Kentucky Coal Operations in 1908.

Washington, Aug. 30.--Kentucky
coal mining operations for 1908 were
attended by both decrease In pro-
duction and decline in the price per
ton, according to the United StaNs
Geological Survey The States total
production of coal was 10,246,553 short
tons, with a spot value of $10.3l7 ,162.
There was a falling off of 5O6,o7l
short tons, decrease in value Of ST.
0S7, $40 and decline IN average price
of s1.06 to $1.01.
The States coal mines gave en-
ployment to 16,99S men in that year,
but, according to official figures, the
number of working days was reduc-
ed from 21O in 1907 to 1856 in 1908. 1t
is pointed out as an interesting fac
tor In this connection that more than
two-thirds of the coal mining opera
tions in Kentucky are conducted on
the non-,inion basis and in consequence
the eight-hour day is not so generally
observed as in other coal mining
States.
The steady improvement in the pro-
ductive capacity per employee for each
day has been due in large degree, ii
is declared. to the increased use OF
coal mining machinery. The machine
mined product increased from 2,s4S,-
sos short tons in 1903 to 5,2o2, 1853
short tons in 1908.
When mining first began it is es-
timated the original coal supply in
the State was more than $4,000 ,OOO,-
900 short tons. From this original
supply, it is said. only two-tentls
of per cent. has been mined.

and as these descend from the noun
tains and flow out upon the plains,
all the features of the Swiss wind
are developed. The warm and dry
wind thus produced over a belt of
country along the foot of the noun
tains is called the chinook"
A legendary tale has it that the
term chinook as applied to these pc
culiar winds came into general use
among the residents along the Will
lamette and Columbia rivers many
years ago in this wise: Becoming
weary Of padding up the river in
canoes, the Chinook Indians fell in
to the habit of waiting for their
boats with a strip of sail attached, TO
be propelled by the wind. The only
sort of blow which would accom-
plish this was the kind now referred
to as the chinook. When it would
begin to stir at a rather lively rate
the resident would remark: Now
watch out for the Chinooks." Hence
the origin of the name.-Portland

long chums and daughters of veal

seized almost simultaneously with
symptoms Of appendicitis while they

Miss Gaylord and Miss Alexander,
each accompanied by her mother,
came to Utica hospital on the advice
of physicians and prepared to sub
NIT to the knife.
At the hospital the question arose
between the girls as to who should
be operated upon first. Though both
were suffering great pain, they fl
nally agreed to flip a coin to see
which should he first 10 undergo the
ordeal A nurse tossed the coin and
Miss Alexander lost. She was oper-
ated on early in the day. and an hour
later Miss Gaylord went under the
surgeons knife. Both are expected

MONKEY WORKS AS VALET.
He's the Real Thing, Saws Student at
Pennsylvania.

Philadelphia.-Monkeys Tor val
cts! That is the newest idea at the
University of Pennsylvania.
Its originator is Wendell Eckard.
senior medical student. who h5es i'm
Craig house, and ne has experiment.
ed to the stage where he is ready to
declare that the monkey is the ideal
servant. inexpensive and always
prompt and on the job
Eckard, who is captain of the fenc-
ing team, is not advocating his idea
to any extent. There are certain re-
strictlons imposed by the faculty,
which forbid the keeping of live pets
in the rooms of the students.
But a few nights ago the dormitory
was set in an uproar by the sound Of
a piano at o'clock in the morning
coming from Eckerd's room, and the
investigation which followed result
ed in unearthing the monkey.
The monkeys house is the fire
place in Eckard's room. A wire
door keeps the animal valet confin-
ed when not on duty. and a curtain
hung in front of the door keeps him
hidden. A string attached to the top
of the door runs through a pulley di-
rectly over the bed in which Eckard
sleeps.
When the alarm clock rings to
rouse the sleeping student in the NOR
ming, Eckard pulls on the string The
door raises and the monkey Is at lib
erty. According to other students
who have seen the valet at work, he
at once closes the window and opens
the steam heater. Then he takes his
masters shoes and blackens them
easily. This is not merely monkey
shine; It is one OF the valets duties.
There are numberless things which
the monkey does. Eckard is said to
have bought 1t for $40. The opinion
of those who have seen the handi-
work of the monkey is that he is in
expensive, capable and an altogether
to be desired servant.-New York
