thing has happened. He was in my

No one said anything. The council
looked at a loss, rather like flock OF
sheep confronting some strange ami

II would have shot myself" said
Milky Larisch, 'but it was too easy"
Then, rather at a loss as to the
exact etiquette of arresting ones self,
he bowed slightly and waited.
The door into the kings bedchanber
opened. The chancellor came through,
his face working. It closed behind
him.

ing angry groups. AS the groups grew
large, each drum led It's followers
toward the government house, where,
on the steps, the revolutionary party
harangued the crowd. Bonfires sprang
up built Of no one knew what, In the
public squares. Red fire burned. The
drums throbbed.
The city had not yet risen. 1t was
large and slow to move. Slow, too, to
believe in treason, or that 1t had no
king. But 1t was matter Of mo-
ments now, not of hours.
The noise penetrated into the very
wards Of the hospital. Red fires bathed
pale faces on their pillows in fever
ish glow. Nurses gathered ut the WIN
doys. their uniforms and faces alike

gether.
One such group gathered near the
bedside of the student Haeckel, still
in his lethargy. His body had gained
strength. SO that he was clothed at
times. to wander aimlessly about the
ward. But he had remained dazed.
Now and then the curtain Of the past
lifted. but for a moment only. He had
forgotten his name. He spent long
hours struggling to pierce the mist.
But mostly he lay, or sat, as now,
beside his bed, a bandage still on his
head. clad In shirt and trousers, bare
feet thrust into worn hospital slippers.
The red glare had not reused him, nor
yet the beat Of the drums. But word
or two that one of the nurses spoke

Old Adelbert had been working his
way impatiently. The temper OF the
mob was growing ugly. 1t was
suspicious, frightened, potentially dam
gerous. The cry of 'To the palace !"
greeted his ears as he finally emerged
breathless from the throng.
He stepped boldly to the old stone
archway, and faced a line Of soldiers

he gasped, and saluted.
The captain of the guard stepped
out. "What is it you want?" he de-
manded.
1.-THE chancellor" he lowered his
voice. 81 have news Of the crown
prince"
Magic words, indeed. Doors opened
swiftly before them. But time was
flying, too. In his confusion the old
man had only one thought, to reach
the chancellor. 1t would have been
better to have told his news at once.
The climbing Of stairs takes time when
one is old and fatigued, and has but
one leg.
However, at last 1t was done, and
old Adelbert stumped to the door OF
the room where the council sat de-
batting and the chancellor paced the
floor.
Small ceremony now. Led by sol
diers, who retired and left him to enter
alone, old Adelbert stumbled into the
room. He was out of breath and
dizzy; his heart beat to suffocation.
There was not air enough in all the
world to breathe. He clutched at the
velvet hangings Of the door, ana
swnyed, but he saw the chancellor.
"The crown prince" he said thick

While the birthday supper was at
it's height, in the bureau Of the con-

despairing. That very day had he
learned to what use the committee
would pu. the information he had
given them, and his old heart was
dead within him. One may not be

become a traitor.

UNIVERSAL TRAINING

The advocates of universal military training for the future would get a more respectful hearing if they left out the military. The majority of Americans, civilians and soldiers alike, are not much interested at tenance of great armies hereafter. They think, rightly or wrongly, that the war has ended that sort of thing, and we shall have no need of millions of trained fighters.
 At the same time there is a strong CT feeling than ever before for public service and discipline, and a better appreciation of the wholesome physi- can and moral effects that come as by-products of the military life un- der American conditions. It might be possible to preserve these benefits and pass them along to our boys as { they reach military age, without pre- serving te less pleasant and less de- sirable things usually associated with strictly military life.
 If there is to be no more trench digging or bayonet-fighting, why teach boys to dig trenches and fight with bayonets? Teach them the more practical "thines, for the pro- ductive work of peace rather that the destructive work of war. Something on the Boy Scout plan, but on a mans scale. So the ordinary citizen argues; and he is probably right about it.
 We have all the cantonments, avi- ation fields, etc. What are we going to do with them? Dismantle most of them, leaving only enough to take care of small standing army? It seems a pity. Could they not be adapted to some new system of in- struction which would take all our young men for a short period and make them sturdy, straight, self reliant and loyal Americans, as our army corps have done, while teaching them nothing that will not be useful in peaceful world?
 They would naturally get many military fundamentals, so that if men were wanted for the army at any time they would provide better ma terial than ever.-Arizona Gazette.

GRAZING FEES RAISED
 ON NATIONAL FORESTS

Albuquerque, N. M Notice has been received at A1bunuerque bv the District Forester that the question of charges for grazing privileges on the National Forests during the next five years has been definitely decided hv the secretary of Agriculture. The erazing fees will be uniform on all If the Forests of New Mexico and chanee before the end of the five vnar period beginning Jan [ 1919. The yearlong rates on the different classes of stock will he as follows: Cattle s1 .oO: horses s1 25. sheep and ooats 25c. and swine 75c.
 At the same time that the new -ntes will become effective, 2 wider ovtension of the five year term per wit will be authorized than hereto fore. Such a hermit will not be sub iect to reduction before the end of the period for which it is issued ex- cer4 as may be required for forest protection. Stockmen with small out fits. who are regular users of the For ests, will be given the preference. in granting the long term permits, but. after their needs are provided for, larger permittees will be considered for as many stock as the range will safely carry.

ARIZONA BOY TELLS
 OF LIFE AS PRISONER

E. E. Ellinwood, of Bisbee, is in the city of Phoenix on legal business and will remain a day or two. It will be remembered that his son Ralph, who went out with a college ambulance corps and was sent to France a year ago, was missing on May 2S in the course of the second German drive near Soissons. For a long time no word was heard of him, but some six weeks later a cablegram from w. H. Brophy at Paris brought the relieving information that he was a prisoner in German hands. Since then two let ters have been received from him by MT. Ellinwood and more frequently cablegrams from MT. Brophy bringing word of him.
 Apologizing for his neglect of regu- lar correspondence he stated in one of his letters he has written less fire. euently because of the exigencies of longer European tour than he had contemplated.
 He is at the prison camp of Langen salza, south of Berlin and 250 miles from the western German border It was at that camp that the Germans early this month shot nine French prisoners.
 III one or ms letters ne Sa1d that he was employed on farm in the day time. His companions were three Beleians, four Frenchmen and five English. so that he was having rather lonesome time. But he said that he was well treated, his food ways fair and he had good place to sleep. He rather thought the Ger mans were getting the worst of it, for, said he: "I'm afraid I'm a hUm farmer ''

HELD TO ANSWER FOR
 SALE OF JAMAICA GINGER
State Holds That Drug Contains Enough Alcohol to Produce Intoxi- cation; Violation of Prohibition Law.

Tucson, Dec. 13.-R. S. Shumway, West Congress street, druggist, was bound over to the superior court this week by Justice Oscar Pease on the charge of violating the prohibition law. Bond was fixed at s250 by the Justice, in the absence of recommen- dations by either the defense or the county attorney.
 The druggist is charged with violat- ing the prohibition law by selling la maica ginger, and the county at torney is basing the prosecution on the decision of the supreme court in a similar case, which originated in Graham county.
 c. A. Bosworth, of the Arizona pure food laboratory at the university, tes- tified regarding an analysis which he lad made of Jamaica ginger purchas ed at the Shumway drug store, and the analysis itself was placed in evi- dence at the request of T. K. Riichey, attorney for the defense. The chemist testified that analysis of the prepara- ton showed 74.25 per cent ethyl al cohol.
 Asked if in his opinion, that would be sufficient to cause intoxication, the chemist replied that it would; that he had known beverages containing or per cent to cause intoxication.

 For the past eight years he con tinued, q suffered from kidney trouble and my back hurt like it would kill me. I would have such awful spells that I would have to quit work for as long as three weeks at time. I had rheumatism too, so bad that I couldn't walk without crutches, and my feet were swollen so I couldn't put on my shoes? I suf- fered agonies all the time and noth- ing I took did me the least bit of good
 Two weeks after I started taking Tanlac was so much better that laid my crutches aside and I can now walk as good as anybody. The pain in my back is gone, I have been re- 'ieved and feel absolutely well in every respect. I sleep like a child, my appetite is fine and everything agrees with me. I have gained ten rounds. my strength has returned and I am new back at work again and in the best of health'

It is now believed Miss Fruzie All sop is going to put up with Rag Bar low until after Christmas.
 Atlas Peck has already begun mak- ing his usual winter crop around the stove at the postoffice. It is general ly believed around here that if our allies had had to have been fed from such crops as these winter crops made by Atlas they would have all starved to death long before the war was over.
 A sleight of hand per- >. me- was ar rested here Saturday right by the Deputy Constable on charge of counterfeiting when he threw several silver dolla1s out of Poke Easleys hat. The Derity says ne has a clear case against him as the performer, he knows, did not have more than enc whole dollar before the show and did not take in but a few cents in ad- missions, and he is sure Poke did not have any at any time.
 The Old MiSer worked on stranger for pipe full of tobacco yesterday. Bat Smith, who operates the moon- shine still on Musket Ridge, says if the anti4iquor laws get much more stringent he is going to have to de- mobilize.
 | It has leaked out on the Dog Hill Methodist Preacher that he took a glass of root beer at Tickvil1e last week. When some of his stewards asked him how it tasted he said it | tasted a good deal like root beer. The answer seems not to be satisfactory and the board of stewards may inves- tigate further by appointing a com- mittee to drink some of it.
 When the sleight of hand perform CT got to handling money so reckless ly and so much of it at the show Sat urday night the Old Miser, who was there on a free pass, got up and left. It is believed that he left for the pur- pose of going home and digging up and counting his money to ascertain if it was all there.
 The Hogwallow Loafers' Club had for discussion yesterday the subject '1dleness and Laziness." There were many heated arguments and some of the members got very personal.
 The Hogwallow Civic Improvement Society had Dock Hooks, the black smith. whose anvil has been lost be fore it yesterday on a charge of work ing on Sunday. Deck pleaded the COX in the Ditch.'' The prosecution offered the Biblical passage, Thou shalt not use thy man-servant, thy maid-servant, thy OK, thy ass" etc., and added thy anvil hammer and tongs. Dock was found guilty.
 Poke Easley said he enjoyed the sleight of hand show Saturday night pretty we'll but that he believed there was some sort of trick in it.
 Miss Flutie Be1cher has begun do- ing her hair up tight on her head. Some think, by her action, that she is trying to attract Rag Barlow. Tn her younger days she "snubbed" Rag, but she is now very much older and may have reconsidered.
 A fellow was in Hogwallow few days ago trying to organize bank l and had not gone far until he was arrested by the Depity Constable and taken to Tickville, where he will later on have to stand trial for lunacy. It takes money to run a bank and no, body could see where it could be had here in HogwalIow. The Old MiseI would risk nothing in such a venture
