 As Indiana seems to have the floor today. 1t may not be amiss to relate one more story emanatnig from and appertainlng to the Hoosier state. The story was called forth by the fact that George Lockwood. secretary of the republican national committee. admitted at the Adams dinner that he had spent a goodly part of his young and eventful life in Peru--not the South American Peru, but the Indiana Peru-and thereby hangs this tale.
 It seem that George Ade, or per- haps it was Booth Tarkington, to- gether with a friend from George Lockwood's home, were touring Eu- rope few years before the war, and somewhere in the wilds of the Black forest, or somewhere, they chanced to meet Viscount Lascelles, who mar ried the Princess Mary a fey months ago. Lascelles is described as being at the time an almost exact counter part of Lord Dundreary-tall, bland and brawly.
 There were introductions all around and Lascelles was interested to know where the foreigners came from. Tarkington announced that he wes from Indianapolis and his friend an- Eounced that he was from Peru.
 "Ah, how very extraordinary" re- marked the viscount. Do you knew l have always wanted to go out to Peru, you know, for I've always wanted to shoot an Inca or somo- thing"

When at last Eve arrived at the
Mace of pines again, and saw. the
al. spectral glimmer of Quintana's

B1t dawn was not very far away
and there remained little time for
the taking alive of a dangerous
man.
Where two enormous pines grew

scooped out big hollow in the i'm

here she placed her trap. 1t took
all her strength and skill to set it;

Of the sapling pine.
And now, working with only the
faintest glimmer of her torch, she
covered everything with pins

Eve could hear him p;lirc dry

tree trunks grew reddar; pungcnt
reek Of smoke was drawn through
the forest aisles. She shifted it,
listened, and watched, her rifle
across her knees.
Eve never had been afraid Of any
thing. She was not afraid CT this
man. # it came to combat she
would have to kill. 1t never entered
her mind t. fear Quintana's rifle.

She thought Of Stormont-sat

Then the memory of Darragh

Constantine ESCAPES Greece On WarSkiL
Situation in the Near East
May Be Only the Beginning
of Great War of the World

Good Christian people of America, good
citizens, beneficiaries Of our occidental civ.
ihzation center your attention upon the war
in the Near East.
Do you think that It does not affect you
because it is SO far away? It concerns you
more than the European War did.
The European War was merely war be-
tween white peoples, Christian peoples, So
called civilized peoples family quarrel,
as it were-no matter how dreadful, how
unwarrantable it was.
This situation in the Near East may be
the beginning Of the great race war, the
great-truly great-war Of tho world-the
war of the oriental races against the occi-
dental races-the war of strange religions
and strange standards of living and stand.
ards of morality, and strange social castles
and customs, against the civilization and the
standards of life and the democratic social
conditions which determine our existence.
It may be the beginning of another tide
of oriental invasion, Of yellow peril, tide
of terror, slaughter, devastation such as
menaced Europe when Atilla swept down
upon the white races with his horde Of
Huns; and when the Turks carried the
banners Of Mahomet with cruelty and
fanaticism TO the gates Of Vienna.
II this situation in the Near East Is not
the beginning Of such an invasion, IL Is at
least the prelude to 1t, the clear indication
of a situation which may make such dan
ger possible.
army of Greece and has satisfied his hatred
hideous acts Of outrage and bloodshed In
Smyrna.
The Turk has dared to challenge the
power of the greatest Of the European
nations, to defy France and Italy and even
England. Italy has confessed her inability
to resist the Turkish advance. France, with
her army Of 3,800,0 900 men, Is unwilling to
use it for any other purpose than the
plunder of Germany.
England is left alone, hundreds of miles
from her base, with practically only her
navy to depend upon to repel the Turk
and protect civilized, Christian Europe
against what may be the first blow-at any
rate the first indication-of the oriental
menace.
Where are the bulwarks of Europes
safety and civilization? Where are the
great Caucasian nations that lay IS the
first effective line Of defense against orr
entail attack?
The great Empire of Austria, which
turned back the Turkish tide 200 years ago,
is broken to pieces, reduced to powerless-
ness, divided into small ineffective states
to make subjugation easy by united orr
entail advance.
Where is Germany Weakened by war,
forbidden to recover, denied the right to
defensive force-drsined Of every atom of
its economic strength to satisfy the re.
venges Of France and to maintain Frances
imperialistic purpose to keep all Central
Europe disunited and PROSTATE.
Where is Russia? Alienated by the in
suits of the Allies, in which we duly joined; /;
driven from association with the other ma
tions of Europe into very probable alliance
with the yellow races of Asia.
