KINGS of Rome.

The kings of Rome were Romulus
who, according to conjecture, began
to reign in the year 735 B. c., and was
murdered ny the senator's. Titus Ia
thus, king OF the Sabines, ruled jointly
with Romulus six years; Numa
Pompilius, son-in-law of Tatius; Tullus
Hostilius, murdered by his successor;
ANGUS Martius, grandson of Numa
Tarquinius Priscus; Servius Tullius;
Tarquinius Superbus, who was the
last king. The monarchy was abol-
ished and a republican form of gov
eminent established in so B. G. There
after for the most part the chief ex-
ecutive officers of the republic were
consuls, two being chosen each year.
There were many civil wars. The re-
public practically came to an end when
julius Caesar was made perpetual die
tator in the year 48 B. c., but the en-
pire is generally held to have COM
menced in the year 81 B. c., when the
supreme power became conferred in Oc-'
tavius, the grand nephew of julius
Caesar who reigned as emperor with
the title of Augustus Caesar. 1t was
during his reign that our Savior was
born. Augustus died in the year

Germany's Big Bill for u. S. Soldiers

GERMANY apparently is running up
" quite bill in the matter of the
pay of United States soldiers in the
army of occupation. Senator Nickel
lar of Tennessee made statement
the other day in brief as follows:
Mr.. Mcclellan Mr.. President, / de-
sire to make statement in reference
to the testimony Of the Secretary of
War a few days ago before the Mill
tary Affairs Committee of the Senate,
as to the amount of the cost of our
forces in Germany. The total cost of
our forces in Germany up to date is
the sum of S263, 628,320 Up to Sep
TENDER 80, 1920, Germany had paid $780,
573,65S, leaving balance due the Uni
ted States of S22S,054-62. The aver
age cost to Germany, when she pays
it, will be S71,218 per day.
There was a good deal of doubt In
the testimony which was adduced be-
fore our committee, and l have the
figures up to September 80, 1920. Since
that tine an examination has been
made, but up to date we have found
no subsequent payments. At all events,

900 Is due Us by Germany today. and,

TO SHOOT OR BLUFF?

Synopsis.-Warned by his physi-
clan that he has not more than six
months to live, Dan Failing sits
despondently on park bench, Won
dering where he should spend those
six months. Memories of his grand
father and a deep love for all
things of the wild help him in
reaching a decision. In a large
southern Oregon city he meets
people who had known and loved
his grandfather, famous from
tierSman. He makes his home with
Silas Lennox, a typical westerner.
The only other members of the
household are Lennox's son, BILL"
and daughter, "Snowbird." Their
abode is in the Umpqua divide, and
there Failing plans to live out the
short span of life which he has
been told is his. From the first
Failings health shows a marked
improvement, and in the compan-
ionship of Lennox and his son and
daughter he fits into the woods life
as if he had been born to it BY
quick thinking and a remarkable
display of nerve" he saves Len
nox's life and his own when they
are attacked by a mad coyote.
Lennox declares he is reincarna-
ton of his grandfather, Dan Fail
ing /, whose fame as a woodsman
is a household word. Dan learns
that an organized band of outlaws,
of which Bert Cranston is the
leader, is setting forest fires. Lam
dry Hildreth, a former member of
b., e. %rrr-~
states evidence. Cranston shoots
Hildreth and leaves him for dead.
Whisperfoot, the mountain lion,
springs on Hildreth and finishes
him.

Senate Prefers Blue Air to Blue Laws

Spirited debate preceded the rejec-
ton of the Smoot amendment. Sem
ator Robinson of Arkansas, Democrat,
declared that the measure was adroit-
ly framed so that it would not for
bid senators and representatives smok-
ing in the capitol, although it would
prevent the president from enjoying
an after-dinner cigar at the White
House. He considered this unfair dis
elimination.
Senator Knox of Pennsylvania, Re
publican, agreed win him. He called
attention to the fact that the bill
merely tabooed the smoking of tobac-
co and insisted the measure should
be amended to cover alleged" tobac-
co.
"Some of the odors that arise in the
cloak rooms from the cigars gentle
men are smoking, make me doubt
whether they can be called tobacco"
said Senator Knox.
Senator Smith of Arizona, Democrat,
characterized the measure as ''the en-
tering wedge of a most contemplate
and restraining blue law" and charged
that its supporters were nonsmokers.
Senator Smith declared that If this
sort of legislation were to be enacted
the United States would raise gen.
Grafton of ''dudes and nincompoops."

the same experience again with no
embarrassment whatever His first i'm
preston then, besides Astounding, in
credible astonishment, was that she
had quite knocked out his breath. But
let it be said for him that he recov-
cred with notable promptness. His
own arms had gone up and closed
around her, and the girl had wriggled
free.
But you mustn't do that!' she told
him.
But, good Lord, girl! You did it
to mel Is there no justice in women?'
But / did it to thank you for this
lovely gift. For remembering me
for being so good-and considerate.
You haven't any cause to thank me-
He had many serious difficulties in
thinking it out. And only one con-
clusion was obtainable-that Snowbird
kissed as naturally as she did any
thing else, and the kiss meant exactly
what she said it did and no more.
But the fact remained that he would
have walked a good many miles far
Their if he thought there was any pos
sibility of a repeat.
But all at once his fantasies were
suddenly and rudely dispelled by the
intrusion of realities. Dan had been
walking silently himself in the pine
needles AS LennOx had wondered at
long ago. he knew how by instinct !;
and instinctively he practiced this at
tainment as soon as he got out into
the wild The creature he had heard
was fully one hundred yards distant,
yet Dan could hear him with entire
plainness. And for a while he couldn't
even guess what manner of thing il
might be.

would be Immediately expelled from

sight, might crack brush as freely !;
but wolf pack would also bay TO
wdfe The dead. OF course it might be
an elk or steer, and still more likely,
a bear. He stood still and listened.
The sound grew nearer.
Soon it became evident that the crea-
ture was either walking with two legs,
or else was four-foeted animal put
ting two feet down at the same in
slant. Dan had learned TO wait. He
stood perfectly still. And gradually
he came to the conclusion that he
was listening to the football of an
other man.
But il was rather hard TO imagine
what man might be doing on this
lonely hill. OF course it might be a
deer hunter; but few were the valley
sportsmen who had penetrated TO this
far land. The football was much too
heavy for Snowbird. The steps were
evidently on another trail that inter-
sected his own trail one hundred yards
farther up the hill. He had only TO
stand still, and in an instant the man
would come in sight.
He took one step into the thickets,
prepared to conceal himself If it be-
came necessary. Then he waited. Soon
the man stepped out on the trail.
Even at the distance of one hundred
yards, Dan had no difficulty whatever
In recognizing him. He could not
mistake this tall, dark form, the soiled,
slouchy clothes. the rough hair, the
intent, dark features. 1t was man
about his own age, his own height,
but weighing fully twenty pounds
more. and the dark. narrow eyes could
belong to no one but Bert Cranston.
He carried his rifle loosely in his arms.
He stopped at the forks in the trail
and looked carefully in all directions
Dan had every reason to think that
Cranston would see him at first glance.

Discussing disarmament, Admiral
Coontz advised against stopping any
of the 1916 building program so far as
big ships were concerned.
Secretary Daniels, in making public
his letter, pointed out that by allied
agreement the United States was obli-
gated to destroy the Osfriesland, and
other former German naval vessels
given this country, as soon as expert
ments under way were concluded. He
could think of no more fitting or USE
full method of destroying them, he said,
than by using them in aviation bomb
ing experiments. He intimated that
the old battleship Iowa, already fitted
with radio control apparatus, would
be used for a similar purpose.
The Osfriesland was one of the
more modern battleships of the former
kaiser's navy, mounting Pinch guns.
1t is fitted with very thorough sys-
tenn of bulkheads and water-tight COM

"Ah," the little man exclaimed, after
a moments exertion, now I've got

'.And we've got you!" shouted one
of the newspaper men as the Rallies
of the White House turned. Then the
surprised reporters found themselves

For mitigating circumstances the

room and showed them how he had
been preceded by other light-fingered

from the chairs of the secretaries of
state, commerce, and interior and the
attorney general.

Airplane and Bomb Against Battleship
D ANTICIPATION by the War depar


ment in experiments to determine
the value of aircraft against major ma
val vessels has been invited by Secre-
tary Daniels in letter to Secretary
Baker.
The first test will be conducted with
in ninety days, Mr. Daniels said. with
conditions similar to those of battle.
The captured German battleship Os-
friesland, of 26,500 tons, probably will
be used.
Admiral r. e. Coontz, chief of naval
operations, previously had told the
house naval committee that within
three months the Navy department
would bomb a large warship from the
air in the open sea in an effort to test
the theory advanced by Brigadier Gen
eral Mitchell Of the army air service
that airplanes had made capital naval
vessels useless.
Representative Mondell of Wyoming,
Republican floor leader, who preceded
Admiral CoontZ, warned the commit
tee that unless expenditures for mill
tary establishments were cut some
larger nations would be driven into
bankruptcy.
The United States should take the
lead in disarmament. he said, adding:
IF an agreement is not reached for
the limitation of ornaments and war
like expenditures in the near future
the fault will be that of America as
In former days the fault was that of
Germany"

Rodents Do Much Damage.

Next to the insects, the animals
that are chiefly harmful to man are
the rodents, an order of mammals
often regarded as wholly noxious.
David E. LantZ of the United States
geological survey finds that the ro-
dents of North and Central America
include about 1850 species of IT
genera, and of these, 100 species OF
A genera inhabit the United States
and Canada. Many of these, living in
deserts mountains and swamps, do
not come in contact with cultivated
soil. They cannot, therefore, be
classed as injurious. and many OF
them are preparing the soil for future
use. and there are other rodents that
are doing useful work in destroying
grasshoppers and similar pests. Ger
tain of the rodents, too, such as the
beaver and muskrat, have an eco-
nomic value as fur bearers. Native
rodents include among harmful kinds
the short tailed field mice, white-foot-
ed mice, cotton rats, kangaroo rats,
pocket gophers, ground squirrels,
prairie dogs, woodchucks and rabbits.
The house mouse and three kinds of
rats are the only rodent pests in North
America not native to the country.
They are the most injurious, how
ever and probably cause greater
losses than all native kinds COM
