THE DAMPNESS BECAME WETNESS.

bedroom, very nice indeed Peter de-
cided that when he had seen the rest of
Jerry's house he would come back there
for nap.
Once more out in the long hall Peter
started to see where it led. He passed
the little side hall by which he had en-
tered. The long hall slanted down and
the walls became very damp. Presently
the hall branched. Peter kept in what
seemed to be the main branch. The
dampness became wetness. The floor
grew muddy. 1t was very unpleasant
down there. Suddenly Peter understood
That hall kept leading down. 1t must
lead right down below water. OF course!
1t was the way Jerry entered from the
Laughing Brook. The doorway must be
in the bank somewhere below water
Many times had he seen Jerry dive and
not come up again for a long time He
must have entered this house by means
Of this very hall.
"Weu," muttered Peter, "I guess
there is no way out of here for me but
the way 1 came in. l think I'll go back
to that nice little bedroom and take
nap while I wait for Old Man Coyote to
get tired of watching if he is watching"
So Peter did this very thing.

Peter Rabbit.
There was nothing the matter with
the working of Peter Rabbits wits.
When he had hoped out from behind
that little clump of ferns to look straight
into the mouth of Old Man Coyote he
had been as badly frightened as ever he
had been in his whole life. But even as
his heart seemed to actually turn over
with fright his eyes saw that hole in the
ground right in front of Old Man Coyote
and his wits told him that there lay the
only possible means of escape.
He counted on the surprise it would
be to Old Man Coyote to have him jump
right toward him as if he were so scared
he didn't know where he was going. AS
he dived in that hole he heard the snap
of Old Man Coyotes jaws so close that
he shivered. But once inside that hole
Peter speedily forgot his fright. Per-
haps should say he speedily got over it.
Something else took it's place. Can you
guess what it was? 1t was curiosity.
OF course, Peter wouldn't be Peter if he
didn't become curious the minute he
found himself in a strange place.
AS soon as he was sure that Old Man
Coyote didn't intend to try to dig him
out Peter stopped worrying and began
to wonder whose house he was in 1t
might be deserted house, but there
was something about it. a feeling, nc
would have said, that made him sure
that it was not deserted Then the
dreadful thought that whoever owned
that house might be at home and drive
him out popped into his head. A fa-
miliar scent ticlkled his wabbly little
nose. He shifted and shifted. There
could be no mistake about it; that was
the scent of musk.
I'm in one of Jerry Muskrat's S
homes" thought Peter, and felt relieved
| Jerry won't drive me out after warning
| me the way he did. l knew Jerry had
house in the bank of the Laughing
Brook, as well as his house out in the
Smiling Pool and this must be it.
I've always wanted to see the inside of
one of Jerry's homes and this is my
chance"
So while outside Old Man Coyote pa
tiently waited and watched inside Peter
Ra bbit began to explore. He found that
he was in a short hall that led to a long
| hall. Peter turned to the right in this
| long hall and a few steps brought him
| to a snug bedroom. 1t wasn't deep
/ down in the ground like Johnny Chuck s
bedroom. The fact is it was only little
below the surface. 1t was very nice

Washington, July Io.-Five thou
sand draft evaders have been convict
ed in federal courts and given SEN
fences from thirty days to one year
in prison, according to reports COM

SUES TO HALT SUFFRAGE
Injunction is Asked to Prveent Fed
eral Proclamation

Washington. July 7.-Proceedings
asking that lrainbridge Colby, Sec
rotary OF state. be enjolncd from is
suing any proclamation declaring the
! suffrage amendment ratified were in
sttuted in the District OF Columbia
supreme court today by Charles S.
l'airchild OF New York, president of
the American Constitutional League.
Mr.. Farchild also seeks to prevent
Attorney General Palmer from en-
forcing the amendment. Justice Bail
ey issued a writ on Secretary Colby
and the attorney general to show
cause, July 10, why the motion should
not be granted.
The basis OF the proceedings is the
claim that the ratification of the
amendment by the West Virginia
legislature was illegal because &C
complished by fraud and that the pro-
posed ratification by the Tennessee
Legislature also would be illegal OH
the ground that the legislature lack
ed authority under the states con-
stitution to act OH the measure,
Only thrty-five states have ratified
tic amendment and as ratification by
one other is necessary the attack on
thhe amendment through the courts
at this time came as a surprise in suf-
irage cicles here. An attack on the
legality OF the action of the Tennessee
legislature has been expected, but not
until the legislature had actually act
ed.
in anticipation OF such move by
the anti-suffrage forces the organiza-
tons supporting the amendment
have urged action by more than thir-
ty-six states so that the amendment
could become operative in time to
permit the women to vote in the pres
idental election this year.

HUNS ASK TIME TO D1SARM
But Fifteen Months Sought is Unsat-
isfactory to the Allies

Spa, Belgium, July THE German
plan for progressive rehabilitation
of one hundred thousand men in tit
teen months presented to the repre-
senatives of the allied governments
here this afternoon was declared I'M
satisfactory to the allies. The Asso-
ciated Press is informed by prom
inent member of the conference it
will be examined seriously, however,
and acted upon by experts report to-
morrow.
The impression in allied circles to-
night is far more favorable than yes
terday, the presentation of the Ger
man plan opening the way for dis.
cussion and removing the danger o.
a rupture. DR.. Simons, the German
foreign minister, gave it as his opin-
ion that the crisis had not been pass
ed. The only moment when there
was any bitterness shown at this al
ternoons session was when premier
Lloyd George said rather inpatient
| ly: You only have to make a law
to reduce your army and execute it.
To this Simons replied: Il wish
to remind the honorable gentlemen
that there are parts of the British
empire in which there are laws con-
corning the keeping of arms by sub
tjects, which the British empire is I'M
able to enforce"
The allied demand is for immediate
destruction of twelve thousand cam
non, which the allied commissioners
in Germany have under guard, to-
gether with fifty thousand machine
guns. Germany desires to destroy
the guns at the rate of one thousand
month. The allies hold that is not
sufficiently rapid, and express fear
that the machine guns will fall into
| the hands of insurrectionists.

Farmers Advised to Hold Wool.

The following letter comes to us dt

This letter indicates clearly the re
suit OF efforts taken OH the part It
the Farm Bureau Federation and Ma
tlonal organization, and it is one OF
| the advantages to be gained through
the federation.
"A letter has just come to me from
MIR. J. X. Howard, President Of the
American Farm Bureau Federation,
to the effect that results OF the con-
ference of the Farm Bureau Fedora
ton people with the Federal Reserve
Bank, Chicago Banks, representatives
of the manufacturing and marketing
wool interests of Boston, and the
Boston banks, have been very salts
factory. He requests that the infor-
nation be sent on to the county
agents.
According to Mr.. Howard it is
now possible for all farmers who
have pooled wool to avail themselves
of credit extended through the Fed
eral Reserve Bank agreement and to
hold their wool until the market be-
comes stabilized. He further makes
the statement that the den1orafIzed
condition of the wool market is only
temporary, according to the best i'll
formation that can be obtained, which
is additional reason that no wool
should be sold under present condi-
tons"
