Monmouth and Galesburg with this
city was back on its regular schedule
yesterday and a large number of pas
scngers and a considerable quantity
of freight and coal were transferred.
In fact, in addition to the regular
routine service, 25 carloads OF coal
we're brought TO Rock Island. The road
officials and men are glad of the har-
mony which now exists on the line.

Seven Of the freight handlers resign

and swore. One week later, when the
weather man acceded TO his wishes

accompanying fshy atmosphere, he
put his feet in the oven and ordered
his wife 10 poke up the fire. Such
dinged weather. he asserted, had never
been seen befoTe-hOt as a baked po-
