OLD AcQUAINTANCES
Meet Unexpectedly at the Union
Station.

Officer Jack McDonough, who pa
trolls the West End, enjoyed Ilath-
er unusual experience in meeting an
old friend at the Union Station Mon
day. John Phillips, of Ironton, VINO
was an old friend of the patrolman
in his early days was enroute from
his home town TO Lima to be in at
tendance at the G.. A. r. encamp-
ment and changed trains at this
point. After twenty years of sep
Iaration the soldier and the cop"
got together aud an old time talk
was enjoyed.
Officer Jack is possessed with a
good memory and he recognized his
old friend at once, while the soldier
through age was unable to see in
the patrolman the friend of younger
days. After inquiring the way OF
the peacemaker, according to the us
ual custom the soldier was about 10
turn away when the two recognized
old time friends and until the Lima
train arrived the two enjoyed con-
lversation. The reunion was COM
plete and was rarely hearty for the
two friends, who had 90 long been
separated, although the closest chums
in former days.

MAY RE-EMPLOY
MIR. P. S. WILSON
Building Inspectors Report
Makes 1t Necessary.
Some One is Needed to Oversee the
Changes Which were
Recommended.

The members of the local board OF
education, since the regular meeting
last Monday evening, have been
thinking over the needs of the va
rious school buildings of the city
and for the greater part they are of
the opinion that although the propo-
sItion to employ a superintendent OF
such work failed TO carry, the action
should be reconsldered. Since the
action OF the board In dlsmissing Sup
erintendent p. s. Wilson 1t has be-
come evident to the board members
that to comply full with the re-
Quirements of the state inspector,
a manager must be employed. AS a
result Mr.. Wilson will no doubt be
re-employed at the board meeting of
next Monday evening.
Mr.. Wilson has been notified that
he will stand very good chance for
the position here and that he should
consider this before taking up new
work. which has been offered him
One member of the board has ev-
Ipressed himself as having no proper
knowledge of the conditions. when
he voted against the measure.

COUNCIL
IS CUN-SnY
New Lid Ordinance Present
ed to the City Dads.
ACTION IS DEFERRED
Garbage Crematory Needs
Some Repairs.
Safety Board Is Authorized to
Cut Down its Rxpenscs-City
Borrows Money.

RmembeIing the disastrous tor
mination OF the former lid ordin-
ances the city council put its Off
oial foot down hard last night when
an ordinance was introduced re-
quirins saloonists to remove all
screens and obstruction from in
front of their bars and to keep a
Light burning after closing hours.
Council refused to even pass the
measure to its second reading
The ordinance was prepared by
IClty Solicitor Elmer T. Boyd. MIR.
Boyd told the council that the one
which was passed several months
ago had failed TO hold water in the
courts. He said that he had pre-
pared the new ordinance and will
guarantee that II will be upheld by
any court in the state.
But the councilmen were not in
clined to try another attempt at
putting on the lid and they side
tracked the ordinance which will be
read Tor the second time at the
next meeting What final action will
be taken by council is problemati-
cal
1t was learned by council last
might that the sewage disposal
pplant is in "A rather deplorable con-
dition. The furnace is being used to
its capacity in handling the garbage
of the city and the result is that
ii is in need of extensive repairs
if 1t Is to keep abreast of the needs
of the city. II will be necessary to
repair the furnace and to place
steel Joists around it, the wooden
joists which are now being used
having become charred by close
proximity to the fire box.
An ordinance declaring II neces-
sary TO issue bonds in the sum of
$1.225 was introduced and provoked
a lengthy discussion. Council had
understood that 1t was not to take
more ;han $1,000 to repair the plant
an most Of the members wanted to
know about it. The explanation was
given by the city solicitor who said
that the additional amount was to
pay for a drain that had been put
in recently. Council decided to let
the drain wait and adopted the
ordnance providing for the issuance
.Ot bonds in the sum OF $1,000 for
the repairs needed. The bonds will
bear four per cent interest.
The auditor and the mayor were
authorized TO issue two notes. each
for $500 TO the City National Bank
The notes will be due In fouV
months and will baar six per cen,
interest, The first notes will pay
for the paving of Mary street and
for sidewalks while the second will

to two or three Of the smaller Eastern
States. 1t is true however, that most
Of the coal territory of these States
is underlaid by low grade Ignite, and
hence the fields are not so important
as their areas would indicate The
same is true of North Dakota. which
includes an extremely large area of
coal territory, but the fuel is wholly
Ignite and of comparatively little
value
If the present rate of coal consump-
ton should be maintained from now
on, the coal of the United States would
last nearly 1000 years. On the other
hand, the increasing rate of coal con-
sumption in the United States is an
alarming factor in considering the fu-
ture supply. The rate of increase is
enormous, the amount produced in each
decade since 1916 being equal to the
entire previous consumption. The
amount of coal consumed in the ten
years from 1916 to 1925 was about 315.-
$50 short tons. In the ten years from
1896 to 1905 the consumption was over
1852, 599,452 short tons.
If the consumption of coal continues
to increase in the future as fast as it
has in the past, the supply will be ex-
hausted in about 100 years.
