Elevator O.uners to Saue
Insurance; Terminal Rates

Wayne county elevator owners will
be saved 40 per cent on insurance
rates by a ruling that terminal grain

SOROKA, Russian Paland, June 80.
Via London, July 2S.-Correspond-

ing forward daily into territory OF the
Bolsheviki and often under fire, the
American railway troops on the Muir
man front in two months transformed
rs miles OF dynamited and burned
bridges and railway, wrecked and de-
stroyed by retreating Bolsheviki, into
q workable railway which they
manned. operated and maintained.
To these troops the British command
gives much of the credit OF the sew

167th and 168th companies Of railway
troops as a special battalion under
Major e. E. MacMoreland, Kansas
City, and every kind Of railroader from
a superintendent to a section hand.
The Yanks worked so fast in fact
that the Bolsheviki according to pris-
oners taken, believed that they had
miraculous machines for track-laying
and adjustable bridges which they
dporped in as they went along. 1t was
all done by gang under Captain c. J.
Jones, of Peterson, N. j., who in
Alaskan and Latin-American jobs was
nicknamed "Hurry-up Jones'"
The men worked seventeen hours
daily with the enemy right ahead and
the British artillery right behind
awaiting construction. There were
also battles and skirmishes in many
small sidings where on several occas-
ions the constructors and also the
trains crews were under fire.

On May 10, while building a bridge
under shrapnel fire, the Yanks were
surrounded by Bolsheviki skipping
through the woods and dynamiting the
bridge three versts in the rear. On
the way back to repair the bridge
the Yanks were again attacked at close
range but managed to escape.
The shop detachment, under Captain
G. r. Mcmillan, of South America and
Panama. formerly from Omaha, had
to transform junk pile equipment into
workable rolling stock.

MRS. TROUT BURIES
GRIEF over 7 DEAD
SONS IN CRUSADE

Mrs. Grace Wilbur Trout did not
come to Richmond free from cares
and sorrow, but she believes this is
not a time for mourning; that it is,
instead, time to carry on" as the
women Of America have never done
before.
The day after the armistice was
signed, Mr.. and Mrs. Trout received
word that one Of their four sons had
been killed in action in France. Only
recently, another son, and the one who
was the real cause of his mother 60
ing into suffrage work, was thrown
from a horse and died as a result OF
heart trouble aggravated by the fall.
This son was SO enthusiastic about
my taking up this work, which he
believed to be the only salvation of
the world and womanhood." said Mrs.
Trout. Sometimes l think my heart
will break, but we must keep on. 1t
would be cowardly to leave the battle

CHAPTER LXVII

Desiree's restless mood did not
abate as the day wore on. She had
been to her fathers office, then to
the jewelers. to explain Smiths alb
solute innocence in the matter of the
supposed theft of the pendant. Yet,
after luncheon was over, and she
had tried in vain to write letters,
then to read she was forced to
acknowledge that she was too "fid-
gety' to sit still.
II will run around to see Aunt
Adelaide" she decided, "and tell her
that my pendant is safe here in my
jewerly case"
Thus it came about that as Mrs.
Duffield was about to partake of
her five o'clock tea her niece walk
ed in. The widow greeted her af-
fectionately.
my dear this is nice of you! Sit
down and take a cup of tea with
we."
II will sit down, but I will take
no tea, thank you," Desiree said.
She paused for n moment, then
drove straight to the point.
"Auntie, my pendant was not
stolen at all. I said all along that
it was not"
Mrs. Duffield gasped. you mean
you have found it?"
Yes. 1t was put away in a
leather case instead of in the little
box where thought it was"
(The automobile pocket was
leather and a case, Desiree reflect
ed. This statement would obviate
the necessity of further explana-
tions.)
But who put it there?" Mrs.
Duff1eld asked.
"Norah."
ooh my dear how dreadful" the
widow sighed.
Dreadful? Why" 49, s.
Because it is dreadful to think
that all of us suspected SMITH
"All of u.s." Desiree interrupted; +;
Il never suspected him. You must
surely recall how I begged father
not to doubt him-and how 1 de-

don't you see what you have done?
You have started a story about
Smith and 1t may stick to HIM as
long as he is here. Walter Jeffcr-
son is just the sort of man who
will be only too happy to repeat
that tale everywhere to anybody
who will listen to him. And. of
course everybody will listen. Oh"
passionately, how could you!"

Mrs. Duffield tried to speak with
dignity. "Desiree, l think you for
get yourself when you say such
things to me! l hope, in spite of
your suggestions to the contrary,
that l have as keen a sense of honor
as yourself. L am surprised at
you"
I.er voice broke and tears came
to her eyes. In an instant Desiree
was at her side and her arms were
about her aunt's waist.
Il beg your pardon, Auntie," she
said contritely, II forget myself, as
you say. ! did not mean to speak
so vehcmently. Only"-with little
culver in her .voice-"it does seem Il
bit hard on Smith that such a story
should be connected with him. And
you know, Helen is very indiscrcet.
So is Walter Jefferson. Helen would
not willingly harm a fly. Walter
would if"-with a hysterical gig
gle-"he happened to dislike the fly.
And he dislikes Smith,"
well dear, l will call Helen up
and tell her the truth about the
matter" Mrs. Duffield began.
"No-no-please, Auntie say no
more about it to anyone" Desiree
begged. She feared that her aunt's
zeal would make a bad matter
worse. 'I will see Helen before
long and explain about it myself.
AS to Walter Jefferson suppose
he cannot really harm Smith. And
it he does - why - with n little
catch in her breath-"it can't be
helped-that's ALL"
No, dear" her aunt agreed, "it
can't be helped. 1t is too bad, but
you must remember that Smith is
just chauffeur after all. and"-
She stopped abruptly, her tardy
discretion reminding her that De-
stree did not know that the chauf-
feur's real name was not Smith"
