SERVANT

GIRL

BY EDGAR ILIFF. This it a mingling of mental images, day-dreams and reveries. The basis Is truth. "Qretchen" is not the real name of the German emigrant orphan girl who so profoundly impressed the writer's mind from its earliest consciousness. Gretchen used to take me in her lap and tell me about her voyage in an emigrant sailing ship; how they-sailed for weeks and weeks through a sad and weary imigratlon from the fatherland to America; touching was her story of her mother's death on board the ship and her burial at sea. The rough captain had attempted a practical Joke upon , the poor ignorant shepherdess of a wandering flock and she died from sheer fright. With broken voice and more broken English Gretchen would go over the whole story and then hug me to her as if I had been saved from a ship-wreck. Somehow she had the power to go right into a child's heart and touch tender chorda, if these were any. I say -If there were any, for some children seem never to have even a germ of tenderness, like the hard-hearted, degenerate sons of Marcus Aurelius and the great Pericles. But Gretchen had the true touch. It does not come from education. It is Inborn, and was as we see it manifested in some obscure and lowly persons we needn't wonder that sometimes little children run to the servants when the parents are degenerate, the mother having "aims" above maternity and the father fishing for a "career" that destroys all the 'sweet nothings of life. And as I sit in summer twilight and look across the . big meadow at the dark woods

WILSOf WELL GUARDED BY SECRET SERVICE U WATCHING YOUR HANDS

The crowd at the Pennsylvania station last evening was given a glimpse of the extreme care exercised by secret service agents to safeguard the life of President Wilson when he is on a tour. Persons saw only the more apparent details of this watchfulness, the finer points, of course, were too closely cloaked by the detective's guile to make them obvious to onlookers. That the extensive precautions mapped out before the president left Washington on his swing through the middle west, were not abated one whit, was apparent even to the casual observer.

Agents Mix With Crowd Secret service men were on the platform while the president exchanged greetings with the crowd every nna saw that. Whether the man who Jostled you, as he pushed his way tnrougn tne crowa was a aeiecuve, whether thn man who asked you if you knew the president, was a secret service man--that no one Knows. When the train pulled into the station, a man in civilian clothes stood on the steps of each car. Perhaps he was a railroad employe, perhaps he was a secret service agent. On either side of the rear platform were secret service men. They kept their eyes on the crowd. On the platform beside the president stood men in civilian clothing also United States agents. The door leading into the car was lert wide open so long as the president stood on the platform. A suspicious disturbance in the crowd, and secret service men would have rushed the president through .the door to Did you notice that the well dressed men on the platform did not look you in the eye. They kept their eyes glued on - the pockets into which you had rammed your hand3 to keep them warm. Had you Jerked out a hand holding a bulky object, chances are there would have been a quick, decisive lunge of a secret service man your way to thwart your design if the object hud been a revolver. When the train pulled out, secret service men did not board the rear car at once. They ran after the train until it was well under way. They wanted to be sure no crank would commit a crime In the confusion. That thrn were at least twenty-five agents posted in the crowd, is sate to assume. Where they stood, no one knows, but they were there. In addition special precautions had been tuken by the police department to waich the crowd. SUNDAY SERVICES NEW PAKIS.

over there, nd hear the soft twitter of bird cuddling in their nests, I feel tears on my cheeks, and I dream that, "Then the forms of the departed Enter at the open door; The beloved, the true-hearted. Come to visit me once more." I owe the development of this feeling to Gretchen, for she told me so many sweet and tender stories of Germany when" I wasn't Joo big to lie in her lap and fall asleep over the story of her strange little brother Fritchen who died across the sea u or the sad tale of the pale little sister Lisa who Just faded away, white as a' lily, her fragrance dissolving like a dying flower; or stories of fairies, wicked wolves, talking trees, the whispering winds in the big chimney, the strange cow and the lost sheep in tlje hills. Sometimes when the snow birds hopped upon our kitchen window she would suddenly take her hands from the dough and clasp me to her breast and tell me all about straw-thatched roofs, bird-houses, the grain left outside for the hungry feathered tribe, and the wonderful and strange games and rhymes of the little children in Deutchland, ueber Land und Meer. She knew nothing of Goethe or Schiller or "of that great Teutonic race that has nourished the hearth-altar and wives' counsels for ages. She was no scholar, but she had a great soul and she knew how to link it to another soul and touch it with the divine fire of sympathy a law of fife

SEVEN INJURED Continued From Page One Third street, left arm cut, wrist bruised and wrenched. Mrs. Louise Schroeder, South .Ninth and E streets, severe nervous shock. Mrs. Anna Vossmeier, 91 Liberty avenue, severe nervous shock, and internal injuries not yet determined. Mrs. Schroeder and Mrs. Vossmeier remained in the carriage until it was wrecked. The other three women jumped shortly after the horses started to run away. Driver Is Bruised. Mrs. Vossmeier ai.d Mrs. Schroeder were injured when the carriage struck the pole on North D street. Walter Bass, driver of the carriage, was slightly bruised when the runaway started. Bass had stopped the horses in front of the Vossmeier residence so Mrs. Vossmeier could alight. As he was opening the carriage door the horses took fright at some object and bolted. Bass dropped the reins and sprang to seize one of the animal's bridle. He was thrown down in so doing. An at MHntr feature of the spectacu lar runaway was the effort of Fire Chief Miller to head off the frightened animals in his automobile runabout.

as real as the two carbons producing light by contact. She waa not beautiful or fair or handsome, but sometimes her good soul shone on her plain face with such divine radiance that I thought' her Inspired. Sometimes her tales were wierd and frightful and . I shuddered with fear. They were about the man who killed an Infant to get its fat and was hung in chains till the sun and wind shrunk his veins; or about the old witch who sucked screech-owl eggs, drank the blood of frogs, and charmed toads from under the wall; or the old hag who cried out, "I've killed the black cat and here's its brains," or "I've been gathering wolves' hairs, and mad-dogs foam , and snakes . ears ! " Ugh! But when I felt that the world fead not used me well, I ran to the sanctuary of her skirts and never failed to find a ready apron to wipe away my tears or dab my eyes full of flour or suds. She understood and believed in me, and that is education. And when I hear learned persons talking so profoundly about education I think of her plain, honest' face and am fully persuaded that the good God sends His teachers In disguise. They come in lowly habit; they receive no titles or salary; they, seek no higher call; they do their work in humble spirit; they leave their impress; they fold their hands and die; they are forgotten; their graves lie amid briars and weeds unmarked.. Generations of them have endured hard toil; sometimes unnurtured children in . loneliness and sorrow - that have no language; fainted under burdens grievous

hands. That the fire followed an explosion is practically certain. Colonel George Brad burg, a members of paliament from Manitoba; Medrl G. Martin, the mayor of Montreal, and Constable Helmar, all of whom were standing near the door of the reading room, declare that there was a loud detonation a moment before Bmoke and flames began pouring through the reading room doors. Flames Spread Rapidly. That the flames spread so rapidly and ate their way so thoroughly was a big surprise to Canadian officials, for the building was constructed of stone and was made as nearly fire-proof as possible. The treat number of papers, books, desks and chairs in the reading room made ready fuel for the blaze at the outburst, and it quickly spread Into the commons chambers. By 1:30 the great, imposing tower had been undermined and it fell with a furious crash. Flames and sparks leaped hlg into the air, lighting up the city for miles. The senate, by this time, was a seething caldron, and the fire was eating its way along the corridors and snapping at the partitions in tne library. Speaker's Wife Escapes. Mme. Sevinsry wife of the speaker, is under the doctor's care as a result of the harrowing experience tnrougn which she passed.. She and a party of guests were in the speaker's suite when the fire broke out. ine crusn oi struggling fugitives and the smone which rolled through the corridors in choking "billows, made it impossible for them to escape except through the windows. Firemen below seeing frightened faces at the windows above them, kept shouting, "Don't Jump until the fire nets are rigged up!" As quickly as possible the nets were spread and the word was given to leap into them. Mme. Sevigny picked up one of her children and dropped 'it from the window. It landed in the net unhurt. Then she dropped her second child, and it, too, was safe. Then Mme. Sevigny . followed, jumping feet first into the net. So great was the shock which she suffered .that she was on the verge of a collapse and could not arise. Fight Through Smoke. Another guest of Mme. Sevingy saved herself in the same wak. There were panicky scenes in the corridors of both the commons chamber and senate. Excited members fought and struggled toward the exits amid the clouds of smoke which grew denser and denser. The fumes rolled from the doors and windows hindering the Are fighters on the outside. The fire afforded the most exciting spectacle that Ottawa has seen for generations. WTien the fire had gained headway and the flames rolled upward, casting a lurid glow over the snow covered city, the whole populace surged toward the scene of the conflagration, and it was all the police and soldiers could do to hold the excited men and women at bay so that the firemen could have free play. For a time It was feared that the flames would spread to other government buildings and squads of firemen were held in readiness to attack any fire which might break out elsewhere. The expedient of bringing dynamite to the scene was even considered. Parliament building was in the center of a group of government buildings and was the most imposing structure j in Canada. Its cornerstone was laid by the then Prince of Wales, who afterward became King Edward VII. The building stood upon a rocky bluff overlooking the Ottawa river, and the dominating position of the conflagration gave it an imposing grandeur. The Parliament building EXPLAINS CONFERENCE. The latest edition of the American Friend distributed to subscribers to day, contains a comprehensive article on "Foreign Missions Conference at Garden City, L. I.," by Ross A. Hadley. The letter Is descriptive and ex planatory of the missions conference. MAGAZINE ENLARGED.

memories of brave men who went to be borne;, passionately wept over sad and cruel heartaches of which the world never knew but, Just the same, they were wiser than the children of light of this day and generation. I suppose that the gates of Castle Garden might sometimes shut in the face of such emigrant creatures and swing inwardly on greased hinges to titled foreigners whose whole assets are gilded vices. But poor and discarded as they may be they carry under their breasts that which is greater -than pearls they profoundly believe! And I say tonight that such as these, coming from lands where life was hard and cruel, have done more for this nation In their plain way, and in their patient and unshakable faith, than all the dukes and lords ' that ever came here to bewilder us with their extremely hyphenated titles and shriveled, shrunken souls. As she quietly comes before me I see her, saintly face and white hair. I have been blessed with the memory of some beautiful old women. "There was something in their quiet grace that Bpoke the calm of Sabbath afternoon; a knowledge in their deep, unfaltering eyes that far outstretch all philosophy." There were domestic heroines of the American revolution who lingered In beauty long after like a summer's twilight. The aftermath of our late civil war is the same. These noble women, beautiful in declining years, bear the impress of deeds nobly done, hearts torn in holy sacrifice, carrying in their souls the

The architecture was of the Gcethic style and the building afforded one of the most elaborate specimens of thfs order of architecture on the the north American continent. The parliament building was constructed of cream colored sandstone, to which time had lent a richer hue. The arches over the doors and windows were of red sandstone from Potsdam, and the dressings were of Ohio freestone. ST. PAUL'S RECTOR ' ' RETURNS TO PULPIT After an absence of little more than two weeks Rev. J. S. Lightbourn, pastor of St. Paul's Episcopal church has returned. He announces that the services for Sunday will be: Holy communion, 7:30 o'clock. Holy communion and sermon, 10:30 o'clock. Evening prayer and sermon 5 o'clock. Important announcements of the preaching mission which is to be held here soon under the direction of the Rev. F. J.

I. & E. traction company case to Fayette county despite , the protest raised by Attorney Shlveley, representing the plaintiff. The new trial was granted to the defendant after a jury trial last fall had rendered a ver dict awarding the plaintiff $2,250 dam ages for personal injuries. Exceptions were taken to their ruling by the de fense. Judge Fox said that he had been sending so many cases to Henry and Randolph circuit courts that he would send this case to Fayette. THOUGHT SON DEAD. GOSHEN, Ind., Feb. 4. Mrs. Rosella Kellog thought her son Clarence Miller, had been dead for twenty years. Clarence Miller thought the same of his mother. Mere sentiment, a longing to see the old town again, brought Miller back and he met his mother. It was reported Miller was frozen to death in a Montana blizzard years ago. He wrote home frequently but received no replies and later someone told him his mother was dead. AWAIT TYPHOID SERUM. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Feb. 4 Twenty-three young men attached to the navy recruiting station here are awaiting with dread a package from Washington with prophylactic treatment to be used for typhoid precention.

. The light outBlde has faded away now and I look at the light within. How beautiful is light! Let us welcome light from every source. "More light," whispered Goethe and passed under the shadow of death. The morning light, when "the lark at heaven's gate sings," Is Just as sweet whether it streaks the rag carpet through the kitchen window or plays upon the rude cabin floor. It is light whether it mellows its beauty through the cathedral stained-glass window or finds its way between the chinks of the log hut or steals into the cell of the prisoner of hope. How often has it shone through crevices and cracks, through the poor and lowly. "Someone knocked," said Gretchen. coming . into the room. She went to the door and returned with pain on her 1&C6 "I thought I heard Fritchen crying." she said. "Ah, Gretchen," I ventured, "the poor boy died long ago in Germany. "Yes, yes, and I heard Lisa, too,'! she moaned. "But she, too, is gone." She seemed bewildered and said, "Ich bin wohl nicht klug it's me it's nothing. Can I tell you the story of the first lamp father brought home to us and how Lisa thought it was God?" "Not now, please," I replied. I went to the open door. Did I hear music? No, it is the wind, mingled with the cry of the poor little owl in the pear tree. Do I hear the sound of laughing water in the brook? "Heard melodies are . sweet," said

CARPENTERS ORDER CLOSED-SHOP RULE ON LOCAL CONTRACTS The adoption of a new contract, effective April, 1916, will probably be made at the regular session of the Carpenters union next Tuesday night. This year's agreement with the contractors is modified in only two or three instances, the most Important ot which is the clause providing for a "closed shop." This clause rules that no member of the local shall work with non-union workmen after the contract becomes effective. In the new contract, too, wages of time and a half is demanded for putting on creosote shingles and siding. One rule is changed to read, "The working hours shall be arranged by the men working on the job and the contractors but not to exceed 9 hours for the first 5 days, Saturdays, 5 hours." Second reading and probable passage of the new contract is to be made at Tuesday's meeting. There are fiftyfive members in the local union. SQUAD OF DEBATERS DRILLS FOR MARION Preparation for the Marion-Rich mond high school debate which will be held in the auditorium of the high school here next Friday night, is be ing made by the Richmond team.

Those who were injured are unable to state whether they were struck by the hoist chain or whether they were knocked down by fellow workmen during the panic which ensued. Both of Acton's legs were crushed by his fall to the ground and he was also very badly cut. It is believed he sustained internal injuries. His legs were amputated upon his arrival at the hospital, where he was sent in an automobile ambulance. The hoist chain which broke, it was stated, was recently tested and declared to be in perfect condition. WOMEN! TRY IT! Save five dollars by dry cleaning 1 everything at horn with gasoline. It is very easy and inexpensive to dry clean and brighten all the ribbons, laces, yokes, neckties, silks, net work, satins, shirt waists, kid gloves and shoes, furs, children's clothes suits, caps, woolen garments, fancy vests, Swiss lawn, organdie and chiffon dresses, draperies, rugs. In 'fact, any and everything that would be ruined with soap and water. Get two ounces of solvite at any druggist and put it in two gallons of gasoline, where it immediately dissolves. Then immerse the goods to be cleaned; rub a little and out they come looking bright and fresh as new. You will find nothUg fades, shrinks or wrinkles, requiring no pressing. These iew monments' work saves any household five to ten dollars. Try it and you will find dr- cleaning Just as easy as laundering. Your grocer or any garage will supply the gasoline and the drug store will furnish the solvite, which is simply a gasoline soap. Then a wash boiler or large dishpan completes your home dry cleaning outfit.

Captain New shook hands with scores of men introduced to him by A. C. Lindemuth, manager of his campaign in . Wayne county, by Linus Meredith, the vigorous advocate of the "Jim" Watson candidacy, and by mutual friends. To all he expressed his pleasure in meeting Richmond, voters and his regret that longer time was not permitted him in this city. He explained that he must "cover" ninety-two counties of Indiana in seventy days and comparatively little time could be spared in each community if he hoped to reach all sections. Captain New used ten minutes in an earnest talk with C. R. Richardson and Isaac N. Winburn, the former president of the new organisation of the colored G. O. P. and the latter Republican candidate for the nomination of county recorder. To them he pointed out his record of two terms in the Indiana legislature, his stand upon certain principles directed to the benefit of their race and his part in the Civil war.
