The wheel responded so well to the pressure of Weasel's foot on its base that the. partners, made money fast until an angry loser broke It to bits and hurled It over a fence. Stones.iew, and Weasel, clutching his coin pocket to keep it from spilling, raced out of the grounds ahead of a wild crowd. The thick headed person who.

The big balloon, scheduled to make Its flight In the evening, broke away and the crowd forgot its anger as it turned to look at the bag' which wobbled upwards spilling clouds of smoke.

Pitch-' fork, who had cut the rope, sped away to find Weasel. In their room they piled the money In two stacks, rolled their packs and prepared to depart. "They'll come here and get us," said Weasel, shaking with fear. "By gar, they almost got me!" Then came a sudden whiff and bang. The center of the floor lifted and cracked, Stovepipes fell, glass shattered and the frame building rocked.

Out of the smoke and dust leaped Pitchfork and Weasel, leaving money and packs behind. Blackened with soot but pale to the heart, they ran down an alley, climbed fences and made their way out of town. As they washed In a creek some time later Weasel ventured: "Who would have thought those hicks would be so vicious? They ain't like any I ever worked with before."

I Khortly after my ihusband had left, the rebels commenced a terri-! fie bombardment of the palace. For carrying, and in the resulting scramble among: themselves, permitted us to escape. I fled down a dark alley. Dead lay everywhere. I stumbled over corpses of people horribly, killed by shellfire.

I slipped in pools of blood. Finally I reached the countryside, my guards still beside me. Just as we thought we were safe, These are the low sale prices: 5.95 7.95 12.95 an enemy patrol approached. A heap of dead bodies lay near. Mv guards ordered me to lie down and feign death.

I threw myself onto the pile of dead and lay there. The every-Jay ginghams ee Alameda thirty minutes shells shrieked to-wrml us, bursting all about the building. Many took effect. One shell passed through my bathroom and wrecked part of the palace. The enemy positions were on a hillside overlooking the house and also commanding the bridge connecting the house with Sun Yat Sen's offices.

This bridge, a third of a mile long, was constantly under fire. My bodyguard was bravery itself. Hocauso of tho darkness, they with-1 held their fire and sought to beat off attackers who came to grips with them. My house boy fearlessly patrol passed without looking. Hours later I reached a farm house, where I obtained a coolie woman's dress and escaped to the WEASKL FLINT and Pitch-fork Thompson entered Warner8Ville -quietly and left with a bang.

Among the few definite purposes of their unchartered ways is one never to return. "There are times," Weasel put it, "when enough may be considerably more than a sufficiency," The two walked Into Warners-vllle at the time of the county fair. Their assets included 30 cents and an appetite. On the little i hill overlooking the town, Weasel and Pitchfork laid out their campaign "You find a brick," ordered Titchfork, "and I "will go buy the coal oil. I guess that is about as strong as we can start." Weasel nodded with understanding and the two separated, Pitchfork "taking the.

30 cents Into town. An hour later, with his wares displayed on a box, Pitchfork Thompson held an outside prowd of fair visitors by the power of his lungs and the marvels of the magic pink Anti-Combustion powder that he was telling. "With this scientific preparation," he said, "with Just one pinch of it, it Is within the power of each and every one of you to protect his home arid his loved ones. Read the papers, gasp at the accident lists, and what do you find? Lamps blowing uj right and left, roofs going off when Mary Ann pours coal oil In tho stove, 511 Injured each month, 17 dead each week, and It can all be prevented." PITCHFORK dropped some of the powder irito a cup of kerosen'e and dipped a flaming match in the liquid, exclaiming in triumph when the match was extinguished. Business became brisk and by night the two men had more than 8.

"It is about time," Weasel suggested, "to in for something bigger. Besides, some wise guy iriay come along and show us up." For, with brick dust or not, a man may put up a lighted match In an open can of kerosene without fearing the consequences. Next day it was a shell game, moved Inside the fair grounds on the strength ot-the increased capital, and the profits were larger. "And that is that," remarked Pitchfork with finality as -they counted $40 in the room they had rented over a small store which also served as living quarters for its owner. "Maybe we were a bit too self-interested.

Those fellows are getting touchy and ready to run us out."

It was decided that Sun Sen's aide-de-camp, Colonel George Bow, and two guards, should accompany me across this narrow path to possible wifely, and that the rest should remain to face certain death and worse if captured, to enable us to escape.

Smith today, during the hearing of the plea of 21 -year-old George Elliott for probation.

Smith convulsed Superior Judge Church's courtroom with his answer when the Judge asked him how Elliott had behaved on the steamer trip from San Diego, where he was arrested. "I don't know exactly," said Smith, "as I was seasick- from the time we left San Diego' till we reached San (Francisco." Elliott, who pleaded guilty of having stolen an automobile, was given five years probation. AL1)K. In Alameda, 27. 1922..
