Travellers in Northern Russia FittinoIy
Celebrate the Crossing Of the

On the trains running northward
across north Russia, the crossing Of
the arctic circle Is made the occasion
for a festival similar to that which
tourists used to enjoy on shipboard
when crossing the equator. The train
makes a stop Of several hours In the
midst of snow-covered waste on the
shores Of the White sea. The passen-
gers stretch their legs and take con-

Of the White sea, while picnic din.

The exact spot where the railroad
crosses the circle is probably not de-
termined with scientific accuracy, but
the men who built the railroad appar-
emily agreed on an approximate loca-
ton, and this Is marked with a suit

the railroad builders have left slight
gap, probably not more than a quarter
Of an inch, between the rails. so that.
as passengers often notice, when the
train passes over the circle there is a

ALL ITALY WANTS FIUME.

Rome.-Fiume and Dalmatia. Those
words may not mean much to the av-
erage American, but to the Italians
they are what the north pole meant to
Peary, what the name Lisbon means
to the American naval filters, what
Chateau Thiery meant to the dough-
boys as they found their way across
the Marine. Recent reports from Paris

The Whippoorwjll.

The favorite hunting ground Of the
whippoorwill is about the edges Of a
forest, or over the tops of the trees,
where the big, fat moths are to be
found at night. 1t makes no noise as
1t flies, because its feathers are soft
and fluffy, but as it darts past you
sometimes 1t utters sort of groan.
The nighthawk occasionally gives vent
to loud "yawk" as 1t flies through
the evening air.

Offer Said to Have Been Made at Con-

London.-A number of prominent
Germans, chiefly Bavarians, had a con-

dispatch says, and it is believed that
Bavaria and other south German states
have been offered peace conditions in
case there should be a question of a

it is expected severe measures will be

at all queer. She hoped to see Edna
or some other little girl with whom she
had gone to school. But not until she
reached the very house itself did any
body hail her.
"Oh, Carolyn May! Is that you"
A lame boy was looking through the
iron fence Of the areaway. He was
the janitor's son.
"Oh. Johnny! I'm real glad to see

the relieved child.

Prince perhaps agreed, but he was
too deeply interested in snuffing at the

"Well, well, Prince" she said, 'you

Dropping the bag in the private hall,
she went into the kitchen and stood
on tiptoe to open the door Of the closet
above the dresser. Securing a plate,
she emptied the contents of the paper
into 1t and set the plate down on the
floor.
In spreading out the paper she saw

at Aunty Roses knee:
"God bless my papa and mamma

The faith that moves mountains was

midnight.
Nor did nearer sounds arouse her.
She had no knowledge of the fact
that a procession of A. D. T. boys
and messengers from the railroad COM
pany came to ring the bell of the
Prices apartment. Later the janitor's
family was aroused, but the little lame
boy thought it would be better for him
to say nothing about having seen Car
olyn May and of having given her the
keys.
So when in the early morning a taxi
bushy-haired, troubled-looking man got
out and helped a woman clad in brown
to the sidewalk the janitor had no
knowledge Of the fact that Carolyn
May and Prince were upstairs in the
apartment that had been so long
empty.
"And the Prices are away" said
Uncle Joe in a troubled voice. "What
do you think of that, Mandy?'
"Oh, Joe where could the dear child

janitor. 'But l can let you into the

Uncle Joe.

Parlow, and she was the first to enter
the apartment.
Prince bounded wildly to meet her.
He leaped and barked. A cry sounded
from a room beyond. Miss Amanda
and Uncle Joe rushed In.
Sleepily, her face flushed, rubbing
her blue eyes wide open, Carolyn May
sat up in bed.
"Oh, Uncle Joe! Oh. Miss Amanda I"
she said. IL was just dreaming my

Carolyn May was for once beyond
verbal expression. Besides there was
noise in the outer hall and on the
stairway. The door had been left
open by the surprised janitor.
A burst of voices came into the
apartment. Uncle Joe turned wonder
ingly. Miss Amanda stood up. Car
olyn May flew out of bed with shrek
that startled them both.

and twinkling blue eyes, caught her

"It's like n lovely fairy story!' cried
Carolyn May. "Only it's better than a

"Yes, yes, it's real, thank God I"
murmured the happy mother.
"And I'm never going away from my

given 1t no attention whatsoever.

familiar corner. The little girl had
gone softly into her own room and
made up her bed as she had seen her
mother and Mrs. Price make it.
Then she turned on the water in
the bathtub and took a bath. 1t was
delightful to have real tub instead
of the galvanized bucket they used at
