C,G, ENDS SEASON WITH VICTORIES

BOTH LOCAL TEAMS W I N N E R S

AT BAD AXE.

Four Strong Players Are Seniors and Are Playing Last Season in

High School Teams.

At Bad Axe Friday, Cass City high school girls defeated the county seat team in basket ball by a score of 33- 20 while the boys: team won from Bad Axe by a tally of 23-12. Friday's game made six s t raight victories for the local girls ' t eam this season and five out of six for the boys.

This was the last game for three senior girls, Mislsesi Nri~z, Ben~eI- man and McPhail, and also for Capt. Duneanson of the boys' team. They will surely be missed on next year's squad.

Both games were exceedingly fast and well played. Miss Morgan and C. R. Townsend handled the girls game very satisfactorily, while Mr. Townsend and "Dad" Watkins did likewise in boys' game.

DRYS HOP[ TO SPLIT STATF [V[N

LOCAL OPTION UP IN 16

DISTRICTS.

Capturing Eight More Counties Will

Make It "50--50"; Hard

Fight Is On.

To take 12 counties f rom the wet list and make them dry; to keep four dry counties in the anti-liquor ranks; to pass the S t ra ight bill and make Michigan dry under it for two years, and eventually to make Michigan dry by constitutional a m e n d m e n t - - t h a t is the program of the Ant i ;Saloonleague for the next few weeks and months.

Thirty-four Michigan counties are now dry, and 50 are wet. By adding eight counties to the dry list, the An- ti-Saloon league will have split the state equally. Officers of the league are confident of victory in nine counties, and have good hope of success in the other three, where they admit that the result will be dose.

The wet counties which it is proposed to make dry are Berrien, CM- houn, Kalamazoo, Oakland, Lapeer, Tuscola, Mason, Grand Traverse, Em- met, in the lower peJinsula; Alger, Iron and Chippewa, above the straitS. Th~ dry counties which must be re- ta i led, ~:~ and where the wets are fighting hard, are Genessee, Eaton, Sani- lac and Lenawee.

"When half the counties of a state go dry by local option, state-wide prohibition is not far away," says Edwin Simpson, superintendent of the De- trol t District of the Anti-Saloon league.

" T h e r e was a t ime when districts went dry for a lmost pro ely senti- mental reasons, but tha t t ime is past, and now sound economic and scien- tific facts are brought forward as the reasons for fighting the liquor traffic. The local option victories in Michigan have put 1,955 saloons out of business; and as the Uni ted States gov- e rnment has es t imated tha t the income of a saloon averages between $5,000 and $7,000 a igear, it can easily be seen tha t the work of the anti-saloon campaigners has saved the state about $10,000,000 annually. The annual expense of the Anti-Saloon league is about $33,000. Is eo t ~ b u - tion to this work a paying ini~st-

m e n t ? We think it is." While the Anti-Saloon league is in

favor of the S t ra igh t bill for state wide prohibition, it will not be very much disturbed if tha t measure is withdrawn.

"If the Stra ight bill fails, we are ready to begin the circulation of peti- tions for a consti tutional amendment

t o make the ent ire s tate dry," said Mr. Simpson. "Legis la t ive prohibi-

t i o n has its drawbacks. I t settles the ques t ion only until the legislature m e e t s again, in two years. With the same amount of energy •expended, we feel tha t we can secure state-wide

prohibi t ion, since a vote is necessary under t h e Stra ight bill, as well as on a constitutional amendment . I believe tha t the leading Republicans would be glad to see the question set- tled once for all, as they feel that the work of the legis lature is being ham- pered by the liquor issue which is constantly before it ."---Detroit Times.

CARe MAN FINALLY GETS MONEY IN BEIRUIT

After t rying several agencies, Con- gressman Cramton has succeeded in having $300 sent to Ralph Hamady, a merchant of Care, Michigan, who went to Bei~uit, Turkey, and was un- able to l e ~ since the outbreak of the European war. The state depar tment at fizst refused to handle the money because Hamady was not a citizen, having takenout only his first papers. The Standard Oil company then made an at tempt to t ransmi t the money, but was unsuccessful because of the dismganized state of their business in the far east. Mr. Cramton again took the matter up with the state depar tment which succeeded in getting" the money through to the American consul at Beiruit.

BELGIAN FLOUR SHIPPED One Hundred Fourteen Barrels Sent

by Tuscola County People.

Geo. B. Marsh, W. A. Wellemeyere and Robt. Morrison, all of Vassar, and members of the Belgian Relief Committee of Tuseota County which has had in charge the work of solicit- ing and receiving funds to be used in the purehase~of flour to be shipped to Belgium to assist in the relief of the starving people of tha t country, dosed up the business last week and shipped the flour to Saginaw, where it will be held until called for by the national committee.

The total amount of money eontl~ib - uted was $823.84, and a s ta tement of the receipts and expenditures is given below. The number of barrels shipped was one hundred fourteen, the ad- vance in price being such tha t the money did not purchase as much flour as it was expected it would when the committee first began its work. It was also necessary to pay f re igh t on the flour to Saginaw, the rai lroads having rescinded their order to give free transportat ion to relief goods being shipped to Belgium.

ItAIS[ WON'T [IUll[ ALL EVILS OF P. M |

THIS IS OPINION OF SENATOR CORLISS.

Something Radically Wrong in Man- agement Asserts Senator of

Tuscola-Lapeer District.

Sena to r Terry Corliss, of Tuscola county, does not agree with Receiver Paul H. King tha t the raise in passenger rates is the only thing tha t wilI cure the exist ing evils of the Pore Marquette. \ Senator Corliss believes there are many other things the matter.

Senator Corliss has this to say relative to his a t t i tude:

"Because I offered a resolution in the senate asking the railroad com- mission for some information which might have some bearing upon the biggest question before the legislature, I have been accused of s tar t ing a fight in the senate against the railroads. Such is not the case. I am not fi~hting the railroads, nei ther am I fighting" for them. They have pro- s en ted their side of the case very ef- fectively, but there has been abso- lutely no presentat ion of the other side of the case, if there be one. If I vote for a raise in railroad passenger

r a t e s , I want my consti tuents to k n o w tha t I did not do so wi thout at i least making an effort to secure all t h e information obtainable concerning the subject.

"There a re .o ther things the mat ter with the Pore Marquette besides a tack of passenger revenues. Not so very long ago I had occasion to o r d e r a carload of lumber from a Detroit firm for the schooI district at May- vitle. The car stood on the tracks in Detroit over a week and I spent $2 in telephon!ng the cmcials of the road ar.d had to Call upon the railroad cotn- n fission twi~e t o get the car locateL It took the car over three weeks to get to Mayvitle. This happened in A u g u s t , which is ordinarily a dull season in the f re ight business. This would in- dicate to me tha t tb.m'e must be something radically wrou~ in the m~aa~e.

"While a large number of petit ions are being" received endorsing a raise in passenger rates, they are not all: fairly representat ive of the communi- ties from which they come. Here is a sample of one petition from a thriving- village in the T h u m b district. I t is s igned by the railroad station agent, h i s 10-year-old son, two section men, two elevator men, one stock sh ipper a n d a blacksmith. The last named might be a relative of the station agent for all I know.

"For a t ime I received nothing bu t requests to vote for a raise in passenger rates, -but within the las t few days

p ro t e s t s have commenced to come in, I notice tha t most of the personal let- t w s ask me to vote to help out the Pere Marquette. Many of these doubt- less come from people who do not un- derstand tha t it is not possible to help the Pore Marqutte without helping every other road in Michigan.

C H A P T E R Vll . The Lonely Man.

~ ~ I ( : T O R t A s tooped to fill her ha t f f at the slwing. F i rs t she lea/~ed

tar down to quench her own thirst.

A su,iden, warning growl f rom Ter- koz brou:a'l~.t her head up. attd there, ]Act [(211 [)~(('L'S from her, she saw a dozen wMte robed Arabs and behind ~hem i m l f a hundred blacks. All were ,armed; evil looking" fe l lows they were, and one o[" the Arabs had covered her wiN} his h)n~ gun. ~

Now i~e spoke to her, but in a tongue M~e (.lid not unders tand, though she k~mw tha t l~is message was unfr iendly , u.ud imngine(t that it wa rned her not ~() a t t e m p t to use her" own rifle which h~y beside her. Next i~e spoke to those behind him. and two of them ap- In'()a('hed the girl, one f rom ei ther side, while the leader cont inued to keep his !;ioce leveled at her.

As tire two came t o w a r d her she heard a menac ing growl f rom the wolfhound and then saw him leap for t h e m~arest Arab. The fe l low c lubbed his gun and s w u n g it full upon Terkoz 's skull, so t ha t the fa i th fu l hound col- lapsed in a silent heap a t thei r feet.

Then the two rushed in and seized Victoria's. rifle. A momen t later she was rough ly dragged toward the leader ~of the ill favored gang.

Through one of the blacks, a wes t coast negro wi~o had picked up a s m a t t e r i n g of pidgin English, the leader ques t ioned the girl, and when he found tha t she was a gues t of Lord ~ v e v s t n k e an -~}v grin crossed his evil face, for the fel low recal led wha t .had befa l len another Arab s lave and ivory c a r a v a n a t the hands of the Eng- l i shman and his Waziri warriors. Here was an oppor tun i ty for partial revenge.

He mot ioned for his fol lowers to bring her along. There w a s no t i m e to t a r ry in this coun t ry of their enemies, in to which they had accidenta l ly s t u m b l e d a f t e r being lost in the jungle for the b e t t e r par t of a month•

Victoria asked wha t their intent ions t o w a r d her were, but all tha t she could learn was tha t they would take her north with them. She offered to a r r ange tt~e t)ayment of a su i tab le ran- sore if the5- would re turn her to her f r iends unharmed, but the Arab only laughed at her.

"You will bring a good price," he said, "'at the cuurt of the sul tan ot Fulad, nor th of Tagwara , and for the res t I shall have part ly se t t led the score whictt I have aga ins t the Eng- lishman.'"

So Victoria Custer d i sappeared from the s ight o f men a t the border of the land of the Waziri, nor was there any o ther t h a n her captors to k n o w the de- vious route that they fol lowed to gain the coun t ry north of Uziri.

When a t last Nu, the son of N u opened his eyes f rom the deep s lum0er tha t had ref reshed and invigorated him he looked up expec tan t ly for the face t ha t had been hover ing above his: and as he realized tha t the cave was t enan t l e ss except for himself a sigh t ha t was half sob broke from the dep ths of his lonely heart , for he knew tha t Nat-ul had been with him only it~ his dreams.

Yet i t had been so real'. Even now he could feel the touch or her cool hand upon his forehead and her slim fingers running through his hair. i/its cheek g lowed to her hot kisses, and in his nostri ls was the s w e e t aroma o~ her dear presence.

The dis i l lus ionment of his waking brought with it bi t ter d i sappo in tment and a r e tu rn of the fever. Again Nu lapsed into semiconsciousness and de- lirium, so tha t he was not a w a r e of the khak i clad white man t ha t crept

- w a r i l y into the half da rknes s of his lair shor t ly a f t e r noon.

I t was Barney Custer, and behind trim came Curtiss. Bu tzow and a half dozen o thers of the sea rch ing parW. T h e y had s tumbled upon the half dead Terkoz beside the spring, and there also they had found Victoria Custer 's hat, and plainly in the sof t ear th between the bowlders of the hillside they had seen the new made pa th to the cave h igher up.

~When Barney saw tha t the pros t ra te figure wi th in the cavern did not stir at his en t r ance a stifling fear rose in his throat , fo r he w'~s sure t ha t he had found the dead body of his sister', but as his eyes became more accus tomed to the dim l ight of the inter ior he realized his m i s t a k e - - a t first with a sense of in- finite rel ief and later with misgivings t ha t a m o u n t e d almost to a wish tha t it had been Victoria. sa fe in dea th ; for among the savage men of savage Af- rioa the re are fa tes worse than dea th for women.

The o thers had c rowded in beside him. and on'~ had lighted a torch of dry twigs, which for a f ew seconds il- l umina ted the interior of the cave brightly. In tha t t ime they s aw tha t the m _ a n ~ , a s the o n l y occupan t and

i

it that he was helpless f rom fever. Beside him lay the s tone spear that

had slain O ld Raffles. Each of them :.e(.ognized it. How could it have been !wought to him?

; "The zebra killer." sa~l Brown. ~ "Wha t ' s that beP.,e:~.ii~ P,i~ :~e;~d~ Looks

Hke a khaki coat.'" • V I,arne. drew it out and held it up.

• "God!" cried Curtiss. " I t ' s hers!" " "He must have come down there

;~fter we left, got his speqr and stolen your sister," said Brown.

Curtiss drew his revoh 'e r and push- ed closer towqrd the mwonseions Nil.

"The beast'." he a'rowled "Shoot- [ng 's ' too good ' for him. Get out • o~ the way, B a r n e y ; I'm o. • o ~oln~ to give him all six chambers.'"

• 'No." said Barney quietly, • 'VVhy?" demar.ded Curtisu, trying to

push past Custer. " 'Because I don't believe that he

• (_ , harmed Victoria," replied l:,atn '5 "That ' s suffieiet)t reason for waiting until we know the truth. Then l

l won' t . ~ d for the killing of an u~ .conscious man. a n y w a y . "

| "'He's nothing t~ut a beast a mad /

]dog," insisted Curtiss. " H e should l)e ~killed for what he is I'd 'never have

thought to see you defending- the man who killed your sister."

"Don ' t be a fool, Curtiss." snapped Barney. "We don't know that Vie- toria 's dead. The chances are that this man has been helpless f rom fever fox' a long time. There ' s a wound in his head tha t was probably made by your shot last nighL

"'If he recovers f rom tha t he may be able to th row some light on Vic- toria 's disappearance. I f it develops that he has harmed her I 'm the one to demand an account ing--not you. As t said before, I do not believe that this man would have harmed a hair of my sister 's head."

" W h a t do you know about him?" demanded Curtiss.

"'I never saw him before," replied Barney. "I don't ' . . . . . . . . h,~ h~ ~ m, where he came from, but I know-- Well, never mind wha t I know, except tha t there isn' t anvbody. ~,~o'~in o'~ to kill him other than Barney Custer."

"Custer 's right." broke in Brown "It would be murder to kill this fel- low in cold blood. You have jumped to the conclusion, Curtiss, that Miss .Custer is dead. If we let you kill this man we might be des t roying our best chance to locate and rescue her."

As they talked the. gaunt figure of the wolfhound, Terkoz. crept into the cave. He had not been killed by the Arab 's blow. and a liberal dose of cold water 1)cured over his head had helped to hasten returning consciousness.

He nosed, whining, abou t the cavern asqthough in search of Victoria.

The men watched him in silence after Brown had said: " I f this man harmed Miss Custer' and laid out Terkoz the beast 'll be keen for revenge• Watch him, and ' if Curt iss is right there wot f t any of us have to avenge your sister. Terkoz 'll take care of that. l know him."

• 'We'll leave it to Terkoz," said Bar- ney.

After" the animal had made the complete rounds of the cave, sniffing at every crack and crevice, he came to each of the watching men, nosing them carefully.

Then he walked di rect ly to the side of the unconscious Nu, licked his cheek and, lying down beside him, rested his h e a d upon the man ' s breast so tha t his fierce, wolfish eyes were pointed s t ra ight and watchfu l at the group of men opposite him.

There! ' said Barney, leaning down and s t roking the beas t ' s head.

The hound whined up into his face, bu t when Curtiss approached he rose. bristling, and, s tanding across the body of Nu, growled ominously at him.

"You'd bet ter keep a w a y from him, Curt iss ," warned Brown. "He a lways

has had a sErange Way with him in his l ikes and dislikes, and he's a mighty ugly cus tomer to deal wi th when he's crossed. He's killed one man already --a big Wambol i s p e a r m a n who was s ta lk ing Greystoke up in the north country last fall. Let ' s see i f he's got it in for the res t of us."

One by one Terkoz suffered the oth- ers to approach Nu. Only Curt iss seemed to rouse his savage, protect ive inst inct .

As they discussed their plans for the immediqte h~ture Nu opened his eyes with a v,,"~rn of consciousness .

At si'-:h ,)f the s trange figures about him he s:,,[ up and reached for his spear, but Barney had had the f o r e sight to remove this weapon , as well a.~ the man's knife and hatchet, from his reach.

As the cave man came to a si t t ing posture Barney laid a hand upon his shoulder.

" W e shall not ha rm you." he said. "i f you wil l 1:ell us w h a t has become of

Nu understood but the single word Nat-ul, but the f r iendly tone and the h l t n d l lDOn h i s s l l o u l d e l " ( . O l l V i l i c e d h i l n

How long will CaBs City be con- tented to remain in the old wate r ing can class? Why not do as other modern villages do and instead of a drop of Water on dusty road~, which dry up the minute after, use oil and keep dust and germs and disease f rom blowing around, keep weeds f rom growing in the streets, keep automobiles from sucking the road i~ito grooves, make the general ap- pearance of our ,v i l lage 100 per cent

b e t t e r ? Why not invest igate and i see if i t is not only healthier, but al- l so more economical to use modern [ methods ?
