 Monsieur
 l regret more than ever that I cannot write your language perfectly. But even In my own I could not find any word to express how badly I feel over something which has happened.
 l took the best of care of Pitchoune. I thought l did, but could not make him happy. He mourned terribly. He refused to eat, and one day I was so careless as to open the door for him and we have never seen him since. As far as I know he has not been found. Your man, Bru- net, comes sometimes to see my maid, and he thinks he has been hurt and died in the woods.
 Sabron glanced over to the mat where Pitchoune, stretched on his side, his forepaws wide. was breathing tranquilly in the heat
 We have heard rumors of a little dog who was seen running along the highway, miles from Tarascon. but of course that could not have been Pitchoune.
 Sabron nodded Tt was. however, mon brave. he said to the terrier.
 Not but what I think his little heart was brave enough and valiant enough to have followed you, but no dog could go so far without a better scent.
 Sabron said Tt is one of the re- grets of my life that you cannot tell us about it. How did you get the scent? How did you follow me-" Pitchoune did not stir, and Sabron's eyes returned to the page us. You left us a trust and We did not guard it.
 He put the letter down 3 moment. brushed some of the flies away from the candle and made the wick brighter. Mustapha came in. black as ebony, his woolly head bare. He stood as stiff as a ramrod and as black. In his childlike French he said:
 Monsieur le Lieutenant asks if Monsieur le Capitaine will come to play a game of carte in the mess tent?"
 No" said sabron, without turning. Not tonight He went on with his letter:

 Half aloud he murmured T left very sacred trust at the Chateau d'Esclignac, Mademoiselle; but as no one knew anything about it there will be no question of guarding it, dare say"

 And Sabron did not know how long Miss Redmond's pen had hesitated in writing the closing lines:

 Sincerely yours.
 JULIA REDMOND.
 When Sabron had read the letter several times he kissed it fervently and put it in his pocket next his heart.
 That" he said to Pitchoune, mak- ing the dog an unusual confidence, that will keep me less lonely. At the same time it makes me more so. This is paradox, mon vieux, which you cannot understand

EXPERIMENT OF
 ALIENS IN HUNGARY
 IS FORMAL AFFAIR
Civilian Prisoners Leave De tention Camp to See Races
 at Vienna.

Budapest, Hungary, Nov. 3O.-In- termed civilians in many parts of Hun gary are treated so Ieniently as to jus- | tify the recent statement that their in- ternment is little more than formal Most of the foreigners who remained in Hungary after the first month or two of war were of long standing in their communities and are not even regarded as in anyway a menace to the welfare of the community. AL though actually forced to live in for mally assigned internnlen4 camps, the trusted aliens are given leave when ever they have a good reason to as- stgn- For example, recently the en- tire. population--only 24-ef an in ternment camp near Budapest, were given a weeks leave to attend the races at Vienna. The FIir1ap tells why they were compelled to return before their leave was up:
 IA party of visiting neutral jour- naiists was being shown the capital a few days ago, and they asked if it would be possible for them to visit one of the Hungarian internnent4 camps. Application was made to the Minister of the Interior, and he immediately designated the camp at Alag. village near the capital where twenty-four en- .emy aliens are interned.
 Two days before the date fixed for the visit the official in charge of in- ternmenr camps rang up his Alag subordinate in order to advise him that visitors were coming and that he should put the colony in order. The following conversation followed:
 ( See that everything is in order at your camp. as dozen neutral news paper men are coming to inspect your prisoners.

ENGLISH QUAKERS IN DlSPUT OVER
 CONSCRIP TON
Split Tn Their Sect Likely As Young Men Will
 Volunteer.

London eNoE. 30.4F'or the English Quakers the possibility Of conscrtpS : ton in Great Britain offers a very serious problem. It has even been, suggested that there is danger. Of a split in the ranks of the church. A committee from the central organfza :, ton is now engaged in sounding every
 male communicant of military age as to his intentions toward the society in the event Of conscription
 A circular which has been sent to these possible subjects of conscription by the committee says:
 Whatever the future may have in store for us we are at least faced with the possibility of military or in Oustrial compUlsion. Should this ac- fuaHy come about. we assume that Friends will stand fast. to their belief in the sanctity of human personality. and to the principles of Jesus Christ as they understand them. be the consa quences what they may, We must uph old liberty of conscience. a right won by much suffering in the past, and not lightly to be re1inquished Should Friends in any proposed legislation receive favored treatment which is not extended to other consci- entious objectors Gas has been the case in the Militia Acts) we feel we shoI,ld wish to support those outside our membership as far as possible. and some Friends feel it might be right for them to resign their membership to this end
 This is practical method which merits earnest consideration; but it should not be forgotten that it might prevent us serving the Society in otn- CT directions, and it's desirability must be carefully weighed against the force, of the argument that if Quakers are given, and accept, exemption, there is every reason why the convictions of other conscientious objectors should be similarly recognized.
 Each recipient of the circular is asked series of questions as to his intentions tin order that those who wish to stand out in the event of Con- scription may be able to keep in close touch with the Committee for rapid of advice and assist ance.''
