marriage of convenience with Peter will pro-

I'm counting on you, too, Max" she said.
He flushed and was about to say something,
then turned and left without word.
In the weeks that followed, Helen quietly
organized what was left of her old gang
into an astonishngly efficient band Of sab
oteurs The young men she knew were
away In the mountains, fighting the NaZis,
but there were plenty of young women and
high school boys willing 10 undertake dan
gereous missions under her leadership, and
things soon began TO happen.
German military cars in Norway suddenly
developed tire trouble. Somebody had Sc
creted safety razor blades between tire ana
rim in such way that they cut through the
rubber irreparaby
Nazi tank columns depending on road
signs wound up in swamps and were am
bushed Somebody had switched the road
signs.
In Nazi supply depots stocks dwindled in
explicably. Nazi ammunition dumps and ar
senels about Oslo caught fire, blew up.
Two of the women in Heens gang were
daughters of a wholesale food merchant In
oslo. One organized a Black Market Ihe
other organized a White Market
The White Market saw to it that the best
Of food did not get to the Germans but went
to loyal Norwegtans.
The Black Market catered only to Nazi
officials From the day they invaded Norway
they began piling up stocks Of wines, liquor
and table luxures. buying out oslo shops with
Nazi marks which cost the invader only paper
and printing ink. Soon, however, they found
no more luxuries TO buy in the open market.
1t was then that Helen's lieutenant won
their favor by operating a Black Market
where they could buy the best of food and
liquor at reasonable prices. She made Proht

She had such sparkling

of a gay gang of Bohemian youth re-

At times she would delight her gang by

Until the spring Of 1910 life seemed
carnival to her and her gang. Then on April
Q the Nazs swept into Norway and the car
nival became carnage as the Norwegians tried
TO stop the Nazi army.
Peter Lund," an Olympic ski champion,
whose real name must not be divulged, dashed
into Hclens studio on the day Of the invasion
and exclaimed:
Don't even stop to put on your hat! The
Nazis are here. I'm off TO the mountains to
be with the army but I'll see you safe on the

If you marry in May you'll rue
the day, according to an old English
proverb which is in line with the
traditional antipathy on marrying
in this month.
Although there is little feeling
against May marriages at the pres
ent time, it seems that every ctun-
try has had prohibitions and warn
ings against tying the conjugal knot
in the month of May.
In Scotland there is proverb:
Marry in May, Rue for aye" To
give emphasis to the same supersti-
tion, the same people assert:
From marriages in May, all
BARNS die and decay" An old
Scotch clergyman told his young con-
gregation that "The girls are stark
mad that wed in May. Soothsayers
predicted all manner of evil to those
who dared to defy the superstition
The following verse gives such ar
indication:
Married in May and kirked in green.
Bath bride and groom won't long
be SEEN"
In all soberness and sincerity the
old saying went that women disobey-
ing the rule would be childless or if
there were children the first born
would be an idiot and the couple
would not live happily together.
Even the famous writer, Sir Wal
ter Scott had this fear for it is re-
corded that he hurried away from
London that his daughters wedding
might not take place before the op-
ening of the inauspicious month.
May marriages are considered uli-
lucky in France, and the following
rhyme is recited:
Isl lie commun peuple dit vrai
La Mauvaise s'espouse en- Mai"

commander of the Department of

a Methodist minister, and two for
mer Indian agents, A. B. Meacham
and L. S. Dyar, was sent to settle
the difficulties. After several unsat-
isfactory conferences, another meet
ing was arranged for April IL, 1873,
to be held in the Modoc stronghold
near Tule lake.
The commissioners, accompanied
by Frank Riddle, a frontiersman,
and his Modoc wife, Tobey Riddle

interpreters, were to meet Captain
Jack and his warriors, unarmed and
under flag of truce. Meanwhile a
plot had been Matched among the
Modocs to murder the peace COM
missioners. At first, Captain Jack
refused to have anything to do with
the scheme. But when his warriors
put woman's hat and shawl on
him and taunted him for being a
coward, he finally consented.

it was betrayed to Tobey Riddle by

Dictator of Skagway

Dictator OF SkagWay
LIS name was Jefferson RAN
II dolph Smith and he was born
in Georgia in 1860, all of which
sounds like wonderful background
for the story of Southern gentle
man. But he was gambler and
a crook who became "Soapy" Smith.
He got his name in Leadville,
Colo, where he sold suckers bars
of soap supposedly wrapped in $40
bills. He was gambler and conf
dence man in Denver and Creede,
Colo, where he became dictator"
of the camp, succeeding Bob Ford,
slayer of Jesse James.
When the Alaskan gold rush be-
gan, he went up to Skagway and
found the town wide open. There he
soon became leader of gang that
used his saloon as headquarters for
fraud, robbery and even murder.
His diSrespect for law was so fla
grant that it soon became too much
even for that lawless community. A
citizens committee held closed
meeting tn decide what to do about
it. No decision was really neces-
sary, as ''Soapy" tried to crash"
the meeting with a Winchester rifle
but was fatally shot by an armed
guard.
AS a reminder of the daring days
of the Klond;ke, the town of Skag-
way today shows huge rock carve
IN the form Of skull and bearing
only one name-"Soapy" Smith
who Travelled thousands of miles
from home to seek adventure and
fame and got both-with dishonor.

monument which bears this simple
inscription: Edward Richard

a wild and desolate region out on

connection between these two widely
separated places.
In 1872 little band of Modoc In
dians, led by Chief Kei-in-to-poses,
commonly known as Captain Jack,
left the reservation because the
Klamath Indians there refused to let
them live in peace. They returned
to their ancestral homes on the Lost
river and when the military was
called upon to drive them back, they

inflicted heavy losses upon the SOL

For several months this war
dragged along until the government,
having failed to whip the Modocs,

conquering them. A peace commits

High School Loses
To Central 5 To 2

Bluffton High schools inexperienc-
ed baseball nine lost their second
game of the season when they were
defeated by Lima Central High
school in a well-played game at Fau-
rot park Monday afternoon by a
score of to 2.
The two teams were about evenly
matched with the margin OF victory
provided by Catcher Jack Malsch's
long home run in the third inning
with two aboard.
Jim Gratz, Bluffton pitcher, fan
ned four Central batters. Cuby
Basinger, the Pirates lead-off hitter
topped both teams with the stick get
ting two doubles and single.
Central scored in the opening in
ming on Davidian's single, passed
ball and Bishops safety to left.
Bluffton tied the count in the second
on two passes and Basinger's second
double in as many times at bat.
The Dragons put on the clincher
in the third with a four-run rally.
A pass to Davidian, Willoughbys
single and force-out set the stage
for Maisch's towering home run over
Basinger's head in deep left field.
He circled the bases before the ball
was returned to the inield. Another
run came over on a pass, Dlllon's
double and an error.
Bluffton scored its other run in
the fifth on Burkholder's triple and
GRATIS single The Pirates filled the
bases in the first and seventh after
two were out, but on each occasion,

near at hand. The other commits
sioners were not SO sure and one of
them proposed that they go to
the meeting armed. This Candy
also refused to do.
So they set out for the Indian
stronghold. The insolent behavior
of the warriors soon convinced the
commissioners that Tobey Riddles
warning had been a true one. The
climax came when one of the Mo-
docs demanded that all the soldiers
be removed from the country and
Candy refused to grant the demand.
A moment later the Indians drew
concealed weapons and opened fire.
Candy, Thomas and Meacham were
shot down. Dyar and Riddle fled
for their lives with the bullets whis-
ting around them. Tobey Riddle
was dubbed to the ground but Cap
tain Jack interviewed to save her life.
When a warrior started to scalp
Meacham, who was still alive, she
cried out Soldiers coming!" Her
quick wit saved Meacham's life, for
the murderers Immediately fed.
The tragedy of the Lava Beds was
over.
Later Captain Jack and his war
riors were captured when some of
the very Indians, who had called
him coward and forced him to con-
sent to the attack on the commits
sioners, turned traitor and revealed
his hiding place in the Lava Beds
to the soldiers. He and three 9TH
ers named Schonchin John, Black
Jim and Boston Charley were placed
on trial for the murder of Candy and
Thomas. On October 3, 1873, they
were hanged at Fort klamath and
lao others were sent to Oklahoma as
prisoners of war.
