OAKLAND, Dec. LA package containing six sticks of dynamite, equipped with caps and fuses. was found today by an Italian fishermap under bridge over Alhambra creek short distance west of Martinez, which carries the main line tracks of the Southern Pacific railroad Over this bridge pass trains carrying the output of the Herculet Powder Com pany, and of the Standard Oil Com Pany, to the east.
 News of the find was conveyed at once to officials of the Southern Pac- fife and to Sheriff R. R. Neale of Contracosta county, at Martinez. who combined in the formation of parties of officers who began a search of the region for similar packages, which it was feared might have been placed under others of the numerous bridges and culverts.

OLD GODS
Along with the People Of Buko-.
VIVA Are Exiles, Accord
ing to Legend.

WASHINGTON. d. c., Feb. 49,
The following, statement concerning
the province OF Bukowina the neighbor
OF Galtcia in the Austro-f1ungarian
empire, which has been figuring in the
war news recently was prepared by
the National Geographic Society:
Legend has 1t that the old gods are
liz exile in Bukowina. Crowded from
their temples in Greece and in Italy
and from their halls on Olympus, they
fed to the raw mountain forests Of
Bukowina. where they have since led
sadly impoverished lives with no obla-
tons, no hecatonibs, no incense, no
notice, with nothing but bleak, lone
some beech forests and rocky noun
tain sides. However true this may be
in the case OF the gods, it is true in
the case OF the people Of Bukowina
that most of them went there in exile.
They are the Rnlthenian and Rouman-
an tribes who were crowded .ut in
the bitter struggles through which
Europe came to its present apportion-
ment. They, like their neighbors the
exiled gods, lead lean existences in
the small, mountainous forest land
which lies on the outskirts Of every
thing.
