to-day trying to track the "reds"

the country.
Sixteen of the most diaboli- j
cal infernal machines ever en-;
countered by experts were j
found, literally by chance, early
yesterday in the general post |
office in this city. Apparentlyj
they were identical with six

Standard Bread
Brings Back to Mind
Your Mother's Bread
Remember how good your mother's bread tasted?
You'll find that home-made flavor in STANDARD BREAD because the
same honest conscientious effort and pure ingredients have been put into
making it, just as your mother used to put into her own baking.
STANDARD BREAD—the new peace-time Bread, is the same, sweet,
wholesome, satisfying bread it was before the war. Crust and color perfect,
texture fine and smooth and delicious to the last crumb.
Truly the Bread worth buying. It's wrapped, by machine, with porous
parchment paper, at the ovens—it's absolutely clean.
Ask your grocer which Bread he's selling the most of He'll tell you

mails safely and were delivered
to the persons to whom they
were addressed. Fortunately,
however, none of the intended
victims has been injured thus
i far. How many others have
j been mailed no one can tell.
From all the information avail-
I able it is apparent the makers of the
| bombs hoped to exterminate every
one who has been prominently in
volved in the prosecution or depor
tation of members of the I. IV. YV.
Timed l'or May Day
Not only wore officers of the Im
migration Bureau marked for de
i struction, but also the authors of
I the bill which would have stopped
j immigration for a year. This meas
ure would have made it difficult for
I Russian radicals to gain access to
! this country.
Agents of the Department of Jus-
I tice said they believed the mailing
| of the bombs was timed to cause a
I reign of terror on May Day, ob
| served throughout the world not
j only by peaceful labor organizations
| but the most pronounced radicals.
It was recalled that radicals in this
I country had threatened a demon
' stration to-day in behalf of Thomas
J. Mooney, under sentence of life
imprisonment in California for mur
der in connection with the pre
paredness day bomb outrage. Labor
generally has advocated action of
some kind in his behalf, but has
frowned on radical ideas.
Mis. Mooney Talks
"We are not dynamiters and
bombers and our friends are not
bomb throwers," was the comment
of Mrs. Thomas J. Mooney last night
when told the details of the terror
ist plot. I
"I suppose, however, that by some |
circuitous mode of reasoning the of
ficials will reach the conclusion that
we had a hand in the affair."
Mrs. Mooney will speak at a
Mooney mass meeting here to-night.
The deductions of the government
' agents were based not only on the
i list of those who have received the
j t ombs addressed to them, but the
! names on the wrappers of the in
! fernal machines seized in the Post
! Office here.
Mayor Ole Hanson, of Seattle. ,
i Wash., who brought to a sudden end ;
I the "general strike" instituted by 1
| the I. W. W. in the Washington 1
city, was the first to receive one of
' the deadly packages.
Former Senator Thomas W. Hard-
eighty-five years old and for the
past twenty-two years have used
Bliss Native Herb Tablets when
needed. I live alone, do my own
housework, and thank you for your
wonderful prescription, for it is due
to them that 1 am able to do my
own work."
It you feel run-down, fatigued or
have no appetite, take Bliss Native
Herb Tablets, and you will be
agreeably surprised at the improve
ment in your condition. ' One tablet
at night will make the next day
bright.
Bliss Native Herb Tablets are put
up in a yellow box of 2uo tablets.

Honor York Mail—The House of
Representatives adjourned yester
day as a compliment to Representa
tive Thomas E. Rrooks, of York
I county, who was celebrating a birth
p:
tigated propaganda, that New York
anarchists had planned in 1914.
shortly before the outbreak of the
World War, to wipe out the fam
ilies of Mr. Rockefeller and other I
wealthy persons. Mr. Rockefeller
also aroused the animosity of radi- ,
cals in connection with the labor j
troubles in Colorado.
The reasons for placing Mr. Mor- I
gan on the list are move obscure. So i
far as known he has taken no hand j
in. the efforts to put an end to the
activities of the I. W. W. and other
extreme radicals, but the reds na
turally hate him because of his
great wealth. At his Glen Cove '
home last night he declined to com- I
ment on the mailing of a bomb to I
him.
i Government officers made no at
tempt to minimize the seriousness of |
the situation. They admitted frankly
they had no idea how many of the i
! bombs had been mailed, ali appar
; ently wrapped in paper purporting
' to come from the department store '
j of Gimbel Brothers in this city, but i
declared by members of that firm
| never to have been in their estab- l
lishment. It was pointed out that
fourteen of the infernal machines
i had been held up in post offices |
I along the Pacific coast.
Postmasters Notified
The Post Office Department has I
I sent a general alarm to postmasters
, all over the United States, directing
; them to watch the malls carefull
i for packages similar to those seized i
here. Inspectors in different parts j
of the country have been set at wors I
<gi the different angles of the plot.
Chief Inspector William E. Coch- I
ran, of the Post Office Department, j
took charge of the investigation in I
this city. His operations have ex- I
panded until they include a score of j
j agents of the Deartment of Justice, j
Police Inspector Faurot and scores
of New York detectives, members of I
the police "bomb squad," and Chief j
Inspector Dixon and Inspector Egan.
of the Bureau of Combustibles of '
the Fire Department. One of the !
Department of Justice men at work
on the case is Finch, to whom one !
of the bombs was addressed.
Detectives who know all the !
prominent anarchists and radicals in 1
New York are rounding them up i
and questioning them in the hope j
of obtaining some helpful clues. An '
especially careful watch was being )
kept on the known haunts of I. W.
