Annual InHlction.

An east Cleveland young man, &C.
companied by his fiancee. lately called
at the home of a mutual friend, where
there had been a recent addition tc
the family. They were greeted al
the door by the young wife and moth.
er. who happened to be suffering from
a severe cold. After IN exchange oi
conventional commonplaces the young
man inquired after the welfare of the
baby. And the young matron under

cold. Hence the following startling
reply. We'll. ! have one every year

Tom was blind to the intentness
with which the girl hung upon his
words. She seemed bit put out when
he broke of abruptly and devoted his
attention to the soup.

There is no way of ascertaining hot,
this episode would have ended had 1t
been permitted to continue its natural
course. Perhaps it had already ended.
As far as this irate young lady was
concerned. perhaps 1t was all over
with Tom. and he was properly brand
ed an outcast and pariah. However
that may be. right at this juncture
there came an interruption sufficiently
startling to jolt both of them from
even SO absorbing situation as the
present one.
From somewhere forward. without
the slightest warning. there broke
forth a noise of scuffling and of a man
cursing. The intent behind the tumult
was 30 sinister and SO wickedly pur-
poeeful. that. in terror. the girl in
stinctively shrank close to Tom. He
passed a protecting arm about her.
and both stared intently forward. try
ing to penetrate the gloom.
The scuffling and swearing ceased as
abruptly as it had begun Next in
slant they heard a resounding splash.
which was Immediately followed by a
second loud splash.
The two raced forward to find most
of the crew gathered at the port rail,
over which they we're leaning and
peering excitedly into the river. Tom
was not 80 disturbed that he failed to
notice how his companion clung to his
arm. He gave the hand little
squeeze and drew her closer.
Whats the trouble here?" he de-
manded. where's Mr.. Mercer?"
Winnard. the vicarious second mate.
pointed down toward the water.
There. SIR" he replied. "A fellow
wanted to jump overboard-theb blame
fool-and Mr.. Mercer tried to hold
him. Before anybody could help him.
the man knocked him down and went
over the rail. Mr.. Mercer went right
over after him"
Already life-buoys had been tossed
to the struggling pair In the water. and
boat was being rapidly lowered. Tom
glanced over the faces in the dim star
light.
Who was the mani" he askeda
A moments silence. then some one
spoke up: THE big fellow called Cal

France has been dispersed by the din
Of war.
In all the districts Of the Marne
Il was noticed after the battle that
the birds had disappeared. The Ar
gonne forests also have been nearly
depopulated OF all kinds Of game by
the continual turmoil in those re-
gions. Driven TO detached woods and

have been increased in time OF peace.
they now find security.
Apart from sheir enforced exile,
birds are not the least fortunate OF
beings in these times, game shooting
being prohibited in France
The markets furnished evidence
that some poaching was going on,
however, and the minister OF war is-
sued a warning that the sale Of no
other than imported refrigerator
game would be tolorablc. Early in the
war soldiers supplemented their ra-
tions by taking q hare or a pheasant

ORGANIZATION


Christiania, Nov. 1S.--After an ex-
istence dating from 1885, the Society
Tor Suffrage for Women has been dis
solved, there being no longer any rea-
son for its activities, since women in
Norway have now obtained equal
rights with men in the matter OF vot-
ing IN city, county and state elections.
IN 1898 women paying taxes on in
comes of more than $f2 q year were
granted the vote in city and council
elections, and in 1907 the same privi-
ieege was given them in state elec-
lions. In 1910 every woman over 25
years Of age, who had never been a
pupilc charge or sentenced in the
courts, was granted suffrage IN coun-
" elections. no matter What she earn
ca. and in 1913 the Storthing, without
oebate, unanimously passed law
gVing women common suffrage in
state elections.
No Militant suffs.
There has never been any militant
suffrage agitation in Norway; the
women leading the movement have
worked quietly and made headway by
means of pamphlets and lectures.
Leading men in the political world
"aNc hefped them without noisy DEM
ohstration of any sort.
FOR many years women have been
members Of city councils and county
boards. While they have not been
prominent as leaders in reform
movements, they have porved them
serves less apt than men to- become
professional politicians who hold Of
nee Tor the sake Of personal profit.
= couple Of years ago one OF their.
leaders held a seat in parliament for

mas been no other woman member.

European Supremacy,


Belfort. Nov. 15.-'you know" said
one Of the old Alsacians who sought
refuge In this last little corner OF Al
sace that was saved TO France after
the war Of 1870. they can't do much
more than they did before. while we
can do lot more.
The news had just arrived that the
Germans were forcing the fighting in
Upper Alsace and the sound of cam
nonading seemed to bring nearer the
eventuality of third siege OF Bel
fort. The town was none the less
tranquil for that; most OF the inhab-
itants shared the confidence of this
old veteran. who. as he talked, point
ed significantly to the great Lion of
Belfort" that Bartholdi carved In the
solid red sandstone on which the
citadel Is built
Germans DO Not Share Opinion.
The Germans are, no doubt sure
they can do IA lot more than in
1870. They undoubtedly Will, II they
can bring up their 17-inch mortars
but their troubles Will begin further
down the "Belfort Gap'--the open
space between where the Jura noun
tains end and where the Vosges be-
gin. 1t is an inviting opening for an
invader. but II Is capable of many
deceptions.
Colonel Denfert- Rochereau. with
II 900 men, could not prevent Gen.
eral Treskow with a whole army from
installing his heavy artillery on the
Lower Perehes ands the Upper
Perches, the heights to the southeast
of the town that dominated the cita-
del, but he prevented them from taxi

SONS FIGHT FOR

Britons Would Discontinue An
nultieS to Families of Kings
Relatives Who Are Fighting
for Germany.


London, Nov. 26 (10:42 D. nh
The question whether big annuitics
were being paid to certain relatives
Of the reigning royal family when
members of their families were fight
ing for Germany against Great Brit
Iain, was raised in the house of COM
mons today by William Young, NJ. F.,
for Perthshire.
Mr.. Young asked Premier Asquith
whether ha was aware that Prince
Albert. Of Schleswig Holstein, son OF
Princess Christian of SchIcswig- Hol-
stein, daughter Of the late Queen
Victoria and aunt of King George,
was engaged us combatant with
the German army: whether the
prince was In this country at the out
break of the war and whether any
effort had been made to detain him.
Injustice to Taxpayers.
Mr.. Asquith replied curtly that he
had been informed that Prince Al
bert was serving in military capa-
city in Germany" but that he had
no knowledge when, he left England.
Mr.. Young then suggested that the
status of the princes family, who he
said, evidently were German citizens,
should be inquired into. He asked the
premier whether he considered 1t
"just and expedient that the British
taxpayer should be called upon to pay
$4,000 per annum for the upkeep of
hissfamily."
10 this. Mr.. Asquith made no re-
Spouse.
The propriety OF continuing o
siniiiar pension to the Duchess OF Al
baiy, widow of son of Queen Vic
to+ia whose son, the Duke OF Sake
Coburg and Gotha, is fighting for
Germany, also has been questioned.

A State law passed at the Maryland
Legislature during the session of 1914,
makes it unlawful to cut, trim, mutt
late, or in any manner injure any road
side tree, without the permission Of the
State Board of Forestry or its duly
authorized agent. Any tree along anv
highway is under state supervision, and
offenders are punishable by a fine OF
not more than fifty dollars for each
offense
Section of the law provides that,
any person who in any manner paints,
puts or affiXes any advertisement, sign,

matter, other than notices in pursuance
of law, on or to any stone, tree fence,
stump, pole, building or other structure

Of such owner thereof, shall be guilty
of misdemeanor and upon conviction
shall be punishable by fine of not
