It reached tlio American Red Cross.
In the spring n trnln loaded with ty

carried In addition to tho typhus the
dreaded spotted fever and cholera.
Word of tho presence of this train
on the main lino between Irkutsk and
Vladivostok reached American Ited
Cross headquarters In the latter city
a few weeks ago, and preparations
were started Immediately to succor
what survivors there might be of the
callous cruelty theso stricken soldiers
of tho Kolchak army had been sub
jected to. Major IUlcy Allen, execu

Cross In Siberia, who Is. only just re

tho dcntli train, going out with It. Dr.

who has also been Inld low with ty

nurses and aids. "

The death train, they had last heard,
was nt Nlkolsk on August 27, where
the Russian authorities had Mmply
passed It on. an all other Russian of

weeks. Just befor'o tho train reached
Nlkolsk tho doctor aboard It had died
of choloro. Seven of tho 1G0 sick who
h(ld survived to 'reach Nlkolsk died
the next day. Their bodies were
dumped out of tho moving train by
wrecks of men who had not tho
strength to dig graves, even If they
might have had tho Inclination. As

bodies, crawling with typhus llco and

Tho Red Cross train caught up to
tho death train nt Rnzdolne, whero It

WONDERING OVER

Plymouth, Mass. With tho three

of tho Pilgrim Fathers little moro

er "tho tercentenary celebration" of
the great event Is going to ho held In

In the bay, and whore most note
worthy fnct of all had been written
nnd signed in the cabin of tho May
flower what Is known to tlio world ns
the first purely democratic govern
ment over produced, the Mayflower
compact guaranteeing to dwellers un
der tho Pilgrim government cnual
rights of living and being, no matter
what their standing may have been
in the past or what it might be in
tho future. The compact was signed
on November 11, 1G20, just 209 years
to a day before the date of the sign
ing of another great democratic doc
trine, tho armistice of the world war
to make tho world safe for democ
racy. History tells us that tho date of
tho landing of tho Pilgrims at
Provlncetown nnd tho dnto of the
compact is November 21. Tho discrep
ancy is due to tho ten days' difference
between old stylo tlmo nnd new stylo
tlmo. It; was Just ono month later,
December 11, old stylo, or December
21, new style, thnt the Mayflower
poked her nose around Duxbury Point
nnd headed for tho shore.
Tho tercentenary celebration must
bo held in Plymouth, say tho ndher
ehts of tho mnlnland towns bocausi
besides being tho historically ac
curate place whero tho Pilgrims
fought their light against annihilation
nnd destruction, it is more easily ac
cessible and nil around better suited
In every way. It has moro to show
the visitors to the celebration, and
has a bigger reputntlon to draw them
to It.
"The celebration must bo held in
Provlncetown," sny the dwellers in
tho Cnpo Cod claimant to tho honor,
"because this Is tho true landing
place of tho Pilgrim Fathers. Ilerc
they terminated tho tcrrlblo wintry

water and fresh food at tho end of

pact under which they governed tho

now stnnds tho Pilgrims' Memorial
monument, thnt they first saw the
mnlnland, nnd It wns hero they spent
a month of recuperation before press
ing ahead to the West. And we hnve
the monument to prove our clnlin."
Whether tho celebration will bo held
here In Plymouth or In Provlncetown,
or whether it will bo held nt all, are
still moot questions, and perhaps
tho latter possibility Is tho best solu
tion of tho problem. There Is still n
year to decide, and some wny may bo

GREAT SECRET OUT AT LAST
Observing Intellect Has Discovered
How the Brain That Names Sleep-
ing Cars Works.
I used to be awed, writes Inobetta,
at the thought of tho intellectuality of
the man who names tlio Pullman cars.
To what storehouse of classical or his
torical loro did this mentality have ac
cess, that he could exhume therefrom
such names names, thnt seemed to
mean something, but yet Just eluded
analysis? I used to think I'd like to
meet that bird.
But I've pegged him at last I lie's
no giant Intellect nt all. lie's Just a
pathological specimen one of these
wrong-foot enses tho medical journals
have been discussing lately, whoso
cerebral or splnnl connections seem to
be crossed. Their handwriting goes
from right to left It's called "mirror
writing." Tholr co-ordlnntlng mechan
ism Is constantly In reverse gear. And
how do I know that the nomenclator
of Pullman cars is ono of these? Sim.

NOW
WILL NOT USE GERMAN DYES
Real Reason Why the Red Trousers
of the French Infantryman
Have Been Discarded.
Tho red trousers of the French army
are to be no moro. There Is'a political
and economical tragedy about It with
which very few people aro familiar.
Tho originator of the red trousers was
Napoleon, who wns prompted In his
"reform" by a desire to help the nn
tlvo cultivation of madder root against
the Dutch nnd Italian rivals.
But then came tho Graebe-Llcber-mnnn
dscovery of tho alizarine dyes,
and in less than ten years, between
1870 and 1878, tho production of mnd
der root In Franco shrank from 25,000
to 500 tons, and then it disappeared.
This was a great German victory. Nev
ertheless, tho army trousers continued
to bo dyed red, only this tlmo tho dyes
had to bo Imported from Germnny.
It evidently required n great war to
put nn end to this humiliation.
An Oversupply.
Tho help problem bothers them In
the Orient also, but in a different way.
A gentleman who had returned from
India remarked. "Tho worst thing
about the place Is tho nuisance of nu
merous servants. Why, when I wns
at Bogglywallnh L had four servants
to look after my pipe alone." '
"Four servants to attend to your
pipe?"
"Yes. The first ono brought it to
me; tho second tilled It; tho third
lit it"
"And tho fourth?"
"Oh, he smoked It. I never could
abide tobacco in any form, you know."
Some men uso all tho material they
have at hand In mnklng fools of them
selves. A certain county of Connecticut
boasts of Its record of having hnd but
two murders In nearly 100 years.
