The body of Ole Harma was found this morning in the dead mans cabin by Marshal Jack Davies.

He entered trough the window, and found deer carcass where it had been deposited by the dead nan after coming in from 6 lunt, then his clothes hangine
 round the stove evidently 'laced there to dry after a hard rip up the mountain, and then.

coffee, tea and cocoa, sugar-and,
above all, salt.
They did not forget the salt. Paris
has not yet forgotten that siege back
in 1871 and her children have heard
what it means not to have salt.
The money panic added to the fam
lily providers troubles. Many people
after standing six or eight hours
awaiting their turn at the busy clerks
made their purchases with due care
and judgment and rendered payment
in the form, say, of 100-franc note
$500.

clerk would demand.
That's all 1 have" the customer
would reply.
Then monsieur will have to leave
the merchandise" and the clerk
would turn away and wait on an
other customer.
The clerk mean exactly what he
said. He was as exoriable as the
Chinaman whose motto was mo
tlckee, no WaShee. Two or three
days before the mobilization order,
change had been next to impossible,
and even the biggest restaurants re-
fused to change anything bigger than
a 81 gold piece-ard they changed
this because gold was at premium.
incidentally, the famous bank of
France did not measure up to ex-.

nounced that millions and millions
of money in silver and in five and 20
francs paper emergency tender

Paris (By Mail to New York;, Aug.

Felix Dumesnil, aged 8, lives in the

first day of the French mobilization
his father was called to the colors.
AS each reSerViSt was called to re-
port at some particular point, l
asked:
Felix, where is your father go
ing?"
ITO Berlin" the French boy re-
piled, quite as if Berlin was just
across the street.
In the early days of the mobiliza-
ton the oldest and most alarming
spectacle in Paris was the run on
grocery stores. ..
These were literally besieged by
foresighted people who love to eat.
Thursday and Friday following the
call to colors those places of bust
ness had doubled and trebled their
forces, and even then long waiting
lists of people desiring to be served
were seen.
Police had to be called to preserve
order. Lanes were roped off and in
side of these people waited patiently
for hours for a chance to buy.
The idea was clear enough. Fear
ing food shortage they wanted to
lay in supply. The period of mob
ilization had been calculated at 81
days-that was the popular idea any
way-and during these Fl days all
the trains and all the trucks and most
of the wagons would be in use haul
