"Ah, LAMBERT" she exclaimed over
the wire. They've got you out, eh?
Tired of being a wax work?"
But the trainer paid no attention
to the jibing quality Of her tones and
plunged into a recital Of what he had
heard while he posed as DIR. Crippen.
ITS not true" she exclaimed over
the wire. you're inventing 1t to get
at me! Tom Lambert, will you swear
It is true?"
Lord Beverley entered during her
concluding words and she explained
rapidly to him.
What cock and bull story's this?"
he demanded.
But after another short talk with
Lambert she continued to Beverley:
It's true! He says he overheard
plot to kill The Whip. They mean to
uncouple the horse box at Manifold
junction just the other side Of the
tunnel and leave it where the down
express'll run into it and smash the
whole thing up"
Lord Beverley now talked to Lam
bert in his turn.
IF this story of yours is true,
whose plot is it?" he asked. What!
Captain Sartoris! Greville! Are you
mad or drunk, sir, to make such an
accusation? You'll take your oath up
on it? Going by the same train as
The Whip-prevent the horses start
ing at any cost Yes; I'll do that"
He snapped up the receiver when
they heard the whistle Of the train as
it left Falconhurst station.
"You can't. There goes the train"
lamenteo Mrs. Beamish.
TOO late!" exclaimed Beverley.
II wouldn't have that horse hurt for
three times what she stands to win.
Good heavens, Betty, Harry Anson
and the others-we must save them"
But Mrs. Beamish was already on
her agitated but rapid way to the
door.
And we will" she cried. 1T is
my doing. My stupid jealousy has
led to it all It's my duty to put
things straight, and I'm going to do
it."
"How?" quizzed the marquis.
Give me the big motor and a
couple of men," she said, ''and I'll race
the train and get to the tunnel first.

Not much had been heard Of Villa
for some time until three months ago.
Then ne loomed large. Instead Of be-
ing at the head Of few hundred men,
bandits like himself, he comes to the
front as Gen. Villa" with an army Of
several thousand, an army that Is
growing all the time. Several big cities
fall before his advance and in all Of
them he demands and gets tributes of
money.
A month ago he appears in north
western Chihuahua with a bigger
army under his command than Ma
dero had when he overthrow Diaz. The
dispatches say that Villa is some
where near Chihuahua City. Juarez is
still in the possession Of the followers
Of Huerta- Then something happens.
Juarez has been captured again, and
this time by Villa the bandit. who pro-
ceeds to slaughter the defenseless Of
ficers Of Huerta's army until he finds
that what he is doing Is displeasing to
Washington. la
The biggest and one Of the richest
states in all Mexico is Chihuahua, and
Villa is its ruler. Will Villa make good
his promise to advance on Mexico

Stormy Days for Juarez.
AS for the city Of Juarez, 1t has had
a tempestuous history. Perhaps no
other city on earth has ever been cap
tured, recaptured, invested, and evac-
uated with such monotonous regulari-
ty as Ciudad Juarez. A change Of gov
ernment every few months is its re-
cent record. On May /, 1911, 1t was
held by the troops of Porfirio Diaz un-
der Gen. Navarro. Three weeks later
1t was the provisional capital Of Ma,
dero; after that for year there was
peace. Then the Maderist troop re-
lbelled and looted Juarez. The Feder-
al government rushed troops to the
border line, and the city was retaken.
Next salazar captured the place.
Again the Federals managed to re-
take 1t. All was peace again until the
murder Of Madero. But from that mo-
ment until the present Juarez has
been storm centre Of the revolution.

her phrases Of pity for the old woman
who had robbed her.
Finally, his mirth over, he put one

UNIFORM GRADING
Congressman Lever Has Bin intend
cd TO Save Millions to the Farmers.


Saving OF millions of dollars now
lost annually by cotton farmers and
small manufacturers Is the object Of q
bill which Representative Lever Of
South Carolina, chairman Of the house
committee on Agriculture, introduced
in the house yesterday. The measure
seeks to Appropriate $50 900 TO be used
by the secretary Of agriculture In de-
termining the relative spinning values
Of the different grades Of cotton as
already standardized by law, and for
demonstrating the results Of this work
to producers and consumers OF cotton
The department of agriculture also,
has standardized nine grades OF cot
ton, and is concluding its first iryesti-
CATION for testing the waste, tensile
strength and bleaching qualities Of
these grades. The Lever bill which
will be urged for early action OF con-
gress, proposes to use the information
already on hand to determine the rel;
ative spinning values, and when this
Is done, to provide machinery in the
department for carrying this inforna-
ton out to the farmer and manufac-
turer that 1t may be Of service to
them both as sellers and buyers. r75
The house committee on Agriculture
has been advised that Texas alone is
losing $40, ,000. 900 because neither buy
ers nor sellers have any appreciation
of the value Of this years off- color
cotton in that state. Buyers from the
gulf ports were said to be going into
the interior and buying up low grade
cotton at about seven cents a pound,
shipping 1t to Galveston and there re-.
vamping 1t and selling 1t for IA cents
pound. 49, .A,
This condition of affairs. Mr.. Lever
said tonight, exists to an extent true
in every cotton producing state Zach
year. .r lls.5-- & =
The cotton farmer in the sale Of
his cotton is absolutely at the mercy
Of the local cotton buyer In the matter
Of grades in 80 cases out Of 100,' said
Mr.. Lever. Except for the determin-
ing factors Of dirt trash and stains.
the farmer has no way Of knowing
what grade Of cotton he is about to
esll and is forced to sell at the grade
determined by buyers and many buy
ers are almost as lacking In informa-
ton as the farmer himself Some action
must be taken to secure the sale OF
the south's cotton crop for its intrin-
sic value. The bill lays the foundation
for arousing such sentiment as Will
force state legislatures to inaugurate
some system in cooperation with the
Federal government to provide expert
cotton graders at Tarious cotton CEN
ters Of the country.

The High Cost of War.-we are now

The High Cost Of War-We are now
informed that the Balkan war cost
$745, 600, 900 and that the net result has
been the killing Of 22S,000 men. The
per capita price seems to be very
high one, something over $4,000; but
then what can one expect from these
primitive peoples unversed in the
methods Of civilized commerce? Recent
police disclosures in New York show
that the average price Of a murder is
about $25, and probably even this price
could be reduced on taking quantity.
Evidently the Balkan peoples have
much to learn both in markets and
marksmanship-Th Argonaut.
