CHAPTER TX.
The Fortunes of War.

Sabron's departure had been de- l layed on account of a strike at the dockyards of Marseilles. He left Tarascon one lovely day toward the end of January and the old town with its sweetness and it's sorrow, fell be- hind, as he rolled away to brighter suns. A friend from Paris took him to the port in his motor and there Sabron waited some forty-eight hours before he set sail. His boat lay out on the azure water, the brown rocks of the coast behind it. There was not a breeze to stir as he took the tug which was to convey him. He was inclined to dip his fingers In the indigo ocean, sure that he would find them blue. He climbed up the ladder alongside of the vessel, was welcomed by the cap tain, who knew him, and turned to go below, for he had been suffering from an attack of fever which now and then laid hold of him, ever since his cam paign in Morocco.
 Therefore. as he went into his cabin. which he did not leave until the steam CT touched Algiers, he failed to see the baggage tender pull up and failed to see sailor climb to the deck with wet bedraggled thing in his hand that looked like an old fur cap except that it wriggled and was alive.
 This, mon commandant," said the sailor to the captain, lis the pluckiest little beast l ever saw"
 He dropped small terrier on the deck, who proceeded to shake himself vigorously and bark with apparent de- light
 No sooner had We pushed out from the quay than this little beggar sprang from the pier and began to swim after us. He was so funny that we let him swim for bit and then we hauled him in. It is evidently mascot, mon com mandant, evidently sailor dog who has run away to sea.
 The captain looked with interest at Pitchoune, who engaged himself in making his toilet and biting after a flea or two which had not been drowned.
 "Ne sailors" said the man saluting. would like to keep him for luck. mon commandant."
 Take him down then" his superior officer ordered. and don't let him up among the passengers"
 
 It was a rough voyage. Sabron passed his time saying good-by to France and trying to keep his mind away from the Chateau d'Esclignac. which persisted in haunting his uneasy slumber. Tn a blaze of sunlight, Al giers, the white city, shone upon them on the morning of the third day and Sabron tried to take more cheerful view of a soldiers life and fortunes.
 He was soldierly figure and hand some one as he walked down the gang plank to the shore to be welcomed by fellow officers who were eager to see him, and presently was lost in the lit tie crowd that streamed away from the docks into the white city.

With More Than 900 Lives
Destroyed By a German
Submarine.
RUSSIANS CONTINUE RETREAT
There Is Little Doing On The
Other Battle Fronts
This Week.

London, Aug. 18.-The sinking in
the Aegean Sea by German subma-
rine of the British transport Royal
Edward with heavy loss of life has.
shattered the proud tradition of the
British navy having transported
hundreds..of thousands of men across
the sea without the destruction Of
one troop.laden ship.
On two previous occasions trans
ports have been attacked The Way
farer was torpedoed by a submarine
in the Irish Sea, but the vessel was
not sunk and only five lives were
lost. The Climatou was attacked by
Turkish torpedo boat in the Aeg-
can Sea and although the ship was
not damaged, fifty-four lives
we're lost through the breaking of q
davit as boat was being lowered.
The loss of the Royal Edward is a
serious one at this moment. Six
hundred men were saved out of l.
$50 troops and 220 other persons on
board.
Following the announcement by
Berlin of the capture of important
forts just south of Kovno, together
with a large number of prisoners
and 240 cannon, Vienna asserts that
the Austro. Hungarian troops have
advanced to Dobrynka, thirteen
miles southwest of Brest-Litovss ,
and that the Austrian Archd-ks
Joseph Ferdinand is advancing to
Janow, about twenty miles north
west Of the fortress. The capture OF
these two points seemingly would
dangerously threaten the fortress,
which it has been asserted Grand
Duke Nicholas purposed to make one
of the strong points in his new line
of defense.
The Italians, according to tele-
grams from Rome, have commenced
another general offensive against the
Austrisns, but there has been nc
news of moment from any of the
other fronts.

The manner IN which Frank met
his death is disgrace to the state
ofGeorgia. 1t is all the more open to
condemnation because he had just
recovered from an attempt to assas-
sinate him inside the walls of the

or innocence is not an issue. The
fact that the man, convict though
he was, should have been murdered
without any show of resistance, on
