AMERICAN TRAINING CAMP IN
FRANCE. Julr 24. The chaplains
with the American troops began their
Sabbath duties, early Sunday, ana y 7 o'clock most of them were In automobiles which carried them lrom one encampment to another. They spoke
briefly to the men. preaching no ser
nan in the customary sense of the
word, but talking to and with the
soldiers. The substance of their talks was an admonition to the men to remember they are engaged in a man's
jtame. not a child s, and to act ac
cordingly. 1 Chaplains Praise Men
More than one chaplain paid high
compliments to the soldiers for their
manly bearing and urged conununace
of the attitude which has permuted the men to settle down In the community without the slightest friction
tud without any tr the eviis wnicn
sometimes arise in such circumstances.
The services today," the first since
tlie trooDs arrived, were undenomina
tional in the main. Soldiers of the
Catholic faith not only attended the
chaDlalns' talks, but in . many in
stances went to the small Catholic
churches that dot this section of
France.
It was a day of rest for the men,
who were relieved of drill and , long
hikes. Thousands took the opportun
itv to write home, 1 and the officers
who act as censors had anything but
relaxation.
The first real baseball game in the camp was played this afternoon, thanks largely to the efforts of the Young Men's Christian Association,
which has organized a regular company league of six teams and plans to extend its work considerably as soon as the equipment arrives. The first troops had hardly reached here when the Y. M. C. A. representatives were on hand, and their "hut" was one of the first buildings in operation. Y. M. C. A. Doing Good Work. Despite the small amount. of material It has to work with, the organization has already established a small circulating library, which is in great demand, and Is supplying the men with most of the paper on which they write home. It has been able to open a small canteen, with English tobacco in lieu of American cigarettes, which have not yet arrived in sufficient abundance. The camp Y. M. C. A. is in touch with headquarters in Paris,- from which it expects soon to draw materials for an extensive canteen and a large library of books and magazines. Eventually there will be a hut at each encampment, where at stated periods the men may see moving pictures. The Y. M. C. A. men already here and those who will come as fast as the huts are erected are experienced in association work. Many have been with the armies in the field. Their efforts are greatly appreciated by the troops, who utilize the advantages of , the hut to the full. The General in command of the camp refused to relax on Sunday from his strenuous daily program and went off for another inspection trip. A large number of American officers
left today for French and British military schools for a long course of training in modern warfare. When they
have finished, other officers will take their places, and later non-commission
ed officers will have the same opportunity. The . main body of newspaper cor
respondents is expected to arrive to
morrow and join the representatives
of the press associations already installed here. Their first duty will be
to undergo vaccination for typhoid
When all these correspondents, of
whom there are twelve, have recovered, they will be quartered In a chateau near headquarters.

Darya Khan did not go so fast As he forced his way forward a man passed him up the wooden box that King had used to stand on; he seized it in both hands with a grin and a Jest and went to stand behind King and Ismail, in line with the lashless mullah, facing YasmlnL Yasmini smiled at them all as if they were actors in her comedy, and she well pleased with them. ' "Look ye!" howled the mullah. "Look ye and look well, for this is to be one of us!" King felt ten thousand eyes burn holes in his back, but the one pair of eyes that mocked him from the bridge
was more disconcerting.
"Turn, Kurram Khan! Turn that all may see!" Feeling like a man on a spit, he revolved slowly. ' By the time he had turned once completely around, besides knowing positively that one of the two bracelets on her right arm was the one he had worn, or else its
extra copy, he knew that he was not meant to die yet; for his eyes could
work much more swiftly than the
horn-rimmed spectacles made believe.
He decided that Yasmini meant he should be frightened, but not much
hurt Just yet
So he ceased altogether to feel frightened and took care to look more
scared than ever. .
"Who paid the price of thy admis
sion?" the mullah howled, and King
cleared his throat, for he was not quite sure yet what that might mean.
"Speak, Kurram Khan!" Yasmini
purred, smiling her loveliest - "Tell
them whom you slew."
King turned and faced the crowd,
raising himself on the balls of his
feet to shout, like a man facing thou
sands of troops on parade. He nearly
gave himself away, for habit had him unawares. A native hakim, given the
stoutest lungs in all India, , would not
have shouted in that way.
"Cappitln Attleystan King!" he
roared. And he nearly Jumped out of
his 8 kin when his own voice came rattling back at him from the roof overhead.
Yasmini chuckled as a little rill will
sometimes chuckle among ferns. It
was devilish. ; It seemed to say there were traps not far ahead.
"Where was he slain?" asked the
mullah.
"In the Khyber Pass,", said King. "In the Khyber Pass!" the roof
whispered hoarsely, as if aghast at such cold-bloodedness.
"Now give proof!" said the mullah. Words at the gate proof in the cav
ern! Without good proof, there is only one way out of here!"
"Proof!" the crowd thundered. "The
proof!"
"Proof! Proof! Proof!" the roof
echoed.
There was no need for Darya Khan
to whisper. King's hands were behind him, and he had seen what he had seen and guessed what he had guessed while he was turning to let the crowd look at him. His fingers
closed on human hair.
"Nay, it is short!" hissed Darya
Khan. "Take the two ears, or hold it by the Jawbone!, Hold it high in both hands!"
King obeyed, without looking at the
thing, and Ismail, turning to face the crowd, rose on tiptoe and filled his lungs for the effore of his life. .
"The head of Cappitln Attleystan
King infidel kaffir British arrflcer! he howled. "Good!" the crowd bellowed. "Good. Throw it." The crowd's roar - and the roofs echoes combined in pandemonium. "Throw it to them, Kurram Khan!" Yasmini purred from the bridge end, speaking as softly and as sweetly as if she coaxed a child. Yet her voice carried. He lowered the head, but instead of looking at It he looked up at her. He thought she, was enjoying herself and his predicament as he had never seen any one enjoy anything. "Throw it to them, Kurram Khan!" she purred. "It is the custom!" - . ,
"Throw it Throw it!" the crowd thundered.1 He turned the ghastly thing until it lay face-upward in his hands, and so at last he saw it He caught his breath, and only the horn-rimmed spectacles, that he had cursed twice that night, saved him from self-betrayal. The cavern seemed to sway, tut he recovered, and his wits worked swiftly. If Yasmini detected his nervousness she gave no sign. "Throw it! Throw it! Throw it!" The crowd was growing impatient Many men were standing, waving their
arms to draw attention to themselves, and he wondered what the ultimate end of the bead would be, if he obeyed and threw it to them. Watching Yasmini's eyes, he knew it had not entered her head that he might disobey. He looked past her toward the river. There were no guards ear enough to prevent what he intended; but he had to bear in mind that the guards had rifles, and if he acted too suddenly one of them might shoot at him unbidden. They were wondrous free with their cartridges, those guards, in a land where ammunition is worth its weight In silver coin. Holding the head before him with both hands, he began to walk toward the river, edging all the while a little toward the crowd as if meaning to get nearer before he threw. He was much more than half-way to the river's edge before Yasmini or anybody else divined his intention. The mullah grew suspicious first and yelled. Then King hurried, for he did not believe Yasmini would need many seconds in which to regain command of any situation. But she saw fit to stand still and watch. To be continued
J. EDGAR IUFF
An Appreciation.
By GEO. W. B. CONRAD When Paul Lawrence Dunbar, the famous colored poet, came to Richmond many years ago, comparatively unknown, except as an elevator boy in one of Dayton's mercantile buildings, he became acquainted with J. Edgar Iliff. Mr. Iliff had learned something of Dunbar's talents, and being anxious, as he always was, to pay tribute to real worth, entertained Dunbar at his home. Iliff was a man of strong convictions and differences of race and color counted for nothing with hint when it came to a question of recognizing true character and worth. His religion was
the great principle which the world must eventually recognize and pratice, L e., "the Fatherhood of God and Brotherhood of man." His soul was too great to be confined to one race; It was Humanity with him, its betterment, uplift and ultimate redemption. In every human being he recognized the divine spark and was always willing and ready to pay tribute to those who deserved it He recognized the beautiful, the good, character, real worth, in all, no matter in what form nature had clothed them. Such a great soul as his is what beautifies the world, and serves to
make it worth the living. In his contemplation of a great life he could find as much companionship in a great oak tree as in a human being, for of both he saw the handiwork cf God. He was equally appreciative of the sweet song of the bird, towering oak and fragrant flower. Our Lord was a great lover and observer of nature, for he realized that
those who were to emulate his example and follow in his footsteps were few, when he said "Behold the fields are white unto harvest but the laborers are few." Mr. Iliff was not a minister
DEPORTATION OF I.W.W. EXPLAINED
PHOENIX, Ariz.. July 24. The methods used in deporting members of the Industrial Workers of the World from Bisbee, on July 12, were explained to Governor Campbell last' night by a committee of six citizens representing the citizens' protective leagues of Bisbee and Douglas. The visitors told the -governor that great care had been used in order that none should be sent unjustly from the district and that members of the Industrial Workers of the World would not again be admitted to the Warren Mining district Governor Campbell told the committee that deporting I. W. W. was not the proper way to handle the situation. He said he would expect them to abide by the law in the future. The governor said that in spite of what had been told by the committee, he was confident some innocent persons had been deported. DOUGLAS, Ariz, July 24. Five Slavonians, who said they had been restaurant workers at Lowell, a suburb of Bisbe and had been deported with the Industrial Workers of the World,
to Columbus, N. M., were taken from
a west bound train by deputy sheriffs
last night and placed in the city Jail.
The officers who made the arrests said they acted under order from the
sheriff s office.
