None Died Of Laughter.

strange, when you come 10 think
OF H." says Max Beerbohm IN And
Even Now" that Of all the countless
folk who have lived before our time
on this planet, not one is known in
history or In legend as having died
of laughter. Strange, too, that not to
one OF all the characters In romance
has such an end been allotted
HAS II ever struck you what a
chance Shakespeare missed when he
was finishing the second part OF King
Henry the Fourthr' Falstafr was not
the man TO stand cowed and bowed
while the young king lectured him and
east him of. Little by little, as Hal
proceeded In that portentous aliocu-
ton, the humor Of the situation would
have mastered old Sir John. His face,
blank with surprise at first, would
presently have glOwed and widened
and his whole bulk begun TO CULVER.
Lest ne should miss one word, he
would have mastered himself But the
final words would have been the sig
nal for the release Of all the roars
pent up in him; the welkin would have
rung; the roars, belize, would have
gradually subsidized IN dreadful
rumblings OF more than utterable or
conquerable mirth Thus and thus
only mig ht his life have been rounded
off with dramatic fitness"

SWEPT AWAY IN AVALANCHE
Tragedy In American Northwest
Graphically Described, BY Army
Officer Who led Party.

An American ofiicer tells n moving
story Of sudden and swift destruction
In our Northwest. 1t happened on Il
February day. when warm sun and "A
Chinook wind from the Pacific were
melting the snow. All along the trail
as the officer and his party wound up
the mountain side, great masses OF
snow seemed to overhang them. and
more than once the officer noticed how
anxious the grizzly haired old guide
seemed 10 be. Only narrow pnth had
been cleared through the snow, and
the 20 mules followed one another I'm
single file.
Halfway up they came to four cab
ms occupied by miners. Three brawny
men In red shirts stood at the door of
one Of the cabins talking as the party
filed past. Statutes were exchanged,
but the officers party had no occasion
TO halt.
They had gone about three hundred
feet, and were about TO make turn
In the trail, when the leader halted 10
look back. The guide was ahead-the
officer second. The line OF mules was
strung our for quarter OF mile, and
on foot among them were five packers,
all hafbreedS.
The officer heard no signal of dan
ger, no cry OF alarm. With the swift
ness of thought the snow, 500 feet up
the mountain, began 10 move. The
width of the avalanche was about half
a mile, and II moved very rapidly.
There were thousands Of tons of snow,
hundreds of trees, hundreds OF great
bouders.
In few moments Ii was all over,
and Il cloud OF what seemed smoke
hung over the spot. II drove off down
the mountain after two or three min
utes, and the officer looked for his pack
train.
Not n man nor mule had escaped.
He looked for the cabins and they, too,
had disappeared. Indeed, the very
trail had been swept down into the val
ley mile below, and almost across Ii.
For space OF half mile wide there
was neither tree nor shrub-nOt
yard OF earth. The avalanche had
ground It's way down to the rocks

The Parliament Clocks.

Among the various expedients 10
which governments are resorting In
these days TO raise money, no one
seems TO have suggested the taxation
OF clocks. The idea of such n tax is
strange today, yet no less "a financier
than the young Pitt adopted II in 1907
as part OF the means 10 pay for the
Napoleonic wars. 1t was not long in
force. II failed to get much revenue.
and by reducing the number OF clocks
bought IL threw many skilled workers
out OF employment. Indirectly. how
ever. IL enriched collectors In later
generations with an interesting article
Of furniture. Abandonment of private
clocks led enterprising tradesmen-
chiefly victuallers-tO provide clocks
for their customers. From their origin
In the Finance act Of the day the
quasl-public clocks were called parlia-
ment clocks, and they. seem 10 have
been turned out chiefly by one firm. Al
any rate there is one standard pat
tern-an upright case of grandfather
style, always with black face and
white hands and figures. Those which
have survived the intervening century
and a quarter are now much sought
after.

UNITED IN HONOR
Brave Belgians to Be Together
on Judgment Day.
Two Defenders OF The Liene Forte
Await the Day When They viii
Join Their Comrades.

A solemn assignation Is to be kept
in the Fort de Loncin, at Liege, In
Belgium, writes II. j. Cruikshank in
the London Daily Mail. The day when
il will be kept is known 10 no man.
but II surely will be.
The tale begins amid the smoke and
thunders OF gigantic battle. Ii is the
early days of the long terror. The
I.iege forts, most sorely tried, most
faithful OF defenses, are being smashed
and shattered by monStrous guns.
In particular. the Fort de Loncln
holds out an incredibly long time. II
Is sheeted in flame and rent by ex-
ploslons Stonework is splintered like
glass and heavy iron twisted like pa
per Small hope here for poor flesh
and-blood humanity The big magn-
zine blows up. There is the horror
of a dazzling rush OF flame, Of a
thunder and quaking like the end Of
the world. Two hundred soldiers lie
buried forever, deep beneath a noun
tain OF concrete. which has been
hurled savagely into the solid earth
by the force OF the explosion.
Al last the fort is surrounded and
Oyerrun. The valiant Colonel Naes-
sence, who has led the forlorn hope,
is taken prisoner, and with him such
few Of his men as remain alive. Among
them is an excellent y. c. O., Gabriel
10y name. Death is threatened-in-
deed, seems close at hand. Il will
die with my soldiers" cries the leader
with the gesture of the Latin tempera-
ment. But they spare him.
Here is the second chapter of the
story. Deep amid the wreckage of the
Fort de Loncin there has been built
crypt. 1t is cold and as dark at noon
IA at night. In wooden collins, on
whitewashed shelves, repOse the re-
mains OF forty-seven soldiers who died
in the defense of Fort de Loncin In
those terrible days of II. They sleep
deep and quiet, with those other 200
who are buried beneath the concrete.
The crypt is winding and devious, on
the model of the ancient catacombs.
1t is n serene afternoon in the year
OF peace, 1927. Colonel Naessence is
courteOusly conducting us over the
fort where he made SO stout stand.
He is gray-haired. gravely- spoken. log
zeal. He tells the history Of the de-
Tense very modesty. IL is quite by
accident that one catches the ends Of
the story. Ii is from Gabriel that ii
comes. He stands there blinking in
the sunlight, the typical old sergeant
major retired and in "civvies.'
There are forty-seven collins in the
crypt down there"
THAT is So"
"But there are forty nine places, so
you say. How is that?'
There are two who have not yet
been carried there"
"Where are they?"
M lie Colonel is the one. | am tie
other II is his purpose TO be with his
soldiers in death. And l too. Forty
eight and forty-nlne will be- in their
places. The crypt will be complete
The valorOus defenders Of this Liege
fort will meet forever in the cool,
dark crypt. 1t Will be the last roll
call In the Fort de Loncin.
