CHASTITY Bayonet Duel.
Mr.. de Turenne describes the fol-

eye Witness
at was in the early times of this
terrific struggle. Somewhere in Flan-
ders the trenches stood only 200 yards
on the other the Germans. The Ger
mans had attempted counter-attack,
and as 1t was getting dark they were
forced to retire, with great losses, leav-
ing the dead and wounded on the field.
Amid this awful carnage two men only
remained, Frenchman and a German.
They were engaged in a bayonet duel,
one trying to kill the other. They
were both dancing around in circles
like demons, thrusting and stabbing
right and left. One had to go, and
they fought. 1t was practically dark
by this time. The pale moon shone a
sickly reflection on these two human
beings. Their features We're drawn
and haggard, their eyes flashed and
bulged out of their orbits, the ex-
preston on their faces was CHASTITY
that of utmost despair. And still they
danced, each fighting for his existence,
when all of a sudden this uncanny per-
Torrance came to an abrupt stop.
There was a sharp click, a thrust and
muffled sound. Both bayonets went
home, both men stood transflXed. both
fell dead to the ground"

PARKS WILL NOT
CLOSE On ACCOUNT
OF WORLD WAR
Office of tho Secretary.

When asked whether the national
parks are to be closed TO visitors dur
ing the season Of 1917, Secretary Lane
stated that the persistent rumors that
have been current for the past few
days, particularly in the middle west.
that no such action was to be taken
by tn Interior Department, have alb
solutely no foundation in facts. All
the parks are to he opened at the US
ual time.
The Secretary believes that the en-
trance of the United States into the
war will not materially affect west
ern tourist travel, and expressed the
conviction that the national parks will
be quite as well patronied this year
as they have been during the past two
years, when upwards of 100000 peo-
pie visited them. He pointed out that
it is even more important now than in

tally of the Nations citizenship be
conserved, that rest and recreation
must materially assist in this conser-
walton of human tissue and energy
and that the mountainous regions of
the national parks offer opportuni-
ties in abundance for thoroughly en-
joying vacation of long or short
duration.
The Interior Department has TAX
en- effective steps to put the parks on
a par with the best-equipped summer
resorts in the world, and already tran
sportation and hotel accommodations
in several of them have reached this
standard. The splendid hotel system
