death gloriously IS recounted by the
French newspapers. His name was
Meets, and he was secretary of group
Of letter carriers who refused to sign
the German formula of voluntary"
service and would not be coerced into
working for the Germans. He was
convicted with three other letter CIR
ners Of belonging to an espionage or
ganization and sentenced to be shot
The trial took place in the chamber Of
the Belgian senate at Brussels, and It
- certain, the French commenters say,
that q more noble or touching address
was never uttered In that historic tenn
pie Of eloquence than that made by the
humble Meets to his judges after hear
ing his doom pronounced.
II have nothing to add to my testi-
mony, nothing to reveal" he said, nor
do 1 regret anything except that
could not do more for my country. I
do not ask pardon for myself, but do
crave your indulgence for the others.
The sacrifice Of my own life I make
gladly. There are so many Belgians at
the front bravely doing their duty We
should all follow their example uncom-
plainingly."
All four men faced the firing squad
with great calmness, fully resigned to
their fate.

CLOTHES OF THE FRENCH
SOLDIER INSURE WARMTH
His Dimensions Considerably In
creased When He Wears

Although France is undergoing one
Of the severest winters that has occur

war, says Henry Wood in a message
to the Exchange Telegraph company.
according to the Pail Mall Gazette.
Warmth, both internally and exter-
nally, is the keynote Of Frances care
Of her troops. A French soldier, cloth
ed in all the garments which the gov
eminent provides and requires to be
worn in winter, has his general dimen-
sions increased by several inches in
nearly all directions.
The first article of clothing which
French soldier must now put on, and
which is absolutely obligatory, is his
wooden cholera belt. He next dons q
suit of wooden underwear and is re-
quired to have at all times with him
three pairs Of wooden socks, so that
his feet may be kept not only warm,
but dry. The war has demonstrated
that it is more dampness than cold
that produces frozen feet. After the
wooden underwear comes the shirt,
then knitted sweater, followed, of
course, by the uniform and overcoat.
Then on top of all this comes the
sheepskin jacket, which every soldier
now has, and wooden neckscarf, steel
helmet (the latter sweat producer

blankets and waterproof slicker CON-
plete the clothing phase of keeping the
poilu warm.
Hot tea has now been added by the
French army to the means Of warming
up the soldiers internally. Tea drink
ing is more or less of an imported GUS
tom in France. As France, however,
wished to be perfectly impartial in Dor
rowing customs from her allies, she
took the English tea and added to it
the Russian custom Of a dash Of rum.
As a rule the soldiers are not any too
fond of tea, but they argue that it is
well worth the while to drink just to
get the favor Of rum that goes with II.
All are unanimous, however, in declar-
ing that the combination certainly does
keep them warm.

Our Indians.

The most probable theory of the
origin of tie American Indian is that
which links the Indian with the Mon
goloids of East Africa, whose physical
characteristics are striking1y similar to
those of the American ab0rigine. Be-
tween the Indian and the japanese
there are many pronounced resem-
blances, and some excellent authorities
are of the opinion that it was from
that eastern race that the Indian orig
inally sprung. If, as some think, the
Eskimos are the best representatives
of the Indian as he was upon his ar
rival here, the theory of the japanese
origin is immensely strengthened, since
the likeness between the Eskimo and
the Japanese is striking.

CHAPTER ~.
First Blood at caIabasas.

Nothing more than De Spain's an
nouncement that he would sustain his
stage-guards was necessary to arouse
a violent resentment at Calabasas and
among the Morgan following. The
grievance against Elpaso was made a
general one along the line. His stage
was singled out and ridden at times
both by Sandusky and Logan-the
really dangerous men Of the Spanish
sinks-and by Gale Morgan and Sas-
soon TO stir up trouble.
All Calabasus knew that Elpaso. If
he had to. would fight, and that the &c.
centric guard was not actually to be
cornered with impunity. Even Logan,
who. like Sandusky, was known to be
without fear and without mercy. felt
at least a respect for Elpaso's short
ened shotgun. and stopped this side
actual hostilitlcs with him. Sassoon,
however. nourished a particular griev.
ance against the medltatiye guard. and
his was one not tempered either by
prudence or calculation. His chance
came one night when Elpaso had un-
wisely allowed himself to be drawn
into a card game at Calabasas inn. FL
paso was VIGOROUSLY a stickler for
square deal at cards. A dispute found
him without a friend in the room. Sas-
soon reached for him with n knife.
McAlpin was the first to get the
news at the barn. He gave first aid to
the helpless guard, and, without dream
ing he could be got to IA surgeon alive.
rushed him in a light wagon to the
hospital at Sleepy Cat, where it was
said that he must have more lives than
a wildcat. Sassoon, not caring to brave

porarlly into hiding. Elpaso, In the
end, justified his old reputation by
making recovery-haltlngly, 1t is

"De SPAIN" Gale Morgan began
bluntly. zone of our men was put off

liminary compliments, and his heavy
voice was bellicose.
De Spain. regarding him undis-
turbed, answered after a little pause:
"Elpaso told me he put man of his
stage last week for fighting"
"No" contradicted Morgan loudly,

"Whats the name of the man FL
paso put of, .JohnY' asked De Spain,
looking ut Lefever.
Morgan hooked his thumb toward
the man standing at his side Here's
the man right here, Dave Sassoon."
Sassoon never looked man in the
face when the man looked at him, cN-
cept by Implication: it was almost i'm
possible, without surprising him, to
catch his eyes with your eyes. He
seemed now to regard De Spain keen
ly. as the latter. still attending to Nor
gan's statement, replied: "Elpaso tells
a pretty straight story"
''Elpaso couldn't tell straight
story if he tried" interjected Sassoon.

passengers they confirm Elpaso. Ac-
cortling to them, Sassoon-' De Spain
looked straight at the accused, was
drunk and abusive, and kept trying to
put some of the other passengers on.
Finally he put his feet In the lap of

man, and Pumperwasser hit him"
Morgan, stepping back from the bar,
waved his hand with an air OF tinallty
toward his inoffensive companion :;
Here is Sassoon, right here-he can
tell the whole story"
"Those fellows were miners" NUT
tered SassoOn. His utterance was
broken. but he spoke fast. They'll

at Lefever's enthusiasm. "Shssoon,"
