Thunder at Sea,

The Astronomical Society of France
has again taken up the discussion
which has been before 1t on several
previous occasions, and that is the
statement that thunder is never heard
at sea The statement was originally
1t has been frequently questioned, but
those who insist that they have heard
thunder at sea have also stated that
the pealS were not 50 loud as on land
A large number Of seamen have been
found to agree with the scientist, al.
though it is suggested that the other
noises prevailing on shipboard during
storm may be the reason why the
thunder often passes unnoticed.

SUBMARINE SINKS HESPERiAN.

While the report of the navy board
which found that the fragment OF
metal forwarded from London as evi-

forwarded to the Berlin foreign office
as matter of information, it will
not be accompanied BY any represen-

The fragment was turned over to
Ambassador Page by the British ad-
miralty with the statement that it
was found on the HeSperian's deck
after the explosion. No sworn state

was indicated that no representations
would be made to Germany. which has
consistently maintained that the
steamer was not torpedoed by Il Ger

these facts. They know also that q

THE MENACE OF TOO MUCH

When we have our iii, we have

Other things appear to be run on
the same principle.
Our banks are jammed with money;
our large financial institutions with
gold and its equivalent. Yet this is
called a menace to- the country. We
are told that we cannot possibly abb
sorbe all this capital, though the ma

like to borrow money at fair interest.

LUCK BRINGS
LUCK
BY M. QUAD
Copyright, 1915. by the Mcclure
Newspaper Syndicate.

There is case which is always on
call OH the calendar, a warfare going
on every week and day and hour in
the year. 1t is the case Of detective
versus criminal. 1t is the warfare be-
tween hide and seek.
During the year that | was III the

tive work. | have known officers who
We're honest, conscientious and pains
taking. but who always just missed II.
If they had been on case for six
months and had finally run Il man
down until he was within arms length
some one else was sure to step In and
bag the game ut the last moment. 1t
is an old saying that luck brings

case. My first capture was that Of
Dick Norton. the famous Tennessee
outlaw of thirty years ago. l was in
Nashville when he shot and robbed two
men on 4 highway forty miles distant.

ton you may give Of particular man

Dick Was six feet high. with brown
hair. blue eyes. sandy whiskers. etc.
The only real point was in his manner
Of speech. 1t was said that he always
rolled his eyes upward when beginning
a sentence. He did this on the advice
of an Old woman TO break him Of the
habit Of suffering. and it was sue
cess.
Just q week after left Nashville l
was in Evansville. Ind. AS I.sat in
the office of hotel q man came in
and registered. and when he answered
the inquiry Of the landlord up went
his eyes. When had seen him do this
three or four times l began to com.
pare him point for point with my de-
scription of Dick Morton. and in five
minutes l was satisfied that l had my
man. He had been shaved, had his
hair cut and wore q suit Of black, but
there were some things he could not
hide. The little finger Of his left hand
was off to the joint, he held his head
cooked to one side when listening to
you, and his right foot toed in as he
walked. l made no move until after
dinner. Then as he came out of the

In the fall OF the next year pay

He was q government nun ana was III
Cairo when he received the money. He
put it in a satchel and lost himself be-
tween q o'clock in the evening and
sunrise next morning. He had been
gone three days when reached Cairo
He was described to me as a tall. slim.
light compleXiouel man with side
whiskerS, blue eyes and auburn hair.
There was nothing peculiar about him
except the habit of rubbing the back
of his left hand with the palm OF his
right when speaking. This was very
slight clew to work on. but it was all
had. ! searched for four days around
and outside of Cairo. but couldn't strike
his trail.
I could hear nothing Of the paymas-
ter and was about to return to Cairo
to take up Il new line Of pursuit when
a stranger approached me with a prop
osition. Ho was farmer, and per-
haps some one had pointed me out as
capitalist or Spectator. He had a
lot of black walnut timber which he
wanted to get to martoet, but needed
money as starter. He offered, IN
case | would advance $500, to give me
a certain share in the venture. and as
/ thought well of It | drove out to his
place, distance Of twelve miles. We
reached there at night and next morn
ing walked through the timber. at
about 10 o'clock we came TO the farm,
which backed against his. and as we
were both thirsty we walked to the
well for a drink. While there a wo-
man. with whom my friend was we'll
acquainted. came out, and we all sat
down OH the side Of the porch for a
chat. After two or three minutes
man came out. and she introduced him
as her nephew from Ohio. He was
roughly dressed, but any one could see
that he was in disguise. He had
shaved clean. the sun had burned his
face and neck, and his hands were not
very clean, and he explained that he
had served year in the army, but was
discharged for disability and had gone
west to rough it for few weeks. We
somehow got to talking about some OF
the battles on the lower Mississippi
and as my farmer friend and the
stranger did not exactly agree the dis
cussion soon waXed hot. Then, to my
great amazement. the stranger began
to rub the back of his left hand with
his right. / then compared him with
