Kuva went to the cellar and lifted
fiat stone that was hidden under
the earth, then he let himself down
and dropped the stone over him.
Nala's wife waited until the next
day. when Kuva was at the castle,
and, going to the cellar, she lifted the
stone and let herself down into the
hole as Kuva had done.
Then she lighted candle she car
ried and looked about; all was black
and damp, but ahead she saw door.
This she tried to open. but it was
locked, and the brave women won
dered how she would be able to see
what was on the other side of that
door, when she saw spot on the
door that looked darker than the
other spots of dampness, and she ran
her. finger over it.
Instantly the door opened, and the
brave woman saw within shelves filed
with bags. When she opened them
she found they were filed with gold,
and she knew she had found the
Kings gold. But how was she to get
the King there to see it, for she knew
to tell him would only mean that
Kuva would be accused by the King,
and tell him that she was accusing
him to free her husband, and the
gold would be removed before the
King could see it. The next night,
when Kuva went into the cellar and
went down into the hole, Nala's wife
followed, and when Kuva let down the
stone she pulled big iron chest over
the stone. OF course, Kuva could

"Your Majesty, it Is plain to be
seen that Nala has your gold; seize
him, implore you. before he escapes.
After he has been In prison a while,
he will you where he has hidden
the gold, am SURE"
Nala was too much ast0nished to
make any resistance, and SO the sol
diers took him OF. to prison, and every
day he was visited by the King and
asked to tell where the gold was hid
den.
But as poor Nala did not steal it,
he could not tell, and so day after day
he stayed there until at last 1t was
year, and the King had given up
visiting him.
But Nala's wife knew her husband
was not the thief, and she did not
dare say this to the King lest she,
too, should be cast into prison, and
so end all chances of ever clearing
the good name of her husband.
Now it happened that Kuva's wife
was taken i'll, and Nala's wife dis
guised herself as nurse and took
care of her, that she might better
watch the movements of Kuva.
One night when the house was still
and Kuva thought every one slept
but himself, he took candle and
went into the cellar of his house.
But Nala's wife was awake, and
followed him; she dressed herself in
black, so she could easily hide, and
her face was covered with black
mask as well.

and the man who watched by night
was called Nala.
One night Nala thought he had bet
ter look into the vaults and see that
his masters treasures were safe, and
when he did he was shocked to find
that all the gold had disappeared.
Frightened half out Of his wits,
Nala rushed to the King and awaken
ed him In the middle Of the night to
tell him what had happened.
The King jumped out of his bed,
and throwing over his shoulders an
ermine cape hurried into the vaults
under the castle sure that Nala must
be out of his senses. But he found
the gold gone just as Nala had said.
Then Kuva was called and was told
what had happened, and Nala wept
and said: "Oh! Kuva, we are ruined;
the gold is gone, and we are the only
guards. What shall we do?"
What shall we do?" repeated
Kuva. pray, do not say we, my dear

come out Of the hole, and SO he had to
remain there
Then Nala's wife went to the King
and told him II he would take ser
want and come with her she would
show him where his gold was hidden.
OF course, the King thought that
Nala's wife was giving up the gold

with her, but was surprised when she

Odanah, Wis.,, Sept. 3O.-That
the American Indian is not deteri-
Grating, is the deduction made
from the examination of Indian
babies at the Bad River fair here
this week, in connection with the
Indian baby show.
Twenty-Five Chippewa babies
were measured, weighed, CALI
pered and were given rigid physi-
cal tests by DR.. Dell Andrus, as
sisted by another doctor and five
professional nurses. The, report
of the examiners is that the sub.
jects average better than the white
babies, who were examined at a
recent baby show at Ashland.
The winning female baby is
Wanema Dennis, a quarter-blood
Chippewa, s months old, whose
mother was Charlotte Brissette of
Red Cliff reservation, and whose
facher is Ben Dennis of the Bad
River reservation.
The winning male baby is Darle-
ton Francis James, aged 4 months,
a quarter-blood Chippewa, whose
mother is Menominie Indian
Lizzie Martin), and whose father
is Stephen Jones, a Bad River
Chippewa. The father spent last
winter in Arizona, where he was
treated for incipient tuberculosis,
and the child is an "open air
baby" the family sleeping out in
the open on account of the condi-
ton OF the father. The baby is a
superb physical specimen. The
contention of Commissioner of In
dian Affairs Sells, that the Indian
is neither deteriorating nor a
vanishing race, is shown by this
examination, as we'll as by Super
intendent Everest records, which
show that the births exceed the
deaths among the Wisconsin Chip
pewas, in an increasing number
year by year. Duluth Herald.

"The practical value of the subterrane,"
declared Mr.. Marye, "is that If offers

concerned, by which enemy trenches,

ner and by means which would leave the
enemy absolutely no method of defense
against the attack The first the enemy
would know of the arrival of the suoter-
rane would be the cataclysmic explosion
which 1t would effect.
EVEN IL the enemy knew operations OF
the kind were under way there is no
known method OF defense. Flight alone
could save the garrison or the inhaDltants
of the city attacked.
"Depths can be attained by the subter-
rane that are not possible by any other
method in the time at disposal. There IS
a limit to the depth at which sappers ana
miners can operate, but the subterrane

model was lost after 1t had traversed
some hundred feet.
The subterrane was submitted to the
French Government two or three months
ago. The Minister of Invention is now

generally realized that it's perfection may

of the subterrane, and when contact is
established between the face oil the
plungers and the rear wall OF the trench
the subterrane moves forward.
At this time the motor actuating the
cutting head, the device whose rotation
cuts its way through every obstacle is
started The instant the revolving cut
ting head comes in contact with the for
ward face of the trench it shreds the
mass, which is conveyed as muck through
the subterrane itself and deposited to the
rear of the machine. This muck is COM
pressed by hydraulic rams and furnishes
the necessary resistance to urge the sub
terrane forward The various functions
of the device are at all times under the
control of the operator at the central sta
ton, who is advised electrically OF what
is going on.
While the rate of progress is compare
lively slow as much as half mile can De
covered in day. The maximum distance
the device will travel is not yet known.
A minimum of five or six miles is as
sured. Much depends upon the skill OF
the engineer in charge, his knowledge OF
the terrain traversed and the physical
conditions encountered.
There is no surface indication of the
progress of the subterrane. No explosive
or detonator is used in propulsion. Its
progress is noiseless No bore, orihce or
tunnel is left behind. 1t goes into the
earth and the earth closes In behind 1t. 1t

When the subterrane reaches its des-
tination-a fact made known to the opera
tor by a computation of the distance trav-
elled-it is detonated. This. OF course,
results in the destruction OF the device
itself, but that would be a trifiing loss
compared with the damage it would in
nict upon the enemy. The first subter-
