with his landlord to divide the bills
relieved a terrific strain which began
with his discovery.
Il told my wife about it and we
didn't know what to do" Bridges said.
II don't know how I managed to
keep it a secret all Winter. There
was times when I sure thought I'd
have to spend some of it. heard
them talkin' downtown that the gold
notes wasn't legal, or something, so I
was afraid to try to spend it. Then
I heard they was legal. and that was
when I tried to spend one Of them
last Saturday.
when first got it I hid it way
out in a plowed field. But couldn't
sleep nights. kept thinkin' what If
1t was to get plowed up, or something.
Then took and hid it near the barn
where no one could find it. But still
I couldn't sleep.
Il kept thinkin' what II the stock
was to get to tramplin' around there
and step on it, or turn it up. And
every time I heard a board creak I'd
almost jump out OF bed.

urday. It's sure load off my mind" 4"
Where the money came from is a
mystery. The farm adjoining the
place is the Groves farm. John Groves,
who died some years ago, was wealthy.
He was known to be eccentric, espe-
cially in money matters.
Last Saturday Bridges offered a
Stockton merchant a $40 bill from his
find. The bill was so old and so un-
usual that the merchant, as well as
banker, thought it counterfeit.
1t was then that Bridges went to
Probate Judge Boyd Spencer. who
owns the farm on which Bridges lives,
and told him about it.

Drive on Disputes on
! W. Jurisdiction.

I Setting up an entirely new method

disputes In the building industry
without recourse either to strikes or
lockouts, organized labor, and organ
azed employees, have inaugurated
movement here, which last night was
spraised by both Secretary of Labor

John B. Colpoys, United States
marshal and editor of the Trades
sUnionist, was toastmaster. He sounded
"a plea for giving more municipal
sprojects to Washington contractors,
.instead of to outsiders" He charged
THAT outsiders had come here and
s"chiseled" on municipal projects, had
beaten down the wage scale, and
brought in low class of outside labor.
Murphy Explains Plan.

operations during jurisdictional dis
putes was explained by E. j. Murphy,
president of the Subcontractors AsSo-
, citation Of Washington, who is one of
the officials of the new organization.
The new plan sets up a so-called
"Welfare Committee" including rep
resentatives of both organized labor
and employers. Jurisdictional disputes
are to be referred to this committee
for settlement with no strikes or lock-
outs meantime No member of the
committee can sit on case in which
he or his own organization is directly
concerned.
