A Tale of By WALTER

Old Ell Strsaakr waa tired and worn out with bia long day's tramping. Aa ha turned Into the bystreet of the Ghetto his atepe (altered and a heavy algh came through- hie heavy patriarchal beard. Still there Is no relief from the merciless hand of the tyrant," he muttered,' as he passed along the narrow, deserted thoroughfares. "Are my people to be forever the serfs and footstools of these God-forsaken des pots? Are they never to be released?" He shook his head mournfully, and a tear suited to his falling eye. "It Is Impossible to believe that God has abandoned them," he said. "Some day end yet " Presently he paused at the door of one of the houses in a dark street close by. Raising his hand to a long. narrow piece of metal nailed to the doorpost he touched it reverently, then raised bis lingers slowly, to his lips. With that . he passed through the doorway. A venerable God-fearing Hebrew, Ell Strassky was of the best known and most respected dwellers in that wide and densely populated district of East London which is known as the Ghetto. He was an alien, driven from the land of his birth through the bitterest tyranny and oppression, exiled by the might of his so-called masters, he had sought freedom and refuge in the land of liberty, the land to which so many of his forebears had been driven. He bad not come as a poor man, for he had been thrifty and of fairly high position in the country he renounced. With him he had brought his wife and daughters, the latter two handsome girls with wonderful dark eyes and raven black tresses. They had settled among their compatriots in the "Jewlah City of the East" had lived and thrived there, and become respected for their generous assistance to new arrivals from the land of oppression. Ell had only one wish now. His daughter Ruth had left behind in Poland the sole joy of her life one Gregorl Zarmoff, an overseer of her father's late property. ' Eli had not known of this attachment when he left for England, as Ruth had been afraid to approach him on the subject. Since he had learned the truth, the old Jew longed In his own way, to see them come together. There could be no objection to the attachment; on the contrary, Gregori was a tall, upright, honest young man, with every right to ask for his daughter's hand. . The young man's father, too, had saved old Eli from the wolves In the forest of Sukhona, and they were the atanchest friends. But Gregori had had to wait. In ordef to come to England he must have money, and only hard work could win It for him. . After many years of waiting Gregori was at last on his , way to Lon don to London that great city of the unoppreesed the free! What joy for Ruth there was in the prospect of reunion only lovers know. 8he had waited long and patiently, and now Gregori, her loved one, was leaving Poland with its cruel despotism, its tyrannical masters,' Its pitiless slaves, for England would be with her on the morrow, when the great ship sailed up the Thames and emptied Its human freight upon the docks. That evening Ell had bought his newspaper and learnt therefrom that another massacre among the Jews had taken place at 8ukhona. Homes had been plundered, houses rased, sick and aged men torn from their beds' and tortured, strong men forced to witness the ruin of their wives and daughters, and lighting all, great red flames caused by the hand of mad In cendiaries, dancing over the devilish work. Ell knew the district He knew Its ruler and his tyranny. He This Is My 52nd Birthday III REN NELL RODO. Sir Rennell Rodd, the British am bassador to Italy, was born Novem ber 9, 1858, end received his educa tion principally at Oxford university.

guessed shrewdly st the cause of the outrage This man Dimitri Markovltcb's fierce oppression had caused revolt among the Jewish peaaanta. The Poles, needing only the slightest incentive to an outburst, . had taken Immediate advantage of the opportun-1 lty and fallen on their neighbors like wolves on a flock of sheep. Red ruin was the reault and still the nations shut their eyes to the doings of these despots. Would the time never come? Ell Strassky joined his family with a blessing. How wonderful his daugh ters had made the place. Surely they must have spent hours In getting the little rooms to look their very best. Gregori would be there soon, and but why anticipate. On the table lay a cloth of snowy whiteness. A double portion of white bread, a little fish, a small decanter of raisin wine, with a couple of lighted candles in tall bronse candlesticks, were placed upon it the latter to signify the number of his children. Later they had eaten. Eli broke the silence with his story-of the nuuf sacre. "So many of our friends must be there," he said. "Gregori, too, but he thank God, he had left before this happened." Ruth, a fine handsome girl of twenty-five, shuddered slightly. "He will be here tomorrow," she aaid, as if this was news. "Oh father, you cannot tell how glad I am. Leah, Ell's other daughter, sighed. It was a little sigh, just audible, but nobody seemed to notice it Ell explained at length the details of the terrible calamity that had befallen his compatriots. They were as children to him, and the thought of the awful fate that had overtaken them almost drove him to madness. "It only we had the power," he said, "he would deliver his countrymen from the hand of the oppressors as Moses of old delivered his forebears from the tyranny of the Egyptians. The seven plagues ahould not satisfy his thirst for vengeance; justice should be dealt them, swift and sure." Then he paused. This was not his usual spirit The event had overwrought his high strung nerves. He would be patient, waiting for the hand of God. On the following day Eli and Ruth went down to the alien immigration offices in Great Tower street, the girl tripping for joy all the way. Everything now wss ready for her lover;' a feast had been prepared, their home had been made to look its best everything was ready to receive the immigrant as soon as the general inspection should be over. Ruth waited anxiously, her heart beating wildly all the time. They saw batches of fellow countrymen going away with their friends, watched happy reunions and noticed the light stetp with which each stranger , reached .the street Tet Gregori came not An hour passed, and still there was no sign. Then Ell proposed that they should make in quiries. A terrible shock awaited them. "Gregori Zarmoff had been deport ed," the officer said, "from failure to comply with the necessary demand." that was all. Two or. three months - later, Ell bought a newspaper and sat down to read the news. In a prominent post tion there he found a paragraph .to to this effect: Serious anti-Semitic riots have again broke out in the district of Suk bona. In Polish Russia. General Markovltch. the governor of the district. has been assassinated by a Jewish peasant named Gregori Zarmoff. who declared that the former had ill treat ed his mother. The Polish peasants slew Zarmoff without mercy before the eyes of his own parents.

LITTLE GOSSIP OH THE LOCAL ELECTION

As usual the election returns from the various precincts of this county were slow in coming In. At six o'clock this morning the little band of election officials and newspaper men were still waiting for returns from eight or nine precincts, three in this city, to be sent in to the court house. There la absolutely no excuse for such delays in the opinion of the officials. About 3 o'clock this morning the telephone rang at the court room in the court house and a member of the election board was informed that the election returns from the Economy precinct were enroute to Richmond. Enos Veal, the voice said, was bringing them in, but as he was walking he probably would not arrive at the court house until 9 or 10 o'clock. The vote cast yesterday was quite a large one, but not up to the record of two years sgo. Surprise was expressed at the small negro vote polled. The total vote cast for the socialist state ticket In Wayne township pre cincts was 381, a gain of not quite a hundred. However, the probable to tal socialist vote for the county will be in the neighborhood of 450 or 600, a substantial increase. : Socialistic election officials were on duty at every polling place in the city yesterday. "We would have polled a larger vote in the city If it had not been for the fact that many men voted the democratic ticket to defeat Barnard," a leader explained this morning. Early this morning a Palladium reporter talked with the Democratic congressional candidate, . Flnly Gray at Connersrille, overthe telephone

I will wait until I definitely learn what the result Is. Call me up -about 8 o'clock this morning," said Mr. Gray. ' Not an arrest was made in this city yesterday as a result of election troubles. The election was one of the most quiet and orderly on record. The usual rough house tactics of the election crowds last night was conspicuous by their absence. Wayne county stood by Senator Beveridge nobly yesterday, showing that its citizens were grateful to him for his excellent services in the United States senate. There was genuine regret when it was announced he had been renounced by the state. Election returns were thrown on a screen opposite the Palladium office until nearly midnight and were watched by a large crowd. Elections are greeted with joy by newspaper men. Such trifling events only mean about 36 hours of steady grind. . t - CANADA'S NAVY j Ottawa, Ont, Nov. 9.

College Men Find Rich Field on Panama Canal Wages Are High, Cost of Living Norman and Quarters Are 1 Furnished Free Fine Climatic Conditions.

(Special Cable from tha International News Service.! BY BLAINE BATTON. College men are doing great things down In the Canal Zone, and for the man who has just received his Mary's iamb hide, there is no richer field In which to get a good start than right down there where the "big ditch" Is being made each day Into a still bigi ber one. ' Too often the college graduate wno is fresh from under the Index finger of the "Prof overestimates his value to the man from whom he seeks employment; moqt generally, of course, from the financial standpoint The result Is that quire frequently we find some mighty disappointed young men launched out into the ocean of humanity when they find out that the diploma is of secondary, importance to the index finger of the businees owner. After making good It is a different proposition, for the college training as a foundation only, cannot be denied. The Canal Zone is filled with college men, many of whom are at the heads of departments. The result Is that there Is no prejudice against those often referred to with a curl of the lips' as "rah. rah, boys." There Is a square deal going on in Panama, and the United States government Is glad to get hold of men who are just out of college. It Is the young men wanted there, not the old ones worn out or business failures here. " An encouraging feature of wors in the Canal Zone la that wages in general are high, the cost of living normal, and quarters furnished free, which all in all. makes it possible for one to save a good portion ofhis salary. The manual labor Is all done by foreigners In the Zone, the Mongolians being excluded from those eligible. An American laborer may be a foreman but not one of the laborers. Most of the laborers are West Indies negroes. They too, sre quartered by the government In regard to the climatic conditions, there is a general mistaken Impression' prevalent throughout this coun try. Instead of - being seml-rurnace temperature in Panama, It is an even temperature throughout the year and never varies more than . 15 ' degrees, rarely getting hotter than 85 degrees, and practically always being tanned by an ocean breese and the trade winds. The summer months In the Central States are hotter than the same months on the Isthmus. As for the sanitary conditions, It Is safe to state that there is not a state in the Union which observes regulations in this respect as closely as they do in . the Canal Zone. The laws are rigid In the protection of the people from this source, and more than one halt of, the fines imposed each month are from this source, and more than one half of the fines imposed each month are the result of violation of the sanitary laws. It is just In this manner; however, that the United States has cleaned up what was the most unsanitary place in the world to

one of the most favorable. The success of digging the Canal in a large measure is due to the excellent sani- -tary conditlona that now prevail; it was for the lack of ' proper aanltary '

conditions that the French made such a miserable failure. The competition of the 1 canal in 1915 means distinctively an American aucceas: the idea that tha u United States is simply completing an unfinished job undertaken by the French government being erroneous. Of the 80,000.000 cubic yards excavated by the French, only 30.000.000 of these could be used by the government In - the construction of a lock canal. Thia sum represents leas than was excavated last year alone by the United -States. u -n.- . The recent trouble by elides into the Culebra cut will not hinder the canal from , being completed on the scheduled time, that Is, by 1916. Already San Francisco is planning to celebrate the occasion of the wedding of the two oceans with the most costly Internattonal exposition ever held. The European and Aalatie powers have all signified their intentions of being represented at this monster World's fair. The Astatic powers are especially In terested in the project which is to be called the Panama-Pacific Inter-nation: al Exposition. It is generally believed that the competition of the canal will mean the opening ue of much more commerce on the Pacific, and will help in throwing the doors of the Orient farther apart ? v The people on the west coast of the United States are enthusiastic con cerning the opening of the canal, and the auspicious exposition planned to celebrate the greatest engineering feat ever undertaken by any nation or corporation. Close to $20,000,000 alone has been raised in California to support the fair, and for the first time of expositions In the United States not a cent as an appropriation is to be asked of congress, the westerners feeling that the government has done enough in putting the millions into the "big ditch" without having to pay more toward celebrating its completion.

Lee and other leaders, were much In evidence here today for the annual reunion of the Arkansas division of the United Confederate veterans end also the general convention of the United Daughters of the Confederacy.The two gatherings have attracted to tittle' Rock an unusually large number of visitors. - .
