not be forgotten, however, that I did
not undertake this adventure volun-
tarily. 1t was "wished on me-" I
simply had to make the most of the
knowledge had.
At about this time bllsters began To-
appear on my legs and my knees
swelled. In addition was pretty well
convinced that had lost the sight of
my left eye. hadn't seen thing out
Of it since my leap from the train.
When i imagine the villainous ap-
pearance must have presented at this
time-my unhealed wounds, eighteen
days growth of beard and general
haggard and unkept visage-I think
the fear felt about meeting strangers
was perhaps unwarranted. The

the stranger turned into my path he
would probably pass right by me. As
luck would have it, he continued on
his way and never noticed me at all.
After that 1 frequently noticed
groups Of Luxembourg peasants ia
the distance but 1 usually saw then
first and managed to avoid them.
On the eighteenth day after my leap
from the train crossed into Belgium.
1t had taken me just nine days to ge!

under which labored 1 was very well

CHAPTER VIII.
Nine Days in Luxembourg.


was now heading northwest and I
thought that by keeping that course
would get out of Luxembourg and
into Belgium, where 1 expected to be
little better off, because the people
Of Luxembourg were practically the
same as Germans.
One of the experiences had in Lux
embourg which 1 shall never forget
occurred the first day that 1 spent
there. I had travelled all night and 1
was feeling very weak. / came to a
small wood with plenty Of low under
brush, and picked out thick clump
of brushes which was not in line with
any paths, crawled In and lay down
to spend the day.
The sun could just reach me through
an opening In the trees above and 1
took Off all my clothes except my shirt
and hung them on the bushes to dry
in the sun. AS the sun moved moved
the clothes around correspondingly, be-
cause tired as was 1 could take only
catnaps.
That afternoon I awoke from one
of these maps with q start. There were
voices not a dozen feet from me! My
first impulse was to jump to my feet
and sell my life as dearly as / could,
but on second thought L decided to
look before leapt. Peeping through
the underbrush could just discern two
men calmly chOpping down a tree, and
conversing as they worked. thanked
my lucky stars that had not jumped
up on my first impulse, for was APP
parently quite safe as long as 1 lay
where 1 was.
1t then occurred to me that If the
tree upon which they were working
should happen to fall in my direction
it would crush me to DEATH 1t was
tall enough to reach me and big enough
to kill me If 1t landed In my direction
and as l could only see the heads of
the men who were chopping it down,
was unable to tell which way they
planned to have it fall.
There was this much In my favor !;
the chances of the tree falling in just
my direction were not very great and
there was more than an even chance
that the men would be wise enough to
fell It so that Ii would not, because IL
1T landed in the brushes the task of
trimming the branches from the trunk
would be so much harder.
But even without this feeling Of Sc
curity, there was really nothing else
could do but wait and see what fate
had In store for me. lay there watch
ing the top of the tree for more than
an hour. Time and time again saw 1t
sway and fancied 1t was coming my
direction, and 1t was all / could do to
keep my place. but moment later 1

Later heard some children's voices
and again peering through the under
brush l saw that they had brought the
men their lunch. You can't realize how

MARKET QUOTATIONS.
GOOD DEMAND AND

Chicago, April S.-CoId weather
and a renewal of demand from the
seaboard brought about a sharp up
turn today in the oats market.
Shorts covered freely upon finding
that the pit was almost bare of Of

position to sell and resulted in
something of reaction Opening
quotations which ranged from half

SAL to $40 c were followed hv a
setback OF nc from initial top fig

The fact that the visible supply

check late upturns in the corn mar

scored a slight further gain. and
then underwent a moderate sag.

STOCK MARKET IS
STILL ECCENTRIC

New York, April 3.-The stock
market today continued TO mani
fest all its superficial features of
the previous session, stocks like
Sumata tobacco, Studebaker and
Ontario Silver taking precedence
in point of prominence over the
recognized leaders. Dealings
dwindled steadily, the first hours
sales falling below yesterdays
meagre total. Later the list hard
ened on q very moderate demand
for Reading and United States steel.
American car and Baltimore loco
