ATTENDANCE IS GREATER THAN FIRST DAY 191

Total Enrollment Monday, 3,755 Spanish is Popular Study. The war has not cut school attendance.

Monday s total enrollment in the

city was 3,755 compared with 3,749

of last year. Garfield's enrollment

this year was 548 and last year 540; and high school was 703 this year and 710 last. These figures are the first day's enrollment and it Is very probable that more will have enrolled by Tuesday evening. Tuesday morning the first chapel of the year was held at high school. Principal Bentley gave a short talk in which he outliped the work for the year and welcomed the new pupils. E. F. Murphy,' supervisor of the vocational agricultural department, will have classes at Garfield school this year. His main classes will be in the high school, however. Two Spanish Classes Enrollment in Spanish went far beyond expectations. Miss Anna Bradbury will have two classes in Spanish instead of one as previously announced. Yesterday afternoon 42 students had enrolled in the classes with many more coming in. There is no notable decrease in the German classes this year, according to Miss Elma Nolte, head of the German department. There are thirteen classes in German, with a good enrollment in each. Routine work was started in the grade schools Tuesday. With boeks and supplies on hand, the regular work could be carried on without any hitches. School was dismissed early Monday so that pupils could purchase their supplies.

The high officers are headed by that strict disciplinarian and natural leader of men, Maj. Gen. W. H. Sage, who is showing remarkable energy and foresight in the final preparations for the coming of the Guardsmen from three states. Maj. Gen. Sage is a New York man and was graduated from West Point. He was three times sent to the Philippines, and is a seasoned veteran. lie was with the regulars on the Mexican border. Brig. Gens. Roger D. Williams, of Kentucky; E. M. Lewis, of Indiana, and 11. H.

"Write thou a letter. Since she loves thee, state thine own case to her. Tell her that I hold thee hostage, and that Khinjan is mine already for a little fighting. In a month she can not pick out my men from among her own. Her position is undermined. Tell her that. Tell her that if she obeys she shall have India and be queen. If she disobeys, she shall die in the Cavern of Earth's Drink!" "She is a proud woman, mullah," answered King. "Threats to such as ehe ?" The mullah mumbled and strode back and forth three times between King's bed and the fire, with his fists knotted together behind him and his head bent, as Napoleon used to walk. When he stood beside the bed again at last it was with his mind made up, as his clenched fist3 and his eyes indicated. "Make thine own terms with her!" he growled. "Write the letter and send it! I hold thee; she holds Khinjan ar.d the ammunition. I am between her and India. So be it. She shall starve in there! She shall lie

in there until the war is over and take what terms are offered her in the

end! Write thine own letter! State the case, and bid her answer!" "Very well," said King. He began to see now definitely how India was to be saved. It was none of his business to plan yet, but to help others' plans destroy themselves and to sow such seed in the broken ground as might bear fruit in time. The mullah left him, to squat and gaze into the fire, and mutter, and King lay still. After a while the mullah went and carried a great water bowl nearar to the fire and, as King had done, stripped himself. Then he heaped great fagots on the fire, wasteful fagots, each of which had cost some woman hours of mountain climbing. And in the glow of the leaping flame he scrubbed himself from head to foot with King's Ivory soap. Finally, with a feat of strength that nearly forced an exclamation out of King, he lifted the great water bowl in both hands and emptied the whole contents over himself. Then he resumed his smelly garments without troubling to dry his body, and got out a Quran from a corner and began to read it in a nasal singsong that would have kept dead men awake. King lay and

watched and listened. Reading scripture only seemed to fire the mullah's veins. For him perhaps sleep was either out of reach or despicable. He seemed in a mood to despise anything but conquest and strode back and forth up and down the cave like a caged bear, muttering to himself. After a time he went to the mouth of the cave, to stand and stare out at the camp where the thousand fires were dying fitfully and wood smoke purged the air. The stars looked down on him, and he seemed to try to read them, standing with fists knotted together at his back. And as he stood so, six other mullahs came to him and began to argue with hi min low tones, he browbeating them all with furious words hissed between half-closed teeth. They were whispering still when King fell asleep. It was courage, not carelessness, that let him sleep courage and a great hope born of the mullah's perplexity. He dreamed that he was writing, writing, writing, while the torturers made a hot fire ready in the Cavern of Earth's Drink and whetted knives on the bridge end while the organ played "The Marseillaise. He dreamed Yasmini came to him and whispered the solution to it all. but what she whispered he could not catch, al

though, she whispered the same words again and again and seemed to be angry with him for not listening. And when he awoke at last he had fragments of his blanket in either hand, and the sun was already shining into the jaws of the cave. The camp was alive and reeked of cooking food. But the mullah was gone, and so was all the money the women hod brought, together with his medicines and things from Khinjan. To be continued

One Hundred and Forth-ninth field artillery, a star unit of the division, began intensive training this morning under a schedule prepared by Maj. Gen. Mann. The routine today consisted principally of foot drills for each battery and schools for officers and wireless and telephone men. This afternoon Reilly's regiment gave Camp Mills a thrill when the Illinois troops made their first practice hike, a five mile jaunt. At 1:15 p m. the batteries, in regimental formation, were lined up in their battery streets, facing officers' row at camp entrance. Batteries Fall In. Down the row swung Bandmaster Sylvester and his musicians, playing a military march. Maj. Redden, commanding the First battalion, led the

LONDON, Sept. 11. The following statement from an authoritative source was made to The Associated Press today with reference to the revelations concerning Sweden: "There Is no need for any action regarding the Swedish exposures, nor is any action, joint or otherwise contemplated. The facts as narrated speak for themselves. This is not a case of quarrel on the part of the allies with Swedish people, but of Individual action by individual officials, which, it is confidently believed, will be strongly resented by the Swedish people. There can be no doubt that Sweden will take the earliest opportunity to explain her condition and this, it is hoped, will clear the air and even lead to a better understanding. "It is well known that there is a small military group in Sweden which might possibly approve of such behavior as has now come to light, but it is confidently expected that the bulk of the Sweden people will share the views of tbe,'orld at large regarding the barbarious intrigues. Telegrams show that the exposures have caused great excitement and in the view of leading politicians serious action hy the Agentine government will become necessary." See Socialist Victory In Swedish circles in London the view is expressed that the revelations come just in time to insure a big victory for the liberal socialist in the Swedish elections, which are now under way and which, will continue until Sept. 21. This should be followed by the fall of the present conservative government as soon as parliament reassambles in January nd its replacement by a cabinet headed by Hjalmar Brsnting, the socialist leader. Although under Swedish law the government does not necessarily fall except on an adverse vote by both houses and the upper house will continue conservative owing to the peculiar methods of its elections there has been a tacit agreement between the parties to abide by the result of the present election and failure on the part of the conservatives to comply with this agreement, would in the belief of the Swedes here result in a revolution. -May Be Forced to Quit It is believed in some quarters that when Sweden learns its government has acted as a German agent, the cabinet will be forced to resign without awaiting the result of the elections and give way to a ministry which will offer its apologies and assurance that Sweden hereafter will respect all the rules of neutrality. It has been supposed, because of the silence at Stockholm, that possibly the news cf the disclosures was suppressed there, but tonight's dispatches

Count Wrangel, and the American ambassador, Walter H.

Lift off Corns

Doesn't hurt a bit to lift a corn or callus off with fingers.

For a few cents you can get a small bottle of the magic drug freezone recently discovered by a Cincinnati man. Just ask at any drug store for a small bottle of freezone. Apply a few drops upon a tender, aching corn and instantly, yes, immediately, all soreness disappears and shortly you will find the corn or callus so loose that 3"ou lift it out, root and all, with the fingers. Just think! Not one bit of pain before applying freezone or afterwards.. It doesn't even irritate the surrounding skin. Hard corns, soft corns or corns between the toes, also hardened calluses on bottom of feet, just seem' to shrivel up and fall off without hurting a particle. It is almost magical. Ladies! keep a tiny bot

tle on your dresser and never let a corn or callus ache twice.

If you have catarrh, catarrhal deafness or head noises caused by catarrh, or if phlegm drops in your throat and has caused catarrh of the stomach or

ASK YOUR FRIEND There is hardly a neighborhood in any city, town or hamlet in the United States where women cannot be found who have derived benefit from Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. For more than forty years this botanic remedy has been overcoming some of the worst cases of female ills. As one woman has found help she has told another, who has used it with the same result; so the use of this great medicine has spread from shore to shore by the recommendation of those who have found it good. Therefore, ask your neighbor, let her tell you from experience the benefit which ailing women derive from the use of this famous medicine. Adv.
