LONDON. Oct. 10.-The Austrians

"ouR MILITARY VISITORS"

Camp Hancock now has it's quota of
French and British soldiers, who have
come across the water to show us some
things about real fighting. Among them
there are several officers, some non-com-
u1issioned officers, and a few prfvates
In all the instruction of these men there
is the outstanding principle that methods
of warfare have been completely reyolu
tionized by this war. The old tactics are
giving way to newer ones which have been
devised to cope with the ingenious war
fare of the enemy.
One of the French officers was looking
at trench on the drill ground. 1t was
built shallow and wide, and straight A
glance or two and the officer threw up
his hands with the remark:
All! avery good trench-fOr a pic
ture. But for war-ah! no good"
One of the Britishers expressed his
opinion of American patriotism as fol-
lows;
you know we've been told over there
that America is just half hearted in this
war. They told us at least half were
pro-GerInans. We didn't expect to find
any enthusiasm for the war at all. But
let me tell you, we found it, America is
ALL for the war. You've got plenty of
everything, including the enthusiasm"
He added, however. that over in Eng
land, after the war had gone on a year
or so, the enthusiasm was replaced by
a feeling that war was a business, and
not something only to yen about.
America win feel that way too, after
while" he concluded.

Captain Fallon related numerous

New Worthwhile invaluable service
has been rendered by the Young Mems

now furthering in national army can
tonments in the United States are the
most important it has ever undertaken

Excellent as the Young Mems Chris

lieve thta now in the great canton
ments where out troops are being train
ed it is perhaps the greatest and best
it has ever attempted.
One has to see it to appreciate it..
We must give the men places of the
right type to so to. places where the
healthy amusements and decent sur
roundings, as well as reasonable re-
Grafton, can be had. This is where
the Young Mems Christian Association
has won, perhaps, it's. best results. 1t
has not only helped suppress vice and
evil doing, but it has given the men
attractive places of assembly and
wholesome amusement.
Every dollar given to the Young
Mems Christian Association is money
given in a good cause. All who aid
it are helpers in a splendid work"

liked Toxic. His English was too in
sufferably blunt. He turned away to
hide his feelings.
In the hall stood Pearl wringing her
hands. The hopelessness of 1t all was
written on her face. 1t was plain that
the colonel had told her everything.
II must see him-alone," she said
piteously, approaching the major.
Brent simulated sympathy.
1.-THE colonel and 1 must return to
the war department at once. Why not
walt"
She interrupted with a determined
shake off her head. "Toko will drive
me to The barracks after he drops you
off,"
And that ended 1t. She went.
1t was arranged at the last moment
so that Colonel Dare could leave the
all-night conference OF the staff and
accompany her, for the visit was nee
essarily to be brief and there
were some details for him alone to
settle at the barracks where at day
break he was TO preside over the for
NAL dismissal scenes of the court-mar-
tailed officer.
She felt grateful for her fathers sup

er had she entered Captain Payne's
quarters and found herself alone with
him than there came TO her the

unable to resist the fling, for she was
filled with no little curiosity concern
ing the locket mystery.
"Never," said he, glanclng apprais-
ingly at her through his horn-rimmed
spectacles. He was stOop-shouldered
and bald-headed.
: Bertha turned away, now laughing
outright, and asked the night porter
something about early morning trains.
Just before retiring she happened to
look down upon the thoroughfare and
saw the Dare automobile containing
only the familiar visaged Toxic rush
ing by. She wondered why the cur
was out at that late time and whittier
1t was bound. An hour later the car
again passed the Wilton hotel, but by
this time Bertha was sound asleep.
The automobile on its return trip
was not empty, however. In it were
Colonel Dare and Major Brent proceed
ing to the formers residence from a
secretly convened court-martial of
Captain Payne.
1t was obvious that this was no hap
by homecoming when the car stopped
before the Dare door. Toxic stood
aside a trifie more deferential than
usual while the officers descended.
The colonel seemed suddenly to have
aged. His eyes lacked luster. In con-
trast to the extremely unctuous major
at his elbow, the proud bearing of this
popular regimental commander was
not manifest.
Toxic, with an air of understanding,
unobtrusively preceded them into the
house, which for the moment apparent
ly was deserted.
Brent passed into the library. On
the wall hung a splendid painting of
Payne. His eyes were riveted upon it.
But in them there was no pity. A
strange uneasiness permeated his
senses. Turning, he found Toxic, hest
tating to approach, yet with an evil
dent question on his lips.
"What is it, Toko?"
Toxic pointed to the portrait. His
usually inscrutable face was express
sive of real regret.
"What was the charge against the
captainT
"He sold q valuable army secret to
an enemy country, Toxic" Major Brent
gruffly replied. "To Granada"
"Will he be shotT
Brent shook his head. "The proof,
while quite conclusive, was circum-
stantial. He has been sentenced to
life Imprisonment in the federal peni-
Tertiary. He will be dismissed from
the army at sunrise"
81 liked Captain Payne" said Toxic,
after a pause. "He was my friend"
He gave Brent another uncomfortable
look. ~ don't believe that he was
guilty."
Brent became furious for no very
explainable reason. He never had
