When Caroline returned her uncle

feignedly pleased, but regretted that
she mad not been there. HE was such

seeing him here would be almost like

whom we thought were his friends and
ours have left u.s."
Stephen had never been very popular,
and his absence at college still further
reduced the number Of young people
who might be inclined to call. Their
not calling confirmed Caroline's belief
that she and her brother were DELHI
erately Stunned because of their change
in circumstances, and she grew more
sensitive and proudly resentful in con-
sequence. Naturally she turned for
comfort to those who remained faith
ful, the Dunns IN particular. They
were loyal to her. Therefore, with the
intensity Of her nature, she became
doubly loyal TO them. The rector Of
st. Denis dropped in frequently, and
others occasionally, but she was lonely.

against Captain Elisha had been based
upon the latter's acceptance of that ap-
pointment when he should have real

them and disgracing them in the eyes
OF their friends by his uncouth country
ways made her blind to his good quail

AUSTRIAN GROWN
 LONG A WANDERER
Gondon Tit-Bits)

European powers may be pretty hard up when the war comes to an end, and all manner of schemes will probably have to be adopted to scrape money together. Will the royal treasures of the war lord and the Austrian emperor be sold or pawned
 It is interesting to know that the crown donned by the monarch of Aus stria, which was made originally for Stephen of Hungary, some eight cen turtles ago. has been stolen, lost and pawned.
 On one occasion 1t was pilfered by a queen, who fled across the frozen Dan- ube with it, and there, being in need of ready cash, she pawned it for 2,S00 ducats. When it was finally traced and recovered it was placed in for tress in Hungary and guarded night and day.
 At the time of the revolution it was buried in a forest to prevent its being annexed by Austrians, and it remained under the soil for nearly 100 years.
 There is no doubt that this crown would fetch a big price if put up for sale by auction. It is adorned with B fine sapphires, 50 good-sized rubies, l emerald and 33S pearls. The bems are sunken in a. mass of pure gold, and the crown weighs altogether about fourteen pounds.
 There were some very severe storms at Cracow, the Austrian fortress, which was formerly (1320-1609) the capital of Poland. some time before the war. Terrific gales uprooted several trees, one of which was an ancient elm. In the disturbed earth at the foot of the fallen tree the crown worn by former kings of Poland, dating back to the fourteenth century, was found. Tho crown, by the way, has been lost sight of since the middle of the eight senth century.

yesterday which resulted in the Brit ish being pushed back to their defenses east of Villers- -BretoneuX, was hard fought. Early yesterday morning the Germans began a tremendous lombard ment of the allied lines south of the Somme and then moved forward for the attack. The fighting continued throughout most of the day, the main weight of the enemy thrust being against the French at the right of the British. No less than IA German divi- sions were employed in this drive be- tween the Somme and Montdidier and three of these were famous guard units, namely the first guards division, com manded by Prince Eitel Friedrich, the guards of Essatz, and the fourth guards.
 The last named division was oppo- site the British on the south bank of the Somme. Notwithstanding the great advantage which the enemy had in numbers. the British flung off success sion of heavy attacks and held their own, with the exception of the sector cast of Villers- -Bretoneux. Here they were forced back slightly but still re- tained the town.

A KLEPALO CAN BE
 HEARD TWO MILES
(Kansas City Starr

A camp cook whose only means of calling the members of his party was pounding on a pan with a knife handle was unable to make them hear when they were fishing or hunting at any considerable distance from the camp. One of the party to whom he complained thereupon made what he called a ''klepalo."
 The "klepalo" was merely a piece of we'll seasoned oak plank two inches thick, six inches wide and four feet long. Through the center he bored a hole, passed a rope through and suspended the plank from the branch of tree. The cook rang the instrument by striking it with mallet, first on one side and then on the other.
 The man who made the "klepalo" had seen similar contrivances in small Bulgarian villages, where they are used instead of church bells to call the people to worship. A test of the instrument used by the campers showed that in ordinary weather conditions it could be heard two miles.

TRepubIican A. Leased WIre1


 WITH THE BRITISH ARMIES IN FRANCE, April 5.-Hard fighting was proceeding today north and south of Albert as the result of heavy attack by the Germans on the British lines along front of 5000 yards between Aveluy and Dernancourt.
 According to the latest reports, the Germans had succeeded in getting 9 foot hold on a small triangular bit of territory just southwest of Albert which brought the attacking troops close to the Albert-Amiens railway.
 About the time of the assault de1iv- cred against the British on the Albert sector the Germans also sent strong forces against the defenses north of AblainZeville. This offensive move was short lived, however, for the British threw the enemy back with heavy losses.
 It is believed that the German oper- ations about Albert was undertaken mainly for the purpose of getting hold of the railway running southwest to Amiens, but that it had the additional object of strengthening the enemys lines in this zone
 The attack was launched at o'clock after an intense bombardment of the defending position. Six enemy divi- sions were employed in the early hours of the fighting, which was exceedingly bitter. North of Albert the British clung tenaciously to their line. but just to the south the Germans pivoted out from Albert and swung their front westward from Dernancourt until it reached the railway on which the de- lenders were making a gallant stand.
 Both these attacks today, and those delivered below the Somme yesterday, appear to have been merely forerun- ners of what may be termed the ''sec- ond phase of the offensive, when the Germans will strike another great blow with vast forces against some portion of the long battle front.

 One reason for this neglect is the mistaken notion that persimmons are unfit to eat until they have been touched by frost. As much of the best fruit falls before the frost comes. it is left to rot or to be eaten by stock. As matter of fact, it is only late varieties of the persimmon that are not edible until the frost comes. These if eaten beore that time do pucker the mouth and have therefore done much to give

 This is quite untrue. as the depart ment of agriculture points out in re- cent bulletin designed to encourage the use of the persimmon. The ripe per- simmons, as another explorer called 1t, "a delicious little plum" and possesses, besides food value which is unsur- passed only by the date
 Throughout the region where the persimmon grows in abundance it is held in such slight esteem that it is commonly spoken of as good for dogs,

UNIQUE RAT COLONY
(New York World)

Within the last generation a unique rat colony has grown up in south Georgia, a group of bleak and barren islands of about 1000 square miles, in the Atlantic ocean several hundred miles east of Cape Horn. The first rats escaping from a sealing vessel were introduced twenty-five or thirty years ago. They found the best of shelter and have increased enor- mously.

sectors are vital to the allied defense is shown by the stern resistance maintained there in the last two days.
 The dawning of the first anniver- sary of the entry of the United States into the war finds General Pershings veterans somewhere in the battle zone. How many are there, what units have been chosen for the fight and where they will make thelr first appearance is not known. It is probable, however. that an American army of some proportions is either actually in the struggle or is held in reserve immediately behind the lines.
 In spte of the terrific strain to which they have been subjected, the allies have struck at the Germans and have rcgained some ground. One of these points Is near Grivesnes, a short distance northwest of Mont didier, and Noyon, near the village of Orvillers- -Sorel. It is in this lat ter region that the great allied of- fensive is expected to be launched. So far as reported, no infantry at tacks have been made on this front by the Germans, but their artillery has been very active as far east as Noyon. The line on the northern side of the salient also has been bombarded heavily.

 It was announced from Washing ton Friday that Japanese force had been landed at Nladivostol, the east ern terminus of the trans-S Siberian railroad. It is explained that the in- ..asI raHfAl .Oai fal lfer canoe and is not to be looked upon as intervention by the allies in Russia.
 There were artillery engagements in various sectors of Belgium and French fronts outside of the battle area in Picardy.
 The city of Rheims has again been subjected to bombardment by the Germans. In no sector, however has there been infantry fighting of an unusual nature. In Italy there has been only the usual patrol activity.
 A report from Berlin states that German and Turkish troops have forced British infantry and cavalry to retreat in the region north of Jericho.
 Critical Point Approaching
 WASHINGTON, April 5.-Develop- ment of the second phase of the German drive in Picardy was watch ed closely here today, army officers apparently feeling that the critical point of the great struggle is rap idly approaching. Meager officia reports gave little information e which to base definite opinions aS to the trend of the fighting, though it seemed evident that the Germans were trying to force a foothold 1T strategic positions before Amiens ant at the same time to increase pres sure against the junction point be- tween the French and British armies
 Under the new policy laid dowr by Secretary Baker, the war depart ment again had nothing to add tt official reports from London ant Paris on the battle.
