SENSATIONAL INVESTIGATION
Charles E. Hughes Will Take Up
the Coal Roads.

Washington.-Unless the plans of the
government go wrong entirely there
will be before long a sensational inves-
tigation of the coal roads, which will
attract as much attention throughout
the country in its way as the inquiry
into the insurance companies did.
1t will be run by the same man, and
if he has luck the coal roads will be
compelled to come into court and pro-
duce ali their books and secret records
to prove the existence of a combination
to control the price of coal in defiance
of law.
Charles E. Hughes, who made such \
splendid success with the insurance IN
vestigation, is to be given q free hand
in the prosecution of the coal carrying
railroads. Immunity or no immunity,
he will be instructed to get at the facts,
and it is the belief of the government
officials that under recent decisions Of
the supreme court, he will be enabled
to go into the whole business of the Goa
road combination.

Annapolis, Md.-Reverently attended
loved and served so we'll, by the ambas-
sadOrial representative of the land in
which he died, by the chief executive
of the state beneath whose sod his
bones will find their final resting place,
by naval representatives of the United
States and France, and by thousands of
men and women of the country whose
first admiral he was, the remains of
John Paul Jones were today placed in
the crypt beneath the grand marble
stairway of the Bancroft Hall, there to
rest until the completion of the chapel
in which they are to be deposited.
Crowds, such as Annapolis has no;
known for many years, if ever before,
lined the streets and stood expectantly
about the road station long before the
train bearing President Roosevelt,
members of the cabinet, the French
ambassador and a large number of dis
tinguished naval officers and civil dig
nitaries was expected.
AS President Roosevelt entered the
grounds a national salute of 81 guns
doomed out from the old U. U. S. Hart
ford, once the flagship of Admiral Far
ragut. Drawn up opposite the resi-
dence of the superintendent to receive
the head of the nation was the marine
battalion and naval academy band.

HIS KIND CAME IN PUNCHES
Then Hubby Was Sorry He Had
Taken Any Interest in
~ Dreams.

Some time ago, in New York city, a
man was wakened in the night to find
his wife weeping, un~controllably, relates
Harper's Magazine.
My darling" he said, in distress,
what is the NATTER"
"A DREAM" she gasped. 81 have had
such a horrible dream"
Her husband begged her to tell it to
him, in order that he might comfort her.
After long persuasion she was induced
to say this:
II thought 1 was walking down Broad
way, and l came to a warehouse, where
there was a large placard, Husbands for
Sale, You could get beautiful ones tor
s 1900, and very nice ones for as low az
$780,"
The husband asked, innocently: did
you see any that looked like me?"
The sobs became strangling. Dozens
of them," gasped the wife, done up in
punches, like asparagus, and sold for ten
cents a bunch"
