U. s. SOLDIERS ACCUSED
OF PLOTTING TREASON

Camp Lewis, Tacoma. Wash.-Four
national army soldiers are held in the
guardhouse awaiting a presidential
warrant from Washington which will
mean their internment as enemy
aliens who plotted not only to shoot
their officers the first time they got
into action in Europe. but also de-
liver all the American soldiers in their
organization to the German army.
The names OF the men have been
withheld by the Judge advocate.

ably An Aviation Camp.
washington, ID. C.-The war depart
ment took the first step in rehabilita-
tation Of Camp Greene as an assemb
ling camp. This was in the ordering
or detachment OF from 10000 to
10000 men to the ordnance depot.
Assistant Secretary Crowell stated
that arrangements for assembling
these men are now under way.
Secretary Baker stated that it is his
intention to send inspectors to Camp
Greene at once to look over the loca-
ton for a signal corps depot. All in.
dications point to utilization of the
camp to its full capacity.
1t would be advisable for the city
and township road building authori-
ties to proceed with their work and
anticipate completion OF the camp as
the government may be depended upon
to carry out its part OF the contract.
Secretary Baker expressed the opin.
ion that Charlotte is going to have
better camp than before. Ii has never
been regarded as a training camp and
never was so intended. 1t will be re-
membered that Secretary Baker made
that statement couple OF months ago
but its establishment as a permanent
military assembling camp may be ac-
cepted as a settled fact and that as
such ii will be likely developed stead.

We've talked so long Of shell and
shot. Of captains and OF kings! The

Of other things. Let's urn our thoughts
from P~etrograd to places nearer home:
we need good roads and need them
bad. and hence this stirring pome. Fol
years we've struggled through the

said. when we were stuck: ut Is no

the muddy pools, across the reefs and
bars, and lost our horses and our mules.
and mired our costly cars. We said:
Until this war shall cease, our woes
can't be DISGUST: but, when arrives the
down Of peace, we'll have good roads
or bust" We've talked so long of battle
fronts that we may find 1t hard to
turn to other, milder stunts; our spir-
its may be Jared. We've rallied SO long
at Kaiser Bill that we may think IL
stale to talk of grading down a hill.
or filling up a vale. But 1t is wise to
talk good roads instead Of bones and
blood; the farmers cannot haul their

Rice In Japan.

From the Japan Advertiser.
There Is something almost fanaticaliy
superstitious in the reverence in which
tho Japanese hold rice. If the emperor
ls the most sacred being under the sun,
rice is Of all things on earth the most
sacred commodity-in the eyes OF the
Japanese. II a prodigal son squanders
thousands Of yen upon geisha. his par
ents may consider II and forgive II as q
folly Of youth. but II he willfully throws
away a handful of rice. he may be gull
iotined n public opinion will pronounce
him served right. The very first lesson
Of dinner table etiquette which every
Japanese child learns Is to treat rice with
the utmost veneration. II i left vege-
tables, pickles. even the costliest fish,
half eaten. to be thrown away to the
beggar or dog, my parents would simply
say that I should be shamed OF myself
or something of the sort, but / would
never think Of throwing away even a
cupful of good rice: for I know
through experience that the Indignation
which such an act would be sure to
arouse In the parental bosom would be
little short Of positively dangerous. . g..
In the pre-restoration days the pie
beians were divided into three classes.
and of these the farmers ranked first.
the mechanics m tradesmen coming
after them. Even proud, powerful Samu-
raj admitted the Importance and estima-
BILE character Of farmers. Why? Because
they raised rice-the food Of the gods
and Of the Samurai!

A National kim.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
Sometimes-in spite Of that posing bragg

Albert Of Belgium-who flung his hope
less defiance In the face Of the towering
Teuton tide and who never once faltered
when all of his country save a shattered

horror, shot with martyr blood-has stood
throughout the war a kingly figure in the
best traditions Of romance. Since the
armistice his progress through recovered
and liberated Belgium has been a march
of emancipation amidst welcoming waves
of the widest, maddest JOY. There Is one
country In Europe which will not breed
bolshevism.
But the returned king realizes that the
war has sown political ferment n social
unrest everywhere, and he periodically
and with statesmanlike sagacity meets
his new national problems at the

Value Of Old Gold.
From Commerce and Finance

From Commerce n Finance.
Many people ask what Is q fair price
for old gold.
Gold, "a karats fine. or chemically pure.
Is worth $20.65 an ounce. An ounce Troy
contains 20 pennyweights. the common
unit Of weight used by dealers In pre-
clous metals. A pennyweight of fine gold
Is worth $1.03k. Z
Divide s1.03H by "a (karats) and the re-
suit Is 1902 cents. In the language OF the
bullion trade, gold Is worth 1902 cents
for ZACH karat per pennyweight.
The bullion in q pennyweight OF COM
mon jewelry gold IA karats fine is worth
IA times 1902 cents. or 0.228 cents a

weights) to get the bullion value of an

In the evening, when a few
privileged neighbors meet at his
housc--the justice Of the peace,
notary, Major Comte d'Astrignac,
who has also gone to live at Saint
Maclou--DOn Luis is not afraid to
speak of Arsene Lupin.
Il used to see a great deal OF
him. he says. "He was not a
bad man. | will not go so far as
to compare him with the Seven
Sages, or even to hold him up as
an example to future generations,
but still we must judge him with
q certain indulgence.
"He did a vast amount of good
and a moderate amount of harm.
Those who suffered through him
deserved what they got; and fate
would have punished them sooner
or later if he had not forestalled
her. Between a Lupin who Sc

He was all that. But he was some
thing more than that. And, while
he amused the gallery with his
skill and ingenuity, he reused the
general enthusiasm in other ways.
"People laughed at his pFac-
ii ,al jokes, but they loved his
pluck, his courage, his adven-
turous spirit, his contempt for
danger, his shrewd insight, his In

II should like my epitaph read,

He was a master of adventure.
"And, if the spirit of adventure
led him too often to put his hand
in other peoples pockets, it also
led him to battlefields where it
gives those who are worthy OPP

And, nodding his head, Don
