under the surface. Already was
somewhat familiar with the wireless
device that controlled II, 80 that while
Burnside steadied the aircraft could
direct 1t, as he coached me.
The submarine saw 1t coming now.
But It was too late. It could not turn;
1t could not submerge in time.
A terrific explosion followed as the
torpedo came in contact with the boat,
throwing column OF water high in
the air. A yawning hole was blown,
in the very side of the submarine.
One could see the water rush In.
Inside, Del Mar and his men were
now panic.stricken. Some OF them
desperately tried to plug the hole.
But 1t was hopeless. Others fell, faint
ing, from the poisonous gases that
were developed.
OF them all, Del Mars was the only
cool head.
He realized that all was over.
There was nothing left to do but what
other submarine heroes had done In
better causes. He seized piece of
paper and hastily wrote:
Tell my emperor failed only be-
cause Craig Kennedy was against me.

He had barely time to place the
message In a metal float nearby.
Down the submarine. now full OF
water, sank.
With his last strength he flung the
message clear OF the wreckage as It
settled on the mud on the bottom of
the bay.
Burnside and I could but stare in
grim satisfaction at the end of the
enemy OF ourselves and our country.
Up the hillside plodded Professor
Arnold still in his wild disguise as the
hermit. Now and then he turned and
cast an anxious glance out over the
bay at the fast disappearing periscope
Of the submarine.
Once he paused. That was when he
saw the hydro-aeroplane with Burn
side and myself carrying the wireless
torpedo.
Again he paused az he plodded up,
this time with gasp of extreme sat
isfaction. He had seen the water
spout and heard the explosion that
marked the debacle Of Del Mar.
The torpedo had worked. The most
dangerous foreign agent of the coalt
ton of Americas enemies was dead.
and his secrets had gone with him to
the bottom OF the sea. Perhaps no
one would ever know what the nation
had been spared.

THIRTY-sIxTH EPISODE
THE KENNEDY WIRELESS TOR.
PEDO.

Half carrying, half forcing Elaine
down into the water, Del Mar and his
two men. all four of the party clad
In the outlandish submarine suits, bore
the poor girl literally along the bottom
of the bay until they reached point
which they knew to be directly under
the entrance to the secret submarine
harbor.
Del Mars mind was working fe-
verishly.. Though he now had In his
power the girl he both loved and also
feared as the stumbling block in the
execution of his nefarious plans
against America, he realized that in
getting her he had been forced to be-
tray the precious secret of the har-
Dor itself.
At the point where he knew that
the harbor was above him, hidden
safely beneath the promontory, he
took from under his arm float which
he released. Upward it shot through
the water.
Above. In the harbor, number of
his men we're either on guard or loung-
ing about.
"A signal from the chief" Dried a
sentry, pointing to the float as it
bobbed up.
Kick off the lead Shoes" signaled
Del Mar to the others. under the
water.
They did so and rose slowly to the
surface, carrying Elaine up with them.
The men at the surface were waiting
for them and helped to pull Del Mar
and his companions out Of the water.
"Come into the office, right away"
beckoned Del Mar anxiously, removing
his helmet and leading the way.
In the ONCE, the others removed
their helmets, while Del Mar took the
headgear OF Elaine. She stared about
her bewildered.
Where am II" she demanded.
"A woman!" exclaimed the men In
the harbor In surprise.
Never mind where you are"
growled Del Mar, plainly worried.
Then to the men, he added. I'VE can't
stay any longer. The harbor is dis
covered. Get ready to leave imme-
diately"
Immediately there was general
scramble to make ready for the es-
cape.
In the corner of the office, Elaine,
again in her skirt and shirtwaist
which the diving suit had protected,
sat open-eyed watching the prepare
lions of the men for the hasty depar-
ture. Some had been detailed to get
the rifles which they handed around to
those as yet unarmed. Del Mar took
one as well as cartridge belt.
Guard her." he shouted to one
man indicating Elaine. "and II she gets
away this time, I'll shoot you"
Then he led the others down the
ledge until he came to submarine
boat. The rest followed. still making

 This, then, is the record made by the United States aviation corps in the first operations where American planes used under service conditions. The blame however devolves upon Congress, upon the corps which has been striving do the impossible with the meager appropriations made fofe it.

THE POISONERS.

t1acoma NewS.1
 Witnesses who qualified to know whereof they speak testify that more drunk were seen on the streets of Tacoma Saturday evening than any time since the prohibition law took effect and than usually were before that time It is reported about tie streets that liquor is procurable in many places, including of the drug stores It is well known fact recognized by officers of the law, that most of the whisky being consumed is of most dangerous variety
 The fact that it Is extremely poisonous makes more necessary the strieest enforcement of the law and the officials awaken to the power of the foe they have to fight
 The law must be enforced. Those who sell liquor unawfully must be clapped into jail and their fixtures confscated. Temporizing with posoners will not do We must hit and hit hard and so impress the evil doers possible, to drive them Into the paths of honest labor. man who will drink the rot-gut of the bootlegger is fool just the man who sells it Is a cold-booded criminal, and the community must find the means of dealing with both of them

Bare Feet Not Natural
Cure for Foot Trouble

THE popular supposition that shoes
are the source OF all foot troubles, and
that to 60 barefooted Is the natural con-
dition Is all wrong" says the specialist
who Is demonstrating the DR.. Scholl ap-
planes for the feet at the local Regal
Shoe Store thu week.
But shoes and stockings wrongly At
ted will often set up mischief and ANAL
ly cause serious arrangement OF the
structure of the feet. and finally many
foot troubles. A slightly pronated foot
or a displaced metatarsal bone causes
callouses and pains of very ALARMING
nature. and II would be quite impossible
to 80 barefoot when such conditions
manifest themselves.
The fact is. a foot without a shoe Is
like an oyster without a shell. and the
natives who still adhere to the barefoot
conditions have the worst feet In the
world. instead OF the best. as 30 many
people erroneously believe"
For the purpose Of convincing the
thousands of men and women who have
foot trouble how easy II is TO enjoy
real and permanent relief from the In
Vulnerable ailments which attack the
feet, a foot specialist has been engaged
bv the Regal Shoe Company to DEMON
strate DIR. Schools scientific appliances.
and to give free advice as TO the care
and treatment OF the feet.

NOT BLHAsE, AFTER ALI

The run-off primary in South
Carolina has resulted apparently in
the defeat Of Cole Blease for the
nomination for governor. He car
ried the first primary with strong
plurality, but not heavy enough. to
nominate; and South Carolina has
served its political reputation by de-
feating him IN the second, and nam
Ing Richard L. Manning, the present
governor. Blease held long lead
over Manning in the first test, SO
that the consolidation of avery large
proportion of anti-Blease strength
indicates q determined purpose to
save the State from another episode
Of. Bleaseism.
South Carolina has dope' itself a
somewhat tardy credit. II couldn't
afford to take any more chances with
the sort Of government and ideals
that Blease represents. No State
could afford to stand before the
country, deliberately choosing to de-
clare its majority in favor of that
sort Of thing. Blease is not by any
means altogether bad; but his gov
ernmental program is altogether de-
moralizing.

Toy Soldiers.

"Good-by, my boy" ! said to him, for
he went down South today.
When he was a kid with soldier toys
used to watch him play.
He wore a cap Of martial cut and car
ried a sword and drum.
Gust watch me, dad" he would cry TO
me. Attention! The foe has come 70
The little tin soldiers he mustered there
would tumble one by one;
And then whole gaps In the ranks he'd
make and the battle had begun:
He'd wink at me and nod his head and
sound the charges again;
And he'd pay the price OF his laundering
with a regiment Of men.
He'd bring his cavalry into line and
place his cannon there,
And form his infantry battle front or
into a hollow square;
He'd laugh and chatter and move his
men and slaughter the foe In glee
And when the victory had been won he'd
come and shake hands with me.
And now he's gone to the border. His
daddy is all alone.
And Il seems to me my love for him Ia
the only wealth l own:
I saw him of with his troopers, and
they are such splendid boys
II can't be Gods will to do to them what
children do TO toys

ARMY CORPS BODY S
TO URGE PENSIONS
Society Would Have Widows o?
Spanish Veterans Recognized.

Congress will be urged at the opening
OF the session In December to tsxe
prompt action on the Key bill. authorff-
ing an increase in the monthly pensions
OF widows OF men who served In the
Spanish American war and in the Phil
ippine insurrccticn: and to enact legis-
lation providing two months extra pay
to veterans OF the Philippine insurrec-
ton discharged prior to the general
mastering out.
Resolutions urging these measured
were adopted last night at meeting OF
the Eighth Army Corps Society. They
pointed out that while the recent act
OF Congress increasing the pensions OF
the widows OF Civil and Mexican war
veterans was to be commended. Con-
gress should go further and include the
widows Of veterans OF the two later
wars. They called attention also to the
fact that in 1910 Congress voted the two
months extra pay to the soldiers In the
Philippine campaign at the muster out.
but that the Comptroller of the Treas
ury ruled that this did not apply TO
those discharged before the muster out.
The officers elected at last nights
meeting are William A. Hickey. presi..
dent; John F. Mccarthy, secretary; ana
Edwin J. O'Connor. treasurer.

ANOTHER SIGN OF REUNION

Maine made it pretty clear that
Republicans and. Progressives had
reunited and were prepared to put up
a firm front in that State, which was
one of the most strongly impreg-
mated with progressivism in 1912.
Now comes, from the other end of
the country, very like report.
The State of Maine went Demo-
cratic in 1912, with Taft running
third and Roosevelt very close behind
Wilson. In Washington, Roosevelt
actually carried the electoral vote,
and did it by a plurality of nearly
$1,000. One result of that election
was that Miles Poindexter, Senator
from Washington, has since been
rated as the one party Progressive
holding a seat in the Senate.
This year, following the amalga-
nation of the parties, Poindexter be-
came candidate for the Republican
nomination to succeed himself in the
Senate. Returns from the Washing
ton primary, held yesterday, indicate
that he is probably renominated;
the early reports, from thel western
part Of the State, left him second,
but it was confidently claimed and
generally expected that he would
have such huge lead in the Spo-
kane section, where he lives, that
would overcome the western opposi-
ton.
If Poindexter can be nominated as
a Republican in Washington, as
Johnson was in California, the juxta
position of these two Western re-
suits and the Maine reunion leaves
little room for doubt where the Pro-
gressives have gone. They've gone
home.

THE MEASURE OF THE GERMAN
LOSSES

When German troops were sweep
ing everything before them in the
advance on Paris, it was possible to
understand pretty accurately what
was happening, by reading the re-
ports from either Berlin, Paris, or
London. Each side has been from
the beginning of the war disposed to
minimize its failures and "play up"
its successes; but London and Paris
dared tell the truth about their re-
verses even when the story was one
Of almost unqualified disaster.
Germany, in the same position on
the Somme, has not been equally
straightforward. The Berlin reports
Of operations whose significance is
not to be doubted, fail to convey an
accurate impression of what is TAX
ing place. 1t is said that there are
millions of people in Germany even
to this day who do not know that
Germany was defeated at the Marne.

tails are interesting as Illuminating

GERMANY AND ITS WOMEN

German women, like English
women and French women, are
taking their places in field and fac
tories.
England views the new activities
with deep gratitude and pride. The
vote, which cajolery and militancy
could not win, will be her reward
for her wartime efforts.
France does not exhibit surprise,
but does show the same deep salts
faction, in her women's present
achievements. France always has
expected every French woman to do
her duty. In France she has for
many decades been the partner, not
the dependent, Of men.
But does Germany, at the exhibit
ton of feminine efficiency, rejoice?
Cne might conclude that German
"kultur" would applaud the war
time development of the erstwhile
weaker sex. Far from it.
In the entrance of women into in
dustry Germany sees only the dread
chance of her entry into political
life. One German woman writes:
The woman who lives for her call
ing or for an organization, be II in
dustrial or political, Is lost to her
home. II the foreign Vaccinations
OF Anglo-Saxonism succeed in in
fecting us with the English COM
plant of the misdeeds OF political
women or introduce suffragetism,
our future will be much more mem
aced than by any defeat on the bat
tlefield.
Another writer is quoted as fol-
lows:
The masculine character Of the
German state and its fiourishinR COM
dition are cause and result, and the
general efreminizlng that Is going ON
will mean Its fall.
A voting German woman might
have some troublesome questions to
ask about ethics. She might recoil
at the terrorism of the Zeppelins. A
woman might finch at the sinking
of the Lusitania; might imperil the
masculine character" Of the German
state. In Germany her place surely
is in the home. The less thinking
she does the better for the present
German state and the present Ger
man state of mind. o......
