An Excursion and an Alarm.

invested with certain Importance.

thankless toll of treasure-hunting by
his stern taSkmaster. But at the same
time was provided with an annoying,
because unanswerable question which
had lodged at the back of my mind
like a crumb in the throat:
By what strange chance had the
copra gatherer gone away and left
Crusoe on the island3
One morning, instead Of starting d.
rectly after breakfast for the cave,
Mr. Shaw busted himself in front Of
the supply tent with certain explosives
which were to be used in the digging
operations later.
Having inquired Of the Honorable
Cnthbert and found that for IN hour
or two the boat would not be in
requisitiOn. permitted the beautiful
youth to understand that would not
decline an invitation to be rowed about
the cove. Mr.. Shaw had left his ma
rlne glasses lying about. and had
heen doing some exploring with them.
Under the great cliffs on the north
shore Of the bay / had seen an OBJ
ject that excited my curiosity. It
seemed to be the hull Of a small yes

who died the other day, was sergeant
in the same company as myself, and
the belle of the regiment, ay, and the
finest girl that ever had the breath OF
life between her lips, was Nancy
Dewey, the daughter of the color-ser-

is all very certain. But he is the only

COLUMBUS, O., Nov Livery
nook and corner of Ohio today had
Given itself over to celebration of the
day that ended the World war.
The stirring scenes of three years
ago. when the news of the signing of
the armistice was received in frenzied
fashion. were to be re-enacted in some
sections. or at least attempts to re-
stage them were to be made.
Indications point to the greatest
Armistice day celebration ever held
in Ohio; an organized tribute to the
part the United States played in the
World war, and TO the Ohio men who
gave their lives in the struggle.
Linked up with the services for the
unknown American soldier at the
Arlington national cemetery at Wash
ington. and the forthcoming disarma-
ment meeting, observance of Armistica
day here. as elsewhere in the country
has taken on triple significance this
year.
The clamor of celebrating will have
mingled with it prayers for success OF
the armament conference, a survey OF
the state shows.
Resolutions Adopted.
Religious denominations, chambers
of commerce, labor bodies and other
organizations have adopted resolu
tons, many of which have been for
warded to Washington, Urging that
the United States take the lead in the
disarmament meeting, by pledging It
self to do away with war preparations
Colleges and universities, schools
and other educational institutions I'M
pressively are staging celebrations
Most public schools were dismissed
after children had participated in me
morable programs.
State offices nearly all were closed
In some cities of the state, business
was at a standstill, the population
making a day of it."
Parades, memorials, and social al
fairs are on the days program all ove'
Ohio. In some cities. the parades viii
be participated in only by former
World war service men; in others, tri
butte will be paid to all men and wo
