis
trict in the East End, possessed the
very genesis OF the mystery yet the
web of fate was destined to weave
a spell that would deity close his
lips
Meanwhile he wanted his break
fast. He gathered thirty fair sized
white pebbles and few jagged
Jumps of the iron-like material
These he wrapped in a piece of news
paper, screwed up the small packag"
tightly, and placed it in his trousers
pocket Thinking deeply about the
awesome incidents Of the previous
night he donned his coat and did not
notice the packet Of letters lying in
the chair. Never before had these
documents left his possession. The
door was locked and the key in his
pocket before he missed them. 1t
was in his mind to turn back. In
another second he would have obeyed
the impulse, had not a mighty gust
of wind swept through the yard and
carried his tattered cap into the pas
sage. That settled il. Philip ran
after his headgear and so was blown
into a strange sea Of events.
Seeking Counsel.
"They are quite safe there" he
thought. In any case, it will be bes,
not to carry them about in the future.
They get so frayed and some day
may want them"
Emerging from the haven of the
news, he found the untidy life of the
Mile End road eddying in restless
confusion through gale. The gaunt
high walls surrounding his secluded
dwelling had sheltered him from the
clustering March wind that was now
drying the streets and creating much
ill-temper in the hearts Of carriers.

Philip laughed heartily for the first
time since his mothers death He
waited until the driver and the wag-
oner had exchanged their farew Il
compliments. Then he made off brisk
~ toward an establishment where
three halfpence would purchase a cup
Of coffee and a bun.
In ten minutes he felt much re-
freshed, and his busy mind reverted
to the mysterious package he carried.
Thinking II best to seek the counsel of
an older head, he went to O'Brien's
shop. The old man was taking down
the shutters, and found the task none
too easy. Without Il word, Philip
helped him, and soon the pensioner
was wiping his spectaCles in the sh,l-
ter of the shop.
