streets OF Hixon as a stranger. And,
after leaving Hixon, there was mis-
sion to be performed at Jesse Purvy's
store. As he thought Of that mission
a grim CLINT came to his pupils.
All journeys end, and as Samson
passed through the tawdry cars of the
local train near Hixon he saw several
faces which he recognized. but they
either eyed him In inexpensive silence
or gave him the greeting of the fur
riner."
AS Samson crossed the toll bridge
to the town proper he passed two
brown-shirted militiamen, lounging on
the rail Of the middle span. They
grinned at him, and, recognizing the
outsider from his clothes. one OF them
commented:
Amt this the hell of town.
IT'S going to be-" replied Samson,
enigmatically. as he went on.
Still unrecognized, he hired horse
at the livery stable, and for two hours
rode in silence, save for the easy
creaking of his stirrup feathers and
the soft thud of hoofs.
The silence soothed him. The brood.
ing hills lulled his spirit as a grooming
song lulls fretful child. Mile after
mile unrolled forgotten vistas. Some
thing deep in himself murmured:
"Home!"
1t was late afternoon when he saw
ahead of him the orchard Of Purvy's
place, and read on the store wall, a
little more weather stained, but other
wise unchanged:
Jesse Purvy. General Merchandise"
The porch of the store was empty,
and as Samson flung himself from his
saddle there was no one to greet him.
This was surprising, since, ordinarily,
two or three Of Purvy's personal
guardsmen loafed at the front to watch
the road. Just now the guard should
logically be doubled. Samson still
wore his eastern clothes-for he want.

WAR TERMS NOT UNDERSTOOD
"Forlorn Hope" for Instance, Hat Not
the Meaning With Which II
10 Credited.

In the course Of every war one
hears n great deal about "forlorn
hopes" The term is one OF the most
misused in the vocabulary OF war. 1t
Is commonly misunderstood to mean
lost troop"-that is detached
troop" The word hope" in tho
phrase Is not an English but Dutch
word. hoop" meaning literally
heap" and secondarily lody OF
troops. The word "forlorn" represents
the Dutch "verloren"-lost. A -ver-
loren hoop" was n detached body OF
troops thrown out In front OF the main
line OF battle to find the enemy
and engage them first This was the
regular sixteenth and seventeenth
century practice. and though II was
one OF the more dangerous kinds CT
service II was not desperate or. In
the English sense. forlorn. NowadRy,
much the same work Is done BY the
detached bodies OF cavalry which ara
thrown out before the main line to fnd
the enemy.
"Capituistion" Is another term oi
war. which is very loosely used. II
does not mean surrender. but sur
render on terms: In fact. II means the
terms. not the surrender. II 10 from

EARLY SESSION NEEDED
MUCH THAT CONGRESS SHOULD
DO. AND DO PROMPTLY
People Demand Protection for Lives
and Property Of United States
Citizens on High Seas and
In Mexico.

There should be an early session
of the congress of the United States.
The interests of the country require
that 1t be called into session months
before the first MondaJ In December.
1t is possible that foreign relations
may demand its meeting within 30
days, but whether or not crisis oc-
ours requiring such speedy meeting
there can be no doubt that In late
September or early October it should
be called to care fo- the interests Of
the country.
The people are demanding protec-
tion of our rights as neutrals upon
the oceans.
They appreciate the impossibilities
Of their government maintaining those
rights by moral suasion, citation of
broken laws or pointing to the ten
commandments.
No law. either human or divine, but
has been violated by the factions in
Mexico and by the belligerents upon
the oceans and the continents.
The people of the United States
stand for moral suasion. but when
that fails they know they must resort
to powerful navy and strong and
numerous army under the war demen-
tia which has now taken possession
of Europe and Japan. and they should
have such navy and army at the ear
Hest moment It can be provided for.
The congress is required to meet
to provide these essentials for the
country's protection and defense.
The people of the United States
VIII not stand for rny mined hish
seas nor any seizure or destruction of
their neutral vessels while proceed
ing on voyages to neutral ports, and
this government may as well look that
situation squarely in the face and
prepare to carry out the popular de-
mands on both these issues.
The ports and coasts OF the United
States are not adequately protected.
and the congress is needed in ses-
sion to legislate and appropriate for
that absolutely necessary work.
year of modern warfare has
demonstrated that not a nation on
earth was fully supplied to carry on
defensive war for over GO days so
Tar as cannon. small arms. ammuni.
tion and material and supplies gen.
orally were concerned.
Even Germany failed in its advance
to the Marne because of its trans.
portation deficiency. and lack OF fresh
troops. food. cannon and all kinds OF
ammunition on the fighting line caused
the retreat from the front OF Paris.
Supplies in abundance in Cobientz.
Metz, Liege. Megdeburg and other
fortresses were useless to the troops
on the Marne when the transportation
lines failed them.
The lack OF supplies for British,
French and Russian forces has been
felt from the very first day Of the
war, and these rave suffered losses by
reason OF them.
Congress should meet and appropri-
ate for supplies necessary to meet
modern warfare conditions.
Neither the army nor the navy is
amply supplied at this time.
The revenues OF the country should
be increased.
The republic must have its own mer.
chant marine.
There Is much work for congress to
do. and work that should be done
