1t was just one of those things.
1t happened at the end of trying
day of exasperting mishaps and
household bothers. To finish things
off for Cora, slow. dull headache
came on, and just as she lay down
for a half hours rest the telephone
rang, jangling her nerves with it's
sharpness.
1t was David, to say that if she
would meet him at Brice & Pull
mans he would help her pick out
some furnishings for the house.
The shop was hot and crowded.
They looked at tons of furnishings,
mountains of furnishings, universes
full of furnishings. One clerk had
cold and kept shifting in a way
that Infatuated Cora, as small
things do when the nerves are on
edge. They took some curtains
home in a fat bundle, David lug
ging them while Cora clutched a
family of smaller packages.
1t seemed to Cora that David
stopped at every counter in the
store to examine a book or finger
necktie. 1t seemed to David that
Cora was uncommonly impatient.
Lets go now, dear said Cora,
regaining her balance after a
hard. collision with fat woman.
"Yeah-right away" answered
David absently, stuffing the cur
tain bundle between his knee and
the showcase while he tested the
workings of some electric utensil.
Cora moved on and David followed.
The crowd thickened at the door.
For an instant Cora thought she
glimpsed Wanda Laurence near the
glove counter, but when she looked
again the pretty figure had disap-
peared.
Lets take the bus, David; it'll
be nice and cool on top" No re-
ply from David. II say. let's
take" Cora turned, only to see
the fat woman who had showed her
before, but no sign of David. She
stepped to one side and glanced
about. Her husband was nowhere
in sight.
Odd How could he have disap-
peared so completely when he had

Carrot Marmalade

one more recipe for the marmalade which
you say reminds you of the Frenchmans
pebble soup? Carrot marmalade: Wash
and scrape five pounds of carrots, put
through the food chopper, add five pounds
of sugar, two oranges, and two lemons
that have been cut into small bits. Mix
all together, put into a granite pan, and
cook slowly five hours, stirring often 1t
will keep in glass or dish and is very
good ]. I. r."
Your compound bears no resemblance
whatever to the famous soup. There are
enough good things in it to redeem the
pebbles-or CARTS! You do not say that
the oranges and lemons are to be peeled.
I infer, however, that they are not, and
that the bits are small.

Everett, Wash, Nov. 6-Eive men were killed and forty wounded yester- day in a fight at the Everett City wharf between 250 members of the Industrial Workers of the World who came here from Seattle on the steam CT Verona and a, posse of 150 citizens headed by Sheriff Don McRae. Mo Req is among the seriously wound ed.
 After the battle, in which about a thousand shots were exchanged, the Verona turned and started back to Seattle Many men were seen to fall on the deck and others, panic stricken jumped overheard. Some of these were rescued, but it is believed many were drowned.
 Invaders Coming Announced.
 The Verona reached Everett shortly before 2 o'clock. The coming of the party of invaders had been announc- ed in messages sent to Everett from Seattle. A call to Industrial Work CTS of the World from all over the state had been issued earlier in the week and the citizens of Everett at a meeting held on Saturday night plan ned to meet and deny them privilege of landing.
 When the Verona reached the city wharf, Sheriff McRae, who was back ed by posse of deputies and citizens, informed the men on the vessel they would not be permitted to land. One, evidently spokesman for the party, be- Gan arguing with the sheriff. Then.

closer alliance. The withdrawal from Fashoda left France with no interests on the Nile. AS Great Britain was not interested in Morocco, where France was vitally concerned, the Af- rican interests no longer clashed. A treaty was framed by which France surrendered all claims to Egyptian territory, and undertook not to press England for a termination of the oc- cupation. On her side, Great Britain agreed to give Fadnce a free hand in Morocco. Other minor disputes, con- corning Newfoundland, Madagascar, Siam, Nfe New Hebrides and West Africa, were arranged satisfactorily to both nations.
 The first public step toward the Anglo-French entente was taken when King Edward VIII. paid an official visit to Paris in 1903, and the return visit of President Loubot paved the way for the treaty of 1904. The ter- imitation of all the old difficulties was received with great popular ap- plause in both countries.

THE ANGLO
 FRENCH ENTENTE

Bitter enemies and rivals for cen- turies, England and France are at last bound together byties of friend ship which have been cemented with the blood shed in a common cause. It may be said of them that they love as one and hate as one," and 1t 1s altogether unlikely that the old ami mosities will ever be revived.
 The Crimean war, when French and British soldiers fought shoulder to shoulder, temporarily dissipated the old enmity, but it did not wholly van quish it. That war was fought at 8 distance, and did not serve to acquaint other. Moreover, the slashing of in terests in Africa later aroused some of the old rancor which had charac- terized the relations of Frenchman and Englishman when their countries were fighting for the domination of North America.
 The last f1are-up of the old hatred was aroused by the so-called "Fashoda incident This Sunday will mark the eighteenth anniversary of the am- icable settlement of that quarrel, for it was on Nov 5, 1898, at 8 Gui1dhall dinner in honor of the late Lord Kitchener, that Lord Salisbury an- nounced that the controversy which for a time had threatened to plunge France and Britain into war had been compromised.
 Fashoda, the bone of contention on that occasion, is a town on an island in the White Nile, founded by the Egyptian government in 1867, and made the capital of Shilluk territory. When the >Mahdi overthrow Egyptian rule in the Soudan in 1884, Fashoda and other Egyptian posts on the waterways of the Upper Nile had to be abandoned.
 France took advantage of this fact to send a scientific expedition, under the command of Major Jean Bap- tiste Marchand, to Soudan by way of the French Congo. In the summer of 1898 Marchand planted the tri-color of the French republic at Fashoda.

Shortly after that the forces of the Mahdi were defeated at Omdurman, and General Kitchener, hearing of the French occupation of the territory which had belonged to Egypt, pro- ceeded by gunboat to Fashoda. kltch- ener demanded that Marchand aban- don the territory, but the French of1- cer replied that he could not with draw without instructions from his government. He added that he had made a treaty with the chiefs of the neighboring Shilluk tribes. who had placed themselves under the protec- ton of France.
 Marchands force was so small that Kitchener could easily have overpow- cred it, but he left the French party unmolested, after serving protest at what he called the illegal Occupa- tiOn, since the territory was Egyptian and had been recovered by British arms. Kitchener raised the British and Egyptian flags over Fashoda, and left a garrison to occupy the place, after which he returned to Khartoum and reported the matter to London and Cairo. Marchand similarly re- ported to Paris.
 The occupation of Fashoda aroused a storm in both France and Great Britain, and for a time there was much heated talk of war. After much diplomatic correspondence, France or dered Marchand and his expedition to evacuate Fashoda, and the incl dent was settled.
 Marchand, with the rank of briga- dier-general, has been prominent in the present war. A little more than a year ago it was reported that he had been seriously wounded by a fragment of shell but he recovered and returned to the front, after hav- ing been made a grand officer of the Legion of Honor. Last May it was reported that he had been killed at the front, but this report was later denied. General Marchand was born in 1863, and was noted as an African explorer as we'll as for his distinguish ed military achievements.
 Strangely enough. the Fashoda in cident afforded the basis for the en- tente cordiale between France and great Britain. and the subsequent

 I am for Wilson because Wilson is for me, and for every other man who hates war and loves civilization, and because he is full of stockwhip grip and determination to keep his coun- try out of the hellish murder which has coff1ned Europe, and which now threatens to drag us. too, into their cutthroat comity. Votes for Wilson are Votes for Peace.
 Party politics in times like these are an indulgence rich as dishwater. It's a time for statesmen such as no time ever before since the world be- gan.
