printed in the newspapers, anC ! agree
most heartily with Judge Werner. We
had the advantage OF seeing the Wit
nesses and Of hearing them give their
testimony, and in my mind that counts
for a great deal. I have nothing further

The rest Of the jurors questioned yes

The attitude Of most ~ them seemed
to express relief that they personally had

Infest the City Of Fairmont and
Crowd the City Jail There
at Night.

FAIRMONT, Non Fairmont
is infested at the present time by
large bodies Of idle men, who are at
| the present time rowing about the
country hunting work. A large ma
iority Of these people are from Penn
sylvania. In the Pittsburg district,
where recently thousands have been
thrown out Of employment by the
closing Of the mines.
Many Of the men are really honest
and hunting work but of course
there are some who are imposters
and are professional tramps and vag-
abonds.
The city jail is crowded every
night now with men who are penni-
less and come to the city. hall ask for
q place to spend the night.
Most Of them say that they have
been guided to Fairmont by reports
that the good road work and Buck
harmon and Northern works Wsse
going on In spite OF the hard times
and they thought that here they
might find employment. While many
lof them have found employment In
Marion county still there is not work
for all who apply.

STOCKHOLM. Nov. 1s-Will all
Of Germany's and Austria's diplo-
matte affairs centering In the Amer
lean legation here. Minister Morris,
his assistants and an extra corps OF
four clerks are kept more than COM
fortably busy. A recent agreement
between the warning nations to ex-
change lists of prisoners has ma
terially added to their labors. 1t
appears likely that within few days
the formal exchange of consular rep
resentatives, who UP to now have
been hold prisoners of war in Russia
and Germany will be effected.
1t is estimated that 100000 Ger
man and 10000 Austrian non-con-
batants are in Russia. Thousands
of letters OF inquiries about these
have been handled by the legation to
date. Germany is permitting Rus
sian subjects. women and children
and men of non-military age, to re-
turn to their country. These are ar
irving in Stockholm daily by the
score. Their care devolvs upon a
committee of Russians. Twenty
seven American nurses, most of them
young women, eight surgeons, and
three tons. of medical supplies recent
ly passed through to Russia. They
were sent by steamer to Ranmo and
from there by rail to Petrograd. Rus
STA is reported to be very short OF
medical supplies and cotton cloth for
bandages. hence the unusual supply
carried by the American hospital
i people.
A new route. practically all rail.
for English and Russian travellers,
has been developed by the presence
of German warcraft in tfs Baltic.
The Finnish railroad up the eastern
coast OF the Gulf Of Bothnia to Tor
nea, and the Swedish line down the
western side OF to Stockholm, ordi-
narlly chiefly devoted to freight
traffic, have become by force of cir
cumstances fairly busy passenger
carriers. Neither English nor Rus
SLAMS will take the risk of falling into
the hands of the Germans by using
the boat and rail route which is being
followed by the Americans and other
non-combatants. They prefer the
safer four or five days Journey, some
twenty miles Of which must be COW
cred by automobile.

Humdrum, the stranger, came to

The dust was on him from travel.

Ablaze were the cabarets and cafes.
The swift hum of the taxis cleft the
gloom and the silence. Afar he sniff

For Humdrum was hungry.
Amidst a vista of crystal and da-
mask and silver, Humdrum demanded
a menu. He ordered of beefsteak and
onions. Gosh, he was hungry!
Rare strains of weird music came
stealing his senses; the rhythm of
dancing, the rustic of silk.
Came vassals bearing the viands
he'd ordered. His place was void.
Humdrum was dancing.

Madding, insistent, the music re-
called him. Humdrum debated. Once
more he danced
Danced with the potato held on a
fork.
Seventeen times did the stranger
not eat. Seventeen times did he seek
to begin. Seventeen times did the
tango entice. Seventeen times was
the beefsteak untouched.
In the sway of the dance, to the
plant of the VOL, Humdrum just
danced.
Hurt was the gaze he threw at the
crystal, the damask and silver. An
guished his gaze, as he whirled and
dipped, at the beefsteak and onions.
Ever madden, more weird, on went
the tango. The onions, the beefsteak,
grew cold
Dawn tapped at the windows with
slim fingers of pearl. The music was
hushed. The viands, removed. Hum

He was hungry.
