Alfred Symons did not know he was
dead for several days after the fatality.
His mind had been full Of the ap-
preaching meeting with his sweet
heart, and of the wedding. Then he
was conscious Of the sudden, awful
shOck-and Darkness followed, SO far
as external conditions were concerned.
But his mind, which is not of the
brain, though it works through the
brain, was ceaselessly at work. He
lived, if the term may be used of a
disembOdied entity, in a state OF de-
lirium. He did not know who he was,
or what it was that troubled him, or
why his existence had dwindled down
to this point Of feverish unrest and
stupefactiOn. He did not dream that
his body lay beneath a thousand tons
Of rock that had fallen upon the ex-
press and buried it at the bottom Of
the gulch, with all its human freight
It was long time afterward when
he suddenly remembered his personal
1ty. Then where was he? In a mad
house? On sickbed? The next thing
he recalled was Margaret's name, and
now he was able to connect it with
his troubles. Margaret-yes! The
meaning of the word flashed through
his mind. He was to have married her
It was just then that he discovered
he was no longer in corporal form.
He was dead, and he could never
marry her For a much longer period
years, in fact, he occupied himself
in putting things together, in the way
the dead do before they are qualified
to enter into paradise. This might
have been different, butt was with
a divine purpose that it had happened.
This act, which had been so costly to
the body had been so fruitful to the
soul. Gradually the disharmonies Of
life adjusted themselves, in spite of
the grief of Margaret, which reached
him as disturbing influence, and at
last the day came when he understood
and remembered all.
And he knew now, in the light Of his
clearer insight, that he could never
have made Margaret happy. Their
temperaments were too ill-adjusted. It
had been mistake and delusion on both
sides. Margaret had localized him. and
he her. Marriage would have been the
ehastliest OF ali mistakes. And the

failed in his endeavor, and he knew
that Margaret wept FOR her dead love-,
in secret. However, he was good to
her, and with the tardy birth Of the
boy new affection seemed to grow
up between them.
It seemed indeed to Margaret that
this new tie to life had put the past out
of her mind. Once she awakened to
the realization that her dead lover was
forgotten. At first she blamed herself
for her forgetfulness, and then she was
glad. The past was past, and Alfred
must take his place with all that had
been before John Milrand came into
her life

tions are directed at that portion Of
the front in which the Germans strove
to make breach between the Russian

Military observers say that the
wedge which the Russians are report
ed to be driving into the DOrna Watra
and Kirlibaba positions is of great
strategic importance. The official
reports indicate that the Russians
have already achieved considerable
penetration of the Teutonic lines. In
Russian military opinion the logical
effect of this maneuver would be the
forced retirement of General Falken-
hayn's forces in Pennsylvania.

crnment has sent a reply to Admiral

demands, according to a Reuter- dis
patch from Athens.

The Athens correspondent Of the
Daily Mail interviewed Vice Admiral
du Fournet aboard his flagship, and
quotes him similarly 20 the CORES
pondent Of the Chronicle. The ad-
miral said that he did not intend
either TO seize the arms or fire upon
the Greek troops, but declared that
unless the guns were surrendered, he
would land large detachments which
would not re-embark until his de
mands were complied with, Other
coercive measures would be taken at
the same time.
"As / have most ample forces at
my disposal" the admiral said "and
some OF the heaviest and most pow
crful artillery in existence ! can see
no reason why the arms will not be
quietly given up"

London, Dec. 1.-The mention in
the Rumanian communique of violent
fighting on the Glavatziotzu river is
regarded here as showing that the
Rumanian retreat has halted, and
that a stand is being made on that
stream to contest the advance on
Bucharest from the west. There is
nothing to indicate, however, whether
this action is intended as a final ef-
fort to save the capital or whether it
is merely a cover to permit the main
Rumania forces to take positions on
the Argrische river, some fifty niles
further to the east.

The forces of Field Marshal Won
uackensen are almost within shelling
distance of the southern forts which
protect Bucharest, the capital of Iu-
mania. Driving along the railroad
leading north from Giurgiu, Won Mac
kensen has captured the town of To
mana. sixteen miles south of Buehar-
est and at last accounts was still
making progress toward his objective.
Meanwhile, the army Of General
Won Falkenhayn is keeping up its
pressure against the Rumanians west
and northwest of the capital, in the
center having forced the Rumanians
TO fall back to GlavatziotZu, thirty
seven miles from Bucharest, and far
ther north, having captured the town
of Campulung, thus opening the way
for the unhindered advance of addi-
tlonal troops of the central powers
through the Torzburg pass into Walla-
CHA.
The offensive begun by the Rus
slams in the region of Kirlibaba appar-
emily is not impeding to any extent
the Teutonic inroads into Rumania.
Additional gains are conceded to the
Russians in this vicinity, but again it
is asserted that they have been dear
ly paid for in casualties. The Ruman-
lans on the north and northwest
fronts have made progress in the Ru-
Ecu and Prahova valleys.
