Rockford, ILL.,, April ga gar
age and 20 light trucks used by
the federal department of agricul-
ture in experimental work at Camp
Grant, were destroyed early today
in a spectacular fire. Loss is estI-
mated at $4,000.
The fire was discovered by SEN
try who discharged his rifle to give
the alarm. The Camp Grant fire
department responded Immediately
but because of the nature of the
building it was consumed quickly.
A 100-gallon gasoline storage
tank exploded and the fire quickly
spread throughout the building.
For 80 minutes there were minor
explosions as the smaller tanks
on the trucks exploded.
The fire was confined to the sim
gle building and no other damage
was done.
Spontaneous combustion was
given as the cause of the fire. 1t
was the most spectacular since the
hostess house at Camp Grant was
burned

RIVER GIVES
UP BODY OF
REV. LEACH
Missing Averyville Pastor
Is Found on Shore
By Fisherman.

Peoria, H., April 29.-The body
of the Rev. w. ]. Leach, missing
pastor of the Averyville Presby7
terian church and newspaperman,
was found this morning by a fish
erman on the Tazewell county
shore of the Illinois river, wedged
between the willows.
The body was found directly op-
posite Peoria, about two and half
miles south of the upper free bridge
where the minister was last seen
on the night of his disappearance.
The body was badly decomposed,
but identity was readily established
by clothing worn, the Identification
being made by newspaper men who
had worked with the minister and
writer.
Notes on the flood found in Rev.
Leach's pocket indicated he had
gone to the rive rto get feature
article for the paper for which he
worked. A heavy electrical storm
was sweeping over the river the
night he disappeared. The minis
ter had spoken of the suffering
caused by the flood during the
services that night.
Disappeared April 2.
Rev. Learch disappeared about 9
O'Clock on Wednesday night, April
2, after conducting Lenten services
of the Averyville church, a suburb
of Peoria.
When last seen he was standing
on the church steps. He told mem
bers of the congregation he was
going to ride home on a street car.
He was seen walking away from the
church few moments later
Shortly afterward he was denied
permission to cross the upper free
bridge.
When Mr.. Leach failed to re-
turn home large groups of citizens
Boy Scouts and national guards
men searched for two weeks day
and night in an effort to locate the
missing pastor.

The boy is at work today.
Get a red-headed boy every

tice, these youngsters have more
fire in them than their playmates.
My experience convinces this is
true. They usually are found in
two bright and thrifty races; :, either
they are Scots or Celtic in their
ancestry"
Lucas used the word another"

been successful before in similar
ventures.

I'VE had a red-headed boy here

but we couldn't keep him down to
office boy duties. He's gone on to
promotion and is holding respon-
sible position now with the firm
in another plant
1t was the fourth applicant who
won the last place. The employer
has other ideas about boys.
What brand of cigarets do you
consider best?" is one of his stock
questions when boys ask for a job.
The boy who answers quickly and
frcm experience usually does not
get the job. He also asks aspi-
rants how long they think they
should work without pay to con-
vince him of their ability and bases
his decision upon their reply. If a
boy suggests month he usually is
not considered while the applicant
who yells not minute has a
good chance of starting on the job.

RECONSTRUCTS
FACE ON SKULL
OF SLAIN GIRL
NeID York Man Does
Miracle to Identi-
fly Victim.
BY JANE COMPTON.

Consolidated Press Correspondent.
Copyright. 1922. by The Argus.l
New Yor. April 29.-An investi-
gator for the New York police de-
partment completed today the re
construction" of the skull of an
unidentified murdered woman
found fortnight ago on a noun
tain near Haverstraw, 80 miles
from New York City. This is the
second occasion in the history Of
crime when an unreconizable skull
has been reconstructed into the
semblance of what it was in life.
In each case the work has been
done by Captain Grant Williams,
now retired from the police depart
ment, who devised the method six
years ago to effect the solution of
,puzZling crime. Usually the task
or an investigator is to reconstruct
the circumstances and motive of
a murder. Captain Williams has
gone further back than this. He
has reconstructed the murder vic
tim Without such action no iden-
tification in this case was possible.
Without it there could be no solu-
ton Of the mystery.
Dead for Months.
There was little of anything hu-
man about the remnants of the
murdered woman when boys STUN
bled on the body upon a lonely
mountain side where it must have
lain unclad since sometime last
fall.
Captain Williams has covered the
skull with a thin coating of plas-
ter composition. My aim was
merely to follow the contour of the
bones of the head and face" he ex-
planned. 81 did not wish to give
the face any expression other than
that which the contour affords, be
cause if 1 gave the wrong express
ion it would hinder Identification.
Zone skull differs from another
as one face differs from another, 4
fact which l learned during %
years of police experience Merely
to cover the face bones with a plas-
ter compound is to reconstruct the
face SO accurately that the victim s
friends Immediately will recognize
her, even though because of thin
coating of plaster flesh, she may
look as if she had been i'll for some
time"
The reconstructed head will be
compared with photographs of
New Workers listed as missing. II
no identification is made here the
skull will be returned to Haver-
straw for further investigation
among the woman's supposed &C
quaintanceS.

Washington, April 29.-The girls

Washington next week and have a

since the war.
The Salvation Army lassie who

checkers with homesick doughboys

JUDGES EDICT
HALTS CHICAGO
SIX-CENT FARE
Enjoir1 State Commits.
sion From Er1forc-
ing Order.

Chicago, April 29-Judges Ev-
ans, Geiger and Page, sitting en-
banc in federal court, yesterday
enjoined the Illinois commerce
commission from enforcing its Or
der for Scent fares on the Chicago
surface lines, which would have
become effective at midnight Sun
day.
Attorney Joseph NJ. Sheean of
counsel for the traction lines was
still in the middle of his argument
in favor of the injunction when
Judge Evans interrupted.
Not Permanent.
''The judges cannot at this time
continue with hearing of arguments
in this fare proposition without
putting other schedules of the court
hopelessly out of Hne," said Judge
Evans. The injunction against the
Scent fare order will be entered to
stand until further order of the
court.
THE judges do not want to give
the impression that the injunction
is a permanent one or anything
like that There is certain other
pressing business that is coming
up, however, that cannot wait. For
that reason the injunction is enter
ed until the court can, at its ear
liest opportunity, take up the ques,
ton again, hear the rest of the ar
gument and reach decision that
can stand"
SeVen.Cent Fare Possible.
During the earlier argument, il
the afternoon, Judge Geiger asked
several questions of Attorney
Sheean which indicated possibil
ity of an injunction with condition.
which might put the fare at sever
cents.
DO you think the judges would
be justified in conditioning the in
junction, to limit the companies Il
say not more than seven cents :?
asked the judge.
Yes said the traction attorney
Il believe So
Wage Cut Means Strike.
Further questioning by judge
Geiger and Evans brought out tn,
fact that 51.32 per cent of the tota
| income of the Companies is paiC
| out in wages and that one-cen
reduction in fare means a reduction
of $4,000 a day in the income o
the company At that rate, it wa
pointed out, a 20 per cent reduction
| in wages of employees will be nee
essary to bring fares down on
cent.
| And" commented Attorne.

( of trainmen 20 per cent there jus
wouldn't be any trains operated il
