Although the present walkout is declared by both brotherhood and company officials not to be a meana of enforcing wage increase demands, the Roneral trend of conversation among the employes during the day showed that there was a peneral dLsHati.ifaction. According to a prominent member of the South Hend local of the brotheri-ood the wage .standard is far below the scale in force in other lines of activities. Tho -'iK paid at the local otfice is as follows: Ca.shier, $12 0; drivers, 500 to $9 3; freight callers. $3 3; bill clerks. $100 to $125: checkers. $33; sheet reviser, $100, on hand clerk, JiOO to $105; money clerk, $100, and platform men, $30. The above figures represent the monthly wage of a 363 day year. Determine! to Stick. Although members of the brotherhood voiced their determination to ".-tick to the flnfoh" the walkout was conducted without tho leat sign of disorder and all appearances tended to bear out an early announcement that vlölonc or rowdyism would not be tolerated.

Evidence that the storm which visited St. Joseph county Sunday .afternoon was u real "prairie twister" as that term is understood in Kans js w-s emphasized ly its freakish antics. For instance when the residence of Clyde Van Riper. Twin lira rich, was moved from its foundation six kefrs were left undisturbed in the cellar. A large crowd Is reported to have gathered and offered their assistance in moving the house back on Its foundation. Mr. Van Riper told the Samaritans, however, the keirs wie all "empties." and the crowd dispcrn-d. A table nearly as large as the door was blown through the doorway and into the kitchen of George Jviing. The same gust of wind took the roof from the kitchen. luting's garage was moved from around his a utomobile. Wreckage from the demolished
