miles in the sky III mp not
only by searchlights but by the
flames of great fires beneath which,
for all London knew at midnight.
might be burning the heart out
OF the capital, There was serl-
Gus alarm, OF course, but ahso-
mtely no rush TO escape the city, no
screaming women, none of the scenes
always associated with great natural
catastrophcs.
So far as ! could Judge from tho at
titude Of the people I'm the hotel dts
trict, there were two pr~edomindtins
emotions in the breast of the aNerag"
Englishman and English woman,
while the beautiful but terrible TRACE
dy was taking place.
The first was cold. blttor anger. The
spectacle OF ambulances rushing back
forth. containing he knew the mangled
bodies Of women and children, could
not be Indifferent to a man who be-
lieved AS everyone here does, that
such an attack on a great city is an
act of savagcry utterly indefensible.
Righteous wrath, then, had much
to do with the absence of panic.
People were so busy "SrafeinE'' the
Germans-the Tcutonic word for
hate has become a permanent addi-
ton to the English language, due "a
the famous phrase Colt Strafe Eng
land" that they had little room ieft
for the emotion OF fear. But there
was a still more important reason why
people refused TO lose their heads at
the time. or since. Every one told his
nelghbor and himself that the princi-
pal object OF the raids was not to do
material damage. which could not be
Of great military significance, but Ia
Iterrify the pOpulsce.
Little knots gathered around cru
dite citizens who explained, their re-
marks punCtuated by the sharp re,
ports Of the anti-aircraft guns and
the duh bOoms OF the exploding
bombs how the German book on the
conduct of war issued to officers en-
phasiZed the necessity for terroriZinp
civilians SO that they might bring
pressure On their home government to
conclude a observation-disclosures peace.
When q civilian, i'm a moment Of
danger, hears such a thing as this, he
becomes q soldier. He is undisCiplincd
as before, but he adopts the sol.
dicr's point of view. His attitude to-
ward personal danger changes JUST "a,
does that of the soldier i'm battle. fOI
he feels as the soldier feels that his
country's fate depends, i'm part, upon
how he meets an attack directed
against himself.

LONDON, Sept. lS.-Zeppelin week

North sea from Emden and hurleo

towns. For a few nights now w

in which five raids were made are
called Zeppelin week and as Yep

A girl could stand on the roof OF the

More stringent regulations against

to prevent the commanders Of the

Gications were present that the oil
sands might cross the river at a point
Just northeast of this city.
In his meanderings through the
woods and over the fields in this To-
caltiy. Randall had come upon the
two islands that lie i'm the river east
and northeast Of clifton. They are ex>
tensive tracts at low tide and their
caps remain well out Of water at high
tide. on the one nearest clifton, and
which no doubt will always hereafter
bear RandalTs name, there is really

cottonwood trees and an extensive
acreage Of c~ockleburs. The salt Of
the Cimarron and the oil from the
field have seen to 1t that all other
vegetation has been blighted.

licved it could be taken under the
homestead laws. II vas claimed as

agent, was fixing the fire in the engine

the fire some Goals dropped out. Mr.
Jorgenson, in attempting to gather
them from the floor, upset a can of
gasoline. An explosion followed. He
fought the flames with extinguishers
until the fire department arrived, in
spite of the fact that his clothing was
on fire. Just as stream of water
was thrown on the building, he rushed
out Of doors, a mass of flames. Some
one had presence of mind to throw the

and put the fire out. He was terribly

Holbein to Get Minot
Commercial Club Job

Minot, Nov. 26.-W. E. Holbein, who
has been in charge of the North Da.
kota building and exhibits at the San
Francisco fair since the opening Of
that enterprise, has been selected for
secretary of the Association of Com
merce of this city and will assume
his duties as such on Jan. l.
D. S. Hollenga, who has filled the
position of secretary for several years,
has resigned to accept similar posi-.
ton with the commercial body of
Fulton, New York. He will leave for
his new position tomorrow. Mr.. Hol-
lenga has had the matter of the
change under consideration for some
time and the final details of the con-
tract with the management at Fulton
have been completed for several days.
The new secretary is not unknown
in North Dakota. He was for several
years engaged in newspaper work at
Lansford, where he edited and pub
lished The Lansford Journal. He was
candidate for the republican nomi-
nation for commissioner of agricul-
ture and labor in the primary election
of 1914 but was defeated. He was ap-
pointed secretary of the Panama-Pa-
cific exposition commission and placed
in charge of the work at San Fran
cisco Immediately upon the opening
of the fair.
He is a publicity man of more than
ordinary ability, having been trained
in the practical school of newspaper
experience, the only field in which
publicity training is successfully
learned.
