LEGUIA SAYS URGENT NEED OF NEW WORLD IS FRATERNAL UNION

The Adventure of Charles Augustus Milverton By SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE Copyright, 1921, by Harper & Bros. Published by special arrangement with The McClure Newspaper Syndicate.

(By Associated Press)

LIMA, Sept. 29. A cordial rap

prochement between the civilized peoples of the southern half of the new world Is the urgent and immediate need of today, said President A. B. Leguia. speaking at the opening of the Simon Bolivar museum, one of the features of the centennial celebrations. The museum building, , the president recalled, was the same in

which Bolivar, liberator of the northern republics of South America from Spanish rule, drew up the invitation and bases for the congress of American republics and conceived, more than a century ago, the idea of a society of nations to serve as a "council In ereat ouarrels and a point of

constant in case of common dangers." "Such was Bolivar's thought. a thought which here took shape and I found a happy expression." continued , the president. "A century has passed and events have proved for us that the talented liberator was right and foresaw future storms. My government is therefore of the opinion that this occasion and this spot are fitting to once more proclaim, after the lapse of years, the need for a fraternal union vigorous and sincere between the peoples descended from the same generous trunk and their union, further, with all the other peoples of America." A new antichthonic league, (composed of people of one hemisphere) the president said, will unquestionably be the "opus which the future

conceals from us enshrouded in its I

impenetrable shadows. But that which today Is pressing, the urgent and immediate need, is a cordial rap prochement between the peoples of this hemisphere and that an effective deed of restitution shall extinguish on American soil all intentions of and attempts at conquest."

The place was locked, but Holme removed a circle of glass and turned the key from the inside. An instant afterwards he had closed the door behind us, and we had become felons in the eyes of the law. The thick, warm air of the conservatory and the rich, choking fragrance of txotio plants took us by the throat. He seized my hand in the darkness and led me swiftly past bank3 of shrubs which brushed asrainst our faces. Holmes had remark

we can get away as we came. If they come the other way, we can get through the door if our job is 'done, or hide behind these window curtains if it is not. Do you understand?"

I nodded, and stood by the door. My first feeling of fear bad passed away, and I thrilled now with a keener zest than I had ever enjoyed when we were the defenders of the law instead of its defiers. The high object of our mission, the consciousness that it was

in the dark. Still holding my unselfish and chivalrous, the villainous

hand in one of his, he opened a door,

and I was vaguely conscious that we Lad entered a large room in which a cigar had been smoked not long before. He felt his way among the furniture, opened another door, and closed it behind us. Putting out ray hand I felt several coats hanging from the wall, and I understood that I was in a passage. We passed along it, and

Holmes very gently opened a door upon the right-hand side. Something rushed out at us and my heart sprang into my mouth, but I could have laughed when I realized that it was the cat. A fire was burning in this new room, and again the air was heavy with

tobacco smoke. Holmes entered on tiptoe, waited for me to follow, and then very gently closed the door. We were

in Milverton's study, and a portiere at

the farther side showed the entrance

to his bedroom,

It was a good fire, and the room was

illuminated by it. Near the door I saw the gleam of an electric switch, but it was unnecessary, even if it had been safe, to turn it on. At one side of the

fireplace was a heavy curtain wnicn

covered the bay window we had seen

from eutside. On the other side was the door which communicated with the veranda. A desk stood in the center, with a turning-chair, of shining red leather. Opposite was a large bookcase, with a marble bust of Athene on the top. In the corner, between the bookcase and the wall, there stood a tall, gTeen safe, the firelight flashing back from the polished brass knobs upon its face. Holmes stole across and looked at it. Then he crept to the door of the bedroom, and stood with slanting head listening intently. No sound came from within. Meanwhile it had struck me that it would be wise to

secure our retreat through the outer door, so I examined it. To my amazement, it was neither locked nor bolted. I touched Holmes on the arm, and he turned his masked face in that direction. I saw him start, and he was evidently as surprised as I. "I don't like it," he whispered, putting his lips to my very ear. "I can't quite make it out. Anyhow, we have no time to Icse." "Can I do anything?" "Yes, stand by the door. If you hear anyone come, bolt it on the inside, and

character of our opponent, all added to the sporting interest of the adventure. Far from feeling guilty, I rejoiced and exulted in our dangers. With a glow

or admiration I watched Holmes un

rapidly approaching . They were in the

passage outside the room, i ney paused at the door. The door opened. There was a sharp snick as the electric light

was turned on. The door ciosea once more and the pungent reek of a strong cigar was borne to our nostrils. Then the footsteps continued backwards and forwards, backwards and forwards, within a few yards of us. Finally there

was a creak from a chair, and the foot- j steps ceased. Then a key clicked in a lock, and I heard the rustle of papers.

So far I had not dared to iook out, but now I gently parted the division of the curtains in front of me , and peeped through. From the pressure of Holmes' shoulder against mine, I knew that he was sharing my observations. Right in front of us, and almost within our reach, was the broad, rounded back of Milverton. It was evident that we had entirely miscalculated his movements, that he had never been to his

bedroom, but that he had been sitting up in some smoking or billiard room in

the farther wing or tne nouse, ine win

rolling his case of instruments andjdows of which we had not seen, wis choosing his tool with the calm, scien- broad, grizzled head, with its shining title accuracy of a surgeon who per- patch of baldness, was in the immed-

forms a delicate operation. I knew iate toregrouna or our vision, ne that the opening of safes was a par- leaning far back in the red leather ticular hobby with him, and I under- chair, his legs outstretched, a long, stood the joy which it gave him to be black cigar projecting at an angle from confronted with this green and gold j bis mouth. He wore a semi-military monster, the dragon which held in its smoking jacket, claret-colored, with a

maw the reputations of many fair ladies. Turning up the cuffs of his dress-coat he had placed his overcoat on a chair Holmes laid out two drills, a jemmy, and several skeleton keys. I stood at the center door with my eyes glancing at each of the others, ready for any emergency, though, indeed, my plans were somewhat vague as to what I should do if we were interrupted. For half an hour, Holmes worked with concentrated energy, laying down one tool, picking up another, handling each with the strength and delicacy of the trained mechanic. FinaHy I heard a click, the broad green door swung open,

black velvet collar. In his hand he held a long legal document which he was reading in an indolent fashion, blowing rings of tobacco smoke from his lips as he did so. There was no promise of a speedy departure in his composed bearing and his comfortable attitude. I felt Holmes' hand steal into mine and give me a reassuring shake, as if to say that the situation was within his powers, and that he was easy in his mind. I was not sure whether he had seen what was only too obvious from

my position, that the door of the safe

Holmes picked one out, but it was hard to read by the flickering fire, and he drew out his little dark lantern, for it was too dangerous with Milverton in the next room, to switch on the electric light. Suddenly I saw him halt, listen intently, and then in an instant he had swung the door of the safe to, picked up his coat, stuffed his tools into the pockets, and darted behind the window curtain, motioning me to do the same. It was only when I had joined him

there that I heard what had alarmed

verton might at any moment observe

it. In my own mind I had determined that if I were sure, from the rigidity

of his gaze, that it had caught his eye, I would at once spring out, throw my

great coat over his head, pinion him, and leave the rest to Holmes. But Milverton never looked up. He was languidly interested by the papers in bis hand, and page after page was turned as he followed the argument of the lawyer. At least, I thought, when he had finished the document and the cigar he will go to his room, out before

he had reached the end of either, there '

came a remarkable development, which turned our thoughts into quite another channel. Tomorrow The Final Problem, continued. ,

PURDUE HOG EXHIBIT

TIMELY HINTS

Display at Fair Shows Necessity of Using Protein for Best Gains. One of the best exhibits on the Indiana state fair grounds and one which attracted a great deal of attention from thousands of farmers and many city men who owned farms was that of the animal husbandry department of Purdue university or the fattening of spring pigs for market. Six live pigs tak

en from the experimental feed lots at Lafayette illustrated the point

in a forcible way the value of a protein supplement. The two pigs in one pen taken

from a lot of 10 at the university,

had been self-fed in dry lot on corn alone for 46 days. They had gained 37 pounds but required 6.3 pounds of corn per pound of gain. In the next pen were two other porkers that had received corn alone from a self-feeder while running on a clover pasture. They had gained 52 pounds in the same period and required only four pounds of corn per pound of gain. The other two pigs were from a lot of 10 which had been receiving corn and tankage self-fed and also allowed to run on clover pasture. It required 3.5 pounds of corn and .54 pounds of tankage per pound of gain. This rate of tankage consumption is more than double the usual amount eaten by pigs all the time they are

being fattened. It takes them

It is hardly worth while to set out strawberries or other plants in autumn if the ground is dry. Take up a few geraniums and other flowers for growing in the house this winter.

When potting bulbs or plants always see that there is plenty of drainage in the bottom of the pot. Poor drainage means sour soil and sickly, plants. Hyacinths should be planted early next month for later winter flowers.

tion with the same experiment, still in progress at Purdue, the experiment station is testing out the relative value of clover, alfalfa and rape as forages. The same experiment also is being used to test out the relative values of band feeding and the cafeteria system, which is rapidly finding favor on Indiana farms.

Corn is the basis for an economical hog ration. It is the most palatable grain fed to them, is

highly digestible, low in fibre, rich in carbohydrates, but low in protein. Careful investigations by the Ohio Experiment Station bring to light the fact that a large percent of this low protein content is not available for tissue growth or repair. m Ordinarily, tankage as a supplemeat to corn makes the simplest and cheapest method of feeding both the growing and fattening pigs. About 10 per cent of the

ration should be tankage. Skim milk may be used in place of tankage if it is available.

Deep, Late Fall Plowing ' Best Way to Fight Garlic Wild onions, otherwise known as garlic, which cause American farmers millions of dollars annual loss, can best be combated by deep, late fall plowing, in the opinion of the United States Department of Agri- ' culture. In plowing, the tops should be completely turned under. A jointer attached to the plow, and also disking before plowing will help to put the tops under. The following spring give the land a thorough preparation and plant to some tilled crop, such as corn in check rows. It is sometimes impracticable to eradicate this pest completely. An important remedial method in such cases is to sow small grain late in the fall, plowing and preparing the

land just before seeding the grain. This method will not destroy the onions, but gives them such a setback that the bullbets do not have time to mature before the grain is harvested. An important precautionary measure is to sow only grain which is free from bulblets. Damage from wild onion Is of two general classes. Cows eat the young shoots in spring, resulting in tainted milk and butter; and the bulblets which grow in clusters at the top of the stalk in summer are so nearly the size and weight of wheat kernels that it is difficult or almost impossible to separate them except after artificial or over-season drying- Onion-tainted wheat flour is highly objectionable in bread, and wheat thus fouled ia shunned by millers.
