i t. a. of Regenerating Efforts of Peas-'ants Restore Flanders Fields. Belgians, Working to Rebuild Homes and Salvage Barren Lands, Aided by Loans of Motors. Brussels.

"No Man's Lund" again belongs to the brave Belgian peasants, an apparent miracle having been wrought In Flanders fields by these courageous people, who, with the help of the Belgian government, have re gained the ground which once seemed devastated beyond rehabilitation. Not satisfied with the deaths of soldiers, murders of' women and children and devastation of cities, the German Invaders sought to wipe out nature entirely, but their efforts were in vain. On the very places where, two years ago, the armies were rushing to liberate Belgium, and where the sea waters, receding uncovered grinning skeletons of German soldiers, burled in the mud of the Vser river banks, wheat and barley, corn and potatoes, flowers and young apple trees ure now flourishing. For two years the Belgian peasants lived In huts, the ruins of their homes, or In German concrete shelters, suffering untold hardships In whiter, but imbued with the spirit of regeneration. They worked to remove I he barbed wire and unexploded shells, and many of them lost their lives when the plow met some burled shell.

But perseverance won. From 313.0(H) souls in I'M! the population dwindled to nothing in ll18, and back to lSH.OOO in l'J19. There Is now a population of The ministry of agriculture, under the management of Baron Kuzotte and bis staff of specialists, with M. Boer-enboom at their head, organized the relief work. Motor tractors were naned by the government The fields, soaked with sea salt, were revived with chalk and chemicals, and ders awakened from her deadly sleep and is again bright with vegetation The farms are bigger than ever before, and the concrete shelters which, two years ago, heard the German otlicers yelling to the unfortunate soldiers, "schweinhunde," now hear the grunting of little pigs, for the thrifty Flem ish peasants have turned to account all of the salvaged Implements of warfare which could be used.

Here and there are sacred spots, bright with bloody poppies, marking the final resting places of the brave Belgiau, French, 'British and American soldiers, untouched by the regenerating hands of the Flemish workers. BILLION AND HALF IN GOLD There is fifteen hundred million dollars' worth of gold In a building In Wall street, New York. The building is ''the United States assay office, adjoining the sub-treasury, and there are approximately 250 tons of pure gold piled In bars and ranged In sacks of coin In the vaults. The gold in this one federal building Is about one-fifth of the world's supply of the precious metal, and Is by far the greatest amount of gold ever gathered In one place or one city. The flood of yellow metal that has gushed Into the bullying since the war has come from every corner of the earth, and every week this horde of gold Is increased by many millions.

Almost every trans-Atlantic liner brings more of it, and no one kuows when the flood will recede. All foreign coins received are melted Into bars and these bars are numbered, tagged, tabulated and ready for shipment should the call come. The picture shows a workman removing gold from an anode. Not a grain Is lost. Deposit of Stone Age, Man's Leavings Found Mixnity, Austria.

VICTIM IS ALIVE Missourlan Meets Man He Thought He Had Killed in Quarrel 14 Years Ago.

LIVES IN PERPETUAL TERROR Man Falls From Train During Fight Which Resulted From Disagree- ment Over Dice Game and Antagonist Thought Him Dead. Kansas City, Mo. Reuben B.

The Iptler received bv Mr. Shatzer was signed with a strange name, Harry Thomas. It contained this story of 1he disappearance of the new name: In Perpetual Torment. For 14 years Hall, under the name of Harry K. Thomas of Denver, bus quaked at the sight of a police oltlcer.

He has avoided all persons he knew when he was Hall. He has spent wake ful fearing arrest tor murder. A wife and then a child served to add to his anxieties. What, if they should discover he had killed a man? But the worry Is over. Thomas was walking recently on a Denver street He met the man for whose murder he believed he was hunted, the letter states.

The two recognized each olher at the same time. The "murdered" man held out his hand In greeting. "I thought I killed you," Thomas gasped. 'Land, no," the "victim" ropflert. "I was only bruised a little.1 In the 14 years since his ance Hall's family has mourned him as dead.

Relatives after a diligent search, took steps to collect his Insur ance, but lacking proof of death, were unable to do so. Of what happened after Hall, with $175 In wages, left the harvest news the letter has this to say: 'I got into a dice game. I won $750. One of the heavy losers was John Williamson. He and 1 fought over the game, then patched up our differences.

Friendly, we climbed Into a box car to go to Kansas Llty. we uuuneiieu again, fought, and Williamson fell from the train In the fight. Not Guilty of Murder. 'The next day 1 rend In a paper that the body of an unidentified man had been found on the railroad right of way. I was not guilty of murder, but to prove It was a different thing.

Others had seen us quarrel. "I went West, changed my name to Thomas and grew up with the country Finally I settled in Denver, was married and now have a daughter six years old. "You cannot Imagine the relief now Williamson went home with me, and we told my wife and daughter. 1 am the happiest man hi the country. We are coming to see you and all the rest of the folks right away.
