had bent his limbs so as to give him
self the firmest posture at the expect
shining weapons raised on high, in the
faint hope that n well-directed
thrust might penetrate through the eye
to the brain of his grim foe.
But to the unutterable astonish-
ment of all, the beast seemed not even
aware of the presence Of the Grim
inal. At the first moment of its re-
lease it halted abruptly in the arena,
raised itself half on end, snuffing the
upward air with impatient signs; then
suddenly it sprang forward, but not
on the Athenian. At half-speed it
circ!ed round and round the space,
turning its vast head from side to side
with an anxious and perturbed gaze,
as if seeking only some ven of es-
cape; once or twice it endeavOred to
leap up the parapet that divided ii
from the audience, and, on failing, ut
tered rather a bafled howl than its
deep-toned and kingly roar. 1t evinced
no sign either OF wrath or hunger; its
tail dropped along the sand. instead of
flashing it's gaunt sides; and it's eye,
though it wandered at times to Glau
Gus. rolled again listlessly from him.
AT length, as if tired of attempting tt
escape, it crept with a moan into its
cage and once more laid itself down
to rest
"The first surprise of the assembly
at the apathy of the lion soon grew
into resentment at its ~cOwardice and
the populace already merged their
pity for the fate of Glaucus into angry
compassion for their own disappoint-
ment. The manager called to the
keeper:
"'How is this? Take a goad, and
prick him forth, and then close the
door of the den.'
"As the keeper, with some fear.

to obey, a loud cry was heard at n
of the entrances of the arena there
was a confusion, a hustle, voices OF
remonstrance suddenly breaking forth.
and sudden silence at the reply. All
eyes turned in wonder toward the
quarter of the disturbance; the crowd
gave way, and suddenly Sallust ap-
peared on the senatorial benches. his

In the fight which resulted in the
ending of the coal strike. Ames figured
as chief and he is now in charge of
the suit for dissolution of the United

Government control scored great
victory in the recent mine strike. The
strike was called in violation of law at
time when ii would have wrecked
every industry in the United States had
not the Government stepped in and
taken charge for the good of the coun-
try.

the miners that they lived up to the

the operators will do the same. Con-

duce coal and to save the people from

following:
"Demosthenes said more than

Let only truth accuse Let only
justice judge.
Speak truth to the people in the
presence of the king. and speak

has many of the best of them at his
tongues end. One cannot help think
ing. however, If Dcmosthenes had been
looking for man who honestly sub
scribcd to the convictions quoted he
would have needed more than a Ian
tern to find Gore bobbing up in that
connection. He who saves his coun-
try saves all things" etc. We wonder

SELL INDIANS BOOZE
 FACE COURT CHARGE

Mike Pizan and Red Milich, prob ably Austrians, were arrested last week on a charge of selling liquor to Indians. When arrested they had in their room four suit cases inclosing four gallon bottles of booze. Just what the nature of the booze is will be ascertained and it may prove to be a dangerous connection. Milich gave cash bail in the sum of $500 and is rustling bail for his partner. The two men brought the liquor from Los Angeles, claiming that it was sold to them for personal use and was twelve year old stock. They were selling it at $S per pint.
 Pizan stated that he had been em- ployed by Milich to help him take the suit cases into Arizona, receiving $20 for his services and fare and expens- es. He, did not know what the con- tents of the grips was, although one of the bottles lost its cork and the contents flowed over the packing around the bottle and through the leather case. The men were held to the U. s. Grand jury in $500 bail each.
