Trainman Finds Fortune
on Way to Day's Work
Pottsville, Aug. 27. —Examining a
strange looking package, which on
second thought, hte picked up In
the streets of this place, while on
his way to work, yesterday morn
ing, S. W. Downs, a widely known
Pennsylvania Railroad conductor
found it contained unregistered
Liberty bonds in the amount of
$6,600, $2,100 worth of checks and
a diamond stick pin. A small slip
in the parcel bore the name of the
owner. Miss Ida M. McQuaido, of
Pottsville.
Downs tucked the valuable pack
age under his arm and proceeded
on his way to work.
It was shortly after the break of
day he came upon -.the package
lying on the pavement. Conductor
Downs said. He kicked it aside and
after walking on a few steps, turn
ed and picked it up to satisfy his
curiosity.
Downs announced he intended
returning the parcel to Its owner
upon his return from his run to
Pottsville.
Owing to the fact that all of the
Liberty bonds in the package were
not registered they could easily have
been converted to the private use of
the finder.

RURAL CARRIERS
AIR GRIEVANCES
Forty-Five From Two Coun
ties Want Burdens Made
Easier By Department
Gettysburg, Pa., Aug. 27. —Rural
mail carriers to the number of 45
from York and Adams counties met
here to discuss several matters that
will be brought before the coming
State meeting of the rural men, the
questions being presented by tlie
members from this congressional
district. The two questions are, tin:
securing of suitable substitujes when
one of the carriers is forced to be
off duty and the establishment of a
maintenance fund. The carriers
who Pavel the country roads for
Uncle Sam believe that substitute
carriers should have the preference
when legulur appointments are to
be made and it is this lack of giving
the substitutes a chance that is
making it difficult for the men to
secure substitutes. They also claim
they are the only Government em
ployes who are compelled to furnish
their own equipment, and the ex
pense to them in this item_ is such
that the position of rural mall car
rier Is becoming almost undesirable.
