MILWAUKEE COMPANY CONSE-
CRATES ROAD TO HELP
WIN SAFE PEACE.

The newest dedication to wal time
service of the nation and the public
is made by the Milwaukee road In the
February issue of the train schedule.
1t Is a dedication Of its physical

country's war against autocracy-the

the greater business of the nation
may have the right of way.
"On its part the Chicago, Milwau-

ATTEMPT TO BURN
FLOUR MILL AT ABERDEEN
FRUSTRATED BY WATCH
MAN.

Aberdeen, Feb. 12.-Investigation
by federal officials and Aberdeen po.
lice of an attempt by incendiaries,
presumably I. w. WIS. to burn the
Aberdeen mill was disclosed today.
Shortly before / O'Clock Friday
afternoon one OF the watchmen al
the mill discovered a piece Of oiled
burlap in flames on the floor Of the
grain room. The burlap had been
dipped in kerosene and showed
through a belt hole in the grain door
on the north side of the building.
Immediate discovery by the watch
man, who maintains constant vigil
ance day and night. is believed to
have saved the mill from destruc-
ton.
Federal officers today declined to
confirm rumors that a plant of phos-
phorus. which had become frozen,
had been found on the premises.
Extra watchmen have been placed
on duty at the mill under a special
superintendent OF watch.

was seasick as an old fool. 1t may
have been funny for some of the boys
but it was far from being funny from
my standpoint. It's absolutely ter
rible, that's all. We had wonderful
weather, though, and ii was great
sport when / came down to where !
should be and my stomach became
less proud of its associates. We Jared
quite we'll and cheaply. don't think
much of the food we were supposed
to eat, and the English way of cook
ing hasn't met with my approval yet,
and we get some of the funniest cof-
fee I aver hope to taste. It's like tea,
chocolate and coffee all at the same
time and I really don't believe it's
either on of the three.
The freight cars in England are
the queerest looking affairs. I saw
n yesterday whose capacity was ac-
tually 10 tons, think of that; and
also saw an old man with a rope,
switching several box cars on a sid
ing. How he ever did 1t, l am sure
l don't know; they don't have any
checking system for baggage. Don't
think I'm running down the English,
for 1 think they are very interesting
and capable, those I have talked to,
I'm just telling you what funny
things l see, that's ALL"

About half the trains on the Lenox
