KLACENFURT: A SELF
DETERMINED AREA

The Klagenfurt area, the only region
in which plebiscite was provided for
in the treaty between the allies and
Austria has been retained by Austria
as result of the vote which was TAX
en- several months ago.
When the crazy-quilt patchwork OF
diverse peoples that made up the old
Austro-Hungarian empire was ripped
apart by the treaty of St. German and
rearranged more nearly in accordance
with nationality and language. it was
clear that the old Austrian province
of Carniola, extending from the klag-
enfurt area south almost to Fiume,
was Slavonic In its population. 1t
was therefore included in the Jugo-
Slav kingdom along with the other OBJ
viously Slavonic provinces in the
southern part Of the old empire: Bos-
MIA, Dalmatia, Herzegovina, Croatia
and Slavonia.
Carinthia, the province adjoining
Carniola on the north and containing
the Klagenfurt area, was recognized,
on the other hand, to be predominant
ly Teutonic as whole. But il was
seen that the southeastern section Of
the province, the valley Of the brave
river about Klagenfurt, had heavy
population of Slovenes. 1t was felt by
the allies that the question whether
the Teutons or the Slavs predominated
In the region should be definitely de-
termined and that the area should be
attached, according to the desires Of
the majority of the residents. to the
Teutonic republic of Austria or to the
Slav kingdom to the south.
The region which Austria retains as
result of the plebiscite is roughly
almond-shaped, approximately fifty
miles In extreme length and twenty-five
miles In extreme breadth, with an
area Of something more than 600
square Enthusiastically less than one
third that of Delaware. II contains
much mountain land but also portion
of the rich brave valley. one of the
most productive parts of Carinthla.
One of the most important results
OF the vote to the Austrians is that
they will retain the rich lead mines Of
Bleiburg, perhaps the 'most important
I'm all the old territory of Austria
Hungary. In the city of Klagenfurt,
with its population of about 25,0OO,
the Austrian republic retains one Of
it's important Woodworking centers
The Klagenfurt region came near
being bone of contention among
three nations instead of two. Its
western end almost touches the far
ing top of the Italian boot, and dur
ing a great part of the World war its
mountain peaks echoed the thunder
of the great Italian and Austrian guns
on the Isonzo front, a few miles TO

VALPARAISO, WHERE OUR
FLEET VISITED

Valparaiso. home of Chil6's naval
academy. was visited recently by the
United States Pacific feet while the
Atlantic fleet was anchored ut CallaO,
Peru.
The harbor of Valparaiso, while not
so remarkable rs that OF Rio de ia
metro where tropical vcrdure runs riot
among granite crags, nor so idyllic as
vivid, sun-bathed Naples, still deserves
TO rank with them and three or four
others as the most beautiful and strik-
ing of the important harbors of the
world Ii is no dctraciion 10 say that
Valparaiso's nane--"Vale of Para
dise"-is not merited. Such n name
suggests soft lines. rolling greensward,
flower-strewn meadows, shady paths,
noble groves. The beauty of Val
paraiso is more austere.
Sailing into Valparaiso the voyager
enters wide semi-circular bay flanked
by high capes. On narrow level
strip of ground that borders the curv-
ing shore line is the well built bust
ness section of the city. Behind and
above this level portion of Valparaiso
tower bluffs and steep semi-arid hills.
These highlands once hemmed in the
old city, but modern Valparaiso has
burst Its bonds. Fine castle-like resi-
dences now cling to the slopes of many
Of the hills or perch upon the edges
of the bluffs.
ra en- M
600. 1t is by far the most important
South American Pacific port, and the
annual value of it's commerce exceeds
that Of Montevideo on the Atlantic
coast.
While Beunos Aires and Montevideo
on the east coast have been handl-
capped by the shallowness of their
harbors, Valparaisos difficulties have
lain in the opposite direction. Its
waters are so deep that the building
Of breakwaters and jetties was de-
layed until 1912. The carrying out
Of the entire harbor Improvement now
under way will cost $15,OO0,OO0 or
more.
In 1906, the year in which San Fran
cisco was destroyed by earthquake
and fire, Valparaiso was also devas-
tated by the same two forces of de-
struction. Like San Francisco, South
Americas greatest Pacific port city
has risen from It's crumbled stone and
ashes not merely to rehabilitate itself,
but to become even greater and more
prosperous.
Valparaiso is in practically the same
latitude as Buenos Aires, Cape Town,
and Sydney, and is about the same
distance from the equator in the south
as San Francisco and Charleston, S.
c.. in the north. Because of South
Americas position considerably to the
east of North America, Chile's great
est port is almost due south of New
York, and therefore has about the
same time.
Warships are always to be found
in the harbor of Valparaiso, for this
is one of Chiles chief naval bases. II
is also the location of the Chilean
naval academy, whose buildings, on
a great promontory, dominate the har-
Dor. No better view of the city and
harbor Of Valparaiso can be had than
that from the parked grounds Of this
fine institution.

~ February 2s' 1915, Edmond
Dantes sailed into Marseilles.
He was but nineteen years of
age and ardently in love. His con-
science was clear; he had violated no
law. Yet the next night he was In a
cell in the gloomy Chateau DIFF, for
tress on q bare rock off Marseilles.
And fourteen years were to pass be-
fore he strobe again in the sunlight.
Three men had wrought his ruin.
Danglars envied Edmond's rapid pro-
motion. Fernand was craZed with love
for Mercedes, Edmond's beloved. Dan
glars wrote and Fernand dispatched a
letter warning the authorities to inter-
cept the misslve Edmond was bearing
to Paris. Chance decreed that this
warming addressed to villefort's ia
Their, fell into the hands Of the I'M
scrupulous Villefort himself.
OF this dark intrigue Edmond knew
nothing. At his captains dying re-
quest, he had called at Elba where he
been intrusted with a sealed letter.
Villefort, turn-coat devoted to the
aristocracy, had changed his name to
make men forget that his father was
a Bonapartist. He destroyed the In
eliminating letter before EdmOnd's
eyes and promised that the lad should
soon be free Even as he spoke the
words, he knew that in the disappear
ance of this youth lay his own security.
Thus it happened that while the
Corsican came out of Elba by stealth
and rode to Paris amid tumultuous
cheers, Edmond lay in dungeon. The
thunder Of the guns at Waterloo did
not penetrate the walls Of the Chateau
DIFF. Napoleon was borne away to
st. Helena; the Hundred days were
over. And Dantes knew naught OF
these things. He ate out his heart In
thoughts Of Mercedes and wondered
what mad freak Of fortune had thrust
him away from the world of men.
Days dragged into years. He lost
track of time. Confined in black and
Shiny dungeon, he saw only his jailer.
There were moments when he hoped
hours when he despaired weeks when
he raved in impotent anger. -Four years
rolled past. He was starving himself
to death. Then he heard rasping,
scratching noise. The spark Of human
hope burned anew. He swallowed his
broth; he must win back his strength.
Somewhere near him was q human
mole, burrowing stealthily, worming to-
ward freedom.
Four days later a section Of floor
ing fell in and out Of a dark tunnel
sprang an old man. He was the Able
Faria, a prisoner for eight years. His
tunnel, dug with arduous toll, had
failed to reach the sunlight, but IL led
to fellowship. unsupported by their
jailers, the two men met daily ana
studied unweariedly. Out of his ripe
wisdom and his prodigious memory
the Able taught Edmond mathematics,
history and languages.
Less guileless than Edmond, he was
able to prove, from the youths own
story, that Danglars, Fernand ana
Villefort were responsible for his Nv
Ing death. SO Edmond had a new In
centive. for freedom. He sought re-
venge. The Able revealed too the Sc

ence.
County Coroner s. A. Miller, Fri
day evening, ordered a postmorten
examination, and Drs. Morrow &
Day were called to take charge. DR..
Geo. s. Smith, county health officer,
was also present.
According to DR.. Day the heart was
found to be in good shape, the kid
neys showed some sort of chronic
disease, and there appeared to be a
chronic irritation of the stomach. The
stomach contained about a quart Of
foul smelling matter, mostly mucus
and fluids wit ha small quantity Of
food particles.
DR.. Day expressed the opinion that
his death resulted from some sort of
poison which paralyzed the nerve
centers.
The stomach and one kidney were
sent to the state chemist at Lawrence
for microscopic examination and it
will likely be the latter part of the
week before the result will be known.
It was the impression that Gallo
ways heart was in bad shape and that
the alcohol has affected it adversely,
but the finding of the heart in normal
condition disproved this theory.
