trucking industry is assuming large
proportions. and one orchard of 20. 900

Three Of the largest coal operators in
West Virginia were in Huntington yes
tercay for a brief consultation. A meet
inE OF all the coal operators In West
Virginia will be held soon to consider
the situation.
The mines in the Flat Top and Elk
horn territory are not being operated
with full forces, and II is the same way
in the other fields. This slack is not
due to a shortage In miners. but TO
competition In New England from Nova
Scotia coal. which now comes in on the
free list. The operators IN West Vir-
giLia claim there has been an advance
in freight rates on all railroads and
transports. as well as an advance in the
mining rate.

A dog belonging TO Hercules Tyrius
was one day walking along the sea-
shore when he found and ate<a mufex,
species of shellfsh. Returning to
his master. the latter noticed that the
dogs lips were tingcd with color, and
in this manner Tyrian purple was dis
covered. The color was used in the
robes of emperors and mobiles, and the
expression born to the purple" meant
that the person was of high birth. 1t
is strange to think that the favorite
color of royalty can be traced to the
curiosity or hunger Of the dog of Tyre.
