SUEZ CANAL ZONE IS MADE
BARRIER AGAINST LNVA SION

the plants, which are on the wost bank
OF tho canal, under the canal, and Is
then pumped out TO the various sta
tons along the way. From the ends
OF tho lines the winter Is carried to
the outposts by camels. All told the
pipe lines now completed total over a
hundred miles.
In the territory between the outposts
and tho canal there are many well-laid
camps for thousands OF troops. Every
where there is intense but methodical
activity.
Neat Buildings.
Neatly built wooden and steel build
ings arc located whore only the Be-
douin's tent has stood before. Whist
ling locomotives and footing automo-
biles so rushing past long strings Of
heavily laden and slow-movlng camols
and donkeys. Khnki-clad Australian
and English soldiers, negro troops
from the Wost Indies, rObed and tur-
baned Egyptians. and Indians in their
native garb, work together, forming
an unusual picture with Its desert set
ting.
Health conditions arc said to DO OK
cellent, the percentage of sickness ay-
eraging about ono and onc-half per
cont. Few OF those in the hospitals
are seriously III. Certainly tho SOL
dlers look exceedingly 1T, and tho
same may DO said OF the animals.
Ono of the precautions taken for the
protection Of tho canal has been tho
flooding OF considerable tracts Of land
Aviators daily scout about the desert
and patrol boats continually pass up
and down the waterway. Further
measures have been instituted which
cannot be mentioned here.
OF tho operations in the west there
is little to be said. The work OF the
British troops who arc looking after
the Senussi trlbesmen now consists
largely Of patrol duty and there is
said to be no trouble OF consequence,
Military Law.
Tho maintenance Of martial law
necessltates the presence Of consider
able numbers OF troops throughout the
country for police duty. There APP
pears to be no disposition on the part
Of General Murray to interfere with
the customs and pursuits OF the poo-
pie except where necessary for the
welfare of the military operations
However, he is a stern dlsciplinarian
and one thing that no has devoted
much attention TO has been the stamp
ing out of various forms Of vice which
flourish in Egypt, AS result, It Is
said, that the moral tone Of the whole
country has been raised to higher
level. Many tributes OF respect for
General Murrays work are heard.
General Murray insists on personal
supervision of all his work. Thore
is no part Of the canal zone that he
does not know intimately and he
spends days at a time inspecting the
operations. He has his finger on every
detail and he is quick in decision on
all questions.
His plans for the remainder OF his
campaign are matter of much specu-
lation, however. Officers and men Of
ten look off into the desert and ask
one another If the commander ultl.
mately will lead them out to battle
with the Turks and reclaim this ter
rltory. But when the subject Is
preached the general merely smiles to
say:

Twenty-Six Years, Says
Wife in Statement.

REDLANDs, Calf, Oct IA state
ment that her late husband, Francis J.
Everett, apparently was James F.
Cowie, who disappeared twenty-six
years ago from his home in Fargus.
Falls, MIMI" was made by Mrs. Eliza
beth Everett. Cowie was at one time
law partner OF United States Senator
Moses e. Clapp, of Minnesota.
Mrs. Everett's statement followed the
filing in the superior court at San
Bernardino OF an answer to her suit
against the Standard Accident lnsur-
ance Company to collect 1880 insur-
ance. In it the company alleged Ev'
erett was Cowie and claimed Mrs.
Everett was not entitled to any bene-
fits under the policy for the reason
that Everett as Cowie left wife in
Fergus Falls, Mimi. and therefore
could not legally marry her in San
Bernardino county"
Everett was killed in an automobile
accident at Rialto, Calf. more than
a year ago. His body was eXhumed
and viewed by representatives Of the
insurance company some time after II
had been buried.
Mrs. Everett was married 10 Everett
here in June, 1895. She said she never
knew his past during their welded life,
but that after his death she learned
from relatives that his name was
Cowie."
In answer to the company that Ev-
crett as Cowie was not divorced from
his wife in Minnesota, Mrs. Everett
said, There must have been divorce

touchdown, but lost his footing and
fell. Before he could get up one of
the local players was on him. Fletch-

Cats are certainly, not SO demonstra-
tive az dogs; but, according to, many
cat loverA, they are quite as sagacious.
Archbishop Whately has recorded that
his mothers cat habitually rang the
bell whenever It wanted room door
opened. On the first occasion that
Pussy made her wish known in this
way the family had retired to bed.
I'm the middle Of the night" says
the archbishop, ''the parlor bell was
rung violently. The sleepers, startled
from their repose, proceeded down
stairs with poker and tongs to inter-
'cept, as they thought, the predatory
movements OF a burglar. But they
were equally surprised to find that the
ben was rung By Pussy, who frequent
II repeated the act wherever she
wished to get out Of the parlor."-Lon-

J, ~Rlues Murder.


The curieusly free use of the word
s'blue" In old saws and sayings invent
ed by our ancestors is apt to prove
nuzzling to us moderns.
why, for instance, ''blue murder?'
Why not "red murder" which GER
tainly seems moro appropriate?
The explanation is that blue was an
>ciently supposed to be the color OF
cowardice, and to 'tshout blue MUIR
der" therefore, came to be indicative
more Of unfounded terror than of real
danger.
Similarly a 'sblue funk means q
state Of utter, unreasoning and unrea-
sonable panic, and the expression a
.s1t Of the blues" indicates that the
person so suffering is in such depres-
sion Of spirits that he is inclined to
give up weakly the struggle against
fate. And everybody knows what
''blue'' Monday Is.
