Love of Spectacular Made Bill Carlisle
 Bandit, Is Belief

Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 21.-Reports received at the division headquarters of the Union Pacific railroad at noon today led officials to believe that Will liam Carlisle, the train bandit, might be captured soon. He is believed to be west of Casper, closely pressed by a heavily armed posse headed by John C. Gale, of Omaha, chief of the Union Pacific railroads secret service staff.
 Posses apparently had hopeless task today in their search through the wild country around Medicine Bow and the Red Desert in the vicinity of Wamsutter. He was reported in Casper Wednesday night and again yesterday, but Casper officers search ed the city without success.
 without success.
 There was no lessening of prepara- tion by the Union Pacific railroad to prevent repetition of the robbery of Tuesday night near Medicine Bow when Carlisle entered tourist car on the Los Angeles Limited, relieved passengers of S250 and escaped. Guards are maintained on every train and equipment for sending a special train load of armed men in pursuit is kept ready in the yards awaiting news of any new depreciation.
 A love of the spectacular rather than greed is said to be the motive of the robber He is not known to have committed murder and was noted for his consideration of women and aged persons. At the time of his capture in 1916, it developed that he could have wiped out the entire posse from his hiding place before he was discovered, if he had chosen. Il am not killer," he told his captors.

Industry in the Middle West Is in
 Critical Position

Chicago, Nov. 2l.-Industry in the middle west today found itself in a
 critical condition, with shutdowns
 ordered or in prospect, as a result
 of the soft ccal shortage, due to the
 miners strike
 While the fuel administration had ordered an embargo on export of
 hard coal except to Canada today, and miners leaders and operators were considering counter proposals at Washington. announcement was made by the Illinois Manufacturing
 association that seven large indus tries would be forced to suspend op- erations indefinitely. The associa- tion began work on plan for a pool of coal supplies, which it was hoped might carry most of it's members along for about six weeks. Many other plants may be forced to shut down CT greatly reduce their operations at the end of another week of non-production of coal, it office.
 Reports were somewhat encourag-

Arkansas to Meet Rice at Houston
 on Thanksgiving

Fayetteville. Ark, Nov. 2O.-The biggest comeback in the Southwest ern Athletic association ever, is the way the defeat of Oklahoma by Ar kansas here last Saturday is spoken of.
 Arkansas won it's two practice games, then lost to Louisiana, Ken- dall and Texas. The playing in those games had been cratic. Brilliant team work and individual playing would be evident one time and slug gishness the next few minutes. Last weeks contest was a complete re- versal. The Razorbacks showed a passing machine that was much smoother than Oklahoma's, while her teamwork was remarkably consis- tent.
 The last two games have also brought out some star players on the Arkansas eleven. Davidson, who was chosen in 1917 for all-southern quar- ter, proved he was a real director of a football team, and by his excellent playing has found place for him. self, it is almost certain, on at least the all-southwestern eleven. Cole HdH, 1oU-pOuHu ArkaHSaS center, with his perfect passing of the ball to Davidson as far as 25 and 30 feet, is being talked of as the most likely possibility for all-southwestern cen ter.
 The last Arkansas game will be played at Houston, Thanksgiving with Rice Institute. According to the result of the game of each with Texas, the Razorbacks and Owls should be pretty well matched and the game a fighting one

Making of Rum Brought Dollars
 to Martinique

St. Pierre, Martinique, Nov. 2O.- The manufacture and sale of rum brought unusual prosperity to the little island of Martinique during the war. Hidden away among the West Indies this little French colony of 100000 people, so small that it is found with difficulty on most maps of the world, sent its sons overseas to fight for the motherland while the folks at home prospered by rais- ing sugar, coffee, cocoa and manu- featuring rum.
 This took place, too, during a per iod when prohibition was sweeping over America.
 Not only did the exports of this beverage increase from approximate ly 4.090,90O gallons in 1913 to B. 862,500 gallons in 1917, gain of more than 40 per cent, but the value of the exports increased from ap- proximately $2,385,000 in 1918 to $9,- 933,O00 in 1877, gain of about 315 per cent.
 Exports of sugar, however, de- creased from 39,089 tons in 1913 to 20.478 tons in 1917. The production of sugar cane was increased during the samo period but the islanders found it more profitable to use the product in the manufacture of rum than to export it. From 1914 to 1917 imports of molasses used in the man. ufacture of rum, increased from l. S57 tons to SAYS tons.

Belknap plucked the flower from
his buttonhole and cast II into the

instead OF wandering along the
shore with Carruthers-although for
reasons OF her own she did wish very
much to do so-she guided him away
from II. and. by a roundabout way,

left him on the veranda and went

She wrote a single line upon a sheet

she went outside and Joined the others

He went to the stables and saddled

ham Harvard saw him ride away.
They observed he rode like u Ken
tuckian; something that rather puZ-
zled the Senator.
Bing noted with concern that
Black julius followed the trail OF
Belknap on another horse. But as
Bing assured himself, julius was
not on any errand for his mistress.
His mission was a far deeper one.
The black servant had not liked Bel
knap from the time he had set foot
at inquest. He distrusted the guest,
and, furthermore, was going to prove
his convictions.
Black julius had listened in when
Belknap answered the long distance
telephone call from Washington. He
had heard OF the proposed meeting
between Belknap and messenger.
For this he was following Belknap.
Black Julius, after all, had his
labor for his pains.
He could hear every sentence that
passed between Belknap and the
other man at that meeting in the old
Underwater grist mill. but he could not
understand "A word OF any OF t..
The two talked in a language that
Black Julius did not know. although
no rightly assumed that 1t was Span
ish.
Nevertheless, he was no wiser when
he went away--a full half hour after
the two had gone--than when he ar
rived; no wiser save in so far az his
intuitive perceptions and his steady
regard of their faces while they talked
rendered him, But he was more than
ever convinced of his opinion Of
Belknap.
Nearly all OF the guests were as
sembled at the breakfast table when
Belknap joined them. When they
left the table he managed 10 place
himself beside Katherine, to whom
he said, In a sharp undertone:
IL must have Il talk with you, Mrs
Harvard, as soon as possible, and
where there will be no fear OF inter-
ruption."
She flushed angrily, bit her lips,
then smiled, and accepted the sltua-
tion-for Katherine had decided that
morning TO meet Belknap on his own
ground, henceforth, and to puzzle
him, even TO deceive him, by an out
ward appearance OF entire acceptance
Of the inconceivable situation.
"Oh. Mr.. Belknap" she called 10
him, and he paused and turned. III

knew that Katherine was waiting for
II as eagerly as he was, although he
could not guess what her interest in
it might be.
But Katherine acted quickly, ac-
ceptlng Bing's cue, and acting upon
IL as he threw another quick glance
over his shoulder in her directicu.
