Fight-Situation Is Re-
ported Grave.

SIMLA, India, August is (P).-
Martial law was proclaimed today
in Peshawar and the surrounding
districts, which for fortnight have
been beleaguered by Afridi tribes
men.
BY the Associated Press
PESHAWAF, India, August 15.--
Threat of tribal attack against Pesha-
war persisted today with new and dam
gerous elements entering into the sitn-
alton.
Older heads among the Afridis, who
during the last fortnight menaced the
city, have gone back to the Tirah VIII
lagos, but they have been replaced by
new arrivals, principally young men.
The internal feud between the Musa
khols and the Mohmands has been
settled and the Habi of Turangzai is
attempting to raise men among them
to attack Peshawar.
A small Lashkar of Sunni Oralzais is
reported to be gathering on. the Khanki
River, about to attack Kohat, which is
strongly defended.
A foreign and political department
communique at Simla today described
the situation of Peshawar, where raid
ing Afridi tribesmen have been en-
gagged In an attack on the city, as Sc
rious and one Of considerable gravity
and danger.
The raiders total strength about
Peshawar was said to be about 200
now. They move about rapidly in
gangs of SO to 100 among the ravines
and walled gardens and villages" the
communique said.
The communique said that a number
OF the hostile trihesmen had left the
district and returned to the Tirah vii
lagos, but that reinforcements kept ar
irving and "the situation must be re-
garded as critical until the last of the
enemy have been definitely expelled
from the district"
AS precautionary measure one Brit
ish and three Indian battalions are be-
ing moved up from Jhansi in the united
provinces to Rawal Pindi, 100 miles
southeast of Peshawar.
The battalions are under the COM
rnand OF Brig. Gen. Robertson.

Chapter 8 ANNE MAKES AN ENEMY

The dance at Burkhalter's was already in full swing when Anne and Douglas came in sight of the ranch-house on the following night. A riot of motion and color wavered hcrcss the bars of light made by the open windows.
 The soft rock and sway of youth fui feet keeping time to an old country dance tune, the throb or fiddles and guitars, reached out irl- fect!ously into the night; above all' rang the stentorian cries of the leader calling out the figures.
 Anne and Douglas made thelr way through the crush of onlook- CTS who thronged yard and porch towards a window near the back of the dancing room, where they could watch the scene without call ing attention to themselves. Anne leaned against the window sill, ao- gorbed in the picturesque and lively Scene
 The huge, bare room was lighted by flickering oil lamps suspended at intervals from the walls, casting
