ROUMANIANS CROSS
 THE DANUBE RIVER
CROSSING EFFECTED BETWEEN THE TOWNS OF RusTcHUk
 AND TURTUkA.

London.--Roumanian troops have crossed the Danube river and begun an invasion of Bulgaria The crossing was effected between the towns of Rustchuk and Turtuka, the latter place being where the Danube leaves Bulgarian territory and flows north west through Roumania. It is stra- tegic point and once formidable Ron- manian army has crossed here, 1t is anticipated that a drive toward the Bulgarian seaport of Varna will be be- gun.
 The object of such move would be to isolate the German, Bulgarian and Turkish troops operating against the Roumanians in the north. yarna. on the Black sea, is but 90 miles east Of Turtukai. It is BulgaIia's chief port and it's loss would be severe blow to the Central powers.
 The Roumanian statement telling of the crossing of the troops and the Ber- lin report admitting the invasion, do not offer any details. However, it seems logical that once across the riv- CT, the Roumanians will conduct wig orous campaign to carry the war on into Bulgarian territory.
 The Roumanian army, which was sadly defeated recently in Transyl- vania, has returned to the struggle in that region and is reported to have re- covered some of it's lost ground. The advance was made on both sides of the Kukel river. Further west, in the vicinity of Orsova and near Petroseny, tho Austro-Hungarians have taken po- sitions from the Roumanians.
 Roumanian forces also have made a fresh attack along the entire front in Dobrudja and are reported by Buchar- est to have forced back the enemy cen ter and right flank.

BRITISH LOSSES ON
 SOMME ARE 3O7,l69
CASUALTIES ON ALL FRONTS FOR MONTH OF SEPTEMBER
 WERE 1f9,54e.

London-British losses in Septem- Der were at the rate of more than B. 800 day. The casualties on all fronts reported in this month were: Officers 5,439, men HALO.
 Heavy as were the British losses in September. they were lighter than those of August, which were 127,945, 8 daily average of 4,127. In July, the first month of the Somme offensive, the losses were about half those of August or September, notwithstand- ing the fact that in July the British stormed the first line German de lenses. The casualties in that month were 59,675, so that the total for the three months of the Somme drive is 307,16
 French and English press dispatches report that, considering the charac- ter of the fighting, the losses of the allies on the Somme are low. German reports dwell on the large losses with which it is said the allies are meet ing, which are declared to be out of all proportion to the ground gained. The Overseas News Agency estimates that the combined French and Brit ish losses in the Somme battle up to September 15 amounted to about 500,- GOO.
 Since January 2S the British gov ernment has issued no figures of to- tai losses. Up to that time the daily average of losses from the beginning of the war was slightly more than 1,000

It stopped at last, abruptly, tragically, and Destinn lifted his head as though released from a hypnotic trance. A little group of men in white drill uni forms were crossing the courtyard. They were carrying something between them-something that fought and struggled.
 Colonel nestinn's eyes were fixed on the broad red line which ran from north to south, past carefully marked towns and villages, through white spaces of open plain skirting broad waterways and low-ridged mountains, to the immense yellow bank where it ended abruptly, like some proud thought that had come to nothing Colonel Destinn bent lower, his brows contracted in impatient bitterness With red pencil he struck off an inch of the great line and marked it with 8 cross. The place of the seven hundred dead.
 The door opened again. He did moi hear it. His knuckles were pressed against his forehead, as though crush Ing back an intolerable recollection Only as he was addressed by name he started and glanced back over his shoulder.
 "I must apologize, Colonel Destinn l ventured to come In unannounced The sentry appears to regard me as one of the family with the right to come and go as I please"
 You have earned the privilege Pray be seated"
 The visitor came slowly, haltingly across the room. He came to the table, but did not accept the proffered chair. He stood in an attitude of listless ex- haustion, his hands clasped on the heavy walking-stiek, his face with its almost unearthly transparency half turned to the inpouring sunshine.
 T was in the Arab quarter last night, Colonel Destinn. Ali-Mahomed's $ brother heads fresh rising. There will be an attack from the north. The Arabs in the town are arming stealth fly, but they will only move if there has been success outside"
 Colonel Destinn nodded.
 "That is interesting. If your infor- nation is correct, we shall have further cause to be grateful to you. MT. Lowe"
 Tt is probably one of the last serv- ices l shall be able to render, Colonel

down. It was a curious, terrible thing to see this man, who had brazened out death and every law of humanity. reel with the shaking foundations of his secret temple. You gave your son his life" Lowe went on quietly. You have ruined 1t. Tn 8 few hours 1t may finally be taken from him. 1t lies in your power to give him back that life and the conditions which make it worth the living. Have you not-as l have-some sense of atonement2"
 "Atonement-you"
 Lowe bowed his head in grave depre- cation.
 q am blackmailing scoundrel. and quite ruthless-as you have been and are. But I understand atonement. Moreover, you know that I am not lying-and that what I promise to do I will do"
 Colonel Destinn turned and crossed the room. Lowe waited composedly. without triumph He saw Destinn take a key from the inner pocket of his dol man and insert it in the lock of the small iron safe let into the wall. He came back moment later with sheaf of transparent paper in his hand. He swayed slightly.
 "These are-the plans" Lowe made a little movement of as surance.
 Consider! A friendly power" Destinn laughed under his breath. Very deliberately he tore the delicate paper across and across. Mot that" he said under his breath, mot that. My son-would not desire that" There was a silence. Stephen Lowe glanced curiously and little bitterly at the white shreds futtering through the sunlight, and then for the last time at the peaceful face of the man beside him.
 "You may be right" he said. "It is quite possible that you are right. But I am not made like that. Colonel Des- tinn."
 He went out, closing the door softly after him.

Washington Whether govern ment gasoline standard can be estab- lished to safeguard consumers is be- ing considered by Department of Com merce officials who have received many complaints that dealers in va rious cities have diluted the product to such point as to greatly lower it's value. Secretary Redfield says the do- partment will go as far as possible toward stopping the practice.

Destinn. I am retiring from the service" "France will be the loser" Stephen Lowe did not speak for 8 moment. He was gazing fixedly and apparently indifferently at the great map spread out on the table before him.
 q wish to retire rich man, Colonel Destinn"
 Destinn looked up into the keen sig nificant eyes.
 "You are very persistent, MT. Lowe, " he said.
 Stephen Lowe leaned forward; his frail body emanated sudden power and the knowledge of power.
 q do not know. My offer is not the old offer, Colonel Destinn. It's not money. As a French officer and a naturalized Frenchman, you never can offer your invention to another na- tion"
 "There is a man who will inherit it my son."
 "Tomorrow you may have no son."
 Destinn made a single gesture-the instinctive, upward movement of a man seeking to protect the face from a sudden blow.
 My son is in England; he is with his regiment"
 If you had accepted my second offer you would know that he resigned his commission over a year ago. He did SO at Sower's request-to save your honor" He waited moment, study ing the livid immobile features with a pitying interest. The iron mask was

CHAPTER xxx.
Fate Decides.

Eatc 0CCtUGSs Destiny had decreed that Desire Ar | maud should die. He was in his room now, dying quietly and unostentatious- | ly, from the brain downward" as the | doctor had explained to Madame Ar maud with extreme gentleness, and had been deeply moved by the manner of | it's reception. She had not cried or | tainted She had looked at him with l her warm brown eyes, and had given him her hand with quiet dignity.
 ssIt is the will of God, doctor" He had admired her immensely, and she had admired herself. 'srhe will of Godr' It was beautiful and simple, and it was wonderful to find that in spite of modern skepticism all things | work out for the best for those who surrender themselves to the unseen guidance.
 | And now this woman was here-th1s woman in the pale gray dress, with the brown hair and small dead-white face, out of which the eyes burned with a fierce consuming energy and purpose
 Mrs. Farquhar lies stricken with total paralysis" Gabrielle Smith said. "She cannot speak to me, but can read her eyes. She is asking for her son. Madame Arnaud, you have inf1u- ence with Colonel Destinn. You can set Richard Farquhar free. You can atone"
 "Atonew It seemed incredible, ridiculous. It was tactless. Above all, it brought storm into her peace. Yet she remained gentle-very calm.
 ''You ask me to intervene at a strange moment for a strange cause, Miss Smith," she said. My husband is dying"
 "And the man who saved him?
 Sylvia glanced toward the curtained doorway and laid her finger gently to her lips.
 Flush, you must not talk so loud. My husband is sleeping. And then am sorry-I can do nothing. Should I be justified in trying? Your-feeling blinds you, Miss Smith. cannot, even for the memory of girlhoods friend ship, take up arms-risk perhaps hu- initiation and misunderstanding for man who sold his country for a woman"
 "Mr. Preston is in i-bel-Abbes," :" was the answer. MT. Preston knows that Richard chose the appearance of dishonor to save your husband-your happiness, Madame Arnaud."
 Sylvia recoiled the step she had taken. Her hands were pressed to her face.
 If that were true" But she did not ask a question. She knew that it was true. It was pitiable-terrible- beautiful. Her whole soul seemed to expand beneath it's beauty. There had been no "other woman" in his life only the one-Sylvia Arnaud, for whom he had sacrificed his honor, his name, his place. And now 1t was for her to act and to use her power nobly-to re- gain the ground lost on that fatal eve ning-to win back the holy place in his life. Suddenly she held out her hands.
 Gabrielle, forgive mer' she said gently, and there were tears gathering on her long lashes. T must have seemed hard-wicked. I did not un- derstand. had not your love-or the faith that love gives. I saw only dis honor-and sometimes we who stand outside the stress of life judge very harshly."
 But you knew him." was the stern reproach.
 T was child, Gabrielle. Can't you understand? Will you. too, judge harshly?"
