MINE MENACE IS
 IN WAIIE 0F STORM


 The storm that swept the North Sea last Sunday IS described by out side newspapers as having been one of the worst of the season. And with the cessation of the storm, the mine menace win be greater than ever bel fore. The southern coast of Norway was whippd by the gale and with the violence and the great extent of the storm, it is certain that hundreds ot| the mines planted by the Germans and British have beon torn from their. moorings.
 This means that those powerful floating engines of destruction may bel washed directly into tho lanes which have heretofore been used by neutral ships. storms iu the North Sen have always been followed by mines being washed ashore at different points.
 Several Dutch mbarines were recent ly Killed by mine washed up an the Holland shore.
 Hazardous at best tho work oi the British nayy. in performing patrol duty in the North Sea has now become one of the greatest trials the sea fighters of England have been called upon Co endure. The winter storms sweeping the sea have placed them in constant danger of floating mines in addition to tho difficulty Of navigation.

The great jewel robbery was the
biggest sensation that Fairmont had
ever known. A great many wealthy
people lived near the pretty lake ad-
joining the town, and the robbers had
sought a grand field for operations.
They seemed to have vanished COM
pIetely, however, leaving no clew be-
hind them. Then two evenings later
new excitement set the village all
agog. BARLEY had bee Mound
wounded and insensible in waste
piece of ground about mile from
the village.
1t was Saturday night, and Worth,
apparently, had been on his way from
the neighboring town where he
worked, bent on his regular visit to
the Winston family, when attacked.
He had been struck on the head with
some heavy, blunt instrument. The
motive of the assault was mystery,
for although his clothing had been
ransacked and torn, his money and
jewelry were intact.
For twenty-four hours Worth lay
insensible at the home of a relative,
whittier he had been removed. Then
fever set in, and for over week
he was delirious or too weak to talk.
