All about him poppies, cornflowers and mar guerites yielded their quivering: stems for the passage of his lurching limbs. Bound around his wounded breast. | from which dripped blots of blood j redder than any poppy, were the tat tered colors of his regiment—red, | white and blue—the Hag of France. He had saved the colors from the Prussians. He would save them still. His comrades lay dead on the battle field; behind, the blaek eagles of Prussia rode rampant, victorious. But the colors of France were still his. Never, living, would he yield them. He remembered the captain’s las* words, the merry-eyed, handsome captain who now lay cold as wax upon the blood-sodden earth: “The colors, Gustave, mon vleux, save the colors.” And he had seized them from the stiffening hand of the standard hear er, wrenched them free from the lance that held them, and bound them about his bleeding body. Save the Flag. Then, turning, he had run blindly away from the field of red, white and blue dead into green fields full of red, white and blue flowers. It was early mornihg, but the sun beat warm unon the uncovered fields. He ran, crouching crookedly among the swaying grasses, as run drunken and wounded men. and the long flow ering things opened and let him pass, then hid him again. It was as if they knew w'hat he carried. Of a sudden, as he ran. he came upon a hedgerow that bounded the end of the field. In the patch beyond a girl, slim and brown and young, dug potatoes. He eyed her longingly as a thirsty man eyes the water. “P-s-st," he called, quaverlngly. She raised her head wonderinglj, one wooden-shod foot upon the eartin filled spade. "Who calls?" she cried. "France,” he said in a husky whis- per. It w-as as if a spark from the flame of his soul set hers afire. She came running to his call. Over the hedge he handed the tattered re mains of the colors to her. His wound opened afresh as he tore them from his side “The Prussians are coming,” he said. "Save these!” Obedient, her sun-burnt hands reached out and clutched across the flowering hedge at what he held. "And you—what of you?” she asked. He shrugged his shoulders. ■ Run.” he bade her. “Quick, be fore they come. They will not sus- pert if they do not see you. ' She eyed him gravely, without sur prise or remonstrance. One grows used to meeting men over open graves in war time. “God be with you,” was all she said. “Amen,” he answered, "and with France.” For a moment he waited, watching her speed across the garden, first casting aside her wooden shoes to run the swifter, and holding fast to her brown breast what looked, as she receded Into the distance, like a bunco of parti-colored tlowers. Only when the door of the thatched roof farm house had closed upon her did he turn away and crawl, stumhlingly, the length of another field. Saved! At the end he fell prone and lay quite still.

Or how was it that less than twenty minutes after Harriman had been roused by a telephone message from Baermann—the last before the serv ice was broken—hundreds of men and women In Tunnel City sensed that something was wrong with their mates In the lower workings? Long before 5 o'clock a crowd had gathered in front of the administra tion building, and at the entrance to th" tubes, and messengers began rac ing back and forth from one to the other gathering with the latest news. H ARRIMAN had had had news from his son a few flays before. The boy was dying in China of some mysterious tropic fever, and he had taken some drug to make him sleep. He jotted down Baermann's brief message, and it was many min utes before he was even partially master of himself. By the time, he was ready for definite action an im mense crowd, mostly women, had gathered and were demanding new's. The first of the trains had reached the surface; but the workmen knew nothing beyond the fact that some thing was wrong—that every one had dropped work and headed for the trains. They began calling to him in shrill, angry voices. In Rives’ absence he was in supreme command, as he was Rives’ chief of staff. He told a new ly roused clerk to go out and tell the crowd that nothing definite had been learned. They jeered at the young man and ho retired in angry dignity; whereupon the crowd began shouting for his chief again. The Dread News. Harriman went out. There were ignorant and excitable hordes of a dozen different races in the city, and he knew the necessity for keeping | them calm. When he stepped out onto the veranda in the gray dawn a respectful silence greeted him. Those people had grown to look oil the lords of the workings as their actual rulers, but every second’s de lay was making them uglier, and their quick suspicions were spurring them on. He looked them over and saw that they were almost without exception the wives of the workers. "I am sorry to have to tell you.” he said quietly in English, “that there has been a small explosion in the south gallery. Something went wrong with the drilling machine and it blew up. This is all we know at present, but it Is not serious.” There was a low murmur from the crowd as this short speech was swift ly translated Into a half st ore tongues “You mean that’s all you want tell!” cried a woman, shrilly. “1 wan na know ‘bout my husband! Is any of ’em dead?” The cry was taken up on every hand. Harriman flushed. "Don’t act like a lot of fools.” he barked angrily. “We don’t know any more about it than you do. Probably there are a few hurt—possibly some dead, but we will do everything we can.” This little show of temper had a quieting influence for a time, and the throng gradually drifted over to the tunnel entrance. And then Harriman began to got messages from along the line that gave him some idea of the frightful character of th«* disaster and the appalling confusion in the tunnel. But the trains were coming out. He stopped some of the ingoing trains as long as he dared, for he knew the swelling mob at the entrance would recognize the stoppage of the inbound traffic as a bad sign. All of the tracks were open for 35 miles in. One of them all the way. By shooting trains in to the seventh crossover and bring ing them back he kept up an appear ance of uninterrupted activity that was highly reassuring. Every man that dropped off of the outbound trains—the real ones and the fake ones—was eagerly sur rounded, but they could tell nothing —the early arrivals. They had been on their way out when the explosion occurred—they were working in the first two hundred miles and knew nothing but what they had heard. Still the crowd waited, storing into the two dark, round openings of the tubes that stared bark like two men acing eyes. And about 9 o’clock came the first train from the panic district of the boring. Gray-faced, wild-eyed men flung themselves from the cars before the train had come to a stop. "The tunnel is burning! All hell’s loose. The tunnel’s burning!” The thousands took up the terri ble cry. and in ten minutes Tunnel City echoed with it from end to end. Pandemonjum broke loose at the en trance. Frantic women dashed hither and yon. screaming the names of their husbands and fathers and sons. M« i. I cursed ami shook their fists and I reached for hidden weapons Several ! women fainted, and here and there I were bursts of hysterical laughter. Every man that cam** off the train was I wedged into the center of a close- packed circle, to which he told, in broken, tremulous phrases, the story I of the terrible panic. Non* knew any of the details of the explosion. In the midst of this chaos Harri man drove up in his car. waving his hand and shouting. A few hundred gathered around him. and he bel lowed at tl\ top of his lungs in a vain effort to make his words carry. “Cut this out and don’t act like— fina’ly decided that she would take her to Mr*. Mordock, who lived only a few hundred yards from the hospital and who e little girl was Edith’s chum. She had utterly forgotten Harri man’?* warning, which was not very impressive and elected to walk through the fine rain, to prepare her self for the long day indoors amid the odor of anesthetics and other smells suggestive of merciless clean liness which make a man shiver when he enters a hospital. The streets for a time were quiet and deserted, and there was nothing to remind Maud of Harriman’s warn ing. At last she was conscious that for some time she had been aware of a far-off murmur wnich was steadily growing louder and nearer. They were still on the ocean sid° driveway, but when they turned off into the broad avenue that led down past the hospital to the tunnel en trance the murmur suddenly swelled into a roar. To Be Continued Monday, Snap- Shots 1 fools!” he howled. “Haven’t you got sense enough to know that concrete and steel can’t burn? There has been a small explosion and a few timbers at the far end of the tunnel have burned and a lot of cowards ran and started all of this. The fire will be out in a short time and you need not ” A heavy atom* struck the floor of the tonneau just below where he was standing. Th** next instant another whizzed past his head, lit* crouched down, spoke to the chauffeur and th* car dashed out tin* press and purred down the roadway in a shower of stones. He drove madly to Allan's house to see if, by any chance, Mrs. Allan had received anything Ilk* a reply to a telegram he had sent as soon as he realized what the accident might develop in the way of compli cations. A mob is a great beast. It is with out moral courage. Being cowardly it is harmless until it is feared. Be ing primitive turns to man's primi tive weapon- tin* stone. This is one j of the reasons that the streets of modern cities are paved with asphalt. Warped and Stunted. When the distraught Harriman tied at the first missile the panic and rage of the horde of mon and women— especially women—which the habit of respect for the ruling powers had held in check, broke loose. A de tachment of a few thousand pro ceeded with a rush to the adminis tration building, where they smashed * very window in a dozen seconds. A couple of young engineers appeared at a window above the entrance with a revolver in each tyind, and this cooled the desire to enter and seek further vengeance. Another assistant phoned to Toms River for troops, which were always there in antici pation of just such an outbreak as seemed now certain to occur. Roaring thnats and curses the fragment of the mob returned to the great seething horde at the tunnel en trance, wrecking the homes of a few of “the bosses” on the way. Allan’s chief of police hastily gath ered as many of his men as he could and rushed the mob. but his handful were scattered by the first volley of stones, and knowing how heavily they were outnumbered he was afraid to give orders to shoot. An unsuccess- * ful attempt to break up a mob i- much worse than no attempt at all, and the flames of destruction roared higher. Behind these men and women there was no tradition of patriotism, no conception of justice. For genera tions they had been bred in social in justice of the most terrible kind. Their forefathers had come to Amer ica as to a land of promise and lib - | erty, only to find that they had ex changed a comparatively light politi cal slavery for an inhuman industrial one. ' Of this generation that was digging I the tunnel the fathers and grand fathers had worked in factories and mills and mines as children. Only ! the very strong had survived. They J had produced a race of iron-muscled, tireless men and women, out utterly warped and stunted morally and mentally. For years they had toiled in the dust and darkness. In a dim way they understood that what they were working in would one clay be a means of transportation under th*' seas to a mysterious "Europe " But they worked because only by the A Heavy Stone Struck the Door of the Tonneau. WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE The story opens with Rives, who Is in charge of the technical work ings of the gnat tunnel from America to Germany, on one of the tunnel trains with Baermann, an engineer, in charge of Main Station No. 4. They are travelitaft. at the rate of 11*8 miles an hour. Rives is in love with Mam!*' A llaw' wife of Mackendrick Allan, whose mind first conceived the great tunnel scheme. After going about 350 miles under the Atlantic Ocean Rives gets out of the train. Suddenly the tunnel seems to burst. There is a frightful explosion. Men are flung to death and Rives is badly wounded. Ho staggers through the blinding smoke, realizing ihat about 3.000 men have probabl> perished. He and oher survivors get to Station No. 4 Rives finds Baermann holding at bay a wild mob of frantic men who want t<> . limb on a work train, wmit body shoots Baermann, and the train slides out. The scene is then changed to the roof of the Hotel Atlantic*. The greatest financiers of the country are gathered there at a summons from C. H. Lined. "The Monev King." John Rives addresses them, and introduces Al lan.' Mrs A Li a 11 and Maude Lloyd, daughter of the financier, are also pres ent Allan tells the company of his project for a tunnel 3.100 miles long. The financiers agree to back him. Allan, and Rives want him to take charge of th** actual work. Rives accepts. Rives goes to the Park Club to meet Wit- tersteinor. a financier. \t Columbus Circle news of the great project is being flashed on a s tven. Thousands are watching it. Mrs. Allan becomes a lonely and neglected woman and is much thrown in thtf company of Rives. Sydney Wolf, the money power of two continents, plots against Allan and Rives. Now Go On With the Story. direst toil could they live, and they worked not for an impersonal corpo ration, but for a man the whole world knew ns "Mac." He was the father of their well-being and their meager pay envelopes, and by tin* simple ex tension of this primitive logic he was just surely the author of.their mis fortunes. If he had deliberately planned the execution of their mates they oq,u Id not have been more clam orous for his blood. They stood In close-packed thou sands in th** rain and waited and waited with yells and threats for the last w ord from underground. Thor * was a long delay in which no trains ittsued from the staring darkness of the tubes, but at last the train that Baermann had tiled to hold at the cost of his life roared out into the light. "We’re the lavt— no more!” the laborers sobbed and yelled as they piled out of tilt cars in a mad rus ; . a«j if fearing they might be taken back into the hell which they had escaped. For a moment there was stunned si lence. as the dulled wits of the mob strove to grasp the magnitude of the blow that had wiped out 3,000 hus bands and fathers and sons. Then it was broken by the shrill, hysterical screaming ot a woman un der the lee of one of the cars. She was standing or crouching over the last man to leave the train. He had been carried off, dead, stabbed to death in a tight for place on that "last train.’’ ‘Vesare! Ce^are!” -'he shrieked, again and again. And then there was bedlam. Telling Mrs. Allan. No word from Allan at the office. Harriman dashed at top speed through the streets to the chief’s house. He passed scores and hun dreds of shawled women and coatless men hastening all in one direction— toward the tunnel. He closed his eyes and tried to rally his mind, still par tialis numb* d from the effect of the narcotic and the suddenness ot the disaster. Leaving his car at the curb, he ran lip the steps of the oceanside home and asked to see Mrs. Allan at once. "She'.*-* just rising, I think,” the maid told him. "Please tell her it is very impor tant. Do you know if she has heard from Mr. Allan?” < "A telegram just came a moment ago. I don't know w hom it was from. ’ "Please tell her I would like to se^ her at once.” Maud came down in a dressing gown with the telegram in her hand. "What is it, Mr. Harriman?” she asked pleasantly, but with a shade of anxiety. “Has anything happened? Can you explain this?” She* handed him the telegram. It read: “Will be home to-night. Don’t worry.” "Do you know what's happened ill the tunnel?” he asked abruptly. "No; my maid said she had heard there’d been an accident.” She was regarding the usually composed engi neer with some wonder. “Is it very serious?” A Terrible Shock. "T am afraid it is." he replied, gravely but quietly. There was no sense in alarming a woman. “What is it?” she demanded quickly. “There’s been an explosion at the extreme end of the boring on this side,” he told her. “We don’t know yet how serious it.is. but I am afraid that a lot of men have been hurt— perhaps killed.” Maud suddenly went deathly white i and unconsciously crushed the little I Yellow paper in her small fingers*. "Where is Ja—Mr. Rives?” she i asked, forcing herself w ith tremen dous effort to'spea-N steadily. The gray-haired man passed his hand across his closed eyes and shud dered. “I wish to God I knew!” he ex claimed. “1” “He was—down there?” Her lips were white, but her manner w as cairn. "I’m sorry, but he was. It isn’t any use. Mrs. Allan.” he said desperately, “I can’t conceal it from you. I’m afraid the accident is just about as bad as it can be. That’s why I’m crazy to get Mr. Allan here as quick ly as possible. I’ve got to get along now. and—by the way, there is likely to be a good deal of excitement, and I wouldn’t roam around much if I were you.” “I won’t," said the woman, dully. And he was gone Maud groped her way back up stairs to her dressing room, where she locked herself in and sank into a chair, stunned. So this was the quick end of all of it! Minute after minute slipped away, and she tried in vain to rally her whirling thoughts and think clearly while that one sen tence rang over and over again in her ears—“this i< the end of it all.” It was characteristic of her that she did not weep as the full realization came to her. In spite of the fact of her marriage and her child, some thing had come to her of which she had long ceased to dream—the stain less love of a knightly hearted man. She had hardly slept in the night for the wonder of it. She had felt that she was not worthy, that this was not for her, and here was the proof. She knew* enough of the tunnel workings to know that if there had been an ac- I eident. and Rives had not been heard from, it was because he was incapable of action—dead or dying. Then came a swift rush of rage and bitter rebellion against the tunnel and all who wrought in Its name. What had it brought her but misery? It had cost her her husband first, and now the one man who was of fiber fine enough to place her love beyond all else had been swallowed up in its maw in the twinkling of an eye. About her were thousands who were toiling swiftly toward the grave in pain and weariness. Probably thousands ot these had been wiped out with Rives, and as many thousands of women found themselves that day as desolate as she. She would leave that day and go somewhere where she would nevei hear the accursed word “tunnel” again, and—then came a timid knock at the door, and little Edith’s vdice calling. A poet who knew women—as poets are likely to—once told in graceful little lines of a woman whose lord | w as slain, and who could not be in- | duced to weep until a wise nurse put I her child in her arms. Five minutes ; after Edith had snuggled into her lap i the mother had given the woman a i new and cleaner vision. “You run along now, darling, and I get dressed,” she told her with a kiss. I “You’re going out with mother.” The Mob. The anger and bitterness had | passed. She was no longer the lover j robbed of her love. She was a w om- l an, and all about her was the call to | which a woman is never deaf—the cry of suffering and grief and misery, j Hundreds would be injured and they | would be brought out and taken to the hospital. There would be wives ; and mothers to console and comfort, i The hospital forces and supplies | would probably have to be reinforced ‘ from other cities. All this was part ! of her chosen work, and this was the I one time that she must not fail. When they w ere about to leave she i reflected that the hospital of all places would be the last one for Edith ; to spend the day. But to-day. more i than any other, she felt reluctant to I leave the child with the servants.

Y r et looking in your eyes—I can not KNOW. A FICTION LESS FABLE. There was once a woman whom Life hurt. It drained her heart of joy, and left it empty and throbbing with sor row. She bore it moahing for a time and then she set about filling the empty shell. She seized upon all the things that lay near at hand and packed them tightly into the throbbing loneliness of her barren heart. There were Cards and Song and Dancing and Wine and Gay Compan ions and Loud Merrymaking, and she forced them all—a motley company— into the cold emptiness of her desola tion. Oblivion and the forgetfulness she sought did not come, but fever and ex citement kept her brain whirling far away from the sadness of reality. It chanced one day that True Love passed by, and he stopped at the door of her heart. He knocked, but the ears of her Soul were dulled with minstrelsy and its eyes were blinded by the glare and glitter of revelry, so heither Heart nor Soul could tell the woman that he who stood without w r as True Love. At last—and timidly—Love opened the door of the Heart that offered him no welcome. but when he saw how crowd ed that heart was with tinsel and paste Jewels, he sighed. "Alas! there is nu room for me." and went his way. And the woman went on playing that she was happy and content. But Love—hurt and slighted—would not pass that way again forevermore. —LILIAN LAV FF ERTY. tism. "No," he w’ould reply sadly, trying to make his legs, which were twisted like Harry Lauder’s walking stick, stay on the same sidewalk—"I am sleeping in the hammock.” “Your face.” the boys had been-saying to Chauncey Devere alT summer, “looks as if you had the smallpox.” ‘ Mark's of the buttons on the parlor lounge,” was his reply. Women stafid martyrdom better, thriving on it in a measure, and Mrs. Appleton and Daysey Mayme bore no marks of trying to curve their forms over the trunk top and around the flour and sugar boxes on the pantry shelf. No war cry such as “Remember the Maine!” ever Incited soldiers to greater 4 deeds of frenzy and devotion than the words "Remember, we have guests," have incited women. "Where," asked Lysander Johtn one morning, trying in vain to straighten out his legs in such a way he could have both in the kitchen at the same time, "are my gray hat and gray suit?” “Your hat,” replied his wife, “is on the top shelf of the closet of the room 4 occupied by Mrs. A.; your coat is under * three rows of dresses in the closet of the room occupied by Mrs. B., and your trousers are being pressed under the mattress of the bed on which Mrs. C. is sleeping They left word last night they didn’t want to be wakened before ten to-day, so go back to your hammock till they leave their rooms.” The Solution. Half an hour later, forgetting*his di lemma, she carried off the suit lie had been wearing to the cleaner's. A few minutes later the telephone rang, and Lysander John, realizing that his wife had gone out and his daughter was still asleep on the pantry shelf, fell 6ut of his hammock to answer it. The offTce is on fire,” called hds as sistant. “Better get a taxi and. come at once.” He couldn’t find his brown suit, and, remembering his wife’s directians of where he would find the gray, burst into the room occupied TTy Mis. A. Fire!” he managed to stammer, trying to make the closet door shield hdm, as he threw out layer after layer of skirts, petticoats, waists, kimonos, jackets, dresses and coats. "Fire!” he screamed, growing so excited he threw the gar ments out of the window in trying to dig his way down to his coat. "Fire!” he howled a moment later, pulling down twenty hat boxes from the shelves of the closet of the room where slept Mrs. B. and pitching them 1 out the window. “Fire!*’ he howled in greater despera tion in the third room, upsetting the guest out of bed in an effort to get his trousers from under the mattress, and “Flre!“ “Fire!” "Fire!" began all the guests at once, thinking the house was ablaze. In the excitement Lysander John * failed to find what he wanted and rushed out of the house with a pale pink pic ture hat on his head, a blue silk ki mono over his shoulders, and his Harry Lauder walking-stick legs concealed in a petticoat. “I refuse to be bailed out,” he said defiantly next day to a friend. "I am a guest here, ^nd it is the first chance I’ve had to sleep on a bed all summer.’* Fiction. In Aiken they tell this story as having happened in Augusta, but in Augusta they tell the same story on a clergyman of Aiken: “A very devout clergyman decided to take up golf as a means of outdoor exercise. "Buying a kit of tools and hiring a caddy, the good man hit the trail for the links and teed up for a drive-off. At the first swing he missed the hall by about six yards. At the next swat he got a little nearer, but was still too far away to cause the ball any great in convenience. "Several more swings that racked his ribs, and finally the clergyman hit the little sphere. Instead of beautifully sail ing away over the scheduled route, how ever, it took a side road at the right an gles, ricocheted down over in the box cars and semaphores. “ ‘That settles it,’ exclaimed the dis- y appointed clergyman In a decisive voice, ‘I have got to give it up!’ " ‘What!’ exclaimed the caddy, won* deringly. ‘Give up golf?’ “ ‘No,’ was the quick response of the clergyman, ‘the ministry.’ ” Funeral Designs and Flowers FOR ALL OCCASIONS.
