Chicago.-The blacklist page in the
history of organized labor was turned
when a high official of the Interna-
uonal Association of Bridge and
Structural Iron Workers. was arrested
on the charge of having engineered
the dynamiting Of the Los Angeles
Times building last fall.
At almost the same moment the of

treasurer of the union, was arrested

long and disastrous war against the

One of the prisoners in the party
that left Chicago was the mysterious

ing OF the Times building had been
traced and who has been held re-
sponsible by a grand jury for the muir
der OF the twenty-one persons who
persisted in the explosion.
He proved to be none other than
James Mcnamara, brother of the la
Dor official. who for years has been

McNamara.
The other prisoner was n Chicago
man. Ortise E. McManigal. whose home
is at Ala South Sangamon street, and
who is a member of Local 5. OF the
iron workers Chicago branch.
Both men were arrested in Detroit
April 18th. as they were making
ready to destroy the new 100000
railroad terminal there.
Following the arrest of Secretary
Mcnamara In Indianapolis. his private
vault was searched and 100 quarts OF
nitroglycerine were removed.
That John ]. Mcnamara, who is de-
clared to be the brains of the open
shop war. might be taken into custody
at the proper moment. their arrest
was suppressed. They were tricked
into allowing themselves TO be taken
to Chicago from Detroit without legal
resistance and since then have been
held there.
On the way from Detroit. the detec-
tives assert, Mcnamara attempted to
win freedom through bribery. He is
said to have offered first $4,000 and
then 100000 to be allowed to slip off
the train with his companion.
Los Angeles-Labor union circles all
over the country are deeply stirred by
the arrest and hasty extradition from
Ohio of the three Los Angeles sus-
poets. and frequent comparisons of
this case and that of Meyer, Hay
wood and Pettibone in Colorado have
been made by leaders.
Los Angeles authorities, fearing
the suspects or by indignant citizens
in whose memory the horrors Of the
Times explosion remains firmly fixed
are taking great precautions to keep
secret the routes taken by the prison
ers and their guards and the time of
their arrival on the coast.
Further evidence, said to be con-
vincing beyond possible doubt. has
been unearthed by Detective William
J. Burns and indianapolis officers.

to develop and the amount of dam
age from winter killing will begin to
appear In the yellow wheat plants.
Severe storms will suddenly form
near March 20 and will increase in
force near March 27. About that time
all should have in mind those danger
GUS storms that sometimes visit the
Mississippi valleys in March. Sum
spots will form about March q, but
will not come into view on the eastern
side of the sun till about March 80.
The next bulletin will give general
forecasts of April crop weather, the
most important month for winter
wheat Great anxiety exists through
out all the middle west. The drought
Of 1910 causes fears for 1911 and even
the big spectators are guessing. A
partial failure of 1910 crops would
cause prices Of farm products to almost
double, Producers should always keep
a reserve of grain and other feed stuff
till they have some assurance as to
what the next crop will be.
Electricity concerns every human
being who has a mind capable Of
thinking. Some people are so low
down in the scale OF animal life as
to never think Of the Importance of
sun light and sun energies. A less
number contemplate the Importance
Of that element known by the general
name Of electricity. The human race
is just awakening to its Importance.
Every breath we draw is for the pur-
pose OF extracting electricity from the
oxygen of the atmosphere. sending that
electricity into the arteries where its
pulsations carry the blood through the
body and cause the heartbeats. The
force of life comes from the atmos-
phere and passes through the animal
machine operating 1t as water operates
the mill.
The food we eat Is transposed into
electricity that in some way joins that
which comes from the atmosphere in
furnishing force to operate the body.

Electricity is the life force of both

Cattle Killed by lightning

News reaches Tazewell that 8 head
of cattle were killed by lightning
during the storm on Monday morning,
on Pat Crockett's farm near Wittens
Mills. There were three 2-year olds,
2 heifers, 2 cows and one yearling.
The cattle were all piled up together.
One of the cows belonged to ten
ant.
1t is reported also that Geo. W.
st. Clair. of this town, lost fine
Jersy heifer in the same manner. The
eight head of cattle killed near Wit
tens Mills were under a wild cherry
tree. The loss of cattle in this county
every year by lightning, is heavy. II
would seem to be wise to cut dowr
the trees in the pastures, particular
ly if there is skirt of WOO DIS in the
field. There are few. if any instances
of cattle being killed in the woods, =
always under single tree, standing
alone in the pasture.

Storm in Augusta

Last Mondays Staunton Leader
gives graphic account of fearful
and destructive storm of wind, hail
and rain, which struck the city about
d 80 O'Clock last Sunday afternoon,
doing great damage to property in
the city and county. The storm, says
the Leader, extended over an area of
about z by 80 miles in extent, doing
not less than million dollars damage
to crops and buildings. Live stock
were killed in several localities. No
loss of life occurred, but evidently q
large number of people were scared
out Of more than years growth.
