The Earthquake.

Since the luminous hands and eyes
had appeared in the corner of Leon
tines room for the second time, Sc
bastian had ceased to persecute her.
Ostensibly they lived amicably to-
gether, yet Sebustian's heart was for
ever filled with gnawing jealousy of
the dead Jerry. who still, as he well
knew, possessed the soul of the woman
who was his wife in name alone.
He had expected that the deadlock
of this difficult situation would be
broken long before. But the phenome-
non of the burning eyes. which Sebas-
tian attributed to the supernatural,
had shocked and stunned him. Then
he had been terrified by the sudden
appearance of One Lamp Louie, alias
Louis Lamb. his confederate in crime.
Another thing that had frightened
him was the appearance of the mystic
rious stranger. EavenGar. Sebastian

MAIL THEM EARLY.
Christmas Packages for Soldiers
Should Be Sent Soon.

Chicago. oct. ga campaign for
early shipment Of Christmas packages
was inaugurated at a joint meeting of
the American Railway Associations
car service committees OF Chicago,
Milwaukee and South Bend. Corpora
ton in this campaign was promised
by representatives. of the National In
dustrial Traffic League and, the Chi
ca@o Association of Commerce.
Each railroad Is to do everything
possible to promote early shipments OF
Christmas packages. whether by mail
or express, according TO q resolution
adopted by the car service committees.
The railway mail service Of the gov
ernment has expressed its appreciation
Of the plan OF the railroads to handle
promptly the unusually large amount
of Christmas packages expected this
year, but this can not be done unless
the public will ship such packages in
advance Of the usual time.
There will be approximately a mill
lion soldiers in the various canton
mentS and training camps who will
receive Christmas packages Of an av-
erage weight estimated at five pounds,
or one-fourth of the maximum allow
ance for parcel post packages. To
handle all these packages in few days
before Christmas will be physically i'm
possible for the railways, express COM
panies and the postal department. The
postofice department has fixed Nov
IS as the last day for mailing Christ
mas packages to our soldiers and
sailors abroad.
There Is at the present time a short
age of baggage car equipment that
affects the handling Of mails said P.
]. Schardt, superintendent Of railway
mail service, and this shortage will
be felt more keenly with the approach
of the holiday period, when the flow
Of mail increases far above normal.
The selective army law has made
serious inroads on our clerical force.
Unless the public will take Into con-
sideration the shortage of equipment
and labor that the railway mail ser
vice will be confronted with during the
holiday period. serious congestion and
consequent delays to Christmas mails
will result, 20 say nothing of the dis
appointments to both senders and
receivers Of belated packages"

Davenport, Oct. 25.-Another million
dollars year will be added to the
arsenal payroll beginning with Nov

stream that is pouring into the tri-
cities from the Golfers of the govern
ment as a result Of arsenal activities
will not be due to increases in the
number of men employed there. but to

50 cents a day that has been authorized
from Washington.
Were Losing Men.
OF late the arsenal has been losing
men almost as fast II not faster than
it has been able TO secure them. This
was due investigation proved, to the
fact that employers In the Ti-cities
and elsewhere We're paying higher
rates for the same class Of work than
the government was able to offer. The
situation become acute during the last
couple of weeks and for the past ten
days Colonel Burr has been in con-
slant conference with committees rep
resenting the various labor organiza-
tons and groups and classes Of en-
ployes at the arsenal. AS a result
increases We're allowed in the several
classes of labor and finally approved
by the chief of ordnance. They go
into effect as stated, on Nov /.
Retention Of Help.
1t is believed that these increases
will result in a retention Of arsenal
help to a much greater degree than
has heretofore been the case.
The horizontal raise in question at
fects all classes from common labor,
which is now receiving $500 for a ten
hour day, up TO the machinists, die
s.nkers and other higher paid en-
ployes.
The arsenal payroll including the
wages OF men employed by the con-
struction companies. is now almost
million dollars a month and this new
raise will add 100000 year.
Before the revival Of activity at the
arsenal the payroll was s1,250,00 a
