GRAVE DESSECRATERS

Bombay, May 6.-Masuds, tribesmen

the frontier campaign, repeated desc
Grated graves in which British soldiers
had been buried have just been taught
a severe lesson that will make them
very chary of meddling with the dead
in future.
A trap was set for them A grave
Vas fixed up which was made to APP
pear that it contained the corpse of q
British officer. 1t contained some
thing much more deadly in the shape
OF gun cotton and other explosives.
Six Masnuds started to open the sup
posed grave Five of them were blown
to pieces. The sixth had just enough
life left in him when discovered to tell
what had happened.

Revelations
of q Wife
Dicky Said, 9" am Your
Husband-Not Your Pupil"
BY ADELE GARRISON.

l"Remember," Dieky Said, 9" am Your
Husband-Not Your Pupil"
Twas so furious at Dicky for the way
in which he had thrown the response
biIity of declining Lillian Gales invita-
ton on my shoulders that I could not
control my voice sufficiently to answer
his question for a minute or two.
Whats the matter, Madge?" he had
exclaimed as he turned from the tele-
phone and saw my face; but could
not speak.
He was the one who had not wished
to go to her house for an all-night
revel. I had left it all with him. And
yet he had deliberately told her that it
was my fear of headache which had
prevented us from coming.
Of all things, had desired to keep
Lillian Gale from guessing, was that
I objected to her friendship with Dicky.
And here Dicky had put into my mouth
that ages-old expedient of jealous
wife, a convenient headache, as a rea-
son for not going to her home.
I could imagine how she was smiling
cynically at the idea of my grasping at
sstraws to keep my husband away from
her. All my softer mood of the evening
vanished. I told myself that had been
correct in my estimate of Dicky as re-
vealed by his dealings with Touraine
Bros. He had no moral backbone. If
| a lie suited his purpose better than the
truth he would utter it gayly, care
lessly.
If he were annoyed he would in.

whom it might injure.

the other financial worries. answered
his inquiries coldly.
Nothing is the matter, except that

one who did not wish to come to her
home. It puts me in a false light be-

friends
Suppose that she does2" Dicky's
tone was mischievous. IF she imagines
that, she will be flattered, as any wonl-

while if she thinks that an old pal like
me would actually prefer an evening
at home to one of her blowouts, her
little feelings will be hurt. Those par
ties of hers are her pride. She can't

been fortunate enough to attend one
of them would ever miss one again"
why miss one now, then?" asked
dryly; but the ringing of the door bell

A QUESTION OF COLOR.

The Pensacola Journal one of the
few newspapers in the state that knows
free verse from blank verse and an
anapaest from dactyl quotes the Gal
ley and comments as follows:
The Tampa Tribune, which has
been objecting strenuously to Amy
Lowell's calling the sea as blue as
salvin blossom, may be glad to
learn that that distinguished poets
residence is called "Sevenels.'' And
we know why.-Miami Herald. If
there were any cudgels near at
hand, we would seize them in
Amy's defense. We started this
controversy, but now we think, as
we are not pulling down 40 per cent.

There you are. Just because the

they never heard OF anything but a
tropical sage. But Amy Lowell has

well settle Amy's hash. once and for
all, and also that of M. S. d. In the
first place, we do not believe that Amy

RICHMOND men LOST
MANNERS IN ARMY?

The world war has caused the us
ually conservative male population
OF Richmond to forget practically
three pre-war habits
In ante-bellum days whenever d
feminine acquaintance passed, the hat
or cap was lifted entirely from the
head. But not today! She gets a
sort of sloppy salute or else the brim
of the hat or cap is merely touched
Often the old hat-tipping is forgotten
entirely.
And one hardly ever sees a Rich
mond man take off his hat while con-
versing to girl on the street.
Formerly, to light a cigar or cigar
cite, Richmond men would scratch a
match along the seat of the trousers.
Usually a leg was lifted from the
ground.
Safety matches or Bill Hart method
are now used. The latter run the
thumb nail along the head of the
match.
Army life is also blamed by Rich
mond young men for the disappear
ance of the Beg your pardon when
another couple is bumped on a dance
floor. The army man was forced to
dance in such crowded halls that eti-
quette was dispensed with. And it
remains in the discard.

DEFENDERS CREW IS
UNDISCOURAGED BY
LOSING FIRST RACE
(By Associated Press)

SANDY HOOK, N. J., July 16.-Re-
pairs on the Cup Sloop Resolute,
whose throat halyards parted in yes
terday's race when victory over the
Shamrock w seemed we'll in hand,
proceeded rapidly today, and there
was every prospect that the defender
would be in readiness for another
joust in the Americas Cup match OF
Sandy Hook Saturday.

justing new halyards today" said Rob-
ert w. Emmons, II, managing owner.
A new metal gait was to be slung on
the Resolute, and Captain Charles
Francis Adams, the cup yacht skipper,
did not seem unduly chagrined over
the accident that robbed him of a fine
chance of victory.

er of the Resolute, made a careful in

Sailors on the Resolute declared the
Upton challenger cannot lift the cup,
pointing out that the 15-mile beat to
windward yesterday in light airs. in
which the Upton sloop is supposed to
show to best advantage, the American
racing machine beat the Englishman,
boat for boat, without any advantage
that might have come from a time
allowance Of minutes 40 seconds,
which Resolute is allowed over a 80
mile course.

The accident of Resolute coming on
top of three other major mishaps
earlier in the SeaSon-the loss of the
mast off New Haven, the breaking Of
the jaws Of the raft and the carrying
away of topmaSt off Newport, had a
tendency to somewhat shake the faith
in the abality of the Hcrreshoff crea-
ton to hold together until the end OF
the season.

PARENTS PAY MUCH
MONEY TO CHILDREN

Between $4,000 and $4,000 is now
being paid into the Wayne county
Juvenile court annually for the sup
port of children whose parents are
divorced or are living apart.
Prior to the time Judge William A.
Bond went on the circuit court bench
court orders requiring allowance for
the support of children whose parents
were separated were ignored, for the
most part, it is said It is also stated
that the court as a rule made no ef-
fort to enforce such orders with the
result that many children were neg
lected.
In recent months quite a number of
men who are fathers Of children by
divorced wives have been brought be-
fore Judge Bond on contempt charges
to explain why orders issued by the
previous administration of the circuit
court for the support of children had
been defied.
Judge Bond has made it very plain
to these men that they will now be
expected to contribute regularly to
the support of minor dependents, and
the result has been that practically
every man within the jurisdiction of
the court who is required to support
his offspring is making regular pay
ments.
Men who are brought before me for
not supporting their children have just
three alternatives: to provide for
their children or go to Jail or go SO
far away from Wayne county that
they cannot be located" Judge Bond
remarked.

The shock was more severe than
