There are ibg affair in the history of the war just now. Ruifia is undergoing anoth.fr crisis, and Sweden liai reached a point where the. will have to play fair. Argentine n'ay docidr to-j-jin the allies and Um'I.. fjr.1 has a eiiance to prir'ent Arzntin.''s. s!! ing grain to neutr.ls that may lat'w reach Germany. H-! can r;fuie t aril coal to Argentine ard so Ar'ntina will then gsin coal by acceding to tne demands of the allies and refuse to send wheat to Europe, except to tbe allies. Keren.'ky seems to be able to deal with KomilofT, but all tbe people -if the world will be sorry for the fai1nre of Korniloff in the hour of emeffnry. It is pitiful to see a little mm fail in crisis, but to see a big man upon whom the world had pinned faith, fail down, ant! put his own claim befcii those of his country, ii hard blow to human credulity. In tho meantime. American soldiers by the hundred of thousands are getting ready for entry into the European buttle fieldi", and the comInfr winter, or the early spring, will ? aacli changes that it ia fair to predict that Germany will have to sue for pear. She want peaee now. on the baris cf present cufiditions, but wl.at must now be grarrtod will be J:iCl on the fcni i f pre-war conditions, and in a Mit'on a tjuarapty of future peace and a world disarmament.

Ridera," from Duck Creek country in the Oklahoma bad lands. Through loyalty to the "Long Riders" Jennings refused to clear himself of a charge of robbery which had been lodged against him by gome of Houston's friends, and this resulted in his being declared an outlaw. For a rime he engaged in a scries of train robberies and in October, 18!7, in company with his brother and some of the "Long Riders," he held up a Rock Island train near Chiciiha, Oklahoma and brought down a large posse on the band. On December 1, 1897, the robbers engaged in battle with the forces of law and oriler at the pike S ranch, cn Duck Creek, from which they mudc a miraculous escape in the face of a withering rifle fire from hundreds of deiiuties. They were finally betrayed and captured, badly wounded by Deputy Marshal "Bud" Ledbetter, a famous officer of those times, and A I was sentenced to prison for iife for robbing the United States mail, which it was afterwards proven he did not do. His sentence was cut short after three years and four months by a pardon from President McKinlev. through the good offices of Mark Hanna, who had become interested in his case. When Theodore Roosevelt came into office he gave Jennings back I his citizt tship. The ex-bandit went back to Okla-1 homa and started to regain his good ! lame nnd law practice. He w as elect- !
