In the Desert.

In the Desert.
Convinced against her will, as she
hurried along in the grasp OF the two
powerful men, that compliance would
serve her purpose better than resist
ance, Kitty Gray took her place on the
seat of the motor car.
More and more admire you," said
the man at her side, as the motor
swung into it's speed What wom-
an you are! II you would but give
me time"
"You shall have all the time you
ask, Monsieur lie Comte,"
"Still, l ponder as to your motive in
all this. 1t cannot be money
Indeed it is money-in part"
How much, mademoiselle?"
"A years salary have got much
at stake, on my word. Twelve hun
dred dollars, Monster lie Comte. 1t is
a fortune for me-"
Count Frederick flung himself back
upon the cushions and laughed long
and loud. Twelve hundred dollars!"
said he. Twelve hundred dollars in
whole year, in an entire year? My
dear, give me the half coin you have
upon you, and | promise you shall
have twelve thousand dollars to spend
as you like each and every day Of your
life, as long as you live. Come now,
is 1t trade? You said you came to

about her, scarce having realized how
long their journey had been. So
great had been their speed that by
this time they had cleared the city
walls of Gretzhoffen and passed the
titled farmlands Of the villages. 1t
was what was known locally as the
dasert-a neutral ground, not titled
and incapable of successful tillage,
which lay between the two kingdoms
Of Gretzhoffen on the east and Grahof-
fen on the west.
Whether 1t was the heat OF the sun
which had expanded the air in the mo-
tor tires, or whether there was some
sharp stone under the wheel, there
was no time to determine; yet sudden
ly, with the usual riflelike report,
there was an explosion of the tire.
The car was practically helpless.
Kitty looked about her vaguely,
fearfully, but as she bent from the
open window she heard in the dis
lance the chug of another motor, driv-
en- rapidly, thrown wide open and
coming forward at great speed,
Quick, Grahame," the count de-
handed. This is your work She
has 1t on her person. You must-yes,
you must take it at once"
AS he laid hand upon her, all the
hot indignation of Kitty's soul famed
up. She battled as best she might

saw suspended about her neck. His

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-That
government ownership of rail-
ways will be the issue in the
presidential campaign of 1916 is
a growing conviction in political
circles here. The collapse of the
interstate commerce commission
has contributed to this feeling.
Since the commission granted the
railroads increased freight rates
on the mere plea that they, with
others, were suffering from hard
times and needed money, It is
conceded that the shipping public
and the consuming public will
have no further confidence in the
commission as regulative pow
er, and that the only alternative
Is government ownership.
The situation has been accentu-
atcd by the demand by the west
ern railroads that they partici-

The Real
ABRAHAM LINCOLN

Immediately after his nomination
for the presidency in May, 1860.
General Banks, then Governor of
Massachusetts, sent Barry, the noted
American portrait painter, to Spring
field, ILL.,, where he spent ten days at
Lincoln's home, studying the tenn
permanent, moods and features of this
remarkable man of destiny under
many conditions and at all angles.
He studied Lincoln in action, studied
him In repose, studied his mental
processes, and studied his very hearts
emotions; and then the great artist
stamped the soul and character OF
the man into this portrait. Never
more accurately, never more charm
ingly did pencil and brush catch the
true spirit of the subject than the
brush OF this master of portraiture.
When IL was finished Lincoln pro-
nounced ID perfect likeness. 1t IL

TO USE KINDNESS IN MEXICO
lowed by Pacification Moves
Presidents Plan.

Washington, May 31.-President
Wilson on Friday issued an appeal to
the American public to relieve the
general distress and suffering in Mex
leo caused by famine conditions.
Coincident with the issuance of the
presidents appeal an authoritative an
nouncement was made at the White
House that the president may in
few days issue a statement ION the
present situation in Mexico"
In the public action of the presi-
dent and his promised statement
friends close to him see the import
ant purpose of solving the whole
Mexican situation by winning the
hearts of the people of Mexico by
generous help.
The great gratitude now being mani
tested toward the government of the
United States and its people by the
rulers and the starving millions of Bel
GUM and Poland has led the admins
tration to hope that a similar feeling
of friendship may be created in Mexico
by similar service.

NAMES ON WORKS OF ART
Men of Genius Have Not Always
Signed Productions That Will
Live Forever.

1t appears that many of the works
of the old masters are not signed.
Experts rarely rely on signatures
alone in determining the authenticity
of an old work, but trust rather to
their knowledge of the painters
technic. says the Philadelphia Rec
ord
False signatures can be easily de-
tected. Spirits Of wine or turpentine
will usually remove a name of later
date than the painting. In the course
of time signatures often become very
difficult to find Painted originally in
shade slightly lighter than the
ground, perhaps, they sink in, dark
en-, and merge into the ground color
or they are almost rubbed away by
successive cleanings. Recognizable
one day in a specially favorable light,
they may not be visible again for
weeks.
Experts speak of ''will-o'the-wisp"
signatures, and many collectors have
encountered accidental strokes and
signature, though it can never be
made definite. On the other hand,
there have been remarkable cases Of
such marks, after careful study, re
solving themselves into famous
name.
Sometimes the painters name is
most CONSPICUOUS, as, for example, in
Raphaels "Sposalizio" at Milan.
Proud of having surpassed his mas
ter, the youthful genius wrote on
frieze in the very center of the can
vas, Raphael Urbinas."
Reynolds hardly ever signed his
work. But upon the completion Of
the portrait of Mrs. Siddons as the
Tragic Muse, he wrote his name large
on the gold embroidery of her dress
He was unable, he said, Ito resist
the temptation of sending my name
to posterity on the hem of your gar
ment."

Austrian Mobs Wreck italian Shops

Sends 10000 Troops to Aid Allies
at DardaneIIes.

Geneva, May 31-The Italians are
continuing their advance into Ca
rinthia. They have taken three of the
lower mountain passes and fourteen
villages.
The Italian army which is driving
toward Trieste has occupied the Aus
trian port city of Grade, on the Gulf
of Trieste, only 25 miles from Trieste,
it is officially given out by the Italian
war Office at Rome.
A squadron of Italian aeroplanes,
that crossed the northern end of the
Adriatic sea, successfully bombarded
the Trieste-Nebresina railway on the
night of May 1921, destroying part of
the line and seriously Gripping troop
and supply movements Of the Aus
trians.
Violent artillery duels are in prog
Tess among the Alpine mountains on
the Tyrol and Trentina boundaries.
The Italian army of occupation be-
tween the Idria and Isonzo rivers is
increasing the extent of captured Aus
trian territory. Many prisoners have
been taken, and at some points the
inhabitants received the invading Ital-
ians with cordial expressions Of fra
ternity.
The detailed report of the COM
mander of the italian destroyer Zaf-
fire, which bombarded Porto Buso, on
the Gulf Of Trieste, says that the de-
stroyer entered the port unseen and
destroyed the barracks and steamship
landing. Lieutenant Marck, comman-
der of the garrison, hoisted the white
flag and surrendered with his men.
Italy has begun the transportation
of troops to take part in the forcing
of the Dardanelles, according to dis
patches reaching London. Although
no declaration of war has been issued
against the Turks, 10000 Italian
troops have been landed On the Island
of Rhoades, in the Aegean sea, to
use that position as a base from which
to aid the allies on the Gallipoli PENN
sula.
Austrian mobs in Trieste have
wrecked the Italian shops and houses.
Many Italians were victims of the
mob's violence. The authorities are
reported to have fed the town.
