SEPARATE REDS
FROM GERMANS
Poles Circle East Prussia on
Lithuanian Border to Bar
the Russian BoIsheviki.

Paris-The Poles intend to continue
their eastward march, especially in
the direction of Grodno, in the district
north of Warsaw, until considerable
area beyond the Supreme Councils
frontier line is entirely cleared of Boil
shevist troops and .Poland's frontiers
are assured of strategic protection.
News reached Paris that the first
contact with Lithuanian troops was
effected without incident, the Polish
generals assuring the population they
do not intend conquest of the terri
tory, but proposed merely to disarm
the elements which might provoke dis
orders If Moscow orders a general
mobilization of the Russian army.
The French Foreign Office insists
that this Polish passing Of the eastern
line does not constitute violation Of
the Allies wishes, which are being
communicated to General Pilsudski by
Count Szamoyski, Polish Minister here,
who is on his way to the front, but
stress is being laid on the Importance
of maintaining the most friendly rela-
tons with the smaller States, lest a
Bolshevist reaction develop which
would detract from the success Of the
Polish victory and spoil the effect Of
the disintegration which already is
making itself felt In Moscow.
The greatest benefit from the Lith-
uanian advance Is the complete encir-
cling of East Prussia by the Poles,
which, In the eyes of the French Gen.
eral Staff, presented a danger of col
fusion between the Reds and the Ger.
mans which would result in the free
ing of the interned Bolshevists.
The Bolshevist communiques main-
tain an optimistic note, but the French
are informed from all fronts that the
possibility of Russian recovery Is re-
mote. General Wrangel has suffered
slight reverses, but he has been hailed
as a liberator in the new sectors,
where he had promised the peasants
that they would be permitted to keep
the land but would have to pay a per-
centage of their profits to the new
Government as soon as he reached
Moscow.
The savage massacres of Polish
priests and Of soldier prisoners and
the sacking of churches marked the
path of the Red advance toward
Mlawa in the Bolshevists' effort to cut
the Danzig corridor.

Through some strange within OF her

suddenly she became aware OF one
thing only. A tragedy was being en-
acted before her eyes.

And today the country did want men
who could shoot and ride. and he had
flown into the foothills to nurse :

could be Of some use yet. At any rate
there was way out.
Some within led him through the
grove OF spruce trees on his way back
to the ranch. Here. In. an open space.
he looked about, kicking in the dry
grass. At length his toe disturbed q
few bleached bones. and he stood and
looked with unseeing eyes far across
the. shimmering valley.

Brownie" The whole scene came
back upon him-the moonlight, and
Irene's distress, and the little bleed
Ing body. And he had said he didn't
know anything about the justice of
God; all he knew was the critter that
couldn't run was the one that got
caught. /. And he had said that
was life. He had said It was
only nature.
And then they had stood among the
trees and beneath the white moon and
pledged their faith.
Again his head went up and the old
light flashed IN his eyes. ''The first
thing is to kill the wolf" he said
aloud. mo other innocent shall fall
to his fangs. Then-my country"
Darkness had again fallen before
Dave found his car threading the
streets OF the city. still feverish with
its newborn excitement of war. He
returned his car to the garage; an
attendant looked up curiously-it was
evident from his glance that Dave had
already been missed-but no words
were exchanged. He stood for mo-
ment In the street, collecting his
thoughts and rehearsing his resolves.
He was amazed to find that, even
In his bitterness, the city reached
thousand hands to him-hands of
mind-all urging him back into the
old groove; all saying: THE routine
is the thing. Be spoke I'm the wheel;

"No," he reminded himself "No,

He remembered that he had given
his revolver TO Irene. And suddenly
she sat with him again at the tea
table. Where was he? Yes,
he had given his revolver to Irene.
Well. there was another I'm his rooms.
In the hallway of the block In
which he had his bachelor apartments
Dave almost collided with woman.
He drew back, and the light fell on
his face. but hers was In the shadow.
And then he heard her voice.
"Oh, Dave, I'm so glad Why,
what has happened?" The lat words
ran into little treble of pain as she
noted his haggard face.
"You-Edith?" he managed to say.
