Der OF the house of commons. where
he sat until he was raised to the peer
g in 1911. His appointment to the
cabinet as minister of war in 1908 DC
casioned much surprise, as he had been
distinguished only for his knowledge
of philosophy and the law. His admin
istration of the wal Office. though able
and of seven years duration. was not
popular. What finally caused his re-
moval from the war office and his APP
pointment as lord high chancellor was
his trip TO Berlin in 1912. when he was
said by Sir Edward Grey to have posed
as an emissary of the British govern
ment without authority of the foreign
Office. In the summer of 1913 Niscount
Haldane visited this country and Can

the Nelson column Is built In with
them. Yet there is khaki everywhere.

In time of peace the fall of winter dark

exchange gloom for deeper gloom and

Red Man Rules Indians.

{ Washington, March Through poll
tics Gabe +. Parker, a quarter blood
Choctaw Indian. has just achieved the
ambition of his life. Without solicita-
ton or even knowledge on his part he
was taken from the principalship OF an
Indian boys school in Oklahoma and
made register of the United States
treasury. Mr.. Parker gave up his
chosen work-that of helping his own
people TO become competent, self re-
liant. contributing men and women
only after a struggle. Now he is about
to return to Oklahoma as superintend-
ent of the five civilized tribes. with
broader opportunity than ever before
to accomplish the task he had origin
ally set for himself.
The job Mr.. Parker goes to Okla
homa to fill is a big one. 1t involves
the welfare Of 1O2. 900 Indians of the
Choctaw. C~hickasaw, Creek, Seminole
and Cherokee tribes. who desire to be-
come citizens in fact as =, as in
name. Under the constitution of Okla
homa they are citizens of the state.
They are wards of the nation SO long
as the government retains a control
in trust of the 100000 acres of their
land, including the richest oil fields
of the world and 10000 acres of coal
and asphalt lands. Mr.. Parker's job
is to carry out the policy of the pres
ent administration and to discharge
into full and complete citizenship as
many of these 100000 Indians as are
ready for the change, or may become
so under his direction.

PROLOGUE.

The Office of foreman on the jury in
the People versus Emory case falls to
the lot of Mr.. Lambert. a literary man,
whose qualifications lay in his absolute
Ignorance of the case. Ferris Barstow,
a man of tenacious tendencies, Is the
lawyer for the accused girl. Alice EN-
DRY, former private secretary of Greg
ory Shaw, who was found murdered
mysteriously in his home. In present
ing the case to the jury Deake Gilbert.
the prosecutor, explains the facts in
detail. and the evidence all points to
the guilt of the accused. The fore
man, homeward bound. assists Barbara
Frayne, a young horsewoman, and un-
willingly listens to a declaration on the
Emory case. Barbara believes Miss
Emory to be innocent. The foreman
visits the scene Of the murder. View
Ing the home from the outside. he over
hears Madeleine Mapes, the housekeep-
er. ~endeavoring to persuade Betty
Field, another servant, TO forget all
about a blue skirt she had seen the
former put in the furnace. At this mo-
ment Barstow's assistant, Mr.. Hunt,
visits the women in an effort to get
them TO leave the neighborhood where
their testimony might injure the ac-
cused. The trial opens. Lambert forces
valuable testimony from the architect
who had drawn the plans for the Shaw
house. Gilbert produces evidence that
forged Shaw checks were made out to
the order of Alice Emory. When court
~adjourns Lambert gets a message to
call up % Pollicet and is told by Miss
Frayne that she occupied Miss Emory's
room on the night of the murder and
that Miss Emory was not there. Soon
thereafter Lambert is approached in
a dark lane by a man who Lambert be-
lievcs is Barstow's assistant, Hunt, but
who calls himself Gilbert's assistant
and gives the name Corning. This man
tries to worm from Lambert his reason
for desiring to leave the jury, but fails.
Lambert meets the real Corning later.
Barstow requests a delay in the court
proceedings because of illness. and
Lambert, taking advantage of the re-
cess. plans to drive to Hefryville,
catching up to Miss Frayne on the
way after a chase. She is on her way
TO visit her friend, the prisoner, and
they continue on their separate jour
neys. Meeting Gilbert soon a~fterward,
Lambert is warned he shouldn't leave
for Hefryville without first consulting
the judge. Lambert ignores the warn
ing and plays the part of hero, with
Barbara q witness, by saving Miss
Mapes and Betty Field from what
looked like a runaway. The driver is
pitched off his seat and is badly hurt.
He proves to be Hunt in disguise. The
defendant is led into the court leaning
heavily on the arm of her lawyer.
Bayne, a juror. characterizes 1t as
s'sham" to Lambert. Examining DIR.
MacIean, Shaw's physician and friend,
Barstow ELECTS the testimony that
MacLean never saw Miss Emory sign
Shaw's name. The doctor repels the
%insinuation that his testimony is col
ored by the fact that the will he be-
lieves genuine leaves $4,000 to him.
Gilbert produces evidence to show
Shaw swore he was unmarried.
