Johnny Chuck Spends a Bad
Night.

When Johnny Chuck found that all
his hard work must go for nothing
all on account of that big rock under
the place where he had started to
build his house he had a At of temper.
guess you know what a At Of temper
Is. If you never had one yourself.
and I hope you never have. you prob
ably have seen some one else have
one. 1t isn't nice thing to see. It
is even worse to have.
1t is a good thing that no one was
around to see Johnny Chuck when
he had made certain that all his work
fit of temper. You remember that he
was feeling very much out of sorts
anyway and that it had been a very
long time since he had done any such
hard work as digging a house in
which to live. Then to have such
hard luck and have to give up and
begin all over again was more than
he could stand.
When he got over mis- At of temper
1t was after jolly, round. red Mr.. Sun
had gone to bed behind the Purple
Hills. Johnny is one of those little
people who like to go to bed with
the coming of the first Black Shadows,
or bed to go to. The knowledge that
it was all his own fault didn't make
him feel any better about it. But so
obstinate was he that not even to
himself would he admit that he was
sorry he had left home and Polly
Chuck.
The coming of the Black Shadows
gave him a creepy feeling. Being in
strange place added to this feeling
and made him keep looking over his

F0CH'S STROKE THE MOST
BRILLIANT OF THE WAR

LONDON. August Cen. Foch by
his counter stroke had driven the enemy
back. and although the danger was not
over. 'he would be sanguine man on
the German general staff who would now
predict that Germany could obtain mill
tary victory" said Premier Lloyd George
today. The premier characterized Gen.
foch's counter offensive as 1.-The most
brilliant in the annals of war
The Germans. declared the premier,
had attempted their land offensive be-
cause the submarine offensive had
failed.
Mr.. Lloyd George stated that dur
ing the month of July 305,0OO Ameri-
can troops had been brought over,
$4,000 of them in British ships.
Since August, 1914, including those
already with the colors. Great Britain
alone. said the premier. ha draised
for the army and navy 6.250,000 men.
for the most part voluntarily. The
dominions had contributed 100000
me nand India 1.25O.0O0 men.
One hundred and fifty German sub
marines have been destroyed, Mr..
Lloyd George announced, more than
half of them in the last year.
Until all the allies were defeated at
sea, Mr.. Lloyd George declared, Ger
many could never triumph. The pre-
mier was speaking in the house of
commons, making a statement on the
war situation. The house will adjourn
tomorrow until October Is.

ELKINS AND WATSON
LEAD IN WEST VIRGINIA

WHEELING. W. Va, August L.
The result OF the statewide primary
election held in West Virginia yes
terday is still in doubt. despite the
operation of the new double election
board system. Out OF 1.7s0 precincts
in the IS counties only 507 have been
reported. The delay is said to be
due to the congested telephone and,
telegraph lines. Only one county has
thus far made its full return. Ohio

While both former Senator Davis
Elkins and Virgil Highland claim the
republican nomination for United
States senator, the face Of the returns
shows Elkins leading Highland by
sixty-seven votes. James A. Hughes
and Joseph H. Gaines, both former
congressman, have practically been
eliminated from the senatorial race.
In the democratic contest the race
is not SO close. With 43T precincts

BEALL OUT ON BAIL.

Okla, Authorities.

Rignald W. Beall. arrested on q
telegram from the sheriff Of Tulsa
Okla, on a charge Of being fugitive
from justice, was released on $1,000
bonds today to appear August 16 to
answer any Indictment that may be
sent here against him.
The nature Of the charge against

being restrained Of his liberty solely
upon the telegraphic request.
Justice Hitx issued the writ making

Beall was arrested on teleSraphic
request from W. W. Mccullough. sher.

shoulder to see if an enemy was
creeping up with those black Shad-
ows to spring on him from behind.
He hurried along the old stone wall.
first this way and then that, hoping
to find place where he could be both
comfortable and safe for the night.
But the only place he could find was
the place in which he had first rested
after his journey across the Old Or
chard.
"It might be worse" muttered
Johnny,ia he curled up for the night
Then again it might be better" he
really comfortable position.
But he couldn't get comfortable
position. He was very tired and
ached all over from the hard work
he had done. He ought to have drop
ped right off to sleep. But he couldn't.
the hardness sof his bed and the
thought that on the morrow he would
have to do all that hard work over
again kept him awake. Then. too.
he imagined all sorts of things. 1t
seemed to him that Hooty the Owl
kept hooting just out Of pure mean
ness to keep him awake. How could
any one be expected to go to sleep
with such a noise ringing in. his
ears? You see. in his old home john
nys bedroom was SO far down in the
ground that Hooty never disturbed
him. But here in the old stone wall
there was nothing to shut out Hooty's
terrible voice. So it set Johnny to
shiverirg and shaking.
Once Bowser the Hound came sniff
ing along the old wall. He didn't
come quite to where Johnny Chuck
was, so he didn't smell him. If he
had he would probably have tried to
pull the old wall down to get at
Johnny, and Johnny would have had
worse fright than he did have.
But it was bad enough as it was. and
