Revenue Agents May Lose Places.

Denver.-Revenue agents who were
put to work in the Denver district
when the income tax law went into
effect are fearful lest they lose their
places in the near future. The treas
ury department is dissatisfied with
the collections, especially from cor
porations, and it already has decided
to ask thirty agents to resign. The
Washington officials have called for
a statement from the Denver district,
Just as they have called for state
ments from all of the other districts,
and upon this showing will depend the
jobs of several. The Denver en-
ployes have reason to be uneasy, for
the collections are short here the
same as all over the country.

SIR nHN FRENCH DEALS

LONDON, March l6.-(Correspond-

John Frebch's list of names of officers
and men whom he recommends for pro-
motion or reward for gallant and dis
tinguished service in the field is the
longest ever submitted by British
commander, II occupies nearly three
closely printed pages in the Times.
A noticeable feature OF the list Is
the way in which all ranks are classed
together as being eqnally distinguished.
The Duke Of Wellington never men
toned any but officers in his dis
patches, while other British com
manders have mentioned n0n-eommis-
stoned officers or priyates very spar
ingly. Sir John French makes no dis
tinction between the highest officer
and the humbliest private; the names

sooner can get back to help the SOL

So it was that during the long hours
OF convalescence Nan came to know
love. The emotion was so great and
wonderful that Nan was shocked at
her own weakness before the attack.
Jean did not know what her father
and Nan were talking about nor why
her father swept Nan so suddenly into
his arms. but she smiled for the pic

all was well
