And the Republican ‘gubernatorial candidate was forced, in the end, to recant his opposition and.to agree, tacticly, that he would sigh the pri- mary law.

In Indiana; the alibi which Harry New and A. J. Beveridge can offer is. that “somebody knifed me.” In- diana is rapidly becoming .an un- pleasant state for a politician to in- habit. New was “knifed” by one set in the primaries and now Bev- eridge’s friends charge that New’s supporters “knifed” Beveridge in the election.

Allen’s in- dustrisl court was distasteful - to many “citizens, including roganized labor.; - Nearly everywhere the same thing _was true—it was men and not great national - issues which made up th voters’ minds. . BROUILLARDS SURPRISED Mr. and Mrs. Paul Brouillard were pleasantly surprised Sunday after- noon at ‘their home, 507 Mississippi avenue, it being their fifth wedding enniversary. They were presented many beuatiful \gi!u. Those present |were Messrs. and Mesdames Fred Malzahn, Nat Brouillard, Ed Brouil- lard, 'Charles. Hook, Mrs. Agnes Rob- inson, .

Ho thereby saved bis parents $190., FoE ) SCHOOL PUPILS DRINK MILK DURING RECESS (Continued from page 1) with a straw at 10 o‘clock and 2 -o‘clock recesses. Many of the child- ren who do not drink milk at home are. doing so at school with the rest of the children. Most children are accustomed to lunching at home in the forenoon and afternoon and the teachers find that nourishment in the mid-forenoon and afternoon stimulates the work of the pupils. This of course, is one object of the plan being carried out by the club. At the North and East schools, the teachers are to serve the milk, twice ‘ach day, while at the Lincoln and Central schools, members of the club thave been appointed for the work. At the Central school the following club members are to serve as fol- lows: Monday. Mrs. A. P. White; ‘Tuesday. Mrs_ G. M. Torrance; Wed- | Sasday, Mrs, F. S. Arnold; Thursday, i w. «. puttman; kriday, Mrs. W. L Brooks Mrs. E. A. Barker and Mrs. E. H. Marcum will act as substitutes in case any of the other ladies are unable to do this work on their specified day. At the Lincoln school the follow- ing are to serve: Monday, Mrs. George * Bridgeman; Tuesday, = Mrs. Trimble; Wednesday, Elizabeth M. Jones; Thursday, Mrs, Nelson; Fri- day, Mrs. Sanders. Mrs. Harry Bridgeman and Mrs. Jack Stiles will act as substitutes for this school. The dance given at the armory lats Friday evening assisted in pro- viding funds for this work. The dance was attended by about the the same number of people as that gven by the club two years ago, but on this occasion, the admission price was $1 instead of $2. . The Friday evening dance was at- tended by 136 couples, giving the club a working fund for this new plan, which has already been op- erated successfully in other cities, and also at the Bemidji Teachers college. In two weeks of milk dis- tribution to the pupils, all but one of them showed an increase in weight from one to six pounds, and at the same time an improvement in their work, +FARM BUILDINGS NEED CARE iGood Paint Will Lengthen Years of Frame Structuree—Nourishment s Essential, Farmers have for years wrestled "Wllh and solved more or less satls ifactorily the various feed problems Ipresented by their occupation. They ‘have had to deal with the question lof the balanced ration in hog feed. |Galry cow feed, horse feed, chicken !feed and even plant food.

Presently Gale, upon turning a sharp corner, was utterly amazed to see that the split in the lava sloped out and widened into an arroyo. It was so green and soft and beautiful {n all the angry, contorted red, surrounding -that Gale could scarcely credit his -sight. Blanco Sol whistled his wel- “¢ome to ‘the scent of water. Then Gale saw a great hole, a pit in the shiny lava, a dark, cool, shady well. There was evidence of the fact that at flood seasons water had an outlet into the arroyo. The soil appeared to be a fine' sand, in which a reddish tinge predominated; and it was abund- antly covered with a long grass, still partly green. Mesquites and palo verdes dotted the arroyo and gradu- ally closed in thickets that obstructed the view. “Shore it all beatg me,” exclaimed Ladd. “What a place to hole-up in! We could have hid here for a long time.. Beldin’' was shore right about the Indlan. An’ I can see Rojas’ finish somewhere up along that awful hell-hole.” Camp was made on a level spot. Yaqui took the horses to water, and then ‘turned them loose in the arroyo. It was a tired and somber group that sat down to eat.. Mercedes was calm, but her great dark eyes burned in her white face. Yaqul watched her. The others looked at her with unspoken pride. Presently Thorne wrapped her in his blunkets, and she seemed to fall asleep at once. Little of Yaqul's purpose ur plx could be elicited from him. i rangers and Thorne, however, talke in low tones. It was absolutely im possible - for Rojas_ and :his men tc reach the waterhole before: noon "of the ‘next day. - And long" before that time the fugitives would have ‘decided on a plan of defense. “What stuns me is that Rojas stuck to our trail,’* said Thorne, his lined and haggard face expressive of dark passion. “He has followed us into this fearful desert. He'll lose men, horses, perhaps his life. He's only a bandit, and he stands to win no’ gold. All for a poor little helpless woman— just a woman! I can't understand it.” “Shore—just 'a woman,” replied Ladd, solemnly nodding his head. Then there was a long silence, dur- ing ‘which the men gazed into the fire. Those were cold, hard, grim faces upon which the light flickered. “Sleep,” sald Yaqul. Thorne rolled in his blanket close beside Mercedes. Then one by one the rangers stretched out, feet to the fire. Gale ‘found that he could not sleep. His eyes were weary, but they would not stay shut; his body ached for rest, yet he could not lie still. The Yaqui sat like an image carved out of lava. The others lay prone and quiet. Would another night see any of them lie that way, quiet forever? Gale sat up after a while and again watched the fire, Nell's sweet face floated like a wraith in the pale smoke — glowed and flushed and smiled In the embers. Other faces shone there—his sister’s—that of his mother. Gale shook off the tender memories. This desolate wilderness with its forbidding silence and its dark promise of hell on the morrow— this was not the place to unnerve one- self with thoughts of love and home. Toward dawn Gale managed to get some sleep. Then the moining broke with the sun hidden back of the uplift of the plateau. The horses trooped up the arroyo and snorted for water. After a hurried breakfast the packs were hidden in holes In the lava. The gaddles were left where they were, and the horses allowed to graze and wander at will. Canteens were filled, a small bag of food was packed, and blankets made into a bundle. Then Yaqui faced the steep ascent of the laya slope. The trail he followed led up on the right side of the fissure, opposite to the one he had come down. It was a steep climb, and encumbered as' the men were they made but slow prog- ress. At length the rims widened out ‘and the red, smoky crater yawned be- neath. Yaqui left the trail and began clambering down' over the rough and twisted convolutions of lava which formed the rim. It was with extreme difficulty that the party followed him. The choya was there to hinder pas- sage. Finally the Indian halted upon a narrow bench of flat, smooth lava, | and his followers worked with exceed- ing care and effort down to his posi- tion. At the back of this bench, between | bunches of choya, was a uiche, a shal- low cave with floor lined apparently with mold. Taqui spread blankets inside, left the canteen and the sack of food, and with & gesture at once . \bumble. xet *hzt Of @ chief, he in- COPYRIGHT “ZOC— ~ HARPER AND BROTHERS. | | Total Cash’ assets { few more gestures and fewer words disclosed his plan.” In this inaccessible nook Mercedes was to be hidden. The men were to go around upon the opposite rim, and block the trail leading down to the waterhole. Ladd chose the smallest gun in the party and gave it to Mercedes. “‘Shore it's best to go the limit on bein’ ready,” he said, simply. “The chances are you'll never need it. But it you do—" He left off there, and his break was significant. Mercedes answered him with a fearless and indomitable flash of eyes. Thorne was the only one who showed any shaken xerve. His leave- taking of his wife was affecting and hurried. Then he and the rangers carefully stepped in the tracks of the Yaqul. He strode on up the trafl toward a higher point, where pres- ently his dark figure stood motionless against the sky. The rangers and Thorne selected a deep depression, out of which led several ruts deep enough for cover. Here the men lald down rifies and guns, and, removing their heavy cartridge belts, settled down to wait. Jim Lash crawled into a little strip of shade and bided the time tranquilly. Ladd was restless and impatient and watchful, every little while rising to Jook up the far-reaching: slope; and then to the right, where Yaqui's dark figure stood out from a high point of the rim. Thorne grew silent, and seemed consumed by a slow, suller rage. Gale was neither calm nor free of a gnawing suspense nor of a wait- ing wrath. -But as best he could he put the pending action out of mind. It came over him all of a sudder that he had not grasped the stupen- dous nature, of this desert setting There .was the -measureless red slope its. lower ridges: finally sinking intc white sand dtines toward the blue sea The cold, sparkling light, the white sun, the deep ‘azure of sky, the feeling of boundless expanse all around him —these meant high altitude. South ward the barren red simply mergec into distance. The field of craters rose in high, dark wheels toward the dominating peaks. When Gale with- drew his gaze from the magnitude of these spaces and heights the crater beneath him seemed dwarfed. Yet while he gazed it spread and deep ened and multiplied its ragged lines No, he could not grasp the meaniny of size or distance here. There wac 100 much to stun the sight. But thc mood in which nataure had create’ this convulsed world seized hold upor him.
