Scheme Fooled by Police.

One of the most ingenious contri.
vances for taking the risk out Of rou-
lette ever brought to the notice Of the
police fell into the hands of the New
York department when a raid was
made on a rooming house in West
Sixty-first street. 1t had been intend
ed by an exclusive group Of individ-
uals that a certain wealthy mining
man was to have a chance at winning
about 90 cents. When the group
staged the gambling apparatus they
half expected that they would win
million of the mining mans money.
but they failed to overcome certain
details. There was an electric device
attached to the wheel by which the
revolving disk could be brought to
an instant stop on any desired num-
Der by the pressure of a button I'M
der the table. The police stepped in
through window just as the wealthy
man was about to make a plunge and
confiscated the outfit.

CHAPTER XIV.
The CroIx de Cuerre.

When we had been on the shore
for about three weeks we found our
selves one morning somewhere neal
Sedd-el-Bahr under the heaviest fire
/ ever experienced. Our guns and the
Turks were at IL full blast, and the
noise was worse than deafening.
A section of my company was lying
out in a shell hole near the commu-
nication trench with nothing to dc
but wait for shell to find them. We
were stiff and thirsty and uncomfort.
able, and had not slept for two nights
slant fire and had stood of several
raidlng parties and small attacks from
enemy trenches.
We had no sooner got used to the
shell hole and were making ourselves
as comfortable as possible In il when
along came a shell of what must have
been the Jack johnson size. and we
were swamped. We had To dig three
of the men out, and though one of
them was badly wounded we could not
send him back TO the hospital. In
fact, the Smelling was so heavy that
none of us ever expected to come out
Of IL alive.
So, II was like keeping your own
death watch, with the shells tuning
up for the dirge. Ii was impossible to
listen to the shells. If you kept your
mind on the noise for any length OF
time IL would split your eardrums, l
am sure. So all we could do was to
lay low in the shell hole and wait for
something TO happen.
Then they began using shrapnel on
us, and one OF our machine gunners,
who got up from his knees TO change
position. had his head taken clean on
his shoulders, and the rest of him
landed near my feet and squirmed a
little. like chicken that had just been
killed. Ii was awful TO see the body
without any head move around that
way, and we could hardly make our
selves touch II for some time. Then
we rolled II to the other side of the
hole.
Then. TO one side OF us, there was
a more violent explosion than any yet.
The earth spouted up and fell on us,
and big clouds of black smoke. sliding
along the ground. covered our shell
hole and hung there for some time.
One of our sergeants, from the regular
French infantry. said II was shell
from a Turkish 155-mm. ts=.----.

so began hunting for him, and after
alive. His chest was all smashed In
and he was badly cut up around the
neck and shoulders. l picked him up
and started back, but ran into some
barbed wire and had TO go around.
l was pretty tired by this time and
awfully thirsty, and thought II did
not rest a little bit could never make

l did not care much whether ! did
get back or not. and the wounded
garby was groaning all the time.
SO when l thought the shells were

shell hole and II was the same one
had left not long before. The dead
garby was there just as had left him.
The wounded one was bleeding all
over. and my clothes were Just soaked
with blood from the three men, but
most OF all from him. There was some
OF my own blood on me, too, for when
was knocked down by the shell my
nose bled and kept bleeding for long
time, but, OF course. that was nothing
compared to the bleeding of the
others.
The worst of all was that he kept
groaning for water. and II made me
thirstler than had been. even. But
there was not a drop OF water any
where and l knew there was no use
searching any bodies for TASKS. So
We Just had TO stick II out. Pretty
soon the wounded man quit groaning
and was quiet, and knew he was
going TO die too. II made me mad 10

A LOYAL CONGRESSMAN.

President Wilson seems to have
rather definitely settled much moot
ed question by his opposition to the
candidacy for reelection of Congress-
man Slayden of Texas. which resulted
in that gentleman Withdrawing from
the race. Mr.. Slayden voted for both
the Conscription Bill and the Declara-
ton of War, but had a consistent anti
preparedness record and voted against
the Kahn Amendment substituting the
selective draft for the volunteer sys-
TEN in the ConscriptiOn Bill
There has been much discussion as
TO whether a Congressman's loyalty or
war record should be judged accord
ing to the way he voted on the Dec
laration of War and has voted since,
or whether his opposition TO ante-war
measures looking to the military eff
cheney of the country should be count
ed against him. President Wilson APP
pears to have answered the question.
In line with this viewpoint as to the
war fitness Of a Congressman the Ma
tional Security Leagues Congressional
Campaign Committee has just issued
chart giving the record of the votes
of all the members of the House OF
Representatives In the Sixty-fourth
and SiXty-fifth Congresses on the eight
principal preparedness and war meas
ures, from the McLemOre Resolution
TO the Kahn Amendment. The Securi-
~ Leagues committee analyses the
chart by individuals and by states. II
shows that Of the 374 men who sat in
both Congresses only AZ voted right
ON all eight measures; that 7 voted
wrong on all eight, % wrong on seven
Of the measures, 30 wrong on six and
81 wrong on five.
North Dakota heads the bad record
list with percentage OF 1910 wrong
votes. Colorado is a close second with
q percentage OF 1912.
These figures clearly indicate that
there is decided room for improvement
In the present constitution OF Con
gress and make an unanswerable argu-
ment for the support OF the National
Security Leagues campaign for a 100
per cent loyal Congress by all patriot
ie citizens, irrespective OF politics.

After what seemed long time l came
upon wounded man, but he was not
the one / was after. thought about
"a bird In theJhand." etc. and was just
starting TO pick this chap up when
n shell burst almost on us and
knocked me two or three feet away.
II Is wonder II did not kill both
OF US, but neither Of us was hurt. l
thought the fire would get heavier
then, so l dragged the other chap into
one OF two holes made by the shell.
Some pieces Of the shell had stuck
into the dirt In the hole and they were
still hot. Also, there was sort Of
gas there that hung around for sew
erM minutes, but IL was not very bad
The man began talking to me, and
he said IL was an honor to lie on the
field OF battle with leg shot of and
dead men piled all about you, and
some not dead but groaning. He told
me i would soon be able to hear the
grooming, though I had not said
minded II, or anything about IL. Then
he said again what an honor II was,
and asked II / had n drink for him.
I had not had any water all day. and
i told him so. but he kept on asking
for II all the same. Some OF the Turk
ish borsbers must have sneaked up
pretty close TO our lines. for when /
looked out of the hole toward our
lines, and a shell burst near them,
I could see a Turk coming toward us.
We played dead then. but / had my
bayonet ready for him in case he had
seen us and decided to come up TO the
hole. Evidently he had not. for when
he got near the hole he steered to the
side and went around.
The other garby was cheerful when
he was not asking for water. but you
could see he was going fast SO we sat

Limeys, An,aes and poIlus.

One night. while we were expectinl
an attack. the word was passed dowr
the line 90 have the wire cutters ready
and TO use bayonets only for the FRS
part Of the attack. for We were to tr,
and take the first enemy trench by
surprise. The first trench was only
about eighty yards away. Our big guns
opened up and at zero we climbed out
and followed the curtain OF fire too
closely, IL seemed TO me.
But the barrage stopped too soon.
as II does sometimes. and there were
plenty of Turks left. We were half
way across when they saw us, and
they began banging away at us very
hard. They pounded at us as we came
on until We were given the order to
retire, almost as we were on them
what was left OF us.
A we turned and started back the
Turks rushed out 10 counter-attack us.
the first OF them busy with bombs.
Then l trlpped over something and
rolled around while and then saw
II was Philippe Pierre. His left leg
was dangling, cloth and flesh and all
shot away and the leg hanging TO the
rest OF him by a shred. Two or three
of our men who were on their way
back 10 our trenches tripped over me
as | tried to get up, and then a shell
exploded near by and l thought l had
got II sure. but II was only the rocks
thrown up by the explosion.
Finally l was able To stand up. So
l slung my rifle over one shoulder
and got Philippe Pierre up on tn,
other with his body from the waist
Up hanging over my back. so that
/ could hold his wounded leg on, and
started back. There was only one or
two OF our men left between the
trenches. Our machine guns were at
II hard and the Turks were firing and
bombing at full speed.
l had not gone more than two or
three PAGES when l came across
another OF our men. wounded In sew
eral places and groaning away at n
great rate. Philippe Pierre was not
saying word, but the other chap
did enough for the two of them. One
wounded man was all could manage,
with my rifle and pack, over the rough
ground and the barbed wire | had to
go through. So l told this fellow,
whose name cannot remember-I
never did know him very well-that l
would come back for him, and went
on. I almost fell several times, but
managed to get through safely and
rolled over our parapet with Philippe
Pierre. They started the lad back I'm
stretcher right away. When l saw
him again he gave me "A little box as
a souvenir. but have lost Il.
The Turks had not got very far with
their counter-attack, because we were
able 10 get our barrage going In time
10 check them. But they were still out
In front of their trenches when
started back after the other garby.
l was not exactly afraid as crawled
along searching for the other man,
but l was very thirsty and nervous
for fear our barrage would begin
again or the machine guns cut loose.
