TO PAY THE GUARD
Uncle Sam to Be Paymaster for
State Militia.
Proposition Receives Unanimous Ap.
prevail Of Senate Committee
Will Help Solve Problem Of
Military Unpreparedness.
BY EDWARD 3. CLARK.

N correspondent tSltIn newspaper
Union.)
Washington.-The senate committee
on military affairs has given favora-
BILE and unanimous report to a bill
which will make Uncle Sam in part
the paymaster of the national guards
men Of all the states in the Union.
This means that every Republican
and Democrat holding membership in
the committee is in favor of paying
the state troops out of the funds in the
United States treasury for the actual
military work which they perform.
Army men hold that this will increase
largely the efficiency of the National
Guard, will help solve the problem of
military preparedness and will largely
increase the enlistments in the mill
tary organizations of all the states.
This federal pay bill for the militia
may not become a law at this ses-
sion, but members of congress seem
to think that its passage virtually is
certain in the neal future. Under
this bill the enlisted men in the guard
will be paid rs per cent of the pay of
a man of their rank in the regular
service, but of course the money will
be given them only for the hours in
which they are engaged in necessary
military duties, drill, book instruction
and the like.
For years the officers of the Ma
tional Guard from nearly every state
have been advocating this measure.
The governments division of militia
affairs in the war department has rec
commended it time after time. Con-
gress was opposed to it, but recently
seemingly there has been a complete
change of sentiment, the vote in the
senate committee showing this conclu-
sively for it has been said every Dem
ocrat and every Republican in the COM
mittee gave the measure his sanction.
Regular army officers and guards
men alike have urged that nearly all
men when they are paid to do a thing.
no matter how small the payment may
be, feel an obligation to do it. They
say that drill attendance will be in
creased largely, that interest in the
guards work will be keener and that

ed with a view to the torture of the
inmates. One of them is called Lit
tie Ease"
1t is a cell so small that 1t was i'm.
possible for a prisoner to stand UP or
lie down in it except in a cramped
position. Another was called the Pit"
1t was a frightful place into which
little light came, and prisoners were
scarcely better than buried alive.
1t was on April 3, 1875, that the
Tower of London was first thrown
open to visitors, so that nearly 40
years had elapsed before Bloody tower
was placed on view.
None of these parts of the fortress,
however, is equal in interest to the
White tower. where Raleigh was con-
fined, where Richard II took refuge
during the rebellion of Wa Tyler, and
where the duke of Clarence is said to
have met his death in a butt of Malm-
sey wine.
This tower has been open TO the
public for many years. and thousands
of Americans have looked at the ak
with which the earl of Essex is said
to have been beheaded, and the block
at which Lord Lovat knelt on Tower
hill to receive the fatal stroke.

vines beneath the window warned of

there had been a burglarious visit
during his absence.
He went around to the front door
and noiselessly let himself into the
house. On tiptoe he proceeded
through the various rooms. The one
where the window was open was his
study. AS he glanced in he observed
that some money on his desk had not
been disturbed. In the cabinet in the
dining room the silverware was undis-
turbed. There was a rustling sound
In the kitchen. He proceeded thither.
His back to him, a man wearing the
striped garb of a convict was putting

Martin Rood faced his successful
rival in love, a breathing volcano of
rage and other emotions. His face
was distorted, his eyes blazed with a
lurking insanity. his fingers writhed
as though they would clutch the throat
OF Vincent Barrows and choke the
life out of him.
The latter placed a friendly. kind

So it seemed, and so it was. Both
men were rich as wealth went in the
cattle belt. Rood was the elder Of
the two, and was a widower. He was
cynical and imperious, and set on an

wondered If his mind was just right.
In a bitter, open way, publicly, Rood
had shown his enmity for the man

Heroic French Girls Tragedy
Thrills All France.
Kill Their Husbands When They Find
Latter, Who Were German Born,
Planned to Poison Garrison
With Arsenic.

Paris.-How two little French girls
poisoned the husbands they loved. to
save the life of an entire garrison has
just been made known in Paris, and it
has created a tremendous sensation.
Rose and Marie Dupont, two eight
een-year-old twins were born at Vile
rupt, a small village on the Lorraine
frontier. In 1912 they married two
students of chemistry, named Ulrich
and Wilhelm. who loved them so much
that they became French citizens and
bought a drug store in the town.
Both unions were most happy until
July 20 OF last year, when the hus.
bands received a letter from across
the frontier. Immediately both be-
came very nervous and asked the two
girls to go to their grandmother's
home in Longwy until the situation
cleared.
Both went to Longwy. but found
that their grandmother was not
there. They returned very late the
next day to ViHerupt.
When they arrived at the drug store
they found 1t closed. Going through
the back garden they peered through
the closed shutters and saw their
husbands, to their great amazement,
talking in quite a friendly manner to
two uhlans in full uniform.
They could not believe their eyes
at first, but they were Mortified later
at the conversation they heard.
A deep plot had been arranged by
ulrich and Wilhelm. They had stored
a big dose of ~strychnine and during
the night it was planned to drop it in
the wine casks reserved for the French
garrison.
Are you sure the dose is strong
enough" asked one of the uhlans.
Why" answered Ulrich, "it is
strong enough to kill all the garrison
and its reserves"
With a low cry Rose shuddered and
tainted. Both realized they
had been fooled, and that instead of
being loved they we're the wives of
the worst of scoundrels and even
worse than that-traitors.
We must act" said Marie, ito pre-
vent this most awful crime, even IL we
must commit one ourselves"
Half an hour later they rang the
door bell. They appeared very
oyous and explained their elation by
laying they had heard the war had
,een averted.
They said they were SO glad that
hey wanted to open some wine in
of peace and the friendly uhlan

Shirts and drawers made in this way

The Japanese soldiers realized the
value of this kind of clothing when
they had to weather a Siberian win

for a cholera belt about 25 cents. The
only drawback to this clothing is that
