 Meanwhile at the south portal of the Lady Veronica mines there is excitement and alarm.

 It was pay day at Mammoth Mammoth, as Peter Huff would say, was some burg! Mr Huff should have known; he the proprietor of "Pete's Palace" the amusement and public accommodation en- terprise at Mammoth. It a dance hall and a barroom and a restaurant combined. Money flowed like water at Mammoth. which in the center of the newly opened mines in the mountains where John Powell and other magHates were putting in more money than perhaps they ever would get out.
 But things were at lull when Frank Durand arrived. He had received word from some underground source that sev- eral of the train robbers who had escaped after the hold-up in which the diamond from the sky was taken from a woman passen r-Vivian-cOnsOrted at Pete's Palace a Mammoth. A few sig gns in the underworld fraterna1 code and Pete and Durand were in conference. A few words overheard by a hulking gypsy fellow at the bar and third person was party to the conversation. This person was Luke Lowell, who, retracing his steps in search of work, had encountered at Mammoth the wander ing desert Indian. In him Luke had proof to substantiate to Durand his story of the diamond.

 Mammoth would seem a magnet that draws together many concerned in this strange story. From two worn horses alight Esther and Quabba, tired and hungry. Pete's Palace is getting crowded now. but it Is the only place in miles that offers refreshments for man and beast and some of the men are beasts.

It is a woman known as Kansas Elm who seizes and reads the paper, calling for silence. which falls in Q great dramatic hush. She reads:
 "Oh. child of my heart! Not a diamond. but a loving mothers prayer. is the true charm against harm""
 Even a life of shame cannot stamp out the feminine desire for decency and the wOmanly obsesson to protect the innocent and the motherless. A Quiver shakes Kansas Elm. " Two great tears streak the paint upon her sallow cheeks. She turns in fury upon her boss and master.
 This Is a mothers prayer-this Iocket is that poor girls"
 As though this were a signal at which all demonaic passions were to break loose, the dance hall viragos. in a psychological out burst of emotion and frenzied anger sprang upon the proprietor of the place and all his bullies scratching, biting like valkyres. For one brief moment Arthur and Esther gazed into each others eyes, and for the first and, alas. for the last time for many bitter days were clasped in each others arms And then. the chronclers of the combat that followed will tell you. "hell really broke looser'
 Instinctively all took sides. the good ele- ment against the bad. and even the better element of the bad against the worst. Esther and Arthur were torn apart; men and women fought like maniacs with hands and feet and teeth; every article that could be lifted and smashed was thrown struck with. The lunch counter went over with 9 crash the bar toppled and fell, and then the surge of the crowd. as a wave of the combat drove it to side, tore out the west wall of the ricketty frame building. ana down smashed the roof. crushing all beneath it. and beneath 1t was Arthur stan ley shattered to insensibility.

Jealousies of Good Folks

Tbe'oood people of this world are most of them not
yet wholly good.
A great many church people, and even preachers,
are still subject the temptations OF the flesh and the
devil
One of these temptations is to be jealous when some
body else does something for the Lord.
We read in the Scripture that two OF the disciples
came esus in high state OF excitement and SAID LORD
we found one casting out devils and forbade him be-
cause he followed not US But Christ rebuked them and
said they should be glad have devils cast out no mat
ter who did it.
SO is today that when one church. or institution
seems to be succeeding in the Lords work. others who
suppose themselves be servants OF the same master nd
fault and put stumbling blocks in the way.
true Christian is glad to have God work done no
matter who does it.

j. S. EMBARGO ON
MEXICAN ARM S
No More Shipments Into villa
Territory.

Ell Paso, Texas, Oct 12.-There has
been put into effect an embargo on
the expectation of arms to any terri
tory controlled by villa or his asso-
ciates.
At Nogales and Douglas, Ariz., the
customs collectors were not as secre-
tive as the local collector and openly
admitted that an embargo was on. The
searching OF all the transportation
passing to Mexico was undertaken and
several attempts to get arms over the
line were frustrated at Nogales.
While no direct orders were issued
at El Paso to the effect that an EN-
barge was on, II was admitted In
local official circles that no arms had
been exported to Juarez this week and
that II an application should be made
to send arms over 1t would be held up.
/ Orders from the state department
are said to have been sent to Ameri'
can Consul Marion Letcher at Chihua

district to leave Mexico at once. In

HUNT FOR STOLEN JEWELRY
Reward Of 5000 Offered For Gems
Stolen at Manchester, Mass.

fered for the return of the $4,000
worth of jewelry stolen from the sum-
mer residence of Mrs. James Mcmillan
at Manchester,
The offer was made in advertise
ments and II is evident that the in.
surance brokers fear that some OF the
jewelry has already been broken up
and disposed of is indicated by the
statement that a suitable reward will
be paid for the return of any part OF
the property.
The brokers had placed $4,000 in
surance on the gems owned by Mrs
Mary Mcmillan, but not all OF II was
in the safe and therefore was not
stolen. One thing that did go was a
diamond necklace worth $4,000.

Berlin Reports Gains In Servia.

London. Oct. 12.-After storming
and occupying Belgrade. the Austro-
German army began its march south
along the Orient railway and have
captured the strategic heights be-
tween Zarkowo and Mirijewo.
DISPATCHES from German sources
respecting the occupation of Belgrade
Indicate that the resistance offered by
the Serbs there, while not OF con-
certed character, was nevertheless ex-
tremely stubborn and of a kind to
cause heavy losses to the invaders.
The main body of the army OF In

In Serbian territory at four points
near Semendria, east Of Belgrade, had
completed it's crossing of the Danube,
according to Berlin. This force, which
is the right arm OF the armies intended
for the conquest of Serbia, is said to
be equipped with unprecedented guam
titles Of heavy artillery, which makes
as q battering ram equivalent only to
the enormous forces sent against the
Russians in Galicia last spring when
the great German campaign against
Russia began.
While the armies of the Danube at
ssmendria and Of the Save at Bel
grade, have made good their footing
on Servian soil. It would appear, how
ever. that the forces sent against
Serbia on the Drina front are meeting
with effective resistance.
The German attempts to retake the
ground won from them by the British
and French troops in the vicinity OF
Loos--attempts In which enormous
numbers OF men have been sacrificed
have failed completely. After sew
eral days OF almost constant fighting
between 1000 and 5000 German sol
diers lie dead, and 10000 wounded In
front OF the positions which the
French and British forces captured In
this vicinity during the recent battles.
In Champagne, where the French
troops are still driving ahead. gains OF
the first consequence were made. The
entire German defense work southeast
of Tahure was captured by brilliant
assault. Progress was northeast OF
the village During the fighting at
La Grouette ravine, eight hundred
German soldiers were made prisoners.

pires continue TO advance into Servia.

SUIT TO PREVENT
war INVESTMENT
Filed Against Mutual Life In
surance Company.

Chicago. Oct. 12.-With the allega-
tion that the Mutual Life Insurance
company OF New York is about to in
vest $1O,000,000 of its trust funds in
the Anglo French loan of 100000, 900,
Olga II. s. Walsh, Chicago, holder Of a
81, 900 insurance policy in the Mutual
fled suit for an Injunction in the fed
eral court here.
The complaint to the court which
was filed by Mrs. Walsh in person sets
forth that among the thousands OF
policy holders in the Mutual Life In
surance company are many persons
OF various nationalities, and that the
investment OF the trust funds OF these
policy holders in the AngloFrench
loan would tend to produce antagon-
isms among the policy holders, which
might lead to disrupting the company
and thereby depreciate the value OF
her interest in the company.
The bill asks that the officers Of
the company be restrained from di-
rectly or indirectly investing its trust
funds in the loan or from investing its
trust funds or suffering any of its as
sets to be used for the purpose OF aid
ing the manufacture OF munitions OF
war, aeroplanes. submarines or any
naval OUTFIT or appliances TO be used
by the English or French nations for
belligerent purposes.
The bill alleges that 20 per cent OF
the policy holders Of the company are
Germans and German-Americans.

Service Men Kept on the Jump.
Washington, Oct 12.-What was re-
garded as a gallant compliment to his
finance, uttered by President Wilson
in his speech on National Unity at
the Continental hall was applauded by
the Daughters OF the American Revo-
luton.
In that part of his speech in which
he served notice that he proposes to
administer the discipline Of public dis
approval to hyphenated Americans,
the president remarked: II know OF
no body of persons comparable to
body of ladies for creating an atmos-
phere OF opinion"
Immediately after he said smilingly:
81 have myself, in part. yielded to the
influence of that atmosphere"
The presidents hearers just would
not believe that he had had the suf-
frage issue in mind when he began
his sentence. and Mrs. Gait herself
blushed prettily in recognition OF the
applause.
Mrs. Gait, with her mother and Miss
Helen Woodrow Bones, had driven to
Continental hall in one OF the White
House autos. The president walked
over, accompanied by his military aide,
Colonel Hart, and the secret service
men. Before he left the White House
he had stood for several minutes lean
ing over the side of the auto, having
a pleasant tete-atete with Mrs. Gait.
Curious persons passing through the
White House grounds thought 1t a
very interesting sight to observe the
president of the United States stand
ing with one foot on the step Of an
automobile, talking to a lady. They
got the impression from the animated
character Of the conversation between
the two that Mrs. Gait was disappoint
ed because the president was not go
/ ing to escort her to Continental hall
and that she was trying to persuade
him to abandon his plan Of walking
over.
President Wilson's impetuousity al
bridegroom to be is keeping the sc
cret service men on the jump nearl,
all the time More frequently thar
he ever done in the past, the presiden
leaves the White House unattended
and without giving warning to hi
bodyguards. He did this when HI
started for Mrs. Galt's residence
where he was to be a dinner guest
and again when he walked down towI
to purchase a new travelling bag.
Society people are as much interest
ed as ever in the plans of the couple
but little has been learned definitel,
as yet. No disclosure was made o
the date of the wedding and simila
secrecy has been maintained as I,
their honeymoon plans. It is know
that the Misses Smith of New Orleans
relatives of the president, are urginI
that the honeymoon be spent at Pas
Christian, Miss, where Mr.. Wilson an
his family spent the Christmas holi
days two years ago.
Congratulations Of the suprem
court on his engagement we're extend
ed the president when the suprem
court called formally to pay thei
respects on the occasion of the cor
vening of the court for the fall sit
tings. The justices were received 4

WHAT OUR SMALL ARMY COSTS

Our army is but fourteen per
cent the size OF the French army,
yet costs us more than twice as
much. IL is but thirteen per cent
as large as the German army and
costs over half as much. II is but
seven per. cent as large as the army
OF Russia and costs thirty-seven per
cent as much. Our army costs us
1900 per capita, while no Euro
pean country pays as much as $500.
Naval figures reach almost the same
proportions.
We look with considerable wonder
and admiration upon the great guns
which protect New York harbor.
