The sunset was forming in the west

Jacob looked. He saw a little gray
house, through the uncurtained window
of which the sunset flared like hearth
fires. There was a great lilac tree lean
ing over the roof. A trail of ruined stone
steps led up to the weatherbeaten door.

He followed as Juliet ran lightly up
the way to the house. The door opened
at her touch and they entered. The
whitewash was yellowed with time, the
paper faded and window lights broken.
There was a rusty, broken little stove
and upstairs stored away under the caves
an old bedstead, some crippled chairs
and table. They hauled down the
chairs and the table and Jacob made a
fire in the rusty stove. Then, sitting
in the warmth and the light of the fire,
they ate the rest of their bread and
cheese. What matter if the morrow were

STORIES FOR BEDTIME.
Some One Fools Old Jed Thump-
er, the Gray Rabbit.
By Thornteu w. Burgess.
Copyright. 1919. by J. q. Lioydt

Old Jed Thumper sat In his bullbriar
castle In the middle OF the Old Pasture
scowling fierceiy and muttering to him
self. He was very angry. was old Jed
Thumper. He was so angry that present
ly he stopped muttering and began to
chew rapidly on nothing at all but his
temper, which Is a way angry Rabbits
have. The more he chewed his temper
the angrier he grew. He was big and
stout and strong and gray. He had lived
SO long In the Old Pasture that he felt
that II belonged to him. and that no other
Rabbit had any right there unless he
said so. Yet here Gas a strange Rabbit
who had the impudence to come UP from
the Green Meadows and refused to be
driven away. Such impudence! He
couldn't remember when such q thing
had happened before.
or course, il was Peter Rabbit, OF
whom old Jed Thumper was thinking. II
was two days since he had caught a
glimpse of Peter, but he knew that Peter
was still I'm the Old Pasture, for he had
found fresh tracks each day. That very
morning he had visited his favorite feed
Ing ground only to find Peters tracks
there. 1t had made him so angry that
he had lost his appetite and he ad gone
straight back to his bullbriar castle 10
think II over. At last old Jed Thumrer
stopped chewing on nothing. lie scowled
more Hereby than ever and stamped the
ground inn atiently.
IN hunt that fellow till I kill him
or drive him far from the Old Pas
ture that he'll never think Of coming
back. l certainly WIFI he said out loud,
and started forth to hunt for Peter Rab-
bit.
Now, il would have been better for
the plans of Old Jed Thumper if he had
kept them to himself instead of speak
ing aloud. Two dainty little ears heard
what he said and two soft. gentle eyes
watched him leave the bullbriar castle.
He started straight for the far corner
of the Old Pasture, where. although he
didn't know it, Peter Rabbit had found
warm little summing bank. But ne
hadn gone far when, from way of in
the opposite direction, he heard sound
that made him stop short and prick up
his long ears TO listen There II was
again-thump, thump. He was just going
TO thump back an angry reply when he
thought better of il.
IF l do that" taought he, I'll only
warn him, and he'll run away, just as he
has before
So instead he turned and hurried i'm
the direction from which the thumps had
come, taking the greatest care to make
no noise. Every few jumps he would
stop to listen. Twice more he heard those
thumbs, and each time new rage filled
his teart and for a minute or two he
chewed his temper.
Hes down at my blueberry patch"
he muttered. and hurried on
All last he reached the BURBERRY patch
Very softly he crept to a place where
he could see and not be seen. No one
was there. No. sir, no one was there,
He waited and watched, but there wasn't
hair of Peter Rabbit to be seen. He
was just getting ready to go look for
Peters tracks when he heard at thump,

SAYS ELECTION
ISFOLLOWED
BY NIGHTMARES

A brief but comprehensive review
| of the. stock market during the first
half of 1918, and a forecast for the
latter half. are contained in the late
letter of Henry Clews, under date of
July 5.
He says that ever since the cleo
ton the market has been treated with
succession of nightmares. The Bal
kan war, fear of a world wide strin-
gency in the money market, tariff re-
vision, unsatisfactory condition of the
railroads and the series of important
Iuissolutions in compliance with the
Sherman antitrust law were the pro-
moters Of the nightmares, he says.
At the close of his letter he pre-
diets that better times are near at
hand Though he adds. at the close
of his review, that pessimisn is in
danger at this time of being over
done. The following is from the let
ter:
Outside of the financial district con-
ditions are really more encouraging.
The crop outlook is still very satisfac.
tory, beneficial rains having fallen
freely where most needed during the
past week. The winter wheat crop IS
already harvested, showing a yield of
10O, 100000 bushels greater than year
ago. The government report on grain
will shortly be out and will be
watched with close interest. While
general trade shows the usual summer
QUIET, merchants are anticipating a
much more active business as soon as
the tariff is settled In many cases
shelves are bare and active buying
will be necessary for replenishment.
This means restarting of many idle
mills. From many sections of the
country trade reports are decidedly
encouraging, and good harvest will
insure good business for another six
months. Steel orders are being slim
rlated by slight concessions. There
is only one spot that requires serious
caution: that is the money situation.
Bankers are still very conservative
and are inclined to enforce contrac-
ton and Moderate REIMBURSEMENT Lii
quidation has been prolonged and Sc
we're in securities; 1t has made con-
siderable progress in commodities,
many of which have undergone sharp
declines. It is now making itself felt
in the restraint imposed upon any ex.

pansion or improvement In short
the process of self-rightfng has been
going on for nearly q full year; many
difficulties have been safely passed
and those that remain have been well
discounted As soon as the crop and
monetary situations get beyond the
range of uncertainty we may look for
a better stock market. Just now pes.

CCNFESSES TO
DYNAMITING

Wireless messages from Hilo are to
the effect that Wilson Nahakuelua,
Friday. made q complete confession OF
his attempt to kill Deputy Sheriff
Simmons of North Hilo. by dynamite
ing his home Saturday morning, July
II.
Nahakuelua had previously main
tanned stout denial of any connec-
ton with the dynamiting outrage. in
the face of a mass or circumstantial
evidence that pointed to him as the
culprit and only after Sheriff Pua
pinned him with the evidence of his
shoe prints in the dirt around the
simmons home did he weaken and
admit the attempted murder.
The dynamite, he admits. was secur-
ed from the supply used for road
work. as had been suspected from the
start
Fear that he might kill Mrs. Sim
mons also caused timidity on the
part of the would-be assassin. who
affixed several sticks of dynamite on
the side of the house opposited to
that in which the couple were sleep
ing, according to the alleged confes-
sion.

ditions here are by no means as bad as on Sixth street. Saturdays case was at 384 North Main street where Dr. Lewis overruled the parents ob- jection and found a four-year old girl with a severe case of the fever. She was taken at once to the hospital the death of the Siatkowski girl having provided room for her.
 Dr. Lewis was busy on Sunday in getting the town contagious hospital on Asylum street ready for occupancy It will be fitted out with beds and other equipment necessary and will be noon, with a trained nurse in charge. Dr. Lewis found it impossible to se- cure a nurse in Norwich and te1e- graphed to Beverly, Mass, where he secured the services of Miss Johnson. a graduate of the Backus Hospital Training school who will be here to- day The contagious hospital has not been used for a period of two years.
 Five of the patients who are on the road to recovery at the Backus hospi- tai will be removed to the contagious hospital and the three new Greene vile cases will replace them in the isolated ward.
 strict quarantine was kept on Sunday, police officer being detailed to keep the families in the infected gravity of the situation from wander ing off and communicating the disease to those whom they meet. With this purpose of lessening all risk of dis seminating the fever Health Officer Lewis had a largely attended engage ment party in Union hall stopped Sat urday night.
