Katherine Experiences a Peculiar
 Disappointment

Disappointment
 70 l think Katherine was as elated Us l over the succeso of her scheme to prove that Fanny Powell was shamming the amnesia with which we had thought she was afflicted. But our triumph was short-llved, for even as the little nurse gripped her patients shoulder and uttered her stern inquiry, I saw her eyes di- late in sudden astonishment and heard her crisp command to me, "Catch her, Madge, quick! She's been walking in her sleep!'
 g. As she spoke she shifted one. lranl and brought the palm of 1t firmly against Fanny Powell's liph, crfectually lessening the sound of the shrill frightened scream which tore from the girls throat at Kath- ernes grip and question.
 "Oh, oh." Fanny Powell was say ing What is it? Where am IF" and then she reeled against me. Obeying Katherine's injunction, I held her firmly while her face and limbs twitched and quivered in something resembling a convulsion.
 You are perfectly all right" Katherine assured her when the paroxysm was over. You were walking in your sleep and l awak- ened you too suddenly. Come over to your bed and lie down again"
 Who is holding me?" the girl asked, ,frsntically trying to twist her head around that she might see me. S"One of my friends" Katherine answered, holding her patients face close against her shoulder, But she's going away now" She nodded a dismissal, and releasing my hold upon Fanny Powell I got myself out of the room as rapidly as possible. I knew that Katherine dreaded the possible effect upon her patient of seeing me. because of the aversion the girl had displayed toward me.

I told myself that Katherine's possible need for me was my reason for remaining, and, of course, the situation inside the room did justify my course. I was conscious, however, of an over whelming curiosity to hear from Katherine's lips the links of the story I was missing because of Fanny Powells dislike for me.
 My vigil at first was disturbed by worry concerning the possible effect upon Lillian and my mother-in-law should they have heard Fanny Pow ellis scream. But as the seconds of my watch ticked themselves into minutes, with no sign from either woman. I concluded that Rather

John Alden Prcscott's Home Lootcd; Suspected Murder Of GoNerness

Last night the home of John AL den Prescott was entered by burg lars and the jewels of Mrs. Prescott taken from the safe. Among them were her celebrated pearls valued at half million dollars.
 This burglary Is all the more mysterious because of the fact that Miss Zoe Ellington. a friend of the family, who was acting in the ca pacity Of nursery governess, has dis appeared,
 Whether she was abducted or mur- dered and the body spirited away the police have not yet determined. Some one, however, was wounded in the hallway of the house, for blood was found on the newel post. This might have been Sydney Carton, an

Walker, tool Of the Farrington-Lewis
machine, in its efforts to grab the Of
fee of Freeman Thompson, president
Of Illinois miners sub-district No. 4,
received his second rebuff today when
he appeared to ask Thompson to turn
the Office over to him.
Walker appeared at the sub-district
Office shortly after Thompson had re-
ceived letter from Harrington noti-
flying him to relinquish the office I'M

controlled district executive board
Thompson told Walker he had no in.
tention of turning the office over to
him. He handed Walker a copy Of the
official report of the sub-district tellers
declaring that he, Thompson, was
elected.
Walker was told to carefully study
this report. Walker then left accom-.
panied, as he had arrived, by his
brother, Lance Walker.
Later Thompson declared: 'T am in
Office. shall remain in Office until the
membership of sub-district No. tells
me to get out"

Of the sub-district with Thompson,

An arbitrary change in the results
Of the vote cast for Thompson in the
union elections is the basis of the
attack on the miners leader here
Thompson was duly elected according
to the official report of the sub-dis-
trict tellers by vote of 2,194 to 2,103.
Without granting hearing to Thomp-
son or any other sub-district official,
in fact, denying them a hearing when
they demanded it, the Farrington-con-
trolled district executive board threw
out enough votes to elect Walker,
Thompson's opponent, by vote of
1904 for Thompson and 3,279 for
Walker. This is one of the most
characteristic acts perpetrated by the
Harrington machine and the miners
here are up in arms against it, The
demand of the miners for a special
sub-district convention is also being
arbitrarily rejected by the Earring
ton forces.

II Is evident that over these issues

BOSSES PRAISED
FOR STORM HELP
OF THE WORKERS
Force Donations to Get
Advertisement

How the large non-unlon Industrial
corporations are wrlnslne foroibe
contributions for southern Illinois
storm relief from their poorly paid
employees, In order to get advertise
ment Is revealed In the story Of the
workers in the Pullman palace car
shops, 10th St. and Cottage Grove
avenue.
The Pullman corporation, Of which
J. P. Morgan is a director placed con-
tribution boxes thruout the car shops,
over which were hung large signs
announcing that the company was
contributing $1,000 in the name Of
the employees, and this sum must be
raised.
A Non-Union Shop
At the end of the day the officials
Of the company took down the boxes
and counted up the money. The Pull
man employees are poorly paid. The
company Immediately fires all union
men, as soon as they are found. A
general wage cut for all piece work
has just been introduced and the men
have been ordered to speed up" So
the men had no money to give. And
the contribution boxes were found to
be nearly empty. Seventy cents were
found in one, a dollar and a half in
another, and so it went,
The Pullman officials were furious.
The next day, the workers report to
the DAILY WORKER, they were told
that every man must work exactly un-
till the whistle blew, even tho they
were on piece work. Two men were
reported fired from the carpenter de-
partment of the steel shop for quit
ing work one minute before the
whistle blew The Pullman officials
we're getting even"
Cheap Publicity
Watchmen were placed turnout the
plant to intimidate the men. They
were allowed only two minutes in the
toilets, which were also guarded.
The large corporation thus force
the workers to contribute to any
cause which will bring the company
advertisement, and the papers write
the donation, Pullman employees con
tribute $2,5O0" This has been found
cheap way for the employers to gain
publicity.
