Alfred Fremantle looked rather
vaguely at Munson. The middle-aged

the man was flushed. not with wine 60
much as with good living. Munson

dozen Of financial magnates had sat
at his table. At their head Edith Mum
son had watched over the affairs OF
the table. She was a beautiful woman,
even at thirty-ive, and much admired.
Fremantle was the only nonfinancial
guest present. He was rich in his own
right, and a famous traveller. He was
an old friend of Edith's, too; before
her marriage there had been some talk
about them. Fremantle had often won
dered whether Munson knew.
Munson paused irritably in the pas.

Fremantle, immaculate in his eve

him. Munson felt taken at a disad'

blandly:

Historic Pens

Who will get the pen with
which the peace treaty win be
signed which shall end the pres
ent war?
The collecting of historic pens
has been quite a fad for some
years past, especially in Europe.
The pens with which some peace
treaties are signed bring the
highest prices if they happen to
find thir ways into the market,
and there are many collectors
who would be willing to give
thousands of dollars for the pen
which shall declare an end to the
present war of wars. Usually
however, such pens remain the
property of the States concerned.
When it became known that
peace had been declared between
Japan and Russia pen manufac-
turers all over the world sent
supplies of their pens to the com
missioners who were engaged in
arranging the terms, hoping that
the document would be completed
through the agency of their
wares. To avoid any unfair dis
elimination between the pen
manufacturers it was decided to
use a quill in signing the treaty.
1t was also a quill pen that was
used in signing the treaty Of
peace between the United States
and Spain after the war of1898.
This particular pen was after
ward sold for $125.
The pen used by the commits
sioners in signing the memoir
able treaty of Paris fell into the
hands of the ex- Empress Eu-
genie. Aside from its historic
interest it is also Of great value,
for it is mounted in solid gold and
incrusted in diamonds.
Aside from the collectors there
are many who may consider it
lucky to possess a pen that has
been used in signing the reprieve
of a person condemned to death.
Applications for pens that have
performed such service are often
made to the Governors of States
Queen Victoria always retained
possession OF such pens. One OF
these she presented to Nine. AL
bani, the singer.
Pens which have been used by
famous authors often fetch ;
high price at auction. Dickens
used the same quill pen to writ,

and BLEAK House." which was
sold some time ago for SIT

LIGHTS AND SHADOWS OF THE WAR |
" AR
of the Associated Press

The Klein-M uenchen prison camp Is
huge establishment. 1t covers an
area of about five square miles, and
its barracks are capable of housing
$4,000 men without crowding. So far
about 10000 Russians and several
thousand Italians have been quarter
ed there, since the establishment OF
the camp in January, 1915. At present
theer are in the camp 304 Russian
officers and about 1900 men, the re-
mainder having been detailed to do
work on the Austrian farms.
The barracks are large wooden
structures. covered on the outside with
thick tar paper, painted white. Above
the pine-board floor, two stories of
platforms, eight platforms for each
building, provide the space upon which
the straw pallets of the men are
spread out at night. Sixty men are
so Accommodated. TO the rear of the
barracks is the dining room. in which
the prisoners gather for special pur-
poses when fatigue or work Is over
The barracks described are intended
for the ordinary Russian, the peasant
who, as a rule, is wholly illiterate, and
with whom the Intelligent" does not
want to associate. The experience
has been that the two classes do not
mix well, and rather than have con
slant strife between the prisoners, the
Austrian government decided to sepa
rate them.
