The Strange Case of By Frederick Lewis, Miss Walton, coming to the door, an eager message on her lips, turned silently and pityingly away. Some betraying sound reached bim, however, and he lifted his head with a atart, blinking to find the lamplight paling before the gray of morning. Yawning, he got to his feet and crossed to the window. He flung it wide and drew in great breaths of the chill alr, A heavy fog was wrapping the city in dense gray waves, and from the river came the minor monotony of warning whistles. Dreary as It was, his heart lightened; for after all, it was morning, and he was still young enough to feel that nothing can be quite so bad in the day as it is in the shadows of the night. For the first time since Mary's attack of madness in the court room he realized fully how tremendous an asset the tragedy was to the defense, and In spite of his grief, as a lover, over her suffering, the lawyer in him exulted in the episode which cemented into place the corner- stone of his case. The thought of this lent a hint of buoyancy to tired body as he made another trip to'the cell where, at Dr. Foster's orders, they had carried Mary, still screaming with frenzy. But it was the lover rather than the lawyer who had surged uppermost by the time he reached the door, and all thoughts of the trial were submerged in an overween- ing anxiety and pity for the slender girl Who was paying so heavy a price for her father's sin of drunkenness, Mary herseif was sleeping soundly when he glanced into the cell, and Dr. ¥oster was on his feet, frankly stretching, whi RUSSIANS START HEAYY OFFENSIVE Germans Oount?v.e; Nine Thousand Dead Before Lines After it is Over, BUSY With the slackening of the fight- ing around Verdun, the Russians have started a big offensive move- ment against the Germans on the eastern front. A rald by German seaplanes on the east coast of Eng- land and by French airmen on Mets and other German towns, the sink- ing of a French torpedo destroyer by a submarine in the Adriatic, and the reported torpedoing of an Aus- trian’ hospital ship by an entente underwater boat are recorded in of- Berlin chronicles an attack of great violence by the Russians around Driswiaty lake and Lake Narocz, but says the Russians were repulsed with great losses, 9,270 Russian dead having been counted in the Lake Norocz regiom. Attack is Repulsed. Saturday the Germans in the Vaux- Damloup sector, northeast of Verdun, began another spirited attack aga'nst the French, but were griven back. The at- tack was not pushed again during Sun- day, and only Intermittent bombardments took place. Berlin reports the recapture of some ground from the British northeast of Vermelles, in the region of La Basse and the driving of the French from a position London admits the capture by the Ger- mans of three mine craters at the Hohen- zollern redoubt. wel last bt lull nou lth .......':.:m f Y close .’,:'n.. ‘fi of lbtu-.l:- -:'-:mm-'n the - B8 was pald on Cser: of orders 1% | OMAHA LADS WHO RUN AWAY i FOUND AT NEBRASKA CITY | d P()Oh.

Langdon's voice broke on the words, and Dr. Foster put out his younger man reassuringly, saying ket some rest now “Oh, I'm right,” you look done up.” sald Langdon. “But, doctor, is she—is it going to be possible to g0 on with this trial? Can Mary bear it “1 think so." ‘Of course yesterday's scene was bad, very bad. But you must realize that the attack, while it was plainly due to the whiskey thrust upon her was only to some extent brought about by the fact that the liquor was handed her at a time when she was hysterical and had been re-enacting events. that kept her earlier experiences constantly in her mind. Given | healthy surroundings and happiness, 1| wouldn’t worry about attacks in the fu- ture. But, it's a fine reflection upon an American city,” he continued harshly, drawing Langdon out into the hall #o as not to wake Mary. “A fine thing when it impossible to keep one woman from the sight of drunken men and the | smell of lauor.’ Langdon nodded absently, for his heart was echoing the earlier words of the great allenist: “Giving healthy surroundings and happiness 1 wouldn't worry about attacks in the future,” and he was vow- | ing to himself that, cost what it might, | he would yet win freedom and happiness for her. He had not dared to hope that she would be well enough for the trial to continue for some days at least, but when she woke a few hours later she vowed she was perfectly able to go into court even then. And g0, ™ more than agf hour late, the proceedings were con- tinued. That hour had seemed a very short time to Mary and to Langdon, but it was a very long one to the excited spec- tators who crowded the rooms to the doors, whispering excited reminiscenses of the day before. Whatever doubts had lingered in the | minds of the public as to the veracity and the strength of the defense built up by Langdon had been shattered at one blow. For Mary, as everyone said, | might indeed have teen actress enough to felgn madness at the sight of the drunken policeman, but she could not have feigned that great brulse on her shoulder, The shadow of the Rripping hand with those livil scars beneath it told mutely of how the cruel fingers had torn into the tender fles The newspaper bearing Dr. Foster's ar- ticle on ““Repressed Psychosis” which the district attorney had co sarcastically in- troduced as evidencs, had been pored over by every juryman, and from coast to coast the dramatic story of the scene in court was the one subject at the breakfast tables of rich and poor alike, (To Be Continued Tomorrow.) for the sinking of the Dutch passenger steamer Tubantia. -~ Baby Has Narrow Escape from Fire Donald Walker, 7-month-old son of F. A. Walker, 1053 Park avenue, had a nar- Tow escape from injury and possibly death when the Walker home caught on fire. Draperies in the house caught fire from a gas stove while the baby was lying in his orlh in an upstairs bedroom. Mr. Walker dfscovered the blaze barely In time to rescue the child. The house was damaged to the extent of $500 be- fore the fire department extinguished the blaze. A spark from the chimney started a blaze on the roof of the home of J.

If hard pressed Villa might, officials abundon his men, don the garb of & peon and flee so far into the south |that it would be exceedingly difficult if | not impossivle to apprehend him. To meet this situation General Persh- ing, It was learned tonight, has author- ity to employ scouts who have lived | their lives in the mountainous district. These men know these hiding places and the rotreats in which the bandits are sure to take refuge if hard pressed. | Upon them as a final resort will fall the task of trailing Villa to earth. Elahprate scouting plans are understood to have been completed. To Avoid Towns, The War department, it became known tonight, has at the request of the State department, sent explicit instructions to the forces in Mexfo not to occupy Mexi- can towns. Such occupation, it is said, might have the result of stirring up re séntment among the Mexicans. However, General Pershing's ordesr will not prevent him from searching a town should he have reason to believe that Villa or any of his followers were secreted there. Neither is he prevented from passing through towns in an emergency, although officials feel sure that such action would be taken only where it was necessary. Upon no condition, though, will American troops enter a town and set up headquar- ters there. i Acting Secretary Polk of the State de- partment today sent to Elizo Arredondo, ambassador-designate of the de facto government, & reply to a note delivered by the latter during a conference at the State department yesterday. Stats de- partment and embassy officlals declined to divulge even the nature of the con- tents of the communication, Kxpect Reply to Request. A reply to the request upon the Car- ranza government for permission to ship supplies to the American troops by rall from El Paso is expected some tlm7 to- morrow. o Also advices to the State department today were sald to show that conditions in various sectiona of Mexico under con- trol of the de facto lfl\'.l'llnlll! were im- proving. Only - one dispatch was l|ven out for publication by the War department. This was from Genéral Funston and it con- veyed the information that two troops of the First cavalry, stationed at Calexico, on the California-Mexico boundary, were to remain at their station to protect the Imperial valley.
