War and the SAMOAN Islands.

A special link exists between Scot
land and the German Samoan Islands,
which have just been occupied by a
British expeditionary force from New
Zealand. Most people know that Vail
ina, on the island Of Upolu, was the
home Of Robert Louis Stevenson in the
closing years of his life. 1t Is not SO
generally known that since his death
the house and estate (some 300 acres)
have been acquired by the German
government, and adapted for use as
residence for the governor Of German
Samoa. Though the British govern
ment renowned all rights over Sa-
moa In 1899, the group has remained
an important center for the activities
Of the London Missionary society,
which has a large training college a
few miles from Apia. From this col
lege, which Is on self-supporting
basis, native missionaries are sent TO
all parts OF the South seas. Until a
couple Of years ago the English Ian.
guage was officially recognized In the
local courts, and although, as the re-
suit Of an agitation in Germany, only
the German language Is now recog'
nized, English is still widely spoken
90 that the translation of the islands
from a German to a British colony
should be an easy process.

He Was Rluht.

King Peter of Servia, who does not
mean to let Austria have everything
her own way, once had for valet a
man who seemed TO find It quite i'm
possible TO understand an order intelli'
gently. However some of his mis-
takes, though annoying at the time,
had their distinctly humorous side.
On one occasion King Peter sent the
man with message to his wife. Alas /!
He forgot II on the way.
King Peter was furious when the
man returned.
why, you noodle!" he exclaimed, 81
don't believe you know what woman

"Trouble, as rule, SIR" was the
mans quiet retort; and his majesty
now wonders whether the man was as
stupid as he used to appear.

ORGAN GRINDERS DAY
HARVEST REAPED BY WAsHIkG-
TON STREET MUSICIAN.
Story From the Capital Concerning
French and German Ambassadors
10 Good One, Though II Is
Not Official.

II was before the war came in grim
earnest, OF course, but here Is the
form in which perfectly respectable
old story used to be told over the Gig
arettes in Washington. When the gov
ernments Of France and Germany
were merely barking at each other
across the conference table, 1t hap
pened one day that an Italian organ
grinder, strolling along the streets OF
Washington, planted his instrument
OF torture on the curb in front Of the
German legation and began grinding
out the Marseillaise.
The strains of Frances great ma
tional air fell upon the ears OF the
German ambassador, Count Bernstorff,
as he sat within. deep In the diplo7
matte puzzles of his office, and frown
overspread his brow; for the Germans,
though music-loving people, love not
the tune Of the Marseillaise. How.
ever, he passed the incident, as a
momentary annoyance, and buried
himself deeper In his work.
When the musician, having reached
the end of the Marseillaise, proceeded
to adjust his machine and play it
over again, the ambassador grew rest
less. And when the third round be-
gan, Count Bernstorff's patience broke
under the strain. Hammering upon his
call-bell, he summoned an attendant.

Is 1t Your Kidneys?
Don't Mistake the Cause Of Your
Troubles. A Logan Citizen
Gives q Valuable Hint

Many people never suspect theil
kidneys. If suffering from a lame
weak or aching back they think that
1t is only a muscular weakness; when
urinary trouble sets in they think
1t will soon correct itself. And SC
1t is with all the other symptoms OF
kidney disorders. That is where
danger often lies. You should re
alize that these troubles often lead
to dropsy or Bright's disease. An
effective remedy for weak or dis
eased kidneys is Doan's Kidney Pills
Read the experience OF a resident OF
Logan who has tasted Doan's:
Mrs. Ann l.. Cowley, 10 North
Fifth West street, Logan, says: 81

MULE FOILS A HOG THIEF
Animal Ran Away and Thereby Gave
Away Beautiful Bit Of
Strategy.

No better example Of ways that are
dark and tricks that are vain has
come to light recently than is afforded
in a dispatch from Bowling Green,
which tells of the arrest Of one Robert
Fftes, colored, charged with the theft
of hog.
The details that are given show the
resourcefulness Of a man when he Is
tout of meat" Robert Fites, colored,
was In that condition last winter, and,
as the story goes, he knew of a farm
owned by a white man several miles
away which was well stocked with
hogs. After sizing up the situation,
he decided 1t would be an easy matter
to get fine young shoat II he had
any way of carrying 1t home after
killing It, This difficulty was solved
by borrowing a buggy and mule
from neighbor-without the neigh
boris knowledge or consent
Setting out in the middle Of the
night, he drove to the place where
hogs were abundant, and succeeded
in catching and killing hog. To con-
ceal his prize he had carried along
q dress and bonnet belonging to his
wife. He dressed the stolen hog In
the apparel, set 1t upright in his bug
gy, and started home. 1t was day
light before he began the return trip,
and 1t happened that he met a few
early travellers along the road. At
such meetings he would address the
hog with admonition: "Sit up, old
lady; folks will think you're drunk"
But the best laid plans go wrong.
The subterfuge might have been sue
cessful II the mule had not become
frightened. The animal ran away,
and threw out both the driver and the
"old lady" A master stroke Of hog
stealing strategy had gone amiss. and,
mindful of the fact that he who steals
and runs away may live to steal an
other day. Robert Fftes took to the
woods. He stayed there for several
months, but when he came out the
grand jury had indicted him, and an
officer found him and took him to Jail.
There Is no doubt that Robert Fites
is a genius In his way. He had a
great scheme The only weak thing
about 1t was that 1t failed to work.
