Washington, June 13.-Following an
appeal to Congress by Attorney Gen
eral Palmer for an appropriation of
S5OO,OOO to run down the authors of
the recent attempts to assassinate
public officials, it became known that
200 secret agents of the Navy Intelli-
gence Bureau are investigating
gigantic plot to explode bombs in Chi
cago and more than a score of other
large cities July 4.
About fifty government detectives
are working in Chicago, suspected of
being headquarters of the plotters.
Others are pursuing leads in Detroit,
Indianapolis, East Chicago, Hammond
and other Middle West industrial CEN
tiers. Suspects are under surveillance
in Milwaukee, Minneapolis, st. Louis,
Louisville, Cleveland, Akron, Toledo
and Moline.
The plot called for July bomb DEM
onstrations in all of these cities except
Milwaukee, and in Pittsburg, Phila-
delphia, Baltimore, Washington, New
York, Trenton, Newark, Jersey City,
Bridgeport, Taunton, Fall River, Provi-
dence, Boston, Pittsburg, Memphis,
Atlanta, Savannah, Charleston, Birm-
ingham and New Orleans.
Navy intelligence operatives were
assigned to the investigation at the re-
quest of the Department of Justice,
whose own detectives have become too
well known to the Reds.
Existence of the plot became known
to Department of Justice operatives
about two months ago, when an oper-
ative who had joined terrorist
group and gained the confidence of
members of the inner circles at Chi
cago headquarters of the organization
succeeded in purloining papers con-
| tanning a program of bomb explosions
| for large number of cities where
Fourth of July celebrations on a large
scale were to be held.
In many of the cities where the cele-
brations planned We're to be municipal
in character, the point at which the
largest crowds might be expected to
assemble were indicated.
Evidence of the widespread nature
| of the plot includes a large number of
pieces of mail, kilograms and messages
delivered personally found in places
where raids had been made on radical
centers.
The subject matter of these mes
sages has been communicated to chiefs
of police in the cities concerned and
the local police officials are cooperat-
ing with the government in the inves-
tigation.
The $5OO,0O0 asked of Congress by
the attorney general to fight the bomb
plotters is in addition to S1,500,000 for
the departments bureau of investiga-
tion.
"The comparatively recent violence
and the attempted violence on the part
of individuals associated with anar-
chistic organizations" said Mr.. Palmer
In his letter to Congress, "discloses
existing conditions which renders the
supplemental estimate necessary in or
der that there may be ample means
| for protecting the public and enforcing
the laws of the United States"
Mr.. Palmer also requested authority
| to appoint a director of the bureau of
investigation at n salary of $500.
This is the post to which William
| Flynn has been appointed

ice is necessarily wasteful, but not to
the extent popularity supposed.
Roof Must Be Tight.
1t is quite possible to put a cube of
ice twelve feet through in a cheaply
constructed building and so pack 1t
with sawdust as to keep it in a very
satisfactory way until wanted during
the summer months. The roof must
be tight because water dropping often
in the same spot will bore a hole
through the sawdust covering down
to the ice; warm air will follow and
we all know that air must be kept
away from ice or it will melt rapidly.
Drainage is another very important
consideration. The bottom must be

stopped to drink. The dog drew the
little girl closer to the spot.
"Where has that man gone tot If IL

Prince stopped suddenly and whined
and then looked around at his mistress,
as though to say "See there"
Carolyn May tumbled off the sled
In a hurry. When she did so she
slipped on a patch Of s~now-covered ice
and fell. But she was not hurt.

Oh
1t was the sleeve of a mans rough
coat thrust out of the snowbank that
brought this last cry TO the child's lips.
"Oh, oh! It's a man." burst from
Carolyn Mays trembling lips. How
cold he must be-"
She pumped down on her knees and
began brushing the snow away. She
uncovered his shoulder. She took hold
OF this with her mittened hands and
tried to shake the prone figure.
"Oh, do wake up! Please wake up"
she cried, digging away the snow as
fast as possible.
A shaggy head was revealed, with an
old cap pulled down tightly over the
ears. The man moved again and grunt-
ed something. He half turned over,
and there was blood upon the snow,
and a great frosted cake OF 1t on the
side of his face.
Carolyn May was dreadfully fright
ened. The mans head was cut and the
blood was smeared over the front OF
his jacket. Now she could see a pud-
die of 1t, right where he had fallen on
the ice-just as she had fallen herself.
Only, he had struck his head on a rock
and cut himself.

CHAPTER TX.


Before the week was over, winter
had come to Sunrise Cove and The
Corners In earnest. Snow fell and
drifted. until there was scarcely any
thing to be seen n morning when
Carolyn May awoke and looked u Of
her bedroom windows but a white,
fieecy mantle.
This was more snow than the little
girl had ever seen In New York. She
came down to breakfast very much ex-

and steps, and Prince had beaten his
own dooryard In the snow In front of
his house. For he had a house Of his

1t must be confessed that. although
Uncle Joe paid for the building OF his
doghouse, 1t never would have been

been for Carolyn May.

next day Carolyn May used on the dog.
and Prince drew her very nicely along
the beaten paths.
BY Saturday the roads were In splen-

So Carolyn May went sledding.
Out OF sight Of the houses grouped
at The Corners the road I town
seemed as lonely as though IL were q
veritable wilderness. Here and there
the drifts had piled six feet deep. for
the wind had a free sweep across the
barrens.

alright, but 1t must be porous enough
to allow water to ~percolate through.
For this reason a base formed of rough
stones covered with cinders and the
cinders covered with a foot of saw
dust makes a good bottom. A very
satisfactory substitute is made by
laying small round poles in the bottom
OF the Ice house covered with straw
and the straw covered with sawdust
about a foot deep.
There is a good deal in packing the
Ice In the house to make 1t keep well
1t should be put in during cold wealth
er and all the chinks carefully filed
with broken ice and the whole mass
well frozen together by pouring on
water. BY doing this very carefully
the Ice can be frozen together almost
solid SO the air will all be forced out
There should be a space of a foot
between the ice and the sides of the
house all around and this foot hneS
I'm with sawdust tamped down. The
sawdust should be at least a foot
deep on top of the ice; IL inches Is
better.
Must Have Attention.
a great deaf of ice is lost during
the spring months when the weather
Is getting warm, but not warm enough
to require the s of Ice In the re-
frigerator. During these weeks the
Ice house Is forgotten, and 1t melts
q little and settles. The settling proc
ess opens cracks in the wet sawdust
and some of these cracks will extend
through to the ice. After the house
is filled and covered with sawdust It
should have attention at least once
a week. II the sawdust is kept packed
down well all around and on top the
ice cannot melt very much.
There are other details to think
about. such as ventilation and shade.
It is a great help to have the house
shaded by a large tree or another
building. When the sun beats down
hot on top Of the roof the temperature
inside the building is q great deal
higher than II would be with the roof
shaded.
In choosing the location convent
ence In using the Ice should be con-
sidered In preference to convenience
In filling the ice house. because the
filling Is done In a Day or two where
as the unloading process occupies sew
eral months and requires innumerable
trips between the Kitchen and the ice
house.

Weekly Health Talks
A Word About the

People are easily frightened when they

lungs or heart, and well they may be; but
few people understand the dangerA of dis
eased kidneys. These organs have a duty
of vital Importance to perform, and if they
are diseased, there is no telling how or
where the symptoms may appear. The
kidneys are filters, and when they. ara
healthy they remove the poisons from the
blood and purify it. When the kidneys
are diseased, the poisons are spread every
where. and one of these poisons is uric
acid. The uric acid is carried all through
the system and deposited in various places.
