FRANK PARKER STOCkBRIDGE in the Worlds Work for
June asks why we haven't got the Parcels Post Mr. Wanamaker,
more than twenty years ago. answered that question He said. in one
of his reports as Postmaster General, that there were four reasons
why we did not have the Parcels Post-the Adams Express Company.
the American Express Company the American ExpressCompany, the
United States Express Company and Wells, Fargo & Companys EN-
press. With ten express companies o doing business, a against
four then, there would seen to be a multiplicity OF reasons AGAINST
the Parcels Post In the light Of the recent Investigations by the
Interstate Commerce Commission however. Mr.. Wanamakers four
reasons have become arguments for rather than against the Parcels
Post For instance. the investigators found from the companies W

the Adams Express Company amounting to SGl97, and by the

Making the Desert Bloom

RETURNING delegates from Falon are enthused with the va!
that section OF Nevada is going ahead. This is a place where the
people by hard work are making the desert bloom. Sane dunes are
leveed, water is applied and the result is crops and a profitable farm
1t is such fort that is needed throughout Nevada
The reclamation OF the soils OF Churchill County left such al I'M
preston that it will lnger in the minds of the many who were
strangers in this reclamation section OF the world. Had it been stated
twenty years o ter years ago that such transformation OF a desert
would come to pass, the statement would have been dicredied and
the remarks passed as dreams.
Out OF the white sands there has sprung a city, a place where men
carry on business, where homes re created and where there is an yer
lasting future. 1t undoubtedly did the visitors a vat amount OF good
to visit the reclamation district of Nevada, as the good word has been
spread around and Nevada Gets a boost within her bounds. Falon
has a future that is recognized and many a farm that is in the making
will mean homes and fortune to those who have stuck. Nevada re
spends to those who expend the effort and it is proof positive at Fl-
lon and the surrounding section.

ARREST THIEF
IN SOUTH RIVER
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the NEW6-
South River, August 6.-Mike Du-
Irowitch, of Upper Whitehead avenue,
| who is employed by the Michelin
Tire Co., of Midtown, was arrested
last night by Officer Offenberger on
a charge of robbery. Mr.. Durowitch
and his family expected to sail for
Europe this week and had their be-
longings packed up in large trunks.
For several months Supt. Young of
the Michelin works has reported that
much inner fabric of tires has been
missing. Actions Of the arrested
man made the superintendent sus-
picious and the family of Mr.. Duro-
witch have been traced. When 1t
was announced that the family would
sail to Europe, the public officials
got busy and the large trunks in
which the Clothes were packed,
caused the suspicion that caused ar
rest.
When Superintendent Young went
to Mr.. Durowitch's home last night
to verify his suspicious, he brought
Patrolman Offenberger and Mayor
Mark. When the trunks were open
ed, several hundreds of yards of in
ner fabric Of tires, which Is expen-
sive, was found in the trunks. Mr..
DuroWitch had drawn $500 out Of a
local bank yesterday and the family
expected to leave this week. The
signs of prosperity probably was the
cause of suspicion

is GUILTY OF
RECKLESSNESS
Elizabeth AutOist Has Hear
inu--Decision Reserved.

John Koenigsreuter, of Elizabeth,
secretary to the secretary of the
United States Steel Corporation,
whose Overland touring a rammed
a rig of the Perth Amboy City Mar
ket at Smith and Prospect streets
Sunday afternoon, was found guilty
of reckless driving and decision on
the extent of penalty was reserved
last night by Recorder Kehoe. The
hearing consumed an hour and in
volved many technical points in the
accident.
Witnesses for the state held that
Koenigsreuter was speeding and
drove his automobile so recklessly
across Smith street that it hit the
Perth Apboy City Market horse and
threw it over. The defense was that
the machine was not going fast, but
was travelling slowly behind a Hup-
mobile and that William Shumsky
drove the horse directly into the au-
tomobile, causing the horses head to
hit Miss Elizabeth Koenigsreuter,
sister of the defendant. Stephen F.
Somogyi appeared in the place of
City Attorney c. c. Hommann and
Mr.. Bennett for the defendant.
William Shumsky testified that
the automobile was going at least
twenty mile" an hour and struck the
rig. Miss Sarah Shumsky said she
knew little about the speed Of auto
mobiles, but declared it was positive
ly going faster than fifteen miles an
hour and perhaps twenty-five miles
an hour. Title Shumsky says the
auto hit the rig In which she was
riding, but declared she did not
know how fast it was going. PATROL
mar Chris Hanson said the machine
was being driven fast and recklessly
as was evinced by the fact that 1t
did not stop until fully 800 feet be-
yond the scene of the accident.
John Koenigsreuter, his mother
and sister, who were in the machine
at the time of the accident, testified
that the auto was being driven slow
ly at the time because they always
had it run slowly through cities and
because they were following a Hup-
mobile. Chief of Police Burke and
Lawyer Somogyi brought out the
facts from the testimony that the de-
PENDANT had Tapped the Hupmobile
and was going fast in an endeavor to
pass the smaller machine.
