Moved Pole and Wires.

Moving an electric-light pole. with
 its burden of wires, was the feat ac- complished recently by Cleveland H. luminating company, which is regard ed as novel from several standpoints. In adding five feet to the width of St. Claire avenue 1t was decided to move the curb on each side of the street back two and one-half feet. but for part of the way the difficulty was in- creased by the presence of pipe just inside of the curb, This was over come by the use of an electric truck of three and one-half tons capacity supplied with three-horsepower mo- tor and winch, which is ordinarily used for drawing wires through the conduits. This outfit was backed up to a distance of two and one-haf feet from the curb and the pole secured
 by a chain near the ground. The pole and it's load of wires then was raised and the truck backed to the curb and
 the pole lowered into it's new loca- ton. This was done in many in. stances without any mishap.

 After dinner, then, since you know some of his haunts. There is a re- ward"
 Jones laughed shortly. Keep 1t yourself, sir. MT. Hargreave would willingly double whatever this reward is to eliminate these despicable crea- lures from his affairs"
 Thanks"
 While this conversation was taking place Norton idled about: and feeling the cravings for a cigarette, prepared to roll one, only to find that he hadn't the "makings.''. So fate urged him to step into the nearest tobacconists. He asked for his favorite brand and passed over the silver. Braine and his companions saw Nor | ton enter the shop. It agreed with their plans perfectly. The tobacconist happened to be affiliated with the or der. So they hurried into the shop. Jim instantly realized that he was in a trap.
 How can I get out of here?" he whispered to the tobacconist.
 The latter smiled. T have to obey these gentlemen. I don't know what they want you for; but If I made move to help you should find my own throat cut without saving yours.
 "The devil,'
 Jim made a dash for the rear door, to find it locked. Even as he fumbled with the key, Braine and his com panions flung themselves upon the re- porter and overpowered him.
 "Ah, my friend Braine!" he said.
 My friend Norton," jeered the vic tor.
 And what do you want; some peaches?"
 "A paper. my friend, a little secret of paper with invisible writing on 1t, We promise to give you something in exchange for it."
 "What?" asked Jim with as much nonchalance as he could assume.

 The cigarette glowed. Jim smoked hurriedly
 Through every pocket they went The contents of his wallet lay scat tered at his feet; his watch dangled from the chain The cigarette grew shorter and shorter. Suddenly one of the men stretched out hand and whisked the cigarette from Jim's lips

One bite, after a given time, will do the trick. If they suspect and throw them out We have lost nothing but the peaches. A trusted messenger will carry them to the Hargreave house. And then we'll sit down and wait"
 Meantime, in the library of the liar greave house, Florence and Jim were puzzling over the blank sheet of pa per-

 Susan puttered about for a few min utes longer, then crossed to the recep- tion room. intending to go upstairs. At that moment the maid was ad- hitting messenger with a basket of fruit.

Congressman G. N. Haugen, OF
Iowa: The Underwood bill was
passed for the purpose of reducing
prices to the consumer in conformity
with the declaration in the platform
Of the Democratic party to aid the
consumer In buying at lower price.
In order to carry out the Democratic
policy the president sent DR.. Melvin
to South America to make 1t easier
for them to export cattle to this
country, and to provide for regula-
tons making 1t possible for the peo-
pie of South America to export beef
cattle to America. They got along
gwimmingly, and the livestock pro-
ducers of this country were on the
highway to bankruptcy.
But war broke out and the pro-
gram was interfered with. As a re-
suit the shipments were diverted
from the United States to the war
zone, and since then the price OF
stock here has been thoroughly salts.
