Thereafter Sir Paul had n series Of
thrilling adventures. For ten months
he lived in Petrograd and Moscow un-
der various guiscs while he penetrated
the innermost circles of the Bolsheyiki
and gathered information of the highest
value. Often he was hard pressed By
Bolshevik spies. To avert suspicion he
obtained position in a munition fac
tory, earned promotion and enjoyed the
confidence Of the Soviet authorities.
When Mt last a draft was made, he was
forced to enlist IN the Red army and
was stationed with an infantry regi-
ment near pctrograd.

This is the brides second more or
less unconventional marriage. The
first, when she became the wife of
Ogden Livingston Mills, occurred in
little town in France, but 1t was

and the then American Ambassador to
England. Whitelaw Reid. besides some
of the relatives of the bride and groom,
whose family trees branched into the
best known American families.
The scene Of that first marriage
was so quaint, with its contrast Of the
richest and most lavishly bejeweled
and gowned women and the simplest
and plainest peasant surroundings,
that It was nine days wonder and
quite the social sensation Of 1911. A
man who was present then wrote home:

With the resumption of work in Butte copper mines and the Ana conda shelter, in which more than 5000 men are already employed, with the prospect of other mines opening up in the near future and employing as many more, a decid- ed rift is formed in the clouds that have for so long hung over the metal mining industry. Another hopeful sign for copper is the decis- ion of the Britannia company to at once rebuild their 2500-ton con- centrator.
