Tell me, Julia, of Monsieur de
Sabron," asked Madame de la Maine
abruptly.
There is nothing to tell, Therese.'
"You don't trust me?"
DO you think that, really?"
In the tent where Azrael served
them their meal, under the ceiling of
Turkish red with its Arabic charac-
tiers in clear white, Julia and Madame
de la Maine sat while their coffee was

naively.
The comtesse laughed.

She drank her coffee.
You tell a love story very badly,
ma chere."
''Is it love story?"
Have you come to Africa for char
ity? Voyons!"
Julia was silent. A great reserve
seemed to seize her heart, to stit1e
her as the poverty Of her love story
struck her. She sat turning her cof-
Teaspoon between her fingers, her
eyes downcast. She had ver"' little
to tell. She might never have any
more to tell. Yet this was her love
story. But the presence of Sabron
was SO real, and she saw his eyes
clearly looking upon her as she had
seen them often; heard the sound OF
his voice that meant but one thing
and the words of his letter came back
to her. She remembered her letter
to him. rescued from the field where
he had fallen. She raised her eyes to
the Comtesse de la Maine. and there
was an appeal in them.
The Frenchwoman leaned over and
kissed Julia. She asked nothing more.
She had not learned her lessons in
discretion to no purpose.
At night they sat out in the moon
light, white as day, and the radiance
over the sands was like the snow
flowers. Wrapped in their warm cov-
erings. Julia and Therese de la Maine
lay on the rugs before the door of
their tent, and above their heads
shone the stars so low that it seemed
as though their hands could snatch

An Aggressive campaIan.

We think that a second reading Of
Mr.. Hughes remarks at Carnegie hall
Will disclose to intelligence something
more than a statement of the candi
dates opinions or an arraignment Of
the infirmities of the Wilson admins
tration.
This is not merely a speech of ac-
ceptance, 1t is plan of campaign. Mr..
Hughes has chosen his own ground.
He has confined his attention to GER
tain carefully selected and well consid.
cred objects of attack. He has bound
these together In a clearly conceived
scheme of campaign operations which
puts the president on the defensive
and, certainly. this is superior gen.
eralship.
Mr.. Wilson cannot evade the Issues
made by Mr.. Hughes without surren-
der. He cannot direct the discussion
to other themes, for that will not be
permitted. He cannot join issue with
Mr.. Hughes on the questions Of Mr..
Hughes choosing without involving
himself deeper and deeper In contro-
versial disaster; for Mr.. Hughes Sc
lected positions are impregnable and
his arguments not successfully to be
answered.
That is to say. the Republican cam
paign is to be conducted aggressively
under the leadership of a campaigner
of no ordinary ability, on a plan we'll
thought out In advance and prosecuted
with skill as well as energy.

The Odds on Huuhes.

Even newspapers friendly to the WILL
son administration admit that Governor
Hughes made fine impression upon
all classes of Republicans by his mas
terly speech formally accepting the
nomination of his party for president.
They are compelled to record the fact
that the former Progressive party lead
ers are also well satisfied
This marks another stage of the
Hughes march to victory. From the
beginning the odds have been In his
favor He has always been rated the
favorite in wagers upon the election.
At no time have such weather vanes
shown that the wind was blowing to-
ward the head of the present admins
tration. Now the outlook for the Re-
publican ticket is better than ever be-
fore.
Democratic consciousness of the des-
perate prospect for the Democratic can
didate will probably keep the National
Guard under arms and away from
home until after election day 1t will
be considered necessary to cut off as
many thousands Of antiadministration
votes as possible, by foul means as well
as fair. But no such scheme can avail
The margin of victory is too wide.
Hughes will win easily, even If the
guard is DISTINGUISHED.

OHIO AND MINNESOTA SAFE
carmi Thompson Says Democrats
Have No Chance to Carry Either
Of Those Statea

Carmi A. Thompson of St Paul, who
used to be secretary to President Taft
and was also an assistant secretary Of
the interior. brought word to political
friends in Washington that Minnesota
and Ohio would be sure to give great
Republican pluralities this fall. Mr..
Thompson Is a native of Ohio and was
for many years a leading Republican Of
the Buckeye state.
IF the Democrats have any idea Of
carrying either Ohio or Minnesota, they
had better wake up" said Mr.. Thomp-
son. II really don't believe there is
any more chance of Democratic sue
cess In these two states than there Is
OF Republican victory in Georgia.
Frank p. Kellogg. the Republican nom.
inee for the United States senate, will
surely defeat Daniel Lawler and the
state will go Republican for Hughes
plurality.
I'm Ohio there Is perfect harmony
among Republicans and Progressives.
Two years ago the Progressives polled
a considerable vote, but even then the
Republicans elected the governor and
other state officers and gained seats in
congress. With keen interest In the
national fight and the election Of gov
ernor and United States senator also,
the vote in Ohio this year will probably
be the largest ever, and l look for n
Republican plurality approaching 1OO.-
600. There is no doubt about the re-
election Of Governor Willis. Whoever
wins the senatorial fight, and am for
Harry Daugherty, will undoubtedly be
selected over Senator Pomerene."

SLAVERY IN EARLY DAYS
African Slave Trade Was Once Open
ly Tolerated by the British
Government.

Slavery existed In nearly all Of the
English colonies from an early Pc
Rod until shortly before or soon af-
ter the Revolutionary war, and the
African slave trade was openly toll
Grated by the British government. In
1856 there were $4,000 African
slaves In the colonies, scattered from
New England to Georgia. 1t was not
prohibited In Massachusetts, until
1850, nor in Vermont until TIT. The
United States census Of 1910 showed
80 slaves in Connecticut, 1881 in
New Jersey, 1907 in New York, 795
In Pennsylvania. and 108 in Rhode
Island. Slavery was gradually abb
olished In the northern states, but
In 1920 there were still 81 slaves In
Connecticut, 1857 in New Jersey
100S8 In New York, oil in Pennsyl
vania, and 48 in Rhode Island. The
census of 1850 showed the disappear
ance of slavery in all the northern
states except New Jersey, which still
had q surviving remnant of 236.

NINE SOLDIERS CAPTURE 113
enehchmen Trick the Defenders Of q
German Field Fort on
the Somme.

One Of the most striking episodes
OF the great Somme offensive was the
recent taking of the field fort at BIZ
acnes and its garrison of 113 men
by French soldiers.
All attempts to storm the position
had been checked by murderous ma
chine-gun fire until French officer
discovered a vulnerable point. Sc
lectlng second lieutenant, two SER
geants, corporal and four men, he
LED them on hands and knees through
the long grass to the spot where he
knew there was breach in the de-
fenses. Then three of the French Of
hcers abruptly leaped into the work,
shouting in stentorian tones, "For.
ward with the bayonet!" and throw
Ing bombs which exploded in the
dugout.
The Germans, believing large
force was with the Frenchmen, had
no time to get their weapons and sur
rendered. But now the three French
captors began to feel nervous, as
they saw no reason why the Germans
should not fall upon them and ex-
terminate them. They were saved
by the six comrades, who came rush
Ing in just at this moment. Again
fooled the entire German garrison
was marched to the French rear
escorted by the nine "poilus," who had

Denver.-"Another week or ten
days of earnest drill and the Colorado
national guard will be in shape to go

Barry. commanding officer Of the cen

state militia at the camp at Golden.
Although Gen. Barry's report will not
be final, 1t will probably have much
to do with setting date of departure
for the Colorado troops in case the
War Department decides to send
them.
For several hours Gen. Barry. &C

Roger Fitch, inspected the various de-
tachments at their daily work. NO
drill was held, and no review partici
pated in, but no detail OF the camp

looked in the tour of the quarters.
Gen. Barry spent much of his time In
talking with the men. getting opin-
ions from the privates themselves az
to how they liked the service.
Company F of the infantry received
much praise when the army officers
watched 1t in the daily drill on the
camp review grounds. "A mighty well
drilled company" was the opinion OF
Gen. Barry.
"The troops at the Colorado Mobilis-
alton camp will compare well with
those at any state camp. They are
fine body of men and their horses are
as good, II not better, than any horses
already sent with the state troops to
the border. Your camp veterinarians
have done wonders in restoring them
to health" stated Gen. Barry as he
left the camp.
Gen. Barry said that in all prob
ability any future mobilization OF
Etate troops would take place at Fort
Logan, the United States army post
here, instead of at the Golden rifle
range. Troops could then march out
to the range for their target prac-
tice.
