Craighead broke through by imper-

sincere respect. He went about with
marvellous rapidity, sending away those

with the lady in goggles that the whole
situation was improper. He felt obliged
to keep with Craighead because Of
suspicion that the aeronef was a
fgment of two Slattery institute i'm

let any guilty man escape So he
providently engaged a detective to
shadow both himself and Mr.. Craig

whom in very plain clothes made Mr..
Waddy feel and look guilty and fugi-

His second reason for becoming Mr..
Craighead's double was his sense Of
duty OF preventing that pupil Of DR..

the intoxicants served to Craighead,
somewhat to the injury Of his health,

was a relief to get Craighead back

Annual Report Of Col. E.
N. Weaver on Militia.
Untriend|y Attitude Of Labor
Unions Prevents Efficiency.
Political Influence in Appointment
Of Officers Also hindrance.

Washington Nov. 14.-The hostile
attitude of the labor unions towards
the organized militia has created a
very pessimistic feeling among officers
Of the army and the National Guard.
which is reflected strongly in the an
nual report of Col. E. NJ. Weaver, chief
of the division of militia, to the chief
of staff.
The officers say that it is almost
hopeless to expect any relief from the
present Conditions by the enactment
of state laws or through any national
law that would restrain the unions
from their unfrendly attitude.
The teachings Of patriotism are of
no effect. even where it is shown that
the sole purpose Of the militia is the
maintenance OF law and order, and in
Colonel Viewers opinion the only real
practical solution of the problem lies
III the creation by the other states
of a state cOnstabulary on the lines of
the highly trained and disciplined con-
stabulary Of Pennsylvania to supple
ment the effort of the local police or
constabulary in the repression of dis
order
1t is believed that the labor unions
would then come to look upon the
militia as Il force for national defence
rather than as state police and in

For The Great Darlington,
Mass, Highwaymen.
Booty Now Placed at $4,000
Cash and $4,000 Checks.
The company's Employees Rounded
Up, but No Clue Found.

Great harrington, Mass, Nov. IA
All hope of finding the three bandits
who Saturday held up the paymaster
NJ the NVoronocO Construction Co., and
robbed MIN CT $4,000 in cash and
checks in this immediate vicinity was
abandoned tonight, when after two
DAYS and a half of continued search
the posse reported no trace of the men.
There are tonight absolutely no de-
pendable clue on which to work. The
authorities are now inclined to tht
op:nOn that the men have made good
their escape.
Today there was a roll call Of the la
horrors employed by the company and
no man was found to be missing, and
all denied any knowledge of the holdup
or Of the men concerned.
Further. than the fact that the high
Waymen wore the clothes of working
men and spoke with a foreign accent.
n, description could be obtained from
the three men who were robbed. The
offer of reward of 500 for evidence
resulting in the arrest ana conviction
Of IT," robbers may. it is believed. bring
some clue to the attention of the au-
ilbiilItS II tiitlT present tin'pIN lS tti
rect. namely, that the robbers were
men either now or formerly employed
in the construction of a new electric
car line from this town to E,gremont.
This theory is strengthened by the
statement of the men held up that the
robbers Wore masks made of burlap.
which is found in abundance in the
construction camp. Furthermore, the
lahorers in the construction camp We're
familiar with tine movements of the
pavmaSter.
AnOtherf argument supporting the
theory is derived from the fact that the
highwaymnn fired only one shot and
that was aimed above the heads of the
men robbed, whereas in the case of
most of the robberies that have oc-
Cured in Massachusetts within the
past three years the harditS have shot

ADVICE TO CATHOLICS
As Given BY Pres. Feeney of Fedora
ton of Catholic Societies.

New Orleans. Nov 14.-Protest against
the small number of Roman Catholics
holding federal and state offices. and the
failure of the state to pay for secular
education in Roman Catholic schools
We're the salient heads today in the an
nual report of President Edward Feeney
of Brooklyn, n. V, at the ninth annual
convention of the American Federation
of Catholic Societies.
The Federation has no candidate for
public Office" he said, but it seems that
in proportion to the number of Catholics
under the flag here and in our insular
possessions we have by no means a suffi-
cient representation in the public service
Further, those selected by our govern
ment for responsible public positions
should be real and not nominal Catho-

of the so-called advanced school during

When the drivers. helpers and other
employees of the express companies
who have been striking. reported for

officials objected at first to the wear

men explained, however, that if they
did not wear the buttons they would
be taken for strkebreakers by team
ster and others belonging to other
unions and that trouble would I'M
doubleday result.
The officials appeared to be satisfied
and the men were promptly enrolled.

The attention of the crew was called
to the lights which appeared station

This looked strange and Capt. Ralph

was called from his cabin and inform

He had been a short time on deck
when suddenly many lights appeared
The snip now appeared and could be
seen distinctly as she had lights every
where on her deck.
Capt. Ralph told his crew not to hail
anyone on board nor to make a sound
They We're fast approaching the
lighted ship and got within such dis
tancc as to see forms clad in oil

The strange fact was noticeable that
the schooner had lost her main boom.
While Capt. Ralph and his men We're
looking in awestruck wonder at the
ship, every light suddenly disappeared
and the ocean was cast into darkness.
They were near enough to see ship
if one had existed hut nothing appear
Ell on the sea after the lights had been
eXtinguished.
No one On board could sleep during
the remainder of the night and the
daylight WAS welcomed by all.
