Ordered to Be Ignorant.

Miscellany has received q letter
from the front for Its readers. 1t
gives one or two little stories Of &C
tual incidents which have occurred in
the writer's regiment somewhere In
France: All ranks, as soon as they
land in France, are urgently warned
against answering questions asked
them by people whom they don't know
even though the questioner is APP
parently a British officer, for enemy
agents have been found In the uniform
Of all ranks. A certain conscientious
young sub was in the front line the
other day when a major Of the d.
visional staff came along and began
questioning the boy, with q view to
testing his alertness and efficiency.

Caustic Rebuke.

There is loud chuckling in British
naval circles over the latest story:
Somewhere In the North sea" a Ger

sea for gunnery practice. During the
practice a heavy fog came on, and the
ship whose turn It was to fire did no,
sight the target until with 800 yards
range. She Immediately opened fire
and blew the target clean out of the
water. The senior officer of the flo

tongue, thereupon made the following

CHAPTER TX.

Both men were awake early, silent
with the premonition Of trouble ahead,
thoughtful Of the fact that the time
for the long planned action was at
hand. II was remarkable that a man
so loquacious as Euchre could hold his
tongue so long; and this was signifi-
cant Of the deadly nature Of the In
tended deed. During breakfast he said
a few words customary in the service
Of food. At the conclusion Of the meal
he seemed to come to an end OF de-
liberation.
Buck, the sooner the better now"
he declared, with a CLINT in his eye.
The more time we use up now the
less surprised Bland'll be-"

Duane quietly, and he rose from the
table.

"Euchre, I hope you're not going to
get in bad here. I'm afraid you are.
Let me do the rest now" said Duane.
The old outlaw eyed him sarcastic
ally:
"Thetd be turrible now, wouldn't Il ?
II you want to know, why, I'm In bad
already. I didn't tell you tibet Alloway

truth.

early, which's all the better"
Euchre put on his sombrero, and as
he went out Duane saw that he wore q
gun and cartridge belt. It was the first
time Duane had ever seen the outlaw
armed.
Duane packed his few BELONGINGS
into his saddlebags, and then carried
the saddles out to the corral An album

UNABLE TO ADJOURN
Senate and House Can't Finish Their
Work Before Saturday
ASSOCIATED Press)

Washington, Sept. PLANS of the
Administration leaders to adjourn
Congress today were abandoned last
night when the conferees on the rev.
enue bill indicated that they could not
reach an agreement until today at
the earliest. There is possibility
that the report will not be ready be-
fore Friday and the adjournment,
was postponed until Saturday.
In the Senate a flibuster also de-
veloped against the passage of the
Corrupt Practice Bill. The general
deficiency bills again came up in con-
ference pending the action of the rev.
enue bill, and leaders also expect the
debate on the conference report on
the revenue bill to last many hours.
Senator Kern, majority leader, said
that he did not look for an adjorun-
ment before Saturday.

New York, Sept. There is
strike on the subway and elevated
lines and several surface systems of
the Interborough Rapid Transit COM
pany in the Bronx and Manhattan
boroughs. Up to noon today the city

Apparently not more than thirty per
cent of these surface cars are run

nounced the recent agreements with
its employees were abrogated, effec-
tive today. The Interborough an
nounced that all of its men not strik-

PUBLICITY FOR
MARION COUNTY PIGS

Today's Times-Union cotnains a
write-up of the Marion county pib
clubs Hampshire hogs, by Mr.. A. P.
Spencer, district agent. The article
is accompanied by picture of some
of the Hampshires. Marion county is
getting a wealth of publicity as re-
suit of its determination to adopt
one breed of hogs.
"The most substantial thing any of
of the bankers have done in the state
is to buy brood sows in the quantity
the Marion county bankers have re-
Gently bought them," says Mr.. Spen-
Ger.
eff the farmers and farmers boys
will hold up the standard they have
undertaken there should be about
1000 pure-bred Hampshire hogs from
these sows in the next twelve months
distributed throughout the county.
Surely it does not take a far-sighted
business man many minutes to see
the substantial side of such a prop
osition," Mr.. Spencer says.

Field. These meetings proved bene-
fetal socially, morally and spiritually.
Their motto was, eff you cannot be a
large stream bearing great vessels of
blessings to the world, you can be a
small spring stationed by the wayside
of life singing merrily all the day and
night, giving cup of cool water to
every weary thirsty one who passeth
by" Knowing the members of the
Baptist church of Fellowship were
trying to raise enough money to re-
paint and do. some other repairs to the
church, the members of this club be-
gan asking themselves. why stand ye
idle? We are here for the betterment
of every condition. So just two weeks
ago they decided to give play en-
titled ssThe Voice of Authority" The
characters consisted of eight young
ladies and one young man, and the
play was given last Friday night. The
weather was ideal and there was a
large crowd out, the drama was per-
feet and those who missed seing this
play missed a treat. Miss Beck was
complimented for her success as a
leader, and so were all the other young
ladies complimented for the way they
acted their parts. Ice cream was sold
in connection with the play and a
neat little sum was netted. This or
ganization is bound to have its part in
all affairs in this vicinity which are
for the betterment of general condi-
tions.
