returning, he proceeded to wash and
bandage 1t. 1t was bad cash from a
rock, and she had bled a good deal,
which was a good thing, relieving the
conclusion which had no doubt been
the cause Of the prolonged ipsensibil-
ity. Having ascertained that she
seemed to have received no bodily in
juries beyond Commissions, Lee exam
med her limbs. He saw that one knee
hung awry. In a moment he had the
gaiter off, and discovered that the
joint had been dislocated.
Short of the setting of broken
bone, there are few operations more
painful than the restoration of joint
into position, and Lee prayed fer
vently that the girls Inconsistencies

acquired with the Canadian army

groin that sent Lee stumbling.
For the first time Estelle screamed,
and that aroused Lee to the conscious
ness that he must finish his enemy
almost immediately, before aid arrived.
He shook away the film that was creep

seated from the kick, he closed with
Railway again. They went to the floor
of the hut together, and struggled
there like two dogs in the dirt.
There was no longer any attempt at

Lees throat, chung there, worrying

between khan and anti-klan factions,
in which S. Glenn Young, two gun

and Ora Thomas, his arch enemy and
leader of the anti-klan element, went
down with him. Two others were
killed, George Forbes, Young's lieu
tenant, and Homer Warren, said to be

The shooting is said to have oc-
Cured when Young and about twelve
followers met Thomas, who was alone,
in front of the European hotel.
Reports said that Young, who was
living at the Lyman hotel here and
was engaged in writing an autobiog-

enemy, was back in Williamson coun-

The two met in front of the hotel.
Young, reports said, Immediately drew
his weapon and opened fire. Thomas
is said TO have returned the fire, and
then the shooting became general,
Young, Forbes and Thomas dropping
to the ground with fatal wounds.

Republicans of IoUa Want
Senator Brookhdrt Ousted

Des Moines, Ex-senator Smith w.
Brookhart, for nearly three years the
storm center Of Iowa politics, but OF
whom little has recently been said
by even his most bitter opponents,
is again the political cynosure as a
result of his official divorce from the
republican party by the Iowa state
central committee
The division of party lines his out
look on politics has caused in this
state reached its fullest realization
when the official representatives of
republicanism in Iowa moved to have
the seat to which the senator was
elected by a majority Of 755 votes
last November, declared vacant on
the grounds of legal fraud and
deceit.
with the state legislature in ses-
sion here, Senator Brookhart was the
sole topic to engross the assembly
men.
The lengthy resolution adopted by
the committee yesterday which gave
the chronology of the Iowa republican
party's support of President Coolidge's
and Charles G. Dawes candidates. for
president and vice-president and
which ended in asserting that Senator
Brookhart's disavowal of the candi-
dates made his claim to the senator
ship election on the republican ticket
"a fraud and deceit" came in most
gu rters as distinct surprise.
The committees view is that the
senate could declare the seat vacant
and allow Gov Hammil to appoint q
senator to serve until the next gem
eral election.

mechanism which he was to manipulate
like some clumsy journeyman, called
in to repair the work of a master.
Fortunately Lee had assisted at
precisely that same operation several
times in the field; and, trying to Ndis-
regard the means of pain that came
from the girls lips as he proceeded, he
fumbled with the displaced bone.
But that struggle was terrible, for
the body Of itself knows no dignity.
Conscious, Lee knew that the girl
would neither have finched nor
moaned; but unconscious she could
not control the protests of the body,
which had to be restrained by some
thing almost brutal in its frank vio-
lence.
But Lee struggled on, feeling the
shaft head of the bone scour the edges
of the socket under the cap. A final
struggle, the weight of his whole bodv
and shoulders thrown to his task
and suddenly it was accomplished.

"BiddinP Prayer"

A prayer which bids or directs what
is to be prayed for is frequently
known as bidding prayer. This form
of exhortation, always concluding with
the Lords Prayer, was enjoined by the
fifty-ffth canon of the Anglican church
in 1903. to be used before all sermons
and homilies. 1t was, and in its
abridged form still is, very impressive,
allowing individuals to supply from
their own knowledge special cases Of
necessity under the different heads.

Of French Origin

The term ''tailor" comes from the
French taller, to cut. At one time the
tailor, or cissor. made clothes of all
descriptions, including underwear and
the padding and lining of armor; hence
the name "Taylors and Linen Ar
morers" which figures in the early char
tiers granted to the Merchant Taylors'
Company of the City of London.
