The fire alarm was sounded last Wednesday morning about 2:30 o'clock , and it was soon known throughput the town that Elrod & Co.'s spoke mill was burning. The fire engine and crew, and hundreds of people were soon down- - to the scene. The fire company worked heroically, but it was soon discovered that the flames could not be extinguished, and in a short time the mill building, a large lot of breast yokes, all the machinery, and everything connected with building were in ashes. The building was too far gone to save it when the engine and crew reached the fire. It is .estimated thattwo thousand dollars worth of breast yokes were destroyed. Adding the machinery, building and every thing else connected with the mill the loss will reach seven .thousand dollars and there was no insurance. Mr. Elrod has no idea how the building caught. At the church hour he, left his residence and passed through the mill on his way to services, and everything was all right. He does not smoke, and Jit loous veryunuch like It was set on fire.

Then there was a these mileage methods have that sense of immeasurable relief at his sudden and unexpected freedom from the financial problems his father had left. He would have no more with impatient creditors, no more would he strive to gather together the. ruins of the business, and attempt to salvage the small remaining fragments of his father's fortune. He had no plans, he didn't know which way to turn. All at once, through the message that Barney had brought him, he had seen a clear trail ahead. It was something to do, something at last that mattered. Finally there remained the eminent fact that this was an answer to his dream.

Incidentally Bill Mitchell, one of the veteran flyers of the country, told the secretary of war of a unique experience he had the other day in the vicinity of Detroit when making a flight from Chicago. General Mitchell ran into a thunder cloud which had a length of at least 120 miles. e General Mitchell had never In his prevl'j experience ran Into a storm of tl'-- size. Thunder clouds, always a deterrent to aviators, usually measure about twenty miles and by flying on the edge of them the aviator can get into the open in short time. After skirting the edge of this cloud for some eighty miles General Mitchell found that It extended still forty miles.

V - Discussing his visit with General who had just completed a trip 'from McCook field, Dayton, 0., to Boiling field, Secretary Weeks said that General Mitchell believes that stricter examination and licensing Is the great prerequisite to the development of commercial aviation In the United States. Before the general public can feel assurance regarding commercial air routes the secretary said there must be legislation that provides rigid Inspection ,of airplanes and the licensing of pilots. Federal regulations are deemed the most appropriate, as these would eliminate discrepancies In laws and conduce to uniformity. Encourage Commercial Aircraft. From the standpoint of the War department the development of commercial aircraft should have every encouragement for the reason that It would provide for the army a great reserve of competent pilots and officers In any national emergency. At the present time there Is no law providing forythe Inspection or regulation of pHots or their machines when engaged In commercial service, and thhgfact, the secretary of war has given rise to many of the accidents that have occurred. As an example of the degree of safety which may be attained In commercial flying the secretary of war Instanced the fact that one commercial line operating between Miami, Flai, and Nassau has carried 50,000 to 100,000 passengers without an accident The same company that opu route is, now erates the interested In developing an air route between Detroit and Cleveland by way of the lake.

The other lasting memory was of Linda.

"Week ago Tuesday." "And why have you been so long in telling me?" When Dave's chief asked questions in this tone, 'answers- - always came quickly. They rolled so fast from the mouth that they blurred and ran together. "Why, Simon you ain't been where I could see you. Anyway, there was nothln' we could have done." "There wasn't, eh? I don't suppose you ever thought that there's yet two months before we can clinch this thing for good, and young Folger might I say might have kicking about somewhere In his belongings the very document weve all of us been worrying about for twenty years."

It's nothing to worry about, either. There Is one back door that has been opened many times to let his people go through, and It may easily be opened again." Dave's eyes filled with admiration. Then he turned and gazed out through the window. Against the eastern sky, already wan and pale from the encroaching dawn, the long ridge of a mountain stood In vivid and startling silhouette. The edge of it was curiously jagged with many little upright points. There was only one person who would haye been greatly amazed by that outline of the ridge; and the years and distance had obscured her long ago. This was a teacher at an or- Iphanage in a distant city, who once The reason went back to a certain quickening of the senses that is the peculiar right and property of most men who are really residents of the wilderness. This man was the son of the wild as much as the wolves that ran In the packs. Soft though It was, he had heard the sound of approaching feet in the pine needles. As surely as he would have recognized the dark face of the man in the doorway, he recognized the sound as Dave's step. The man came in, and at once an observer would have detected an air of deference in his attitude. Very plainly he had come to see his chief. He was a year or two older than his host, less powerful of physique, and his eyes did not hold quite so straight. There was less savagery but more cuanlng in his sharp features. He blurted out his news" at once. "Old Elmlra has got word down to the settlements at last," he said. There was no muscular response In the larger man. Dave was plainly disappointed. He wanted his news to cause a stir. It was true, however, that Ms host slowly raised his eyes. that had come.

Credit for this Invention has been claimed in many quarters notably for Winston Churchill, now colonial' secretary, who was said to have submitted it to Mr. Asquith on January 5, 1915. Now the Morning Post has come forth with a claim for Lord Kitchener and a Captain Bentley, under whose joint auspices, the newspaper asserts, the first tank was produced.

The next day he received a telephone call from Colonel Fitzgerald, military secretary to Lord Kitchener, directing him to report at the war office in Whitehall. When he arrived there he was taken to Lord Kitchener, under whom he had served in South Africa and to whom he was well known. Real Story of Tank. Kitchener, the story runs, greeted him as follows: . "Downstairs, La the quadrangle, there's an armored cart Woolwich has made for me. It's the result of the united brains of the army and navy experts. We want it fori this trench fighting which they've begun, in France. Qo down, have a look at It and tell me what you think about It" Captain Bentley and Colonel Fitzgerald Inspected the car for about five minutes and then returned. "Well?' Kitchener asked. "It's no good for your purpose," Captain Bentley said. "You can't take It off a road." "Exactly,," said Lord Kitchener. "My own opinion. Now, can you design me one of the right type? It's urgent. Let me have It tomorrow." Captain Bentley, It might be menpioneers of motioned, was one tor transport. He had driven automobiles in sandy wastes, and had devoted considerable time to the attempt to develop types of motor vehicles suitable to rough and virgin country. He went home to' work out the Idea of the caterpillar tractor as it would be applied to an armored car. On the evening of October 22, Captain Bentley went to Lord Kitchener's house In Carlton Gardens. At the end of three hours the two men, according to Captain Bentley, had agreed upon the basic principles of the tank. At the close of the interview, Captain Bentley mentioned that he proposed to go at once to the patent office and register his design. "Wait," Lord Kitchener said. "Are you satisfied to leave this In my hands? ril look after you." Finds Kitchener Is Dead. , Captain Bentley agreed. The next week, however, he left for service In Russia. Upon his return to England, he was almost Immediately recommls-slone- d and sent to German East Africa with the mechanical transport service. Here he was wounded, finally return; ing to England in 1917. Until this time he did not know that the Invention, which by then was known as the "tank," had ever been utilized. What he did know, however, was that Lord Kitchener had been drowned in June, 1916, and could not give his version of the tank's origin,. Desirous of knowing the- official view of the matter, Captain Bentley had a question asked In parliament The answer gave the credit for the invention, of the tank to Winston Churchill, January 5, 1915, a date which, If Captain Bentley's claims be verified, was about two and a half months after the Kitchener interview. of-th- e -- -- . 80-mi- le a Washington Out of Plaee.
