to do but retrace their steps Ethel
with heavy heart and Morgan with
muchpuzzled brain.
Walking with heavy steps beneath
his burden the Hermit continued his

place being well screened by a growth
of shrubs. Into this opening he car

Then taking down bow and arrow

of the cave.
Night had fallen when he cautiously
drew near the cabin. Taking aim ut
Il lighted window he lei the arrow fly,
and with splintering of glass the
shaft passed through and stood quiY-
ering In a table. Alarmed by the
sound of the breaking glass. the oeea-
pants of the place run to the table.
Ethel, arriving first, snatched the pa

read aloud.

And what does he mean by that?

Without speaking the girl slipping into

Quickly improvisng a litter and Sc

Morgan. Rainface and the big-hearted
Bridget started on their way TO find

Murderous though his disappointment
was that he had again failed to make
way with his rival, the Hawk was
obliged to smother it

World Not to
End, But Will
Be Disturbed

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 17.-Prof
Albert Porta, scientific observer and
fosecaster, is standing pat on his pre-
dictions of a general meteorological
turmoil that will affect the earth
during the period beginning today.
"The world is not going to end"
he said. "Only those who distorted
my original prediction are RESPONSE
BILE for the seeming widespread fear
that the end of the world has come.
But ! am very well satisfied to let
the turn of events prove my conten-
tions."
Earthquakes, thunder, rain and
other severe disturbances will accom-
pany the storms" which Porta fore
casted, he declared. The said quakes
and volcanic eruptions will affect
Italy, Japan, Java, Alaska, Califor-
nit, Hawii and Central America.
81 never once predicted the world
would come to an end" Porta re-
peated. "But the Pacific coast will
be visited with the most serious
storms in its history"

Kings trial is scheduled for the

was sent to the Kansas University

earthed last August at Maple Hill,

u. S. Army Wants
More Musicians

On Governors Island, N. Y, is To-
Gated the United States army music
school, under direction of Captain
Arthur A. Clappe, the purpose of
which is the training of bandsmen.
assistant band leaders and band
masters For each division there is
a special course of instruction-the
two former of one year duration
and the latter of two years, each
fitting the student for the next
higher course. The education, con-
sequent on enlistment in the army,
is absolutely free of cost to those
privileged to enter the school to PAL
ticipate in its benefits-not only is
this education free, but the stu
dents get paid from $36 to $S1 per
month during their enlistment. To
this must be added the value of ra-
tions, clothing, quarters, heat, light,
medical attendance and dental treat
ment, which is estimated to be
equivalent to an increase in the
monthly payment of from s45 to
$55 or more.
Men in the army bands have no
military duties to perform in peace
times other than that of playing an
instrument, unless they choose a
mounted band in which case the
care OF a horse follows.

FIND USE FOR
FLANDERS MUD

R0ULERS, Belgium.-(By MaiD.
FLANDERS mud, the bane of all the
armies that operated in Belgium, IS
of some use after ALL
Lime is practically unobtainable
in Belgium today and in many OF the
ruined villages, the refugees are lay
ing stones and bricks with mud for
temporary shelter against the COM
ing winter. Others ill the chinks
in their chimneys and walls with it.
and altogether it is becoming as
much of a comfort to the refugees
as it was handicap to the soldiers
who lived in it for months.
At DiXmude there is a little low,
caye-llke building, made of stones
from the old pretentious city wall.
They are laid in the red mud of the
nearby battlefields and over the ton
of it are arched pieces of sheet iron
from British dugouts. In this little
building, containing three tiny
rooms, the affairs of the city are car
ried on; in one room an architect
is at work on estimates of damage
done to public buildings in the city.
In another room the t)rtnightly SUP
ply of coal is issued and another
room contains colth, shoes, blankets
and other articles which the Ameri-
cans have supplied.
The mayor, by far the busiest man
in town, divides his time between
public affairs, weighing out coal, dis
tributing supplies and cleaning NOR
tar off of old bricks from the ruin
of his house. He is laying these in
mud, too, for his winters shelter.
His example is being widely followed
in DiNmude and surrounding vii
lagos.
