ges Red Cross Efforts
From Patterson Tribune:

10 man living can tell, in the face
Of the announcement that Russia
has made a separate peace with
Germany what the outcome of the
present great war will be. But Of
one thing we are certa'n-every
american citizen, with the interest
OF his great country at heart, must
strain every nerve and give to the
utmost of his ability, of his time,
energy and money to the great
cause of his people. To win the war
is and has been the one aim of us
all. and without Russia as an ally,
with the possibility that she may ev-
en- throw her influence and vast re-
sources to a greater or less extent,
to cur enemies, it is certain that our
task is an infinitely harder one
then the most pessimistic of us
could have conceived, and the part
that the American Red Cross will
take in winning this great war, in
securing for US Americans the right
t. remain free Americans, to ira
ve~se the globe at our own pleasure,
ard in our own way, is not second
even to the Army and the Navy. 1t
is also closely allied with both, and
the Nation is so dependent upon the
Successful operations Of this great
tranch of the American fighting
machine, that the success or failure
OF lie Red Cross work may actually
mean victory or defeat.
Let us, therefore , every man,
woman and child of US, W. stay-at
homes, every day do some little
thing for the Red Cross, something
that through this wonderful organi-
za'i of ours, will tighten t!3 bur-
den Of the men who are doing our !

she dreamed of him and of all that he
meant to her. She compared him with
the sheik, her father, and at the
thought Of the stern, griZzled old Arab
she Shuddered. Even the savage blacks
had been less harsh to her than he.
Not understanding their tongue, she
could not guess what purpose they had
in keeping her prisoner. She knew
that man ate man, and she had ex-
pected to be eaten, but she had been
with them for some time now, and no
harm had befallen her.
She did not know that q runner had
been dispatched to the distant village
Of the sheik to barter with him for q
ransom. She did not know, nor did
Kovudoo, that the runner had never
reached his destination; that he had
fallen in with the safari of Jensen
and Malbihn and with the talk
ativeness Of native had UNI
folded his whole mission to the
black servants Of the two Swedes.
These had not been long in retailing
the matter to their masters, and the
result was that when the runner left
their camp to continue his journey he
had scarce passed from sight before
there came the report of rifle, and
he rolled lifeless into the underbrush
with bullet hole in his back.
A few moments later Malbihn
strolled back into the encampment.
where he went to some pains to let it
be Known that he had had a shot at
q fine buck and missed. The Swedes
knew that their men hated them and
that an overt act against kovudoo
would quickly be carried to the chief
at the first opportunity. Nor were they
sufficiently strong in either guns or
loyal followers to risk antagonizin3
the willy old chief.
The next day the Swedes set out for
KoyudoO's village, bent on securing pos
session OF the person of the white girl
whom KOvudoos runner had told them
lay captive in the chiefs village. How
they were to accomplish their end
tuty ulu lOI huo". OlSC was OuI VI
the question:, though they would not
have hesitated to use it had they pos
sessed it.
In former years they had marched
rOughshOd over enormous areas, TAX
ing toll by brute force even when kind
illness or diplomacy would have ac-
cOmplished more. But now they were
in bad straits-so bad that they had
not shown their true colors scarce
twice in a year, and then only when
they came upon an isolated weak vii
lage.
Kovudoo was not of these, and,
though his village was in way re-
mote from the more populous district
to the north, his power was such that
he maintained an acknowledged suze-
rainty over the thin thread Of villages
which connected him with the savage
lords to the north.
To have antagonized him would have
spelled ruin for the Swedes. 1t would
have meant that they might never
reach civilization by the northern
route. To the west the village Of the
sheik lay directly in their path, barring
them effectually. To the east the trail
was unknown to them, and to the
south there was no trail.

the fate Of the girl, upon whom he had
always looked as more or less OF an
interloper and an unquestiOned bur-
den.
Korak lay bleeding and unconscious
when Akut reached his side. The great
ape tore the heavy spears from his
flesh, licked the wounds and then car
ried his friend to the lofty shelter that
Korak had. constructed for Meriem.
Further than this the brute could do
nothing. Nature must accomplish the
rest unaided or Korak must die.
He did not die, however. For days
he lay helpless with fever, while Akut
and the apes hunted close by that they
might protect him from such birds and
beasts as might reach his lofty retreat.
Occasionally Akut brought him juicy
fruits which helped to Stake his thirst
and allay his fever, and little by little
his powerful constitution overcame the
effects Of the spear thrusts. The
wounds healed and his strength re-
turned.
All during his rational moments as
he had lain upon the soft furs which
lined Meriem's nest he had suffered
more acutely from fears for Meriem
than from the pain of his own wounds.
For her he must live; for her he must
regain his strength that he might set
out in search Of her. But it was many
q day before strength returned to him.

Meriem, bound and under heavy
guard in Kovudoo's own hut, had NO
doubt but that Korak would come
back and still less that he would cas-

was the excitement and hot was the
rage Of the men when they learned
that the white devil had again entered
their homes. frightened their women
and stolen arrows and ornaments and
food.
Even their superstitiOus fear Of this
weird creature who hunted with
huge bull ape was overcome in their
desire to wreak vengeance upon him
and rid themselves for good and all Of
the Menace of his presence in the
jungle.
And so it was that q score of the
fleetest and most doughty warriors OF

The little party Of warriors was led
by Kovudoo. the chief, middle aged
savage of exceptional cunning and
bravery. It was he who first came
within sight of the quarry which they
had followed for hours by the mys-
FERROUS methods Of their almost I'M
canny powers Of observation, intuition
and even scent.
The white youth and the white maid
stood alone in the jungle when they
were discovered by KovudOo's band.
Akut had been made king Of his ape

For a time the apes followed them,

Market Fluctuating
But Stronger In Tone

New York, March 5.--The New York
Evening Sun inancial review today
says:
The level Of prices in today's stock
market presented an undulating sur
face, due to miscofception Of news
dispatches from Washington as wen as
to varying emotions arising from the
disgraceful spectacle witnessed yester-
day in the hall of the senate Of the
United States.
The promise Of an amendment 10 the
senate rule doing away with unlimited
debate in the special session called to-
day and the frank presentation Of The
situatioon in the inaugural address, aid
something to offset the indignation
and depression that are universal in
securities and financial circles.
After numerous ups. and downs, the
market assumed strong tone, which
was attributed mainly TO the covering
Of shorts as a result Of good support
rendered by important interests.
United States Steel pushed through
40 and Bethlehem Steel A and B
shares advanced II points for the form.

BRITISH UNDERSTAND
AMERICAS POSITION
Never Before Realized PeCuI-
iaritieS Of Americas Com
plex Government
By Ed L. Keen

NOhlteu fress starr correspondent
London, March 5.--For the first
time today the British press and pub
lie seemed to have arrived at a full
understanding of the complex position
which President Wilson faced because
Iof the senate rules permitting filibus.
tering Consequently, comment, both
public and in the British newspapers,
reflected a more sympathetic attitude
toward the American executive and his
problems than any time in recent
weeks.
On the other hand the "fhandful of
senator's" who blocked passage of the
armed neutrality bill in the senate
came in for universal execration for
" thwarting the national WILL" as
most newspapers expressed it.
The average Briton finds it hard to
understand the American legislative
and political system and in such mix
up as the American senate found itself
during the last two days neither the
British newspapers nor the public
were able to fathom the matter
Dispatches detailing the close of the
congressional session, "featurcd here
by the newspapers, served to clear up
much Of the mystery of the situation.
United Press dispatches from Wash
ington Saturday and Sunday aided in
giving the public a clear, comprehens-
i've view Of the dramatic close Of con
gress and some conception of the stu
alton in which President Wilson now
finds himself.
British newspapers were chary about
suggesting a "way out" for Wilson,
but most Of them seemed content to
leave the problem in his hands, profess
ing the belief that the American peo-
pie were behind him in whatever he

one called out as the president, with his
hand in overeoat pocket, shifted from
one foot to the other, as he tried to
keep warm and looked as anxious to get
into action as the crowd would have
him.
Ceremony Was Simple.
At the conclusion of the formal cere-
mony there was brief cheer from the
thousands and the president began the
delivery of his address.
While speaking, he kept on his tall
silk hat.
The wind prevented his works reach
ing far into the crowd and between the
wind and noise of the crowd, few heard

oath.
The simple rites enacted were the
same as those of yesterday, when the
president first swore to follow out the
duties of his office in his room at the

The president stood before Chief Jus
