WAR SUFFERING

Declaring that it was impossible to describe how badly the wounded are torn to pieces, pr. C. B. Palmer con nected with base hospital number s somewhere in France has written Mrs. Palmer of the terrible suffering exist ing abroad.
 Connected with the New York post graduate medical Corps, Dr. Palmer went to the front early in August X graduate of Johns Hopkins and liar yard and with years of experience as a practicing physician, he claims not to have been familiar with such pain as he has witnessed since he has been across the sea. The course of treat ment accorded the wounded he declares is totally different from any employed ir this country, the methods being en- tirely new. pr. Palmer writes that while there is a sufficient number Of nurses abroad there are fewer physi- clans. The latter are under more Ct less military rule and to come in con tact with the wounded at first hand are ordered to the trenches for certain period.

DROUTH CATTLE
 TO BE BROUGHT
 ID THIS STATE

Starving in the drouth stricken re- ston of Southwestern Texas, one mil lion cattle are to be moved from those grasselss acres by the Food Adminis- l tration in order that the cattle may be ! saved. The railroads have been ap- pealed to in the grave emergency to l rush all cars possible to secure to those districts.
 The first appeal to the railroads was made some time ago, and a second one l was sent in on November 15. In an sWer to the appeal, the Santa Fe rail- ! road already has sent 4,500 cars to that l fegioh, some of them coming from the eastern railroads. but mostly from the 1 western roads. Even this great num- Der of stock cars has not materially ] relieved the grave situation, so 1t is reported.
 Many cattle have been brought into i Arizona from the dry acres of Texas. l but many thousand head are still in the drOuth stricken state. The Food 1 administration has wired Robert Gib- { son, secretary of the Texas Cotton Seed Crushers' association, that it is the duty of the mills and of the dealers not to send any cotton seed outside of the state as it all is needed for feed for cattle in that region.
 - lie seriousness or the situation ndS been exaggerated in some sections, as there is no general drouth in Texas 1 The dry area extends from Fort Worth west on both sides of the Texas Pacific railroad to Fl PasO and into south eastern New Mexico. The northern fine turns north of San Antonio, to the east about 100 miles mad then south nearly to the coast country.
 Arizona has been much more for tunate in regard to the condition of the range than New Mexico. Cattle anC sheep from New Mexico have beer steadily coming into this state for the past two months. The part of Texas south of Sweetwater and west of Sar Antonio to the coast and into south eastern New Mexico is the real droutE country. This area measures more thar the entire area of Arizona
 The rainfall in that district has beer insufficient for the past two years and herds have been cut down accord. ingly, yet in that area, according to tn, Food Administration, there are on, million cattle that will have to b, moved or they will not survive

THE MUSHER WHO BROUGHT
 THE GOLD

If the story of Bob Griffith, the man who brought the half million Of gold from Iditarod, could be told as it really is it would make a tale ol thrilling interest.
 Bob came to Forty Mile, Alaska, first in 1889. Before that he had been driving stage in the Black Hills and in other wild places. While en- gagged in that work he was held up several times. Twenty-eight years ago he hit out for the Alaska wilder ness and got to Fortymile. At that time only fifty men were in that part of the country and they were engag- ed rocking on the bars, making good money. Only one steamboat piled on the Yukon river and one season that boat got on bar down near the mouth. Jack McQueSten who was aboard sent Indian runners out across country to inform the Fortymile miners and this Indian kept going till he found another who took up the running. The course of these run ners was by the head of the Panama river but the news got to the white men and they started down stream to get provisions. This was called Starvation year on the Fortymile. In 1892 Mir. Griffith was sent for to drive a tally-ho at the Worlds rajr in Chicago and he left Fortymile in polling boat for the great journey He boiled all the way up to Lake Linderman and went out Ovec the Chilkoot Pass. At Five Finger Rap ids the boat was portrayed oveT the big bluff at the left hand side of the rapids, going down. At WhiJehorSe rapids the boat was lined up on the same side and portrayed over the famous canon. After the Fair Bob again hit out for the FOrtymile and was there when the Klondike was struck. Today he has a store in the Tolstoi, a summer mail contract which he fills with his own boat for the Iditarod. and at the same time packs millions in dog teams over the trails. The number of miles travelled by him over the Alaska trails would make a journey far greater than that around the world. When questioned about the possibility of hoIdup of gold trains on the Alaska trails, like those in the Black Hills days, Bob said: They'd be crazy to try it.'

CHAPTER XIV.

K. spent all of the evening of that
day with Wilson. He was not to go for
Joe until eleven o'clock. The injured
mans vitality was standing him in
coed stead. He had asked for Sidney
and she was at his bedside. Doctor Ed
had gone.
X. found Sidney in the room, not sit
ting, but standing by the window. The
sick man was doing. One shaded light
burned in a far corner. She turned
slowly and met his eyes. 1t seemed to
K. that she looked at him as if she had
never really seen him before, and he
was right. Readjustments are always
difficult.
Sidney was trying to reconcile the x.
she had known so well with this new
f., no longer obscure, although still
shabby, whose height had suddenly be-
come presence, whose quiet was the
auiet Of infinite power.
She was suddenly shy Of him, a. he
stood looking down at her. He saw
the eieam Of her engagement ring on
|hee Eager. It seemed almost defiant.

was very dim. Far away was the night

ator, its pile Of records. The passage
floor reflected the light on glistening
boards.

most crazy, X. And now know how
1t happened. It was Joe.'
1.-THE principal thing is. not how It
happened, but that he is going to get
well, Sidney"
She stood looking down, twisting her
ring around her finger.
"Is Joe in any danger?"
1--WE are going to get him away to-
night. He wants to go to Cuba. He'll
get off safely, think"

You are, you mean. You shoulder all

"Oh, see. You mean-but my part In

up the money. My total capital in the
world, after paying for the machine
today, fs seven dollars"
