His Celebration
By JAMES HAZEN
(Copyright, 11V«. by R. B. McClure.]
UGH COVINGTON sat on the
Imuk slaps and watched the
rockets ind bombs rise above
the tree; from Powers grove
and thought mi lerably of what a dif
ferent Fourth of July he hud antici
pated.
It was to have been one of the old
fashioned Green vale celebrations. Tbe
lire company would parade In the
morning, and by noon they would all
be at the gro re. Squire Kinsman
would have mai e the opening addrees
and would have Introduced Hugh as
"our rising young attorney," and be
had liked to thli k how a little whisper
would run through the crowd aa Jm
rose to rend the Declaration of Inde
pendence, for It was known that he
was soon to become the old squire's
son-in law, and this linking of names
on the platform would have set
tongues clacking.
Then there would have been the pic
nic dinner, the boa'Ing on the lake, the
stroll through the woods with Dorothy, |

the afternoon, while In the evening 9400
worth of flreworka were to be aet off
from a float anchored In the lake, and
™ild he a concert by the cornet
band.
It oèemed to Hugh aa If he, of all the
town, had remained at home. Acroea
the square Harvey Dwigbt waa mak
ing up the mall In the tiny poatofflee,
and Rem Vincent waa waiting to take
the alngle bag up to the atatlou. Of
coutae Turner, the atatlon agent, waa
at hla poet, but the reat were at the
grove and bad been moat of the day.
Rem Vincent rame over and aat down
on the steps beside him. "Goln' out to
the groveT' he asked enviously.
"»wight's goln' as soon as he g cts the
UMMl KllAue Up.
"Not me." aald*Htigh. «I like an old
fashioned Fourth."
A gleam of hope sprang Into Vin
cent's eyes. "Say," be begged, "will
yon take the bag to the station? It
ain't heavy, Just a few iettera, and I
can get ont to the grove with Dwight.
All the good stuff Is on the float. Them
rockets Just tempt you out. Htpple
bet he'd have the whole town out at
the grove, and he'a done It."
"Go ahead," aald Hugh. "I'll tell
Dwight." And be watched Rem make
off down the street. Somehow hla
words kept ringing through bla hand.
Why should Hippie want to get the
whole town to the grove? Waa It pride
or waa there some other reason?
I As If In answer there came a muf
fled exploeton, and the atep on which
be was sitting shook slightly. That
mast bave been a big bomb. Hugh look
«d up, but the sky at that moment
lighted only by the stars.
wag next the bank co U id t he whole
selebratlon bave been arranged to get
was
-
the people out of town so that a raid
might be made at the bank? Hippie
had announced that the beat thing of
the day would be the set piece. This
was to be fired at H o'clock. The train
went through at 11. He had read of
. auch ach« mes.
There waa no way of getting Into the
j bank, and no watchman waa employ
! ed. The solitary police officer parading
the square was thought sufficient, and
tonight oven be waa out at the grove.
The*» waa one tiny window at the
rear, and to this Hugh made hla way.
He almost betrayed himself by a cry
aa be glanced In.
The vaults of the bank were In the
cellar to save the expense of building
a pier to raise the structure to tbe
street level. In the wall on the store
side was a breach, and on the floor lay
the -doors to the vault, blown off with
dynamite. Three men were working
over the contents of the safe, storing
suit cases with the sfsill, and from the
leisurely fashion In which they worked
Hugh was satisfied that they Intended
to take tbe train.
If anything were done It must be
done without much assistance, for the
people were all out of town. Dwight
would be of little nse. He might get
help at the station. He brushed the
dirt front his knees and strolled over
to the postofflee. Dwight was standing
In the doorway.
"Drat that Rem Vincent," be scolded.
"Been him, Hugh?"
"Gone to the grove," explained Hugh.
"1 told him I'd take the bag up to the
station and see that It got on board all
right."
"Jump In, and I'll drive you round
that Vay," offered the postmaster.
Hugh shook his bead.
"I want to use tbe phone a moment,"
ho said. "You hurry up. They've been
at It almost an hour now."
Dwigbt unlocked the door and Jump
ed Into the buggy. "It's a spring lock,"
lie explained. "Be sure and shut It
when you're through. Glddapt" And
the buggy sped off down the road Vin
cent had taken.
Hugh called up the station and chat
ted for a moment, then ho hung up the
receiver and flattened his face against
the front window.
It was an hour before the three men
emerged from the store and carefully
locked It after them. They set out up
the street, and Hugh, shouldering the
mall bag, started after them.
They turned at the sound of atopa,
but tbe sight of the mall bag reassured
them, and they went on. The bag waa
an excuse for Hugh to take It easy, and
he kept them In sight until they en
tered the station. He aet the mall bag
on the baggage truck and went Inside
after the men. Turner nodded to him
aa be entered, and with a sigh relief
Hugh sank Into a seat In tbe corner.
Presently Button, the baggagemas
ter, came In and approached Hugh.
Apparently he had been drinking, and
they were soon In wordy warfare that
presently passed to blows. Button
drew a pistol, and Turner came out of
Ills office with another weapon. But
ton, suddenly recovering, faced the
three men with Turner and held their
hands np while Hugh bound them.

Tha Spell Cast by Japan's
Con« of Ptarl.
Other mountains may be painted
! w ith some fair degree of truth and
i j us tice — even the beautiful Jung
f rau — but not so Fuji. Its loveli
ness is so delicate and its mood» s-o
ever changing and evanescent that.

most he can ever ope . D ■,
f The spell cast
Ä softnTs., grace and symmetry
J that match l eB8 cone of pearl float
ing in the sky is far beyond his
reach. . .
Every nature worshiper visiting
Japan has fallen in adoration at the
foot of Fuji, and foreign writers and
poets have followed their Japanese
brothers in vainly attempting to de
scribe the feelings with which they
have been inspired.
Who that has seen the snow clad
crest gleaming so white and pure
against the deep blue of the winter
sky will not admit that the moun
tain is worthy of all the praise that
has been bestowed upon it, and
more.
It is not only the physical charms
of the mountain that cast so power
ful a spell, though they alone would
make of Fuji an object of homage
to every lover of the beautiful in
any land on earth, but it is also the
wondrous web of legend spun around
snowy peak that is as charming
and full of delightful mystery and
sentiment as the moods of its beau
ty are capricious and fitful—a deli
cious combination that marks Fuji
as unique among all the mountains
of the earth.
Fuji is a dormant volcano—an
isolated cone, tapering from a cir
cumference of about a hundred
miles at its base to but a fortieth
rt of that distance at the summit,
cannot be accounted extinct, for
at the eastern side of the mountain
top the ash is very hot in places, tes
tifying to the presence of fissures
leading to the fires below, which
may at any time burst forth again.
Tradition tells us that Fuji rose
from the earth in a single night,
while simultaneously a grea*t de
pression appeared in the eerth, HO
miles away to the southwest, which
is now filled with the waters of Lake
Biwa.
Geologists say that Fuji is but a
young volcano, not yet having de
stroyed its beauty by bursting the
crater rim—a fate that usually
takes mountains of this nature
er or later.—Herbert G. Ponting iu
Metropolitan Magazine.
Why Foam on Ink la White.

"How white the foam is!" said

by the sable stole drawn across her

But the young sophomore laugh

A body that reflects all the light
it receives without absorbing any is
always white. All bodies powdered
into tiny diamond form, so that,
they throw back the light from'
many facets, absorb none of it and
are white by consequence. Pow- '
dered black marble, for instance, is
white. And foam is water powder
ed into these small diamonds, and
hence its whiteness." — Cincinnati
