By TOM JOHNSON.
(Continued.)

A classic example of the first method of
work was given by the Textile Union in its
work in the South, and, as far as know, its
work nationally. Under its former leader
ship the National Textile Workers Union fol-
lowed policy of building up paper districts
of the union all over the country without
plan, or, as far as one could see, purpose.
The result was that the weak forces of the
union were dissipated all over the country
and the work in strategic centers suffered
accordingly. In Georgia, for instance, an in
experienced comrade was sent into the field,
paid total wage and expense account averag-
ing around ST per week and instructed to
build up district of the union taking in the
whole state of Georgia. After months of
work the net results were some five or six
non-functioning mill committees scattered from
one end of Georgia to the other. The COM
rades simply went into a mill town, got some
connections with the workers and set I'D a
paper committee in the mill. Then off to an
other town to repeat. The existing commit
tees were, of course, neglected and promptly
fell to pieces while the organizers were en-
gagged in forming new ones in other mills.
Naturally enough the workers saw that we

 The story deals with the sudden rise to wealth of an Oklahoma fam fly when an oil well comes in a gusher and their desire to see Paris individually and collectively.
 The trip is made in grand style, and once in the French metropo- lis, Mrs. Peters is determined to marry her daughter to title. She plunges into society in spite of the protests of her less ambitious hus- band.
 The events that follow are as Imaginable as they are costly, and keep the family in state of con- stant excitement.

The committee which investigated the situation which causes so much gloom and evaporation, added a drop of consilation in this form:
 "The results obtained up to the present with regard to ratification of conventions concluded under the auspices of the league, are more satisfactory than those obtained in the case of general international conventions negotiated outside the league"

 We'll go together and see who it is,' he said decisively. And I tell you frankly, whoever he is, I'm going to give him to understand that you're my property from now on.
 Arm in arm they walked across the floor.

 The visitor rose as they entered the room .Clarice knew at glance that she never had seen him be- fore. He was a short, squatty man, with a penetrating glance under his bushy eyebrows.
 Pardon me for troubling you like this, Miss Day" he began. T would not, except that the matter is ur- gent. MT. Ricardi of the Emerald Dragon told me I should find you here" sss
 "Yes?" Clarice raised her daintily plucked eyebrows.
 There was robbery at the club tonight. You may have heard of it."
 T hadn't heard. How dreadful!' Clarice exclaimed. "Tell me about it."
 The man cleared his throat.
 Well, the safe in MT. Ricardis private office was broken into. II must have occurred when he was introducing a new dancing troupe for the cabaret. That's the only time he was out of his office. This we feel. rather indicates the thief had inside information. Besides the money. which was considerable some valuable jewelry belonging tc his wife was stolen

LOSES
 TO PAP TEAM
Moose Win to Co Into Tie
 with Vets in First Half of City League
It's anybody's first half now.

It's anybody's first half now.
 Last night the Moose, after trail ing the American Legion through the whole first half of the City League pennant race, reached Man ming for eleven safeties, won the baseball game from the Vets by a 5 to l score, and went into a tie for first place.
 While Manning, who is the Le- gion's best hurler, was hit frequent ly, he had pitched the night before and won a game for his team, so his loss last night was hardly a reflection on his pitching ability. Two nights in a row is hard on any pitcher.
 Both Score in First
 Two hits, fielder's choice and a wild throw gave the Moose one run in the initial inning. With the aid of an errorS passed ball and a hit, the Vets tied it up in the same frame. That ended the scoring until the fifth.
 It was good canto for the Paps. P. Schmitz famed. B. Schmitz singled, went to second and on to third on successive wild throws. He scored on a long single by F. Schmitz and Fred continued to second on the throw-in.
 Andrews tripled, scoring F. Schmitz, and himself scoring a moment later when Lansing singled. F. Schmitz scored again in the seventh when he doubled and came home on Andrews single.

DIARY OF ANDREE
BARES STRUGGLE
Heroic Story of Trek on Ice
Taking Them Opposite Di-
rection Covered in Pages.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
STOCKHOLM, September 2o.-Frozen
faded pages, so fragile now after SO
years that to turn them has been al
most to destroy them, have told the
story of the last days of August Salamon
Andree, Swedish explorer, and his two
companions, who in 1897 tried to fly
over the North Pole in a balloon.
The pages are those Of M. Andree's
diary, part of which he wrapped in an
old jersey and placed beneath his Arc
tic shirt next to his body before he lay
down to die on the ice of White Island
in late 1897. Thus preserved they were
found by DR.. Gunnar Horn and others
of q Norwegian Arctic expedition last
month with Andree'S remains and other
relics of the balloon expedition, and
were brought back here for minute ex-
animation and publication.
Some Phases Remain Mystery.
Some phases of the disaster which
overlook Andree ard his two COM
panions the pages do not make clear,
and they remain forever mystery, but
a remarkably clear and full account Is
given of part of the balloon voyage,
which ended nearly three days of the
long trek back toward land Of a final
eliminating disaster which doomed
them to death in Hvitoven, as White
Island is known.
The diary records the start of the
balloon from Danes Island, Spitzber-
gen, on July IL, 1897. with favorable
auspices for a successful flight over the
North Pole toward land on the opposite
hemisphere, where they hoped to come
down safely, much as did the dirigtble
Norge nearly 80 years later.
Misfortune Dogs Trail.
But almost from the start misfortune
pursued them. The balloons gas bag
leaked. and the balloon and its APP
purtenances became weighted down
with ice and hoar frost. 1t lost its
buoyancy. and at times bumped along
the ice. On the third day out there was
a fire in the cabin of the balloon, but it
promptly was extinguished.
The diary records then: THE balloon
again rose, but both valves were opened
in preparation for a landing. The next
week, from July IA to July 81. was
spent encamped on the ice, while a
sledge journey back toward land was
organized. The explorers, who besides
Andree were Nils Strindberg and Knut
Frankel, hoped to reach Franz Josef
Land, now known as Fridtjof Nansen
Land.
Reason for Course Clouded.
1t is not just clear why they should
have headed toward this little known
and uninhabited region instead of to-
ward Spitzbergen, where they had food
depots and there were some inhabitants,
but their march was eastward from
where they came down, less than 500
miles from the North Pole.
The doomed men struggled on day
