GAN 7 Put SEALS
FRONT Of XMAS
PACKAGE IN MAIL
OFFICE WILL NOT TAKE PARCELS
POORLY WRAPPED.

Special instructions as to how pack
ages much and must not be received
for transportation by parcel post dur
ing the Christmas rush were received
this morning by Postmaster d. F.
Davenport, in the daily bulletin of or
ders issued by the Postoffice Depart
ment at Washington.
Special stress was laid on the fact
that Red Cross Christmas seals must
not be placed on the fronts of letters
or pockages and it was stated that if
the seals are to be placed on pack
ages they must not be SO applied as
to seal the packages. Packages that
are sealed by the stamps will be con-
sidered first class matter and will re-
ouire additional postage.
Postmaster Davenport was advised
that postoffices all over the country
were holding mail on which these
Christmas seals had been improperly
placed.
Another important. feature of the
order is the fact that postmasters will
not be allowed under on circum-
stances to accept packages which are
not properly wrapped. This order was
issued because of the numerous in
stances in which ppstmasters have
accepted packages improperly wrap
ped when the shippers declared that
bility of the risk.

one morning when they boarded his
train at Lumpkin, en- route to Mont
gomery. On arrival there he notified
the police and assisted them in run

PAYS PENALTY FOR
PROMOTING PLOT TO
MAKE BOHEMIA FREE
(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, Dec. 14.-That a well-or-
ganized plan to overthrow the gov
ernment of Bohemia and establish an
independent kingdom there, has been
launched, was discovered here today
when Copenhagen dispatches brought
the news that the plot had been un-
covered and one Of hte leaders SEN
tenced to pay the death penalty.
The dispatch states that a Czech
resident of Prague had been caught in
the act of writing to Czech union of
Chicago. The letter was discriminating
in itself and was considered enough
to sentence the man. The prisoner re-
fused to talk, and the authorities were
unable to get at the bottom of the
plot.

LONDON, Dec. 14.--It was officially
announced here this morning by the
admiralty that the Turkish battleship
Messudith was sunk in the Darda-
nelles yesterday by British subma-
rine. The big warship was destroyed
by torpedo from the submarine.
In sinking the Messudith the little
submarine displayed a recklessness
that has not been equalled so far in
this war She dived under five rows
of floating mines which protected the
battleship and discharged her torpe-
do while still under water. Then, de-
spite combined attack from two tor
pedo boats and the Turkish forts
ashore, the little submarine dived
under the mines again and made her
escape.
The Messudith was an old ship, al
most out Of date She was badly dam
aged during the late war with Greece,
but carried full crew Of six hun
dred. The name of the submarine has
not yet been made public.
