WILL OIL REPLACE
COAL ON BRITISH SHIPS
New Oil Areas Have Raised This New
Issue.

San Francisco, Cal, August 23.-Tne
British government has begun a sys-
rematic inquiry into the possibilities
Of petroleum as a substitute for coal
according to adyices from abroad re,
eiyed by the oil interests in this city
recently.
Tests already made have demon

The principal concern of officials is
over the fact that England, should oil

wise be subjected,
Estimates based on casual observa-
tons of the foreign experts place the
quantity needed for storage under
these circumstances from 100000
barrels upward. The immensely of the
undertaking is therefore apparent.
1t is pointed out by these authori-
ties that it would be necessary for tn
government to provide oil stations at
every point where it now has a coal
depot. A vast surplus would be re-
quired at every station The cost
would be of such proportions that the
process could only be gradual
Naturally the discussion of this sub
ject abroad has been stimulated by the
opening of the tremendous petroleum
deposits in California. IT is to thi.
state that Britain would look for it,

the most important before the Brit

Bridgeport. Conn August 22.-Can
dogs think? Did Charles Muner's
hounds know that he is a sausage man

The good people of Stratford are
puzzling over that question today, aud
the hounds are silent behind the stoln

lives upon farm in Stratford Neigh
bors lad been disturbed nightly by the
mournful baying of a number OF dogs.
Believing they were doing both the
dogs and themselves a good turn, they
appealed to Sheriff Charles Stage. of
Stafford, to visit the farm of the sau-
sage man.
TIE sheriff made a trip to the farm
today and found a number of dogs, in
Guiding several which were not regis
tered, These he took in charge and
placed in the pound. The animals at
once ceased giving vent to sounds o.
distress and showed every evidence Of
pleasure at becoming wards of the

PEROXIDE BLONDS

New York, August 22.-Quotations

up with rush yesterday when a COM

"Blond chorus men, and even those

agreed not to work for less than $3s

ket price. The reason is that the
demand is unprecedented and it is
chiefly due to the changing tastes Of
women in the audiences particularly
the young women. | cannot account
for the psychology of it. Possibly it
is because blond men are rare ana
women rush for anything that is the
least bizarre. Most likely, though, it
is because these men have more flash

who have been in the profession four
or five years and have always been
able TO get a position Lere- ofore, pace
Broadway in vain. Some have used
peroxide to land an engagement that
