LOG BOOK

The NJ. N. S. S. Wilhelmina left port
this morning for San Francisco after
an eyentful stay in Honolulu. It was
whilst this vessel was still in quaran-
tine that several members of the crew
escaped to the shore only to be appre-
hended by the police upon their re-
turn to the boat. They were then
sent to the quarantine grounds where
they are still detained At the CON
clusion Of the quarantine period it is
probable that these men will be hailed
before the police court and charged
with evading the regulations. The
matter rests with the Federal author
tiles but it is considered certain that
legal steps will be taken to make an
example of these men in order to pre-
vent a similar occurrence in the fu-
ture. The Captain of the Wilhelmina
had little difficulty in filling the vacant
positions on board SO that when the
vessel pulled out this morning she
had her full complement on board.

the city, but stll there is work in
many a home for a man who will do
odd jobs.
Better than aimlessly answering ads
would il be to make a study of the
kind Of work men in middle life, or
past IT, do, and then try TO get some
thing Of the kind to do.
The country Is, no doubt, the place
for the man i'm circumstances like
this correspondent The country is
more kind to elderly folks than the ci-
ty. A little home can usually be rent
ed for less. A garden and a few
chickens will help reduce living ex-
penses. One can live on much less
in the country than in the city, and
workers are scarce in the country,
whereas the city is crowded with
them.
When one has reached the age line
in his present work, there is no use
in trying to step over it. 1t is a dead
line SO far as he is concerned. He
is simply wasting effort to try to in
duce employers TO take him. He
might as well accept the fact that this
world is closed to him and face about
and study occupations which, perhaps.
before, he has never thought of, but
which become now, new fields for him
to explore.

An ODD CHARACTER
Arkansas Man for Fifty Years
Has Scorned to Wear
Any Coats.
FIRM Believer IN HATS

Prescott, Ark, May 19.-"The man
without coat" has just celebrated his
73rd birthday anniversary. He signs
his name NJ. Osborn. but in this COM
munity. which has never seen him with
a coat or without his hat on for nearly
half century, Osborn is known as
1.-The man without a coat
Forty-six years ago he bought a coat,
a navy blue garment, cut in what was
then the latest style. He got it to
wear at his wedding He had worn 1t
only three times since. two Of the occa.
sions being subsequent weddings and
the third occasion being the coolest
night he ever saw" eleven years ago.
In his entire life he has not worn out
he says, more than two coats. "The
next time wear coat I will wear 1t
long time" is the grim determination
expressed by Osborn.
The following are some reasons why
Osborn is entitled to be called the most
eccentric man in Arkansas:
He never removes his hat except
when going to bed and when eating
with strangers. His hat is the first
thing he puts on in the morning.
He has not worn an overshirt but a
dozen times in twenty years.
He drinks no fntoxicants.
He has chewed tobacco for sixty-five
years.
He never smokes.
He drinks black coffee and eats hos
and corn bread
He has heard two sermons only In
the past fifteen years.
Osborn is a carpenter. He was borr
in Jackson county. Tenn, and has liv
ed in Arkansas since before the war
He talks freely about his custom. HI.
sole reason for going coatless. he says
is that he considers the garment unnec
essary He says he is healthier thar
he would be II he wore coat.
In support Of his contention thai
coatlessness means healthfulness ht
says he has never had a headache ane
has not had fever since 1862. Hi
says he never feels tough" after aris
ing in the morning. He eats thre.
meals a day and is not faddist con
corning his food excepting that it mus
be simple fare.
Osborn's fourth wife died July las
and he is the father Of boy baby two
and half years old.

HOW THEY BUY COAL
Methods Employed by the Pur-
chasing Agents of the
u. S. Government.
BIOLOGISTS ARE USEFUL

Washington, d. c., May 19.-The
United States government buys about
$1OOO,OOO worth of coal every year
for use in the navy. in ppublic build
ings in Washington and other cities,
and for other purposes, about one-third
for use In the navy, in public build
ings-on specifications under which
prices are fixed according to the value
or quality of the coal delivered by the
successful bidder.
A definite standard of quality for
the coal thus purchased is specified by
each bidder, and this standard is con-
s1dered in awarding the contract. II
the value of the coal furnished is be-
low the standard fixed a discount is
made from the contract price; II its
value is above the standard an allow
ance is made for the excess of value
and proper sum is paid in addition to
the contract price. The value is deter
mined by tests and analyses made by
the Geological Survey on samples TAX
en- from the coal furnished by the con-
tractor.
These analyses and tests show the
quality of the coal in terms of fixed
carbon, volatile matter, sulphur, ash
and moisture, and especially its heat
ing value in British thermal units, as
determined by calorimetric tests.
Until within few years the agents
of the government, in buying coal, re-
lied upon the integrity of the dealer
and the reputation OF the mine or dis
trict from which the coal was obtained
and these formed the only possible as.
surance that the coal was equal in
quality to the grade to be furnished
The new method has been so successful
that it will probably be gradually ex-
tended to cover larger share of the
governments fuel supply.
A full statement of this method of
buying coal is contained in recent
bulletin OF the United States Geological
Survey bulletin 42S), entitled THE
purchase OF coal by the government un-
der specifications. with analyses Of coal
