An ven be wuth 'em ALL" he giggled
evilly.
Toinette looked at him as fright
ened bird looks at snake, unable to
move; a tear stole from beneath her
lashes and rolled down her wasted
cheek.
Suppose, ye talk bit to me
thar's good gal. Come, what's yer
name7 Tight-mouthed still, are yer
Yen beg to speak fore I'm done with
yer
The flaps of the deerskin tent were
drawn aside and the painted face Of
| warrior was thrust in. He was drip
ping with sweat though the day was
chilly, and his words were hurried.
Toinette strove in vain to catch an
English word among the torrent of
Delaware, but none came; she guessed
from the startled grunts from Elkska-
tawa and the oath that fell from Cir
TVS lips that the message was Of seri-
Gus portent. Girty, casting a glance
over his shoulder, saw the girls in
tense gaze fixed upon them, and
laughed sneeringly.
| Here's some news fur ye-thet fne
young man of yours hes he'd his scalp
lifted, he, he, hel Some O. the young
Pottawattamies met up wi him wan

he thought he was in Philadelphy."
Toinette whitened. The braves who
had brought her into the village of the
Prophet had told Girty, doubtless,
that she had recognized the sick
man in the woods. Had another scout
ing party found Ike and killed him1
She could not know; Girty, seeing her
blanch at his random thrust, giggled
in triumph. The news which the rum
ner had brought was that the army Of
whites was within few miles.
The consultation between the
Prophet and the renegade went on in
cultural whispers. Toinette began to
wonder why the news of the capture
of a single white man should cause
so prolonged discussion. Sounds
Of unusual activity in the village be-
gan to reach her-a constant patter
of moccasined feet, hurrying by tho
tent, the occasional wailing of q
squaw, quickly hushed by an angry
command, the barking of the NANCY
Indian dogs-an unmistakable restless
ness in the whole camp.
| There fell on her ear the FAINT
sound of drums-distant, measured,
unlike the irregular beating Of the
drums of the savage. Nearer and
nearer 1t came, steady, unmistakable !;
and then, her heart at first refusing
to believe her ears, the shrill and
reckless music of the fifesl She be-
gen to thrill with hope in every
nerve; and with an inarticulate sob of
Joy she rose to her knees. The In
dian and the renegade looked up
sharply as she started up; and with
a cruelty that stunned her, Girty
laughed In her face.
HE, he, he!" Thet hain't any
friends O. yourn, my dearl 'Tis a

AGED MAN DIES SUDDENLY

Chas Pearce, 58 years of age, who lived alone in a little house about l. 2 miles north of Prescott, died suddenly near there last Tuesday afternoon while en route home from A. F. Fran cisco's. No cause was given for his death except that it was probably caused by a complication of diseases of which he was subject, having been ill numerous times since coming here about year ago from Findley, III. His remains were shipped to Findley yesterday afternoon.
 He was working some land which he had rented from a neighbor and he was considered by all who knew him to be a very industrious worker.

Capital Journal Special Serviee)
f. A. Doerfler sold his farm near
Victor Point to Jos. Doerfler, Jr., on
account of this farm not being an ideal
dairy ranch, it lacking shade and water.
The barn also was too small to accom-
modate the rapidly increasing herd of
Jerseys.
Mr.. Doerfler purchased 80 acres of
bottom land from his father, which is
less than half a mile from his go acre
farm near McAlpin, where he intends
building a modern dairy barn 44v110
feet, containing 16 box stalls, IA
stanchions and two large box stalls,
with stanchions, for calves. The lower
floor will be cement and there will be
two silos. Frank takes great pride in
his Jerseys as well as his Duroe hogs.

PEACE PROSPECT

having Austria modify her endorse
ment of Germany's under-sea campaign
and,
Third-and last-the expected efforts
of German Ambassaor Won Bernstorff
to preserve peace after he reaches Ber-
lin, provided of course, the covert act -
has not been committd by Grmany by
that time.
Rumors of this sub-surface "peaee
maintenance" plan have been prevalent
for several days, but not until today did
the full text of the move become known.
The two big trump cards are the
secret moves Of neutral diplomats here
to stall off war between the United
States and Germany and the German
ENJOYS known aggressive desire to pre-
serve the peace for which he has long
struggled.
Administration officials themselves
do not admit that the moves are going
on under the surface, but the United
Press learned definitely that the neu-
tral program is ambitious and that the
state department has been at least un-
officially advised of the neutrals' in
tentions.
The Swiss minister here, DIR. Paul
Ritter, is leading spirit in the confer
ence plan. He and the other neutrals
have conferred among themselves about
keeping all the now neutral countries
out of the struggle and, it is understood,
Secretary of State Lansing sat in with
them at one session.
Tn Nia nf hn e
neutral support, the proposed confer
ence idea is not unwelcome here. The
fact that none of the neutrals is break
ing with Germany, although Bolivia and
Brazil have threatened to, and the fact
that some of the neutrals might be
forced into war on the side of Germany
makes the plan acceptable, though it is
understood that the United States itself
is not asking the present action.
One reason why the concerted action
of neutrals is not unwelcome to this
government is that one of their avowed
purposes is to carry on the fight upheld
by the United States for two years, to
prevent the utter disintegration of in
ternational law.
Another reason is that the proposed
conference is planned to set forth and
protect the rights of small countries
another contention of the United States
throughout the war,
Belief grew here today that if the
expected covert act" of Germany oes
come, the United States may merely
"drift into a state of war" with Ger.
many, without open declaration of hos
tilities from either side.
The belief is based on what President
Wilson told congress at the time he sew
cred relations with Germany-that ht
would ask means to protect American
people and seamen in the prosecution
OF their lawful, legitimate eFrands OF
the high seas. "

BELIEF IN BRITAIN
tCOntinued from page Ons.)

has there been such a wave of indigna-
tiOn throughout England as that which
greeted tOdsy's publication of the de
tailed stories of survivors of the Cali
fornia.
The survivors stories differ as to the
number of submarines concerned in the
unwarned attack. Most of the crew
said there were two. Passengers, how
ever, all thought there was but one.
Two torpedoes were fired, but only one
struck. This hit the liner in a vital
spot, with a terrific explosion, tearing
her hull so much that she sank within
seven minutes.
There were at least three Americans
on board the California; negro fire
man and two children of a naturalized
American. These last two children, with
their mother, were among the Al persons
who were lost.
The same circumstances as to lack of
warning and of Americans being aboard
obtained in the case Of the steamer
Turino. Embassy information today in
dicated that two members of this YES
sell crew were American citizens.
Not only were the cases of the Cali
fornia and the Turino cited as ex-
amples of German "frightfulness, but
the complete story of the attack but the
German submarine on lifeboats carrying
the Eavestone 3 survivors was believed
to give true index of the utter disre-
gard of all principles of. international
law and the common law of humanity
animating Germany.
Satisfaction is generally expressed
here at the measures which have been
taken by the admiralty to combat the
German submarine menace. 1t was to
be expected that the U-boats initial ac-
tivity would be large Ships which were
en- route to the "barred zone" were
not fully prepared to repel attack, MOI
to have other protection planned. From
now on, England expects to see steady
decrease in the total of sinkings. Tho
utmost confidence is expressed in the
British government S measures of pro,
lection.
