above the two. An hour later he
stuck his head and shoulders out, put
his ear against the ground to hear
better the tread of the sentry, chose
his time well and slipped into the
night. Carefully he crawled between
the tents; cautiously he picked his
way to avoid lights. He worked away
from his own regiment and passed
through the camp of another.
An hour went by and he commsnc-
ed to fear that the moon would frus-
trate all his efforts. At last he left
the manifested area behind and
crept on faster.
We'll" he told himself, "a man
never did anything who stayed putt"
Jimmy crawled on his hands and
knees for what he guessed was three
hundred yards. Then he arose,
stretched himself with a great breath,
slapped his chest gently with the
palms of his hands, smiled up at the
stars and commenced to walk, care
fully, catike. For a half hour he trav-
eled slowly, choosing every foothold.
He glanced behind him and laughed
softly-if nervously-as he saw the
camp lights receding slowly into the
distance. At last he crossed a little
stream that babbled down a rocky
bed. For little while he followed the
road, and then, when the moon shov-
ed it's yellow rim above the hills to the
east, he struck out across the almost
barren country.

Real action was inevitable. Jim
my Crogan was out of it; that was as
certain as is death.
Lieut.. Crogan found himself awake
in the middle of his prison, the sun
light streaming through the cracks in
the wall and his heart humping
stoutly, right up in his throat Then
he laughed. 1t wasn't battery after
all. Just the roar of a planes ex-

Through his window he could see the
thing as it winged it's way to the
south, looking like big bug. Hours
passed and the aeroplane did not re-

come back. The next day third

none came back.
That afternoon Lieut.. Rawley en-

He held up four fingers of his right

ECONOMY FOR THE CABINET.
Limited to SIS Day Expense Money
While Away From Capital.

Cabinet officers are beginning to figure
how they can stretch s5 expense money
a day to cover all their expenses while
actually out of the District of Columbia
on official business. There is a provision
in the urgent deficiency bill which pro-
vides that government officials shall not
be allowed more than 50 day for ex-
penses while actually out Of the District
and away from their offices here.
1t will be a case of lead the simple life
or dig deep into the private purses. An
official of one department asked today
what Congress thought a cabinet officer
could do with s. day when he went to
New York and hired a couple Of rooms
at the Waldorf-Astoria- He declared it
below the dignity of the cabinet ofacer
to stop at any place where $ day could
be made to pay his expenses There IS
no place. he continued where So would
obtain accommodations befitting cabinet
