and closed his eyes again. X. had for
hidden the white screens. that outward
symbol OF death. Time enough for
them later. So the ward had no sus-
pIcIon. nor had the boy. The ward
passed In review. II was Sunday, and
from the chapel far below came the
faint singing OF hymn. When Johnny
spoke again he did not open his eyes.

And so Johnny Rosenfeld paid.
The immediate result of his death
was that X, who had gained some Of
his faith In himself on seeing Wilson
on the way to recovery, was beset by
his old doubts. And now came ques-
ton that demanded immediate answer.
Wilson would be out Of commission for
several months, probably. He was

DISTRICT TROOPS ON
BORDER TO GET PAID
Boys Expect to Get Money for
Time Before Going Into Fed
eraI Service.

WARREN. Ariz.. July 3l.-Another
pay day is looming UP on the horizon
for the District boys encamped here.
The first harbinger OF pay day is Ser
geant Hart starting to make up the
pay rolls. Sergeant Hart has started.
The reason for the ferved anticipa-
ton Of pay day lies in the fact that
it is expected there will be some ex-
ira pay doled out this time. The
boys here did not get paid for the
time they were in camp before they
were mustered into the Federal serv-
ice. They have ben promised that the
pay for this period will be added TO
the July pay.
Things were quiet here yesterday.
The members of the Signal Corps and
the Field Hospital attended church
services in Bisbee. where Chaplain
Adolph ]. Schliesser. OF the Twenty
second United States Infantry, held
services.
The court-martial of the six mem
bers Of the District militia caught in
Mexico last Sunday again has been
delayed. This time II Is because the
arrival Of Brig. Gen. Tasker II. Bliss
has caused all the OFFICERS to have
other duties. General Bliss reached

Government officials are inclined to
see In the blacklist the allies preliminary
step In trade war against Germany.
which was clearly outlined at the Econ
omic Conference at Paris some weeks
ago.
The necessity Of keeping clear Of "the
war after the war;" and of showing
England that the United States as a
neutral will not participate In nor allow
herself to become victim Of any such
movement. is understood to have been
the underlying reason for the American
blacklist protest.
Makes No Demand.
While President Wilson's protest Is an
emphatic expression of general disap-
prevail of the blacklist. Il contains no
dennlte demand or request for redress.

can firms may be made to suffer.
The British action Is characterized as
Inconsistent with that true Justice. sin
which should characterize the dealings

From the American viewpoint tho fea-
ture Of the note is it's peppery langusg 60
extolling the sanctity of American
rights In a manner sufficient to satisfy
the Presidents political supporters who
have been perslstently urging him to
twist the lions tall for campaign
purposes.
Asks Nothing of England.
Diplomats here take the view that
Great Britain cannot answer satisfac-
tortly. as nothing is asked for and no
indication is given Of what this Govern
mont expects.
The British ambassador here has ad-
mitted that the blacklist would be disas-
trous to American and British trade
alike II Its scope was not narrowed to
Mt specific cases. and he likewise ex-
planned that American firms dealing
with blacklisted firms would not be at
fected on this account.
Informally the State Department ex.
pressed qualification to the Ambassador
for these assurances. but II is pointed
out that the Presidents note Ignores
AL that Sir Cecil promised and pro-
ceeds to generalize on threatened mem
aces to American trade resulting from
the wide scope Of the blacklist order.
