YANKS AMAZED RUSS BY FEATS OF ENGINEERING Railway Troops Performed Seeming Miracles on Dashes Toward Interior.
SOROKA. Russian Paland. June 30. Via London. July 28. Correspondenceof The Associated Press. Pushing forward dally Into territory of the Bolshevikl and often under fire, the American railway troops on the Murman front in two months transformed 75 miles of dynamited and burned bridges and railway, wrecked and de
stroyed by retreating Bolshevikl, into a workable railway which they manned, operated and maintained. To these troops the British command glres much of the credit of the seventy-five mile advance toward Petrozavodsk. In the contingent were 36 officers and 675 men, comprising the 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 Bolshevikl according to prisoners taken, believed that they had miraculous machines for track-laying and adjustable bridges which they dporped In as they went along. It was all done by a 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 dally 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 occasions the constructors and also the train's crews were under fire. Attacked by Bolsheviks. On May 19, while building a bridge under shrapnel fire, the Yanks were nurrounded by Bolshevikl 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 C. E. McMillan, of South America and Panama, formerly from Omaha, had to transform junk pile equipment into workable rolling stock. Then the Yanks, under Captain H. O: Odell, former assistant and superintendent at Santa Fe, built and operated an eight-mile street railway in Murman. Under Lieutenant Charles B. Tuttle, they operated and manned an armored train. Railroad men who formerly drew high pay in Boston, Pittsburg, or Indiana shared in making these railway enterprises a Yankee success.

AMERICANS BRING REP FROM DAYTON
Dayton Americans, scheduled to play here . Sunday, August 24, are coming over with the intention of breaking the winning streak of the locals. The Americans are reputed to be a much better club than the Dayton Red Sox, who were defeated by the Quakers earlier in the season. Hikes, Dayton's crack pitcher, formerly pitched for the Louisville club, of the American association, but as the spit ball is barred in that league this year, Hikes is pitching semi-pro ball for the Americans, although he has had several offers to play league ball. He has defeated such strong teams. Farmland, Ind., Hamilton, Springflield, Lima and Wilmington, Ohio. Although defeated, he held the Newcastle Maxwell club to one run; the Muncie Greys had to go fourteen innings to beat him, and the Cincinnati Norwoods, semi-pro champs of the world, were only able to score one run off
his delivery.
Elevator Owners to Save
Insurance; Terminal Rates Are Not To Be Applied Wayne county elevator owners will
be saved 40 per cent on Insurance rates by a ruling that terminal grain
elevator rates cannot be applied to
ordinary grain elevators, of which Otto L. Klaus notified the state inspection bureau, Thursday. Terminal rates are approximately 40 per cent higher than the ordinary rates. The
rule follows: "It is ordered that the Indiana Inspection bureau discontinue the use of
the schedule known as standard ter
minal elevator schedule for rating
grain elevators other than terminal elevators and immediately re-rate all
grain elevators within the state of In-
the schedule known as the standard
grain elevator schedule, and make such rates effective as are obtained by the application of said standard grain elevator schedule as of date of June 12, 1919, or the date upon which said schedule was filed in my office."

MRS. TROUT BURIES GRIEF OVER 2 DEAD SONS IN CRUSADE
Mrs. Grace Wilbur Trout did not come to Richmond free from caj-es and sorrow, but she believes this is not a time for mourning; that it is. Instead, a 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 waa the real cause of his mother going 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 I think my heart will break, but we must keep on. It would be cowardly to' leave the battle
SHIPS TO BE RELEASED.
State Guarantees Teachers
Minimum Wage Money The state board of tax commission
ers has indicated that it will assume jurisdiction over tuition fund levies provided for by the 1919 tuition fund
levy law, according to a letter received by L. N. Hines, state director of
public instruction from the tax board, and reiterated a former statement that it will see that the school corporations have enough money from tax sources with which to guarantee teachers the minimum wage provided for by the 1919 teacher's salary law. Ele Stansbury, attorney-general of Indiana, holds, in an opinion submitted to the state school superintendent, that the distribution of the deficiency fund for the school year 1919-20 shall be made on the basis of the 1918 levies inasmuch as the present deficiency fund, from which this year's distribution will be made, was raised on that basis. However, according to the attorneygeneral, after 1919-20 the distribution is to be made on the new basis.

As a young woman Mrs. Trout was trained for public speaking, and her voice and charming appearance on the stage add immensely to her ability as a public speaker. Her Interest in suffrage has dated back to her young womanhood. Her husband, too, is a staunch adherent to the forward progressing of woman.

SHODDY
SKIN ERUPTIONS CAUSE UNBEARABLE ITCHING
Hawkins Swimming Season Is Best Ever; Many Women Take Dips C. A. Parker, proprietor of the Hawkins' swimming pool, says this summer was the best season for swimming he had experienced in several years, and good sized crowds were in the water every day. ' The last two weeks, however, the pond has not been quite so popular, because of cool weather. This summer more women made use of the pond than ever before, said Parker. It is thought that the women's classes at the Y. M. C. A. is the cause for this, as the lessons encouraged girls and women to take up outdoor swimming. On warm days during the Chautauqua season, numbers of campers take advantage of the nearness of the pond to enjoy a swim.
It is estimated that four miles of an ordinary spider's thread would weigh scarcely a grain.

r-rHE DICTIONARY DEFINES THE WORD "SHODDY" AS: "Inferior, Not GenuI ine, Sham" and, whereas this expression is more popularly applied to clothing, such may with equal good taste and forcefulness be used in connection with lumber for there is such a thing as Shoddy Lumber.
T
HE EFFECT OF SHODDY LUMBER IN BUILDING is identical with that of shoddy clothing for the individual. For a brief period ostensibly all right, then a sudden giving away and falling apart old and down and out before its time.

UMBER IS ONE THING. GOOD LUMBER is the all important thing in build

.'- Healthy Mothers
Healthy Babies
Every true mother realizes the fact that her baby's health depends upon her own, that the very vitality of her child is influenced by her own physical condition. How important it is, therefore, to guard against any derangement of the female organs, which induce general weakness, nervousness, constant fatigue and utter inabilitv to properly care for her child. Please remember, that Lydia Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has brought health and strength to thousands of such mothers. Mitchell, Ind. "Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound helped me so much daring the tfmo I was looking forward to the coming of my little one that I am recommending it to other expectant mothers, Before taking it, some days I suffered with neuralgia so badly that I thought I could not live, but after taking three bottle of Lydia E.Pinkham's Vegetable Compound I was entirely relieved of neuralgia, I had gained in strength and was able to go around and do all my housework. My baby when 7 months old weighed 19 pounds and I feel better than I have for a longtime. I never had any medicine do me so much good." Mrs. Pkasl Moithax, Mitchell, Ind. Good health durinetand after maternitv is a most important factor to both
