O4u IdJdu. I1C was ChlCuldlluS WudL
step he should take when Mannering
had accepted Kali. 1t upset the plans
that he had built; yet he was shrewd
enough to have~others in view. With
Mannering's aid he could yet carve
out his empire.
Mannering, standing beside the
priest, let his eyes roam over the huge
interior of the temple. He. saw the
decorated walls, the breathless crowd,
completely silent, waiting for the
moment when he would bail before
Kali's statue to be anointed with the
blood of the dreadful sacrifice, the
drawn curtain behind which the ra-
jah's wives were gazing curiOusly
on him.
And at the last moment, while the
sound of the tom-toms indicated that
the goddess was awaiting the 'sacTi-
fee, a new thought took possession of
Mannering. He could not carry out
his plan. Generations of Puritan an
cestors rose up within him, clamor-
ing and crying that he, Christian,
could never yield to Kali.
He perceived the hideous pit into
which he had so nearly fallen. The
world would ascribe his complaisance
to fear! 1t would be said that an Eng
ishman had accepted Kali to save his
life. Was not the empire built upon
faith and loyalty and the courage of
her servants? How could he serve it
better than by remaining true to his
faith, whatever happened?
It was the moment of judgment,
when, unless he say his duty clear as
a razor edge before him, ineaIculable
ills must follow. ManneFing saw it.
The blood of the sacrifice was
drenching Kali's altar. Muzzur
turned toward Mannering, ,motioning
to him to PROSTATE himself Manner
ing waved him away and called to
the crowd.
81 have come here today" he said,

the faith Of the sandpiper that walks
among the marshes before the sand
has set"
He heard a rustic, a sigh, and sud-
denly the whole body Of worshipers
was upon its feet in terror of the sac
rilege that was being accomplished.
For, snatching from the priests
hand the hammer with which the vic
tim had been slaughtered, Mannering
brought it down upon the head of the
abominable idol: And Kali, the many
handed goddess, fell from her pedes-
tai and rolled, a hideous thing, along
the temple floor.
Then; laying down the hammer,
Mannering awaited death. But since
none dared lay hands on him, he went
out into the street. He walked to
the residency and waited. Twenty
minutes later he heard the mob come
roaring down the. bazaar and toward
the veranda on which he awaited
them alone.
He stood there with folded arms,
patient, ready for the vengeance of
the fanatfcal multitude. But, when
they reached him he found himself
standing above a PROSTATE crowd of
worshipers. For even black-skinned
people grope toward the higher, and
by his act the worship of the murder
goddess had been swept away for
ever.

CABINET CHANCE LITTLE AFFECTS
 ADMIRALTY

LONDON, June 25.-No department of state has such an elastic organiza- tion as the British Admiralty, which did not even feel the recent cabinet change. For this result 1t can thank Winston Churchill, since 1t was he who introudced the Naval War Stan feature, which stands behind the First Sea Lord. The stan Is the Ad- miralty's thinking machine, and pro vides ideas and information for who ever may be in charge at the time. It was created three years ago.
 No executive power is allowed the war staff, which is purely advisory. The subjects dealt with cover naval operations, intelligence and mobiliza- tlon. The head of the staff, obviously should be a student of naval warfare and an authority on questions of strategy. He Is empowered to sit with the First Lord of the Admiralty and the First Sea Lord at the meetings of the Imperial Defense Committee.
 When first organized, Churchill foresaw 1t would suffer from a lack of officers trained for stan duties. This lack was supplied by giving the most brilliant of the young officers a spe- cial course of training at the Naval War College. Admiral Sir Henry Jackson, who, as precident of the col lege, put the scheme into operation, was later called to the post of Chief of the War Staff. Although his place was later taken by Admiral Sir Dove ton Sturdee, he remains at the Admir- alty on special service,

TURKISH SN|PERS TOLD P|CK OUT
 FF|CE R $

ATHENS, June 25.-A great propor- tion of officer losses to the French and English forces in the Dardanelles are due to the activity of the Turkish snipers. who have special instructions to pick out the officers. A cores. pondent with the French force writes:
 "The danger to officers in this part of the peninsula from snlpers Is very great. Parties of ten or twenty Turk ish sharpshooters crawl past our lines at night and either hide in tree or get into an abandoned trencn or shell hole. There they lie concealed from view, waiting for an opportunity to snipe at some isolated officer pass ing within range of their rifle. They are instructed to disregard firing upon private aDldiers if it involves any dan ger to themselves, but to miss no chance to bring down an officer.
 In many cases the sniper's eager nes for this duty Is assisted by stories of the huge loot to be obtained from the pockets of the officers. Some of the snipers who have been caught were found with large sums of British and French money, as we'll as other property belonging to officers"

WAR WILL MAKE LARGE NUMBER
 LUNAT|CS

LONDON, June 25.-Sir James Crichton-Browne, who stands in the forefront of English authorities on mental and nervous diseases, says that one of the saddest results of the war will be a great increase in the number of lunatics.
 Addressing the annaul meeting of the Asylums Workers Association, he said: Much of the aftermath of war will find it's way into asylums. The enormous number of cranial injuries will undoubtedly lead to much mental impairment. The large number of cases of shock to the nerves and over strain will cause much neurasthenia and other disorders. There has been throughout the whole country i'm measurable sorrow and bereavement which in many cases will deepen into morbid melancholy"

WOMEN FARMERS MEET SUCCESS
 IN FRANCE

PARIS, June 25-The success with which women have contended with the difficulties of farming is indicated by a report from the department of Meurthe and Moselle. Of the six hundred communes comprising this department, 316 were taken by the Germans and I'll of them are still oc- cupied or are so close to the fighting line that the inhabitants have been unable to return. Tn the balance of the department women replacing men have succeeded In sowing the full acreage of oats and wheat in the com munes that were not affected and 70 per cent of the acreage of the com munes that were devastated and have since been liberated. There was not only lack of male help In this work but 1t was seriously compromised by lack of horses. To facilitate the work the government advanced the sums necessary for the seed and agricul- tural implements on anticipated in- demnities.
 The creaking, numbering two-wheel. ed carts loaded with carrots, turnips, cabbage, onions and other vegetables, driven by men in capes resembling the Alpine Chasseur's "beret," that were were to be encountered in the streets of Paris before the war, are now driven by women. It is due almost entirely to them that Paris is not de- prived of the famous cauliflower from Chambourcy, the celebrated white turnips of Croissy-sur-Seine, the carrots of Monteson and the delicious green peas of Clamart, as we'll as the luxurious asparagus of Argenteun.

r F|NAL SESSIONS.
 MEDICAL MEN
 IN FRISCO

SAN FRANCISCO, June 25.-The material which the European war is furnishing for an important chapter in military surgery, was the keynote of the Symposium on Military Surgery which occupied the attention of the Section on Surgery of the American Medical Association today.
 Dr. w. E. Drennen of Birmingham. Ala, related his experiences during recent service of several months in one of the large military base hospitals in Paris. Roentgen-ray photographs Illustrating the types of fracture and the different stages of healing, were shown.
 Surgeon F. E. Mccullough of the United States Navy described the surgery of modern naval warfare. He showed that proper care of those in- jured in modern naval warfare could only be secured by making careful preparation during times of peace, by anticipating every emergency before battle and by caring for the wounded during and after naval battles.
 Major A. w. Williams of the Medi- cal Corps of the United States Army, in paper on Surgery on the Battle field, emphasized the difficulties en- countered in caring for the wounded in the present European war on ac- count of the amount of trench fighting going on.
 Owing to the massing of large bodies of men in the trenches, and the lack of bathing facilities and clean clothing, many severe cases of infec- ton have developed among the wounded. In Belgium, especially. where the trenches have been dug in a soil that has for generations been heavily manured for market garden ing, the percentage of infection is very high. In comparison with other wars, there is also a much higher proportion of shell and shrapnel wounds, due to the increased use of artillery.
 A new type of wound is that pro. duced by the darts dropped from aero planes in punches of 500 or more, which fall on the enemy like hail, pro- duclng wounds like bullets. Major Williams stated that his experience as a field surgeon showed that by the use of iodine. the skin could be quickly sterilized and surgical work done in the field as safely as In the elaborate operating rooms In city hospitals.
