History Of the War.

When the history of this war
comes to be written" is a constantly
recurring journalistic phrase, as If the
story of this great conflict could ever
be written. You may be fairly certain
that no one under the rank of an
archangel, in close touch with omnis-
cience. will ever write the full his
tory of the world war. Down below
there isn't the knowledge, and there
isn't the time. There will come sec
tional accounts. But If in the fullness
Of time world syndicate succeeds in
getting some million tons of print
within covers, the public will Zone
hopes) be thinking of something else.
Yet the literature of the war as a
personal drama is the domain of the
private soldier, and the best letters
from the front have been written by
the private soldier. On that side of
the literature of war the editor of the
Book Monthly has his eye. He is a
specialist on the "Epistles of Atkins, .
and already he has been gloating and
cleaning with some thousands of SOL
diers' letters before him.-London
Chronicle. \

BAD DREAMS

be the cause of my trouble, SO l got
some Postum and had it made strictly

what terrible effect it has on the hui

READY FOR STERN WAR
WEST INDIAN ISLANDS ARM FOR
DEADLY STRIFE.
Take the Prospect Of Being Involved
In the European Conflict Very
seriously-Forees Like Those
Of Comic Opera.

A cargo Of war tales has arrived
from the West Indies. Every native
there sleeps with his gun under his
pillow.
Little specks Of island that no one
ever heard of north of the tropic Of
Cancer are throwing up towering earth
works and barefooted natives, yester-
days nobodies, are today generals;
roustabouts are soldiers; every town
has guard; every island distrusts
every other island. Ten thousand rusty
f1intlock muskets rule the land, and
from the sea come tales of strange
men-of-war threading in and out
among the islands, always seeking and
never finding one another.
Every native on the island of St.
Lucia is happy these days, for he
totes a gun, rides on a bicycle and
marches behind brass band, and the
government pays for it ALL says the
purser of West Indian steamer re-
Gently locked in New York
Some of the strangest looking bi.
cycles I ever saw have been COM
Wandered by the authorities. Some of
them are the old high-wheel affairs
that our daddies rode; some Of them
have no tires; most of them are red
with rust and all of them squeak. I
heard the troops coming two blocks
away. The arms they carry are in the
same class.
"At Barbados, every negro and Chi
naman on the island has Joined the
army. They have what they call a
life guard to protect the place. What
they are afraid of don't know, but
heard that they have been told the
kaiser was planning to send his fleet
over to capture the possession.
THAT was enough for those natives.
They threw up line of breastworks
and they fire cannon every time a
ship is sighted. They have burnt up a
lot Of powder that way, understand.
Whenever that old cannon cuts loose
the army come lickety-split for the
shore. They line up behind the breast
works with their muzzle-loaders and
their derringers and you've got to
show them that you don't mean any
monkey business.
''At Dominica, near st. Thomas, the
natives have built little fort just to
fight the German navy when it does
come over. There are not enough white
men in Dominica to hold a meeting
and not many more colored. In the
center of their fort they have planted
tall flag pole. Every morning at
daylight a man pulls himself up to
the top Of that flag pole and sticks
there, looking out to sea. He is look
ing for the German navy. Two hours
later he comes down and another man
takes his place. This has been kept
up every day for weeks, from dawn
till darkness.
English, French and German war
ships chase each other around the is
land, and it's no wonder the natives
are fidgety. At st. Lucia there were
10 ships tied up, all afraid to stir out
side the harbor"

His Whereabouts,

A minister who recently called upon
a young widow to condole with her
on the loss of her husband placed con-
siderable emphasis upon the fact that
the separation was only of tenn
porary character, and painted in vivid
colors the happiness Of friends re-
united after death. When he stopped
for breath the sorrowing one heaved
a deep sigh, and quietly remarked:

got him again, them"

There have been rumors Of German
flat-bottomed boats at Zeebrugge for
the invasion of England. It Is timely
to recall that Admiral Montag. re-
ported about Napoleon's 1at-bottomed
boats after he had captured one Of
them. I'm short, sir, these vessels to
my mind are completely contemplate
and ridiculous, and therefore con.
clude that the number collected q
Boulogne are to keep our attention on
the qui vive and to gloss over the real

plated subduing England by means OF

dubbed their emperor don Quixote de

 MT. Chamberlain has already no tiffed MT. Marsh of his intention to continue him in the position Of dep uty- He asked MT. Wright if 1t were necessary to notify the others fn the

 son was at the capitol today Tn a good-humored way reference was
 made to the belief entertained in
 some quarters that under the civil service law no change could be made,
 except for cause, in the supeTinten- dency or assistant superintendency of the capitol. MT. Wilson had no Opin- ion to offer on the matter It may be of interest to note that
 since Jan. |, 1918, there have been 147 changes in positions in state de- partments. the new appofntees being | apr r1c5iYltef7 without C,f ffs ara a n are connected with departments l which have headquarters at the cap I itol, with the exception of the state l library and military, and there were
 only five positions tn these fflIed

 Jan. l., 1913, the number of eu- ], ployees in these departments was l l232.
