ARMY IN FIELD

Paris, Nov. 7.-Crudc drawings OF
cows of varying proportions, some in
attitudes of defense. belli;crency. or
alarm, and others IN grazing posi-
tions, were noticed by French offic-
ers during the early days of the cam
paiSn on the Aisne. The sketches at
first were considered the simple ones
of school children. but the frequency
with which this subject appeared on
walls. buildings. bridges and in every
available place in the departments OF

ficers. who conducted "A thorough in
vestigation. They are now con-
vinced that the system was used by
German scouts to direct the armies
that were to follow.
There was Il great variety in the
size and of the drawings and in the
positions of the heads and other par
ticulas. BY comparing notes and
notes it was discovered that these
crude pictures had a very intimate
relation with passing events. Ger
tain categories of the pictures coin
cided in every case with the same de-
vclopments in the military oaera-

system of communication had thus
been organized. similar to the sys-

Walsenburg, Colo, Nov. AFTER

the district court this afternoon re-
turned a verdict of not guilty in the
case Of ]. C. Russell, William Mccain,
H. C. Wetmire and Joe Macs, four
mine guards charged with shooting
and killing three strikers during the
Seventh street riots on October "a of
last year. The evidence showed
that the man had shot in defense
of their own lives after a mob of
strikers had attacked them while
transporting load of household fur
niture belonging to working miner
from his home to a nearby mine.
The taking of testimony opened
yesterday morning. The state could
not establish its case and the defense
clearly showed that the men had
been attacked and that there was no
shooting until strikers in the crowd
opened fire on the guards. Great
satisfaction was expressed over the
verdict. The defendants were repre-
sented by Judge J. G. Northcutt and

Of the war which. during the early
stages of the campaign were only
broadly related. daily are becoming
more closely intcrlaced as the Rus
slams draw nearer the German from
tier. 1t is argued by British obscrv-
ers that If Germany can sold en-
ircnched positions along the river
Warthe in Russian Poland she may
be able to hrow much needed men
into Belgium but on the other hand
If 1t is true that the Russians have
occupied Rolo on this river. the
theory is advanced that the defense
value of the stream is to an extent
lessened and it may require every
man that Emperor William now has
there. if Germany hopes to put up a
stand along the Warthc to rival the
resistance shown along the Aisnc.
A more frequent exchange OF mes
sages between General Joffre, tho
French commander-in-chi and
Grand Duke Nicholas. commanderin

seem to indicate how closely the al
lies are attempting to make their

chief-maker. Ostensibly, the truce still
held, but at no time since it's signing
had matters been so freighted with the
menace of a gathering storm. The
attitude Of each faction was that Of
several men standing quiet with guns
trained on one another's breasts. Each
hesitated TO fire, knowing that to pull
the trigger meant to die himself, yet
fearing that another trigger might at
any moment be drawn. Purvy dared
not have Samson shot out of hand, be-
cause he feared that the Souths would
claim his life in return, yet he feared
to let Samson live. On the other hand,
II Purvy fell, no South could balance
his death, except Spicer or Samson.
Any situation that might put condi-
tions to a moment of issue would
either prove that the truce was being
observed, or open the war-and yet
each faction was guarding against such
an event as too fraught with danger.
One thing was certain. By persuasion
or force, Lescott must leave, and Sam
son must show himself to be the youth
he had been thought. or the confessed
and repudiated renegade. Those ques-
tions, today must answer 1t was a
difficult situation, and promised an
eventful entertainment. Whatever
conclusion was reached as to the art
lists future, he was, until the verdict
came in, visitor, and, unless liquor
inf1amed some reckless trouble-hunter,
that fact would not be forgotten. Pos
sibly, it was as well that Tamarack
Spicer had not arrived.
Lescott himself realized the situa-
ton in part, as he stood at the door Of
the house watching the scene inside.
There was, of course, no round dane
ing-only the shuttle and jig-with
champions contending for the honor
of their sections.
In the group about the door, Lescott
passed a youth with tow-white hair
and very pink cheeks. The boy was
the earliest TO succumb to the tempta-
ton of the moonshine jug, Il tempta-
ton which would later claim others.
He was Keeling crafty, and his albino
eyes were now red and inflamed.
"Thets Their damned furriner thet's
done turned Samson inter a gal" pro,
claimed the youth, in thick voice.
The painter paused, and looked
back. The boy was reaching under his
coat with hands that had become
clumsy and unresponsive.
Let me git at him." he shouted,
with wild whoop and dash toward
the painter.
Lescott said nothing but Sally had
heard, and stepped swiftly between.

abandoned themselves to these diver

in more serious conclave. Jesse Purvy
had once more beaten back death, and
his mind had probably been devising,
during those bed-ridden days apd
nights. plans of reprisal. According
to current report, Purvy had an
nounced that his would-be assassin
dwelt on Misery, and was marked
down." So, there were obvious ext
gencies which the Souths must pre-
pare to meet. In particular, the clan
must thrash out to definite under
standing the demoralizing report that
Samson South, their logical leader,
meant to abandon them, at a crisis
when war-clouds were thickening.

Tamarack held as a feud victim, or
was his arrest legitimate? How to
learn that was the problem. To send

To send a single inquirer was to de-
