John, came out upon the stage. The
French -dramatist, with his hands be-
hind his back. made swift mental notes
Of an interesting situation. He saw
the coming Of a man who stood like q
giant among them, sunburnt, buoyant
with health, his eyes bright with the
wonder of his unexpected surround
ings; man in whose presence every
one else seemed to represent an effete
and pallid type of humanity. ~.r
Those first few sentences, spoken In
the midst Of a curious little crowd Of
strangers, seemed to John, when he
thought of his long waiting, almost pit
eously inadequate. Louise, recognize
ing the difficulty Of the situation, swift

both tactful and gracious. .,,,~t p,
"Mr. Faraday," she said appealingiH,
.::Mr.. Strangewey comes from the coun=
try-he is, in fact, the most complete
countryman I have ever met, in; my
life. He comes from Cumberland, and
he once-wcll, very nearly saved my
life. He knows nothing about the
aters, and he hasn't the least idea Of
the Importance of a rehearsal. You
won't mind if we put him, somewhere
out of the way till we have finished,
will you?" G 49,.

claimed. 'Let me introduce him quick

John bowed in various directions,
and Faraday, taking him good-natured-

at the back Of the stage.
"There!' he said. ''You are one of
the most privileged persons in London.
You shall hear the finish of our re-
hearsal. There isn't press man in
London I'd have near the place."
Twenty-four hours away from his
silent hills John looked out with puz-
zled eyes from his dusty seat among
ropes and puHeys. and leaning frag.
ments of scenery. What he saw and
heard seemed ito him, for the most
part, meaningless tangle of gestures
and phrases. The men and women in
fashionable clothes, moving about be.
fore that gloomy space of empty audi.
forum, looked more like marionettes
than creatures Of flesh and blood
drawn this way and that at the bidding
Of the stout, masterful -Frenchman
who was continually muttering excla
nations and banging the manuscript
upon his hand, It seemed like dream
picture, with unreal men and womer
moving about aimlessly, saying strangt

ARMR TO FIGHT GERMANS
MAI SOON BE NEEDED

Atlanta, March 24.-That the boys
who went from this city to the Next
can border with various National
Guard organizations will not be at
home for very long when they return
in the next few days, but will probably
be drafted back into active service in
very short time as the result of war
between the United States and Ger
many is the opinion Of their friends
as the result of rapid developments
in Washington, and the prediction
made yesterday in Atlanta by United
States Senator Hoke Smith that war
with Germany is certain and that it
will be war on a prodigious scale,
involving the organization of very
large volunteer army. Many young
Atlantians who are officers in the
Fifth Regiment of this city and other
National Guard organizations are am
bilious to secure commissions in the
regular army, and it is believed the
developments of the near future will
open the way for them, as Uncle Sam
will need trained officers more than
he will need men to fill the ranks.

RAILROADS COMPLAINING OF
PAYING HEAVY TAXES

Atlanta, March 24.-That the rail
roads pay IA cents out of every dollar
of earnings for taxation, as compared
with taxes of cents out of every dol
lar ten years ago, is fact to which
Atlanta railroad officials call attention
in connection with the pending S-hour
day controversy and the general rail
road situation throughout the country.
That railroad earnings have not kept
pace with the increase in railroad ex-
penses is now generally admitted, and
is one of the principal factors respon-
sible for the present traffic congestion.
The railroads contend that they sim
ply cannot get the money from in
vestors to provide facilities which will
keep abreast of the country's COM
merce, when confronted with the con-
stantly growing demands of national,
state county and municipal govern
ments for more taxes; and confronted
moreover with the demands of organ
lied labor for one wage increase after
another, and with other additions in
the general costs of operation.
